A Wild Encounter

Scene 1 : Prologue

I didnt like whats going around me. I just wanted to leave everything and everyone. Wanted to be alone. Hmm..! at least for some days. Till I get used to the things around me. I planned to move Into The Wild alone. Informed to some of my friends. Packed the stuff in as in this list.
1)2 Bed Sheets
2)100m long Rope
3)1L bottles - 3
4)Junk Food [ Which my mom made for Ugadi ]
5)Compass
6)Chalk Powder
7)Knife
8)First Aid Kit
9)Extra Pair of dress
10)Camera, 2 mobiles, Chargers, Ipod, Hand Video Game.

One of my friend, saw the list and asked me The trip is meant to be wild what's meant with these Electronic Goods. Removed all electronic stuff. He was interested to come with me. But I resisted as I wanted it be lonely expedition. So we had a plan. We went to a village nearby parked our Bike there and headed towards Opposite Direction. Deal was to reach back at the time of Sun Set. If anyone fails the other calls for help and searches for the lost one.
It Sounded terrifying, I know that its risky and wasn't what i planned So liked it. We started at 8 AM. I was heading North East. My friend towards South West. I was enjoying the wild, Heading into the Woods remembering Robert Frost's Poem
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep

I could barely see the sun, playing Hide and Seek with the Sun under the shade of trees, Making music from the Fallen Dried Leaves.

Scene 2 : Gut Breaker
I was in forest moving with lot of Guts. Guts that came out of Joy. I think after 2 Hours from the start.  The music of Dried Leaves was Different from the one at start. I slowed down but the Sound didn't. Paused for a moment and walked cautiously towards the Source of Sound. Couldn't find anything when I saw in Binoculars. Hiding behind every tree moved carefully. Finally behind a tree I could hear it Loud and Clear. Donno what i am gonna see if I turn my Head. First time I realized I am in forest and Forest do have Wild Animals. Fully tensed, had a Peek from behind the Tree to see nothing. Relaxed. Wait a min the sounds still coming. Looked down. That was huge. May be 7 feet long. It ate some thing, I could see the bulged stomach. Remembered that snakes aren't fast when they eat some thing. Ran faster to save my self, lost all bravery with only 1 thing in mind. I am around Wild Animals.

Scene 3 : Lost 
I was leaving traces of Chalk Powder to know my way. But After seeing the snake I didn't leave any and ran madly in ignorance of where i was running. I yelled "Bull Shit, I am Lost". I could hear my echo saying the same. I didn't want to do a thing. Sat and started eating what i brought. Was checking the surroundings, when I saw my rope and the Hill beside, an Idea struck in my mind. If I climb the Hill I may find my path.

Scene 4 : Messed Up

With a Hope that I could find my path back home, said to my self lets start trekking. I had no anchor for the rope so i had to make to the hill top barely. It was a small one with 1 KM slope. Made it using 2 hard sticks to keep my balance. Looked around and found a white spot. Is it mine? Searched around it. Wow found 2 more. Deeply looked. "Yippeee I found my way" i shouted. Turned back to see a River. Its was so beautiful, couldn't stop my self going there. It was flowing at greater speeds. Wanna check its depth. Used a stick It submerged. Used a big one, almost my height, It also submerged. With curiosity dragged a big Eucalyptus Tree almost 4 times my height. Dragged with all my strength. Oh God it also submerged. Calculated that it would be more then 25 Feet deep. Didn't risk my self staying there for long. I was exhausted after dragging the tree. Hardly made it the the Hill Top again. Rested for some time. Wind was blowing. I felt like wind kissed me. A smile came from my face. Later wind blew heavier, felt like a Hard Kiss. And later it was no more a Kiss, It was like a Kick. Stood up to to see Thunders far away. Thunder Strikes are more often in forests. I had the make it back before it rains and In forest it gets darker before only and things will be worse if it rains. Ran down the hill, Tumbled, Rolled Down and fell down at the Bottom. Took some heavy breaths. Stood Up and fell down again. Shouted "My leg". I messed up with it which was already Injured.

Scene 5 : Timely Help

I could barely walk. With the help of 2 sticks collected earlier, I was limping fastly, so that i could make it before it rains. Crossed the woods with great difficulty and with fear of Animals too. Finally reached the plain grasslands. Almost there. 1 more KM, No hurdles Started hopping in middle to be fast. Suddenly my stick struck a rock fell down with face first. Couldn't move a Bit. Gave up everything. Thinking of Death. Some of the Things going in my mind.

1) Foxes may eat me Alive.

2)Snakes Crawling over me.

3)Eagles Flying above me.

4)Remembering my Best Goals in Soccer, The Victory of the Volley Ball Tournament, and My best Cricket Moments.

5)Thinking about my past best moments with Parents, Friends, and Even my God Given sister.

6)Thinking of the Mistakes I have done.

7)Lost in Thoughts about my Girl whom I desperately wanted to see. Wanna Leave her a Note. Had no Pen, paper. Moved a bit to grab the Knife and Wrote "Love U Bubbliieee" on the ground and Fell down.

Suddenly Heard a Noise. A wild animal running towards me to have its meal, thats what i thought. But It was my friend, He followed my tracks and Found me. We moved slowly shared my moments. He too shared his. He was lucky in spotting a Bear far away and heard some gunshots thus withdrawing this expedition in a Dilemma whether they are Police or Naxals. Its Getting darker, winds blew heavily. Finally reached the bike and drank some Glucose.

Scene 6 : Dark Side of Nature

We were driving our bike towards the Main Road. The Winds were blowing heavily in opposite direction. My friend made it with great effort to the main road. After then he missed accidents with the 2 vehicles which moved the very next moment. I asked to stop the bike and Enquired whats wrong. Saw his eyes, fully red. He took all the dust into his eyes. It was my turn to drive. Cleaned his eyes and tied a wet cloth to his eyes. I'm not that heavy. Remembering my past accident I was moving at 50 kmph. But the wind is too heavy that bike's going out of control. Slowed down and moved carefully. The worst bike drive I ever had.

Scene 7 : The Bottom Line

Rode our way back to the town successfully. Without any Hesitation stopped directly at the Hospital. Cleaned our Muddy Faces. Had his eyes checked, thank god they are ok. Checked my leg. Walked in front of the doctor 3-4 times. Bull shit..! He asked to check it up in some Multi-Specialty Hospital. Worried about my leg :(

It was a Great experience for me. Increased my love towards some people, decreased hatred towards those whom i hated earlier. Sorted out my mistakes. Hope I can make them right. I guess this Trip's gonna bring something New out of me.
