Jungle Mayhem - Part 3

Okay, before you start pulling out your hair, thinking about what would happen to us in the next adventure, just stop!!

Now enough chit-chatting, let me tell you about the next part of the story! So as I told you previously, we were going into that tunnel. We walked and walked and walked. Mr. Roy leaned towards me, and said, "Do you have a plan for us to escape ?!" I denied. "Not till yet!" "I have an idea, let's just run away without telling these people. We'll just run and quickly get in the bus." Julia said.

Okay, I think Julia never takes the "Think twice before saying anything" quote seriously. The plan was kind of okay. If we would run away just without telling someone, there was a 99.98% chance those tribals could actually trap us again. And then what would happen? Without any notice, they would tie us with those sticks again! And without any further due, they would fry and eat us!!

"No! The plan is bad!" I replied. Julia just sighed. "We need to think of a REAL and NICE plan!!" Mr. Roy whispered. I nodded my head.

"Let's walk with them. We can plan later!" Julia suggested. We all agreed and started walking.

The leader started giggling at us, "Hehehe! You can't escape now!!"

I just rolled my eyes and kept staring at him.

After some time, we finally stopped walking. Phew!! My legs were so tired, I thought if I wouldn't stop walking, they would just say, "Dear Reva, kindly have mercy on us!! We are tired!!!!!" 

You never know! Anyways, we had stopped walking, but there was a track ahead of us. There was a small and old train. "Sit in here!" one of the tribals demanded. The train was old and it was also dusty. A little too dusty... if you ask me! Julia started sneezing uncontrollably, "Aaaaaaachoooooooo!!!!!! Aaaaaaachoooooooo! ! Aaaa....Aaaaaaachooooooo!!! Does anyone have a handkerchief??!!" 

Then we sat on the train and it started moving. Then suddenly, a robotic voice whispered, "Do you want some smoothies!" "Yeah, why no-" I stopped. Point number one, the train was ancient and I didn't expect it to have a robot built in it. Point number 2, I didn't really (actually) know whether this smoothie was fresh or not. So, I finally denied it! "N-no, thank you, Mr. Robot." "The name's Robotachicklepolishavareonchadiggie" it replied. 

My jaw dropped. Was that a name or a tongue twister? !! "Okay, whatever, Mr. Chicken boogie!!" Julia shrieked. "It's not Chicken boogie! ! It's Robotachicklepolishavareonchadiggie!!" The robot screamed.

The leader told us that his name was Sharonfhg. What's with the name of these people?! Such difficult names! I didn't know how to pronounce it, so I politely asked him whether I could just call him 'Mr. Leader' or as 'Sharon'. He nodded his head. After about some 2 hours, we finally reached. And, the tunnel had ended. Good! No more walking, no more ancient train-traveling! "Follow me!" a tribal bellowed. So, we walked and walked and walked and walked and walked..................

"This Jungle is pretty nice!" Mr. Roy said, gasping in amazement. "Yes, I suppose it is," I said, in agreement. There were many fruits, hanging on the branches of the tree. We saw a different kind of tree, so we asked Mr. Roy, after all, he was our guide! "Mr. Roy, which tree is this? Mr. Roy? Hello??" Julia asked. Mr. Roy had disappeared! "Oh no!!" Where is he?" I exclaimed, worried.

"I think he got lost." Julia guessed. For the first time, I thought Julia was right. "Excuse me, Mr. Shark, our guide has got lost!!! Do you know where he is?" Julia asked Sharonfhg.

"Why does this girl spell everyone's name wrong?!!!" He thundered. "So, what's your name??!!" Julia bellowed. "It's Sharonfhg!!" he replied back. "Why is the name so difficult??!!!!!!" Julia screamed. I wanted to shout, I wanted to scream. Instead of looking for the guide, they were fighting!! I mean, is that the way?!!

They were busy fighting, so I decided to go alone and look for Mr. Roy myself.

I walked past the trees and the leaves, and then I bumped into a girl. She was tall and she looked the same age as me. "Salut! (Translation: Hello!)" the girl said.

I think she was French. And, luckily, I knew how to speak French! "Salut! Quel est votre nom? Je m'appelle Reva!(Translation: Hello! What is your name? I am Reva!)" I said. "Ravi de vous rencontrer! Je m'appelle Veronica! Voyagez-vous dans cette jungle? d'où venez-vous?(Translation: Nice to meet you! My name is Veronica! Are you travelling in this jungle? Where do you come from?)" she replied.

I politely said, "Oui! Je viens de l'Inde! Tu parles anglais?(Translation: Yes! I come from India! Do you speak English?)" She nodded her head.

"Have you seen a man who's very thin? He was wearing a brown jumpsuit." I asked. She said, "No, I didn't!"

"You came here alone?" I asked her. "Actually I came here with my family! I'd got a project to collect some different types of leaves and flowers and prepare a report. So, I asked them whether I could go alone and collect some. They agreed, so I came here." she replied. 

"We got caught by the tribals of this jungle, and, they want to eat us!!!!" I said, sadly. "Well, I heard that they are very vicious and minacious!!" she warned me. 

Then suddenly, I and Veronica heard a ruffling noise coming from the bushes. I thought it was a wild animal, but I was wrong. A human popped out of the bushes. It was.............. MR. ROY, OUR GUIDE! Thank God we found him! "Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!! Thank God you came here!!" he shrieked.

He shrieked really loudly, so I had to take a step back. Otherwise, my ears would go deaf!!!

"How did you end up in here?!" I asked. "I got lost......! My shoelaces were really loose. So, I thought, I might trip while walking, that's why I'd stopped to tie them." he answered. "Then you guys just ran ahead of me! And I couldn't find you!"

Okay, Okay, my hands have really worn out from typing so much!! If I type more, my hands may just fall off!!

Do you mind if I tell you more in the next part?!
