Chapter 3
On the planet Berth, some serious actions started in utter secrecy from two dilapidated but inconspicuous shacks simultaneously outside of two villages in Desh- a moderately developed country located in the western hemisphere of Berth.
Though a fairly developed country, a few locales on it had still remained totally unexplored and underdeveloped. The deep interiors of some of its countryside presented a forlorn scenario.
On a dirt road of these desolate places two bikers were riding the most powerful bikes ever known to anybody.
One of them shouted, “Hey, what a pickup, 105 kilometers per hour in just 2.5 seconds. Look here, I am now driving the beast at its fastest speed of 410 kilometers.”
The other spoke out at the top of his voice, “Me too. I am amazed at its 1685 CC engine. Capable of producing over 600 HP. That’s why the machine is flying. Incredible!”
“Yet the most incredible part is how we got these bikes.” The first one laughed out loud.
Soon they reached a fork of the road. They stopped. They exchanged notes before they took the two different paths emanating at the fork.
“Now our new meeting places are the ideal ones. In our old meeting place I was not very comfortable.”
“The two shacks we have constructed in the densest forest are not easily penetrable. The shacks are inconspicuous and that’s very important. Also with two shacks at our disposal we have two alternative places to meet.”
“I will set out my recruitment spree as soon as I reach the shack in the next half hour. Hopefully when we draw out our final plans we will have more people on our team. And I hope they will be as concerned about things as we are.”
“I have already started thinking on who to include. We need to do it very cautiously. Any Tom, Dick, and Harry will not do.”
“Yep. Here I go.” The first one took the right hand branch of the fork.
“And here I go too.” The second one went the left side.
Within the next half hour to forty-five minutes both reached the shacks they had decided to reach. They were now separated by some 200 kilometers from each other.
Without wasting any time Amar and Victor started working on the serious business they had undertaken.
Amar was in action in one shack.
Victor got into action from the other shack.
Both got busy in their recruitment spree.
Both the shacks were equipped with ultramodern communication devices. Only 98 most influential and richest people of Berth owned such devices. But this number got reduced to 96. The missing two devices were now in the possession of their new owners. The new owners were Amar and Victor.
Mysteriously both the previous owners also went missing. They just vanished. Vanished in thin air! Intensive and extensive searches yielded no results. Ultimately the police departments of most of the 138 countries gave up and finally everyone on Berth forgot about this missing episode.
……….
The cell phone of Adarsh buzzed in the golden room of the presidential villa. Adarsh was surprised to see the caller’s name on his phone’s screen. The surprise immediately got converted to excitement.
“Hey you! Ringing me after such a long gap?”
“Shush. Are you alone there? Can I continue our conversation?”
“Yes. But how could you ever reach me with so many security hurdles on my communication line?”
“I know how important you have become now. Only 97 persons of the world can reach you.”
“Only if you possess those specially designed ultramodern communication interfaces.”
“Will you believe if I say I have one?”
“Coming from you, I have to believe. You are honesty personified. I have known you from the school days.”
“Where are you right now?”
“I am at the president’s villa in the east coast.”
“Oh the one in which a few billions worth of taxpayers’ money has been pumped. The place where the president of Bigland- one of the most powerful countries of our planet- enjoys his holidays with his family and allows the ordinary people of the world to die in incessant wars. And now my best friend Adarsh also enjoys the same luxuries.”
“That’s my job. Being president Gushnell’s personal bodyguard I am responsible for his security. Bigland does not believe in propagating the wars but Bigland definitely intervenes only in the most deserving situations ultimately to bring in peace and justice. Though located in the eastern corner of the planet, Bigland helps maintain peace on the whole planet.”
“I am just kidding. I know you inside out from our childhood. You are not the one to enjoy other people’s money. I accede you are doing your duty. But on your second point about your country’s interventions I can discuss with you endlessly, but not on the phone. All I can say right now is Bigland does nothing about peace. On the contrary it even sells weaponry to many countries thus supporting the wars. It encourages wars to benefit a few individuals and maintain their power position of supremacy. Its top shots poke their noses in all the wrong things. They discourteously impose their own screwed up and unwelcome brand of self-righteousness on rest of the world. Lately Bigland has created more enemies than friends. Unless your country demonstrates a regard for the people and culture of other courtiers, this trend will continue”
“OK. I give up. I know it’s impossible to argue with you on the topics you get passionate about. Now tell me why you rang me?”
“To discuss the second point, the very point I have gotten passionate about lately. I am very serious. And I need your help. Tell me when can you meet me in Desh?”
“You need not have to wait long. My annual vacation is due the next month. I have not visited my home after my becoming citizen here and my visit there is overdue.”
“Great. I look forward to our meeting. Bye.”
“Me too, bye.”
