PATH TO ORIGIN
CHAPTER 7 : SHOWCASE
EARTH , INDIA-JAIPUR
"WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK" says Karan
"What are you saying you want to go to delhi ,even knowing that it can be dangerous" says Sanyam
" You don't need to exaggerate it , it wont be that dangerous ,its not like we really did some kind of crime or killed someone, so chill " Says Reyansh in a very casual and chill manner .
Then immediately Sanyam slams the table with his hand , he was full of anger and he was so mad that his eyes were covered in flames and his flames were starting coming from his back and they started looking like wings of pure destruction , he was looking like a incarnation of a demon.
"IM NOT TALKING TO YOU SO SHUT THE FUCKKK UUUPPP " says Sanyam with full of anger that he unconsciously burned the table , and slowly whole table fall apart . many of non awakened started cowering in fear , even other got concerned
"Sanyam calm down calm down , Khushi give a appropriate answer and take this very seriously and don't take decisions rashly , there can be many consequences of your decision" says Karan while calming down Sanyam .
After a while Sanyam calms down and then he sat on a chair nearby with a hand on his head awaiting a answer
"I,I" Khushi stutters and then she give a side eye to one of others student .
Then one student stood up and he spoke " Why should she give you an answer , she doesn't work for you "
Then another student stood and started speaking " Who do you think you are to talk to rudely to her , she was the one who led us till now , so don't try to act like that you're thinking about our safety or something like that "
Then another one spoke " ya she is the one who protected us "
And susprisingly one by one students started defending her and starting to interrupt the whole motto of conversation .
"SHUT UP , YOU EXTRAS NO ONE IS ASKING YOU " says Sanyam coldly while sitting on chair and eyes covered with his hands
"We need answers from Khushi not you guys , we heard every opinion of yours , even you spoke ill about us but we won't take it to our hearts and I'll expect you also don't take Sanyam's words to your heart too , Sanyam doesn't want you guys to be stuck in a mess or eventually die by someone's foolish decisions , but we want to hear a proper answers from your leader , if she gives a answer worth listening or which makes sense we'll respect her decision but tilll then quit down and don't try to make this whole situation difficult and Sanyam I know you don't mean that , but now don't use any harsh words here" Says Ayush while calming down everyone
After a while Everyone calms down and everyone looks at Khushi awaiting a answer from her , then Khushi quietly clicks her tongue and spoke .
"Thanks everyone for defending me , but I guess these guys don't respect your decisions" says Khushi
"What the.." Karan spoke with a confused face
"Quiet" Says Sanyam with his Eyes closed .
" I don't know what is that perfect answer you're expecting from me but there is none and if you want a honest answer its looking like you don't care about other opinions and thoughts , Me and my friends feel like Sanyam you and your gang are restricting us from doing things we want to do , you always act like that you are kings or something and we have to obey no question asked and it feels very dominating , just because you are little stronger than us you behave very rudely to my friends and I think you are stopping us , because if we left this place your whole monarchy will be over , me and my friends just want to get the hell out of here , and the danger you guys are talking about is just misconception or one of your schemes to restrict but not anymore even if you want to fight , we'll fight and escape from here" Khushi ends her speech with anger and tears in her eyes
"YOU MOTHERFU.." Says Aryan
"Quiet" Says Sanyam and now he slowly opens his eyes.
"so we are restricting you and not listening your opinions is that what you are trying say , am I correct " says Sanyam calmly with no expression on his face
"Yes that's what she Said , and we also agree " says Sankalp
"Ok then ,what do you want from us " Says Mudit
"Freedom" says Khushi
"pfft" Sanyam chuckles
"Is that funny to you " says Reyansh with a Serious Face
"No , ok then from now on you're free , the so called freedom that you think we took from you is given back to you , if you want to stay then stay and if not go to delhi and thanks" says Sanyam with a smirk on his face
"Thanks , for what?" Khushi questions.
"For informing us about all the black sheeps here" says Parikshit.
After some major discussion between them of the so called "FREEDOM" , Sanyam reaches out to Ayush who was the mediator of the whole conversation .
