I woke up with
a heavy head…Wait! I wasn’t supposed to be alive…I recollected the thick
blanket of smoke that day in 2015. Just one whiff and I knew it was just what I
had feared- Biochemical Warfare… Noxious fumes to ‘settle scores’. I wondered- Is
this my after-life? I looked around trying to gauge if I had been allotted a
place in Heaven or Hell! It looked like I was in a very sophisticated
futuristic world with hi-tech gadgets all around.
“Year 2215”-
the e-Calendar displayed.
“How have I
travelled 200 years into the Future?” asked my Brain.
“Because You
Are Explorer” answered the human or was it a machine?
“Oh you can
read my Brain-Waves!” I thought before I stated the same to the living or was
it a non-living thing in front of me...
“My name is
RerolpDotXe. I am a living-being…A Citizen of Planet Earth 2215 AD. I am in
charge of the Explorer Project. Planet Earth is in grave danger and needs HELP.
See this-”
ME: “But why?”
RerolpDotXe:
“Change
in Climate 30 times faster than at any time in Earth’s 65 million years.
Global
Temperature Rise of 15 Degrees Celsius.
Polar-Ice-Caps
have melted.
Sea-Water Level
has risen by 3 metres.
Many Cities
have Submerged.
Stress on
Terrestrial Eco-systems.
Many Species
are Extinct.
Fossil-Fuels
are over.
Ozone Layer is
93.5% Depleted.
Vector-Borne
Diseases.
Erratic
weather-Patterns”
ME: “This
sounds like major Dooms-Day. In our time, a rise of 2 degrees Celsius increased
civil wars by over 50%. That explains the conflict linked to Climate Change in
2015 when I died with most of the World’s population. Shifts in Climate are
strongly linked to human violence around the world.
How did you
bring me to life? Why have you selected me?”
RerolpDotXe:
“I
revived your soul and body through my Brain-Waves.
You are a Top
Explorer of 21st Century.
You have
explored the Whole World with your Tata Safari Storme.
You have
climbed Mountains.
Sailed Oceans.
You have
travelled around the World in 8 Days.

