vilaska is n imaginary place it's not a real place.... it's a mysterious place

Malika got up from her bed in the early winter morning. It was a November morning with chilly atmosphere. When she got up and looked out from the window , she found that whole of the garden , the pine forest and streets of the small town of vilaska, were covered with snow. Malika was a 18 years old teenager who loved 3 things in life - winter season snow , research about the unknown civilizations, exploring mysterious and her imaginary friend twigi.

Twigi was a imaginary girl who could do those things which malika couldn't. -

" come down malika. breakfast is ready ...." said her mom. With some laziness in her voice she replied " yes , mama . coming." she got up and first looked at her self in the mirror. After bathing she quickly wore a geans and a casual top white in color and came down. " Mom, can't you make anything else than chevdha ??? it is so boring " . after all this she went to her college. She was completing her degree in archeology at a college named Vilaska High college of Archeology. she was one of the campus belles. she had many admirers but she only had 2 close friends in college. " hi , vasti , what's up ." Malika shouted in the corridor. vasti turned around and came running to her. There was something very mysterious about vasti . she could run very fast, she could fight with anyone to save malika. You must be thinking what is wrong with such qualities . actually vasti could go to any extent to do what she was doing. Both of them went to attend the history lecture. In the class she was greeted by their favorite teacher mr .krishnan aier. In class he taught them about a new civilization that has been recently found. The Maya civilization. the maya state was ruled by the snake kings . The maya state is spread in the places near Mexico. Mr. aier also told them about one of the beliefs of the maya . During a wedding ceremony, when a snake prince was to marry a woman. he would had to cut some skin part from his ***** region to take out blood and the woman who would had to marry the snake prince had to cut her tongue and take out some blood. after doing so their blood were collected in a utensil and that utensil was set on the fire. By doing so they believed that they would call their ancestors . it was kind of a offering or sacrifice offered to their ancestors. After the class mr . aire called upon vasti and malika. He said ," malika and vasti. both of u r my favorite students. so I'm going to give some research work . Don't tell anyone about it . Recently a new mysterious civilization has been found. both of you will need to go and do research more about that civilization under mr . rajat ." malika got excited and asked, " Sir , is he the director of archeological department . THE MR. RAJAT ? . " Mr . aier replied " yes . he asked me for students who are the best at archeology studies, so I suggested your names .and after seeing your records he agreed with me. "

After getting this wonderful and exciting news , malika went home. she would be starting the research after a week. she couldn't wait to work with her idol. Next day in college mr. rajat for the first time came to meet malika and vasti. though malika was very excited but vasti was being very alert. Mr . rajat said ," miss malika and miss vasti . I went through your records and I was quite impressed. so I agreed to make both of u my colleagues. and you'll will be working with me to find out more about the mysterious civilization . but before you work with me . u should be clear about my rules , they are :

never to be late

follow my instructions

don't damage any thing .

these r my conditions. "

malika agreed to all these but vasti was suspicious of him. week past like seconds and finally the day arrived. Night before malika couldn't sleep out of excitement. In the morning she got up early at around 5: 50 am. but at 6 o'clock in the morning she felt something strange. It was felling like she was having a head ache. And a scene suddenly flashed in front of her eyes. she saw that she is in a dark foggy forest running away from someone. and suddenly there was a flash and she was lying on the ground. her hands were full of blood and a dark figure was coming towards her. And that's how her flash moment ended. malika found herself sitting on the sofa of her room . the sun had not came up the horizon till now .and it was dark outside. she thought that maybe she had seen a dream or she had seen a movie or she has been hallucinating because she read a lot of comics and books about crime and mystery. She watched at the clock and it was only

6 : 15 am. She then decided to take a walk outside her house as she was getting bored. She quickly wore her jeans and top and a Jacket with boots and went outside. It was still November . It was quite chilly and cold outside. The streets were deserted , only a few cats were roaming here and there . The snow was shining white with the lights of street lights. The sky was dark, cold winds were blowing . Malika felt very strangely scared. She took a stroll near the park . And after a while when she was returning back home she saw her friend vasti . She was about to call her when she saw something strange. Vasti was practicing killer moves and while doing so she unintentionally killed a dog and then she bitted that dog , seeing this Malika got scared and she screamed out of fear. Vasti heard her and came to give an explanation. Vast said " malika , see don't be scared from me. whatever you have seen is real .I'm a...." Before she could complete her sentence malika had already started running towards her home . Malika quickly went home and shut lock her door and went to her room. She was in a shock. She couldn't believe what she saw. Like how can her close friend do such a thing. She was so confused. How will she face vasti from now on ? She asked her imaginary friend twigi . That's when she replied, " u must have been hallucinating. go to sleep "
