Meena Mangalathil:

Oh My God, its his little friend. He had been searching for this boy. How come he is here. “Son, how come you are here? How did you become a wizard?” Sir, you really helped me a lot by giving me this container. If it weren’t for this powder my family could not have had any warm nights during winters. You made my life easy. So I came in search of you in the forest several times to meet you, but it was no use. Then I saw an old man while returning from the forest. He asked me, what I was doing in the forest. I didn’t feel to say other than the truth. He was very happy to hear the truth. He introduced himself as your teacher in wizardry, Troy. I expressed an interest becoming his pupil (student). He willingly accepted and I became wizard, but he used to say, you were the best, but you had lost track of your ambition, but he hoped one day, you’ll find the right path. But I hoped to meet you once more, so that I’d be able to thank you properly for saving my life. Hearing all these Ramo smil

Rufus found Ramo sleeping peacefully. He sat beside his bed looking at him lovingly. He was happy to be near the person, who had saved his life. It was years back when he was 8 years old. He was a normal kid just like Roby but he was an orphan. They were three children, His elder brother, Mark elder sister, Marie and himself. They were staying in their parents house and it was his duty to collect firewood from the forest. As he was collecting firewood alone in the forest, he heard a crackle and turned to look directly into the eyes of a panther. He was so shocked that he lost his voice. He knew, that any moment, he’ll be in the mouth of the panther. He closed his eyes very tightly and stood there without moving. Suddenly he found himself airborne (flying). and he opened eyes to see himself high above the ground and he looked up to see a man with smiling grey eyes and he put him just outside the forest area and asked, “Well, that was close, isn’t it?” Rufus nodded. “Next time don’t s

          As the sun began its descend, Rufus, adorned (put on) his official wizard costume and took his magic wand and his broom. It had been long since he had met any other wizards and he had a jittery (nervous) feeling. He was a recluse since he had consumed (drank) the infinity potion. He didn’t feel necessary to communicate with others and the constraints (control) the magic potion has put on him forced him to be indoors for the whole day, which made him nocturnal (night time traveller).           Now thanks to Sir Bradley, I hope to make changes within myself and the society of magic. Ramo was an evil person, he couldn’t be predicted. He can cheat. But the infinity potion acts as a barrier to thefts, cheating and lies. Nothing can touch me. But I hope he doesn’t lose his ethics on another wizard. If he does, he won’t be able to be revived of his magical powers. I hope he knows the rules.           He went to his potion cabinet and mixed some potions and some herbs and made it int

Antsy smiled and walked towards the castle along with Roby, Rambo and the parrot. All were present in the tea room, except for Rufus. Spidey seeing Antsy's arrival, jumped up from his seat and came forward. “How did it go?” Oh it was fine. He was happy to see us, isn’t it Roby? Roby nodded a bit nervously. Look, he presented him with his rainbow parrot. They all were surprised to see such a valuable gift given so freely. “So that means, he has dropped the infinity leaf?” enquired John. Yes, that’s what he’s told. He just wants to walk and return to become a wizard. I have already introduced Rufus to him and he’s happy to meet him today in the evening. At that moment they heard soft footsteps through the corridor and all turned towards the noise and there in his black robe stood Rufus. Immediately, the rainbow parrot flew towards Rufus and sat on his shoulders. Roby was shocked to see his gift just flying away so easily. But Rufus, spoke something to the parrot and the parrot flew b

Roby was sitting near Ramo and playing with the rainbow parrot. The parrot was very smart. Roby was so excited to have it. He couldn’t control his excitement. Ramo had given his pet to him for helping him sit comfortably. That was easy for him. He was not expecting anything from this fearful looking person other than fright. But he was kind. Antsy slowly moved towards them taking in this happy scene and all looked up seeing her and Roby helped her with the tray so that Antsy could arrange the bed to serve food for Ramo. She did with ease and let Ramo eat the food in private as they knew that he was hungry. Ramo ate the whole food while they looked around the house. Seeing all the curios, Roby didn’t like to leave the place. It was a place worth exploring. “Aunty, have you seen these types of things before?” Antsy shrugged, No Roby, this is the first. “It’s a treasure house isn’t it?” I don’t know. Is it very expensive? “No aunty, we don’t find this everywhere, its very rare and we won’

I have a friend, named Rufus. Do you know him? Ramo shook his head in the negative. He is a wizard, he can help you regain back your magic powers and also back your health. He is the person who sent me here, but the only problem is, he is unable to come during day time. If you are willing to accept him as your friend, he will be here by dusk (evening). Ramo scratched his chin thinking very deeply and then wide eyed, he asked, “Do you know, why he’s unable to travel in the morning?” Antsy smilingly replied, “Why don’t you ask him directly, it would be much more easier isn’t it?” Ramo smiled and replied, “I’d surely like to meet your friend Rufus, but what about my current (present) situation? I’m really feeling hungry.” Where’s the kitchen? “Over there, Ramo pointed towards the kitchen. Antsy walked towards the kitchen and Roby followed her silently, but Ramo stopped him and asked, “Were you the person, who was playing in the forest yesterday?” Roby with fear filled eyes turned toward

“How did you know?” Well, I’m not a witch. My name is Antsy and this is Roby. I really could help you. Just think that I’m your friend. I saw you were suffering and I knew that you had camouflaged your house with the rainbow flowered tree and locked with a sing-a-song password. Isn’t it? Ramo’s mouth were agape (open-mouthed). “No one knows about my presence here. How did you know?” Now, its time for food, so what should I do for you Ramo? “If you could bring my magic wand, then I can prepare my own food. But I don’t know whether it would work as I have been incapacitated (injured).” We can try and see whether it would work and she went to the room she had seen yesterday and took the magic wand and gave it to Ramo. He swished his magic wand but there wasn’t any response. Ramo felt depressed. He didn’t know, what he was going to do without his wand. His life as a wizard has come to a close. Seeing his sad face Antsy consolingly came to Ramo and said, “Don’t worry Ramo, I’ll bring you ba
