Chapter 21 - Fighting death.

And then they threatened the military that they were gonna kill the hostages if they didn't stay back. And the family of that hostage, which was mom, seeing her daughter in their arms wheeled like parents should, she started to yell and cry. And the military, seeing the hostage situation, stayed back, but kept their aim at them. And then seeing the situation escalate, the apparent leader took out a hand speaker, and said in broken hindi. He was warning the people, and praying to Gods for the sins of people they're gonna kill. And that was the most that he could say. Because the next moment, the earth shook. And he paused, and then the earth shook again. And then again. It wasn't like an earthquake, it was like someone was punching the ground, something really big. Some people fell, and some more rubble fell. And then hears a grunt, not a normal grunt, it was animalistic, like a, like a lion. And then the earth shook, and the ground where raghav was standing, the middle stone circle, started to rise a little. Like someone was punching it from inside.

And then the growling sound increased, and then , every person present there saw Raghav , standing in front of the circle, and the military personnel was just a few feet away. And then they saw, nails, huge tiger like nails, penetrating the ground from inside, toring the stone platform, and with Raghav, in his back and bracers. A lion head starts to appear, with sparks. And he looked at it, and said,

" Narasimha. " In a whisper. And then with a roar . A huge muscular hand, made of the same blue energy, came from the ground, and hit the ground, beside Raghav, and the military personnel tried to move Raghav away, but he didn't even budge. And then from that whole, a shoulder emerged, and then slowly, a whole form. And then it stands behind the Raghav, towing over the temple, visible from really far, and after settling behind him. He took a small step back, and then, roared at the sky.

And for that moment, every single one of them felt. Everyone felt that God was walking among them.

And after calming the lion hybrid, looked at the broken door, and Raghav took a step ahead, and the lion mimicked the same.

And seeing the terrorist attention elsewhere the little girl rained toward her mother . And the terrorist notices that.

And inside Raghav sensed it, and he took his transformation stance, a v shaped boxing stance, and Lord Narasimha followed that.

And outside the terrorist fired his gun at the little girl, and the military personnel tried to save them with their own skin, but they were too late, and the bullet hit them . The mother cried, and extended both her arms, and the bullet was moving at them in slow motion. And then, when it hit her, it got deflected by a blue glow. And any other bullets. And everyone watched that. And the military personnel shot the leader, and got shot, but the bullets also bounced back. And in there, every terrorist who was in the wall tried to shoot people, but nothing was happening, the bultes were just bouncing off the blue lighting.

And seeing this, the lion roars, and raghav starts to fly, just a foot above the ground. And his costume starts to appear. And a bright blue light covers the whole area.

" I'm gonna say it once, kneel. " And the lion beside him also roard, giving his aprovel and warning.

And seeing no other option, the terrorist in fear, knelt. All around. And forces immediately subdued them . And then Raghav closed his eyes, and he sensed every single drop of soma he could find. And when he sensed it he told the old man.

" And the old man nodded. "

" My men are already there. They'll take care of the injured and soma, and where is that kaal? "

" He is outside, waiting for me. '' Said Raghav looking at the broken door.

And Lord Narashibha, turned. And looked at the huge temple and statue of Lord ram. And he clasped his hand in prayer, and bowed his head. And seeing this everyone clapped their hands. And Lord Narasimha turned, and directly toward the river, and got in, and gave a last roar, before submerging in water.

Raghav descended down. And punched down the rubble from the door. And every one outside, saw him. They saw a man in blue glowing like a star.

And others looked at him, and the military gathered around him..And they looked at him with admiration.

" Krish. " Said one man in the group. And raised his eyebrows . And then everyone starts enchanting someone else's name.

" What ? Why? " He said.

" Thank me kid. " Came an old voice.

" Guess the world didn't need to end after all." And he sighs.

" No way. " He said to himself.

" I know. " And then he looked at everyone.

He looked at the little child in the hand of his mother. He went to them, and the military didn't stop him.

And knelt down, and looked at the crying girl.

" Hay, sweeti, what's your name? "

And she replied, her. Name. .

" Do you know me? " Asked raghav.

" You are krrish. '' Was her reply. And he nodded half heartedly

" Can I take her, I believe his father is looking for her. " And the mother looked at him. And then at her daughter.

And the next thing he asked was.

" Do you like flying? "

And Raghav took her to his father in the temple. And he landed in front of him, and gave her daughter to him. And many camera flashed can be heard. . And he said something. People were gonna ask questions. But he stopped them, and continued.

