Chapter 5: The meeting

Every one was looking grave. Their face down, as if wanting to say something but picked with a feeling that things are not right. The dark hall was reflecting their images with dim lights all around. The place just had a few chairs and a roound table where the fallen faces of the grave men lie. Finally the silence was broken with a white beard man aged some where close to 75, 'I would agree that the demise of Guruji is a great loss to us, but that does not mean we sit back and do nothing. His demise has got us with more responsibilities. He was not just our mentor, our leader but a great visoinary who led us to the path of God and made us understand what is right and wrong.'
'Strangely, though we saw him that we was it by a person, his body was not found neither there has been some investigation put forward. The police has just said that he is missing and they are trying to find him out. Neither of us can go out nor we can put some one forward who could say that he is killed. The conditions of the country are very volatile and any such information would lead to voilence and jeopardise in the entire region. More killing and more bloodshed, the least our Guruji would have wanted. What shall we do.', the speaker went silent.
'The first thing that we could do is choosing a leader who would guide us with the proceedings.'
'I guess, Vishwa ji would be the best person to lead us in such a moment of disgrace. He is a man who used to help Guruji in all his works. He helped him acheive things. He was not scared of the politicians and their foul means. He got contacts among the top leaders and the industrialists in the country who could be of great help in our cause. '
Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.
'I have the similar views. He is the person who could give us a head start in such a case. but where is he now? Is he informed of the dealings here?'
'Ya he is and he is just coming by as soon as possible. He would be able to make for the meeting tomorrow. This place is no longer safe, we shall change the meeting location and i would bring Vishwa ji to the new place. Lets meet up at the jatuka Ghar. That place is far more remorse and inside and its easier to stay away from others now who might be looking for us. The death of Guruji must be known to others who now have got the clues about us.'
'And what happened to that book, which Guruji was having. It has got the secrets which we never want to reveal to the other world. '
'I am sure, the last things Guruji must have done is to destroy the book. But lets not take chances. IN tomorrow's meeting we shall decide the future course of the things and try to let a team search for it. '
