इशरान  का शैतान ---



PAGE-4
THORBLEN stands at the window watching the sky—“zukanor I don’t recognize anything everything has changed ..even the stars and planets somehow look different “
“Naturally you have been sleeping over last 5 million years”-says a gleeful zukanor’s ghost like apparition.
You destroyed the land of ishran  by flooding us.. do you remember the flood gates you had deliberately thrown open letting the sea water come in and sink our land.?
Bah! That was only a joke!
Well dear nephew ,now the joke is on you enjoy the taste  of your own joke , a brave new world awaits you.. I will now return ..good bye!-says zukanor and disappears..
GARTH and prof. lumiere reach the laboratory and find thorblen standing near the window …
“you are perhaps right! He is alive !” proff. Whispers..
Proff! Close the door softly and switch on the lights says garth
As the light comes on garth and thorblen stand staring at each other –“who are you?,where have you come from? We are friends... We are here to help you says garth.
Thorblen makes use of strange occult powers of the ring of sycultra on his finger and suddenly disappears !
He has vanished says an astonished proff .
“ not only that ,he reached the door passing right through me!-says a visibly shaken garth.
“you are right !he is not in this room ..says lumeire”
“that means he can become invisible whenever he likes ..says garth”
Coming out of the laboratory garth and lumeire are suddenly startled on hearing loud cackling mocking laughter of thorblen..
“do  you hear that professor ? It is astonishing” says garth
“maybe we have let loose a devil on our world!” says lumiere
On closely examining Thorblen’s box Garth and Proff find the scroll …
Can you read this script? Asks Garth.
No! I have never come across anything like this before! ..Answers Lumiere
Only one man could probably read this cryptologist Dr Flanders we shall meet him tomorrow –Lumiere tells Garth while they are speeding in their car on a dark London street by the side of river Thames.
“Tomorrow? Why not today? Asks garth
He must be asleep garth ..
Then we will wake him up says Garth ,earlier we know about this devil the better .
A few mile away thorblen is roaming around on dark London streets..
Thinking-“I have got to be careful..These people are 5 million years older than me they may be a race of super beings.
Page -5
A speeding taxi is about to crush an invisible man….
“is that launatic trying to kill me”thinks thorblen when  he sees a taxi rushing at him  not realizing that driver is unable to see him,he points his finger at the driver invoking the occult power of the ring of sycultra  resulting in the taxi rolling away uncontrollably.
Ha ! ha! This will teach him a lesson… comments a smirking thorblen.
Thorblen is at Trafalgar squire when he is spotted by  a police constable  .thorblen thinks” I should talk with some local person”
“are you in some kind of trouble sir? A PC questions thorblen…why are you roaming about dressed like this sir? Your name and address please?
“thorblen!...a resident of  ancient land of ishran.. a descendant, third in line of great meldon answers thorblen defiantly .
No sir you  did not understand what I am saying? Asks PC
Clearly   a primitive human being! Doesn’t understand anything, I will enter his mind and see…thinks thorblen.
Thorblen disappears and enters in to the mind of PC Higgins
Hey! Where did he go ? says a startled Higgins ..and suddenly he is seized with terrible headache “ what is happening inside my head? Why I keep on  repeating thorblen ,ishran zukanor again and again?
Within seconds thorblen analyzes PC higgins’s mind.
Thorblen comes out of the mind of a dazed policeman –“supermen!bah! these primitive people do not know anything ,they have no powers I am their lord and master –gloats thorblen.
I have found out by entering this man’s mind.. do you hear me zukanor new world’s people  are utter fools,mere animals and now I will use them in any way I like.exults thorblen.
There is no dearth of idiots like you exclaims thorblen calling pc Higgins a fool and suddenly disappears leaving a dazed and very shaken policeman behind.—“ I have seen terrible things, burning men, snow and fire ,talking dogs!
It is night and traflgar squire witnesses a strange spectacle of a fishing going on in a public fountain watched by a surprised police inspector and beat sergeant…
Sergeant what is going on here?
Sir he is constable Higgins , seems like a joke to me.
“sergeant I have caught a fish look how beautiful it is come let us fish together you too inspector! –says a confused pc Higgins.
“for god’s sake pull him out of there “ shouts the police inspector.
Later at the police station---“ sergeant I don’t understand anything he keeps on repeating” strange name thorblen” while PC Higgins is still muttering incoherently inspector tells sergeant to summom the police surgeon but for god’s sake not a word of all this should be leaked to anybody.
PAGE-6
How is he doctor?—police ispestoe asks the surgeon examining p.c. Higgins
He is in shock …he has been under tremendous mental stress
Sir this is the last noting in the case diary of last night ‘s beat in p.c. higgins’s  notebook-only one word “thorblen”—sergeant tells he police inspector.
Thorblen?
Sir he was repeating this name again and again when we brought him in last night-sergeant tells the inspector.
Then find out who is this thorblen  advice police surgeon as he prepares to leave.
Meanwhile professor lumiere and garth are discussing the secret script on the scroll found in thorblen ‘s box with cryptologist flanders.
“astonishing! Strange! This script seems to belong to as yet undiscovered lost ancient civilization-exclaims an astonished flanders the cryptologist.
Ok. Flinders but how to interpret this script?-asks the professor
Can we use a computer? Asks garth
Good suggestion! Says flanders I will use one of the computers at national laboratory
First we will arrange these things in an ordrly fashion and tomorrow we can feed this in to the computer..but first let us have some coffee it is going to be painstaking hard work –says flanders

