The moment Anna saw the waterfall the little girl in her who was trapped for a long time could not be held back any longer. A big smile crept over Anna's beautiful and delicate face and she started running around the place in pure ecstasy. Her parents had never seen her so happy and they also did not stop her from doing what she wanted.

Vijay took the water for the horses in a small bucket he brought along with himself and told Mr.Wilkinson,"Sahib there are a lot of plants which are very rare, do you want to see them?"

Mr.Wilkinson was interested in plants and he would never miss an opportunity to observe plants in their natural habitat. So, he told Mrs.Wilkinson that he would take a little walk in the forest and left with Vijay.

Mrs.Wilkinson was not an outdoor person and she silently sat on a rock nearby and was seeing her teen daughter become a kid again. Anna had a lot of whims and fancies but never shared them with anyone or showed any interest because of the environment in which she was bought up in. She spotted an exotic bird and called out to her mother,"Mama look how beautiful this bird is."

Her mother was a little over protective about her precious little daughter and said,"Anna don't you go close to that bird,it might be wild and dangerous."

Anna replied,"Something this beautiful cannot be dangerous."

The bird was sitting on a rock near the falls and Anna was hopping from one rock to another and was moving near the bird.

Anna's mother cried,"Anna those rocks are slippery, watch your step."

The stones which were in the river were covered with moss and they had become really slippery.
Even as her mother was completing her sentence Anna was hopping from one stone to another and going towards the bird.

The bird naturally got scared and flew away and Anna slipped on a heavily moss covered stone and her head hit a stone nearby and she fainted. The water was moving very fast and her motionless body was carried away in the rapids. All this was happening so fast that Mrs.Wilkinson couldn't react at all. For a few brief moments she did not understand what had happened then everything came rushing into her head and she screamed.

Mr.Wilkinson had come to that spot by that time and on hearing his wife's cries came rushing to know what had happened. Even he saw Anna's body being carried by water and was just as shocked as his wife to react in any logical way.But he was quicker to get back to his senses and rushed near the river and wanted to jump into the river but was stopped by Vijay.

Vijay said," Sahib, The water is moving very fast,it will drown you also."

Mr.Wilkinson asked with tension and fear in his voice,"Where does the water lead to?"

Vijay replied,"There is another waterfall down this river and there the water becomes calm."

By this time Anna's frail body was carried by the water currents and it crossed the second waterfall also. Mr. and Mrs.Wilkinson along with Vijay rushed to the second waterfall with a little hope of finding her but to no use. She was nowhere to be found. The place was really beautiful but no one were really in the mood of admiring the beauty of the place.

Mr.Wilkinson hurriedly asked Vijay,"How quickly can we get away from here and get back some men."

Vijay said,"If we leave now we can come back at evening to search for Little Madam."
