To Mr. Brijesh, they did not harm him. The men in the room only frightened him, and made sure he did not tell the chief minister otherwise.

Arjun was in his office, watching and listening to the minister's voice recording.

"Good job, Mr. Brijesh," he said, calling on to one of his men.

"Release all three of them," Arjun instructed.

They did as they were asked, and released the ministers.

The citizens of Castle City had already seen them as evil people, and they would not hesitate to throw insults at them. They were gradually going bankrupt. They had no assets of their own, since all the assets they had acquired was from the money given to them by the government.

They all went into hiding to avoid being seen by anyone.

"I hate him!" Mr. Amit said, his voice resounding with bitterness.

The other two minsters turned to him, he could see the inquisitive look they gave him, so he proceeded to vent his frustration.

"Look at me. I have no money, I have nothing at all, anymore. I can't even

    Just a few phone calls, and everything was set. Arjun had come fully prepared to make all of them pay for every single thing they did.It was not yet time to reveal himself. The citizens of Castle City thought that karma was just paying the ministers a visit, as they all thought that Arjun was dead.Arjun maintained a low profile. He did not want them to know that he was alive yet. Should the ministers try to tell the citizens of Castle City that he was alive, they would definitely find it hard to believe.Few days had passed, and the three ministers were still hiding. They could barely go out. The chief minister, on the other hand, was dealing with the robotic device, Nexumcore.Nexumcore was really giving the chief minister a hard time. His plan to travel out of the country was totally in vain.There was nothing he could do. Whenever he tried to make a phone call or book for a flight or order anything, Nexumcore was always there with him everytime to make things difficult for him.

    The lady paused for a while. She was surprised. It was not too long that the news was broadcasted, than she received this call from an unknown person.How did the person find their locations so easily? Or maybe it was just one of them. She decided to ask to confirm if he had the location of all three of the ministers."Are you sure you have their locations?" She asked."Yes, I am sure.""All three of them?" She asked again, to make sure that he was certain before she made another broadcast."Yes, all three of them." Arjun knew that she was still doubting him, but he did not care.It was them who needed their locations. If he wanted to do anything with them, he would have done it since."Okay. Could you, please forward their locations to me now?" She politely requested."Sure, I will do that just now." Arjun said, and hung up.He was still not ready to come to limelight. He wanted the ministers to pay for what they had done to the citizens before he would reveal himself.He decided to

    As much as many of them wanted to take their revenge on the ministers, some peaceful citizens were not in support of the act.They felt like the government should take actions, and the citizens should let the government do what they deem right to do to these ministers.Funnily enough, most of them were victims of what the ministers had done. Some of them had lost their family members, some were unlawfully arrested, and some hardly ate because of the poor food produce."What? We should let the government take actions? We all know that the government would do nothing else, other than to arrest these ministers. Do you think these ministers are fools? They will definitely find a way to escape, and when they do, they will come at us. Do you know the plans they will have in mind against us?" One of the angry citizens voiced out."You," another one pointed at the peaceful citizen, "you lost your wife because of the minister of Health, Mr. Brijesh. The government were not affected by the acti

    The minister of Finance was done packing his bags. He opened the door, and looked around, but did not see anyone. He came out of the house slowly, trying to sneak away.Just as he had successfully stepped out of the house, he heard voices from behind."Mr. Amit, minister of Finance of Castle City."He paused in his tracks. How did they find him? Was the news really true? He gulped instantly, as he slowly turned around, hoping that it was a dream, but unfortunately, it was not.Turning around to look at the citizens, he could anger on their faces. They were not smiling at all.They were about five of them standing, but they did not look armed. They were not with any weapon or anything of that sort.Little did the chief minister know that some of the citizens that were armed were hiding in the bushes, waiting for the perfect time to strike.The person that had led them had told them to lay low first and observe what the minister of Finance would do. They would only come out upon his si

