Chapter 2, A Hidden Garden With the mysterious stone still in Ravi's possession, he and
Madi decided to explore the city together, accompanied by Bholu and whiskers.
They wandered through the bustling streets, marvelled at the towering skyscrapers, and
observed the diverse people who called New York City home.
As they walked down a narrow alley, they stumbled upon a hidden gem, an overgrown garden nestled
between two old buildings.
The garden was a lush oasis filled with vibrant flowers, tall grass and a canopy of intertwining
branches overhead.
Intrigued, Ravi and Madi decided to investigate further, feeling as if they were stepping
into a secret world.
As they made their way through the dense foliage, they noticed a strange metallic object partially
buried in the soil.
Upon closer inspection, they realized it was a capsule, unlike anything they had ever
seen before.
Its smooth, reflective surface seemed to defy earthly origins, peaking their curiosity
even more.
With a mix of excitement and apprehension, Ravi and Madi worked together to dig out the
capsule.
Once it was free from the earth, they carefully opened it, revealing a small chamber inside.
To their astonishment, nestled within the chamber was an alien creature, unlike anything
they had ever imagined.
The alien had delicate, translucent wings, shimmering skin that changed colors like a
chameleon, and expressive, large eyes that seemed to hold the wisdom of the cosmos.
The creature introduced itself as Zara, an explorer from a distant galaxy who had crash-landed
on earth.
She explained that she had been in a state of hibernation within the capsule, waiting
for someone to discover her.
Zara was gentle and friendly, and Ravi and Madi were instantly captivated by her story.
As they listened, they learned that Zara needed their help to repair her spaceship and return
to her home planet.
Eager to embark on this unexpected adventure, Ravi, Madi, Dholu and Whiskers agreed to help
Zara, and together they set off on a cosmic quest that would take them to the farthest
corners of the earth.
