Hey, look there Jacob and Leo. What's that spark is coming from?
Leo - " From Silas's bag, Victor. "
Victor - " I can also see that it's coming out of from Silas's bag, but from where this spark is originating. "
Jacob - " Please stop talking about the spark. Callie is gone. "
[ Jacob starts to cry ]
Victor - " Leo, kindly pass on Silas's bag so that I can see the origin of the spark. "
Leo - " You shouldn't be doing this it's Silas's private thing. We should respect his privacy. "
Victor - " Oh! come on Leo, don't hesitate he is our friend. We will just see it and then will keep the bag to its original place. "
Leo - " Okay, but be careful. "
Victor - " Hmm, I will practice caution. Don't worry. "
On opening the bag, all three of us was shocked and were looking at each other.
Leo - " What's this, Victor. "
Victor - " I also don't know anything about it. Let me first take it out from the bag. "
It was messy and was wrapped in a white silk cloth.
Leo - " Remove the cloth fast, Victor. Why are you creating suspense like we get to see in movies? "
Victor - " Let us see what's behind the cloth ."
[ Victor removes the cloth ]
Leo - " What the ...., Victor you called it a spark. It's like a mini Sun, I can't see anything. "
Jacob - " I can't see anything either, Victor it's throwing heat. "
Victor - " Yes, but what is this thing doing in Silas's bag? "
Leo - " Ask him when he returns. "
[ Suddenly the shine vanishes in the air with a sharp voice ]
Leo - " If I am not wrong Victor, it's a weapon. "
Jacob - " It's an axe, Leo. "
Victor - " It's not an axe Jacob. It's a hatchet. "
Leo - " Yes Victor is right, but this hatchet looks different or should I say cool. "
Jacob - " Say whatever you want, Leo. Who is stopping you? "
It was not an ordinary hatchet. It was completely made up of black metal and its bit was so sharp that it could strike off at least three huge trees with just an easy stroke, the toe and heel of the bit had a completely different build-up. The cheek of the hatchet was made of pure and fine black metal which seems to have been heated up on the charcoal fire, it was so clear and one could see his face on it. The eye of the hatchet had a pointed peak. The body of the handle of the hatchet seemed to be made up of the finest metal on this planet and finally, the hatchet's knob had a white crystal which was the origin of the spark. The hatchet was a masterpiece and was not having a single flaw in any respect. It was just perfect and didn't need any phrases for its description.
Leo - " Victor where are you lost? "
Victor - " Just got captivated by the beauty of the hatchet. "
Jacob - " Wait for a second, what is this deadly weapon doing in Silas's bag ."
Leo - Let Silas return then we will find out the answer. "
Jacob - " What the ..., I have something to say. "
Leo - " Yes, sure but please don't dare to cry in the name of Callie. It's both a warning and a request. "
Jacob - " Yes, yes I will keep this thing in my mind. Today I saw a strange mark on Silas's palm which was bleeding. "
Victor - " Yes, we both noticed that when we were standing outside the class in punishment. "
Jacob - " Yes, but before Silas wrapped his bleeding palm with his handkerchief I saw a weird mark on his palm. "
Leo - " Why are you pausing in between, Jacob complete your sentence fast. We don't have much time to complete your sentence fast else the classroom will be filled again with students. "
Victor - " Leo will you please stop interrupting in between. Jacob goes ahead and completes your sentence. "
Leo - Oh! sorry for the inconvenience caused by me, Jacob. Now I will remain silent. Jacob, you may proceed. "
Jacob - " Thank you Leo for your cooperation. Where was I? Yes, I remember the mark on Silas's bleeding palm shares a resemblance with this crystal. "
Victor - " You are trying to say that Silas's palm got injured by this crystal. "
Jacob - " Yes, you got it. "
Leo - " Permission to speak. "
Jacob - " Granted "
Leo - " There is a carving on the handle of the hatchet. "
Victor - " You are right, Leo but it's written in some unknown language. "
Jacob - " Let me see it. "
Leo - " Go ahead, professor. "
Jacob - " Leo, get me a paper and a pen. "
Leo - " For what? would you like to tell us? "
Jacob - " To copy the craving on the handle of the hatchet, so that we can translate it afterwards as we have to keep this hatchet to its original place. "
Victor - " Pretty clever move, Jacob. "
Jacob - " Thanks "
Leo - " Good Jacob, you are learning in my company. "
Jacob - " Sure master Leo. It's all because of your able guidance ."
[ All of them laughs ]
Jacob - " Now let me copy the carving. "
Victor - " Yes, sure. "
Leo - " Jacob be careful in copying the text else our investigation will go in the wrong way. "
Jacob - " Yes I am practising caution, have faith in me. "
Victor - " Leo you go and stand near the door and warn us when anyone comes especially, Silas. "
Leo - " Roger that, Sir Leo is out for action. "
[ Leo leaves to stand near the door and keeps an eye on the corridor which leads to our classroom ]
Victor - " Jacob be a little quick it's getting late. "
Jacob - " Almost done, Victor ."
Victor - " Leo, everything okay out there. "
Leo - " All clear, General. "
Jacob - " Done "
Victor ( in relief ) - Phew, now let us wrap this hatchet with the silk cloth and keep it in rest inside Silas's bag. "
Jacob - " Yes, you do this thing let me keep this paper safely in my bag. "
Leo - " Our mission got accomplished should I come back or remain standing here and keep an eye on the corridor. "
Victor - " You can come back, Leo our work is finished. "
Leo - " Good, it finished early as my legs were complaining. "
Jacob - " Why were they complaining? "
Leo - " You don't know. Let me explain it to you. I was standing outside in punishment and then without giving any comfort to my legs I was sent to stand near the door to watch for people and warn you. My legs are trembling with pain and that is why they were complaining to me. "
Jacob - " Oh! now I understand it. "
Leo - " Good, now let me sit somewhere else my legs will collapse. "
Victor - " Come sit here, next to me. "
Suddenly I loud noise mixed with anger was heard by the three of us
" What are you three doing with my bag? How dare you touch it. Wait let me see it carefully. You have opened it. "
