As car was moving towards the city of Samala, Frey fell asleep. After about 15 minutes, his phone rang. It was Karin. Frey woke up and canceled the call. He didn't want to talk to Karin, maybe it was because of her that Frey didn't go back to apartment to have some rest, and pushed himself to his first mission without any delay. His phone rang again, he let it ring to its end. "Hey Frey, I know you don't want to talk to me but thanks for the money. I wanted money because I still had hope for my sister's recovery and Seger is no longer supporting me because of doctor's hopeless views about my sister's survival. When you said you could rob a bank, I just couldn't believe it, I thought you were trying to be cool, but you were really serious so I made a fake promise about abandoning an Elite's support after you give me money because I never believed it from the start. Sorry for that fake promise. That's all." Frey received a message from Karin. After reading it, Frey thought that Karin ha

    Frey kept on crying silently and sometimes making sound. His face became red because of continuous rubbing to dry up his tears. For about next 4 hours, Frey couldn't stop remembering his mother's face and crying over what he did to her, how he was used to make her worried, how she loved him after all the things he had done, but then he would also remember how his mother was used to beat up child workers with sticks and pipes, how she once starved her maid to death, how she threw hot cooking oil on her chef's hands for not cooking good food. In his these times of sorrow, Frey suddenly thought how his mother got cancer. She had no such symptoms for as much time as he had spent with her, and suddenly she got so much of the disease that cancer ultimately caused her death. He knew that cancer can be a silent killer, but this was just unbelievably so sudden. Frey's phone was continously ringing, he didn't know for how much time, "Hello Karin" said Frey in a sorrowfully low tone. "Frey I've

    In the village, Raymond pointed at some mud house, "You can live here" said Raymond. "Only me? Aren't we going to live together here?" asked Frey, smiling. Raymond had started thinking that there was something wrong with Frey's sexual orientation. First he wanted Raymond to accompany him, and now asking him to live together with him, in that mud house having only one large room. "Sorry bro, I have other things to do.. Boss asked me to hide you somewhere in this village, I have done that" said Raymond, while turning his face. "Wait, I asked you to help me with finding herbs, didn't I?" asked Frey with wrinkles in his forehead. "You can do that of your own, besides I have no knowledge of herbs" said Raymond while waving his hand as to say Goodbye. "Wait Raymond, there's something only you can do for me.. I mean I can't do that because of my young age" said Frey, sarcastically smiling. "Now you're being a little straight forward, I knew there was something wrong with your sexual orientat

How are you?" said Raymond while standing up from sofa. "Didn't I ask you to come at 7 PM evening?" asked Harisha with frowns. Actually, Frey thought that Raymond should go earlier than given time so that his shyness would be adjusted till then. Raymond also wanted to do it as soon as possible, because life in the village was too difficult for all of them. "Yeah you did.. But I thought my shyness would need some extra time to get adjusted so that we would be able to have good time starting from 7 PM" said Raymond as he just remembered that Frey advised him to be real.

    "Open your truck's rear" said one of the Soldiers. Frey felt like he had seen this face before, but he couldn't remember where, until he saw the badge written "Janes" on his chest pocket along with his name. As Frey was about to repeat the same code words to this soldier as well, a soldier received a call from Jason, "Let the truck pass and don't tell anyone that I ordered you, just tell them that driver spoke the code words of the disposal worker" said he to a soldier, after which the soldier let them pass without any suspicion. Frey kept on thinking about why the soldier let them pass after receiving a phone call, and who it really was. He drove the truck as fast as could, till they reached into a road where Santa city had ended and some plains and forests then began. After about 30 minutes, another soldier standing on the checkpoint along with that Janes' soldier received a call from Wiltons family owner named George Wiltons, that their other soldiers investigating in the Central p

