Chapter 1: The "mass of something"!!
On the planet of Mars there was a small country of aliens called Loa Loa. The planet was more like the inner part of the melon. The redness of the planet spead a scary atmosphere over the country. The country was led by me, the Queen of Aliens. Loa Loa was shaped like a green eye. Loa Loa was the only area which was green in color.
The space was empty adorned with some celestial bodies.
One clear night, I was roaming in my royal spaceship in the black empty space with my guards to check if there is anything in the space which could harm Loa Loa. The night was so clear that we could see the other hanging planets very clearly. Afterall, I had the responsibility of the safety of my country.
Suddenly, Leo, the driver stopped my royal spaceship. My spaceship was different than the normal spaceship. Mine had an ancient royal designs on it with emeralds and
"What happened, Leo?" I asked.
"Your Highness... there is a mass of something forming in this place." said Leo.
"What? Taurus, go and check what is it." I ordered Taurus, one of my guards. Taurus stepped out of the spaceship and went near the mass.
"Yes, Your Highness... it is true there is something over there."
"Hmm... I will take that into consideration. For now, drive the spaceship back to the Royal Palace."
I reached the Palace. The big iron door opened and I entered.
I had my dinner and went into the bedroom, and slipped inside the soft cozy bed. I had a hard time sleeping. The thought of the "mass of something in the space" stole my good night's sleep.
In the morning, I woke up quite early. I told one of my servent-aliens, "Call Vibra in the Court today". The servent went.
The Courtiers stood up when I reached the Royal Court. I gestured for them to sit.
"Where is Vibra?" I asked in a loud voice.
"Your Highness! Forgive me for being late. Did you call me?" Vibra asked me.
"Yes. Vibra, you are a good researcher and experimentor. So, I thought you would be the best person to talk to. Yesterday, when I was taking a round in the space to check for the presence of anything which could harm the country of aliens, I found a mass of something. I want you to test the mass and see what it is and if it is harmful to us."
"Yes, Your Highness." said Vibra, "I'll check that and report just now." Vibra left the court.
"The court is dismissed. You may go." I announced as I stood up to leave.
"Long live the Queen! Long live the Queen!" the courtiers shouted.
Vibra went in his research spaceship. The research spaceship was designed in such a way that it contained a whole chemistry laboratory in it. All the test tubes, so many glass bottles filled with the liquids of all sort of colours--- dark pink, dull purple, bright green, rosy magenta, blood red and so on.
Vibra drove the spaceship to the spot he was told. He didn't need any space-suit, as he was an alien.
He squatted on his knees and gazed at the wobbly mass. It was translucent and very unstable. Vibra thought deeply as he was observing the mass with his eyebrows tightened into a frown.
Then he went into the spaceship and brought the chemicals and the other apparatuses.
With the tongs he pulled out a little piece of the mass and placed it in a test tube. Then with a dropper, he carefully and softly poured the canary yellow liquid on the mass. The liquid immidiately turned wine red.
"Okay..." Vibra muttered. He had a habit of muttering when he carried out any test or experiment.
He then took out another piece of the mass and kept it in another test tube . In a test tube he put a transparent liquid and within a few seconds added another transparent liquid in it. In that he put some blue coloured crystals. With a glass rod he kept on stirring the mixture until all the crystals broke down into fine powder and got dissolved , imparting a dull blue colour to the liquid. With a dropper, he poured the mixture on the piece which he recently took in the test tube. The dull blue colour of the liquid changed into a combination of bright green and dark mauve colour.
"Hmm... So, this is it." Vibra muttered again. He washed off the samples in the wash-basin fixed inside the spaceship. He then took a sample of the mass and took it to his laboartory which was built near his residence. The experiment he wanted to conduct required some space.
He isolated the atoms from the mass with the super-nano-alien-technology and bombarded it on some white screen. Then he applied strong magnetic field and re-bombarded on it. After that he carried out the same experiment in the presence of strong electric field.
"Yes...yes..." he said abruptly in an unclear voice.
Then he put the sample in a test tube and put it on the gas burner. He observed thick, dense red coloured fumes after sometime.
"Done." he spoke to himself.
He drove his spaceship towards The Royal Palace and asked the guards to tell the Queen that he wanted to meet her.
A guard came rushing towards my rest room. He must have told my lady maid that Vibra wanted to meet me.
"Your Highness... The guard is saying that Vibra wants to meet you ." the lady maid told me.
"Ask Vibra to wait in the hall. I am coming."
I reached the hall and found Vibra already sitting. He stood up as soon as he saw me. I gestured for him to sit. He sat down.
" Your Highness... I tested the mass."
"Good. Tell me the results."
"The mass is neither solid, nor liquid. It is a gaseous mass of some new element, perhaps another celstial body. The element isn't hazardous. I checked it's radioactivity, poisonous components and flammability. Everything was negetive, but I think something big is going to happen in the space."
"Is there any harm to us?"
"As far as I think, there is no harm to us." assured Vibra, "but, please would you give me permission to keep the area under my observation?"
"Yes, you may."
"Thank you, Your Highness...", Vibra said, "May I leave?"
"Yes, you may."
Vibra left.
