Chereads / Age Of Assassins / Chapter 2 - Chapter 2- An unavoidable past

Chapter 2 - Chapter 2- An unavoidable past

As the class is going on everyone is paying attention to the class but Karan is wondering" This Virat guy, I should stay away from him.".

Miss Sane announces something to the class" Class the next topic is a little different from regular, and it's called THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT.".

.

Everybody gets confused and Ambika asks Shavi " do you know anything about it?" To which Shavi replies "Hmm, not really.But it has something to do with different choices we make in life.". Ambika replies" Wow, I never knew something like that!!".

As Karan and Virat watches Ambika and Shavi talking to each other, Virat reaches out to Karan and says" She might not look like, but she is very scary sometimes, so don't even think about it!". Karan, confused, asks Virat" what are you talking about!! I'm just surprised that they are getting along very well!". Virat nods with a serious look on his face and says," Hmm!, That is concerning, cuz Shavi doesn't get along well with others!!".

Karan with a frustrated look says" Not that dummy I'm talking about Ambika, cuz I'm the only friend she ever had. She never had a friend other than me, so seeing her making new friends makes me happy and a little jealous.".

Virat smiles and asks Karan "What is she, your girlfriend?!", To which Karan starts blushing and says " What are you 14?!, I'm just jealous because I also want to make more friends!", To which Virat replies with a smiling face " I can be your friend.", As Karan hears this he instantly replies" No!! , Not in a million years!", Virat replies " Ok no problem!, Your loss. And I'm 16 btw!". Karan backs away from this conversation and thinks " he's older than me!! I'm only 14.".

Miss Sane suddenly shouts " Silence!!!" , Everyone gets scared and sits quietly.

Miss Sane says " So what is the butterfly effect? The butterfly effect is the sensitive dependence on initial conditions in which a small change in one state of a deterministic nonlinear system can result in large differences in a later state. This is the definition but to simply put it even a small change in your life can result in something bigger that you never imagined. Let's take an example, like Karan, if he decides to study hard now then he can achieve many things that he never would have imagined. So, the takeaway here is that even if there is a small change or a big change it will eventually affect your future and that's why we should work hard from the start.".

Virat whisper's in Karan's ear " That means if I fart here could it become a tornado?"As Karan hears this he bursts into laughter and everyone stares at him and thinks " ya he's dead", Ambika thinks " that idiot!". Miss Sane says " Karan meet me at my office in 5 minutes!!". Karan thinks " I'm dead.".

*bells rings*

Miss Sane says " Ok class this is it for now , enjoy your lunch break and Karan follow me!" Karan agrees and says " yes mam".

*IN THE FACULTY OFFICE*

"How many times have I told you to concentrate on your studies, but you just want to have fun in the classroom!!" Miss Sane scolds Karan as he is standing guilty with his head down. Karan says " but mam Virat whispered a joke and i l-laughed.", To which Miss Sane replies " Ok !" Karan looks at her with a surprised yet confused face and smiles a little.

Back at the classroom, Virat is laughing at Karan as he is getting punished as Ambika sees him laughing ,she kicks Virat off the bench and says " why are you laughing you moron, you should also be there listening to Miss Sane!!. I'm going outside to get some air!".Ambika walks outside as Virat watches her and thinks" Now I know why they both are getting along this fast!". Shavi helps Virat get up and says" Don't forget why we are here!".

A student approached Shavi and Virat and asked them, "Why are you both sitting next to those weirdos?" Both Virat and Shavi glance at each other surprised, before answering, "What do you mean?" The student replies, "Oh? So no one told you yet?" they said ominously, "Guess I'll have to tell you then."

Both Shavi and Virat confused sits and listens to the student as he explains "Long time ago, like when that Karan was 5 years old, one day he killed his own father!!"Both Shavi and Virat get extremely shocked as they never expected to hear this and Virat thinks" what?!That guy!!!!", As they are shocked the student explains" And when police investigated the case, they also concluded that Karan is the only person who could have killed his father, as Ambika's family also supported him they were also wrong, in the end the whole village started to maintain distance from both of them, we were told by our parents to stay away from them so you should also!, otherwise I don't know, they might kill y--" as he was to say this Ambika steps in and say" well if only you could pass one subject!!, Now get lost asshole!!"

Ambika with a sad look says to Shavi and Karan" If you think helping people who need support to survive in this world is wrong!, then I can't do anything but walk away, there are empty seats in the 4th row you can sit there!". Ambika leaves the classroom with a grim look on her face.

*IN THE FACULTY OFFICE

"Now , Karan answer me! What is your dream that you want to achieve in your life!", Miss Sane asks Karan and Karan replies " I want to help people who are weak, who depend on someone to protect them, I want to become an assassin so that they can depend on me to protect them, I want to become the strongest assassin ever to live on this earth!",

Miss Sane asks him " So you want to become an assassin hmm??, Which means you possess Daivi ? Isn't that right!" Karan with a sad look says" I-I don't know…, yet!" , To this Miss Sane replies" Daivi isn't something normal humans possess, Karan!! It is the power bestowed by the god's and it is passed down from generation to generation, it's not something that you could magically get!" Karan nods with a sad look and Miss Sane says " look Karan I knew your father!, He was an honest and a kind hearted man and I know that he didn't possessed any Daivi, and you are his son!!!, Which means that you don't have any Daivi in you!!". Miss Sane continues " I know there are many threats in our world but there are assassins who are fighting for our sake, so we can live safely!!, so let them do their job Karan and you do yours and your job is to study cuz you are the future of this country!!"

Karan stood there with his head down without saying anything , glaring at the floor with despair in his eyes, he didn't utter a single word and just stood there like a tree.

Miss Sane tries to cheer up Karan and says " Don't be like that Karan! You can do much more, leave that aside!!, Tomorrow is your birthday, you should invite your new friends to your house!!, Hmm what was their names…., ah ha, Virat and Shavi , come on now, leave!!", Karan leaves the room with sadness and thinks" But he said that I can become an assassin!!!".Karan proceeds to his classroom.

Virat and Shavi are chasing Ambika and trying to talk to her as they are going Virat is saying" Hey!!, I know that Karan can't do anything like that!!",and whispers "at least I wish!" Ambika stops!, Shavi also stops but Virat falls face first on the floor. Karan approaches from the back and says " Hey!! Everyone I'm back aliv-" as Karab says this he stumbles a wet mop and falls down the stairs.

Ambika says " ignore him!" To which Virat asks " Who?", Ambika replies "Good!". Ambika takes Virat and Shavi to the playground and asks" what do you want?" To this Shavi replies " We want to know if that boy was lying or not!Did he kill his father or not!!!",

Ambika with a sad look said " YES!".

Did Karan really kill his father???