" My brother's and sister's. " And everybody calmed down.

" I know, how are you feeling? Fear, pain and death of a lost one. But remember, don't let you anger and hate consume yourself. Don't judge people because of what people's doing. We are Indians, no! We are Bharat. Bharat where all kinds of people leave, unity in diversity . That's what we believe right. So is our unity that week, that we are gonna be trembled by some warmonger terrorist, who has nothing to do with our land, our Bharat. You can not change people's view, and I know there will be riots, people will blame them, people will hate them, but remember, are we like this. '' And they paused.

" I'm not a public speaker, or that much of a public person, I'm incompatible.".

" You are bad mouthing him. "

" but I know that people will value my words, I want you don't treat them differently. And not like they are not doing that with there people, there are some muslim as well, aren't they. " And he heard a yelled that he is correct.

" See, they aren't muslim who attacked us, they where terrorist. Nothing more nothing less. The day took weapons in the name of God, they aren't from any religion. Me prime minister, do you hate all the Muslims, because some terrorist killed them ." He asked the prim minister, who just came in. And his reply was what he expected.

" Kill me if you can for what I said , but I'll state what I believe, and there is one more person who needs to be reminded of his place. " And he looked at the person standing out the door. And he has a small smile on his face.

Raghav looked at him, and Mrityu turned back, and started to walk away.

And raghav followed him, some time later.

They were near the river, saryu. And Mrityu was standing near the river, looking at it.

" You know, I was a human once. " And raghav took a pause, and he sat on a rock nearby.

" I didn't know that? " Said raghav.

" No one knows. Not even my brother's and sister's. I was a farmer in Iraq. I had a family, a son, a daughter, another son, and a lovely wife, and my father. They all died in hunger. And then I died, after watching all of them die. I drugged six graves, knowing I'm going next. So I just dug my own. And when I was digging on my own, I felt presence. Then, I got an offer. And after that, I became what you know. My purpose became dead. I messed with people, used my brother's sister's to my gain, I provided deaths and hid my presence to maharakshak and kept fighting them. You know, I was good at hiding, but you were different. You sense my presence in every incident you see. But no, I didn't have my main hand in it, I just provoked their thoughts, and rest was easy. They do whatever they want. " And raghav didn't say anything, and looked at him.

" I see . "said raghav.

" So! You were like meeting Hitler , knowing Napoleon, and seeing Gandhi and other stuff. "

" Ha ha. You are a funny guy. "said raghav.

" Am I. " And Raghav stands up.

" You might have a reason, or a job. But remember, wrong is wrong. You need to put an end to it. " And he chuckled.

" Really. You're gonna have a hard time. " Said Mrityu.

" So this is how it's gonna be. "said Raghav, and he replied yes.

" Since you are a newbie, I'll give you a free shot. '' Said Mrityu, and showed his face.

And raghav smirked.

" Really. "said raghav.

And raghav moved fast, and hit him. And he flies off in the river, and he hits the water, and Raghav stands on the water, and Mrityu was in the water, standing, as well.

" Nice. "said the man.

" Let's just kill each other. "

And they both meet in the middle, and raghav blocked a punch on a face, and then blocked a knee, then tries to punch him, and he blocks, then he head but him, and raghav got little back. And then Mrityu summoned some chaya-ratri. And they attacked him, and he once punched and kicked them. They dispurced, and then felt something grabbing both of his hands, and it was a chain, made out of some black substance. He tried to fly away, but they were good and strong. Seeing another group of chayaratri coming, Raghav used varahas power, and broke it, and punched a solid hit on water, making a wave, crushing the chayaratries. Then with the same power, he created a mash, and grabbed it with both hands, and then put it on his shoulder, and looked at the person in front of him. He went for the head, and Mrityu dodged, then raghav swipes, then down, splashing water. Them kicked him toward the ground, and then speed pas him, and hit the stone where he landed, and broke it, then Mrityu grabbed his hand, and it's starts to glow black, and raghav curses, and then tries to punch him, but he grabbed his other arm, and did the same. And raghav starts to lose footing.

" You can't win against me.. " Said Mrityu with a smile.

