Today Ravi's mother has prepared sweets and invited all her relatives and neighbors on the a occasion. His mother is very happy because she is seeing his only son after 5 years. She thought that she had lost her son and will never be able to see him again. His son was lost 5 years back and she fired a FIR and searched for him in near by villages and every place where she can, police also struggled to search her son but after an effort of 1year police has closed the case. But she never left her hope.
Today no one knows where Ravi had been since 5 years. There are many rumors about him but no one rarely knows the truth except Ravi and one more weird person (the Tantrist). But Ravi told every one including his mother and father that he had been kidnapped and taken to a place far away from their village. And when ever some one ask him more about his past 5years then he used to act like he is feeling some mental distress (just to let them know that he don't want to talk about his past anymore). The reason behind what Ravi told everyone was not truth, but it was his perturbation that if he speaks truth then no one will believe him and above than that he doesn't want to break his promise what he made with the Tantrist.
But one day while taking lunch her mother asks him about his past once again and this time Ravi finds himself unable to hide the truth anymore. And he ask his mother to promise him not to tell this to his father or anyone else about what he is going to tell and to believe him. Her mother always knew that he was telling lie all the time but she wanted him to be comfortable enough to talk about his past with her. Ravi tells everything about his 5years beginning from his last day at home.
It was the normal regular morning when Ravi left for his school. His school was around 5-6km far from his home and was outside from his village in another town. There was a cemetery on the way to his school. He used to walk to the school every morning and used to work in a small general merchant shop in that town in order to earn some money for his home and studies. He was a 15 years old young boy with full of passion to learn new things. He was the one of the best student in his school with a curious and experimental mind willing to learn any time. While returning from town it used to get evening time, but he always try to leave town before it gets dark. While returning to his home, passing through the cemetery he had always noticed that there was a person sitting in that cemetery near a bonfire and performing some rituals and meditation. After asking to few people about that person he came to knew that the person is Tantrist and he perform these rituals every night to gain some spiritual powers. Ravi was amazed after listening this, but there were many questions that were hovering in his mind like; "what are those spiritual powers ?", "what all powers a person can get after doing these things ?" and the last one was "does these things really exist or all are rumors only ?". Every late evening after seeing Tantrist worshiping these questions were making him more curious to know about the true fact anyhow, but since he was not allowed to enter into the cemetery nor to talk to any strange peoples so he was left with no choice except to ignore these questions.
But one day while returning from town he got very late, almost the midnight and it was dark all the way because it was a lunar eclipse night. He was rushing towards his home. And while passing through that cemetery he finds, that near bonfire Tantrist was not there, instead there was one monkey sitting on his place where Tantrist used to sit for meditation and worship. He found that monkey was doing a very awkward movements. He tries to go more near for much clear view, and now he was not able to believe his eyes. That monkey was performing the rituals same as he saw Tantrist used to do all the time. After seeing all this he was very horrified and he left that cemetery with in a moment.
After reaching home he had dinner and went to bed. But still he was not able to believe on his eyes and he thought not to tell anyone, else everyone will make fun of him. But then he decided to talk to the Tantrist directly about what he saw today night.
Next morning he woke up early and went to his school and then over to merchant shop. He finished all his work at that shop before time and left that shop early evening. And finally he reached to cemetery and went in front of that Tantrist. This was the first time he saw him, he was 6+ feet tall person with lean body, long hairs, beard and mustache all curled and twisted tight like a rope. His forehead and shoulders were colored with some sandal paste. His black and big eyes were looking at him. And then Tantrist asked him in his scary voice "what are you doing here ?". Ravi got scared and found himself unable to speack a word because of a unknown fear and then without asking the questions what were there in his mind he left that place.
Few days passed and he found himself unable to gather the courage to go in front of the Tantrist. Again one day while returning from the town it got late and was dark. And while passing through the cemetery he again saw him doing some rituals and this time he gathered all his courage and went in front of that Tantrist to ask all the question he was having in his mind. And this time he asked him that "what all things he does and why and do they give him any power ?". For the first time Tantrist was facing any kid asking him a questions like this, so he ignored him and didn't replied to any of his questions. But then Ravi became more stubborn and kept him asking in a requesting manner, but the Tantrist didn't replied to any of his question and instead he remained silent. And Ravi said something what made Tantrist surprised. Ravi told him that what he saw on that midnight
