“Please, please! I will not let you take this from me. Instead, I will lead you to the place where I found it. I will!”

She said this with all her agitated mind and restless shaking of her body. Then her lips did not move, so didn't her eyes. And everyone waited for everyone else, other than her, to break the silence. That was like a breath of fresh air trapped behind her lips and trying hard to force its way through them. But they were unwilling to part because she had made herself very clear to everyone. Unmoved and fearless, in the middle of a hoard of men and women who anyhow wanted to possess what she had found somewhere. 

Then as silence kept deepening, and its anchor began to fall into the fastening grip of the minds that had no words, no opinions, no views to respond to the gallant display of the young girl. But the hoard was convinced and cohesively thinking of a way to unfasten the constantly deepening anchor of silence. 

Suddenly, someone from within the hoard found the words to express the views of the hoard, and free the anchor from the grip of silence. 

“Ok! You lead us there, but if we do not find a similar thing with similar properties you will have to give us the one you found.”

The girl didn't say anything immediately, but her eyes moved slightly, her lips shivered with vibrations similar to that of the wings of a hummingbird, only that they did not vibrate so rapidly and so many times. But faintly, and as she lifted her upper lip, the breath of air trapped in her mouth flowed outwards and she expressed herself. Once again she showed no signs of fear and there was no sign at all to suggest her submissiveness, that would tell the hoard that she was willing to compromise. She displayed no such intention. At least her body language and the authority with which she spoke suggested this.

“No! I will forever retain what I found there. You will have to seek yours and that shall be your destiny, with which the fate of my find cannot be and should not be tied at all. If this is acceptable to you, we can proceed or there shall be no deal at all. And do not think you can scare me and force your opinions on me. If I sense any of this, I will be the worst savage you have ever met or come across. 

Now, the choice is yours, whether you want me to be your guide and lead you into that realm where I found it, or you want me to reveal the savage side of my otherwise extremely placid personality. Let me know, and this time do not just use words to talk, but use them to express, to express your true intent. If you want to keep nagging and insisting on the same thing, I have many other options to consider. Think about it, and do not waste your time and mine either. Because I am needed in every realm, not just your realm. So, choose wisely.”

The fuddy-duddy hoard seemed unsure about the response that would scare her enough to accept their proposition. They felt completely fuddled, and a sense of unease prevailed over them. Because they knew they were not dealing with a fugitive, they were dealing with the rightful possessor of the thing. And if facts be considered and truth be told, they were guilty of poaching in the current circumstances. Still, they were adamant because their greed had blinded them.

They were like the raiding hornets who steal the honey of honeybees and even wish to claim the beehive as well. And the girl in defending her possession was not acting as a fusspot. She was simply showing them, when exactly, an indecent request culminates into trespassing. And she had every right to defend herself and her possession. In this case the Thing!

Moreover, there was a problem. The thing found by her could only be used to its full potential if it was used by the possessor who found it or it was uncoupled by its possessor from his/her mind willingly and chose to offer it to someone he/she felt was worthy enough to receive so much power. 

And, if the girl uncoupled her mind from it under some compulsion, it would become useless and bring never ending pestilence upon the hoard or whoever forced her to uncouple it from her mind to meet his/her sordid, malicious intentions, and desires! 

Everyone in the hoard was aware of it and this time they took even longer to break the silence. Even after two minutes nobody had spoken, nobody had a reply that would make her consider the thought about uncoupling her mind from this thing that she had found.

The silence grew, so grew the impatience and uncertainty about what might happen next, and what would become of the land. The land forsaken by the Gods and the conscience of the Universe too. She was their only chance, yet they had no words to convince her enough. Because they had been busy leading lives of rampantly changing desires, where each desire fulfilled itself only to lead to a new desire. 

It was so severe in their case, that they had transformed into a train of desires, where the coaches of desire were so infinite, that the train had come to complete halt. because its engine ( Their mind and heart ) could no longer maintain its balance on the track of life. And this thing, found by her, was the only key to add more force to the engine of this stranded train. But for that to happen, she had to agree or they had to agree.

But as of now, their polarity of intentions and desires as well, had transformed the train into something diabolical. A train with an engine at both ends, and both engines were trying to pull the train in opposite directions. 