"Ayush I have task for , will you do it" Sanyam Whisper to Ayush
"Sure , what is it" Ayush replies
"You also go with them and keep a eye on them as a spy , because of your skill you won't be any danger " Sanyam says
"Hmm, even I think Khushi is plotting something , so as far as I understand I have to keep an eye majorly on Khushi , right " Says Ayush
"correct , and listen every conversation of Khushi there and there is one more thing....." Sanyam continue to talk
Time – 5:27PM
We see Khushi and her group were packing their stuff and starting to move to delhi from hostel and Sanyam and his group were only staring at them without saying a word , After they left Ayush Approaches Sanyam and says " Ok I'll be off now , I hope that works out , and also are you really serious about that "
"Hmm , now see you soon " Sanyam laughs
"Hahahah sure , See ya " Says Ayush then he vanishes from there
After a while
" So what should we do now " Says Parikshit
"We'll eat first" says Sanyam while laughing
"hahahhhahahhah" Everyone laughs
After a good meal they go back to their room , but while everyone were leaving Sanyam reached out to Rakshit and Shubham before going to their room
Next Day ,Time : 4:30PM
We see Sanyam and others were having a casual conversation , then we see Aryan ran toward them from Mess's gate
"Sanyam , Mudit , everyone listen , huff huff huff" Aryan spoke while catching his breath
"What happened " Karan spoke
"did you saw the news , about Awakeners meeting , about catching all criminals " says Aryan
" well that's good news then right " says Mudit
"No , there is a news some students were arrested for killing innocent people and other criminal activities sand they are none other than students from our hostel " Aryan replies
"WHAAAAATTTT" says Karan and others
"That's right , I cant understand what is going on. Today there was no major meeting , they only arrested criminals and students , the real meeting is tomorrow evening" Says Aryan
"Wait let me contact Ayush regarding this " says Sanyam
Then Sanyam calls Ayush using his status window and wait till Ayush accept call request , after some time.
"Hello Ayush we saw the news what is happening there" Says Karan
"Huff , huff , wait a second let me get to a safe place "Says Ayush who was out of breath
"Wait , someone is chasing you" Says Parikshit
"Yeah , wait for some time " Says Ayush
After some time Ayush informs them that he got some kind of information regarding the whole matter , and because of this information he is getting chased by government.
"hahaha , Sanyam looks like because of you I officially became a criminal " Says Ayush while applying a bandage on his hand , while sitting in some kind of tunnel
"Sorry about that Ayush , but what exactly happened" says Sanyam while apologising
"ok, so when I reached delhi ,everything was normal even government allotted rooms for Awakeners so I thought it was all normal , even I thought you were worrying for nothing , but then came the time of a small discussion between Awakeners and President and his official it was nothing serious , it was more like a tea party , but after everyone starts leaving the room , Khushi reached out President and then asked him to have a private discussion with her , I found that super suspicious and I followed them inside their with my "HIDE" skill , so no one notices me then Khushi proposed a idea to president
{edit from Writer : Everything inside "[ ]" this is considered flashback or talking as third person , hehe enjoy reading }
[ Khushi sips her tea and says : Sir I know you are facing lot of issues because of this Catastrophe and getting pressured by people .
One Official replies : "What are you trying to say"
Khushi replies : " I just thought , why not I give you helping hand in this , to stop public anger and maintaining order "
President replies : " I'm listening "
Khushi smiles and says : "I have a plan in my mind , I know you aren't able to catch any criminals to satisfy public anger , then why don't you use some replacement instead , public really don't know face or information about the real criminals then why don't we use some others Awakeners at your disposal "
Third official replied : " you want to use innocent civilians , it's a crime YOU BITCH who do you think you are "
Khushi replied : " I'll take that as a compliment hehe , but first listen to me the non awakened and awakened with low rank skills can be sacrificed for the greater cause , and don't worry you don't need to worry about where we will find sacrifices , I brought some people with me , they can offered as investment that will benefit us in future"
President said " and will they listen to you "
Khushi said " obviously , after My real skills are Frost Magic(AA) and Mind Manipulation (AAA) "
"Whaaaaaat , Mind Manipulation" All officials gets shocked
President thinks for a while , then replies " Ok , we can do that and in exchange for what do you want"
"Hahhahahahah , Sir you are very smart you truly understood the concept of fair business. so what I want a Access to Indian Museum , and I want you to ....." Khushi says ]
and that's the whole conversation and also there was one person who when entered the room , he sensed presence and because of him I was nearly caught "Ayush ends
"Hmm, thanks for the report now you can rest now" Sanyam replies
After Ayush ends the call with some other information , and after some time .