And then ragha used his kurama ability again, and freed himself, then with a solid enhanced kick sailed him back to the water . And Raghav went after him. And starts to fight him underwater. And Mrityu seeing him come at him, makes a different chaya-ratri. It was huge and had two enormes hands, a small mouth, and black and red skin. He was surprisingly very fast and agili, he went directly for him, and when raghav punched him, it just bounced back. Like he hits jelly. Then the creturre grabbed him between his hands, and tried to crush him. Raghav stopped him with his hands, and then used varahas power again and crushed him. Then he went for Mrityu, and he tooks out his book, and tores an page, and now Raghav and he was on top of a plane, and it was falling down. Raghav stumbela back, and drugged his hand on the plane and stopped him. He looked around and couldn't find him. From nowhere a punch hits him, and hits the back tail of the plane, and breaks it . And it starts to go down in a rapid motion, he hidden his senses and use matsya avatar's power, and punched in solid air, and hit something, and then with his senses , he landed on air like a solid ground, and then starts punch and kick in all directions, and black smoke was coming from every single attempts. He was still there, but his surroundings had changed. He looked in a certain direction, and get on with his transformation poss, and hit it. And the surrounding ripples, and he saw the real world, and Mrityu. He summoned the mesh again, and fought with it, tearing the enemies apart . And then he went for the direction he saw Mrityu, and hit the mesh there, and it connected to someone. And all the surrounding changes , now it was that same river and shore, and his mesh was on the head of Mrityu, which now was bleeding in black, his open book still in hand.

" Gotch you. " And Mrityu looked at him, and then tore another page, and he saw himself in an old city, an old Japanese city. He looked around. And saw nothing special, he looked around, and saw a bunch of people going on their way, he didn't sence any presence on them, it was a little different. Because when a girl saw him, she pointed at him. And he looked at her awkwardly, and asked.

" Where am I? " And he didn't understand what she said, but her mom after seeing him took her away.

" Am I in America? " He said, looking around. And didn't see anything like that. And then I heard the sound of a loud siren. And he understood that siren immediately.

It was an old siren that indicated an air strike. He looked up, and saw three planes flying over the city. And everyone else sees that, he couldn't understand what's happening, till he saw an old man holding a newspaper. He didn't understand what was in it, but he saw the date of that plane, and it made his eyes widen . He was about to say something, but before he could do anything, he heard the sound, and some time later, the shockwave. And every house there got blown away. And Raghav stands there, not able to do anything. And then a white light filled the vision. And when he opened his eyes. He did not see the old city, he saw rubble and fire. Everything around him was destroyed, not even the houses remain. And he could feel the heat in the air. He looked around, and then took a flight. And see everything from up above, and what he saw, he knows how the world is gonna look in the end. He can still see the mushroom cloud in some distance. And then, all around him, black clouds start to appear from everywhere, and start to gather a little distance away from him. And took the form of a headless being, whose head was half gone, above the eyes, and that part was burning like hell. And then from nothingness, a huge sword with pointed edges, came to life in his hands. And he swings it around in a challenge motion. And down there, he saw Mrityu standing near a almost half burned shrine, and behind him was the door of the shrine. He looked at his braccers. And then at the huge monster. The huge monster now focused on him, and took his sword a little behind, and then swung it directly toward Raghav. And he didn't do anything to stop there, taking the hit. Or what it looks like. His tortoise symbol glowed.

The huge red sword clashed with him, and it broke in two . And after that, he said in a serious tone.

" Not impressed. '' And the creature roared at him. And Raghav looked at Mrityu on the ground. And his smiling face. But Raghav was not smiling any more. He looked at him with serious eyes.

Raghav flies directly toward the huge monster, and enters his mouth. And came out from another end, and then monster started to fall, and raghat went directly toward Mrityu, and Mrityu seeing him, raised his hand, and there puche collided. And Mrityu starts to suck the death out of every dead person there. And he starts to grow in size. The book appeared beside him, and it started to tore its pages, one by one. And the surroundings everywhere kept on changing, and he kept on sucking every death from those pages. And he starts to push Raghav back. His black robbs were flying like a rag in a storm, and in every change of incident, his size and muscle kept on increasing. And he was pushing him quite a bit now, and Raghav's arm was now starting to go black, and he started to feel the toll. He tried his best, but the power was not enough. He used varahas power, but it was not enough, he used every once in a belief, but it was not enough . And Mrityu's powers were overwhelming him. He closed his eyes.

" Maa. " He called his mother. And a gentle voice told him.

" I'm always with you, and close your eyes whenever you want to see me. And you'll see me. "

And after that, he opened his eyes, a single tear falling from it. A determined look came to his face, and he took a side step. And let Mrityu's punch slide, and then with another arm, he punched him directly on the jaw. And reality shattered, like glass. And Mrityu launched into the
