Hey guys….I am back again… plzzz do tell me if any improvement is needed….
7 days have passed… Navni have learnt how to use their wands properly and some spells as well… Infact many… they were quick learners and after all they were being trained by the Charms Professor of Heacte Ansh Murthy himself…
After training…
Ansh:Nandu and Navu… You have learnt all the important spells for now… You can use them to protect yourself and others… Rest will be taught to you professionally in the college…
Navya: Thanks Dad… Daddy… Where is Amms??
Ansh:At college… Why??
Nandu: Dad… I can’t wait now… There is still a whole week left… Can I please visit college once? Plz plz plz… I want to…
Navya: yaaa dad me as well…
Abhi looks on suspiciously at Nandu…
Ansh: Ok go… But you can’t go alone… Someone who is known by Hecate must accompany you…
Navya: Who works there??
Ansh: Naa… Not necessary… You can go with Abhi as well… Or any other student who is your senior… But definitely not alone…
Nandu:But Dad… I want to go now…
Navya: me too…dad plzz take us…plzzzz
Mansi: Ansh… I am going college… Amma has some work and me too… Plz look after these three… Specially this devil ( Nandini)… Just see that she doesn’t summons anything… I don’t want my crockery broken…
Nandu:Mom!!!
Ansh, abhi and Navya giggle… Ragini glares them…
Nandu:Ok I have a surprise for you… I am accompanying you to the college…
Mansi:No.. you are not…
Nandu:Dad!!
Ansh:Take her na… She wants to see the college…and Navu as well take them…
Mansi:No… I can take Navu but not her I know she will do some mischief there and will create problem for me and amma…
Nandu:No I won’t… I promise on myself…
Abhi was drinking water meanwhile but he starts coughing hearing Nandini promising on herself…
Nandu:What??
Abhi:You just now promised that you won’t do mischief in college…!!
Nandu: Stop over reacting bhai… I really want to see the college from inside…
Mansi: Ok… Come but I am warning you…
Nandu:Ya… I know…
Mansi: hmmm…come navu…
They three leave leaving Abhi in thoughts…
Ansh: What happened to you??
Abhi:I sense some problems coming in my direction…
Ansh: Nandu??
Abhi:I guess so…
Ansh gulps…
Hecate college of wizarding and witchcraft…
Navni and Mansi are on the entrance door…
Ficus: Hey professor… I.D plz…
Mansi gives him her wand…
Nandu: She works here since long still you want her I.D??
Ficus :Ms. Junior Murthy… It’s the rule made by senior Murthy… I am bound to follow it…
Nandu: BTW see… What I have… (She shows him her wand) it’s one of those made from your branches… Great na…
Ficus is surprised… He hands over wand back to Mansi and looks at her… Worry visible in his eyes…
Navya(whisperes):shhhhh… Nandu…
Mansi: navu…nandu… Go inside…. I will come..
Navni nods and goes…
Ficus :She is—??
Mansi nods :But she knows nothing about it… And I won’t let her Know… V.P Malhotra has also not told her son… I have decided that my daughter also won’t know it…
Ficus :But you can’t change her destiny… I told VP Malhotra also and I am telling you also… They are destined for it… And no one can run away from their destiny…
Mansi goes from there to search Navni…
Navni are spellbound seeing the assembly hall… The house points scale and the four house symbols fascinate her…
Mansi: What are you seeing?
Navya: It’s so amazing Mom!!
Mansi: Of course… Just a week more and you will be coming here every day…
Navya: mom…I want to be in Athena…
Mansi smiles…
Nandu: Maa… I will be an Arete Tenant… It’s speciality is bravery… And I will be the bravest in this college… You know na… Daredevil I am…
Mansi worries hearing her :No Nandu…. You are intelligent as well… You will be in Athena… The house of intelligence… along with Navu u both can be together naa…
Nandu:Why are we arguing Mom… Let VP Malhotra’s wand decide that… But you know what… I am pretty sure that I will be in bhai’s house…
Navya(whispers to mansi):she won’t listen mom…leave this stupid…
Nandini was looking up and walking…
Mansi: Look down and walk Nandu… You will get bumped into someone… NANDU!!!
Nandu:Ouch!!! I am so sorry… I didn’t mean to hurt you and I think I am the one who got hurt…
Nyonika smiles :It’s ok… BTW… I was only able to save your wand… Here it is…
She helps her get up and forwards her the wand… Just when she notices her wand and observes it carefully…
Nandu: Ah… I know that it’s fascinating and alluring but Can I have it back please??
