Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: The Unveiling Unknown

After the storm had passed, a profound silence settled over the hostel room. The air felt different—charged with an unfamiliar energy. The roommates exchanged glances, a mix of relief and confusion in their eyes. Had it all been a momentary, bizarre disturbance?

Gavi, the ever-curious one, approached the door. With a slow turn of the doorknob, he pushed the door open, revealing the world outside. But what greeted him was anything but familiar. The cityscape they had known so well was absent, replaced by a landscape that seemed to belong to another realm.

Gasps of astonishment filled the room as his roommates gathered around him. They blinked in disbelief, their eyes widening at the vibrant hues that painted the horizon. This wasn't Delhi; this wasn't Earth. It was as if they had been transported to a land from their wildest dreams.

The sky above was a mesmerizing tapestry of colors—blues that shifted to purples and oranges, creating a breathtaking spectacle. The air was tinged with a scent of unfamiliar flowers, and a gentle breeze carried a melody of unseen birds.

As they marveled at the scenery, a curious sensation crept over them. A high-pitched sound—almost imperceptible at first—began to resonate in the air, growing in intensity. The roommates exchanged uneasy glances, hands instinctively moving to cover their ears.

Then, as if in response to the sound, an intense headache surged through their minds. A collective groan filled the air as the pain bore down, overwhelming and all-encompassing. The world around them blurred, and their consciousness slipped into an unsettling haze.

One by one, they succumbed to the overpowering sensation, collapsing to the ground as unconsciousness claimed them. The vibrant colors of the alien world dimmed, and all that remained was an enigmatic and eerie quiet.
