Episode 57
Yule Moon is coming
Supernatural Territory – Vampire Kingdom
Solomon ke Qila ke Andar
Solomon ke qila ke andar ek azeem-o-shaan hall tha — itna wasi ke hazaron log ek sath kharay ho sakte thay bina kisi ghutan ke.
Is hall ke beech mein be-shumar insaan jama huay thay… sab kaanpte huay, dare huay.
Zyada tar insaan zakhmi nahi thay,
lekin un ke gird kharay vampires ki nazrein un ke liye kisi qatal se kam nahi thi.
Vampires ne insano ko beech mein rakh kar daaira bana liya tha.
Un ki aankhein laal thi, saans bhari hui,
aur un ke halaq se bhook aur junoon bhari growl nikal rahi thi.
Unhein insano ke jism ke andar behtay huay khoon ki har lehar mehsoos ho rahi thi.
Yeh un ke liye ek azeem azaab tha —
jaise bhooke shikari ke samne be-bas shikar ho…
lekin haath bandhay huay hon.
Gusse aur hawas ne unhein pagal kar diya tha.
Hall ke daayein darwaze se
Solomon aur Nezera andar aaye —
un ke par phailay huay, shahi aur khaufnaak.
Solomon ke siyah aur laal par roshni chhor rahe thay,
jaise khud andhera aur khoon un ke ghulam hon.
Jaise hi woh dono hall mein dakhil huay,
vampires ki growling foran khamosh ho gayi.
Sab peeche hat gaye,
rasta banaya gaya.
Solomon ne apni laal aankhon se dono taraf nazar daali.
Insanon ki tadaad dekh kar us ke chehre par halki si muskurahat aa gayi.
“Hmm… meri umeed se zyada hain.”
Nezera ne thandi aur nafrat bhari nazron se insano ko dekha.
“So yeh kaunsa ritual hai jis ka tum zikar kar rahe thay?”
us ne poocha, awaaz mein sakhti thi.
Us ke chehre se saaf zahir tha ke
woh insano ke sath ek hi kamray mein saans lena bhi gawara nahi karti.
Solomon hansa.
“Tum khud dekhogi.”
Solomon ne apne par zor se phailaye
aur hawa mein uth gaya.
Us ne vampires ki taraf dekha —
jin ke jism tanay huay thay,
jaise bas ijazat ka intezar ho.
“Mere logon… shuru karo.”
GROOOOWL!!
Agla lamha qiyamat tha.
Vampires insano par toot paray —
jaise murday par keere par jate hain.
“Aaaahhh!!”
“NAHI! KHUDA KE WASTE, YEH MERA BETA HAI!”
Cheekhon aur faryadon ne poora hall bhar diya.
Yeh qatal-e-aam tha.
Koi bhi insaan Awakened nahi tha.
Aur har vampire kam az kam Rank Five ka tha.
Insanon ke liye koi chance nahi tha.
Nezera ne bhonh charha di.
Us ne Solomon ki taraf dekh kar kaha,
“Yeh toh aam feeding jaisa hi lagta hai. Is mein ritual kya hai?”
Solomon phir hansa —
is dafa aur zyada sharaarti.
“Bas dekhte raho.”
Nezera ko hairani hui,
kyun ke Solomon kam hi aise muskurata tha.
Us ne tawajjo se dekha.
Aur phir…
usey farq nazar aaya.
Har vampire sirf aik martaba har insaan ko kaat raha tha.
Kisi ne bhi dobaara bite nahi kiya.
Jaise koi an-dekha qanoon unhein roak raha ho.
Kuch dair baad,
vampires peeche hat gaye
aur apni jagah par wapas aa gaye.
Un ke daanton se khoon tapak raha tha —
sirf aik chhota sa ghont liya gaya tha.
Yeh un ke liye bilkul na-kaafi tha,
lekin Solomon ki laal nazron ke samne
kisi ki himmat nahi thi.
Insano ki gardanon par do khooni nishan chamak rahe thay.
Dard kam tha…
lekin khauf had se zyada.
“Ritual shuru hota hai.”
Solomon ki aankhein gehri laal ho gayin.
Us ne apne bazu phaila diye.
Agla lamha…
insano ki gardanon se khoon hawa mein uthne laga.
Khoon ke qatre un ke sar ke upar jama ho gaye.
Insaan laachari mein apni gardan dhaknay lage.
Unhein dard nahi ho raha tha —
bas ek ghalat, gandi si feeling mehsoos ho rahi thi.
Solomon ne haath ghumaya.
Khoon ne mil kar
ek azeem surkh rune bana diya —
sainkron ajeeb o ghareeb nishanon se bhara hua.
Poora hall laal roshni mein doob gaya.
Nezera ki saans ruk gayi.
Yeh power…
usay kabhi mehsoos nahi hui thi.
“Ancient…”
us ke zehan mein sirf yehi lafz aaya.
Solomon ne aankhein band kar ke
ajeeb zaban mein chant shuru ki.
Yeh zaban Nezera ne kabhi nahi suni thi.
Yeh qadeem daur ki zaban thi —
jo Solomon ne Nolacula se hasil ki thi,
aur khud apni marzi se is ritual ke liye dhali thi.
Chant khatam hui.
Solomon ki aankhein khul gayin.
BOOOOM!!
Laal shockwaves us ki aankhon se phoot paray
aur seedha insano par ja lage.
“Khoon ke Aaghaz ke naam par…
tum sab meri nasal ke ghulam banoge!”
SWOOOSH!!
Insanon ke jism laal roshni se chamak uthay.
Rune se ancient energy barsi
jo unhein poori tarah gher chuki thi.
Vampires aur Nezera dono
saans lena bhool gaye.
Yeh energy…
bilkul un ke Origin jaisi thi.
Mukaddas.
Pur-sukoon.
Aur khaufnaak.
Kisi ko bolnay ki himmat nahi hui.
Insano ki aankhein laal ho gayin.
Phir…
cheekhain shuru ho gayin.
Jism chatakhne lage.
Haddiyan cheekhne lageen.
Daant lambi ho kar fangs banne lage.
Khoon un ke jism ke har suraakh se behnay laga.
“AAAARGHH!!”
Solomon aur Nezera khamoshi se dekhte rahe.
Un ke liye yeh manzar
khoobsurat tha.
Jaise raat mein
koi qeemti cheez aankhon ko chhed rahi ho.
Kuch dair baad…
cheekhain ruk gayin.
Transformation mukammal ho chuki thi.
Lekin har koi zinda nahi raha.
Teen-chauthai insaan
is azaab ko bardasht nahi kar paaye.
Sirf aik-chauthai bachay.
Jab woh kharay huay…
Toh Solomon aur Nezera ki aankhein
hairat se phail gayin.
Jo cheez un ke samne khari thi…
woh insaan nahi thay.
“Yeh… yeh main kya dekh rahi hoon?”
Nezera ne hairani se kaha.
