Once upon a time there was an adventurous dude.. Who wanted to give his friends an experience of a lifetime.. He planned for a night trekking, cave exploration and camping trip..
The journey began with Manushri driving..and you can bet the story is only going to get much more adventurous as we proceed, so the characters somehow managed to reach the destination alive
*footnote : the music in the car was amazing
The famous five reached the destination at 2:30 am at night, and the ascent on the hill began
The night was scary and cold, but the dude was not scared, because he's the dude
They were carrying 3 tents, 3 sleeping bags, one big trekking bag, and 2 small bags
Halfway through the hill there was a shiva temple, after that the real rocky risky terrain began, the dude was leading the way for others.
Under the moonless sky it was pitch dark and difficult to find the way, but somehow they reached the summit of the hill, they put on some motivational high energy music to boost up the morale of the climbers. There were few other people on the top, camping.. Resting in their sleeping bags. But our heros wanted to explore the caves at night. As the dude knew a spot inside the cave, which he thought would be ideal for camping
The dude was pretending to have lost the way.. To make things more adventurous for others
. Okay fine, the dude agrees he was disoriented at one point in the cave.. He needed the help of other heros
They asked for help from a local guide.. Who showed them the entrance of the cave, and said he can't go beyond this point, because the cave was cursed and many souls have lost their ways in the cave.. But our heros filled with enthusiasm.. Laughed on the face of danger, tonight we dine in hell they exclaimed!
The entrance of the cave was a very narrow path, which you can only cross side wise.. And only if you don't have fat around your stomach, carrying all that luggage was another challenge
Crawling through the cracks and narrow paths, jumping through the haphazardly arranged rocks.. Our heros somehow managed to reached the intended place. Imagine doing that in darkness, in a closed and scary place.. It was both terrifying and cool at the same time.. Which required serious balls
Everyone hands were occupied..carrying something or the other.. They formed a human chain to get the luggage from one place to another
Finally they reached the "spot"
Meanwhile Sud, had found some tweaks and wood to burn, they decided to lit the bonfire as the night was cold and they were hungry
The dude was carrying some thinner which helped in lighting the fire (which he bought from home, because he thought a need of fire might arise)
For food our heros only had potatoes, which they found in the last minute before leaving for the trip
They lit the fire, after few attempts they managed to set the wood on fire.. There was also few pieces of charcoal lying nearby.. Which was added to the flame.. Once the flame was lit for sometime.. They threw the potatoes in the fire, and WATCH THEM BURN
kidding, cooking them.. On a medium flame
*Manushri : And the duDe went roaming around and we waited for an hour for him to.come back*
Yes, the dude had some personal business to take care.. An urgent nature's call
Okay, so there were few more people who followed our heros into the cave..
All guys.. Drunk.. The smell of alcohol can be sensed at 10 meters from their mouths
After some strolling, the dude returned back to the base camp.
At this point the other group have tried all ways of exiting the cave and failed
They were shitting in their pants, how would they ever get out ??
The dude, consoled them that he had once before managed to get out alive of this ruthless man-eating cave.. And can do it again
So once again the dude went out for a solo expedition, but this time to find a way to save everyone's lives
In a dark dingy part of the cave.. There was a small opening at the bottom of a rock, but to get there he had to jump by crossing through a deep abyss between the rocks
Without caring for his life, He made the leap of faith and cross through that part (Which was pretty cool if you ask me)
There was one guy from the other group who was following the dude
But he couldn't make the jump, instead he cried in pain and called the dude back
The dude asked what happened?
The guy said he has dislocated his shoulder
The dude was like, WTF!
He had to help that poor bugger, So he called for his friend Deepak and asked him to call that guy's company. so that they can help him.
Then the dude called for his friends after that .. He told them that he had found the way
Now others also had to make the leap of faith.. Cross that dangerous gap, now was the time when the dude became disoriented and forgot the way out.. Because there were multiple ways leading up and in all that confusion and trauma of helping that little bugger, the memory cache on his brain cleared. There was only one way that led to the exit
So Deepak went on exploring this time, while others were trying to get the luggage across..
Deepak found the way out, we could see scrubs and bushes and the touch of breeze of open air on our faces.We finally got out of the cave, but the struggle was far from over.. We exited from the opposite side of the cave.. How would we go back ??.. This was the thing even the dude was not sure of
Sensing from the stars and our perception of direction, we decided to move back from the side of the cave, following its boundaries. There were some man made paths on the grass, So we followed them
One of the path was leading us back into the cave, It was like the monstrous cave wanted to pull us back in some way, We quickly turned back and took the other way, then begin the game of guessing, for which is the right path
We reached the side of the hill where, the only way to cross was to lean back on the rock and not look on the valley right in front of us.. There was a small tree growing from the side of the hill, we held it for support and crossed the narrow path, leaning back and putting our body weight against the wall and slowly shifting our bodies to the side
Sud was leading the way here, we finally landed on solid ground, but were unsure of where we are
Then after some looking around, the dude realised that they have been through these part before.. and navigated others to the place they were before, where other people had already camped
Our heroes found their way back, the opened up the newspaper wrap in which they kept their baked potatoes and enjoyed the treat...as in all this excitement and fear they have forgotten eating anything, The taste of the baked potato was amazing, with a little salt they almost tasted like French fries,
We found the other group who was already camping and set up our tent near them, everyone was wondering why are these people setting their tent at 6:30 in the morning, but we didn't have the time or energy to explain them our adventurous night story
Within 10 minutes we set up our tent and by that time the sun had already broken free from the horizon, while others were admiring the first rays of the sun
We were getting ready to go in our sleeping bags, lying under my tent I heard a random girl talking outside "why have these people set up tents early in the morning? ".. To which a wise guy replied" to sleep, probably "
The End.
