《Adventures of a young Zuma》Volume 1- CHAPTER 7

Advertisement

It is my 3rd birthday today & I’m going to the council office where I will receive my permission from the Council of Zoit & Council of Zuma to activate my STATUS function. A Status function which everybody is required activate as it will store one’s vital information along with one’s identity proof. Each Status function is unique to its user & no one can see another one’s Status function, if only one allows it then one can see another one’s Status function. But a user can choose to hide any portion it does not want to show to anybody even after giving permission. When one is on the verge of death, they can transfer their Status function or whichever portion of it to another person. But that person must be a blood relative or an acquaintance from many years. After receiving someone’s willed Status function the person absorbs it making the information their own, but certain information activates only if that person is eligible at that moment in time. Certain received information may lie dormant for the rest of one’s life as that person may not become eligible their whole life.

I entered the Council Hall, went up to the reception desk. There was a young lady behind the desk, but much older than me...I approached her & told her about my appointment with Councilwoman Je’Lac.I was led to a room; upon entering the room I saw the councilwoman was already present. She gave me a warm smile & said “Welcome Le’on, wow...you have grown so much...seeing you reminds me when you were just a little body, always being carried by Be’Lon...ha ha ha...you were so cute...now look at you, 3 already & ready for your own Status function...”

Me: “ha ha ha...thank you, councilwoman...I’m very excited at this point of time.”

Councilwoman Je’Lac: “I know...I can feel your excitement this far away...ha ha ha...ahh...speaking of Be’Lon, where is he? Is not going to attend your Status activation ceremony?”

Me: “Elder had some very important work at the fields so I came alone...but as soon as I’m done here I will head out to meet him & show him.”

Councilwoman Je’Lec: “I see...so let’s get straight to it then...no point in wasting time...Le’on please come here & sign here.”

I walked towards the pointed direction; there was a piece of paper on the desk.

Councilwoman: “This paper signifies that the Council of Zoit & the Council of Zuma have acknowledged your right to activate your Status function...sign it so that we can get to the actual activation ceremony.”

I signed the paper, my heart beating fast...I think it would come out of my chest. I approached Councilwoman Je’Lec with a lot of anxiety.

Councilwoman Je’Lec: “Le’On comes...touch this crystal my child.”

I did what she instructed, I touched the blue crystal. It was shaped like a cube. As soon as I touched it, I felt small electric impulses flowing through my hand & then all over my body. I felt a sharp pain all over my body for a few moments. Then the crystal started glowing, first it changed colour, from blue to red, then red to black & then black to again blue. Finally it stopped glowing, my pain stopped. At that moment I felt some internal pressure building in me, like I was stored with many things internally...but it was for a brief moment then everything became normal.

Councilwoman Je’Lec (a small on her face): “Just take a few deep breaths my child, it will feel normal & hand me the cube, the activation ceremony is over.”

I handed back the cube, took some deep breaths...she spoke again.

Councilwoman Je’Lec: “Now, let me explain the working of the Status functions. First, you need to activate your Status by saying the word Status. It will recognize & register your voice. Second, upon activating it, it will scan you & see the exact level you need to evolve & adjust your specifications accordingly. Third, upon doing so, it will show you your information’s. If you have any queries about your information, just state the name or the word & it will show you a brief description about it. You can access your information at your own pace. So, child lets activate your Status shall we? Just say ‘Activate Status’ & the rest will follow. I believe you know the outer workings of your Status function...”

I nod; with a very anxious look on my face I got ready to activate my Status function. Who knows what I will see.

Suddenly, the room was filled with a noise of a bell ringing very violently. The Council woman’s face turned pale immediately. The door slammed open, the receptionist was panting & with a terrified look on her face she said “Some monsters have attacked our plantation area, the guards are getting overwhelmed...”

Councilwoman Je’Lac: “Q Q Quickly alert all clan members...get everybody to the safe zone... &”

Without even bothering her to finish her sentence I started running towards the exit.

Only one thing on my mind “Elder!!”
