(Outer space , Kritanian galaxy , Planet Gaia is engulfed in flames. , flames of the violence and rage of its own natives . Soon, 3 jet black ships led by a bigger one surround the planet.)

Main ship

     A man runs towards the captain's chair . Seated in the captain's chair is a tall well built man with blindfold over his eyes. Bowing to the tall captain , the man says , "Lord Andhak , I am here to update you regarding the condition of planet Gaia."

Andhak asks , "What is it , Jatara?" Jatara replies , "The state of the planet is pitiable . Morality lost its roots . Everywhere there's death and destruction. Soon , there will be no lives left."

Andhak sighs and gets up . He presses his ear piece and asks , "Mayasur , do you copy?"

Mayasur replies , "Yes , Andhak ." Andhak orders , " Use your maya and gather all the innocent life from Planet Gaia. Do it asap."

Mayasur replies , "Roger that , Andhak." Accompanied by an army of Asuras , he descends onto the planet. Sometime later , they arrive back in the main ship with small shiplets full of Gaians, the natives of Gaia.

     A female Asura in a doctor clothing attends to the Gaian natives and tends their wounded along with her team of nurses and attendants. Mayasur reverts back to Andhak , "Andhak , job done." Andhak orders , "Now stay as far from the Planet as possible."

Andhak comes out of his ship and faces the planet. He removes his blindfold and yells , "Asura Maya: Ananta Andhakara "

The whole planet gets engulfed in darkness and gets dissolved into a dark puddle. The dark puddle is then absorbed by Andhak's eyes. Andhak wears his blindfold and takes a deep breath.

He then extends his arm towards the now empty space and screams , "Tamasi Maya: Graha Nirmanah" The entire planet gets resurrected to the state it was before the violence erupted but now without the bad elements that caused that.  The shocked Gaians watch the scene with wide eyes. A kid asks the doctor Asurni , "What just happened?"

She smiles and replies , "Your planet got resurrected. You won't understand it now."

The kid nods.

    Andhak returns to the main ship . He goes inside his cabin and meets up his cousin , another Asura. He says , "Prahlada ,I have something important to tell you."

Prahlada asks , "What is it ?" Andhak replies , "My Father telepathically informed me. He is here."

Prahlada asks , "who?" Andhak replies , "The Asura Kula Chakarvarthy"

Prahlada asks , "Who is he and where is he?"

Andhak replies , "He is a native of planet Earth in sector 3 . He will soon ascend the throne. We need to be ready."

(Hospital ,City K , Country B , Planet Earth)

 A 19 year old man wakes up from a coma . He starts hearing muffled voices demanding and requesting something , something related to their relatives. He looks around and sees a beautiful woman of his age sleeping , leaning on his bed. The woman wakes up and looks at the man with absolute joy. She hugs him and says , "Rudra...you are finally back..." Rudra gets startled for a second but soon understands the situation. He looks at the woman and asks , "How long was I ......asleep, Esther?"

Esther replies , "2 months."

(Night 3 am , 2 years later , Southern Rainforests )

A 21 year old man struggles to sleep in his wood house. Parts of his life flash as dreams or to be more precise , nightmares.......

'I am sorry but your son is not a human......... it' was impossible for him to wake up from the coma but still he did........' , says a shocked doctor. A group of people shout , 'Evil , he is evil. He is one among Asuras , he is a monster and a man-eater , the wrath of God is upon us and he has sent this abomination to counter Atheists '

Suddenly everything turns black and a visually impaired woman reaches out to the man screaming , 'Rudra.....Help me ....please save me from these monsters , ......please......'

Rudra tries desperately to hold her hand but someone hits him on the back of his head as a group of unknown people drag the woman away. Rudra screams , 'Angela , noo.....stop.....'

.

He wakes up fully drenched with sweat. He looks at his phone and finds many notifications , half of them from his mother and half of them from his fiancee . His mother had texted , 'Sweetie , are you alright? You haven't called me since day before yesterday , and this had me worried. you might be an immortal Asura now but still you are my baby and I care about your health. Your father is worried too..so if you find time , please call either me or your father. '

Rudra sighs and replies back that he would call her in the morning. He looks at the message by his fiancee . It read ' I knew you would wake up at 3:30 ish and keep scrolling through your phone like some dumbfuck . Don't keep doing that. Try meditating and sleeping.'