    The shrieks of Harisha from another room woke up Frey. As he walked into the room, he saw Harisha was shriekingly swearing Raymond while Raymond was trying to calm her by taking all her cursing remarks into a joke. "Hey Frey, you got up, look, she looks beautiful even in anger, doesn't she?" said Raymond, grinning. On looking at Frey, Harisha now realized that Raymond was working for him. She started screaming for help, literally now. All she could see in Frey's eyes was blood and horror. Ironically, she was asking for help from the same person she was swearing just now, "Raymond! Help me! Save me! Please! He's a devil! He's a real devil! Look into his eyes!" shouted Harisha, with uncontrollable loud and harsh cries. Frey put out an injection from his pocket, showed it to her, upon which her screams paused but sobbing was still there, "This is my drug, I've named it 149, because there were 149 children and adolescents in your basement being used as test subjects, I will give you 37 do

  • The Devil's Claw   The Rise of Equalists

    As Frey lyed on his sheet to sleep, he kept thinking about why Elites were using the blood of that special human to make a drug to kill people, including both Elites and the low class people. Why they were so much thirsty about each other's blood that they wanted to kill each other by every way possible. Maybe, it is just humans' nature that no matter how much they're given, they always want more. He felt like he was being hypersensitive about matters that have actually been the traditions for centuries and no one ever objected to them. That night, he really felt like he wouldn't be able to kill Harisha even after her 70 days trial would be over , not because he had developed some feelings for her, but he had found a little element of kindness, that was still surviving hardly in some corner of his existence. After all, he wasn't a bad person. When he looked at Raymond who was sleeping deeply, he remembered how Raymond had been helping Harisha through all her sufferings and how he just

    First, Raymond's death was something of a incomprehensible mystery, as he was wearing a bullet proof suit similar to Keith's to protect him from being shot to death. Secondly, this hardened material that protected Keith and Karin was never seen before. What was it.. Why did it protect them... Keith felt like Halaya was somewhere around, looking at him and it was some sort of her magical power's interference. But no, she couldn't be seen around. "What's this?!" asked Karin in shockingly worried tone as she found themselves surrounded by some green crystal like hardened material making a circle all around them. Seeing this green crystal making a sheild around them to protect them, Arthur ordered everyone around to retreat. In no time, all helicopters circling above their heads went back to Mansion from where they came. Keith felt like Arthur knew something about it, and he wanted to hide it from the world, so he retreated in such a hurry. But what had broken Keith's existence into piece

Micheal Janes was being questioned repeatedly on the media about what was the matter with his son. Despite Micheal's repeated scolding to Keith about his avenging, he stayed stubborn. Before Micheal would say anything as an answer to all those raising questions on media, Keith himself held a press conference to explain his current situation to public.

    The next morning, there was a knock at Keith's room on early morning. "Yes.." mumbled Keith in a sleepy tone, as he was still sleeping. Rim entered the room... "Sir.. What have you become?" asked he, in a sadly rough tone, as he shook Keith's shoulder to make him awake properly. Keith looked at Rim, now with widely opened eyes.. Tears filled into his eyes.. sat up hardly, rubbed his eyes.. "Why are you here... Rim?" asked Keith in a firmly sad tone, avoiding looking at Rim's face. "Sir.. You're not this.. Wake up and show the truth to the world.." cried out Rim, now bursting out of emotions. "Rim.. Who will believe in me now?" asked Keith in a helplessly sad tone, while moving his head sideways. "Everyone will do.. Just don't give up.. Just don't stop avenging!" screamed Rim, his voice shaken and broken as tears were flowing through his eyes. Keith looked at him.. He felt good that Rim still believed in him after every worst thing that had happened... "Rim.. You're a good friend" said

    As Halaya woke up, she saw some black fatty nurse of about 35 plus years, putting some medicines on the tray. "Where's Carver?!" asked Halaya, in loudly worried tone, as she hardly managed to sat up, with her back rested on the back of Hospital bed. "Don't panic! he's alright.. You rather need to be worried about yourself Miss" said that nurse, in a slightly rough tone. "What do you mean? What happened to me?" asked Halaya, in confused tone, as she tried to remember what exactly happened. "You got fainted! Don't you remember?" asked that nurse, in rude tone. "Yeah I remember.. I hadn't eaten anything since I came here.. So I got fainted.." said Halaya, as she turned her face aside. "Wow! Great! You do finally remember everything now! then how don't you remember something more? You're pregnant Miss!" said that nurse, in a taunting tone, while moving her big hands around in a bluntly angry manner. "What?! No! Not now!" said Halaya as she helplessly faced palm. "Yeah!

