In the dense town of Rajangad, there was a dense forest. It led to another village, Palanpur. The problem was the town of Rajangad was covered with this forest on a large extent. Clearing was not possible in this way. Moreover, being dense, it was highly uneven that the person couldn't step in. During monsoons, the forest became marshy with the leeches of population more than a lakh .

Once upon a day, in dry summer, hot and easy. We can say that it was the hottest day of the year. Water levels, food, all the amenities were dropped. People were starving, so they led a meeting in the center of town,on a chaupal. The village head asked first to build a bridge over forest, but this was denied when the question came that how they would be getting the resources and equipment when there was no communication and a healthy labor. This way, many ideas and suggestions were denied simultaneously. Lastly, the head asked if anyone can go to the other village and communicate or request with the neighboring land to help us unless this town would no more survive.

The another problem that the head said that was the forest was fully covered with weeds and unwanted trees, wild bushes, and other unwanted plants. And the outsiders thought that the forest fulfilled the village needs. Now, listening to this, no one wanted to raise their hands or be assertive to the suggestion at any circumstance for some time. Suddenly, a boy with black hair, and he was thin but lit quite strong and confidential with his expressions, told, I am ready, in an enthusiastic way, with a louder voice that echoed in the quiet meeting, silent meeting. All villagers were shocked to see the young boy. One of the villagers, in sudden eyes, asked, Whose child you are? Where do you live?
Succeeding with this had questioned with doubt. If we felt safe in this, will he be able to cross the Parker-like struggle task? The boy was silent and thought a little, and then said, I'll be ready. After all, I am saving all lives of people. I wouldn't grant to be regretful for the same. And he walked towards home.

Next morning was the another bright andadventurous morning. Kushal,who was the young leading helper of the town went towards house of head to pay a kind visit to tell him that he was now going to rescue the town. Head willingly gave him a little smile and a binoculars and blessed him for a challenging journey.
Kushal was a very kind and a brave boy .from his childhood he had dreamt to do a very hard and challenging task and this was to be fulfilled by this day

He ran straight towards the clearing of the village swiftly. The sun was at the back of his path that was increasing its gleam in the blue sky. He had reached in the thicket's entrance. The further view was dark looking. Till now there was no ray of light in the thicket. And as he was entering deep and deep, coolness was taking its place towards him.
Small creatures like silkworms, some of the grasshoppers, butterflies were emerging in the thicket. Some bloody snakes had coiled around the most densious trees, which was looking horrible. There was adventurous and ever-challenging scenario over there. Now as we went to the thicket, it became so uneven at some places. And there was no single drop of water beneath. And if someone would remove the upper layer of soil, it would be hollow. It was in this way mysterious that the forest was so much densious, but the soil was deserted.

There was a raise of excitement as well as a little fear emerging in the Kushal's body. He took larger steps to reach its destination. For now, the start point was also not to be seen, as well as he didn't got a glimpse also of end point. The village of Palanpur, he was likely to be in the middle. The insects were increasing big, then bigger and bigger. Mosquitoes were seizing his blood and the other dangerous big ants were entering his clothes and his slippers. He was itching and getting pain of the bites made by the ants. He didn't lose his hope and tried to walk in the most craggy surfaces. There were so many pits nearby, places making him more difficult for him to cross. He also made sure that his direction not must be failed. He looked around for food on the way.

Not a single tree was found with the fruits or any eatery items. But only he got some nuts which were also given by his grandmother. He took it and started eating. He wouldn't stay at one place at a time because as he would stay, ever-hungry insects would again start to bite him. Now Kushal was in thought how would he get out. Thin rays of sun were heating the whole forest one by one. He ran towards the destination now, but he had to keep attention downwards that he don't sink beneath the ground. As he went further, he was now able to see the clearing with the help of binoculars.

He was finally reached towards the end of the forest, but his leg tied into a tangle lay beneath, and he fall down near the hollow hole. The insects and the snakes started coming towards him, and THWACK!He fell from bed and was feared, and he felt a whooshh! When he realised that it was a dream !
!nice dreams!
