The Bttle Is On......

As the box started opening with the sound, Charu got excited and curious too. She was just waiting for it to open and suddenly she saw some shadows and her sharpness of mind reminded her about the warning of Yuvaan. She took away the key from the box and let it be closed again. She had hidden the key safely under her skirt. She slowly moved to the corner behind the wall and stood there. That was full of darkness and she could feel the mosquito bites there. But she was helpless and he was hiding there to know who are these people and what they really want to do there. The text of Yuvaan again reminded her. She could remember him mention EVIL, now she was bit scared and at the same time wondering to get in to some uncertainties . There were so many questions in her mind searching for the answers. Vincent uncle suddenly left for Egypt and never let her know about his plan. Martha‘s activities and her point of view are always full of confusion. Most importantly missing the sword from the museum and all these had happened very suspiciously. She wanted to bring all the things in order, but every day something new is happening. She had Yuvaan with her to help and try to solve some important issues, but he passed away. But Yuvaan had done his duty till the end of his life. He had kept his promises made to her. He never bothered for his life and tried to make her aware of certain things. Then she asked herself,’’ how come Yuvaan was aware of all these? How he could know about the EVIL? Why and how was he had this key? How was he been killed? Was it an accident or a murder?’’

Now she could see from behind the wall the better images of shadows. She could see they were four shadows. She thought, ’why they were following her? Are they been connected with the death of Yuvaan? ‘’ At the same time, the stinking smell was unbearable for her there. She was feeling like to lose her sense. But she controlled her mind and concentrated on the shadows. As the images were becoming bigger and bigger she could feel her heart bit was increasing. She was looking around herself and searching if any way to leave this place if anything worst will happen to her. But she was unable to find it anyway. Again her sharp brain and presence of mind helped her. She took her mobile and kept it on silent mode because any incoming call will let those people know about her hiding there. She just sends a message to her father from her mobile that she is expecting any trouble and give her location. Then she heard the sound of the footsteps. For a while, she closed her eyes and felt a bit helpless. But her inner strength kept her active. She decided to know who all these people are? She was preparing herself to fight the battle. She will not let them destroy her family and her and win. ……..

As soon as Charu’s father saw the message of Charu got tensed. Actually, he could see the message after 15 minutes of its delivery as he was a bit busy with his work. Now he asked the maid about the time Charu leaving the house. Even he enquired was she had gone alone or somebody was with her. He could then know that she had gone alone. Immediately he called his plumber friend and asked him to come. Then he called two of his staff and asked them to come immediately to his place. By this time he took his revolver and kept it in his pocket. He was thinking about his daughter and praying to God to help her. He was getting annoyed with her for such type of doing. He was saying to himself,’’ why she had gone alone? Why she had not asked her? Why she is not understanding the situation? He was very much upset and full of anxiety. He too was thinking who they all are? Why they are following his daughter? What was their motive? He was trying to guess and trace the possibilities of any danger.’’ At the same time, his plumber friend had come. He told him that Charu is in trouble he needs his help. Then his plumber friend called two of his assistants and told them to come with all sharpener to dig the floor. They reached with all within five minutes. Then all of them were about to leave and two assistants of Charu’s father came. Briefly, they were told to save and protect Charu. They took some metallic rods from the floor and all of them then left for the place as mentioned by Charu. They parked their vehicles before some yards of the Moll. They decided to go into three groups separately so that even anybody keeping an eye here will not know about their motives. Charu’s father covered his face with a handkerchief and was walking with his plumber friend. His two assistants were just following them from a distance. The assistants of the plumber were just behind them. While moving towards the Moll all of them were just moved their eyes to know if anyone is there to see them. They were talking to each other and trying to act as if the customers. Then Charu’s father texted a message to Charu,’’ I am coming with others dear. Be strong and have patience. Don’t do anything till we reach there.’’

Now Charu opened her mobile and read the message sent by her father. Now the fear from her mind had escaped. She becomes stronger and was mentally ready to face any situation. She was just waiting for the arrival of her father and his people. Now she could see all the four men with masks on their faces had reached there. They were talking to each other and were looking here and there. Charu could hear some of their conversations. The tallest person was telling, ’where had she gone? Are you sure they had seen her coming here? What for she had come here then? She is acting very smart. She has to be taught a lesson. She must realize what are the powers of mine.’’ Then Charu was recalling the voice. She had heard this voice. She was trying to recall whose voice this could be? Then she heard the other man was saying,’’ sir, she is very intelligent and she was trying to dig and get the buried thing out. Also, she is very much unpredictable. She could be able to know about something about this definitely. We have to send the message to the Boss.’’ Now Charu could understand that these people have a Boss and all they are doing as per his instructions and they want to attack her, maybe they can kill her. Then Charu heard the third person saying.’’ Yes, we must inform the Boss. We should find out who were the persons giving her all information? We have to shut them up. She is intelligent, smart, and can be dangerous for us.’’ Now Charu thought,’’ who these people are? Were they had any hand in Yuvaan’s death? ‘’ Charu was trying to trace the known voice….Then she heard the fourth one saying to others,’’ It’s ok, but now let us find her out. She must be somewhere around this place. I was been informed rightly. She had come here. But not sure whether came alone or not. Let us search for her. ‘’ Then Charu came to understand now that some were keeping an eye on her. Yuvaan was right. The EVIL….. who was it? But she will now be very careful. She kept the key very safely. She kept her mobile in her pocket. She was getting herself ready to fight back if attacked. Still, her mind was searching for the name of the known voice she heard. Now she could see that they started moving here and there. They started going to each corner. Charu was hiding behind the wall. She could feel that they will definitely find her out. She was thinking of her father and his people. Her eyes were searching for them and their help. Now she heard the footsteps are getting closer to her. Now she could not see anybody. Only she could hear their footsteps and it’s getting close to the wall. She looked upward and heard the tall man said to others,’’ she is here. All of you come here. ‘’ Then the tall man laughed and saying to Charu,’’ We got you here. There is no way to escape. You shouldn’t have done this. How dare you can try to know the hidden things. We kept it all hidden and you tried to spoil our work and plans. That’s not good. You have to be punished for this .’’

By that time all of them were very close to her. Charu stood up and told them,’’ who the hail you all are? Why are you doing this? Don’t think that you all will be escaped. You will be caught and your game will be over. You people had started the fight and tried to destroy my family. But you can’t do that. Now the Battle Is On……’’ Then Charu felt something very hard that hit her head very badly. She could feel the flow of blood from her head. She was feeling like going unconscious. And at that moment could hear her father saying,’’ I am here. Don’t worry my dear.’’

Then Charu could see all these four persons looked back and her father with a revolver in his had come towards them with other five people with something in their hands. She could hear her father saying to them,’’ you rotten fellows. You wanted to finish her. How dare you thought to attack her? You all will pay for this. ‘’ Then Charu could see with her cloudy eyes that her father’s people started attacking these four people and there was a fight broke out there. She could see hazily one of those four persons got unmasked in the fight…. And he was Ruth……. Martha’s son Ruth…….. She was surprised and before she could speak anything she felt on the ground and could see her father rushing towards her and she was getting senseless….She murmured, catch them all Papa….and she fainted there.
