Chapter 12 - Chapter 11: Hidden Existense

The Reddy family had made the difficult decision to retreat from the world they once knew. With their newly awakened powers and the government's relentless search for potential candidates, it was clear that their safety could only be ensured by living a secluded life deep within the forest. As they prepared to leave their home and embark on their journey to a hidden hideout, the weight of their choices weighed heavily upon them.

In the dimly lit living room, surrounded by packed bags and crates, Mr. Reddy addressed his wife and son with a mixture of concern and determination. "We must tread carefully, my loves," he spoke, his voice filled with resolve. "Our powers are gifts, but they also make us targets. We must conceal them, protect ourselves, and ensure that no harm comes to our family."

Mrs. Reddy nodded, her eyes filled with both fear and determination. "You are right, my dear. Our abilities are precious, but they are also a danger. We must learn to control and harness them in secret, using them only when absolutely necessary. We must keep our true nature hidden from prying eyes."

Nitish, now known as Karna, stood silently, his gaze focused on the television set in the corner of the room. As if sensing his son's thoughts, Mr. Reddy turned to face him. "Karna, my son," he said, placing a hand on Nitish's shoulder. "You are destined for greatness, but greatness often comes with sacrifices. We must protect our family and preserve our abilities for the greater good."

Just then, the television crackled to life, and a news anchor's voice filled the room. "Attention, citizens," the anchor declared, her tone urgent. "In response to the recent emergence of individuals with extraordinary abilities, the government has established the Enhanced Individuals Registration Program. All individuals displaying superhuman powers are required to register with the authorities."

Nitish's eyes narrowed, his mind swirling with conflicting emotions. He had always dreamed of using his powers for the betterment of society, of becoming a hero. But now, the weight of responsibility pressed upon his shoulders, and the realization of the danger he and his family faced became all too apparent.

As the news report continued, Mr. Reddy turned off the television, silencing the distressing announcement. "We cannot risk exposure," he said firmly. "We must disappear, live off the grid, and protect one another. Our powers may be extraordinary, but they are not meant to be flaunted. They are a part of us, but they should remain hidden, known only to our family."

With heavy hearts, the Reddy family gathered their belongings and made their way to the outskirts of the city. Their new hideout, a remote cave nestled deep within the dense forest, provided the seclusion they desperately sought. They knew that their lives would be forever changed, but the safety of their loved ones was paramount.

Days turned into weeks, and the Reddy family settled into their new abode, surrounded by the mystical beauty of nature. They embraced their secluded existence, adapting to the challenges it presented. Mrs. Reddy utilized her divine healing powers to tend to the wounds and ailments of her family, while Mr. Reddy honed his summoning abilities, forging a powerful connection with the creatures of the forest.

Nitish, or Karna, embraced his training with determination and discipline. He sought to unlock the full potential of his inherited powers, mastering the transformations and abilities that came with his connection to the eight rathi body structures. Every day, he practiced in the privacy of their hideout, molding his body and spirit into a force to be reckoned with.

As they settled into their new lives, the Reddy family remained vigilant, keeping a close eye on the outside world through occasional glimpses of news reports and rumors that filtered through the forest's whispers. They knew that the power struggles and the monopolization of abilities continued, but they were determined to remain hidden, focusing on their own growth and protecting each other.

In this secluded existence, the Reddy family sought solace in one another's company and the enchanting harmony of nature. They became guardians of their own destiny, embracing their hidden powers and awaiting the day when the world would truly be ready for their extraordinary gifts. Until then, they would remain hidden, prepared to rise when the time called for their intervention.
