Pre Script:
Please read Previous Episode
Reader discretion is requied.Please avoid reading if you get easily distressed.

"Its getting late Daddy" yelled Meghana.
"Mirru..2 min's am coming da" replied Sudhir wearing his sock.
Soon they reached the school and Meghana got down the car and went past the school gate.
"Mirra.." Sudhir came running/shouting behind.
Crouched nearer to her and said "Dear, i forgot this" and he pulled a beautiful butterfly necklace from his pocket and put that to Meghana's neck.They waved bye to each-other.
Meghana entered her class and all the pupils were busy talking in groups.
Sameera came running towards Meghana and said "Hey lets stand together in line for the prayer" and noticing the necklace said "Wow.Who got you this i like it very much." and continued in a jealously tone "Can i wear it"
"No.Daddy gave this to me.I wont give to anybody" said Meghana in a upset tone and an instinct to protect something.
Samy really got upset and said "Even to your best friend" and she started to walk back somewhere back in the prayer line.

Shanmugam lift open the man-hole and they found it to be filled with sand down under four feet from surface.
Josh looking in tot he man-hole said "Hey Shanmugam,can you call some of your friends now and as ask them to bring some more shovels.We need to dig this out.I will give 1000 Rs for each of them"
"Josh.What the hell you doing, lets come morning.Its too late in the night" said Samy looking at the full moon.
Josh looked at Shanmugam and he started to ran to call upon some of his friends.
"Samy.We have good lights here.I want to see what's in there" he said.
Soon Shanmugam came with two of his friends and four of them started digging the manhole.

It was 3 PM and it was play time class.
Meghana was sitting on a bench put outside in the play grouond,while all the kids were playing.Sammera never spoke a word from morning.She knew she is really upset on her about the Butterfly necklace.
Meghana removed the necklace from her neck and decided to share it with Samy.All of sudden someone pulled it from her hand and it was Aditya.

Shanmugam and his friends widened the man-hole to be more circular for four feet and started digging at the center.They digged real faster and within two feet of digging their shovel hit something harder and they excavated a md ball and started clearing with bare hands.
The mud covered ball like thing cleared to appear as a bony skeleton of a human head, and  of a small kid.Samy cried out louder looking it.
Soon she started vomiting."Sir,look at this" exclaimed Shanmugam.They continued digging and they pulled the complete skeleton of a little kid from the man-hole.

Aditya was running with the necklace laughing and giggling.Meghana started to Chase him and indeed she ran faster.Aditya threw the necklace on to a bush along pathway between a restroom and a school block.
Meghan ran towards and picked the necklace.She smiled to herself and looked up and she could see the moon already in the day.It was going to be a full moon night.
She smiled to herself and wanted to share the necklace as soon as possible with Samy.
She happily placed a step forward looking at the moon and descended down on to a open man hole.She was absorbed by the hole and got her body ensnarled at depth of 7 feet.This hole was constructed by the school as a way to reach the underground water supply system.It was 10 feet deep.They stopped the work due to some reason and the hole was kept open negligently.

Veera who was working on the fixing the restroom window came rushing as he saw Meghana tripped on to the man-hole.He looked in to the hole but it was dark he couldn't see anything.Meghana could see him from down below.She was in a terrible shock that she couldn't shout back for help.Veera ran towards the Principal office.Mrs.Lalitha was busy talking to Dr.Krishna.Veera explained and all three of them rushed to the man-hole.They looked at it.Meghana saw the three of them from down below.
"Madam.Shall i call someone, police or fire rescue, we can dig out her quickly" said Veera.

Krishna checking his watch said "Wait Veera.Calm down.Lalitha listen to me carefully.Plese dont panic.We need to make a better decision now.We have only 5 min's before the school bell rings for the day,by then all the parents would be here at this playground to pick their kids.We cannot make a scene here.And if you remember last week in parent/teachers meet two of the parents complained about this open hole.We neglected.And am sure the impact of the fall would have killed the kid there is no poing in organizing a rescue operation.It will only lead to closing down of the school"

Krishna said "Veera cover this hole as soon as possible with Sand.And tomorrow pull out the man hole lid in the back of the school.Paint it red and cover it.Lalitha dont worry i shall come up with a plan for this.Lets get out of this place now"
Veera looked at them .He seemed not convincing."Sir.I cant do this sir.Poor little girl"
Krishna said "How much you need to do this sin"
Within in few minutes Veera started to cover the hole with sand.

Josh and Thiru started to sweat and their breaths were labored.
Samy couldn't console herself she felt terrible looking at the skeleton. "Oh my god.Why all this is happening to me.Why should i see such things" she cried
She examined it closely and  looked at the left hand arm and between the finger bones held the Butterfly Necklace.

Wow... brilliantly written. I was expecting a murder or something more sinister...though this is more nerve shackling...waiting for the final part

dakaltiz said...

machi...switching back and forth present and past was good...though the plot isn't strong enough to convince me...herez a girl that students/friends/teachers see everyday and making her non-existent after she gets trapped isn't strong enough....May be I'll change my opinion when u release the final part ...:)

Let's c...

logic said...

@Me:
Thanks for dropping by.

@Daks:
Dai Thanks for the critics comment da..
I thought i did some declarations in first part of this
http://lateralplane.blogspot.com/2012/06/beyond-explanations-3.html
May be u missed it to digest..please read it..
also since u like Naan-E very much i thought u wudnt care abt logic much Machi..eppadii

logic said...

@ Daks :Machi the schools are not like the ones as we studied ..thats wat i tried to eplxain in earlier parts...
If somebody is not showing up to school its not a big deal machi...with the world running at this pace nobody would pay much attention on that..

Poorana said...

Agree with u dina... Let's see if mr logic comes up with more logical explanation in his final episode ;)

dakaltiz said...

@Logic
Machi...Aditya's case wasn't enough to justify...is what i'm saying......Mr.Sudhir could have made many as witness to prove Meg..existed illaiya?

Ithellam ethukku solrenaa...last part la oru nalla twist a ethir pakren... ;)

logic said...

@Daks and Poorana:
The characters are carefully placed so that the only Claimant for Mira is her father.And he was shut off earlier in the stage of finding her.And that's it no one is gona care abt her further except Samy.

Poorana said...

Just re- read all the episodes... I have only one concern samy's mother talk abt another girl called preethi.. The min they had a doubt abt samy's friendship as a mother her first reaction would be to ask this girl who is samy's classmate... Lifestyle has changed but still when it comes to ur own blood u won't be this careless and end up leaving ur kid to a rehab centre... Anyways all other characterisation and narration is very good... Waiting for ur final episode to give more comments ;)

logic said...

The crux of the Story line is :

The Management along with Police shut off Sudhir and put him in the asylum the only trigger to find Meghanas whereabouts
Why would anybody else question or care about this further?

Someone wants to let the world know about this..and the some one is none other that Mira..and the medium is Samy..
More exciting things in last part wathc for it

:) thanks for the analysis !!

dakaltiz said...

I get the story line da....but death in the school setting is something that's not convincing to me... ;)

Narration of-course is awesome...no doubt about it... hope u end this series with a bang..

All these comments are for u to come up with the Best! :)

Ramesh said...

@Logic : No logic in ur story

Ramesh said...

@Logic : IMHO your story has become too long and too complicated for novices like me.. very difficult to keep track of all characters.. ippodhiki only thing i remember is, there was a pot hole in meghana's school and meghana's school principal fell down in it.. correct-aa
