Trapped In Time 39 To Rescue The Prisoners At Town I

After dinner, they walked back into the tunnel then the entered the main tunnel which would take them to the Town I. The 25 Orbs were leading as they knew the way to the Jail of Town I where innocent scientists were lodged. There also were lodged those persons who had protested against the wrong policies of the Administrator and his cronies. Surprisingly, Town I had its local government which was similar to that at Town M but on a lower scale.

They soon reached the Jail and by magic, all the locks opened as soon as the Orbs surrounded the gate. Upon entering the jail, they first went to the reception area and found the records. Quickly they identified the records of 20 scientists, who had been arrested quite some time back for refusing to work on the Time Machine experiment. They also located the records of the 15 political prisoners. The Orbs did a memory scan of the lists of scientists and the political prisoners and thereafter destroyed the entire records. All the attendants there were statues.

The Orbs split into four groups. One group remained to surround them, another group floated to the compound of the 20 scientists. The third group moved to the compound that had lodged the 15 political prisoners. The fourth group moved to the local administrator's building which housed the local administrator and his cronies. The Administrator and his cronies were still in office today as they were working late. All the lights in the building were still on.

The question now arose as to how to get the prisoners out of jail and the local Administrator and his cronies into jail? They had been frozen into statues. The Orbs thought that they should hypnotize the prisoners and make them walk out of jail and into their homes where they would become statues again. How else would they be able to get these 20 scientists out of the jail? The same was the case of the 15 political prisoners. The Orbs huddled together to think for a solution to handle the issue. They then went in front of the prisoners and waved a thin lit torch like apparatus in front of the prisoners.

The Orb of Mono's Dad was holding this thin lit torch stick like apparatus in front of the scientists and his grandfather's...o...b..was holding a similar lit torch like apparatus in front of the political prisoners.

Both of then asked the prisoners to slowly move out of jail and continue to walk to their homes. They were to remain in their homes till someone by the name of Mono contacted them. They were not to go anywhere or have any contact with anyone for a week. Since their benefactors had their names and addressed as well as phone numbers, they would be contacted shortly.

Thereafter the scientists left for their respective homes. As they had been hypnotized they became statues as soon as they entered their homes. The same thing happened with the political prisoners. They also became statues upon reaching their homes.

The fourth group made their way to the local Administrator's office. Here another Orb held a similar thin lit torch like apparatus and hypnotized the local Administrator and his colleagues. They were asked to head for the jail.

They, in turn, followed the directions of the Orb and made their way to the jail and entered the 'political prisoners' compound on the jail. As soon as the local Administrator and his cronies landed up in their cells, they became statues. The gates closed behind the new prisoners. New records with names and other details were created and kept in the reception area.

The Orbs were very clever, after all, they were the energies of scientists, so it was understandable.

But Zoya felt she needed to ask a few things from the Orbs before they left the jail.

All the Orbs were now together and protecting everyone.

"Can anyone answer my questions?" Zoya asked.

She was looking at Mono so obviously Mono had to react.

"What are your questions," he smiled.

I just want to know about the CCTV cameras, will they not be recording our presence here?"

"The very fact that the Orbs are covering all the operations indicates that no one can see us. Means no person can see us or a machine record our presence. The Orbs do not let our voices also leave their covering." Mono replied.

"Ohh…I see, actually, you answered my second question about our voices being heard from the outside." Zoya added.

"But to be on the safe side, I think we need to freeze the CCTV cameras too," opined Mono.

Mono called the Orb of his father and conveyed Zoya's concern about the CCTV. This father responded that she had a valid point. There can be lapses no matter how cautious they were.

He would talk to the rest of the Orbs and get the CCTV cameras neutralized everywhere throughout their little world of 4 towns, right from the minute the first Time Machine experiment was destroyed.

The matter was discussed among the Orbs and the entire CCTV cameras were neutralized from the minute the Time Machine experiment at Town M was destroyed by mistake.

"We have accomplished our work successfully in Town I," Mono said.

"We need to head back to the residential hostel of the scientists for a good night's sleep," he added.

"Tomorrow morning after breakfast at 8.30 a.m. we will leave for Town J."

"We all deserve it. It had been a long day," responded Luke.

"Some of us have been up since 5 a.m." he added with a smile and taking a side glance at Zia.

Zia knew he meant her but she did not say anything. She was tired and naturally, all the students would also be tired. Today had been a very eventful day. This was something to remember for posterity. But will they be allowed to remember everything? They must be having gadgets for making people forget their immediate memory something like the flash that the 'Men in Black' possessed. They had that hypnotizing light then why not the flash?

They all started walking back and entered the tunnel. They had no time to see the town as they were there in the night time. But it seemed to be a properly planned city like the ancient Indian cities of Harappa and Mohenjo Daro and the present city of Chandigarh in India. These ancient cities were made in such a way that the blowing wind would clean them. The back of the houses was towards the main roads. The front of the houses opened into the inner lanes of the colonies.

It seems that the idea for their towns was taken from the information about these cities available on the net.

Soon they had reached the residential hostel and were escorted to their rooms by the Orbs. On their beds, they saw that new night suits were kept on each bed.

After taking bath in the attached bathrooms, which had lovely herbal scented soaps and shampoos, everyone wore their new pajama suits and admired themselves in the attached mirrors on the walls of each individual room. Soon as they lay on their beds and their heads touched their respective pillows they went to sleep as everyone was tired.