Nyonika comes out of trance and nods… She gives her back her wand…
Nandu: BTW I am Nandini… Nandini Murthy … Professor Murthy’ daughter…”
Nyonika looks at Mansi who smiles sheepishly and glares Nandini for chattering like that in From of Her…
Nyonika: It’s ok professor nothing to be embarrassed about… She is really sweet… BTW… Nyonika Malhotra… Vice Principal of this institution…
Nandini is bewildered… She knew only her name and met for the first time with her and was uttering don’t know what nonsense…
Nandu: I am sorry VP Malhotra… But you see I can’t help speaking… It is something which characterises me… So please don’t mind my nonsense…
Nyonika laughs :It’s ok…
Navya:And I am her twin sister Navya….Navya Murthy…Nice to meet u…VP Malhotra…
Nyonika smiles….
Mansi :Sorry VP Malhotra … Navni come on… We have to meet Amma…
Nandu: But Mom I want to see the college… Not Amms office… You go… I will be here…
Mansi: But how will you roam alone… You will be lost… No… You are coming with me…
Nandu: But Mom–
Nyonika:It’s ok Professor Murthy… Anyways I am free now…. I will help her out…
Nandu: Thank you so much… See Mom… Now you can go…and navu u are going or coming with us???
Nav:hmm..I will go with mom…
Just then they sees some of the ghosts moving and gets fascinated… Nandu thinks something and goes to them…followed by Navya
Mansi hesistates :You are not understanding what storm you are willing to keep with you…
Nyonika: Don’t worry… She can’t be more mischievous than my Children…
Mansi: She is equal to 20 Mukti Malhotra and Cabir Malhotra respectively…
Nyonika: But she looks so innocent…
Mansi: But is a devil from inside…
Just then they see all the ghosts leaning on to her foot as if they are praying her…
A ghost with a cap “Boss… This Richard will always be in your service boss… Just a whistle and me and my whole gang will bow down in your feet…
While Nandini stands there with attitude rotating her wand like a don…and Navya beside her with her hand on her forehead..
Nyonika and Mansi gulp…
Mansi :All the best VP Malhotra…come Navu let’s go…hold my arm…
She says and As soon as Navya holds her arms apparates…
Nyonika smiles nervously and thinks :Just now she entered the college and took in charge of the ghosts’ head Richard… Don’t know what else we will witness…
Nyonika calls out Nandini…
Nandini:Yes Professor
Nyonika: Let’s go to my cabin… I have to keep these documents there and then we will take a round of Hecate … Till then would you like some cold coffee??
Nandini: I never refuse food…
She smiles… They first go to the dining hall…
Nyonika: Two cold coffees with choco ice cream and choco chips…
Nandu:And a chocolate cigar as well….
Nyonika laughs :So you know a bit about college…
Nandu: Of course… Bhai told us much… And I am so excited to see food coming out of the table…
Just then two huge cups of cold coffee emerges from the table… Nandini claps out of amazement… Nyonika adores her…
Nyonika thinks :She is just like a child…. Cute innocent and mischievous…
Nandini reads her mind while making an eye contact with her :Perfect… Mission impression successful… Now my this innocence will help me find out about Mr. Mind Reader… Only she can help me… First I thought of Amms but no… She will read my mind and I won’t be able to hide anything from her… And I don’t want to involve her… I have to solve it all alone… Sorry VP Malhotra… You are so good but I need to know him… So I have to do this… I promise I will apologize to you as soon as I find Mr.Mystery…
They both walk to Nyonika’s cabin…
An old man’s painting in yogic posture asks for the password…
Nyonika: Come on… This cabin belongs to me…
Old man shows her a thumbs up and they both enter the cabin…
Nandini giggles :He forgot that you sit here…
Nyonika laughs :I think age has begun to show the effects on him…
They both laugh…
Nandini: BTW… I should not ask…but my curiosity!! I can’t help it… What are these documents for..??
Nyonika: These are your forms… The students who are selected for this batch of Hecate … Means your batch…
Nandu: I never saw my form… I think Dad filled it on my behalf… Can I please see it now??
Nyonika takes out her form and gives her…
Nandini sees her form… Her passport size photo on the form is moving… It smiles and winks mischievously…
She giggles seeing it… Nyonika smiles seeing her…
Nandini reads her form and reads a column there ‘ special ability ‘ and it was filled as reads mind…
Nandini’s POV
Bingo… I got the way… The admission forms… These will help me… Yippie…. Mr. Mystery was somewhat of my age… Plus one and two acceptable… He cannot be more than that…. Now you cannot be hidden for long Mr. Mind Reader… Nandini Murthy is going to find you out…