Solomon ke chehre par ek shetani muskurahat aa gayi jab us ne apni aankhon ke saamne maujood makhlooq ko dekha.
“Kaamyaab ho gaya… kaamyaab ho gaya! Yeh waqai kaam kar gaya! Origin ne humein apni barkat de di hai!”
Hall ke andar maujood tamam zinda bach jane wale insaan poori tarah tabdeel ho chuke thay.
Ab woh insaan nahi rahe thay.
Unki jild laash ki tarah pheeki ho chuki thi, daant chaku ki tarah tez ho gaye thay, aur aankhein khoon jaisi surkh aur be-rahm chamak rahi thi.
Tamam bache hue insaan vampire ban chuke thay.
Unki nazrein idhar udhar bhatak rahi thin, jaise unhein apna guzra hua wajood yaad hi na ho.
Unki insaniyat, unki tabdeeli ke sath hi khatam ho chuki thi.
Sniff… Sniff…
Naye bane hue vampires ki tawajjoh zameen par bikhre hue khoon par ja tikki.
Jo khoon mare hue insano se baha tha, woh unhein apni taraf kheench raha tha.
Unhein ajeeb sa ehsaas ho raha tha… woh khoon jo pehle unhein ghinona lagta tha, ab lazeez nazar aa raha tha.
Unhon ne la-sha’oori taur par nigla.
Unke andar ek na qabil-e-bardasht pyaas paida ho chuki thi.
Tab Solomon ne bhaari aur dabao bhari awaaz mein kaha,
“Tum unka khoon pee sakte ho… jitna chaho, pee sakte ho.”
Phir us ne muskurate hue kaha,
“Khandaan mein khush aamdeed.”
.
.
.
.
Sikandar aur Adhara jaldi jaldi Amethyst Hotel se bahar niklay.
Dono seedha apni gaari ki taraf barhay aur bina waqt zaya kiye wahan se rawana ho gaye.
Gaari chalate hue Sikandar gehri soch mein gum tha jab ke Adhara bilkul khamosh thi.
“Shukar hai main unhein roknay mein kaamyab ho gaya… bas aik ghalat qadam, aur meri maut yaqeeni thi,”
Sikandar ne dil hi dil mein socha.
Atkins ki achanak zahoor ne usay bilkul be-khabar pakar liya tha.
Abhi tak usay samajh nahi aa raha tha ke Atkins itni aasani se unhein track kaise kar paaye.
Aur sab se ajeeb baat yeh thi ke unhon ne Karan ko dhoondhnay ki bhi koshish nahi ki — jab ke asal chori us ne ki thi.
“Tum kisay call kar rahe ho?”
Adhara ne poocha, jab us ne Sikandar ke chehre par pareshani dekhi.
Sikandar gaari tez chalata hua bola,
“Suraj ko. Humein apni saari kamzoriyon ko mehfooz karna hoga, warna woh phir hamla kar sakte hain.”
Phone kaafi dair tak ring hota raha… magar Suraj ne jawab nahi diya.
“Yeh kahan hai? Call kyun nahi utha raha?”
Sikandar ne socha.
Phir bhi usay zyada fikar nahi thi — woh Suraj ki salahiyat par bharosa karta tha.
Taqreeban aadha ghanta baad, Sikandar apne ghar pohanch gaya.
Woh aur Adhara ghar ke andar gaye aur dekha ke Karan pehle se wahan maujood tha.
Karan ne haath mein aik kagaz pakra hua tha.
“Yeh lo. Main ne us raat jo kuch yaad aa saka, sab likh diya hai.”
Sikandar ne kagaz liya aur ghor se parhna shuru kiya.
Achanak uski bhonhein sikar gayin.
“Teen taqatwar mojoodgiyan?”
Sikandar ke zehan mein khayal ubhra.
“Kya woh teen Awakened mujh se zyada taqatwar thay? Tum yaad kar sakte ho ke unki taqat meri muqablay mein kaisi thi?”
Sikandar ne poocha.
Karan kuch dair sochta raha, phir bola,
“Do ke baare mein nahi keh sakta… lekin un mein se aik yaqeenan tum se zyada taqatwar tha.”
Sikandar aur Adhara ne aik dosray ki taraf dekha.
“Agar spellbooks Platchi ke zariye deliver honi thin… to phir Atkins wahan kya kar rahe thay?”
Sikandar ne socha.
Achaanak dono ko aik hi waqt ehsaas hua.
“Spellbooks Atkins ke liye nahi thin!”
Dono aik sath bol uthe.
Agar spellbooks Atkins ke liye hotin, to unka wahan maujood hona be-maani hota.
Is ka matlab sirf aik hi tha…
Atkins bhi unhein churaane aaye thay.
Karan bas ghalat waqt par ghalat jagah pohanch gaya aur ghalat box utha liya —
isi liye jab unki Sikandar se mulaqat hui, to woh itne ghussay mein thay.
“Agar spellbooks Atkins ke liye nahi thin… to phir kis ke liye thin?”
Sikandar ne kaha.
Adhara bhi gehri soch mein gum ho gayi.
Ab sirf do mumkin naam bachay thay —
Granlor ya Reed Family.
Sikandar ka jhukao Reed Family ki taraf tha, kyun ke unka darja aur rawabit Atkins ke zyada qareeb thay.
Kuch dair sochnay ke baad, Sikandar ne achanak poocha,
“Tumhare Dad kahan hain?”
Adhara ne jawab diya,
“Yahan se kaafi door hain. Kam az kam 6 ghantay lag jayen ge.”
“Kal subah nikalte hain. Tayari karo,”
Sikandar ne faisla suna diya.
.
.
.
.
Isi waqt…
Suraj abhi tak Cluster Domain mein tha.
Woh jaan boojh kar rukha hua tha, taake bahar nikalna mehfooz ho.
Achanak woh neend se jaag gaya jab us ne mehsoos kiya ke koi uske upar baitha hua hai.
Us ne aankh kholi to dekha —
chhota sa Cyclops, Dyrmir, uske seene par baitha tha.
“Tum kya kar rahe ho?! Neeche utro!”
Suraj ghabra kar bola.
Magar Dyrmir hansne laga aur Suraj ke pait par koodnay laga, jaise yeh sab usay maze ka khel lag raha ho.
“Mister… tum laal kyun nahi ho?”
Dyrmir ne poocha.
Suraj ghussay mein use pakarnay hi wala tha ke achanak —
ZAP!
Dyrmir bijli ban kar gayab ho gaya aur aglay lamhay Suraj ke baen taraf zahir hua.
Uske haath mein Suraj ka phone tha.
Suraj uth kar uske peechay bhaaga, magar woh usay pakar hi nahi pa raha tha.
“Yeh kya bakwaas hai… aik Cyclops aur lightning affinity? Yeh mumkin hi nahi,”
Suraj ne jhunjhla kar socha.