Your Blog rocks!
Planet Earth needs Miracles and I am sure you can do that as YOU,
ANITAEXPLORER, ‘believe in miracles’. People have become cynical. They have
stopped believing in miracles. I believe that only those who truly believe can achieve.”
ME: “Oh! You
know so much about Me! Powerful Brain-Waves indeed!”
I was totally
amazed when I found that RerolpDotXe had also revived two of my Idols- JRD Tata
& Marco Polo!
JRD Tata- Jehangir Ratanji Dadabhoy Tata
(29
July 1904 – 29 November 1993) was
a French-born Indian aviator and business magnate. He was India's first
licensed pilot. He is known as the father of Indian civil aviation. He founded
India's first commercial airline, Tata Airlines in 1932, which became Air India
in 1946. He directed the large Tata Group of companies for decades- Steel,
Engineering, Power, Chemicals and Hospitality. He maintained high ethical
standards - refusing to bribe politicians or use black money. In 1992, he was
awarded India's highest civilian award, the Bharat Ratna.
Can you imagine?
I, ANITAEXPLORER, was standing right in front of these two great men!
I can't express how honored and proud I felt!
The three of
us had been chosen to explore the Universe using the advanced technology,
superfast- AIEV-Tata Safari Storme.
AIEV is the Tata Safari
Storme 2215 Edition!
AIEV means All-In-1-Explorer-Vehicle
–
Spaceship+Aircraft+Land-Surface+Water-Surface+Submarine.
No
Non-Renewable Energy sources needed to run it; it works on Renewable source- Universe’s
Energy.
We were
expected to come up with the best solution for Planet Earth ASAP. I felt so
honored to be a part of this elite company; yet felt responsible at the same
time.
RerolpDotXe transferred his knowledge & powers to the three of us. We
could now communicate with any species in the Universe just with our
Brain-Waves…
Spiderman
Movie’s line- “With great power, comes
great responsibility” played in my mind.
The two
incredible gentlemen-JRD Tata and Marco Polo demanded that I lead our Unit. They
believed in Woman-power! I felt like SuperGirl!
They checked
all the accessories.
They made huge
lists of things to carry and loaded all the essentials in our AIEV.
We put on our
Explorer gear.
Our AIEV
looked stunning.
We boarded our
AIEV and made ourselves comfortable in the Leather-Seats. We safely strapped
the seat-beats.
Our AIEV took
off at 0.7 times the speed of light. AIEV steered clear or automatically
destroyed the obstacles on our path like-
Black Holes
Pulsars
Comets
Meteors
Planets
Satellites
There was
auto-firing and destruction of unnecessary objects on our path and
auto-avoidance of collision with planets and other important bodies… Phew! I
remembered all the sci-fi movies I had watched and the video-games I had
played. All this was happening in real-life!
There was a
world-class infotainment system that had us entertained. I listened to my
favourite Asha Bhosle, Lata Mangeshkar & Kishore Kumar Songs. JRD Tata and
Marco Polo also enjoyed them!
The superb
navigation system gave us info about what to expect. I had already fed the data
of what we need. AIEV was taking us to those places that had our requirements.
The first
stopover was a Planet that we named Waterland, as there was ‘Water Water Everywhere’
in all different forms. Marco Polo navigated our AIEV here while JRD Tata
communicated with the 10-Headed Hydra Beasts inhabiting the Planet. I
remembered Ravan and fantasized that they might be his descendants! Would you
believe me if I shared that the Beasts actually agreed! It seems their
ancestors, some sons of Ravan, had fleed in the Pushpak Viman to Waterland! We
collected ‘Fresh Water’ from there. It was no ordinary water. Putting the same
sample in our Oceans on Planet Earth would restore them to their previous
glory- purity as well as Polar Ice-Caps!
Got to use our AIEV's ample lights and lamps while travelling!
Next we landed
on Ozonia Planet. There was such an abundance of Ozone there. Our AIEV made us
wear the gas-masks that automatically dropped down as the level of Oxygen had
fallen very low. When I wondered how the Queen of Ozonia looked so fresh, she
Brain-Waved me- that she always had Ozone-Facial done multiple times a day!!!
But, their Carbon-Monoxide, Carbon-Dioxide, Sulphur-Dioxide, Methane, Nitrogen
Dioxide etc. levels had fallen much to their disappointment. Luckily, JRD Tata
had filled cylinders with compressed poisonous gases of the world! I now understood
why he had been so particular to load those cylinders in our AIEV! I promptly
handed them over & released the excess poisonous gases in Ozonia. We
refilled Ozone in all those cylinders and loaded on our AIEV. This much would be
enough to 100% repair Planet Earth’s Ozone-Layer!
Then as we
were travelling, suddenly, our AIEV experienced strong magnetic waves and got
attracted to another Asteroid that was NOT in our agenda. Door Visor protected
us from the harmful radiation.
Why had our
AIEV been ‘pulled’? As AIEV landed, we found the planet had muck and slush and
was trapping our AIEV… Marco Polo immediately activated our AIEV’s navigation.
The Nudge-Guard was helpful.
Then, we saw a
mammoth creature that was lying in deep pain. It had been badly hit and needed
immediate attendance. That’s why it had captured our AIEV with its powers as it
sensed friendly souls. I opened the expandable Cargo Basket and elongated it to
fit the creature, who guided our AIEV to the Space-Hospital. All of us felt
nice with our Good Samaritan act.
The creature
gave us ‘Happiness, Hope, Faith, Trust, Kindness, Compassion, Calmness, Love,
Peace…’ all these emotions packed in a mammoth parcel that we gratefully loaded
in the Cargo basket. It’s enough to save Planet Earth from the negative
feelings like cynicism, hatred, distrust etc.! It's much better than 'Pandora's Box'! Opening the parcel on Planet Earth, would spread all positive feelings and emotions all over...
We discovered
the treasures of the Universe with our AIEV. We realized the potential of the
energy waiting to be explored.
Apart from all the above 'gifts', for Planet Earth, we also got greenery, fresh Oxygen, smiles and a lot many things that made RerolpDotXe proud of us. When we returned, a grand reception awaited us- the Explorers! The Explorer Project was successful!

In this way, I, ANITAEXPLORER,
along with my two great Explorer team-mates solved Planet Earth’s problems with excellence!
I bow to GOD- the greatest Explorer who helps small Explorers like me! “The One who allows the storms also brings the
rainbows.”

Lovely post Anita!
ReplyDeleteP.S: I think the pics need a bit resizing :)
Thanks Bushra!
DeleteYes, a part of my 'Best-Selling Book'- The adventures of ANITAEXPLORER overlaps with the Comments! As time is up, won't edit to resize as can't risk disqualification! :)
Hey,
DeleteI think pictures can be resized! That won't lead to disqualification :)
Thanks Bushra!
DeleteYes, I resized 2 pics after posting the query and getting favourable reply on IndiBlogger's Forum! :)
The other option would have been to increase the page size so that the text and pics no longer overlap as the right panel would have moved further right & accessed with scroll-bar! :)
I think you got all the Safari Explorer attributes in this one :) Best of luck
