THE UNDERGROUND MYSTERY

Three close friends, Oumar, Ozan and Sena often spent
their times altogether during that summer vacation. They
were playing with a ball in Oumar’s garden. Sena hit the
ball and it got away and finally fell down in a hole. They
tried to take the ball back but were unaware of the tiny
timbers that they did stand on, on the edge of the hole.
The timbers cracked and they fell down in the hole. While
they were thinking of how to get out of the hole, they
realized the hieroglyphics on the walls. They finally made
it out of the well. Oumar had taken some photos of the
hieroglyphics and started making a search of what they
meant. It said “ The paths that lead to the great treasure
for the brave ones who fear nothing... The friends who
will find the true light on the fourteenth month.” The
following day, the trio got together in front of the well
again. They were ready for this adventurous treasure
hunt. The wall where the hieroglyphics were written on
was so hard and Oumar tried to find a lever. They finally
made the wall move by following the hints they collected
and found a long and dark tunnel behind the wall. After
a while, the tunnel got widened and the ceiling got higher.
They realized that there were booby traps everywhere. When they ran away from a booby trap, the ground
cracked down and they fell down for minutes long to even deeper points. They found themselves in a wide
cave. It was surrounded by a valley and a fall by each sides. They started walking on a path that was
located on the opposite side of the valley. After walking for a while they came across one more tunnel. When
they entered into the tunnel, they saw the same hieroglyphics and while getting closer to the exit, they got
surprised because they heard some birds singing and smooth sound of waterfalls. They were amazed by
the beauty of green forest standing in front of them once they exited from the tunnel. They looked up to
the sky but there were no clouds, no sky, no sun. There only was a whiteness and the source of light that
looked like a sun but obviously it was not. They started wondering around and came cross two boys named
Rocky and Darian. The boys told them the entire story about the place and the trio thought this place must
be established on artificial foundations by some people. Darian hosted the trio in their house and they told
Darian’s father about the life they have on the surface. The system had forced Darian’s father to go on a duty
and when he heard of all these stories about the life on the surface, he decided to go against this wrong order.
The protectors named as The Chosen Ones had lived in a palace. The trio got themselves accepted to work
in the palace and learn about all the
secret plans of the Chosen Ones and
revealed them to the folks. One night,
the folks marched to the palace and
started a huge riot. The system was
successfully down! The trio took an
advantage of this chaotic situation
and made a way out of that place
through a passage. When they finally
returned home by the help of police
officers, they told the whole story to
their parents but no one believed in
them. After that day, they often got
together and looked at the photos
of the mysterious caves and tunnels
and smiled at each other.
