Vayu family mansion.
The huge mansion is located in a area which covered more than 20 acres of land. One can say that the Vayu family is the most richest household in the city. The family head Naman Vayu is the CEO of an Multi National Company called VIC. VIC is the most famous brand in Fashion, Electronics as well as in Auto mobiles. The brand VIC was famous since old generations both notionally and internationally.
Ajay was having dinner with his parents. He was in his casual clothes. The dining hall looked very elegant with modern interior. The dining table itself could seat more than 20 people. Naman was sitting in the main seat and his wife Mona Vayu was sitting next to him. She is an elegant lady who is 45 years. Ajay was sitting quite far from them and the servants were serving them.
Naman, "How is the new school? Are you settling in alright?".
Ajay, "Yeah".
He said nothing more than that.
Naman tried to continue the conversation by saying, "It was hectic in the meeting today, wasn't it".
Ajay, "Yeah".
He was silent again. The conversation failed.
Mona who was watching them calmly put her spoon down and asked, "Honey, you are looking exhausted, are you alright?". She asked Ajay.
Ajay, "It's nothing but just an headache. I will be fine if I get some sleep".
Naman thought, "Why is he only answering his mother properly but not to me?" He felt sad.
Mona was worried, "If it hurts so much, why don't we see the doctor? He will come here if we call him" she asked.
Ajay suddenly flinched. He put down his spoon and said, "I am fine mom, see you in the morning, Good night". After he said that, he hurried to his room.
Naman turned to Mona, "Why did he leave in such a hurry? Is he okay?"
Mona, "I wonder".
"I hope he is doing fine. He is been keeping things to himself. It's worrying me". Naman was worried. He was angry at himself for he had no idea how to help his own son.
Mona, "He is like this from that time. Even after knowing that, we can't help him at all. He has never smiled since then. It hurts to see him like this". She became sad and started crying silently.
Naman came to Mona, hugged her lightly and consoled her saying, "It takes time for scars to be healed. And for scars that are as big as his scars, it may take some more time. Eventually he will be fine and everything's going to be okay. He will be okay. Yes, he will be okay". One could not understand whether he was consoling her or himself by his words.
Ajay came inside his room and closed the door with a loud bang. He rested his back to the door thinking, "There is no way I am going to meet that psychotic doctor again. That guy seriously has got some screw loose". He shivered remember him.
He opened the glass door that linked to the private terrace. He came out and looked up. The moon was bright and the wind was blowing nicely.
"I wonder what she is doing now? I couldn't see her today".
His eyes softened, "Why am I missing her? I just met her. Even so, I feel like I know her for a long time".
His head starts to hurt again. "Danm it, whenever I think about you, my head hurts. What's happening to me? What are you doing to me? Who are you?".
He was having a massive headache. He couldn't think straight anymore. His body suddenly got weak. He got inside with the support of the wall. He wooblingly got in his bed and passed out. The pendent in his neck was shining.
In the Blue Commandos recruitment site, the first stage of recruitment was taking place. The candidates didn't seem to understand the concept of the first stage.
The arena was simple in a shape of square with a small stage in the middle of it. Something was placed in the middle of the stage. It looked like a big computer screen with palm shaped board placed in front of it.
The examiner came infront of it holding the tablet.
He started explaining the process of the first stage. "This machine is called Shakti measurer. All you have to do is put your palm on the shaped board and release your Shakti. Then this machine itself will measure your Shakti. But..... if you want to enter the next stage, your Shakti should be above 80 out of 100".
The candidates became happy that the first stage seemed too easy.
The exam invigilator stepped out of the stage and called out the first candidate. "Number 520, please come to the machine and place your palm on it".
Number 520 candidate, happily went near the machine and placed his palm on the board.
The exam invigilator, "Now release your Shakti".
Number 520 released his Shakti. His aura could be seen by the others. It was in the form of light yellow coloured smoke which was shining as it surrounded him. The machine beeped and the numbers started going up from 0 and continued going up and stopped.
The candidates were shocked as the number it stopped at was 45.
Examiner scratched the number 520 in his tablet and said, "that's the level of your Shakti. As it below the required level, you are not qualified for the next stage".