Rudra replies , 'I am trying , Esther.....but I am not able to.Maybe if you were here , I would have snuggled with you and slept.'

Esther replies by sending laughing emojis . She adds , 'Stop flirting with me and check on Tanya. I will be back tomorrow. '

Rudra sends a thumbs up emoji. A feeble little girl's voice says , " Rudrapa..."

Rudra looks at the source of the sound and finds his 5 yr old adopted daughter standing near the door. He gets up and lifts the little girl in his arms. He asks , "What's the matter , princess? What's harming my little Tanya?"

Tanya asks in a feeble tone  , "Can I sleep here with you?" Rudra raises his eyebrows and asks , "Did something scare you ?" Tanya nods and says , "Bad dreams ."

Rudra sighs and places her on the bed. He lies beside her and gently pats her head untill she sleeps . Soon , Tanya falls asleep cuddling her foster father. He calls his mother and talks to her for a while and lays back on his bed frame with closed eyes.

All of a sudden , Rudra hears muffled voices of people requesting him to save them from a threat. He looks towards the horizon with his blood boiling.

(Morning 5 am , Airport City H)

Rapid Action Force , Media and Paramedics surround the airport as it's hijacked by International Terrorists. The RAF leader along with best of his negotiators try to negotiate with the terrorists who demand heavy ransom and the release of their leader who was captured.

One of the terrorists grabs a woman by hair and drags her out of the crowd. He tries to forcefully kiss her but the woman manages to free her hands and slaps him. The terrorist slaps the woman back and gets hold of her upper body clothing . As he tries to tear it , a golden discus appears out of nowhere and chops his arm clean off his shoulder.  The discus returns towards its source and the other terrorists open fire at that source. When the gun smoke clears , Rudra appears intact , clad in black jacket , white shirt and black pants.

Rudra snarls and says , "Tonight I am gonna have terrorist soup. " He attacks the terrorists and blitzes through two of them , killing them in an instant . The other terrorists back off . One of them yells , "Who the **** are you?"

Rudra replies , " I am the Asura and I am very very mad now."

He yells , " Vinaasha " and the next three get vaporized , erased from existence. The handless terrorist tries to run but Rudra claps his arms and creates an energy trident. He hurls the trident at the terrorist which stabs and kills him. An injured airport security official says , "Asura....they have a bomb...inside....this...airport."

Rudra nods and says , "I know and I know where it is exactly."

He raises his arm and the bomb appears towards him. He clicks the index finger of his other arm and says , " Tamasi Maya: Pratiloma Kshetra "

The bomb doesn't explode and goes poof. After making sure that everything is safe for people , Rudra teleports away to his forest home.

(Rainforest , Country B )

Rudra arrives at his home. He enters his house and is greeted by an angry Esther. Rudra looks at her and asks , "Babe , when did you arrive?"

She replies in a deep angry tone , " Don't 'babe' me. Where were you? I was looking for last 30 mins . And you left a clone with a sleeping Tanya. Do you understand the gravity of the situation?"

Rudra smiles and replies , "I sensed you coming here so I left a clone. I heard people asking for help , so I went to help them. With great power comes great responsibility , right?"

Esther fumes in anger and retorts , "And what kind of father leaves his daughter alone with a clone of his when she specifically said she was afraid?"

Rudra says ,"Babe..." Esther retorts , "I said don't babe me. Look at your eyes , you barely slept. Yes , you are immortal , but atleast take care of yourself." She starts crying and hugs him and continues , "It pains me to see you this way. And who are you saving ?! Those mongrels , dirty , filth minded mortals who declared you evil."

Rudra sighs and caresses Esther. He kisses her hair and says , "It's ok . Stop crying. I love you."

Suddenly , Esther senses something. She says , "I sense Her. Guru is coming." Rudra nods and says , "It indeed is Goddess Parvati , our Guru."

"But why would she come here at this point in time?"

