THE FIVE ELEMENTS & THE SECRET LABORATORY This is the story of 5 members: Dev, Raj, Tej, Veer, and Varsha. All 5 are cousins. Among them, Veer and Varsha are twins. Veer is a few minutes elder than Varsha. Veer and Varsha are highly intelligent and they have a great curiosity to know about new things that they don't know. They all live together in their villa which contains a swimming pool, a park, a library, etc. One day, they all were playing football in their park. Raj kicks the ball forcefully in the wrong direction by mistake. It goes and hits the library's glass window, breaking it, and falls inside the library. Veer goes inside the library to retrieve the ball. The library doesn't have proper ventilation, so Veer couldn't find the ball in the darkness. Veer calls all the other 5 members to help find the ball. Varsha finds the switchboard and turns on all the switches. Then Veer finds the ball. As they are going out, Varsha turns off the light. While leaving, Dev accidentally hits a book rack in the darkness, and some books fall down. Dev tells Raj to turn on the lights. Varsha turns the light back on. Raj observes that while several books have fallen in the row, except for one particular book. He points it out to everyone to look at that book, noting how different it looks compared to the other books. Varsha tries to pull the book out, but it is stuck. Varsha pulls the book with full force. When she pulls it with all her strength, she suddenly falls to the floor along with the surrounding books! Suddenly, they all hear a strange sound inside the library. After hearing the sound, they try to escape, but they find that the doors are locked from the outside. All of them begin blaming Varsha, saying that this is happening because she removed that book. Suddenly, the book rack starts moving, revealing a secret door behind it. All 5 decide to go inside the secret room. There are old things and a lot of dust present in that room. There is an old box with someone's photo on it. They clean the photo and discover it is a picture of their grandfather. His name is Dr. Rajiv. He was a great scientist and an archaeologist. Being an archaeologist, he possessed a deep curiosity to learn about ancient artifacts. They wanted to see what was present inside that old box, but it was locked. They take the old box to their room. Later, they put the book back into its place, and the secret door opens back up, allowing them to exit. They break the lock of the old box and open it, but there is nothing inside except an old diary. They open the diary, but to their shock, it is completely empty. They are all 1.

stunned because their grandfather had hidden this empty diary so very secretly. Confused, they all eat dinner and go to bed. But Veer couldn't sleep that night. He was deeply thinking about that incident. On the next day, Varsha's friend Soya comes to the house. Soya is Varsha's childhood friend. She is a very mischievous girl. While they are playing and chatting for some time in Varsha's room, Soya notices the diary on the table, which is Varsha's diary (originally their grandfather's). She opens it to read it, but finds it completely empty. She asks Varsha about the diary. Varsha explains, "It is my grandpa's diary. He hid this diary very secretly, but there is nothing in it; it's just left blank." Soya replies, "No, your grandpa was a great scientist. There must be something hidden in it. I think your grandpa used some advanced technology to hide the text. You know, in ancient days, kings used to draw invisible maps which would become visible only when you keep it near fire. Let's try it!" Varsha agrees with her. They hold the diary over a small flame, but it is of no use. Soya then suggests, "Let's keep it in water." Varsha snaps, "Are you mad? If we put the diary in water, it will be completely spoiled!" Eventually, Soya leaves the house in the evening. That night, while Veer and Varsha are sleeping, the book is left on the table beside the window. It happens to be a full moon night. When the bright moonlight falls directly on the book, the entire room begins to glow! Due to that bright glow, Veer wakes up. He looks at the book in absolute surprise. He immediately wakes up Varsha and tells her to look at the glowing diary. Varsha is shocked after seeing the book. Varsha tells Veer, "Come on Veer, let's go and check the diary!" They both open it. There are shining letters appearing on the pages. They realize that the text in the diary will only appear on a full moon night. Varsha exclaims, "Oh! This is the mystery of the diary!" Veer replies, "Yes Varsha, our grandpa is incredibly intelligent. We need to copy this down quickly, otherwise we will have to wait for the next full moon night to read it." Varsha agrees with him and quickly copies all the writing into her own notebook. Then they both go to sleep, deciding to discuss the matter with everyone tomorrow morning after breakfast. The next morning after breakfast, all of them meet together in Veer and Varsha's room. All 5 cousins gather to read the transcribed words. Their grandfather had written about 5 dangerous powers present on the Earth. These 5 elements are: 1) Fire 2) Water 3) Air 2.

4) [Earth] 5) [Space / Aether] The diary read: "I am working and doing research on these 5 powers for so many years. Everyone thinks that these powers are common and they think that these powers are just simple and not powerful. But these 5 powers are unbelievably powerful. By using these 5 powers, you can control the whole world. Whoever attains these powers will become the most powerful person on Earth. All these powers are present in the form of Stones. All 5 stones are hidden in different places across the earth. I found this information from many ancient books, manuscripts, temples, Vedas, etc..." "This information was not enough for me to find the actual location of the stones. I went to Italy to learn more about these powers. But I discovered that a dangerous group is following me. It is 'Team _____'. They have been trying to find these 5 stones for more than a century. This team's head is ________. This team was started by his forefathers." "It is a very evil team. They try to take all the stones and rule the earth. They attacked me, but I luckily escaped from them. I collected some crucial information from that library in Italy and came back to my secret laboratory, storing that information securely and safely in my lab. And then, the diary was ended." All 5 cousins start thinking about this secret laboratory. They ask their parents about it, but there is no response or knowledge from them. Raj suggests, "Let's go and check again in the library. Can we find some clue about that secret laboratory?" They all go back to look, but find nothing useful. However, they discover one old photograph of Varsha with her grandfather. Eventually, everyone forgets about the laboratory except Varsha. Varsha was the closest to her grandfather. She shared a special bond with him and had the most affection towards him because she was the only granddaughter in the family. Varsha loved to play and spend time with her grandpa. Her grandfather always used to tell her: "Save Nature today, it will save you tomorrow." He also used to say that some people are destroying nature and she should show care and affection towards nature. At last, he had told her that he had some urgent work and would be back soon, but he never returned. Few Days Later... All 5 cousins are playing football once again in their park. There is an old statue of Buddha in the park. This time, Tej kicks the ball directly towards the Buddha statue. The ball hits it, and the statue's head rotates! They stop playing, and Varsha notices the rotated head closely. She goes up to the statue and rotates it back further. Suddenly, rays of light shoot out from the eyes of the statue! The light scans them. Through DNA analysis, a mechanized voice speaks: "Welcome to the Secret Laboratory." 3.

They all look around in amazement, and suddenly a hidden tunnel opens up in the ground! It is their grandfather's secret laboratory. In front of them, there is a massive metal door that requires a password to open it. They have multiple failed attempts, until a warning flashes: "Except Tej & Varsha, there are last two chances remaining, or self-destruction mode will activate." Varsha takes a deep breath and remembers. If she guesses wrong, it will trigger the self- destruction mode. Varsha takes another deep breath and inputs the words her grandfather always told her: "Save the Nature today, it will save you tmrow". Click! The massive metal door swings open. Inside, there are several files laid out on the table. All the files contain detailed information and research about the 5 elements... 4.