Tab Ugrok ne aage barh kar Dyrmir ko pakar liya aur phone wapas Suraj ko de diya.
“Dyrmir bachcha hai,”
Ugrok ne sirf itna kaha.
Suraj ne phone pakarte hue poocha,
“Kya yeh normal hai? Kya Cyclops ke paas lightning affinity ho sakti hai?”
Ugrok ne sar hila kar kaha,
“Ugrok bhi hairan hai… yeh namumkin hona chahiye.”
Dono be-bas nazron se Dyrmir ko dekhne lage jo ab bhi thakay baghair idhar udhar bhaag raha tha.
“Mujhe laga tha insani bachay hi mushkil hotay hain… magar yeh to alag hi level ka hai,”
Suraj ne socha.
Phir us ne Ugrok ki taraf dekh kar kaha,
“Kya Sikandar ko iske baare mein pata hai? Hairani hai ke us ne abhi tak isay zanjeer nahi lagayi.”
Ugrok ne sar hila diya —
Sikandar ko abhi tak Dyrmir ke baare mein kuch bhi nahi pata tha.
Aakhri dafa jab Sikandar yahan aaya tha, Dyrmir so raha tha…
itna active nahi tha.
“Shayad mujhe Sikandar ko bata dena chahiye,”
Suraj ne dil hi dil mein socha.
_ _ _ _
Agley din,
Suraj Cluster Domain se wapas aa chuka tha aur seedha Sikandar ke ghar pohancha.
Us ne Sikandar ko bataya ke spellbooks bilkul mehfooz hain aur abhi bhi Cluster Domain ke andar hi hain.
Lekin…
ek masla tha.
Suraj ne bataya ke jab woh Cluster Domain mein dakhil honay hi wala tha, us par Platchi Family ke logon ne hamla kar diya tha.
Agar Ugrok waqt par na aata, to shayad baat bohot khatarnak ho jati.
Masla yeh tha ke
un mein se ek shakhs bhag nikalne mein kamyab ho gaya tha,
aur us ne Ugrok ko Emham Forest mein dekh liya tha.
Yeh sun kar Sikandar ne apni peshani dabai, gehri soch mein doob gaya.
Akhirkar us ne faisla kiya,
“Jab tak Ugrok khud bahar nahi aata, tab tak koi bara masla nahi hoga.”
Is waqt Sikandar ke paas pehle hi bohot zyada urgent matters thay.
Woh aur waqt zaya nahi kar sakta tha.
Us ne Suraj ko apna poora plan samjha diya.
UWO ke liye contingency plan
Sikandar aur Suraj ne mil kar UWO ke liye ek official form tayar kiya,
taake agar Atkins Family ne koi bhi ghalat harkat ki, to foran report ki ja sake.
Is form ki copies:
Sikandar
Suraj
Adhara
Karan
aur hatta ke Ryze ke paas bhi thi
Agar Atkins Family ne un mein se kisi ko bhi maar diya,
to jo bhi zinda bachta,
woh yeh form UWO tak zaroor pohanchata.
Original form Ryze ke paas tha.
Kisi ko nahi pata ke Sikandar ne Ryze ko Fireband Market se khareeda tha ya nahi,
lekin ab Ryze ka sab se bara kaam yahi tha
ke zaroorat parne par yeh form UWO tak pohanchaye.
Parents ko chhupana
Spellbooks secure karne aur UWO ka kaam complete karne ke baad,
Sikandar ne Suraj ko hukm diya ke:
“Apni maa aur uske shohar ko Cluster Domain le jao.”
Sikandar ki maa Suraj ko pehchanti thi,
is liye woh paranoid nahi hoti.
Sikandar ne dil hi dil mein socha:
“Umeed hai maa, Ugrok se mil kar panic nahi karegi…”
Cluster Domain ab tak ki sab se mehfooz jaga thi jo Sikandar ke paas thi.
Is jaga ke baare mein sirf:
Sikandar
Adhara
aur Rosie
ko hi ilm tha.
Yeh jaga Sikandar ko Dark Moon ke dauran ghalti se mili thi,
lekin ab yahi un sab ki hifazat ka zariya thi.
Chahe parents ko Ugrok jaise supernatural se mil kar dar lage,
unhein bachanay ka yahi aik tareeqa tha.
Adhara ka father
Sikandar aur Adhara ne faisla kiya ke
Adhara ke walid ko bhi foran utha kar Cluster Domain pohanchaya jaye.
Situation bohot tezi se escalate ho rahi thi.
Jo bhi un ke kareebi thay,
bargaining chip ban sakte thay.
Atkins Family bilkul bhi peeche nahi hatne wali thi.
Meeting se pehle hi woh pehla hamla karna chahti thi.
Sikandar aur Adhara dono jaantay thay
ke un ki sab se bari kamzori un ke parents hain.
Agar parents pakray gaye,
to un ki saari bargaining power khatam ho jati.
.
.
.
Ochyra University
Is waqt Sikandar aur Adhara Ochyra University mein thay.
Unhein Adhara ke father tak pohanchne ke liye train leni thi,
kyun ke yahi sab se tez zariya tha.
Lekin jaise hi woh train station ke qareeb pohanchay,
Sikandar ki nazar achanak ek brown trench coat pehnay hue aadmi par pari
jo principal ke sath baat kar raha tha.
Sikandar ne foran Adhara ko roka.
“Tum yahin ruko.”
Woh khud dheere dheere un ke qareeb gaya,
lekin 15 meter ka distance barqarar rakha.
Principal aur trench coat wala aadmi
ek kamray mein dakhil ho gaye,
jahan guards pehle se maujood thay.
Sikandar ruk gaya.
Tab hi us ne mehsoos kiya:
“Is aadmi ki khushboo… bohot jani pehchani lag rahi hai.”
Achaanak usay yaad aa gaya.
“Yeh wohi lakri jaisi woody scent hai…
bilkul Jane wali, jo kal raat Atkins ke sath thi!”
Sikandar ki enhanced smelling ability
15 meter door se bhi scent pakar sakti thi.
Ab usay yaqeen ho gaya tha:
yeh aadmi kisi na kisi tarah Atkins se juda hua hai.
“Kya yeh detective hai?
Ya Atkins ke liye kaam kar raha hai?”
Jab eavesdrop ka koi tareeqa na mila,
Sikandar wapas Adhara ke paas aaya.
Adhara ne foran poocha:
“Kya hua?”
Sikandar gehri soch mein tha.
Kuch dair baad us ne kaha:
“Adhara, tum apne Dad ko lene jao aur unhein Cluster Domain le jao.
Mujhe yahan ek kaam karna hai.”
Adhara ne us ka haath pakar liya.
Us ki aankhon mein zid thi.
“Tum kya karne walay ho?”
Sikandar ne usay ek khaali jagah par le ja kar sab kuch samjhaya.
“Agar yeh aadmi Jane se mila hai,
to iska matlab spellbooks shayad sirf Atkins ke liye nahi hain.
