Chapter 15 - Quest Unlocked

It was quite astonishing for me .I felt kind of unique ,so it was decided by me to keep it a secret from others until I know what it actually is.

Soon we were about to set out for the hunt. We were led to the weapon section where different kinds of weapon were kept .

"AWESOME!! ",

it was something which I had only seen in movies also around it by guns and lasers . It was a different kind of feeling, the feeling that I went that I had when I was saw the weapon section in the organisation. I choose one of my best and my favourite weapon the laser glisk. It was take made with the help of nanotechnology ,which can work like laser - cutting anything into two whenever wanted . It could also be used as a normal stick for fighting when switched to off mode . It was most popularly known as 'unbreakable glistening stick '. I was very well trained in this happen and had mastered it long ago .

Everyone else too choose their mastered weapon and we were soon out for completing the challenges. The first highlighted area shown was a Game Arena who level type mentioned was hard. I was curiously waiting for the surprises which we were going to witness.

"It is an alarm of danger to all of us ,as all of you all have already experienced " Kat said to the whole team .

This was meant meant to be different . Dangerous should be a better word to use in this place .

Reaching the arena we learned there were about 10 to 12 teams with us who were going to compete in this game . Though all the team was send in different cabinets to complete this level ,they had already announced the difficulty level was medium. Without much concern we went inside our cabinet though we had a feeling of something unfavorable.

As we entered the room our faces illuminated by the faint glow of a single hanging bulb. The air is thick with dust and tension as we found ourselves trapped within the decaying structure.

As we were frantically searching for an exit, a foreboding voice echoes through the empty space, freezing us in their tracks. The voice speaks of a dire challenge: solve a riddle within a time limit, or face impending doom.

TIME LIMIT: 10 MINUTES

We gathered around a weathered table upon which a cryptic message is etched. With furrowed brows and racing hearts, I read aloud:

"I speak without a mouth and hear without ears. I have no body, but I come alive with the wind. What am I?"

Our minds race as we desperately try to decipher the enigma, knowing that failure was not an option. As the clock ticks mercilessly, we exchanged fervent theories, each word tinged with urgency.

Panic threatens to suffocate us, but determination fueled our resolve. We had only one chance to enter correct answer if not all of us would die. There was a Chaos in all of the team .

"Echo", I suggested an answer .

"It must the answer."

"How are you so sure about it?", a guy named Karl asked.

"Have you ever seen ECHO ?"

"No, right?"

"Because it has no shape or body."

"But it is there like air, alive in the wind.Echo speaks in the form of reflection."

"Logical enough."Kat exclaimed.

All of us were scared as I entered the answer and the moment I confirmed.....

"Your answer is correct" a voice spoke.

"Huhhhh! Finally." I screamed as the riddle was solved.

Everyone gave a sigh of relief.

A beat of hushed anticipation passes before the sound of a lock clicking fills the air. The heavy metal doors swing open, revealing the path to freedom.

"Hey see, the door seems to lead us to an underground tunnel " Xiara exclaimed

"What how are we going to get out of here?" Kat questioned.

It was an obvious question. All of us had thought that after solving the riddle we would be released . It was not happening. Still we decided to go underground to check what was happening.

It is quite difficult to describe that place because the light was dim.Soon we felt smoke wrapping all around us .

Suddenly my personal info popped in front of my face.
