Twilight comes as a 'shadow of hope' to a land dreaming of better days. Strong black silhouettes rooted to land in happy slumber, stretch into mottled-metal sky. For this is twilight. This is the hour when dreaming begins, when thoughts turn from the mundane to the magical, ready to write their wish-lists to the Santa of the night. Tracy also wrote the letter to Santa.
In foreign countries there was a belief that when you had a bad dream, if you write something good in the paper and keep it on the windowsill, then Santa would come and take that and fulfil your wishes, and during the eve of Christmas he will fulfil your wish. After so many years today she felt like doing this. At that time her dad or her sister fulfil that wish, but both of them are not beside her today, she wants to see who will fulfil her wish. Today she missed her sister as well as her father, after writing she kept the paper on the window sill.
Tracy's night passed as a nightmare and it was a black scary night for her. She was watching the black sky with shining stars, and moons, sleep was slowly coming into her eyes. When Tracy was fast asleep, the slip in which she wrote her wish, blown by the powerful wind, went to the house of Rudra, who was still awake completing his official work which is pending. The slip fell in the face of Rudra. He opened the slip and saw something written in it but it was written in Greek language.
Rudra did not understood anything, he tried to throw the slip in the dustbin but, suddenly a voice come, "Rudra, you should not throw the slip, it is the path towards you lose memories, and the grandfather of Rudra appeared in front of him, and came into his real human form. Rudra, was shocked to see that , and asked him," Grandfather, why do you come in a frightened manner?
Pratap said, "My son doesn't throw the slip of paper; it was an unfulfilled wish of the little girl," Rudra's grandfather remarked. Please give the slip to me. Pratap placed the slip on his palm, causing it to return to standard English. "My wish is to know the secret of the painting on the wall of my house," was written on the slip. Tracy to Santa. When Rudra heard this, he was taken aback. Pratap held his hand and swept toward the Tracy residence. By then, Tracy had fallen asleep deeply.
When Rudra saw her lovely, naive face, he asked his grandfather to let him approach her, and Pratap complied. Rudra gave her a kiss on the head and murmured, "My love, I will grant your wish." After that Rudra moved his face towards the grandfather. When Rudra inquired, "What is she asking for, grandfather?" Pratap took hold of his hand, led him to the dining hall portrait, and asked, "My son, will you remember the photo on the wall?" Rudra was startled to see the photo on the wall. It was an exquisite family portrait.
He was shocked to see the portrait, and that portrait was very lively, that real persons were posing for the photo clip. Rudra said," Grandfather, why the boys look like me and Prakash, looking at the photos, I think the others were Tracy's dad, mom, and sister. Tracy told me about them once. The Soul of Pratap smiled and said," My grandson, you do not remember when this picture was taken, this was you, your wife's brother and your in-laws in your past life.
Rudra was shocked to see and hear that. Rudra said, "But Grandfather I do not remember these events, and the photo taken. Pratap's Soul rubbed his hand on Rudra's head, and so many images went through his site, but in the beginning, they were shaky and fast, and slowly it became clear and visible to his eyes, as if the events happened a day before.
Rudra saw that Tracy, Alexander, Prakash and Stella were travelling in the ship, and they reached Paris, which was known as Persia in olden days. This was the time when Alexander took all of them to Persia after their marriage, by the request of Pratap to keep them safe. Also it was the time when the country of Gujarat was in the control of black dragon group and people and animals were missing daily.
Rudra saw that they reached the home of Tracy and Stella and a lady welcomed him, with a beautiful face and she was no other than Catherine, Stella and Tracy's mother but according to the knowledge of Rudra Tracy told her that her mother was dead while saving her. Catherine welcomed all of them. Four of them married in the Church due to the request of Catherine. Then after two days, they went to the studio and captured the photo on the wall. After that the images vanished and Rudra fell on the floor, and his back became painful.
When Rudra opened his eyes, his grandfather's soul was sitting beside him and smiling. Rudra angrily asked, what a weird memory this grandfather had, how come her mother was alive and now also she said her mother was dead. Soul of Pratap said," My child when she was young, as you know that she was nearly hurt by Kapil, I mentioned that event in my diary. Rudra said," Yes, I remember that part, which happened on my past first night with her.
Pratap continued," At that time, Catherine was seriously injured, and she was not able to wake up, but her heartbeat was there. Doctors said," There are less chances for her to survive, at that time Kapil came to Alexander and said," My friend, I will help her to recover from her injuries. Alexander was shocked to hear that. Alexander said," I can do anything for her recovery, my finances are less, but if she recovered, I will be a happier person in this world.
Kapil said," I have one friend who knows so many medicinal tricks he will not charge anything to you, but you have to make a deal and sign a contract with him and you have to give him whatever he wants. At that time, Alexander did not think anything and he promised to Kapil. Pratap's soul took a deep breath and continued his story.
Pratap said," Then Catherine was taken to the leader of the Black dragons, he was the father of Aakash and by using black magic and some medicines she recovered from the trauma, but Aakash's father the king of black dragon asked alexander for Catherine's soul as well as Alexander's soul in return. Soul of Pratap took a deep breath and completed the story.
Rudra asked," Then what happened Grandfather, why Tracy does not remember these things and she even does not remember me. Pratap said," She was told that her mother was in treatment and she was kept away from her during the treatment period. Once she and Stella saw her mother with Akash's father and suspected them, and he threatened her by saying that if Catherine did not do the things which he says, he will kill her daughters.
