2 September 1929

I fell hard on the soft yet dusty sand, coughing and wiping away the dust/sand from my face I looked around.I was in middle of a dessert, I looked a little further and there was a small village. Where even am I? Was the first thought.

Last thing I remember is touching the old-odd necklace of my late grandfather and suddenly everything wen back,my head was spinning and here i am.

I look around and I see the necklace which brought me here, I quickly picked it up, in order to go back,I thought..maybe this necklace would take me back? But after some taps, i realized it is broken because of me falling.

"Shit." I cursed and mentally slapped myself hard, I've seen movies where you get stuck after time traveling or something like that. If i did time travel with this necklace does this mean im stuck? no way.

"Oh no no NO!" I panicked more as I saw a huge wind coming my side, it was more like a small tornado kind of thing.

It hit my face as sand got in my eyes, I fell on my knees trying to get the Bogart and dust out of my eyes, I groaned as it was itching and hurting. Suddenly a strong wind hit my head as I fell on my stomach,my head hit a small yet hard rock,i knew my head was bleeding. it hurt so bad i passed out.

I rubbed my eyes, scratched my back, opening my eyes i saw a few brown young girls hovering me and staring at me. They are wearing orange lehanga choli,they looked really pretty.

They all backed away as i heard their movement and sound of their payal and bangles colliding. I sat up straight my eyes roaming around to observe this place, I heard heavy footsteps of boots and clinging of metal on the floor. I saw 2 Sepoy with some metal rod thingy on their hand, they tapped it loudly 2 times. The young girls backed away more. A young boy, who was obviously British had now entered the room, staring near my bed

"Goodmorning." his deep voice called, who is he? did he helped me get here? too many questions but first..

"Who are you?"
