"P'WHITE Khurp?" FA asked.
"Yes, what do you need." White said, not looking up from her laptop .
"Can I ask you something?"
"Sure, go ahead."
"How was P'AJIN'S first mission?" FA asked curiously.
WHITE stopped her fingers running through laptop.She slowly closed her laptop and turned in FA'S direction.
"He... it was more like a practise." She remembers " he was just on his training which was pretty weird. Each time he used to come back with a new tattoo and and when ever I asked him about the tattoo , he use to say it was for work purpose."
"What was he trained with?" FA asked.
WHITE gave her side eyes. She knew where FA is taking this topic, she wants to know the root of this job. But, it doesn't matter cause she knew the half of it.
"He used to tell me that he was trained with the spirits which were captured, usually he would take only 3-4 hours to finish his training, but I remember once he didn't came back to our hostel all night."
"I sat in the lobby the whole night waiting for him, he came back around 4 or 5 A.M in the morning. I still remember he had many scars on his body, I took him to his dorm and checked on him, he was severely hurt."
"He said his boss insisted that AJIN could handle 'a special grade' he called it alone" White's expression turned into disgust.
"I really hate his boss, AJIN was just a 19 year-old and he thought he would be able to handle it alone."
"He said that they will only came to help him when he was on the verge of dying, I insisted him so much to leave the job there but he was just stubbornly and determined to find the person whom he saw in his vision."
"OHH he didn't tell me about this person before." FA said.
WHITE 'S eyes widened as she was caught telling something she shouldn't have.
"huh? Ne-never mind that." she said. "I'll tell you about his first mission." she said eager to change the topic .
"okay, how did he handle it?" FA said, casually cause she didn't want to lose the information she was getting.
"He was called there out of the blue, his boss said that his training was over and he was ready to go on a mission himself."
"Where did he go?"
"it was in the same town, we were in our twenties that time and I was close to graduate"
"He said it was pretty simple, just like his training and he came back with no scars, even GORYA was shocked AND his boss for the VERY first time said 'GOOD JOB'.
"After that he was frequently sent to mission and came back unharmed, his salary increased and his boss said he had great skills to work with."
FA looked a bit disappointed at that.
"What happened?"
"Nothing , it's just that P'AJIN already had the skills to deal with this, but i'm hopeless in this case" she said sadly.
WHITE kept a hand on her shoulder, "I really shouldn't say this because this job is dangerous, but if you have the determination to do this, you can, because that's what kept Ajin going and falling apart. His determination to find ENIGMA."
FA was delighted after listening this !
WHITE suddenly, casually put her arm around her, "So, a big crush on my best friends, huh?" she said smirking.
FA coloured deeply under her arm. "Uhh- like, yea, he is good looking."
WHITE fake-gagged, "you would not believe me how silly he was back in school, once he literally went to medical shop and asked the employee if they had any medicine the employee laughed at him so hard." WHITE laughed by recalling the old good days ,FA gave her accompany .
"And yeah MJ and AJIN both were unseperatable and would pull pranks on everyone in the class, they didn't leave me too ! what an Idiots they were" she said while signing.
"who's MJ , like 'Mary Jane' from spider-man?" FA asked.
WHITE laughed at the assumption. "No, he was our friend back in high school, we use to be a trio, but after we graduated from High school he went abroad to join a university , we lost contact after a while, I still miss him tho"
"P'WHITE please tell me more about P'AJIN and his past life"
WHITE seemed enthusiastic about that and started telling FA about the pranks they pulled back in their school.
--------Pataya city-------
Ajin knew that the spirit is controlling Boston but he doesn't know how to destroy it.
At the end he will have to kill him.
It's not that Ajin has not killed people before, he has, during his missions and once an old man during the end-season of his training. But this was a kid. He has never killed a kid before.
But he has to...
Firstly he needs to distract him to put a veil so that normal people cannot look at them while they were using magic.
He kept his left hand on his right forearm where his tattoo of a butterfly is. He reads his mantra and hundreds of butterfly deploy behind him.
