Planet Aphrotip

Emperor Vendanta was entrusted with the responsibility of ruling planet Aprhrotip; an inhospitable planet but everyone on Planet Earth wanted to go to the planet Aphrotip because of a special spice that grew there - Vital. Vital could increase the life span, vitality and could extend human youth.

Rajdeep was an Astronaut. His wife Anamika read about the spice Vital and wanted to go there. Anamika went to her husband's chamber where he was busy researching about Planets. Anamika said "I want to go to Planet Aphrotip"

Rajdeep asked "But,why?"

Anamika said "I just read about a special and rare spice Vital and Planet Aphrotip. Let's go to the planet Aphrotip. I want to get hold of that spice and then return to planet Earth. Also, I would like to grow that spice here in our garden"

Rajdeep said "I am aware of the planet and the spice. First of all, the planet is inhospitable; second, the plant grows in a special type of sand which is available there only and it grows from the seed, and the seeds are there in the emperor's palace and nobody can enter there"

After a pause he further added, "I will take you somewhere else, but let's drop the plan this time."

Anamika did not agree and forced Rajdeep to go there. Rajdeep agreed. As such, they decided to go there. Rajdeep was not aware of the trouble that awaited him. 

Emperor Vedanta was aware that Anamika and Rajdeep were coming to the planet. As such, he summoned Balveer Rai to the court. Emperor said "Balveer, I want them dead or alive. Go there with the guard and bring them before me."

Balveer Rai said "As you command, my lord"

As soon as they landed, they found themselves confronting Balveer and guards. Luckily, Anamika was trained in warfare and she took the lead. Single-handedly, she killed everyone but Balveer. Balveer somehow managed to take Balveer along with him.

The emperor imprisoned him and ordered everyone out there to kill both of them; as soon as she reaches the palace. 

Anamika decided to free her husband and kill the emperor. She disguised herself as a merchant because she saw that various merchants were there in the market who used to come from various cities to the capital to trade. She took shelter in a house and found out that the inhabitants did not like their king. As such, she decided to train them in warfare during night.

With their assistance, she managed to kill the emperor, Balveer Rai, and Guards. She realized that it was because of the greed of spice that she reached there and as such, she destroyed the spice Vital and burnt the palace itself.  

They both then returned to Planet Earth.
