CONTINUING ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF HINDI GARTH STORY-"GLENOIG MIRACLE" PAGE NO 13,14,15,16,17ग्लिनोइग  का आश्चर्य





Page-13
Woolie stop the bus  we will run out–panicked passengers of the hydroelectric project bus shout at the driver when they spot 43 lumbering gaiants on the road ahead .
Woolie- we don’t stand a chance there wi will try to speed away through them
Monsters spot the bus and attack it while the helpless spectator watch from above the hill top—
Garth- jane! Don’t watch they are tering apart the bus!
Now they are returning to the lake , we will go down there and find out if there are any survivors!
A few hours after the moster attack-
Curious reporters and television crew , they make me nervous – says jane
Garth- jane ,people have a right to information!.....professor what do you think?
Lumiere- an experiment ,let us go to the lake’s edge
Professor is using radiation detector- there is high level of radioactivity in glenoig lake!
Garth – you are right professor ,but how did this thing happen?
Lumiere- I am almost certain , it is highly suspicious , let me contact nuclear energy commission’s professor ware
While professor lumiere is busy in his investigations newspapers are  busy printing headlines of monster attack on their front pages---
In the parliament- “will the minister assure us that there will be action against these monsters?
“resign!”- a shout!
“ retaliatory action is being taken”
Mr minister we can use depth charges to destroy these monsters!
Minister- depth charges? .. no.. I can’t tell you more but you will have to find aother way!..security matters!
Page14
In a hotel near the glenoig lake in the village------
Oh! The monster? let me tell you all this would not be happening if we had the right of self determination.[a heated discussion is going on  amongst the noisy drunk locals]----
Professor tells Garth-“I had a talk with Mr. ware of nuclear energy commission …….bad news garth..a fortnight back one of their nuclear power plants had mistakenly dumped drums of  radioactive waste in glenoig lake..
I thought radioactive waste has always been dumped at sea—Garth asks professor lumiere
Lumiere- yes garth but there was a mistake in this case .an element of  human error
One villager comes and makes the announcement-“hear this! A naval troop has reached the village to fight the monsters
Garth-[to lumiere] you told me this morning that the lake water has become radioactive
Lumiere-oh...Some drums of radioactive waste must have a leak...which was probably the reason for accelerated growth of the monsters.
Nature maintains a delicate balance; any interference in this balance can be the cause of such mishaps nature took millions of years for the dinosaurs to genetically evolve. if the navy uses deep  explosive water depth charges to kill the animals it could open up the drum of radioactive waste and that will make the lake radioactive for centuries to come .any suggestions Garth?
They can send divers in first to take out the drums of nuclear waste—answers Garth
Lumiere- I want you to meet Commander Dore he is in charge of this operation.
Garth meets Commander Dore in charge of action at the glenoig lake—
I have a team of navy technicians and soldiers with me we begin our work tomorrow morning itself...Would you like to join us?
With pleasure – answers Garth
Commander Dore- it seems that these damned radioactive drums are at the bottom of lake somewhere
..Even if our sonar I able to detect its location even then it will be risky to send someone in there to dig them out.
Garth- surely what with those beasts there in the water too, but I have a suggestion to make to get the better of these monsters
Commander dore- what is your suggestion to catch these monsters Garth?
Garth- not by going after them but to lure them out in the open.
They come out in search of food; we will keep dead animals as baits to attract them
Commander you are very right , tomorrow we will try to find out how many are there and then tomorrow night!.....
 PAGE-015
A SMALL naval ship has reached glenoig lake---
Garth we  have a map of glenoig lake  we shall search the whole area thoroughly
Suddenly there is a beeping noise from sonar—“sir 2 objects detected at the depth of 400 feet, hold on, a third one is approaching
Commander are those radioactive drums?—asks Garth
No Garth they are big! Really big! They must be the monsters only!
Commander- it seems there are three monsters in there, but we could not detect any signals from those radioactive drums
Garth they must have sunk into the quicksand at the bottom of lake! We should now return to set the trap!