Mujhe pata karna hoga ke yeh sab kis ke liye hai.”
Adhara ne sar hila diya.
Knowledge is power,
aur woh yeh baat achi tarah jaanti thi.
Sikandar wahan baith kar intezar karta raha.
Do ghantay baad,
trench coat wala aadmi bahar nikla,
brown hat pehni aur principal ko alvida kaha.
Sikandar ne us ka peecha shuru kar diya.
Bus, phir doosra area,
aur aakhirkaar woh FAA office mein dakhil ho gaya.
“Yeh waqai detective ho sakta hai…”
Lekin jab Sikandar wapas murhnay laga,
us ne mehsoos kiya…
koi aur bhi usay follow kar raha hai.
Casual kapron mein aik aadmi,
har dukaan ke bahar ruk jata,
phone dekhne ka natak karta.
Sikandar samajh gaya.
Sikandar mall mein ghusa,
seedha movie theater.
Ek khaali studio.
Staff member ne roknay ki koshish ki,
lekin Alpha Intimidation ke sirf aik jhatkay se
woh dar ke mare behosh ho gayi.
Trench wala stalker andar aaya…
lekin studio khaali tha.
Achaanak—
ZOOM!!
Zameen achanak siyah ho gayi.
Puri studio ki floor par kaali bijli halki halki chamakne lagi, aur chand hi lamhon mein woh siyahi poori jagah ko nigal gayi.
Yeh dekh kar us aadmi ne bhonay chadha liye.
Woh chah raha tha ke chalang laga kar zameen ko chhoone se bach jaye, lekin dair ho chuki thi.
Achanak zameen se kaali bijli ke chaar chabuk nikal aaye.
Woh chabuk seedha us aadmi ko nishana bana kar us ka peecha karne lage.
Aadmi idhar-udhar chalang lagata raha, baen aur daen dodge karta raha.
Woh baen taraf se aane wale aik chabuk se bach gaya—
lekin aglay hi lamhay uski aankhon ke saamne namumkin hua.
Bijli ka chabuk mud gaya
aur seedha uske baen baazu par aa kar zapp kar gaya.
“Kkhh!”
Uske munh se dard bhari karah nikli.
Kaali bijli uske baazu se hoti hui uske poore jism mein phail gayi,
uska jism sunn par gaya, taqat khatam hoti mehsoos hui.
Woh bhaagne hi wala tha ke—
Sikandar achanak uske saamne aa khara hua.
Sikandar ke chehre par aik shaytani muskurahat thi.
Woh dheemi awaaz mein bola:
“Mystic Shock…”
DEG!
Jaisay hi alfaaz uske honton se niklay—
Aadmi ka dil zor se dhadka.
Uske jism ke andar maujood kaali bijli achanak phat padi,
uska poora jism paralyze ho gaya
aur woh ghutnon ke bal zameen par gir gaya.
Sikandar ne haath ghumaya.
Kaali bijli ke chaaron chabuk ne us aadmi ke haath aur paon pakar liye.
Har baar jab woh mana activate karne ki koshish karta,
bijli usay aur zyada jala deti.
Woh bilkul be-bas ho chuka tha.
Us haal mein dekh kar Sikandar ke honton par halki si muskurahat aa gayi.
Jo jadoo Sikandar ne zameen ko siyah karne ke liye istemal kiya tha,
woh uska naya spell tha:
Black Field Orko
Yeh spell aik aisa field banata hai jo us ke andar mana ke flow ko bigaar deta hai.
Kamzor mana control walay Awakened
is field ke andar spells istemal hi nahi kar sakte.
Iske saath Sikandar ne Lightning Salvo bhi use kiya tha—
Kaali bijli ke chabuk jo field ke andar
heat-seeking missile ki tarah target ka peecha karte hain.
Farq sirf yeh tha ke
Lightning Salvo sirf un logon ko nishana banata hai
jinhein Sikandar chahe.
Aur jab Mystic Shock ko is ke saath jor diya jaye—
Toh yeh poora area aik qatal-khaana ban jata hai.
Yahan tak ke
Rank-4 mid level Awakened
bhi is field mein asaani se gir jata hai.
Sikandar aahista aahista us aadmi ke paas gaya.
Woh abhi bhi sunn aur zameen par jakkra hua tha.
Sikandar uske saamne baith gaya
aur uske kapray phaad diye.
Uske seene par aik tattoo numaya hua—
Atkins Family ka crest.
Aik parinda,
haray rang ki aankhein,
aur poori taqat se phailay hue par.
Bilkul wahi nishan
jo Sikandar ne pichhli raat Jane ki spirit energy mein dekha tha.
Sikandar muskuraya.
“Dekho toh sahi…
Atkins Family ka aik stalker.”
Woh khara hua, thodi dair socha, phir cheekh ke bola:
“Lagta hai Atkins yeh samajh rahe hain ke main mazaaq kar raha hoon?
Mujhe follow karne ke liye aise log bhej rahe hain?”
Aadmi ne mushkil se sir uthaya.
“Mujhe chhor do…
tum Atkins Family ko nahi jaante.
Tum great Atkins Family se dushmani nahi mol le sakte.”
Uski awaaz mein fakhr tha.
Sikandar hans pada.
“Oh really?
Great Atkins Family ka aik stalker mujhe dhamka raha hai?
Main toh bohat darr gaya.”
Us aadmi ne gusse se daant pees liye.
Aksar log Atkins ka naam sunte hi jhuk jaate thay—
lekin Sikandar ke liye
yeh sirf aik mazaaq tha.
Sikandar ki muskurahat gayab ho gayi.
Uski aankhein thandi aur khatarnaak ho gayin.
“Apne boss ko yeh paighaam de dena,”
Sikandar ne sakhti se kaha,
“agar dobara mere peeche aise log bheje…
toh uske qeemti spellbooks kabhi wapas nahi milenge.”
“Main mazaaq nahi kar raha,”
uski awaaz aur bhi thandi ho gayi,
“warna pachtana parega.”
Aadmi khamosh ho gaya.
Sikandar ki aura itni bhari thi
ke woh samajh gaya—
Agar Sikandar chaahe
toh isi lamhay usay maar sakta hai.
Sikandar ne seedhi nazar uski aankhon mein daali.
“Main zyada sabr wala nahi hoon.”
Yeh keh kar Sikandar ne chabuk hata liye.
Aadmi ladkhadata hua utha
aur bhaagne hi wala tha ke—
Sikandar ki awaaz aayi:
“Ruko.”
“Oh haan…
tum aik misaal bano ge.”
“Stalker ki saza—
aik aankh.”
Sikandar ke chehre par shaytani muskurahat phail gayi.
Uska haath kaali bijli se bhar gaya
aur aik pal mein—
ZAP!
Bijli seedhi us aadmi ki baen aankh mein ghus gayi.
SPLURT!!