(1.5 years ago. Southern Rainforest region, Country B)

Rudra meditates sitting on a rock outside his home . All of a sudden, he hears something . A faint voice says , 'You mindless beasts!!!! You think you can get away from these stuffs. I am an ardent devotee of Lord Shiva , the eternal destroyer, and He will come to protect me.....'

All of a sudden , Rudra gets agitated . Anger flows through his veins , making his blood boil. He traces the direction of the voice and sets off to the location.

(4 hours later , a few miles away from Rudra's rainforest home, Country B)

Rudra stands in the midst , surrounded by bodies of perpetrators of a destructive riot. His body is covered with blood . He carries a machete in his hand which is covered in blood , Rudra pants in anger and rage. A terrified group of villagers watches in fear and respect, as well as with gratitude . The last of the riot perpetrators asks in a terrified tone, "Who.....who...are…you.....??"  Rudra replies in a deeper , divine tone , "Do you know who is Shiva , the Supreme among Rudras ? The Divine Light that stands out in a cave of Despair , the orb of Truth battling a world of Lies , the Champion of innocents battling bloodthirsty mongrels like you ....the one who carries the machete Chandrahasa ...the One who gets red and fiery in Anger.....the One who battles and annihilates monsters like you …ayam Shivam , aham Shivam.**"

Saying this, Rudra slashes the perpetrator's head clean off his shoulders. He teleports away from the scene to a much remote and isolated place in the forests. He struggles to maintain control over himself. All of a sudden, he lets out a loud roar. The roar shakes the entire planet and goes off to even the outer frontiers of space. Rudra slowly transforms. He grows out two more arms from his shoulder. A faint line appears on his forehead, indicating the possibility of a third eye. His hair grows longer. Rudra grows claws and fangs . As the transformation completes , Rudra stands surrounded by a bluish-purple fire.

Far from the transformation scene , a monkey like creature stands up, disturbed from its meditative posture. The creature looks at the direction of the wind and says , "What in the holy name of Lord Rama is this?"

The creature teleports to Rudra's location and says, " Hello friend , I am Hanuman, the son of Anjani and the Vanar king Kesari. I am also an aspect of the Wind Deity, Vāyu. You look like you are in trouble, May I help you?" Rudra growls at Hanuman. Concerned and confused, Hanuman uses his divine vision to find what's bothering Rudra. He gasps in shock and mutters to himself, " Lord Shiva...so, it's Him. The Asurakula Chakravarthy."

Rudra attacks Hanuman. He punches Hanuman right across his face. Hanuman staggers a bit and is visibly shaken by the punch. Rudra punches Hanuman again, but this time Hanuman defends himself. He counter-attacks Rudra. "OWWWWWW!!!!," Hanuman screams, withdrawing his hand away from Rudra's face. He looks at his hand and notices intense burn marks. Before he could make out the origin of the marks, Rudra punches him in the gut and kicks him away. Thrown away to a certain distance and dazed , Hanuman gets some time to think. He mumbles to himself, " What is this, Lord Rama? He seems to be in pain. What should I do now?"

All of a sudden, Rudra attacks Hanuman who manages to barely defend himself. Hanuman thinks about Lord Rama and, with a newfound strength , punches Rudra. This punch manages to stun Rudra for a moment. Hanuman then smacks Rudra on his face, scratching his left eye and leaving a claw scar. Groaning in agony and anger, Rudra punches Hanuman and grapples him. Hanuman sees an injury on Rudra's left arm and understands the situation. All of a sudden, a four-armed figure appears in front of Rudra and hurls a discus at him. The discus slices Rudra on his right cheek and renders him unconscious.

(Present time, Rudra's woodhouse , Southern Rainforests, City S)

A golden glow covers the canopy. Rudra and Esther run outside and bow towards a Goddess. The Goddess smiles and nods. She says, " How are you, Rudra and Esther?" Esther replies, " It's Sam, it's Sam for you. Yes, I am fine, Supreme Mother." Rudra replies, " I am good, Supreme Mother." The Goddess smiles and asks, "  Even I am not allowed to call you Esther , eh? Is that privilege only for Rudra?"

