"Wake up! Wake up, come on wake up."
Dan was trying to awaken Jacob.
"Why are waking me up so early? Cut it, let go"
Jacob disagreed.
"Come on you have to wake up! It's already 9: 30 you have to wake up. We have to attend Arman's birthday party. He has summoned us early, to help him with everything." Dan threw some water on Jacob's face.
"Hah! What is the time now?" Jacob asked.
"9:31"
Few hours later
"Huh, finally I am finished with cleaning the house. I should take a bath now."
Arman took a bath and came back.
"Which one should I wear? This one or this one. Hey Ali, which one should I wear among these two, this kimono or this suit?" Arman asked for Ali's advice.
"A worn out and old rag suits the likes of you." Ali silently whispered.
"What?"
"You will rock in the kimono bro." Ali tried to cover his words.
"Okay, so I will wear the Denim and the t - shirt and the jacket I wore on 31st December." Arman engaged himself in searching for the set of clothes he mentioned.
"If he didn't want to pay heed to my advice, why did he even ask me. Damn dumbass."
Ali grunted.
"Did you say something?" Arman asked.
"No." Ali claimed to have remained silent.
"By the way, I lisent to all the glabberish you were saying." Arman replied.
"Uh... Sorry bro."
"Making fun of me? Huh?" Arman roared at Ali.
"I will kill you!"
"Sorry!"
"And that's my brother." Arman grunted.
*********
And in the evening.
Arman was at the gate, to welcome everyone.
"Hey Arman! Happy birthday" One guest came and wished Arman.
"Thank you, please feel yourself home."
Arman sent them inside.
"When will those two twerps come? I did tell Dan to come at 11 o'clock, to help me. But they haven't come till now." Arman was worried.
"Happy birthday Arman." Another guest came.
"Thanks, please feel yourself home."
"Hey Arman! We have arrived, sorry for being late." Someone shouted.
Arman turned around, to see Jacob and Dan.
"Where were you? Didn't I tell you to come early?". Arman was very angry.
"Sorry bro, last night we sneaked out to get you a birthday present, and our parents found out about it. Till now, they were punishing us."
"Okay okay, let's go inside first."
Everyone enjoyed the party, and left for their homes.
That night.
"Huff, so many presents. I will need an entire day to open them." Arman was sitting on his bed, in front of a mountain of gift wrapped boxes.
"Let's first check Ali's gift. What's inside this?"
He opened it, and there was a wrist watch inside.
"Wow a wrist watch? Nice. Now Jamal's present. Wow, a new smartphone. And now Jacob's present, they said it was a quite costly for people of our age."
Arman unwrapped it and checked to see what it was.
"A diamond? What will I do with with it? Jacob and Dan? As wierd as always. And what is this pattern on it? It looks like fire. Maybe, it is a button." Arman pressed the pattern.
And then, an eerie voice rang out.
The gem became more and more luminous.
"What is this?" Arman threw away the gem, and wet his pants.
"Mommy, mom! Help me."
Adn then, some hot flames came out of the pattern formed on it. It entered Arman's body.
Arman went unconscious.
"Boss, we have located the powers. It is in a piece of land in the east of this planet."
A giant destroyer robot, no, H.E.X.A. said.
"What? Finally? After so many days. I will finally become powerful! Yeah!"
Soso's sad face turned cheerful.
Then H.E.X.A. said in a low voice."But, there is a small problem."
"Problem? What problem?" Soso's expression darkened
" It seems that... someone else has already taken the power."
"What? Um... Nevermind, I will kill him and snatch the powers. To the east, full speed!"
The next day
Arman woke up and sat on his bed.
"Was that a dream?"
Arman looked around for the gem.
"No it isn't, what was that? I should first tell Ali and Jamal about this."
Arman left his room.
In the bathroom.
Ali was brushing his teeth.
"Has Arman brushed yet? Maybe not. Is he still sleeping? I should check on him."
Said Ali. He finished brushing his teeth and came out of the bathroom. He headed towards the second floor.