“AAARGHHH!”
Cheekh studio mein goonj uthi.
Sikandar ne uski baen aankh nooch kar bahar nikaali
aur zameen par phenk di.
Phir us aadmi ko zor se laat maari.
“Ab wapas jao,”
Sikandar ne sard lehje mein kaha,
“aur unhein batao—
main intezar kar raha hoon.”
_ _ _ _
Sikandar apne khoon se bharay haath saaf karta hua studio se bahar nikal aata hai.
Pehle jo stalker tha, woh ab jagah chhor chuka tha.
Sikandar ne Atkins Family ke liye ek misaal qaim kar di thi — uski baayi aankh le kar.
Chahe woh abhi student hi kyun na ho, use halkay mein lena ek bhool hoti.
Yahi baat Sikandar unhein yaad dilana chahta tha.
Khane ke baad, jab uska pait bhar chuka tha, woh mall se bahar nikla aur apne ghar ki taraf chal para taake Karan ka haal dekh sake.
Suraj aur Adhara bilkul wahi kar rahe thay jo usne unhein kaha tha, is liye uske liye ab koi kaam baqi nahi tha.
Usne khud apni family ko lene ka faisla nahi kiya, kyun ke usay darr tha ke koi uska peecha kar raha hai — aur baad mein yeh ehsaas bilkul sahi sabit hua.
“Kal detective ko dobara check karunga… usay mujhe kuch dena hi hoga,” Sikandar ne socha jab woh bus stop par khara tha.
Woh aasman ki taraf dekhta hai, aankhein thori si sikorti hui.
Suraj seedha uske sar par chamak raha tha, aur Sikandar mehsoos kar sakta tha ke dhoop ki garmi uski jild ke andar tak utar rahi hai ke achanak—
Uski nazar dhundhli ho jati hai.
Sikandar do teen martaba palkein jhapakta hai, lekin jab apne gird-o-nawaah ko dekhta hai, to sab log ghaib ho chuke hotay hain.
Bheed ka shor bhi khatam ho chuka hota hai.
“Hmm?” Sikandar hairani se apne aas paas dekhta hai.
Abhi chand seconds pehle yahan logon ka hujoom tha, lekin ab aisa lagta hai jaise hawa ne sab ko utha kar le gaya ho.
Woh baen aur daen dekhta hai, dil mein ajeeb sa khatra mehsoos karta hua.
Phir use ehsaas hota hai ke dhoop ki garmi bhi gayab ho chuki hai.
Uska mahol gehra neela ho jata hai, jaise suraj ki jagah kisi aur cheez ne le li ho.
Uske bilkul upar, aasman mein ek gehra neela gola tha.
Sikandar usay ghor se dekhta hai aur samajh jata hai ke yeh chand hai — lekin yeh aam chand jaisa nahi tha.
Achaanak—
Usne mehsoos kiya ke us neelay chand ki roshni uske jism ko chubhne lagi hai.
Yeh chubhan dheere dheere barhti chali gayi, itni ke jaise uski jild jal rahi ho.
“Yeh kya ho raha hai?” Sikandar ghabra kar sochta hai.
Woh dekhta hai ke uski jild raakh jaisi siyah hoti ja rahi hai, chand ki roshni ki wajah se.
Aahista aahista, uska jism raakh mein tabdeel hone lagta hai.
Sikandar ghabra jata hai aur us raakh ko pakarne ki koshish karta hai, lekin bekaar.
Woh sirf be-basi se dekhta rehta hai ke kaise uska jism ka hissa hissa raakh ban raha hai — aur phir achanak—
Uski aankh khul jati hai.
TIN!!
Samne se gaariyon ke horn bajte hain, jo Sikandar ko haqeeqat mein wapas le aate hain.
Uska mahol phir se normal ho chuka hota hai.
Sikandar apna haath chhorta hai jo side mein lagi metallic pole ko zorr se pakray hue tha.
Woh pole ko dekhta hai — woh uski pakar ki wajah se mur chuki hoti hai.
“Mom, kya yeh TV walay Awakened jaisa hai?”
Ek chhota larka apni maa se poochta hai, Sikandar ki taraf ishara karte hue.
Dono bus stop par baithe hotay hain ke uski maa foran uska munh dhak deti hai.
“Bas karo Michael, kisi ajnabi ki taraf ungli uthana badtameezi hoti hai,”
woh halki si daant kehti hai.
Sikandar peeche dekhta hai to maa sharmindagi ke sath muskurati hui nazar aati hai.
Woh phir apni nazar aagay karta hai aur apna Stats Tab kholta hai.

Apne stats dekhte hue,
Sikandar ko ehsaas hua ke agla full moon sirf aik haftay door hai.
Us ne is ke liye koi khaas tayyari nahi ki thi, kyun ke masail aik ke baad aik us par toot rahe thay.
“Meri Sanity bohot low hai… mujhe isay barhana hoga,” Sikandar ne khud se socha.
Full moon ke dauran Sanity stats calculate hotay hain, aur woh nahi chahta tha ke uski sanity itni kam rahe.
Kam az kam 70% ya us se zyada honi chahiye thi.
Sochte sochte, achanak use dhoop se bechaini mehsoos hui.
Us ne dekha ke bus qareeb aa chuki thi, lekin intezar karne ke bajaye woh daur kar bus ki taraf gaya aur zor se darwaza khatkhataya.
“Sabr karo jawan, main kahin bhaaga nahi ja raha,”
bus driver ne sar hilaate hue kaha.
Sikandar foran bus ke pichlay seat par ja kar baith gaya.
Jaise hi uska jism seedhi dhoop se door hua, use thora sukoon mehsoos hua.
“Kya jo ajeeb si dark blue moon main ne dekhi… wahi agla full moon hai?”
Sikandar ne dil mein socha.
⟨Yes, the user saw a glimpse of the Yule Moon’s power⟩
Yeh parh kar Sikandar ki bhonwen sikur gayeen.
“Ye full moon mujhe apni vision kyun dikha rahi hai?
Main ne kabhi kisi aur full moon ke sath aisa mehsoos nahi kiya…”
⟨It is not a vision, but rather a warning from the Yule Moon⟩
Sikandar aur bhi confuse ho gaya.
Usay sirf itna pata tha ke full moon aik werewolf ko zyada taqat deta hai.
Magar yeh sab… bilkul mukhtalif tha.
Woh bus ke pichlay hissay mein khamoshi se baitha raha, chehra sanjeeda tha.
“Kya iska matlab hai ke Yule Moon mere liye khatarnak hai?
Aur jo ajeeb si bechaini mujhe dhoop se mehsoos hoti hai…
kya woh isi se judi hui hai?”
Kuch dair sochne ke baad, Sikandar ne system shop khol li.
Us ne Yule Moon ke liye koi breathing technique dhoondhne ki koshish ki,
lekin hairani ki baat thi ke kuch bhi nahi mila.