Blushing, Esther nods and says, " It's only for him."  The Goddess laughs and says, " Anyways, Rudra the time to test your skills is here. Sam proved hers a while back. Now's your chance. You will have 7 days to train and after 7 days you will have a friendly duel with my son, Karthikeya. You shall be tested on your prowess to control the Kalagni or the Fire of the void . And only after the test, I shall reveal your destiny."

Rudra nods and says, " I will try my best, Supreme Mother."  The Goddess nods and says, " See you in 7 days then."

She disappears from there.  Rudra looks at the horizon and rubs the scar on his right cheek. Esther hugs him and says, " Still thinking about what that Vishnu did to you?"

Rudra replies, " The Supreme Narayana had no bad intention in doing this. He needed to do this . I understand this action of His."

Esther says, " Nonsense, He did this deliberately . He did this because you are an Asura. He hates Asuras." Rudra says, " Babe, I was out of control. Hanuman was trying his best to stop me. The Narayani Army was unable to control me. Bhagwan Parashuram was failing to control me. Heck, Nandi Maharaj couldn't control me. No divine weapons were effective against me. So, Bhagwan Narayana had no choice but to do this."

Esther says, " I don't care. He harmed you. He harmed you when you were in pain." Rudra pats her head and kisses her forehead. He says, " You check on Tanya. She must be awake by now. I will feed the wolves and the cattle."

Esther nods and moves inside the house. Rudra lets out a unique whistle and a pack of wolves come running to him. The alpha male jumps to Rudra's arm and licks his face with affection. The other wolves nuzzle him and rub against him. Rudra pets the wolves and summons a piece of meat. He throws the piece of meat towards the Alphas.

He, then, picks up a bunch of hay and feeds the cattle. Once done, he closes his eyes and meditates. A young boy's voice disrupts his meditation. " Daddy, "says the boy. " What are you doing?"

Rudra opens his eyes and sees a 4-year-old boy standing behind him. He motions the kid to come closer, and the kid trots closer to him. Rudra puts his arm around him and says, " Nothing, Yamato. Do you need something?" The kid smiles and says, " No , daddy. I just want to play with you." Rudra grins and ruffles his hair.  Yamato brings out a ball and throws it towards Rudra. Soon, Rudra and Yamato start playing with the ball.

Yamato throws the ball and Rudra deliberately misses it to make his son win. "YAY!!!!!, I beat papa, " Yamato cheerfully shouts. He runs towards Rudra and hugs him. Rudra laughs and lifts his adoptive son. Esther watches them from a distance. She smiles and thinks, " My Rudra!. You are the epitome of masculinity. Your dark skin oozes power. Your black good right eye shines bright every time. Your left eye is charming, even if it's injured. The claw mark over your left eye is the symbol of your victory over the son of Anjani. The scar on your right cheek is the symbol of your battle with Narayana. You are wild as a wolf, but calm as a sage. You are the Destroyer , but you have the heart of a compassionate saint. That long hair, tied behind your head .... I want to touch it. You are a naive uncouth barbarian, but you are my naive uncouth barbarian." Her cheeks turn red.  Rudra notices Esther and smiles. He knows exactly what his darling is thinking. He walks towards her with Yamato. He lets Yamato down and says, " Go play with your sister now." Yamato nods and runs away.

Rudra walks closer to Esther and kisses her on her cheek. Esther blushes and wraps her arm around him. Rudra gently brushes her hair and says, " I know exactly what you were thinking, my dear love. How could you call me an uncouth barbarian." Esther frowns and says, " You are not a barbarian, you are a wild animal." She kisses him on the cheek and says, " you are my wild animal."  She kisses Rudra warmly on his lips and Rudra lifts her up. He settles down on the couch with his beloved on his lap. Esther fiddles with Rudra's hair and says, " Well, you will let me down sometime." Rudra smiles and says, " If I could, I would forever hold you like this . But, you are heavy. " Esther playfully slaps him and says, " who are you calling heavy?" Rudra laughs and their romance continues for a while. Esther rests her head on Rudra's chest and falls asleep. Rudra gently brushes her hair and recalls the memories of what happened two years ago...

(Two years ago, Southern Rainforests )

Rudra walks ahead with a sleeping Tanya on his back , with Esther closely following him. Rudra says, " Go away. This isn't the place for you." Esther retorts, " As if it is for you. You don't get me , Rudra. You are just in pain. I love you and I will never leave you." Rudra shouts back , " I am a monster, a demon. Don't follow me."