    [Caution : Violence]In the midnight, as Halaya came to see Carver lying on the hospital bed, his hand dripped, and his forehead having placed sponge to reduce his fever, she patted his head, kissed his side of forehead.. She knew that she was the only one for Carver and that he had no one else.. Though Arthur was his father, but after Najers found out that Carver had no special powers transferred to him from his mother, his behavior had changed towards him. Carver was then treated mainly as a trash, the child born for no reason at all. Though Arthur was used to physically abuse Halaya, but it wasn't the case with Carver. To him, Arthur never ever slapped or did any type of physical abuse, but mental abuse was common. Carver was mostly told that he was born just as a result of experiment, and that he wasn't loved at all. He was also told that his mother left him because she didn't love him enough. However, despite such continuous brainwashing, Carver never really hated his mother, inst

    Next morning, during the breakfast, while all the Janes were sitting in the main family hall, along with watching news, in which it was being shown how Machia family and Najer family had combined their forces against Janes family. "The plot played by Janes is extremely selfish. We also had access over Halaya, but we kept her as everyone's property" said the Thrish Najer, the owner of Najer family. "Keith is a Janes' masterpiece. Though he has gained access over Halaya, through his useful mental tactics, but he is neither the husband of her, nor the guardian of her. She either belongs to us or the Najers" said King Yumas Machia during his speech. "Keith was himself always a super power, having Halaya by his side, is something that has now made him invincible. If all the major Elite families wouldn't still combine their forces against him, we can never overcome him" said Dashi Rogera, the owner of Rogera family, one of the major Elite families. Thus, all the minor families that once app

    That night, at about 2AM, Halaya got a call from the same unsaved number she got a call before. She knew it was Arthur.. He was trying to contact her again for some reason.. She knew that it was emotionally overburdened for her to talk to him.. But maybe he had to talk about Carver.. Why would he need to talk about him.. She kept on thinking.. Questioning and then answering to her own assumptions.. There was a knocking at her door.. Was it Arthur.. She immediately sat up in extreme fear.. Knocking got harder.. She shakingly asked, "Who?" in loud tone. "Open the door, Halaya" said Keith, in gently calm tone. She felt a relief.. It was Keith after all.. As she opened the door, Keith was standing there, with holding a knife in his hand.. "You.. at this time" said Halaya, in firmly serious tone.. There was a gap of silence.. Keith entered the room and locked the door.. "I need your fresh blood" said he, as he showed her that knife. "Why's that?" asked she, in curiously firm tone. "Because

"Yes?" said Micheal in slightly loud tone. "Sir, there are some low class people gathered outside our main gate.. They said they want to meet Prince Keith.." said a worker, who then left from there after Jason gestured him to leave. Keith stood up, "Let me see" said he, as he left from there. After Keith reached there, people started clapping and hooting like they had seen some famous celebrity standing in front of them, "Keith! Our hero!" they repeatedly raised slogans to make him feel motivated. "Who are you people?" asked Keith, as he felt like he had never seen those faces before. One of them came forth, "Keith, we want you to resume avenging.. Look, we've proofs of brutality done by Elites to our relatives" said he, as he opened his mobile screen.

    "Keith! You've done great job!" said his Dad in a loud tone, as he was brought there by Raymond in a Helicopter, which then landed there. Herlin and Rebecca ran towards Keith and hugged him tightly, "Keith rocks!" said they repeatedly, in cheerful tone. "Brother Keith, you've proved it that it is now Janes' reign!" said Safrali, in excitedly happy tone. Rasmali happily nodded. Jason punched Keith's back, "I can't believe that you stole those books all of your own!" said he, in gladly smiling tone. After the Halaya had used her powers, she fell unconscious, as before. Her body temperature was high, like she was having a fever. She was taken to the hospital, antipyretics were given to her to bring down her temperature.
