Chapter 7 - Chapter 6. Enter The SheeshMehal

SheeshMehal (The Palace of Glass or Mirros) is one of the tourist place and monuments in Lahore. The place is visited by many when they visit the city of Lahore.

"Did you find out which way did they enter?" Mehdi asked Sikandar while looking at the SheeshMehal.

"According to the information we got they entered into a mirror in the palace." Sikandar told Mehdi while looking for something in the trunk of the car.

"How are we supposed to find a mirror when this whole place is made up of mirrors? And what are you trying to find in the trunk?" Mehdi asked Sikandar but before Sikandar was able to answer the question of Mehdi Gul-e-Noor called them out as she came out of the palace.

"Did you find anything?" Mehdi asked Gul-e-Noor who replied by nodding her head in positive.

"Oh! What is it that Miss fairy found?" Sikandar asked while smiling like a mad man.

Gul-e-Noor ignored her and told them that she found a mirror which is really strange and they should check it out as it might be the mirror which others went through.

"How did you know they went through the mirror?" Mehdi asked suspiciously.

"I have great hearing. I was able to hear everything you guys were saying out here." Gul-e-Noor replied to Mehdi's question after which Mehdi looked towards Sikandar and gestured to him to move quickly so that they find others quickly before something happens to them.

Three of them got inside the palace and went towards the strange looking mirror. While standing Infront of it Mehdi moved his hand towards it to find that his hand was able to move through the mirror to a different place. Mehdi looked towards the other two and entered into the mirror and he was soon followed by Sikandar and Gul-e-Noor entering the mirror.

As Mehdi got inside the mirror and looked around he found that he was inside a cave or more likely a tunnel underground which was built by that something which placed the mirror in the palace. After looking around he suddenly realized that it was too quiet and unusual for Sikandar to not speak at all. Just as he turned his head back to look behind him he was shocked that there was no one behind him and it was a natural cave wall Infront of him.

He stared at the wall for some time instead of getting frieghtened to figure out that there might be more than one cave and other two got into another cave or the others did not enter the cave at all. After thinking of these probabilities he turned to see the way forward as he understood that there is no way to go back but only to go forward.

As he turned around and saw the path infront of him did he realize that it was pitch black infront of him and he did not even notice it when he got into the cave for a while he was looking around for some reason. The place where he was standing was lit by an kerosene oil lantern hanging from the wall of the cave which helped him observe his surrounding.

He removed the lantern from the wall and held it Infront of him to light up the cave Infront as he moved forward.

"Well why are there so many mice in this place." Sikandar shouted to Gul-e-Noor while running in the cave as they were being chased by a huge number of mice.

"Look at the environment around you it's one of the best places for them to live and they were living peacefully until you came and started disturbing their life." Gul-e-Noor replied while also running with Sikandar.

"Well I was just joking around with them. I didn't know they would become angry like this." Sikandar said "By the way where is Mehdi we haven't seen him since we entered the cave."

Gul-e-Noor also looked confused as to why Mehdi was not there with them but at present both of them were in a difficult situation themselves they could only think about Mehdi once they are safe themselves.

After running for more than 20 minutes they realized that the mice were not chasing after them.

"You are really good at running." Sikandar said to Gul-e-Noor while trying to catch his breath after the chase.

"You too"Gul-e-Noor was huffing as she spoke "I don't know why they stopped chasing us but we should be alert from now on as there might be many things more dangerous than them in this place and we should also not forget that we are separated from Mehdi."

After they were done catching their breath they looked around to find out that it was really dark in here and that they were running in the dark without any light source and made it out somehow. But the situation was fire as they had no light to see anything.

In the dire situation Gul-e-Noor stretched her palm to do something but nothing happened. "Why is it not working?"

"What is not working." Sikandar asked Gul-e-Noor where she replied "I am not able to make fire by my power" while saying this she held her other hand out too but nothing happened "How could it be my powers are not working here."
