The rays of the rising sun overthrew the dark reigning night, grandly declaring the world that tables have turned.
As the ambassador of God, it soared higher and higher enlightening the hearts of His children along the way .
In this God's made world the Sun just sets if at all, never dies.
Like the sky who awaits the rising Sun to topple the darkness, many forces around the globe too awaited for the rising of their leader.
Today's sunrise celebrates the awakening of that sleeping dragon who was put to sleep two decades ago ; he was not ready for this battle yet carried the hope of many in his every breath. Today time has changed, thus it is now necessary to remind him of his identity and purpose .
.....
A certain man admired the scenic beauty from the comfort of balcony as the world awakens itself from a deep slumber .
Oblivious of the fact that it is not just the world but also he himself is about to be awakened from his own induced slumber.
The largest island amongst the World Islands was the address of all material luxuries this world has to offer. The island currently holds the residence of the world most notoriously infamous business tycoon Aahil Oberoi.
A very ordinary name except for the fact that the man who holds the name is beyond extraordinary. His achievements set new records everyday. His calibre no one dare challenge him to find out. One move from. him and the entire global economy trembles like a massive earthquake. He was a man of extremely few words, but when he spoke each word was like a precious jewel.
Every government of every country wants his favour. Thus from presidents to royal families, business elites to superstars and from politicians to mob boss no one wants to be on his bad side unless they have a suicide wish.
Aahil Oberoi is currently the Chairman of the Deven Corporation, President of Unova Group of Companies and the Owner of Tres Spades Chain Of Hotels. Under these three corporate names ran countless business entities that earned profit like candies. There isn't an industry in the world that Aahil Oberoi doesn't have his brand in.
In the past twenty years Aahil Oberoi rose from an orphan boy to a living legend both in white as well as black world.
His fearlessness, impacable leadership skills and out of the way business sense has made him what he is today.
In this mortal world he is a living God. Money is his middle name. He is both extraordinary as well as the most dangerous man. Like a completely untamed beast who would stop at nothing to get what he sets his sight on. His mentor Father Fernandez's only worry is ' will god ever send an angel that can tame this saintly demon.'
In his initial years of rising Aahil formed a committee known as the Core Founder Members within his empire . They were people hand picked by him as he crossed paths with them under various circumstances of building his empire.
In the Oberoi empire that stands today the Core Founder Members are the second in command of the empire only after Aahil himself. It consists of people from various positions in the empire with extra ordinary talents in their respective fields. They are the people of Aahil's inner most circle and absolute confident.

Knock!! knock!!
With a slight knock on the door a young butler in a custom tailored suit entered the master bedroom with the morning coffee.
Upon entering he was greeted by the room itself instead of the man he was looking for. In the large master bedroom which usually remains in tip top order today was in complete disarray. The crumbled bedsheet, thrown away quilt and scattered pillow cushions showed some signs of struggle. The closed laptop and some work files laid on the bedside table .The empty beer bottles indicated that his master was probably drinking late last night. The curtains fluttered, dancing with the rhythm of the breeze. There he was, standing lazily in the balcony looking at the vast ocean unfettered by any of nature's romantic advances...
" Good morning Sir... " greeted the butler as he cleared away the coffee table before he prepared the morning coffee and placed some work files , waiting patiently with the morning reports.
He looked out at the standing man in the balcony and was slightly taken back by the sight. The shining sun rays kissed his handsome face while the wind played with his bangs. His every move was the ultimate definition of elegance . His detached and aloof look only amplified his princely aura. It reminded him how much his master has grown over the past years and how much he himself was able to grown after coming under his master's wing.
Aahil who was standing by the balcony, enjoying the scenic view of the sunrise didn't bother to reply. But sensing a pair of eyes on him first thing in the morning made him extremely annoyed.
" Congratulations Yuma. "
Aahil's sarcastic compliment pulled back the butler who goes by the name Yuma from his thoughts.
" My apologies Sir . I was just admiring the beauty of the sunrise " Yuma said defending himself with an innocent child like look.
Aahil lazily supported himself to the glass fence standing in the balcony with his gaze fixed on the scenery . Aahil didn't even spare a glance to Yuma but was aware of his slightest movement from the time he entered his room.
Hearing Yuma's reply Aahil finally teared his gaze from the scenery and walked back into the room with a raised eyebrow.
" How was your meeting last night Sir? " Not wanting to endure an intense interrogation session first thing in the morning Yuma changed the subject passing a cup of freshly brewed coffee.
" Okay." Aahil replied sipping his coffee, planning to mess with Yuma.
" Sir, these are the work files that needs your urgent attention and requires to be sent back to the office before your departure.
Also Vikram asked me to remind you that your flight will be ready by one p. m this afternoon for your trip to India.
Lastly Father Fernandez called you last night but couldn't get through so he contacted me later to pass on his message that he needs you back at school ." He finished his report only to met Aahil's mysterious gaze and even more his mischievous smile, as if his every action was just simply comical.
For a moment Yuma felt that those pair of dark brown eyes behind the rectangular glasses would swollow him whole. None spoke for a whole minute. Aahil's gaze simply didn't leave Yuma. Then again Yuma too understood his master's wish just from those pair of eyes. The thought still amazes him of how much his master actually understands him. Serving Aahil for nearly eighteen years Yuma mastered the skill to understand Aahil's unspoken words and the meaning behind his every look.
" It's been twenty years yet you are not satisfied with yourself, let alone your achievements. You still believe there are anymore more heights that can be achievable . "
Yuma smiled softly as he spoke.
" Only death can satisfy me " replied Aahil as his gaze turned back to the open balcony on the open ocean. His smile no longer tugging his lips.
At Aahil's words Yuma felt chill down to his very core. In other words until greeted by death nothing in this world posses the power to stop him.
" Why did Father called you last night?? "
Aahil inquired. His gaze still fixed on the open ocean.
" It is to request you to come to school. It's about the safe. He said he has a lead as to where you can find the lost key." Yuma answered as per the set script by Father Fernandez. He was having a hard time maintaining his composure just thinking about what awaited for them back in India.
" Key!!!"
The word key had a special meaning for Aahil, thus hearing Yuma's statement there was a slight hint of surprise in his expression. Though that was not for everyone to detect, only people who knew him long enough would notice these minor hints.
Understanding very well his mentor's nature Aahil's instincts told him that this year's visit back home would definitely be full of surprise.
Seemingly having no other choice as he never disobeyed his mentor Aahil decided to go along with whatever his mentor had planned for him.
" I'll be there. " Aahil said finishing his coffee and left the room with an expressionless look.
Yuma called in the house keeping staff as soon as Aahil left the room. He left along with the staff for his quarter taking the work files with him .