We have kept dead carcasses of the animals as bet to lure the monsters out of the water and our machineguns will then shoot them down—says the commander
Garth- police has cordoned off this whole area around the lake to prevent anybody from getting hurt; it seems the right thing to do!
Jane- [entering Garth’s hotel room in the village]—a scheme to catch the monsters? It should be fun, when are we going Garth?
Garth –sorry Jane you are not coming!
Jane—listen Garth, I am not a little girl, I am a middle aged woman and I know how to take care of myself!
Garth—I am aware of that Jane , but you are staying here!
Jane –will I be left alone?
Garth—we do not know what will happen if those monsters go out of control !therefore Jane you stay hare and that’s an order!
Later at the lake---
Commander- if those monsters smell out the dead animals they will surely come this way
Garth- ok commander so let us take our positions!
Lumiere- it is 2 o’clock in the morning and yet no sign of those monsters!
Garth –shih... I can hear some murmur from the water
Here they come, fire at them  when  they are caught in the glare of search light beams!
Professor lumeire—great! Hear that roar; nobody has heard that splendid sound before
Garth- professor you are enjoying yourself!
“FIRE”! Bellows a terrified naval commander.
The monstrous animals are caught in the glare of powerful searchlights and they come under rapid machine gun fire!
They are hurt but not down their hide is thicker and stronger than a boiler skin!
Page-16
One of the monsters comes forward to attack the machine guns!
Hell!
Something terrible has happened; somebody has come in the way of those monsters!
Garth—don’t shoot …it is Jane!
Garth sprints down to rescue Jane
GARTH- WE HAVE MANAGED TO SCARE THEM OFF THEY ARE RETURNING TO THE LAKE
Lumiere- except the dead one
Group comprising of Lumiere, Jane Garth and naval commander go near the dying tyrannosaurus
Jane- professor where did the bullet   killed him hit?
Professor- there in that air sac in his neck which seems to be the only weak spot in its body
The bullet penetrated and shattered that sac and this huge creature died like a fish out of water.
Lumiere points to the wound in monster’s neck---“there! That air sack serves as temporary measure so as to keep the animal alive even when out of water for some time”.
Garth- temporary?
 Lumiere---The radioactive waste dumped in the lake induced unnatural enormous growth of the air sacs. How sad!, that dying monster  is writhing in agony trying to return to the water!
Garth- come let’s go Jane professor is getting emotional!
Professor- garth tomorrow I will make arrangements to pick up the body of this gigantic beast
Garth- professor calm down!
Lumiere goes on- museum staff will pick him up. What a pleasant image …specimen of an extinct animal race...will get it stuffed  and it will be nomenclatured as  “tyrannosaurus lumierensis”
Garth[amused at professor’s excited reaction]- oh jane do all scientists get to behave like this?
Page-17
The group returns to the villag
Garth- two more beast are now lft alive after the death of this one!
Naval commander- thanks to professor lumiere now we know their weak spot , that air sac in their neck!
We will go after the two remaining monsters in next few days and by that  timesome heavy duty big guns will have come
Garth- I ahave a feeling that next time we not get so lucky!
Lumiere- you are right, one of them is a female and they are hard to kill!
Jane- I was real terrified to find myself between the monsters and gunfire!
Garth—so next time don’t act so mischeviously.
Lumiere- garth! Jane has a scientist’s brain in her head
Garth you say that… she is a woman and a woman does not like a man’s advice!
Jane [getting angry]-ok garth you men think you are superior and  own everything as your birthright  and you treat us  women as children , it is not the same with me, you cannot treat me like that!
Garth- I thought your going to the lake was not prudent nonight jane that ‘s why  I did not allow you to go.
Jane you did not allow! Who gave you the authority to order me?
An angry jane slams the door shut!
Lumiere- garth don’t be annoyed with her,you Englishmen are really ignorant when it comes to the matters of the heart!.That girl is in love with you.
Garth-[surprised]- jane? You must be joking!
Garth- professor enough of that talk! Jane’s charms will not work on me , I am not that type!
Professor- we shall see… don’t forget  even today you saved her life and prior to that also she had soft corner for you! What about you
Garth- it is all so houch-pouch!