BOSTON was shocked and before he could recover, AJIN sets a bunch of butterfly on him.
This would keep him busy for at least 5 mins. He turns around, crosses his fingers and recites.
"Emerge from the darkness, darker than darkness, purify which is impure."
A veil starts developing at least 20ft above him and starts spreading, till it reaches the ground, making a hemisphere around them.
He turns around to find if BOSTON still struggling with those enchanted butterflies. Ajin smirked, walking towards him professionally.
"Can't even deal with this? You seem weak." Ajin said tauntingly. 'it is not wise to anger any spirit' his boss had said while his training.
But he thinks otherwise, cause when something/someone is angry, it tends to take action faster, without thinking which may result in a mistake and always AJIN tries to find the same opportunity.
"Fuck you!" shouted Boston while batting away a couple of butterflies by a blade he must have conjured.
All of a sudden, AJIN heard a rustle in the veil, like someone from outside was trying to get inside. But... normal people or people who don't know about the veil cannot identify it.
It must be another curse. He should finish BOSTON soon and then check what the disturbance is about.
He vanished the remaining butterflies with a sway of his hand and faced Boston.
BOSTON was very furious because of his sudden downfall. He sent a dark cloud smoke towards AJIN in anger. And now this was his mistake. AJIN smirked.
AJIN kept his hand on his forearm where the tattoo of a sun with dark fumes inside was located.
A great sun like structure emerged and the black cloud was swallowed by it. Then it surrounded BOSTON . He was like an ant in a bubble.
The rain stopped and the dark cloud started to unmerge. Boston was losing his power and was hitting on his surrounding weakly. His soul was being sucked by the circle when he finally collapsed.
He was gone.
AJIN closed his eyes for a minute and chanted prayers for BOSTON. Then again, the rumbling began. The sun's circle was hard to conjure and almost took all his energy.
But, he has to fight whatever is on the other side of the veil. He weakly walks towards the end of the veil and kept his hand on it. The veil disappears.
His eyes locked with another and his mouth wide open with shock. "MJ!"
MJ proceeds to hug him. "Are you okay? Are you hurt somewhere?" Both of them were still soaking wet from the rain.
"No- but what are you doing here?" says AJIN ; his head resting on MJ's shoulder.
"My flight's landing was near this town and this accident is all over the news. I contacted WHITE with my mom's number and she told me that you were here. Then I recalled WHITE telling me on the call that you got your job in university related to your vision and black magic." MJ said.
AJIN pushed him away and held both his hand on MJ's shoulder to look at him properly. "Are you crazy?! You shouldn't have come here . It's dangerous!
"But then I saw you from afar, you were reciting something with your fingers crossed and eyes closed. I tried calling your name but you were gone as though something invisible took you in." MJ said looking genuinely horrified.
AJIN couldn't help but laugh "Yeah, that's part of my job."
AJIN looked at MJ fully, he was a lot taller now as compared to when they were in high school and his hair had grown longer, tied in a small ponytail, his eyes- shia, his eyes are looking behind Ajin.
"What's that?" he indicated towards the circle which had BOSTON.
Both of them started walking towards it but AJIN told MJ to stay a bit further.
He went up to the circle and removed it. The dead body fell to the ground.
Behind him MJ gasped, "What's that?" he asked coming near.
AJIN got on his knees and closed Boston's eyes, "he's resting" AJIN said calmly.
"In pieces! The man is dead!" MJ shouted, horrified.
"Calm down, first I have some jobs to do, then I'll explain everything to you."
MJ nodded, still looking at BOSTON'S body in horror. AJIN turned around and walked inside the building in which BOSTON has kept all those people.
He discharged all of them and displaced their tragic memory by an earthquake.
He took MJ and got out of the town. The police who were patrolling outside the town went inside to rescue after seeing the sunlight.
They went to FA'S house, where WHITE is living, while MJ derived and Ajin was exhausted, sleeping in the passenger seat.
This mission has taken so much of his energy.
