The train was too crowded. Laura sat at the corner where no one noticed and was chatting on her phone.
“It’s time.”
Laura heard that man’s voice in her mind. She closed her eyes and sat silently for few seconds.
Laura felt the changes around her and opened her eyes.
“How was your day?”
Mike asked as he glanced at her with interest. He looked as though he wanted to research on her.
“I remember the meeting schedule, you don’t need to call me every time just because I missed it once. It will take time for me to travel from one city to another.”
Laura told lies while looking a little irritated, though she was not truly irritated. Mike didn’t care. He talked all the way to the meeting place.
The once prosperous Magic city looked so desolated from its actual outlook. No one would believe that the once prosperous city would become a deserted land without food, water, safety and humanity.
Mike and Laura reached the meeting location after walking for 15 minutes.
"How was it? Found anything useful?"
Theo looked at Mike and asked. He never liked to talk with Laura. No matter how she helps him and this city he thinks of her and a disaster, just like those humans who destroyed their beautiful city just to snatch the resources.
Theo hated her but he had no other go. He had to take the help of humans so that he can make the city a living place.
"Laura found the location and sent it to me yesterday but I couldn't get inside. It seems like only humans can go in."
Mike looked at Laura and smiled. He looked creepy while smiling like that.
Theo glanced at me once and then spoke with Laura.
"If she wants to go she can go, else we can try some other method."
"Okay."
Theo seemed not too interested in getting Laura's help.
"Are you going to go?"
"Yes. It's my responsibility."
Laura glimpse at the people in front of her for the last time..... She knew what was going to happen, but never cared.
Laura used the invisibility mode from her watch and moved towards her destination.
"She is not wrong. You didn't have to show that much distrust towards her intention."
Theo did not look at Mike and did not care about his intention. He and his men planned on what to do after getting the only 'Magic Nature stone' from the other side.
Laura entered the company at her own risk. She went into the only highly secured room to get the only 'Magic Nature stone'.
She had to use all kind of password cracking tool, a virtual electric shock gun, a speed tablet and invisibility cloak from the watch’s storage to crack the passwords, make all those humans like her to faint without anyone’s notice while speeding this process using the tablet. Their body twitched a little when they were electrically shocked.
She took many invisibility cloak from her watch’s storage and covered those people who were lying unconscious.
Laura stood in front of her target object and looked at it intently.
She checked the security and grabbed the 'Magic Nature stone'.
It took 8 minutes for her to carefully grab it without alerting the security system around it. The AI security was very advanced and the time took was more than expected.
By the time Laura got hold of the 'Magic Nature stone', the security alarm rang.
Even though the guards and the robots came to stop her from escaping, they couldn’t hold her.
Since Laura used the advanced invisibility mode from her watch rather than the cloak, she could escape from the X-ray eyes of the robot.
Though the guards who were proficient in fighting found her breath, they could hold her as she used her 1 time use – ‘Teleportation’ and escaped successfully.
Laura reached the meeting place within seconds, but before she could feel relief she found herself bleeding.
A long sharp knife stabbed her chest and pierced through her heart.
Laura looked at Mike who was pulled the long knife from her chest. Mike took his handkerchief and slowly wiped the knife while Laura slid and knelt on the rough soil which had no sense of life for years.
Her watch cracked after sensing its host in danger and lost the visibility mode. Laura looked miserable.
“Though I really want to experiment on you, I really don’t want to let you live. Humans like you who help outsiders should never live.”
Mike tried to grab the 'Magic Nature stone' but was forced to step back by the barrier around Laura.
The watch showed ‘2 minutes’ on its screen.
Mike didn’t notice the changes in the watch and only thought that Laura used the watch’s power to create a barrier around her.
“Mike, what are you doing?”
“She tried to escape with the 'Magic Nature stone', so I had to hurt her. You too know right, that the humans are selfish?”
Mike answered normally just as how anyone would answer in this situation.
“All of them arrest him.”
Mike couldn’t get hold of what was happening and was subdued by Theo’s people as well as Laura, who stood up as though she was not hurt and tied a rope while stuffing his mouth with a rag so that he doesn’t bite his tongue and die.
Theo looked meaningfully at Laura and turned away from her as he planned to go with his people. He wanted to see how many more stories Mike would make while hiding his true identity as a human.
“Wait, I have something to give to you.”
Laura did not wait for Theo to turn back and moved towards him. She took his unguarded hand and placed the 'Magic Nature stone'.
Just as Theo was going to ask what she was planning on doing, he saw Laura disappearing right in front of his eyes.
She disappeared completely without giving him a chance to ask why she helped their city, why she kept the secret that Mike was also a human, why did she risk her life to get the 'Magic Nature stone', why did she go against her kind of species?
Theo thought of the future he saw in his dream and came to a conclusion.
She used technology to pass through this world and save it.
That was what came to his mind.
Theo knew that there were a lot of world and many people had a kind of strange power to travel from one world to another. He didn’t know from where Laura came, but he knew that she used all she could to save this city.
When Laura appeared in front of them out of air he thought that she used invisibility mode of her watch which was just like that of the prince of the human city. He doubted that she was sent to spy on them.
But nothing went as he expected.
At last she disappeared.
Theo knew that she lost to ability to travel to other worlds as he saw that the watch she wearing cracked too much. It looked as though it would become powder with a pinch.
Theo felt a little pain in his heart. Laura looked a lot like his lost sister.
Looking at Laura disappearing right in front of his eyes he had the urge to grab her and take her home to keep her safe from the world’s impurities.
As always nothing happened the way he wished for. He looked at the place where Laura disappeared for a long time and then walked forward.
Since Laura gave him the 'Magic Nature stone', he would consider it as the last gift from his sister and then forget the sadness accumulated in his heart.
Laura who disappeared regained her consciousness and slowly opened her eyes. She looked as though she woke up from sleep.
She glanced at her GWatch (GreenWatch) which was perfectly alright and smirked.
Laura had to travel to many world and save the ‘once famous city’ in every world which was about to be destroyed without the support of nature. she had to give those cities enough of resources to make sure that those cities would prosper with the growth of nature.
Each time she is about to finish the mission, the watch will crack it will be the time till which she could live in the particular world.
Laura looked at the mission rate in her mind and felt extremely satisfied.
She glanced at the time and found that only few minutes passed, as usual.
Laura saw an old lady standing for a long time. She stood from her place and made the old lady sit.
The old lady looked pleased and smiled warmly at her. Laura too smiled friendly and looked at the scenery outside the train.
The beautiful scenery made her remember all the time when she would disappear from every world, unable to see the development of the countless cities working hard to make the environment stable while trying to make the surrounding more greenly with many plants, trees, flowers, fruits, birds and animals.
She closed her eyes for few seconds sand opened them again with faint smile in her eyes. Though she herself couldn’t see the changes, she was sure that the city would look as good as the scenery outside the train……………….
