Masha, hi! Well, how did you get anything new? From fractal designs I have in mind - right from the doorway, muttered Eugene, neither light nor dawn ran into her Sunday morning.
Hello, Zhenya, - the girl answered him sullenly. - Here again you me to sleep do not give. How many times do you have to come at least at noon? One day off is just something, and then you do not give sleep!
Well, you, however, and Sonya, - laughing, he pinned his girlfriend restless boy. - Sleep early go to bed, here and you will sleep!
If I'm a night owl, I can not be undone, just like you lark, it is impossible to force to go to bed late to Wake up a little first thing in the morning. - answered Masha. - Go put the kettle on while I wash. You're lucky my mom brought a very interesting picture last night, but until I drink tea and sandwiches, I'm not going to study with you.
No question!
Joyful Eugene jumped into the kitchen, quickly got the water in the kettle and set it on fire. While the water was boiling, he cut the bread and "doctor" sausage, smeared the pieces of butter and covered them with sausage.
Happy and proud of himself, he was already pouring tea when the kitchen came refreshed after washing and not so angry Masha.
After Breakfast, her mood improved even more, and she invited Zhenya to follow her to the room where they usually did their research.
Entering the room, Zhenya immediately grabbed a piece of paper with a drawing and could only say:
- U-u-x you-s-s, what a beauty! Is this also possible to do with a fractal?
Imagine that, you can! - replied Masha. - I myself was yesterday struck by the incredible beauty and uniqueness of this picture.
And now we can start the journey in this fractal? - ingratiating voice asked Eugene. - Please...
You ready for your math test? - tone of the teacher asked his Masha. - Maybe we should start with some lessons.
Masha, well, Masha, let's finish this up, but only after I get back from the trip? I promise I will be a careful and diligent student, I give you a tooth!
Okay, so be it, - have mercy, girl. - I can't wait to get inside this picture.
Where to start? - Zhenya asked. - Maybe, as always, from the middle?
Perhaps no, - shook his head thoughtfully Masha. - It seems to me that in the heart of this fractal there is a Royal Palace. I don't feel like falling on my head like the king of this Kingdom.
Let's try to come in here on the left. You see, there is something similar to the houses here, but they look less bright and pretentious.
Holding hands and closing his eyes, the guys presented themselves standing in the middle of one of the glades and a moment later were there.
Opening his eyes, they were surprised to find that around them was dim, the colors which are usually pleasing guys in these travels, now were dull, faded, evoked nostalgia.
I wonder what happened here? Why does this world not cause feelings of joy? - thoughtfully asked Masha herself, and immediately answered her question.
Perhaps, this nation is ruled by an evil and cruel ruler. We should deal with him.
And it would be good to ask the locals, - showed their awareness of such matters, Eugene, to find out more, why they live that way. By the way, did you notice that you can't see anyone on the square or on the streets?
I see, not blind, - answered Masha. - Let's knock on the door of this house, I hope they'll open it.
But in the first Lodge on a knock of children nobody responded, as well as in the second, the third...
Only on the very outskirts of the village the door slightly opened and someone's hand literally pulled the scruff of the guys inside the house...
When they came to a surprise, they saw a hunched figure of a man dressed in a work robe and looking at the children standing in front of him sullenly.
Who are you? What are you looking for? Who sent you? deaf raspy voice he asked the guys, drilling piercing eyes.
We are simple travelers, we like to travel around different worlds. So we came to you, wanted to meet you, make friends. Learn how you live, what you do. And about itself to tell, too...
But you seem to have something happened? Everyone hid in their houses, and so you have something gloomy.
Maybe, you will tell what happened, and we will try to help you, - finished her speech Masha.
Okay, if you do, then listen. My name is Peter, I'm the chief of the workers who live in this village.
We haven't always had this dark in our Kingdom. We can of fractals to extract the emeralds, build their beautiful homes and make them different sparkling ornaments.
If you notice, we have all around green, which radiate emeralds.
But not so long ago, out of nowhere, we were attacked by some people, the force captured the Palace and took our king prisoner, and we were imposed a rite - we now have all the emeralds that we produce, give them. For disobedience threaten to kill us all, and the Kingdom is completely plundered. Here we are now all afraid. - Peter finished his story.
If you help us to cope with them, we will be very grateful and will reward you generously. - he added.
You what? How can you offer us a fee? We help all selflessly, especially friends! - in one voice indignantly said guys.
The main thing is that you tell us now as much as possible about those who captured your king, so that we can better prepare for the battle. - Zhenya has already tried on the role of commander and Superman.
Tell me how to get to the Palace so as not to run into the guard, - said Masha, - and then we will consider how to proceed.
It's not a problem, I'll draw you a plan, following which you can go around the castle on the other side and knock on a secret door. My aunt Matrena will open the door for you. She's a cook there. She will guide you to secret passages in the closet, which is now languishing in captivity, our king.
Don't worry, she though not very young already, but perky, she is not lost!
To be continued...