Us ne keyword daala: “Yule Moon”
Shop ne sirf locked items dikhaaye —
jin ke liye woh requirements poori nahi karta tha.
Tab uski aankhein achanak khul gayeen.
“Agar Yule Moon ke liye koi breathing technique hi nahi hai…
to iska matlab hai ke yeh woh full moon nahi jahan werewolves apni taqat barhate hain.”
Usay apni pehli vision yaad aa gayi.
“Bilkul us vision ki tarah…
agar main is moon ki roshni ke seedhay samne aaya,
mera jism rakh ban sakta hai.”
Agar system keh raha tha ke woh vision aik warning thi,
to iska matlab tha ke Yule Moon khud usey warn kar rahi hai.
Aur shop mein breathing technique ka na hona…
uski theory ko confirm kar raha tha.
Sikandar ne suraj ki taraf dekha.
Uske zehan mein abhi tak woh dark blue moon chamak rahi thi.
“Kya mujhe koi underground jagah dhoondhni chahiye?”
us ne khud se poocha.
.
.
.
.
Meanwhile…
Suraj Sikandar ki Mom ke ghar pohanch chuka tha.
Ochyra University zyada door nahi thi, is liye woh jaldi wahan aa gaya.
Us ne kapray theek kiye aur darwazay par do teen dafa knock kiya.
Kuch hi lamhon baad, darwaza khula.
Samne aik middle-aged aadmi khara tha.
Grey slick-back baal, grey aankhein,
umar ke bawajood posture kaafi strong tha.
Baazu se aik tattoo jhalak raha tha.
Safed shirt, aur aankhon par black reading glasses.
“Tum kaun ho?”
us aadmi ne Suraj ko upar se neeche tak dekhte hue poocha.
Suraj ne polite muskurahat ke sath haath aagay barhaya.
“Sorry bother karne ke liye.
Mera naam Suraj hai, main Sikandar ka dost hoon.
Kya Mrs. Greene ghar par hain?”
Aadmi ne haath milaya.
“Main uska shohar hoon, Robert.
Woh abhi ghar par nahi, thori dair mein aa jayengi.”
Suraj kuch aur poochna chahta tha,
lekin Robert ne pehle hi andar aane ka ishara kar diya.
Suraj ne shistagi se andar qadam rakha.
Ghar andar se bohot cozy tha,
lekin sirf do logon ke liye kaafi zyada bara.
Naye furniture ki khushboo hawa mein ghuli hui thi.
Suraj ne socha:
“Lagta hai Sikandar ne in par kaafi paisa lagaya hai… sab kuch naya hai.”
“Please baitho,”
Robert ne sofa ki taraf ishara kiya.
Phir muskurate hue poocha:
“Coffee ya pani?
Meri biwi ne achi coffee li hai, recommend karta hoon.”
“Coffee hi theek hai,”
Suraj ne muskurate hue kaha.
Kuch hi dair mein, Robert do cups le kar aaya.
Suraj ne coffee ki khushboo mehsoos ki aur aik sip li.
“Kaisi hai? Zabardast hai na?”
Robert ne fakhar se poocha.
Suraj ne sar hila kar haan kaha.
Uski nazar backyard par chali gayi.
Wahan mazdoor kaam kar rahe thay —
cementing, hammering… dhoop ke bawajood mehnat.
Robert ne kaha:
“Naya pool banwa rahe hain.
Meri biwi pools ki bohot shaukeen hai.”
Suraj sirf awkward muskuraya.
Phir Robert ne poocha:
“Tum Sikandar ke dost ho?
University mein mile thay?”
“Nahi… hum military mein mile thay.
Jab Sikandar service mein tha,”
Suraj ne thori udaasi ke sath jawab diya.
Robert hairan hua.
“Mujhe yaqeen nahi hota ke uska koi purana dost bhi ho sakta hai.
Woh bohot khamosh ladka hai.”
Phir baaton baaton mein, Robert Suraj ko garage le gaya.
Wahan char motorcycles thi —
har aik mukhtalif type ki.
Robert apni jawani ke qissay sunane laga.
“Us waqt bikes ke sath larkiyan khud line mein lag jati thi,”
woh hans kar bola.
“Jawani mein maze kar lo…
warna baad mein aik hi larki ke sath phans jaoge.”
Robert hans raha tha.
Magar Suraj ka chehra badal gaya.
“Excuse me… bathroom?”
Bathroom mein pohanch kar, Suraj ne pani khola
aur zor se apna chehra dhoya.
Uski saans tez thi,
jism pasinay se bhar gaya.
Aankhon ke samne flashbacks aane lage.
BOOM!
GOLIYON KI AWAAZEIN!
LOGON KI CHEEKHEN!
“Medic! Idhar aao!”
“Meri baazu!”
“Main marna nahi chahta!”
Aainay mein ab uska aks nahi tha,
balkay zakhmi aur khoon mein doobay log thay.
Woh military uniform mein tha,
baazu par medic ka band.
Woh tay nahi kar pa raha tha
kis ki jaan pehle bachaye.
Suraj phisal kar deewar ke sath baith gaya
aur sar pakar liya.
Yeh baat us ne kabhi kisi ko nahi batayi…
na hi Sikandar ko.
Kuch dair baad, woh bahar nikla.
Chehra phir se normal tha.
Aur tabhi darwaza khula.
Mrs. Greene shopping bags ke sath andar aayi.
Designer kapray, classy andaaz.
Suraj ko dekh kar woh khushi se boli:
“Suraj! Aao, mujhe hug do!”
_ _ _ _
Mrs. Greene dheere dheere Suraj ki taraf aayi aur usay gale laga liya.
Dono ki pehli mulaqat us din hui thi jab UWO ne unhein bahaduri ke medals diye thay. Us din ke baad Suraj, Mrs. Greene se kaafi familiar ho chuka tha—
khaaskar jab bhi usay yaad aata ke Sikandar ne uske liye apni jaan qurbaan kar di thi.
“Tum kaise ho beta? Kaafi mahine ho gaye hain tumhein dekhe hue,”
Mrs. Greene ne muskurate hue kaha.
Suraj ke liye ye dekh kar dil ko sukoon mila ke wo ab theek lag rahi thi.
Suraj ne narmi se muskurate hue jawab diya,
“Main bilkul theek hoon Mrs. Greene… aur mujhe afsos hai ke main kuch arsey se aap se milne nahi aa saka.”
Ye sun kar Mrs. Greene halki si hans pari.
“Is mein sorry kis baat ka? Mujhe pata hai tum log kitne masroof ho,”
unhon ne kaha aur Robert ko ishara kiya ke shopping bags le jaye.
Apne dost ki maa ko itna theek dekh kar Suraj bhi khush ho gaya.
Usay yaad tha pichhli mulaqat—jab Mrs. Greene bilkul toot chuki thi.
Aaj unki aankhon mein zindagi wapas dekh kar Suraj ka dil halka ho gaya.