    The minister of Finance was afraid. He kept moving back and forth, trying to find a way to escape, but there was no way. "Wait! Great citizens of Castle City, listen to me." He tried to get their attention, but it was proving abortive."Wait!" He yelled again, and they all stopped moving closer to him.His heart was beating faster than usual. He felt like his end was near, but maybe before he died, he would try to fight his way out to survive and escape."I am the Minister of Finance, and I demand that I deserve a fair hearing in the court of law, and that the government should do to me what the constitution stipulates," he said, hoping that at least, one person would be in support of him."What nonsense are you spewing?""You don't deserve any fair hearing. You are a criminal. You deserve to die.""Mr. Amit, the government has given us the mandate to deal with you. The government has said that we should do to you whatever we want to, and that is what we are going to do. You threw a

    Mr. Amit was out of the picture now. Justice was finally served for the citizens that the Minister of Finance had hurt. It was time for mission two to be completed. Mr. Brijesh had no idea what was going on.He did not even know that Mr. Amit was dead. He was panicking. All that was on his mind was how he was going to escape. He did not want to get caught. He wanted to leave the country as soon as possible.When Mr. Amit had told them that they were wanted, and the government had given the citizens the power to do as they wished.He knew that it was not well. Everything was not well. The citizens of Castle City were not going to be lenient on them, as the government would have been.If it were the government that handled them, he would not have to panic so much. The only thing that he felt that the government would do to them was to send them to a few years imprisonment.He sure that they would not even need to spend that number of years imprisonment. Either Mr. Amit, Mr. Mahadev or

    The minister of Health was shocked. He thought he had already escaped. As he heard the lady's voice, his heart beat accelerated. He could even hear his own heartbeat.He froze, stopping in his tracks. What was he going to do? Should he run away? Should he enter the car and just zoom off? Was that even a good idea?He looked around, the man who had given him the key had already left. There was no way he could call him back, all he had to do was face it.The lady patiently waiting for him. She had already expected his next move. Little did he know that he was already surrounded by angry citizens.He rushed to enter into the car, since the door was already unlocked. Just as he was about to step in, someone came out of nowhere, and slammed the door close. He was shocked to his bone marrow. He could barely move, as he stood there, staring at the man's hand. Slowly, he lifted his head, and faced the man. The man's face knew no happy expression. He could feel the anger oozing out of the m

    He thought it was the end of him. He was not sure of what he would say to them to make them calm down. Mr. Brijesh never imagined himself this way. In fact, he never thought that there would be such consequences, something that would lead to his death.He was sure that the citizens would not leave him here alive, especially those whose family and loved ones died in the hospital due to inadequate facilities.If they had ever told him that a day would come when he would have to be on the mercies of the citizens; when he would have to go on his knees and beg for mercy from commoners.Only if he had escaped and ran away a long time ago, rather than follow Mr. Amit and Mr. Mahadev around, then all of these would not even be happening.He had come so far now, and in just a twinkle of an eye, everything he worked hard for, for years were getting ruined.All his plans were ruined, even before he knew it. Now, he was at the end point, where he didn't know if he would live or die in the next f

    Arjun saw the garden where Kavita was caring to her flowers from his study. The vista was bathed in a warm glow from the sun, and he felt calm almost automatically. Though their road had been long and difficult, they had negotiated it hand in hand. He had a gentle knock on the door. He said, turning to find who it was, "Come in."Entering the room was their son vivaan. He wore his father's will and the eyes of his mother. " dad, do you have a minute?"Always for you, lad. What then is on your mind?Raj settled down across from his father. "I have been considering the next major initiative for our foundation.

Papers and tablets abound on the table, each one loaded with ideas for their most recent projects. Though they had even more aspirations, the Global Youth Council was flourishing."Arjun became quite hopeful as they hung up the phone. "This is the way we produce actual change.

