Finally, my term1 exams are over and my mum allowed me and my bestie Miya to visit an amazement park Then visit the enchanted museum and finally have a sleepover at me like a house. So today is gonna be a full-on party!!! But first, let me introduce myself and my bestie a bit, I am Diya 15 years old Adventures wondering silly but introvert while my best friend is completely the opposite of me she is introverted mature but scared to do almost every fun thing. But she still accompanies me in everything, that's why we form the best Bua at 6 p.m. we have already visited the amazement park and it was super fun and exhausting but that doesn't stop us from going to The Enchanted Museum. people say there are many amazing objects there and that each of them is at least 3000 years old and has a curse associated with it. so it was completely prohibited to touch any of the objects as a result the whole Museum handpicked banners saying 'DONT TOUCH ANY OBJECT NO MATTER WHAT'. all the objects were truly very beautiful and the story behind their cases where more awesome but the only thing that left Mia and me spellbound was the eternal necklace it was so beautiful and unique that it seemed as if it was tempting to touch it but every time we try to touch it the security card there would always toppers finally after three warnings the Museum 2 guide himself came and told us why we shouldn't touch it.


 The story of the necklace went like this," about 2600 years ago there lived a homemade necklace for 30 years collecting unique and expensive gents from different parts of the world making the necklace priceless. He then gifted the necklace to his wife on her birthday which she wore on the same day and held a grand procession wearing it around the kingdom. Only the most trusted men of the King knew about the whereabouts of the necklace and where it was kept, yet it got stolen the next day itself. Fortunately, it was revived 15 days later but how and by whom, nobody knows. People only knew that the return of the necklace lead to the death of a warrior general and a minister and exile of 10 other most trusted ministers of the King so the king decided to hide the necklace far far far away from the kingdom believing that it contained dark magic. decades later an excavator and a historian accidentally found the necklace buried deep in a tree bark the excavator dared to touch it and disappeared immediately. He hasn't been found yet, scared, the historian cut the part of the bark of the tree that consisted of the necklace and deposited it in the museum and from then on the necklace was never touched by anyone as it was said to have 'The Forbidden Curse'." By this, the Museum guide enter the story and gave us a final warning do not to touch the necklace or anything else in the museum.


But you know me whenever someone tells me not to do something I just can't control myself from doing it so 1 hour later when the guard was nowhere around I went to the necklace again to touch it this time we stop me saying, "Why are you always looking for trouble, can't you just enjoy the day simply?" but I touched it anyway and seeing me do so Mia couldn't pull back and she touched it too but just after we did so and the alarm started ringing at the garden and took access but before he could do so we ran out of the Museum to me as mom's car and she drove us to Mia's house . For the next few hours everything seemed normal, we played games, watch movies people, prank-called people, and ate lots of good food. Mia was freaking out a bit the whole time but I assured her that nothing would happen. But things caught extremely terrifying after we slept cause the next morning we didn't wake up in Mia's home but in a hut which seemed a million years old! Both me and Mia were panicking right then an old woman came into the house with her saying materials and a bag full of groceries and started saying," Oww! my babies woke up, go, go clean yourselves up and brush your teeth. " handing us two name branches. we were completely startled and just stare at her not able to utter a single word. She looked at the US for a moment and then said laughing," What happened? Did you forget your own grandma after a good night's sleep or did you guys have a bad dream, huh?"We didn't know what to do so we decided to go with the flow with I started looking for a washbasin . Then grandmother started shouting at us, "have you both lost your mines brush your teeth wash your face, and wake up! The hand pump is outside going through the back door and then get dressed up quickly as the guards have come to collect you saying that the king wants to see you."' But why?" me and we're both asked at the same time "How am I supposed to know what you babies did I already have a poor memory. Now go get ready fast." grandma said watchtower face and finally realise that it was reality Mia then started crying panicking and saying that it was all my fault that we had traveled a thousand years back because of the necklace I calmed her down saying that maybe the king has called us to reward us because we did something good. But it seems like apart from time-traveling back to 1000 years ago we had also lost all our luck after touching the necklace. Because as soon as we reached the court of the King roared at us, asking us why we stole the Queen's necklace and where it was now. We tried our best to convince him that we didn't know anything about the necklace and hadn't stolen it but the king didn't listen to him stand gave us an ultimatum saying," Though there are all possibilities of such poor people like you both to steal the necklace still considering the fact that you are both kids I will give you 15 days to return the necklace, no matter what. If you both fail, then get ready to be imprisoned behind this Grand doors of the palace as my servants for the rest of your lives".


