Chapter 1 - The mystics

Mystics, that's what we call them. the people who were blessed with special talents and small-scale abilities which can only be accessed and used by a limited amount of sportsmen.

It all began in the early 1990s, the world was introduced to new abilities when a boy in India, in the state of Kerala began to flick and glitch when he was playing football.

That caused a lot of panic, news began to spread and it was the latest and weird hot news the world has seen in no time. Since then the world began to see more and more people show a plethora of new and variety of abilities beyond comprehension.

Wars have ended since then. Now wars are waged in sports, countries were beginning to see technological improvement, now devoid of wars, people's standard of living is better, now it's 2004.

But there is a new event, [Sports War] which was scheduled once every year, The winners will get all the glory and lots of money.The small amount of power began to make sports more interesting and exciting to the spectators.

My name is Kashi, and I dream of becoming a cricketer with all my heart, but there was always a problem that was blocking my path. Yes that's right, i don't have any abilities. Mystics usually awaken when they are 15 to 16.

only 35% of the world are Mystics according to status, but because of the small number of people awakening after this number estimate, there is a chance for Non-Mystics class.

Non-Mystics, because they don't have any significant power or Abilities and they still play with these powerful people, we call them Non-Mystics, it seems i am also destined to be a Non-Mystic.

Currently I am going to the local playground, i have friends that are also Non-Mystics, but there are 2 mystic friends, they've sent an application and everything about their abilities to the state team, they must be very proud, because of that, they are bullying us Non-Mysics.

Unfortunately their primary target is me, because I play slightly better than them, even without abilities I try my hardest to strike the ball, I can almost feel the super fast ball that will probably hit me.

Akash and Amaan, they are the awakened ones among our group, they were friendly and kind till then, but since they have gotten Abilities they've become 'superior' to us Non-Mysics.

Akash had the ability to change the trajectory of the ball He has touched slightly in mid-air and Aman had the ability to see the trajectory of the ball that was coming towards him.

We've become easy prey to them and here i am walking through the rough grass that tickled my legs, i am wearing shorts as that is easy to move in.

"Sarath! what's up? you've been away from home for a week, what happened?" I asked one of my friends who were seated on the bench that was located outside the ground.

"Nothing much, my father came home on vacation last week from Dubai" Oh that's good news for him.

"That's good, how was he?" Sandeep asked as he leaned backwards to the bench.

"he's well and has no problems, we spend time going around touring places and all. that's why I didn't have any chances to come here last week."

"oh, well now that you're here, let's play!!" Anoop said as he jumped on my shoulders.

"Yeah let's go and water the grounds before the others come" I said as we walked to the small lake with a bucket and took water and placed them aside and began taking water on other buckets as well.

Once all the 5 buckets were filled, we began to sprinkle water through the ground and made it slightly wet.

Now we can stake the stumps to the ground and wait for the pitch to dry. Sound began to fill the ground as others of the group began to walk in and settle everything before helping us.