garth -"the wakening"



posting english translation of a 1968 classic garth adventure "the wakening"----from hindi version [इश्रान  का शैतान]---
THE WAKENING----
5 millian years ago a hermit called zukanor lived in a big cave on a place called ishran which was located at where there is present day north atlantic ocean
zukanor-
"so thorblen ,people of ishran are pursuing you and you want me to help you?...
thorblen--
"so where else could i go my dear uncle?"
zukanor-
"runt!..you spoiled  their women..?"
thorblen-
"they came to me willingly..i taught them the art of living.."
zukanor-
you pillaged the temple of asunzai,,made fun of gods of ishran,you killed.."
thorblen--
enough of this list...will you help me?
zukanor-
Yes for the sake of your dead father, but first i shall put you to sleep,,
thorblen[aghast]--sleep?..oh ...no...
don't put me to sleep,no magic tricks uncle
zukanor...there is no other way[pouring a magic potion in to roaring fire and a vivid scene of  an army of soldiers riding on backs of mammoths springs up in the flames..]
"people of ishran are crossing the snow-clad high mountain peaks, you are finished.."
thorblen -
oh! ok. in that case i am prepared to sleep!how long will i be asleep?
zukanor-
"as long as there is a threat to your life ,my dear nephew..."answers zukanor while mixing a magical potion...
thorblen [pointing towards a huge wooden log sticking out from a gaping hole in the cave wall]-
what is that thing uncle zukanor?
zukanor-"you know i am the guard and gatekeeper of the great sluicegate which is holding up outside sea
thorblen--
"what if i remove this"?
zukanor -"you fool would you like to drown the people of ishran?"
thorblen [thinking while pushing out the massive wooden log and relesing the path for outside seawater to come in] why not? they are after my blood,let them drown,i pity their women."
zukanor is unawre of what i have done ,when the glaciers will melt the water will rush in sinking ishran and it's people.."
thorblen drinks up the magic potion of long sleep-"long live uncle long live your beard and long live your arthritic bones.."
zukanor-[seeing thorblen slumping to ground]----
i will have the last laugh ,dear nephew! Leeno! prepare magic potion for this worthless runt!..zukanor instructs his subordinate...
page-2
giant thorblen is helpless in the faceof his uncle jukanor’s mighty magic
“poor thorblen—says jukanor whil thorblen lie in deep sleep on the floor of his cave…” this magical potin will reach every fibre of your body circulting in your veins and it will make you sleep for 5million years”
“He will wake up in a strange new world of super beings”-zukanor says to his underling.
“You think so master”?-says a doubtful leeno
“but I can conquer time itself ,I can roam invisible around the space,then those people wil be godlike…”says zukanor.
Zukanor slips a magic ring into sleeping thorblen’s right hand, “guardian of life’s mysteries. This ring of sycultra will protct you”
“what is that scroll of papers at hi sfeet ..master?”-asks leeno.
That is our message to feople of distant future.. now seal this box and throw it in to the sea-“-zukanor asks his underling leeno
Glass box sealed with thorblen’s body is thrown from aclifftop in to the ocean –“by the time you wake  up we shall be long gone and forgotten, best wishe for a new future”-zukanor thus bids farewell to thorblen.