Hearing this we both went home this hardened and told grandma everything and asked her if had told her anything about the necklace. But she said that she didn't remember anything now become Numb because of crying so much and even I didn't have anything to console her because I was completely puzzled as well. Then Miya suddenly said that "maybe we should just enjoy this 15 days and then liquid decide what will happen next."I then said," so you are just going to give in, not even going to try?" Miya replied shouting,"What else can we dont anything about our pastor about the people in this Kingdom!" just then grandma shouted," yes I remember 3 days ago both of you Soch the finance minister and the great Warrior general of the kingdom with the necklace in the forest while collecting fruits, but they saw you both and sent men to catch you both and if it wasn't for the sword fighting master next door, you would have been doomed." Suddenly everything made sense this when that the purpose we played it on us so that we couldn't tell the king about that helped and even if we did the king wouldn't believe us we had no proof.


So then Mia and I started asking for help from different people in the kingdom especially the strong and wealthy ones, but no one wanted to help us because we had no proof and the people we were calling thieves were some of the most high class and trusted people of the king. By the 10th day, we had lost all hope and decided to just enjoy the rest of the deals instead of wasting our time solving this impossible quest. Seeing soo miserable grandma suggested that we should visit the medicine man who lived in the outskirts of the kingdom and is said to have saved many peoples lives and helped solve many problems as well.


Since we had no hope left we decided to meet him once, fortunately, he had the exact thing that could help us 'The Truth Potion'. He gave us a bottle of medicine after hearing our whole story and said that a single drop lasted for a whole hour and during this hour, the person's eyes will turn green and whatever question you ask him, he can only speak the truth. We thank him and returned home then we asked grandma to sew a pair of the king's servants' dresses. She agreed and said that it would at least take her four days to do so. For the next few days we explored the kingdom as well as made full proof and to enter the bag was secret. The plan was that on the 15th day when they are recruiting extra means for the celebration of the king's daughter's birthday secretly we would secretly enter the palace then use the medicine on the ministers.


On The 15th day:

Fortunately, today we have lots of good luck with our disguise work and now we are in the palace kitchen and with the help of some of the known Grandma's friends who work in the palace, we mixed the medicine into the wine bottles that the ministers are going to drink. I and Mia then serve the wind to the ministers and greeted the iStunt green then we came out of a disguised and told the king aloud, "Dear Majesty, today will reveal who stole the Queen's necklace and where it is now ." then we asked the ministers which one of them has told him that the necklace by invading the necklace was now then immediately finance minister and the great warriors general blurted out the entire truth saying that they were actually coming from the neighboring Kingdom and then their King promise them to give great rewards if they stole the necklace and brought it for him. They also admitted that the necklace was with them at that moment.


This hue the necklace was restored and Tamil sister and Warrior were sentenced to death. Then after we told the king how we did all these he started asking all the other ministers what they have been doing behind his back and after listening to them he was really disappointed and sent all of them to exile. While we were awarded lots of gold coins and certain privileges. The King then hid the necklace deep in the forest thinking that it had a dark curse associated with it. We finally slept relieved that day and fortunately as we had estimated, woke up in Mia's home.


So we finally got home safely, is thus meant that the forbidden curse of the necklace tests everyone who touches it is her courage and wit. The only problem was that we were missing from our Era for the last 15 hours making our parents worried . So when they asked where we were, we were forced to tell them that we pranked them and were hiding in the room. As a result, we got grounded for a week. Bit still was a happy ending for us, what do you think?