Number 520 was shocked and argued helplessly. He didn't believe his level was low. "No way, my Shakti level is not this low. Probably this machine is malfunctioning".
The other candidates became restless and started making noises.
The assistant worriedly looked at the examiner.
The examiner sighed and went to the machine. He put his palm on the board and releases his Shakti. The light yellow coloured smoke surrounded him heavily and the count in machine went up like crazy and stopped at 96.
The candidates were shocked and looked at each other.
Sehanna, "oh...that Blue Commando is sure strong".
Nina, "I wonder how much I can score! I want to score more than him".
Surya, "Ha.... definitely, I will be the one who to score highest".
Blue thought, "He is full of himself".
The four of them weren't flustered by the exam at all. They rather seemd calm and cheerful.
The eliminated candidate couldn't come up with any reason after seeing the levelof the examiner. He left unhappy.
Like this, the process went on. Some of the candidates got the levels just above the margin like 81, 82, 83..... Some of the candidates were also eliminated.
Now it was the turn for the last four.
The examiner called out the next Number. "Number 537".
Surya got excited and said, "let's see who reaches the highest level among us'.
After saying that, he went to the machine and put his palm on the board.
He released his Shakti. Every participants looked at him surprised. His aura was so strong and the numbers on the machine went up so fast and it stopped at 93.
The examiner thought, "Oh..... there is someone who can score more than 90. Good". Thinking this, he marked the number 537 on his tablet and said, "You are qualified for the next stage".
Surya became happy and with a huge smile on his face, looked at the remaining three.
Sehanna and Nina smiled at him with a thumbs up.
Blue thought, "I am right after all. He is indeed strong".
Examiner called for the next candidate. "Number 538".
Nina, "It's my turn now".
Sehanna wished her saying, "Do your best".
As Surya came back to his place, Nina went up to the stage.
She placed her palm on the board and released her aura. Everyone were surprised again seeing that her aura was as strong as Surya and the numbers on the machine stopped exactly at 92 again.
Examiner thought, "How lucky. I got another one. Moreover it's a girl. I will definitely boast it with others".
He had a huge creepy grin on his face as he marked the number 538 and said, "You are qualified for the next stage".
The assistant who was watching him thought, "What's with the creepy grin? He is scary".
Nina went back to her place.
Sehanna smiled and said, "Good job".
But Nina was disappointed as she said, "I wanted to score more than Surya, damn it".
Sehanna, "Don't worry about it".
Surya, "She is right. Don't worry about it. There is still 2 stages left to compete with".
Nina looked at Surya's face and angrily said, "wipe that huge grin on your face before you say that".
Surya calmed himself and obediently said, "Okay madam".
The examiner called the next number, "Number 539, get ready".
Before Sehanna could go to the stage, Bule conveyed through his thoughts, "Seha, be careful not to release too much of your shakthi".
Sehanna gave him a smile which said "I have got everything under control".
Nina, "It seems like you are gonna beat my score".
Sehanna, "No way. My strong point in only Martial arts".
Nina was surprised and asked suspiciously, "really?" She really didn't believe that Sehanna had Shakthi lower than herself.
Before Sehanna could say anything, Surya interrupted them by wishing Sehanna, "Sehanna dear, do your best". With a smile on his face.
Sehanna went near the machine and thought, "I have to be careful".
She put her palm on the board and released her shakthi. The aura of shakthi surrounded her body slowly and it didn't give off any strong Shakti.
She nervously thought again, "slowly, slowly, release slowly".
She started raising her Shakthi little by little slowly and the numbers on the machine also started raising along with her shakthi. As it slowly reached 85, Sehanna took off her hand before it could raise any further and sighed in relief.
The examiner who was watching the whole process thought, "She passed the stage barley, but why do I have the feeling that she intentionally suppressed her Shakthi? She looks tired suppressing her shakthi rather than giving it her all. Interesting".
Sehanna thought that she did a good job but what she failed to notice is that she couldn't fool the experienced examiner and he has already noticed her.
He marked the number 539 and said, "You are qualified for the next stage".