5 mill. Yers have passed, drillin for oil is going on in north atlantic
“We are laying explosives [mines] at a depth of 50 feet for our exploration”
Thorblen’s box is thrown up to surface as the mine explodes
There is acoffin  with a body inside it says on eone worker on the ol rig,”let us haul it up” says another
Boss what shall we do with it?
Our ob is only exploration, send it to shore where they will decide what to dothat night in garth’s londan flat-“they have found this coffin in north Atlantic garth informs lumiere reading from newspapers
“home office has brought it to London and forensic expert professor Gilpin has asked me to be present when they open it ,you can also come along garth!---says proff  lumiere
In a famous specialized research London hospital-“gilpin when will you open it? Asks proff.
‘that  is our problem  we have used hammers ,acetylene blow torches and even laser rays but we failed to open the box.” It is impenetrable.
This is very intriguing says lumiere
Body is well preserved , but of course there is no question of his coming to life –says Gilpin
“that man is not dead he is alive and waiting to be resurrected”---garth says watching thorblen’s apparently lifeless body in the glass coffin .
PAGE-3
YOU are a fool young man ,this person here is as lifeless as a log of wood –dr Gilpin tells garth
But Gilpin ,garth has  miraculous intuitive powers and I respect his instincts  are you very sure ,garth-asks proff lumiere
I am certain , I sense something trying to come out to surface ,he must be alive ..says garth
After a few more futile attempts to open the box containing thorblen –dr Gilpin addresses the technicians working with blow torches that it is already midnight and  and that now they should go home and come back in the morning.
Press reporters are waiting outside the laboratory and as garth and lumiere emerge they are asked questions –whose body is inside that coffin professor?”is it all a big joke?”
If it is indeed a joke I would like to meet the person who has played this joke , he must be brilliant!—responds professor lumiere.
Garth you seem to be disturbed”-says proff lumiere
“I am only exited and curious, let us go back to the box after the crowds disperse”garth says.it is fascinating.
Garth and lumiere speed back to lab. Meanwhile thorblen inside the box suddenly wakes up “where am i?..what is happening?is it a trick of zukanor? Where are you zukanor?—he shouts frantically.
“zukanor help me I am trapped inside this box buried alive
No thorblen ! you are a low life you deserve this.. press the button near your shoulder says suddenly appearing spectral form of uncle zukanor..
You have the ring of sycultra . goddess of infinite mysteries on your finger it will protect you, but use it carefully!-warns zuknor as thorblen is released from the glass coffin.

PLAYBOY OF SPACE

CONTINUING ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF GARTH STORY IN HINDI POSTED EARLIER "PLAY BOY OF SPACE"[अन्तरिक्ष  का खिलाडी ]पेज-10-13





page-10
i can pay any ransom to kroken for safe release of my daughter....says doonur ,galia's father
 mr.doonor .. kraken knows this ,he will rob you of everything you have....says ulgar........
and then why would ulgar ,a darling of intergalaxeal games would marry a girl who can not provide him all the privileges of riches and a lavish and lifestyle?
garth- there is this one thing , ulgar that i admire about you is, you do not show false modesty...
ulgar- I will only get galia's money through this marriage alliance but galia will get me!