"Sanyam this Khushi is truly a Bitch" says Aryan
"Ya , she is sacrificing those innocent student , who literally did nothing , and I want to trully say Government is Shit" says Mudit
"So what should we do now " Says Parikshit
After a some thinking Sanyam replies with a smirk on his face " Let's have a trip to Delhi , Rakshit are all materials ready "
"yes they are even Shubham prepared some clothing for you guys " Rakshit says with a Smile
"Wait , you knew something was going to happen" Says Karan
And Sanyam only blinks at him with a smile , then after some minor discussion they starting packing and left to delhi "
NEXT DAY
DELHI ,Time: 8:20PM
We see at this time there were 5 times the number of Awakener from yesterday walking around "PRESIDENT HOUSE", there were lot of people there from kids to even senior citizens , they from all over the India , some were from Assam, some were from Tamil nadu and some from Mumbai and all type different cities , but now there was no language barrier because of "UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE". Then we see President is sitting near stages and many bodyguards and official were sitting there
"Sir , as we expected many of the Awakener came today only , and with my ability I can sense that they are more powerful than those who came yesterday ." says a woman near President .
"Well that was obvious and I'm surprised these so called Awakener Know ways of world" says President
Then after a while we see seven men enter the main hall , they all were wearing black suits and shoes and suprising thing was that they all were wearing Kitsune masks and everyone was staring them , even government officials were confused and only President was giving wicked smile after looking them , then the woman near President spoke "Sir, this group is the strongest than all the other groups we saw before"
"Ya , I can also feel that and hiding their identify on top . I guess they are smart enough to have proper conversation" says President with smirk on his face
And these Seven are none other than Sanyam and his group.
"Hey Shubham now that's what I call a flashy entry " says Karan
"hehe , I know right " says Shubham.
"Ok , now everyone calm down lets also act kinda badass or cool too hehehe, since the main meeting will take some time we can chill " Aryan whispers to everyone without flinching a bit .
"hehehe , good idea lets have some fun" says Mudit while laughing
"you guys continue I will use my Chaos finder ability to Check who are powerful here " says Sanyam
"ok then , we will roam around here then meet at award function" says Param
Then Sanyam continue to look for every strong person there and analysing the whole situation there while everyone were enjoying the party and they were striking conversion with those Awakened players that Sanyam tells them .
After a while the main award show starts , and everyone were receiving their medals directly from president and everyone having fun and some were also having wines and alcohol it was more like a party rather than award ceremony . After some time President asked for a meeting with every group representative , and only two people were allowed from one group.
"then Karan you should go with Sanyam , since Sanyam ability will be useful and if any problem arise you can take care of it " says Param
"Hmm Sounds like a plan" Karan agrees
Then both Sanyam and Karan enters the auditorium with other representatives ,it was a large round table for atleast 50 people to able to sit , in middle there was president on his right prime minister and on his left there was familiar face , it was none other than Khushi , when Karan saw her he tried to charge toward her but stopped by Sanyam.
"Calm down "NOIR" , this is not the right time don't try to act out " ROUGE says to NOIR
{Edit : since Sanyam and his group are hiding their identity they are going to use nickname around everyone
For example KARAN = NOIR
SANYAM = ROUGE
ARYAN = BLANC
MUDIT = VERT
PARIKSHIT = JAUNE
RAKSHIT = VOILET
SHUBHAM = BLEU
And that's it , now reader continue reading
}
"but ROUGE" NOIR replies
"don't worry NOIR there will be chances" ROUGE says
After some time meeting starts , in this meeting this majorly is related to current state of the country and how many people were lost and how the country financial condition dropped and everyone started giving their opinions to tackle this Catastrophe , there were many debates and how should both government and Awakener can help each other , in this whole conversation Both ROGUE AND NOIR didn't spoke a word and were only observing others , even President was quiet and was only listening everyone opinions .
"SIR ROUGE , SIR NOIR do you wish to speak something " Mediator of the whole conversation spoke
"No we don't , you all continue " Says ROGUE
After some time President spoke " So I think everyone thinks of same think , that everyone should work together to deal with the problems that we are currently facing then I have a plan and I wish propose it to you " Says President
"What is it Sir President" says a man with built body and long furry hair who was looking more like a lion
"Sir Aslan I'm proposing to form a Organization with all the Awakeners and government , you can work under government without any legal problem and even I will provide tasks related to it so you won't face any issues under this and it will called "AWAKENED ASSOCIATION " and we will give you a very high rank in it so what do you think " President says
"hmm, it's a good and safe idea " everyone were thinking it was worth complimenting but some have their own doubts and problems"
"Then I would like to Appoint leader from you Awakeners and I would like to Choose Miss Khushi , she is a very exceptional talent and also got familiar with this world and also hold great leadership skills…." And while President was speaking both ROUGE and NOIR stood up and started to leave .
