The Cunning Elude

Dear readers, have you ever wondered what if the person who kidnaps you; directs a cunning elude (escape) and even turns out to be one of your caring ones?  

If yes, then how was your fictitious world going on?

To find out about one of those realms of mine, read this story about a nine-year-old boy who struggles to have a reunion with his parents and even ends up having met a caring one in life!

STORYTIME!

It's just three years ago, that the '12 Damp street' was a very gloomy and mysterious place to be in. The place involved a lot of crazy mobs doing illegal activities and even 'big crimes' took place in the area. There used to be numerous jute sacs scattered here and there; which were filled with money, precious stones, coins, and a lot of mysterious stuff including kids! (in unconscious-state)

So, was a boy; who was not more than nine years old, packed inside one of the many large sacs present in the area. 

He was going through such an unconsciousness that, in case, he wakes up, he would neither be able to recall his name nor that of his parents'. Besides, he was not even having the ability to fight with any of the gangsters as he was too young for it, and secondly; at that moment, his eyes laid close. 

Then, all of a sudden, the boy's eyes opened up a bit, and as he saw that dark and gloomy imprisonment; he became horror-struck. He could hear various screams that were coming from the site (the area around him).

At that moment, he was aware of the fact that he had been kidnapped by a dangerous mob or gang. But, he had no clue of what he should be doing to plan a successful elude or escape. 

After a couple of perplexing minutes, he glided his hand around the pocket of his pant; and as he did that, he could sense a weird kind of pain. He felt as if he had touched a cactus-spine. 

After trying hard to pluck that spine-sort-of-thing from his pocket, he was successful in doing so. As he held the spine in his hand, he found out that it looked like a sharp, thin, little knife. 

Then, hoping to find something useful in the other pocket too, he glided his hand in it, plucked that stuff too, and found a couple of biscuits. 

However, if the sac hadn't been a bit large for his size and if, his hands were tied with ropes, then he wouldn't be able to move his hands freely. 

Next, he ate half of a biscuit and left the other bits for the upcoming days.

Then, 10-15 minutes later, a notion struck his mind, which was indeed a good one. According to this, he could use that thin knife (obtained from his pocket) for making a small hole in the sac so that he would be able to spy over the gangsters. The kid was quite smart and was determined to plan out a cunning elude. He, then, carved a very tiny hole in the sac and as he peeped outside, he could see that hardly a couple of mob-guards stood near him. 

Delighted by his progress, the kid closed his eyes and thought of having a nap (in the sac itself). 

However, he didn't know that he won't be able to make any considerable progress in the upcoming days. 

Then, as said before, several days passed and the child's hope of escaping from the place turned into a dream. This saddened him.

But, who knew that help was to come to him in the form of a mysterious-angel! 

Just after a week of that delighted-nap-thing, the kid heard someone opening the tight knots of the sac. The kid was startled by the noises that were being made by the person. 

As the sac got opened, the kid could see a teenager with a wide smile on his face. To the kid, the teenage boy looked strange and his intentions were hard to judge. 

Then, the teenager took charge of the kid. Furthermore, sneaking from the mob-guards, the teenager took the nine-year-old kid to a safe place and directed him with a lot of information about the 'Damp Area'.The major points of their talk included, ''the reason behind the kidnapping of the kid and some, escape-from- Damp-plans. At that time, the kid learned that his name was Jack and the teenage boy, David, was someone who lived in his locality. The teenager (David) was responsible for the kidnapping of Jack; and (David) was also working with the gangsters. Moreover, David didn't want to ruin his little friend's life. (as David even told Jack that, previously, both of them were colony friends). Also, the person who had put a couple of biscuits and that thin knife in the kid's pockets was none other than David, he did so because he didn't want the kid to lose hope of planning an elude." 

Likewise, David knew everything about the area and taking an advantage of the same, he sneaked himself and the kid from one of the many gates of the area and dropped him at his home in his vehicle.

The kid's parents were very happy to see Jack home. Their delight was completely inexpressible!

However, David had confessed his crime in front of Jack's parents and to his surprise, Jack's parents were not that furious at him. They were pleased by his kindness and even told him that they will take their police case back and won't even inform the police or courts about him.

At that moment, Jack was still not able to recognize the house, the place, and even his parents; so for resolving this issue, he (Jack) was given a special kind of liquid by David, which he (David) called the 'Dot-Damp-Liquid'; to drink, so that John gets back all of his lost memories.

Also, David asked the family to shift to a different location so that those gangsters won't be able to find their family and cause them harm. 

At that moment Jack's parents were completely pleased by David and his good deeds. 

Later, considering the same, the orphan, David was adopted as an elder son, by them (Jack's parents).

After the David-adoption-day, the four-some lived merrily, always.

However, the Damp-area-mob never came to know about the cunning, but delightful, elude! 

Nonetheless, every individual is kidnapped by a gang for getting some profit but, those gangsters had kidnapped Jack so that, they could make him carry out criminal activities for them. 

How simple and weird is that!