    Arjun and Kavita sipped in the living room of their estate over a stack of letters from individuals all around the world. These letters offered stories of how their work had changed countries, towns, even personal lives. Kavita picked up a letter written by a small Indian child. "Arjun, listen to this. Thanks to your foundation, I was able to pursue my passion of being an engineer and show up for class. I appreciate you believing in women just like me.'"Arjun grinned cosily. Kavita, that's lovely. These letters help us to remember the reason for our activities.Now a young guy driven by social justice and technology, Vivaan walked carrying a tablet. "Mom, Dad, you really have to see this.

    The large meeting room of the company hummed with a symphony of many dialects and languages as they prepare for the seminar. Arjun stood at the head of the polished table, a globe mapped on the screen behind him. "Welcome, everyone," he said, his voice exuding a warmth that cut across the niceties of the scene. "It is a privilege to welcome here today representatives from the African Union, the United Nations, and other NGOs. Castle City has shown great benefit from our AI-driven conflict resolution solutions; we are keen to expand their application.Rising from the African Union, a tall woman with vivid headwrap raised her hand.

    The lovely couple "Arjun and Kavita" were enjoying coffee at their kitchen table discussing their daily schedules as the early sun softly shone over Castle City. The aroma of freshly prepared coffee blending with bread and scrambled eggs created an ambient interior space."Vivaan has been so captivated with his most recent project," Kavita replied, flashing a smile. he reminds me of you, you were also like that.Arjun nodded and lay down his cup. "His degree of fervor is quite remarkable. It is making me think of an idea Kavita. That energy should be directed to produce something timeless. What about a mentoring program for young people intrigued in artificial intelligence ethics and technology?Kavita's eyes came alive. "That's a brilliant concept, Arjun! We may offer instruments and direction to help define the upcoming generations. Imagine the difference we could bring about.Arjun leaned back; ideas were already racing through his head.

    As the couple and the team kept dissecting the encrypted communication as their heads were racing with the urgency of the matter. The message suggested an urgent threat to their research and facilities, and they understood they had to act right now to preserve all they had so laboriously created.Arjun replied, fingers speeding across the keyboard as he accessed their security systems, "We need to act quickly." "Let's schedule a meeting including our IT team and top security experts."Kavita nodded and grabbed her phone to begin making calls.

    The day begin with Arjun sitting on his seat with his computer screen softly lighting his face. As he went over the most recent results from their artificial intelligence effort, the hum of the lab equipment provided a soothing background noise. With Vivaan in her arms and the toddler's eyes wide with inquiry, Kavita walked inside the room."Look who wanted to visit Papa," Kavita remarked, grinning as she laid Vivaan down.Arjun's face exploded. "Hey friend, What have you been doing today?Vivaan toddled over to Arjun and stretched for the vibrantly coloured screen diagrams. What's that, Papa?Arjun got his son on his lap. "We are working on a project here to benefit others. Do you wish to see?"With small hands clutching Arjun's arm, Vivaan nodded excitedly.

Every chamber promised fresh memories, exciting adventures, and a loving future.One evening, Kavita looked to Arjun with a reflective look when they were seated on their balcony seeing the sunset. "We have gone through a lot together, Arjun. The distance we have come from is astounding.Arjun grinned and cupped her hand in his. "It has been somewhat the trip. Now is also the moment to begin a fresh chapter. Kavita, what do you wish to undertake going forward?She slanted back, thinking about his query. "I want to concentrate on turning this house into a home. Let us begin by organising a housewarming celebration. We might invite colleagues, relatives, and acquaintances.

Seeking to build lifelong memories and experiences together, they had selected a variety of unusual sites, places neither had been before.Looking out the window, Kavita watched the clouds drift by. "this is amazing, Arjun. It still amazes me that simply the two of us are at last here.Arjun squeezed her hand and grinned warmly. "We have long awaited this. Now is our time to savour and discover.The Maldives was their first destination. Painted beaches and glistening clean waterways greeted them with open arms.