And now whoever spoke from the hoard, would cease the motion of one of the engines, and that shall define the direction of the train.

“Ok! Let us do so!

You lead us to the realm and then we shall let our destiny decide the rest. And we shall accept it without any protest and without asking you to uncouple your mind from what you have found.

We hope we can find a similar thing as well and then we can end this strife forever, where we have been caught for long now.”

The girl looked at them, and without saying anything, she pointed her finger towards the sky. They all mark the spot pointed by her in the navigation system of their old spaceship, and they ask her to board first; and the rest of them follow.

When she begins to navigate the spaceship, she uses a digital key to mask the actual route with an inter-galactic route that led into empty space. And then she lets the auto pilot mode of the spaceship take over. But she did not leave her place, she sat there like a butterfly poised on a flower filled with the sweetest and copious amount of nectar. And sometimes she twitched her wings, as if it were a reminder that she is still awake and still in control of the spaceship’s navigation.

Whenever she did this, few men who were drawn closer to her, encouraged by their misbelief that now she was a butterfly who had bloated herself with so much nectar, that she was now feeling sedated, and it was their opportunity to cast their vile net over her and trap her. It reminded them not to think so. Because the moment she suddenly opened and then with equal swiftness closed her wings, the men, already assuming a lot about the frail butterfly, were warned that it is a hive of angry hornets that they were getting too close to. And with this realisation, they locked their feet. Because the impression of a vulnerable butterfly vanished with this simple but astutely timed movement of her wings.

She navigated the spaceship across many gravitational zones, and two major galaxies that lie somewhere near the Milky Way, and then, she announced, “Now we will be entering the realm of the Gods where I found this thing. And as we enter this realm we will experience a catapult like propulsion. Because in this realm, one has to navigate using gravity as the primary force of forward and backward thrust.

Meaning:

When we enter a weaker zone of gravity, the spaceship will be directed towards the stronger zone of gravity, which will pull it with tremendous force and as it enters the extremely strong zone of gravity, the navigational system will locate weaker current of gravity and then travel through it, until it is again pulled by another stronger force of gravity. That sometimes is so strong that you tend to travel at the speed of light, but never faster than it. Because that cannot be achieved! 

If you achieve speed faster than light, that would mean you are redefining the force of gravity, and it is impossible. The Gods sometimes do travel at speeds faster than light, but for that kind of travel there is a definite or a particular route of gravity that needs to be followed. Otherwise, the spaceship and the people aboard the spaceship will transform into a different configuration of atoms, that does not correspond to the person he/she is or used to be. And that is understood because when particles travel at extremely high velocities, almost nearing the speed of light, their properties change. And a Spaceship and people onboard the spaceship too are made of particles. So, we cannot isolate ourselves from this reality of particle behaviour.  That is why Gods have placed Gravity as the main and omnipresent guardian of the universe.

Am I clear and are you ready to experience space travel where being shaken is normal?”

She also added:

(About how Gods travel at speeds higher than speed of light? That is a secret about magical particles, where one particle behaves as two, so when you achieve speed greater than light, the particle changes its form. But when it enters stabilising speed, its tendency that always chases it in whichever form it might get converted to, forces it to regain this original form. How? That is my secret and the secret of the Gods! And we shall let it be a secret for now!)

They all were shocked to hear her explanation, because it made sense. And in particle physics, it is something that can be validated, but only at finite or micro scale. But how it can be achieved at such a huge scale that a man or woman can change form and then retain it again. Is something that is least understood. 

But the girl appeared to know exactly how and why. And the hoard shall not know of it now, because they still do not have the minds and hearts to receive the key to such a grand cosmic secret. Because if it is interpreted by men/women with evil intentions it can cause infinite chaos across the Universe, and then it will have no choice but to destabilise itself completely and initiate another big bang at cosmic scale. And when that happens, all realms with thinking beings suffer catastrophic losses, because then many realms of the universe are condensed into one small particle. The Gods call it the end of life in the realms of its influence.

They hear and heed her explanations. Then they all looked at her and agreed by shouting in chorus, “Yes let us go!”