"Mr ROUGE , Mr NOIR where are you going " says President
"Sorry sir but we don't want to work under anyone" says ROGUE
"And under Ms Khushi its practically impossible" says NOIR ,After saying that they continued to leave the auditorium . Then suddenly their feet were frozen with ice .
"Who allowed you to leave" a voice came behind from them it was Khushi .
"What's the meaning of this" ROUGE says with cold voice
"Sorry Sir Mr ROUGE but you can't leave until you listen to us" says Reyansh which came behind from Reyansh while his battle knives were flying in the corners.
"As expected" says ROUGE with a low voice , then suddenly we heard a commotion outside the auditorium . then suddenly hear a loud bang on the gate .
"Who is this ? , What's happening" a Officials shouts at gate .
Then after another bang whole gate was destroyed and got blown and fell on the round table , and everyone barely dodges the impact , then we see on gate BLANC, BLEU, VERT , JAUNE , VIOLET were standing .
"oopsie looks like my punch did way more damage than it should be , is shouldn't sacrifice lot of stats while doing it , it was a great learning hehe" says BLANC
"Lets charge " says VERT .
Then suddenly we se the ice that covered ROUGE feet melted and then he melted ice on NOIR with help of ROUGE's skill.
"Do you really think you can stop us Khushi " says NOIR
Then suddenly BLANC shouts " Sacrifice 3 of all stats , LETSSS GOO CHAOTIC SMASH" and then BLANC charges at Khushi while shouting.
Then from suddenly a man blocked BLANC attack with his huge hand , and that man whole body was humongous with big claws and beast like body and his face was of a lion with big teeth , he was non other than …..
"Young miss do you need help " says that beast with a roaring voice
"Thankyou Sir Aslan , Please take care of BLANC" says Khushi .
"come on little boy , lets see how much you've got " Aslan says
"BLANC end this quickly possible " says ROUGE
"Sacrifice 5 stats " BLANC Shouts
Then BLANC and Aslan started fighting , firstly Aslan throws a punch , but BLANC easily dodges it and then BLANC started dodging his attacks and when given a opening he also throws a very hard punch on his face but was blocked by Aslan hands . and that was going back forth it was looking like they were evenly match .
"Kiddo , you're the strongest opponent I've ever faced hahahaha , but you'll lose eventually , my body is like a beast " says Aslan while laughing
"Tcchhh annoying " BLANC murmers
Then we see BLEU was taking Reyansh head on , whenever Reyansh throws a battle knife at BLEU but BLEU blocks with his "MAGIC MISSLE" which is white coloured laser and attacks with "FIREBALL" and "TAZER" which is a very small flow of lightning.
{ EDIT FROM AUTHOR : IF YOU ARE CONFUSED WHY BLEU = SHUBHAM USE LOT OF SKILLS WITH ONLY BEING LEVEL 1 , THAT'S BECAUSE SHUBHAM = BLEU "ARCHMAGE" ABILITY 1st SUBSKILL IS "1ST CIRCLE MAGIC " WHICH GIVES HIM AUTHORITY TO USE LOWEST SPELLS ON HIS OPPONENT , AND HE ALSO HAVE HIGHER MAGIC POWER THAN OTHER BECAUSE OF SKILL .
THANKYOU , NOW ENJOY" }
And VERT ,VOILET and JAUNE were fighting Sankalp and others , while using VERT "lightweight" and JAUNE who borrowed skill from ROGUE .
Then we see ROUGE and NOIR confronted Khushi face to face.
"SO Khushi do you really think you can defeat us " Says ROGUE , Then ROGUE ignites his flames on his hand and this time he was able to control his flames properly and didn't burned his clothes in the process, and then NOIR kicked the floor gently and moved his hand upward and his 'HELL BINDS" starting coming out of the floor and breaking all the flooring .
"GO HELL BINDS" NOIR used his skill to attack on Khushi , but Khushi quickly dodges easily ,the way she was dodging all the attacks it was looking very elegant , her movements were quick and flexible like a gymnast .
"Too slow" says Khushi then she quickly closes the distance between them . and suddenly her right permeated a crimson red aura and heels she was wearing turned red , then she did roundhouse kick on NOIR face after that much power and impact made NOIR flew toward already broken table, and even ROGUE saw that he was very shocked "HOW CAN SHE USE THAT MUCH POWER ON ONLY LEVEL1" ROUGE exclaimed , then he charged toward Khushi to attack with his fists which were covered in flames .