that night garth and ulgar leave on a voyage to sibila----our ship is cruising at slow speed through akor vortex garth  I hope that kraken's bandits would notice us.
"a dromedian ship is moving unescorted by any security near akor vortex... a robot relays this message to kraken's strong hold, catch them ,throw the pilots and crew....... “look garth a kraken ship is moving towards us"says ulgar when the persuing ship appears on their monitor screen..
good ..now to see if they will swallow our bet...says garth.
We are  coming through the side door,open the sky lock ,obey instructions otherwise you will be destroyed –says the robot on monitor screens in ulgar’s ship,garth responds-“got your message ,we obey”
“Four robots… they must be temporary crew. Pilots   who must have come to take our ship to their hideout-says ulgar
Open the sky lock and door –instructs the robot waving a weapon at garth and ulgar
It is the thing we feared garth says “they want to throw us in to the space
Hm. I will destroy those tin heads-says ulgar
No.. ulgar you will be destroyed even before you reach them—says garth----catch hold of something  tightly I will give a big jolt to the ship to topple them…..
Garth rocks the ship violently causing the robots to topple down ----“now! Pounce on them ulgar!,grab their leader!
PAGE-11
GARTH AND ULGAR FIGHT KRAKEN’S ROBOTS
Robots are overpowerd…ulgar says…they can see us on their communicator screens.
No! I have severed  the communication but if we don’t move quickly they will be suspicious –says garth
Three robots are thrown in to space but garth and ulgar catch their leader
Ulgar—they have a preprogrammed nervous system!
Garth- yes a thing which cannot apply logic can not be made to lie, therefore we will have to force them from divulging our secret to kraken
Garth opens the chest plate of the robot-“ we will knock out the control unit in his chest and connect it by a cable to space craft’s motor engines and hopefully it’s awful noise will do the rest of our jobs”
Robot’s nervous controls are affected by terrible noise of space craft’s motors and it puts it into a heightened state of excitement much like a human being’s insaniy
Now we will place this robot in front of tele screens and remove ourselves from it’s field of view ,I will temper with sound transmitters so as to mask my voice…garth tells ulger
With your commonsense and keen intellect and with my strength and magnificent personality we can do anything –declare a pompous ulgar
 Don’t have any flights of fancy yet ulgar , we have much to accomplish—says garth
Garth transmits a false message to bandit’s space shift---“we have captured the ship and thrown their crew in to space”
You voice is jerky… why did communication link with us snap ,why did the dromdian ship change course please explain –asks the robot in command ship .
We had some problem with pilot crew, it was set right…communicates garth mimicking robot’s voice
Ok.. follow us now, prepare to land—orders the robot in command ship..
“we have succeeded in doing this”- garth thinks.
PAGE-12
The captured dromedian goods carrier spacecraft follows the other ship to land on kraken’s hideout..it is being instructed by kraken on communicator—electric force field has beencutoff in epsilon region to allow you to pass through
“come ulgar”..”if we are lucky we will escape from this place unobserved “ says garth coming out of spacecraft after it has landed and ulgar follows him.
“ulgar nobody has seen us coming out of the space craft “says garth, but once there is internal inspection of the space ship the whole thing will be blown open..says garth to ulgar
Then we should find galia quickly but where should we start looking for her? Ulgar asks garth
“I think that must be kraken’s residential place…says garth looking up at a majestic tall minaret like building…  “ and I think we will find galia there”

There are robots guarding the door says ulgar should I thrash them?ulgar asks garth
“no we will enter the building quietly through air went on this side “answers garth pointing out the opening of a ventilation duct outside the building.
Garth and ulgar enter kraken’s house through air vent and see a robot carrying a food laden tray entering a room and decide to follow him in to the room after it has done it’s job  to see if galia has been kept in this room.
Ulgar! How did you find me ?exclims a startled galia when ulgar and garth suddenly force their way through the opening of air duct in to her room.
“nothing is impossible for your ulgar “ulgar boasts –meet garth he is my follower and he is faithful to me”
Meanwhile kraken is asked whether dromedians could have forced their way in to the building?
Kraken decides to watch galia’s roon through an instrument which can pick up brain wave activity of any living being inside the room and when they pick up brain wave activity of three persons they deide to connect the brain wave activity to a tracer connected to robot’s neural system to capture the intruders.
PAGE-13
ULGAR AND GARTH ARE SEEN BY ROBOTS WHEN they accompany galia out of her chamber..garth pushes galia in to the ventilation duct and when they try to reach the dromedian space craft ,after escaping from kraken’s building they see that it was encircled by kraken’s robots.”we are trapped”-says garth
“ulgar ,I am afraid  save me from those horrible things there “says galia”
Huh! Tinheads! I will smash them to pieces “-says ulgar
Garth warns ulgar “keep back ulgar!
‘when ulgar wades in to robot guards alone and starts lifting one of them over his head to throw it down he is surrounded and captured by other robots while galia asks garth to save ulgar he tells her  that these robots could have killed ulgar as soon as he even took one step forward ,if they wanted but they did not so I don’t think they really want to harm him –garth tells galia.
“galia look !ulgar is unharmed ,they must have orders to capture him alive -garth tells galia “I want to plan my further move by remaining out of their clutches
“and I thought that you were his friend “says a furious galia.
 “I am, and I promise you that I will bring him back to you later ,but for now we should move forwards…says garth.
Kraken is keeping an eye on escaped pair-“oh those two are baffling the robots.. I wonder who is that man?.
Kraken’s curiosity is aroused---“ let me see the brain structure of this man”
“o! very impressive ,he has got courage, talent and firm determination,not like that blundering fool ulgar,he would give us good contest.”-says kraken
Garth.they have found us, they will continue to follow us till we fall down of sheer exhaustion,-says a tired galia
Somehow they are getting instructions from somewhere where to look for us,but galia continue to move ,we are not done yet… says garth
