The Secrets of the Elements

Chapter 22: Into Another Dimension

"Where are we?" said Rutuja as she got up from the rugged ground.

Rishi looked at the black leaves hanging from the timid trees that surrounded them. He dusted the wet mud from his hands and jeans. The twigs crunched under their feet.

Daksh scanned the place.

The trees were malady-brown. The musty air was difficult to breathe.

They stood in the middle of an umber-brown ancient forest. It reeked of age. Every sprawling tree they passed through reminded them of a watchful guardian.

"Why do I feel like these trees are staring at me?" Rutuja whispered as they walked through the forest.

"It feels like a different dimension," said Rishi as he jumped, escaping a ditch in his way.

The further they went, the more mystical and spellbinding it became.

They arrived at a wide glade, where the trees began to disappear, revealing the bespeckled sky.

"Wherever we are," said Rutuja. "We need to get back home."

"Daksh, the ring can help," said Rishi. His eyes fell on his reflection in the water. He closed his eyes at once and stepped back.

Daksh tossed the ring in the air.

"No, that's not possible," he said as it hit the ground.

"Nothing happened?" said Rutuja bemused.

"Try it again," said Rishi, his eyes scanning the forest.

Daksh, once again, threw the ring in the air.

The wind caused ripples in the glade, the atmosphere turning ice cold. The green leaves began to turn black and froze.

The ring hit the ground, spinning in its place.

"Impossible," said Daksh.
