“You have struck the mother lode of it all, my dear. But your life is in grave danger and you cannot stay here,” said Grandma. “I think that with the knowledge and the technique and everything that they have I have to do something or the other, Gram. I cannot just let them get away with whatever they have done, can I? You don’t know how it was Gram! You have no idea how it was. I was watching him…I watched him die and disintegrate before my eyes..” “That is the first time that you saw it happening. But I have watched it happen for ages, Blue. For ages. Do you think it was easy for me to keep my son alive? And let him have a family? But this has only one way out and that is for you to leave this place.” “And where will I go?” “To a different realm,” came the answer from the other side of the room. Blue had not even noticed that there was another person in the room. Puck was still busy with whatever needed to be done and to find a way to decode the formula of the pills which were being produced in that underground laboratory. “What now?” I could not stop asking the question. A sigh came from the other end and the girl stood up and I almost fell back from my chair. “Gram!” I whispered in horror. “I know! It is you..” she said and I looked at her and it was strange to find myself looking at me and I said,” Who are you? Are you my clone? How are you here? And then how I am here? How is it possible? Am I dead? But I was alive a few minutes ago…” “You are rambling, my dear.” “Oh did I break you?” the girl standing before me said and I whimpered in fear and she snapped book in her hands and then placed it on the coffee table and said,” I am a lot of things girl, but I am never this. I am nothing like this. You realise that I am not a scary person at all?” “If you are me then you would not be. But how are we coexisting here? If we are from different places and are the same person then past and future and present are going to all get congealed up. And I would die, and you would not be here. Two people who are the one and same would not be able to exist here at the same place in the same time in the same world..” “Does she ever stop talking?” asked the other me as she interrupted me all of a sudden and Gram smiled. “You tell me darling. You tell me. She is you after all.” “I get why they are asking me to shut up now all the time,” said the girl thoughtfully and said,” This is a paradox chamber.” “Gram? Did you know that your house is…” “Shush…I am the one living here. So obviously I would know that, Blue. But yes, there is more to it than you are being told right now. The drones are going to capture you at any point of time and you need to leave this world. You will have to go to the place where you are much needed.” “Why can’t she go there?” I asked pointing at the other me. It seemed like an extremely plausible question but Gram nodded and said,” She can’t go there because she is supposed to make the changes here while you make changes in the other world. This is the only room where you can co-exist together without having any issue towards causing a conundrum in the universe.” “Am I the only one who finds this extremely problematic?” I asked. “It is. It is traumatic as well. Can you imagine me being away from my husbands and then trying to find them here in a new world and a new system where they don’t know me and then making them fall in love with me all over again and in this process I will have to save the world as well. This is not just a problem…it is an extremely big problem,” said the other me and I understood that she was me because she spoke exactly like how I did. “Husbands?” “You did not focus on saving the world part, did you? You had to go there, did you not?” asked Gram with a smile and the other me smiled at me conspiratorially. “Of course I had to. She is saying that she has got a lot of husbands…that is not normal…and if she does then that means that I am going to have them as well…” “They will be brothers. Whatever their names might be it doesn’t matter but they will be brothers.” “Twins?” “No. Quintuplets.” “What the heck?” I was stunned at that revelation. “Girls…is this the important thing you needed to speak about right now?” “Of course it is. She needs to know this because they are the ones who are going to help her fight with everything and everyone. You will be enough yourself but you will need their help in order to grow into your power and without that you would not be able to do anything in that world. It is a place where still Gods reign and control supreme.” “And it is what kind of world?” “The name of the world is Solaris. And the place that you will be sent to is Godville Academy. You will have my sister at your side. She is…well she is your sister as well. And it is Red, but it is a she…not a boy..” “The worlds changed their genders?” I asked in shock. I could not even feel what I was sensing at the moment. “I don’t know exactly what happened but he is not your own brother any more. She is from a different set of parents and she will be the one helping you all along before you meet them. You will have to recall this in your mind because you will not know who you are once you reach there, Blue.” “Come again?” “Yes. You won’t remember anything about who you are. You will be gone from this life and integrate in a different life while I will make sure that the balance of this world which has been destroyed by taking control over population in human hands, will be back.” “DO you know what you need to do? Do you know how that will be done?” “I don’t. But we have different purposes for being born, Blue. You are Creation. You will forget this very soon. But know this. You are Creation and I am Balance. The balance is gone. And I am here to bring back balance to this world. While you have to create life in the world you are going.” “I won’t remember anything you say?” I asked. And she nodded. “Then what is the point of telling me?” “The more memories that you gain the more you will remember your purpose. You will have to know this because you will have to help them as well to find you. Your name and your identity will be gone. You will need to find yourself once again. Just like I will have to once I am out of this room.” I looked at Gram. I could not understand what was happening but albeit I knew that I had to remain focused on her words because this information was not going to be stored in my mind. “Will I be able to come back?” “No, my darling girl. You won’t be able to come back,” said Gram as I could not help but tears sprang into my eyes. “She is the one who is holding everything for us all in all the worlds. She is not our grandmother, but she is a lot more to us that that,” the other me said as she smiled sadly at me and I nodded at her. “Will you take care of my parents? They have lost their son…they are…” “I will take care of them, Blue. I will do that. And you would do the same for me I know. But please tell me that you know how to fight!” “I know how to kickass fight, babe,” I replied with confidence and she sighed in relief. “That is so good to know.” “Let’s prepare for the ritual then,” said Gram as she stood up and I said,” Hold on. I have something you should have. This is what I have gathered till now. Puck will tell you everything and he knows it all. He is the one who will keep you safe rather than anyone else.” She smiled. “Best of luck for your new life girl. Make me proud.”
