Sumitra immediately hugged him and said while crying
" big brother everything well be alright we will try our best to survive and find what happened to our dad."
Santosh wiped her tears and said,
*In assuring voice*
"You don't have to worry about it.

After saying that santosh went to school.
*The sun was blazing hot.*

"Rishi bro how is you animal ngo going?"santosh asked.
"We are going to expand it even more,You know that i love to help poor living things."Rishikesh replied.
They were talking about a their science project and suddenly someone screamed " An old lady fainted help someone!!" when santosh heard that he ran without hesitating in that direction to help her.
He was able to save her in time and admit her in the hospital.
After talking with the doctor he left the hospital and went in the college.
At the evening Santosh and sumitra went to check on the old woman.The old woman looked shocked.
"By any chance do you know Dr vikas chauhan??",Santosh got shocked without hesitating he yelled with excitement ," YES!!! Thats my fathers name do you know him?"he asked as if his life depends on it.
The old woman asked him to calm down for a moment."I was an assistant of dr Vikas.We were working on something bizzare called the drop of the dead.It was a manuscript found in a mysterious pot by our archaeological team."she told santosh all about that experiment.
The old women suggested santosh to visit his father's lab atleast once. he will find something in it.
*After few hours*
The moon was shining in the sky and the temperature was cold. The stars were adding life to the sky. The night was full of joy and happiness.There were a lot of people having family moment and among that crowd was our Santosh.
He was heading towards his fathers lab.
He saw the same old woman outside the lab waiting for him."aren't you going to come in?"she asked",he replied yeah let's go.
The old woman opened the lock and they both got inside. The lab was filled with dust because it wasn't opened for 12 years.
"We should've got the mask" both said at the same time.
Thankfully the lights in the lab were working fine.There were all kinds of specimen of animals and insects.
There was a rock inscription placed carefully on the table and a research diary beside it.
