Elisa: What condition? Doctor.

Doctor: You've brought the sips before 72 hours. The rescuing time starts from yesterday 11 pm. Now it is 8:30 am. It means you've approximately 62 hours.

Elisa: I've to hurry.

Doctor: No, you can't because don't forget your sips of today's is limited. No problem I'll take you to that location.

Elisa: It means a lot Doctor. (After a pause) But what about his body?

Doctor: Don't worry, I'll take him immediately to my nursing home. Then I'll came back to take you to the forest.

[Elisa held his palm for the last time and looked at his closed frozen eyes. She also noticed that his hand gradually became blue.]

Doctor: Let me take him, Elisa. We don't have much time.

[Elisa left his hand and the Doctor took him to his nursing home.]

[As she had a little time, she started packing her bag. She took a compass, pens, some papers, her phone and at last she took a blue check shirt of Cyrus. When she was holding his shirt she was very teary. It looked as if she had lost everything. Then she sat down on her table and opened her diary.]

[She started writing.]

_Background_
"तेरे निशां यादों में हैं
तू क्यूँ नहीं तक़दीर में
नादान दिल है ढूढ़ता
कुर्बत तेरी तस्बीर में

मुमकिन नहीं है तुझको भुलाना
मुमकिन नहीं है तुझको भुलाना

देखे खुदाया

दो आशिकां दियां दवाइयां
वे बड़ी लम्बियां सी जुदाईयां... "

('Lambiyaan Si Judaiyaan', Raabta)

--"Your marks are in memories
Why are you not in destiny?
The innocent heart is searching
Closeness in your picture

It's not possible to forget you
It's not possible to forget you

Oh God, look!

Gave medicines to two lovers
Those long separations..."--

[After writing something she closed the diary and kept that in her wardrobe.]

[Meanwhile the Doctor arrived and she got up in his car.]

Doctor: He is in my ventilation room. Don't worry. You just focus on your deeds.

Elisa: Hmmm... [Downed her head.]

[After 1.5 hours of the drive they reached the country side of Elysium.]

Doctor: Now I can't go further. Go straight and you'll find your way.

Elisa: It's ok Doctor. You've helped me a lot. (Smiled)

[Elisa goes straight as the doctor instructs her. After she went some distance, she noticed a black door.]

[Actually it was not so black it had some greyish in the middle. There were some ancient designs on it. Then she looked on the top of the door and she was scared. It was a devil's head sculpted over the door. And it was lightly covered with dry leaves and fungus. The whole atmosphere smelt so bad.]

[Elisa gathered her courage and was just trying to touch the door. Suddenly....]

[Elisa gathered her courage and was just trying to touch the door. Suddenly....]

Stranger: "Fair is Foul & Foul is Fair."
('Macbeth', 1:1, William Shakespeare)
Who's the girl in the air!!

Elisa: (turned back) Who..Who's there? (After a pause) Who are you?

[She saw that a human-like beetle is standing in front of her holding a yellow wand. He was a man but if he turned back anyone would say it was a giant beetle.]

Stranger: Iiiiiiiiiiii ammmmmmmmmm (very slowly) Magnus (very quickly). Now tell me, umm... Miss??

Elisa: Umm.. Elisa.

Magnus: Ok Miss Elisa, now tell me why did you touched the door?

Elisa: But, why should I tell you?

Magnus: Because without my permission you can't go inside the door.

Elisa: I came here to take the extra sips of oxygen.

Magnus: How dare you lady (screamed in anger)?

[Listening to this scream Elisa jumped back.]

Magnus: This is only for those who sacrificed their breath. And you!! Such a greedy girl!! You came here to take it for yourself!!

Elisa: No.. It's n...

Magnus: Just get out of here (in anger) or I'll punish you.

[Suddenly...]

Stranger: Wait (very deep voice).

[Elisa looked at her left side, there is another beetle man.]

Stranger: How many times have I told you to not drink 'šikāru' in your work times?

Magnus: Oh! I'm very sorry honorable Lysander. (Downed his head)

Lysander: Did you check her past?

Magnus: No.

[Lysander walked at Elisa and kept his hand on her head. She was scared.]

Lysander: Don't fear girl. I'm just watching your past.

[Suddenly he took off his hand.]

Lysander: Hmmm.. Hmmmm.. He has sacrificed a lot for you. I'll give you permission to enter the forest. But little girl do you know how many people came here but didn't succeed to save their beloved's life.

Elisa: Yes, I know. But I am not like the others.

Magnus: Let's see!! How far can you go! (In a taunting tone)

Lysander: Open the door and go ahead.

[Elisa slightly kept her hand on the door and it opened automatically. Within a second, there was a bright light flashed. Anyone can blind at that time.]

[Elisa heard something at a distance.]
