They had reached the landing pad at the arrival tunnel of Town L within 20 minutes. The cars stopped at their respective slots and the doors opened. Everyone was surrounded by the Orbs emitting white light. The Orbs once directed, would always follow orders without questions unless the work a.s.signed to them clashed with their conscience.They all got out of the cars and started to follow Mono.
They saw three hazy statues in various stages of doing something. It was just like what they had seen when they had reached the departure tunnel at Town M, Town I, Town J and Town K. Town L was much nearer to Town M, but it was an abandoned Town. Maybe, it was the only town near to Town M but not at all on the visiting list. Hence, there were fewer people at the entry tunnel.
The 100 Orbs had surrounded Mono and the group of the trekkers. They were emitting white light. Mono seemed to carry a map of all the Towns as he was again carried a map with him, apparently of Town L. The 10 minutes" walk would take them to the inner cave which housed the Time Machine experiment of this town.
As they walked, all were a bit apprehensive about this town due to the cruel stories they had heard at Town K. To cover up their fear of the unknown, they started asking Mono questions.
The questions had ranged from the bottled water kept in the cars for them to drink, the packed lunch, the utensils as well as the green cold drink they had quenched their thirst with.
The replies given by Mono were something they expected about using biodegradable material. But they were surprised that experiments were ongoing in many countries but the use of these environmental things was not so widespread. Yes, there were plates made of leaves and containers made of leaves used in India for serving food in temples. These plates were disposable.
They all followed the path indicated by the map and walked through the tunnel for about 10 minutes while they were listening to the lecture given by Mono. They also learned that he had done research on Khus khus and Brahami plant.
The tunnel here was as well lit as the light from outside was filtering through the shafts and vents as was in the tunnel in Town M and I, Town J and Town K. Fresh air from above was coming down through the vents.
Upon turning the corner they arrived at the inner cave. There were no scientists here. The two telephone booths like structures as one would see in the T.V. serial called "Dr. Who" were there, but these telephone booths like structures did not have gla.s.s covers. Someone seemed to broken not only its doors but its gla.s.s windows too. The wires connecting the computer terminals with the huge dead brain were still there. The writing on the wall saying, "Time Machine Experiment, Town K", seemed to be many years old as the dust had gathered on it. The computers were the old box types and were covered in layers of dust and cobwebs. Instead of a huge pulsating brain hanging on the wall, there was just a huge dead brain hanging on the wall. It was also covered in dust and cobwebs.
The entire atmosphere gave an eerie feeling. The group of trekkers did not feel comfortable. This cave was also a replica of that at Town M, Town I, Town J and Town J. But from the look of things especially the box type computers, it seemed as if the Time Machine Experiment had commenced here.
Mono surrounded by a few Orbs went through the pulling of wire and pressing the red b.u.t.ton procedure. Though everything was in a stopped state, a lot of sparks were seen coming out of the machines and the huge brain. The noise was also being emitted and the huge brain though dead, shriveled up to the size of a tennis ball. A white cloud engulfed them all. Soon the cloud subsided but the machines were destroyed. The two telephone booths were destroyed further. The computer terminals which were wired to the brain had also destroyed.
Some of the Orbs went over the shriveled up brain and started humming. A cracking sound was heard from the shriveled brain and here also 25 blobs of white light came out. About 20 Orbs moved to the shriveled brain to receive those that were coming out of the huge brain. These 20 Orbs communicated with the Orbs that had come out from the shriveled brain for about 10 minutes and these 25 Orbs joined the rest of the Orbs. Now there were a total of 175 Orbs in total now comprising 75 from Town M, 25 from Town I, 25 from Town j, 25 from Town K and now the most recent 25 from Town K.
These 175 Orbs were dancing around meeting their old friends. They seemed to be very happy to meet the old friends and relatives who had been trapped in the huge brain here. There was a strange humming type of sound emitting from the excited Orbs which were jumping about.
This time again Mono did not have to tell the Orbs to ensure everything was destroyed including the dead brain contained the first brain around which the Time machine experiment had been built.
The Orbs moved around with lightning speed throughout the entire cave raising electric current and sparks of electricity to hit at all the computer terminals. Soon the computer terminals were burnt beyond recognition. The shriveled brain was also injected with a dose of electric current by a few of these Orbs in a combined exercise. As a result, the shriveled brain was burnt up beyond recognition.
The Orbs wanted to destroy the experiment gadgets as the experiment was nothing but torture for them all even after death, their loved ones were always agitated about this fact.
Mono asked Juan, his grandfather, and Echo, his father to ascertain from the 25 Orbs of Town L to ensure that no blueprint or designs of the Time Machine remained there.
The two Orbs asked those 25 Orbs telepathically and they got a response that all the terminals were destroyed. Some old computers were kept in the storeroom. They would light up a controlled electric shoot there too. The group saw the Orbs leaving for a similar area where there was a similar door of a storeroom. Soon there was a lot of hissing noises as the Orbs aimed electric current at all the dumped terminals in the storeroom. Soon everything was destroyed, actually charred beyond recognition. Now everything about the Time Machine experiment was completely destroyed at the abandoned Town L.
Mono again remembered that they needed to destroy the Time Machine experiment at Town M in a similar way. They would take care of this matter when they went back to Town M. It would be the first thing they needed to do before embarking on the mission to free the freedom fighters who had been jailed in Town M as well as the scientists who had revolted against the making of the Time Machines there. They should do this as soon as they landed in the tunnel at Town M. They would have many Orbs to do this and all of them would feel immense pleasure in destroying all that torturous stuff. No one should start to make such a horrendous thing again.
The 25 Orbs of Town L came back after their work was completed. Then they started to tell about what had happened here.