Mrs. Greene, Suraj ko sofa tak le aayi.
Dono baith gaye.
“Tum pehle bata dete ke aa rahe ho, main tumhare liye khud khana banati,”
unhon ne pyaar se kaha.
“Koi baat nahi Mrs. Greene,” Suraj ne adab se jawab diya.
Ye sun kar Mrs. Greene foran khari ho gayi.
“Ye kya baat hui? Main abhi bana leti hoon!”
Lekin Suraj ne unka haath pakar kar unhein roka.
Wo hairani se Suraj ko dekhne lagi.
“Asal mein… main aap dono ko kahin le jane aaya hoon,”
Suraj ne thora hichkichate hue kaha.
Isi waqt Robert wapas aaya aur baat sun li.
“Trip?” Robert ne udaasi se kaha,
“Maaf karna Suraj, lekin main shayad nahi aa sakta. Kaam bohat zyada hai.”
Mrs. Greene ne foran kaha,
“Main aa sakti hoon, tum fikar mat karo. Batao, kahan ja rahe hain?”
Suraj ne seedha Robert ki taraf dekha.
“Nahi… aap dono ko aana hoga. Ye trip Sikandar ne plan ki hai. Agar aap nahi aaye to wo bohat udaas ho jayega.”
Robert hairan reh gaya.
“Sikandar ne plan ki hai?”
Mrs. Greene ki aankhon mein chamak aa gayi.
“Tum Sikandar se mile? Ye to bohat achi khabar hai!”
Phir unhon ne Robert ko kaha ke aik din ki chhutti le le.
Thori dair sochne ke baad Robert maan gaya.
“Lekin agar tum Sikandar se mile ho to wo khud kyun nahi aaya?”
Mrs. Greene ne poocha.
Suraj ne foran jawab diya,
“University mein uska kuch zaroori kaam hai, is liye nahi aa saka.”
Dono ne sar hila diya aur packing shuru kar di.
Suraj ne kaha ke wo jald rawana honge.
‘Shukar hai ye maan gaye… baqi baat Sikandar khud samjha dega,’
Suraj ne dil hi dil mein socha.

Ratmawati City ke kisi kone mein…
Ek azeem-o-shaan mansion ke andar aik khandaan nashta kar raha tha.
Safed aur hary rang se saja hua ye mansion har taraf se guards se ghira hua tha.
Luxury cars samne khari thi, aur har cheez bilkul perfect lag rahi thi—
lekin mahaul ghutan bhara tha.
Dining hall mein paanch afraad baithay thay.
Sab ke baal hary rang ke thay, siwaye aik darmiyani umar ki aurat ke jiske baal bhuray thay.
Khamoshi itni gehri thi ke chamach ki halki awaaz bhi tez lag rahi thi.
Khandaan ka sarbarah aaram se khana kha raha tha,
lekin uski teiz nazrein apni beti par jami hui thin.
Agar Sikandar yahan hota,
to wo is larki ko pehchan leta—
ye wahi Jane thi jo us se pichhli raat Amethyst Hotel mein mili thi.
Jane ne nazrein neeche kar rakhi thin.
Uske haath kaanp rahe thay aur wo table ke neeche ungliyon se khel rahi thi.
“To tum keh rahi ho… ke ye Sikandar naam ka larka teeno Spellbooks rakhta hai?”
baap ne uski baat dohrayi.
Jane ne hont kaat liye.
“Ji… uske paas saboot tha. Aur wo hamare khandaan se bilkul nahi darta.”
Ye sun kar poora hall aur zyada bhaari ho gaya.
Ye baat ke koi ‘aam larka’ unhein dhamka sake—
ye Wesley Atkins ke liye bardasht se bahar tha.
“Usne tum se aur kya kaha?”
Wesley ne poocha.
“Usne kaha ke wo aapse baat karna chahta hai…
wo chahta hai ke uski shartein suni jayein.
Wo aapse—Wesley Atkins—se baat karna chahta hai.”
Wesley ne gehri saans li.
“Main ne tumhein Spellbooks churaane ko kaha tha.
Tumhein sirf Platchi se deal karni thi.
Aur tum keh rahi ho ke Sikandar ne tum se pehle haath maar liya?”
Jane foran boli,
“Nahi father… uska kehna hai ke usne jaan boojh kar nahi liya.
Uske log ghalat box le aaye.
Aur lagta hai wo Platchi ka bhi dushman hai.”
PRANG!
Wesley ki aura phat padi.
Platein aur khana hawa mein ud gaya.
“Ye koi justification nahi hai!”
Wesley ne ghurrate hue kaha.
“Tum Rank Six ho!
Aur tum aik student se haar gayi jo mushkil se Rank Four tak pohancha hai?!”
Wo uth kar Jane ke bilkul qareeb aa gaya.
“Spellbooks ki ahmiyat main ne samjhayi thi!
Agar ye haath se nikal gaye to hum Top Ten se neeche gir jayenge!”
Isi waqt aik guard aage aaya aur Wesley ke kaan mein kuch kaha.
Wesley ki aankhein phail gayin.
Phir uska chehra sakht ho gaya.
“Main khud ja kar is haramzaaday se milunga,”
usne kaha.
“Tum filhaal apna hisaab barabar karne ki koshish karo.”
Ye keh kar Wesley hall se nikal gaya.
.
.
.
.
Agla din…
Sikandar apne ghar mein Ryze aur Karan ke saath nashta kar raha tha.
Uski nazar Karan par pari—
uski aankhon ke neeche gehre siyah halqay thay.
Wo raat bhar so nahi saka tha.
Usay darr tha ke jaise hi wo soye, dushman hamla kar denge.
“Main madad karna chahta hoon…
mujhe madad karne do,”
Karan ne pur-azm lehje mein kaha.
Sikandar ne us reminder ki taraf dekha, phir gehri saans li.
“Tum mushkil soorat-e-haal mein ho,”
Sikandar ne kaha.
“Agar madad karni hai…
to pehle apni ghaltiyon par socho jo tumhein yahan tak le aayi.
Aur dobara wo ghalti mat dohrana.”
Karan ne majbooran khamoshi ikhtiyar kar li.
Sikandar ka mood waise bhi kharab tha.
Us vision ke baad usay samajh aa chuka tha—
Yule Moon usay mazid taqat nahi de sakti…
Aur ye baat uske liye sab se zyada khatarnaak thi.
Itni sari cheezein aik sath ho rahi theen ke Sikandar ka dimagh bhari ho chuka tha.
Usay poori umeed thi ke aane wali full moon usay bohat zyada strong bana degi, kyun ke woh aik Werewolf tha.
Lekin ab…
Usay achi tarah pata tha ke agli full moon uski madad nahi karegi.
Yule Moon ke qareeb hone aur apni kam Sanity ko dekh kar, Sikandar samajh chuka tha ke sirf intezar se kaam nahi chale ga.
