Chereads / The Tale of the Varma's / Chapter 2 - The Present

Chapter 2 - The Present

It's early morning and Vikram wokeup from the sleep with the same nightmare as any other day but this time he shouted a little loud and his mother and brother came running.

What happened ? Mother asked

' That nightmare again ' Vikram replied

' We are going to a doctor no more comments '

The elder brother Sakvith Varma came and sat beside Vikram and asked him to tell what exactly he saw in the dream .

" It was completely dark at first and when I turned around I saw a sword which is on fire and the corpses that surrounding the sword and It felt like as that sword was calling me " . Sakvith looked like he knew what his brother was talking about.

Vikram went to the college it was just like any other day in the college but he kept seeing the sword wherever he goes.

When he came home after the college his brother gave him a journal and told Vikram that its a time capsule left by the first person in their family to the first born brothers in the family and he will also know the reason for those nightmares . He began reading it

" It was raining on that day in my world and my brother casted a spell which made me fall here I can go back but to see my brother dead and feeling the guilt I decided not to go and I thought it was boon for me given by the god but I know that one day two brothers will be born and then will be the time for them to return to that world . If you're reading this letter then probably the time has come the only thing I want say to the one's reading the letter is Never pity the dead pity the living . And the way to go that world can be found in your dreams .

LOOK FOR WHAT CANNOT BE SEEN AND U SHALL FIND WHAT U SHOULD". Vikram was both confused and amazed and asked Sakvith what it means to look for that cannot be seen . Sakvith said You will find the answer yourself. Vikram went to sleep thinking about the journal and the same nightmare started again he was afraid at first but he remembered the journal and started looking for something he moved towards the burning sword and he tried to climb that mountain of corpses and as he was almost there a hand of the corpse catched his feet and every corpse started to drag him down he was afraid and wokeup from the sleep . It was 2 am in the morning and he took the journal again and read it again ' Look For What Cannot Be Seen '.He went to sleep again but he thinks he knows what he should looking for and went to sleep and in the nightmare he went into the dark opposite to the sword looking for something at first he couldn't see anything but then he saw a ray of light and followed it and the next minute he was on a bridge it was bright but couldn't see a thing because of the fog that surrounding him and he heard a voice from behind .

" Is this your first time here " Anurakti asked .

Vikram kept looking at her wondering what's going on and thinking if it's a dream or not

" It's not a dream anymore it's real " Anurakti said and pinched him . Vikram felt the pain and he became sure that it's real and he asked " Where am I " ?

" Welcome to Sambhala , I'm Anurakti and you are ? "

" Nice to meet you I'm Vikram " they shook hands

" Vikram what ? "

" Vikram Varma "

Her eyes became bigger and she asked ' Are you the brother of Sakvith Varma '

' Yes '

' Ok I think I should take leave nice to meet you ' and she almost ran away. Vikram kept looking at her run thinking what happened and group of people came and one of them who seems to be the leader of the group came and kneeled before him and said

' Welcome sir we have been waiting for your arrival ' . Vikram was wondering who these people are and why she ran away.