"ICICLE LANCE" Khushi triggered his skill , it was a spear made up of ice and suddenly that spear also got covered in the same aura and turned crimson red , then she quickly took the spear in her hand and blocked all ROGUE attacks , then she kicked ROGUE knees to disbalance him , and attacked him ROGUE got a minor cut because he barely dodged the attack and he fell on the floor , then Khushi throwed her Spear from a distance to Pierce ROGUE, but when the Spear was going to pierce him ,it was deflected by NOIR " HELL BINDS" and then we see NOIR mask was badly damaged even with defensive spell casted on it by BLEU it still broke through it and here was a lot of blood on his hand , and after defending ROGUE he also lost his balance and fell on the floor . then Khushi picked her spear and started walking toward them while laughing "HAHAHAHAHA, so is that the power that you always flaunt about You are same as before . "
Then we see both Aslan and BLANC both were badly hurt but both stood their grounds , then BLANC saw NOIR ,ROGUE VS Khushi . he was full of anger ." I can't waste any more time with this beast , SACRIFICE ALL OF IT " suddenly BLANC whole body started permitting the same aura as Khushi and then he punched Aslan with all his might then Aslan whole body toward Khushi .
Even Khushi noticed BLANC aura " You're skill is always been very annoying " Khushi murmurs to herself and dodges , when Aslan body flew toward her . with that much power Aslan was knocked out and was lying on the floor , then BLANC charged toward Khushi and started having brawl with all his might his both hands were badly damaged but he still didn't stopped, and at that time even Khushi was struggling . and then Khushi froze the entire floor to restrict BLANC movement .
Then we see both Reyansh and Sankalp and other were defeated , and VERT, BLEU, JAUNE and VOILET were coming to help , but eventually stopped with Khushi's skill .
Then Khushi came near both ROGUE and NOIR who were lying on the floor , then she thought " I Should try to use my mind manipulation , on him since that he would be useful asset in future " then she used her "MIND MANIPULATION" on NOIR but it was deflected because of skill rank , then she used it on ROGUE .
Then suddenly she entered ROGUE's consciousness , then she find herself in a different location than PRESIDENT HOUSE , it was a very dark space where there was nothingness suddenly stars and planets started forming , after some time galaxies starting form all around the dark space .
"so this is Sanyam's "DOMAIN", hmm its beautiful , then I guess I should find his core to manipulate him over " Khushi murmurs to herself.
"#$#%##$#$%#%$#" then she suddenly hear a loud and scary voice behind her , when she looks at her back she sees a large and scary creature it was something Monsterous .
"@#$#%$%$^%%^$$#$%#$##@$$" that entity roars , that entity was permeating that much aura that Khushi wasn't able to see him properly and her own consciousness was getting pierced through , and when the entity spoke she felt like her own soul was getting destroyed
"Whaat the hell is happenin,,, uhhh I I uhh what is goin….on uhh aahhh " she was crying out of pain when she was tried to look at the entity ,she suddenly got knocked out both in Sanyam's consciousness and real life inside President house . everyone got shocked and thought what happened .
"she got knocked out but how " JAUNE says
"its suprising , but its not the right time to think lets take everyone and run from here " says VERT
Then VERT use lightweight on everyone ran from their , after they reached abandoned house of someone who probably ran from there probably because Monsters . they tried to treat injuries of Karan and Sanyam .Ayush stole medicines and basic necessities from nearby to help them to recover , Shubham healed their minor injuries , cut or a scratch were healed with low rank heal spell to stop bleeding , Aryan was recovering from his Skill . they were resting till the others wake up
5 DAYS LATER
11 MAY 2023, TIME 8:30PM
Then we see Azzurakaizu at the top of the tower
"KUFUFUFUFUFUFUF,hahaha , finally 5 minutes after "TOWER OF VOID" will be opened , wait a sec looks like some players hurt themselves during these around the world , looks like they adapted to this ruined world quickly hahahah , but I cant leave them like this " after saying that he snaps his finger and a huge Magic circle was caste upon the earth and all the players were healed from minor to life threatening injuries , it was like that they were never injured .
"NOW LETS SEE WHAT TYPE OF SHOW THEY WILL OFFER TO THE GODS HAHAHAHHAHAHHA"