Is liye us ne System Shop kholne ka faisla kiya.
“Shayad yahan kuch aisa mil jaye jo meri madad kar sake…”
Us ne shop kholi aur filter ko ‘Spirit’ par set kar diya.
Jaise hi filter apply hua, us ke samne mukhtalif qisam ke spirits aa gaye — aag, pani, hawa, zameen aur bijli ke elements ke sath, har aik ke apne ajeeb effects the.
Is waqt Sikandar ko hairani bhi nahi hui.
System se woh ab kaafi kuch dekh chuka tha.
Scroll karte hue usay ehsaas hua ke tamam achay spirits kam az kam 20,000 gold se shuru ho rahe the — aur itna gold us ke paas filhaal bilkul nahi tha.
Phir us ki nazar aik spirit par ja kar ruk gayi.
Aik azeem spirit jis ne 11,000 saal pehle Clouds ke purane Gatekeeper ko replace kiya tha.
Devo aik intehai powerful lightning-based spirit hai.
Jis Lightning Elementalist ke sath yeh bind hota hai, us ki taqat teen guna barh jati hai.
Effect Gained:
• Enhanced Lightning-Based
Abilities
• Expanded Mana Absorption
Radius
• Weather Control
Sikandar ki aankhon mein chamak aa gayi.
Yeh spirit bijli ka tha, jo bilkul us ke sath compatible tha — lekin asal wajah kuch aur thi.
Expanded Mana Absorption Radius.
“Yeh… yeh meri zindagi badal sakta hai…”
Agar normally Rank 6 tak pohanchne mein Sikandar ko 4 mahine lagte, to is spirit ke sath woh shayad aadha waqt, ya us se bhi kam mein rank up kar sakta tha.
Sirf tasawwur hi us ke jism ko kapkapa gaya.
Agar woh strong ho jaye…
to us ke tamam masail khatam ho sakte hain.
Lekin phir us ki nazar price par pari.
100,000 Gold.
Sikandar ne gehri saans li aur thandi ah bhari.
“High Spirit hai… sasta to ho hi nahi sakta.”
‘Pehle Rank Five tak pohanchna hoga… phir hi main isay khareed sakta hoon,’
Sikandar ne dil hi dil mein socha.
Sochte sochte woh be-ikhteyar dusre kamre mein chala gaya, jab ke Ryze aur Karan kitchen mein hi maujood the.
Kai ghantay guzarnay ke baad, Sikandar kamre se bahar nikla.
Us ki aankhon mein ab azm tha.
Us ke zehan mein aik plan ban chuka tha — agar yeh plan kamyaab ho gaya, to woh sirf strong hi nahi…
balkeh nayi bulandiyon ko chhoo sakta tha.
Sikandar phir se FAA Office ki taraf gaya.
Is martaba us ka maqsad tha —
detective ka peecha karna aur yeh jaan’na ke spellbooks asal mein kis ke liye hain.
Ab tak yeh baat usay bilkul bhi clear nahi thi.
Lekin jaise hi woh ghar se bahar nikla, us ne dekha ke galiyon mein FAA ke bohat se members maujood hain.
Kahin chhote groups mein, kahin akelay…
Aur bohat se to Ochyra University ke andar tak phail chuke the.
“Yeh yaqeenan spellbooks ki talash mein hain,”
Sikandar ne socha.
Us ne aik stall se topi khareedi, phir university ke andar chala gaya.
Usay detective ki khushboo mehsoos ho rahi thi.
Werewolf honay ki wajah se Sikandar ke tamam senses hadd se zyada tez the —
khaaskar smell.
Sirf aik dafa door se smell kar ke, woh kisi ki khushboo yaad rakh sakta tha.
Woh aik kone mein pohancha aur dekha ke detective kuch FAA members se baat kar raha hai.
Isi dauran Sikandar ka phone baj utha.
Screen par Suraj ka naam chamak raha tha.
“Sab kaisa chal raha hai?” Sikandar ne poocha.
“Main raaste mein hoon,”
Suraj ne jawab diya, awaaz se lag raha tha ke woh car mein hai.
“Tumhein bhi wahan pohanch kar unhein situation explain karni hogi.”
“Samajh gaya,”
Sikandar ne kaha aur call band kar di.
Detective FAA members ko search radius ke baray mein bata raha tha,
lekin Sikandar ko wahan se koi khaas maloomat nahi mili.
Jab woh wapas janay hi wala tha…
us ne kuch dekha.
Detective achanak group se alag ho gaya.
Woh aam logon ke sath normal andaz mein chal raha tha,
idhar-udhar nazar daalte hue.
Sikandar ne us ka peecha jari rakhne ka faisla kiya.
University se bahar nikal kar detective aik chhote se ghar ke samne ruk gaya.
Us ne idhar-udhar dekha —
jis par Sikandar foran aik barey ghamlay ke peechay chhup gaya.
Itminan ke baad ke koi peecha nahi kar raha,
detective ne darwaze par aik code knock ki —
jo Sikandar ne apni tez aankhon se note kar liya.
Detective ke andar jaane ke baad,
Sikandar deewar ke sath lag kar darwaze ke qareeb aa gaya.
Woh poori tarah sun nahi sakta tha,
lekin kuch alfaaz us ke kaanon tak pohanch rahe the.
“Hamare logon ne mehsoos kiya hai ke spellbooks kisi chor ke paas hain… aur woh yahin ke aas paas hai,”
aik aurat ki awaaz sunai di.
“Hum poori koshish kar rahe hain, ma’am,”
detective ne jawab diya.
“Ho sakta hai yeh Atkins Family ho,”
aurat ne kaha.
“Woh haal hi mein kaafi harkat mein hain.”
Detective ne hichkichate hue poocha,
“Phir kya mujhe un ki property search karni chahiye?”
“Nahi,”
aurat ne sakhti se kaha.
“Spellbooks bohat secret hain.
Hum yeh baat public nahi kar sakte ke hum unhein dhoondh rahe hain.”
Phir woh boli,
“Agar tum spellbooks dhoondh kar humein de do,
to Reed Family tumhari qarzdar hogi…
aur tumhein bharpoor inaam milega.”
Yeh sun kar Sikandar ki aankhen phail gayin.
“Reed Family…?”
Usay jaise hi itni maloomat mil gayi,
woh wahan se hatna hi chahta tha ke…
Achanak!
Kisi ne peechay se us ka munh pakar liya.
Kaali energy ne dono ko ghair liya.
Sikandar ne poori taqat se chutnay ki koshish ki,
lekin be-faida.
Us ne dekha ke us ka jism poori tarah black energy mein doob gaya —
aur aglay hi lamhay…
Teleport!
Zameen par zor se girte hue woh aagay phaink diya gaya.
Thud!
Dard se daant pees kar, Sikandar ne peechay dekha.
Aur jise dekha…
us ki saans atak gayi.
“A-Aap…?”
“Principal?!”