With lot of shaking and rumbling, the spaceship enters the realm of the Gods and it gets pulled by varying intensities of gravity, until it reaches somewhere where everything felt peaceful, silent, but not quiet, it felt musical as if a flower were playing the song of its soul for the Gods who were in a state of trance, where they had linked themselves with billions of magical particles and they were creating symphonies of the Universe, to stabilise it and keep it balanced. They seemed to recruit these magical particles to heal the universe and then summon them back. Because they could not be lost to realms where they were not meant to stay permanently. And according to the girl, a part of this magical particle, its core tendency always remains with the Gods, and that is how they recall them into the realm of their origin. And every God is assigned a few clusters of these magical particles based on the role played by the God in maintaining the Universe in its perfect balance. It is like the human body, it needs makeup, it needs food, it needs surgeries, it needs repairing, it needs to be taken care of, it needs everything a human body needs. And at the centre of it all is the Cosmic Conscience , the mind of the universe that manages everything, even the Gods assigned roles to maintain the universe.

Anyway, the spaceship stood there, with no need to use any of its engines, no need to fear anything, there was complete silence but still it did not feel quiet, because it was calm but not silent, it was bright but not bedimmingly flashy, it was in gravity yet not in it, it was something one cannot explain, one can only experience, and the girl had experienced it by the will of the Gods. And everyone peeped from the windows of the spaceship, trying to figure out what they were experiencing and what was causing this sensation. Unfortunately, they did realise the existence of this new sensation, but they could not feel it. And the girl wondered if they at all could find what she had found in the realm of the Gods.

Then she asked the leader of the hoard  to unlock the door of the spaceship and descend into the realm. And she asked him not to fear anything, because through these magical particles, the realm would realign itself to meet the needs of his biological/physical existence/needs. Because this realm according to her was untouched by conflicting desires, it was where everything existed in complete harmony with everything that existed within it, and that included all living and non living forms. Because in this realm the mind thought the thoughts of the magical particles that originated from the mind of the universe. The real and supreme God! Who is selfless, without conflicts, at ease with the universe because the supreme God does not exist because of the universe, the universe exists because the Supreme God wanted it to exist. And if it were not true, then at the farthest reaches of the universe, where there is no gravity, nothing at all, how could such nothingness exist. It exists because that is where the Supreme Mind of the Universe resided when nothing existed, not even time, and then suddenly the Supreme God thought of creating the universe and it did so. 

However, the space called nothingness still exists and it is proof enough that only few have the ability to create something from nothing, because only few possess and know all secrets about the magical particles that are scattered in the realm of Gods, but they are not created there. Their origin is somewhere else.

Finally she asked him to go and seek what he was here for.

He hastily descended into the realm of the Gods. He dived into its depths, he crossed it's every breadth, he climbed its highest points, and finally, when he had searched enough, he too found what the girl had found. He was filled with joy and when he appeared from the realm of the Gods, he was no more a part of the hoard, he was who he was born to be. The salvager of the hoard!

The spaceship flew back to the planet of the hoard and they tried the magical powers of the things found by him and the girl. And they realised only when both are combined together, it works like a wish fulfiller, a touch that transforms anything and everything into what you wish it to be, and luckily for the hoard, their salvager never wished for anything corrupt and the girl stayed to help the hoard attain complete salvation.

What lies in these things, that both of them found, nobody knows, only they know and their minds do too, but only time shall tell whether planets too can evolve into something similar to the realm of the Gods where there are no conflicting desires. 

There are, and there will always be opposites, and two maintain the universe in its purest and most balanced form, existence of opposites is necessary. But their presence without conflicts is what the universe always lets the thinking beings to decide.

So, in the end we all shall realise that desires influence our choices, and our choices influence the desire of the Divine conscience called the Universe that thinks. As of now it rests completely in the hands of the girl and the man representing the hoard to define this trajectory of new choices.

If you want to know more about the choices the girl and the man made, you must read the science fiction novel, They Loved in 2075. It is a scifi story, just for you and for everyone else. 

Anyone who wishes, who hopes, who has desires and wants to make the right choices today for the better future of humanity in 2075; should read the scifi novel, They Loved in 2075!

If you still find no reason, here is a good enough reason. For the sake of a happy Earth, our home and our land. Our realm that has everything to equal the realm of the Gods. You must read the scifi novel, They Loved in 2075.
