The Tunnel 4

Image result for soda pub


99% of the tunnels in the world are manmade. Remaining one percent is made from time and nature itself. One of such place is the Soda Pub. Though it’s natural; it turned out to be a manmade attraction spot. It’s famous for its pulpy sodas. 

With special organic soil, rich minerals and medicinal values, this place was home to many fruits and herbs. In early 80’s, this tunnel lost its natural virginity to one of the biggest Cafe chains in the world – The Star Ducks. After global warming and pollution, they are the next big threat to nature. When money flowed from all directions, they grew like creepers.

Soon after unveiling the tunnel, they bought it from the government and started a side business called the soda Pub. They turned all the special fruits, herbs and all edible materials into a pulp and mixed it with soda. Gradually they got addicted to its taste and became brand loyal to them.

But, one thing remained unique, untouched and universal inside the tunnel. It was its natural properties.  They tried to recreate the same soil and set up in many places around the world. Everything was a failure. They started digging more. They went towards a point where they could not return.

Well, even though every human being is different, one thing remains common for everyone, that makes them humans. It’s their curiosity. When the line of curiosity becomes an obsession, nature has her own way of balancing it.

The tunnel collapsed and soda pub got shut. Soon after that, the entire chain of Star Duck got shut one by one.
