Chanaka stood in front of a hundred bastards of Yuzdin. They were all doing push ups, pushing the earth. Reaching for its core. He stood before them in folded arms. The students with fierceness and tenacity listened to the leaders commands.
57, shouted Chanaka as he paced around the warehouse. There were some students who could not push the earth down no matter how much he tried. Chanaka had no choice but to let them go. They left with respect and admiration towards Chanaka.
"We will come back stronger and able to do the task, master," said the students and left. Chanaka bowed down to them as well. He looked at his watch. "Sato," he called out. "Train them," he said.
"It is time for me to go to work," he said and walked away.
Chanaka walked to his work site and got down immediately to his work. He once again saw the boss and the yuzdin surround him. Chanaka watched him as he inspected the work site one space after another. The boss did not even bother to look at Chanaka for a second. Guess, he did not think much of him. Once the boss was gone, Chanaka got back to his work. He needed to make money as the dojo was not paying anything. The students he was teaching free of cost.
Chanaka was absorbed in his work and was now working on a floor all by himself. He had fixed a lot of pillars and structures and wanted to take some rest. He had fallen asleep and woken up when it was night. There was no one around and it was dark all around. He got up immediately and saw that there was one room which had light in it. He was suspicious and slowly walked towards it. He made no noises and stood by the door. He saw the boss. Also there were two men tied to a chair. "Who was it?" asked the boss. "I don't know," replied one of the men in the chair. The boss took out his viper tongue and tore apart the head of him. Chanaka turned away. "Viper clan," he uttured. How is he part of the yuzdin? he wondered. There were more conversations and he heard the scream of the other person. His head was also gone. The boss walked out and Chanaka ran to the edge and jumped out of the building. He gasped and ran to his home.