"Big brother, are you still sleeping? Get that bag of bones of yours to moving. Now wake up.... What? He has already left his room? Since when did he start waking up this early? "
Ali saw that Arman had wet the bed.
"This boy, he is grown up, but yet he wets his bed. Of course, why wouldn't he? Afterall I am the one who washes the clothes, as the servants are on a week long holiday. But I will make him wash this." Ali snorted.
"Arman! Where are you? Come here, I have to talk to you now! Where are you? There he is."
Ali quickly came downstairs.
"Oh Ali, there you are. I wanted to tell you something..." Arman was about to complete his words but Ali cut off his words
"Big brother, you took a leak on the bed!"
"No Ali, you first listen to m...."
"No! you wet the bed."
"Please, it's importan...."
"No! you first listen to me, you peed on the bed."
"Atleast listen to me once."
"No, I won't listen to you. You listen to me, you wet the bed!"
Arman became very angry.
The aura around Arman changed.
Everything started to become hot.
The water in the fish tank started to boil.
"What is happening?" Ali also started to get skin burns.
"So you won't listen to me? Huh?" Arman asked in a scary voice.
His clothes started to burn away, and a stylish armor started appearing from behind.
His pupils change from black to red. Flares of fire were being emitted from his body.
He started doing some gestures with his hands, and then held them in a way that both palms faced each other and one was on the top of the other, with some space between them. Flames started accumulating between Arman's hands.
"Have this!"
Arman threw the ball of fire on Ali.
"Ahhhhhhh!." Ali got hit by Arman's attack. His face was black due to the ash deposited onto his face. Arman started to prepare another attack, but suddenly he was hit from behind.
He turned around to see a fourteen years old boy holding a frying pan in his hands.
Arman became even more angrier "Aaargghh."
He punched Jamal very hard. Jamal was sent flying.
Arman prepared another attack, but then Arman's anger lowered down, everything slowly turned to normal. The armor disappeared and Arman's normal clothes showed up.
"What happened? And why am I holding my hands like this? How did the house get burned?
And you guys, did someone do your cremation?" Arman was flabbergasted by viewing the scene in front of him.
few minutes later
"Hahaha Hahahaha. You mean to say, that I waved my hands like this."
Saying so, Arman did the gesture he did before. The ball of fire did appear, but Arman's gaze was locked on Ali and Jamal who were shivering with fear and were maintaining distance with Arman. So he didn't notice the fire ball.
"And I waved my hands like this." Saying so, he completed the attack.
"And then I moved my hands forward towards you to throw it at you like this?" Arman started moving his hands forward.
"No! Stop it! Now!"
Ali and Jamal shouted loud. But it was too late. The fireball came and hit them.
Arman was stunned to see his brother getting hit by mild flames in real time.
"What? This means that what you said was true. But how did this happen?"
Arman was surprised.
"Weeee Don't know." Ali and Jamal replied while crying.
"Wait, last night. Yup, I nailed it. Ali Jamal, come with me." Arman headed towards his room. "
Nooo, we won't come. You go." They were still crying, and feared Arman.
"Okay, I will go alone." Arman entered the room cautiously, he looked for the gemstone.
"There it is, Ali Jamal come here."
Both of them carefully approached Arman's room.
"That thing, last night I held it, and this happened." Arman explained it.
"Let's cautiously approach it. And be careful."
Someone said from behind.
"Yes." The three said in union.
"Wait, we are here. So who is behind us?"
Arman asked.
"It is me, fools." The voice rang out.
They turned around and saw that the gem was suspended in the air. And the voice was coming from it.
"Aaah! It's speaking, run."
They ran away from Arman's room.
But the gem popped up from in front of them.
The voice from the gem said "Listen to me once, I am friendly. I won't do any harm"
This continued for a long time. Until the voice coming from the gem freaked out.
The voice said in anger "Enough is enough! I am trying to explain things to you and you are running away? Now I won't let you leave."
Large vines made of fire came out of the ground and tied down Arman.
But then suddenly the roof got blasted away.
BOOM!
"You! Return my powers back to me." Soso appeared, descending from the sky.