Esther retorts again, " I belong to the same Asura race as you. Why are you shoving me away? Are you that weak that you won't control yourself in my presence? " She starts crying and says in a tearful voice, " I will only live where you live. I will never leave you . You are my love. And Yamato needs a father. Are you gonna leave him alone as well? " Rudra stops in his tracks and turns around. Tears flow out of his eyes. Esther runs towards him and hugs him. Rudra brushes her hair and asks, "Why do you love me so much?"

Present Time ,

Rudra says, " I still can't find the answer to that, my dear Esther." He kisses her hair and leans back on the couch , falling asleep.

Asura Empire , Svarga or Cosmic Plane

The Asura delegates discuss among themselves. One of the Asuras asks, " How long are we gonna continue without an Emperor?" Andhak replies, " Silence, Viceroy of Bringa  region. This is a decision by the Trimurti and the Sanga  shall wait till then."

Bali counters, " Andhak-sa , we understand you are the Kaiser  of the Daityas but you don't need to be rude. The Bringa region is a stronghold of the Vishra clan . This isn't diplomatic.,at all."

Vibhishana replies, " Bali, I disagree. This is the fifteenth time , she asked the same question. By doing so, she is questioning the authority of the Sanga . The Vishra is a clan of rakshasas descending from my family. I am pretty sure they will understand. And if they don't, as the Czar of Rakshasas , I order no resistance from them. "

Andhaka sighs and says, " this isn't important right now. The order of the court is to decide the welcoming comittee for our Emperor. Yes, I, the Grand Minister of the Asura court and the Kaiser of Daityas , am glad to announce that the Asurakula Chakravarthy will soon be ascending the Divine Royal Throne.

The Viceroy exclaims, " Really?!, who is that, Kaiser?"

Andhaka smiles and says, " Years ago, as I was leaving the abode of the Great Destroyer, He said that He Himself will take an incarnation and arrive to ascend the Throne of Asuras. I say He will be here soon. He is the Almighty Sri-Rudra after all."

Rudra's woodhouse, Southern rainforests

Rudra opens his eyes after feeling a tinge of energy in his left arm. He looks at a purplish blue fire, surrounding his arm.  The fire nuzzled Esther as she comfortably slept in Rudra's arms. Esther's minor injuries and dry skin healed instantly on contact with the fire. Rudra sighed and the fire disappeared.

'What was that?, ' he thought, while gently brushing his sweetheart's hair.

A few hours later

Rudra stands before a rock . He extends his arm forward and focuses on destroying the rock. The fire emerges from the rock and the rock explodes with a loud bang.  Esther comes running out of the house . She asks with a mixed tone of confusion and shock, " Rudra, what did you do? What was that noise?"

Rudra replies, " I think I figured out how Kalagni works. But I don't understand it completely."  Esther runs towards Rudra and checks him thoroughly. " It's fine, babe, I am not hurt, " Rudra says with a light hearted voice.

Esther rubs her forehead and sighs . She asks, " What did you find out?" Rudra replies, " I summoned the Kalagni during our nap . But when I did that, it didn't destroy or harm anything. It did destroy, it destroyed your injuries , your dry skin and some other pains you had. Now I summoned it again , on the rock, it completely erased the rock from Existence."

Esther thinks a bit. She says, " What I say about you is you are very emotional. You have too much in everything. You love too much, You get wildly angry . You get very sad. You laugh out loud. " She smiles and pulls his cheeks. "My wild Asura, " she says cheerfully. Rudra says, " This doesn't answer my question."  Esther playfully slaps Rudra's head and says, " think, you ape."

Rudra thinks for a while and says, " Now I remember. Also, now I get what Bhagwan Parashuram wanted to say."

Esther raises her eyebrow and asks, " Eh? What and when did he say?"

1.5 years ago, after the Great Skirmish 

Rudra gets up from his bed, confused . He grimaces and grabs his left arm . He looks in confusion as the arm is bluer than the other. He looks beside to see Esther, asleep while taking care of him. He looks ahead and sees a tall sage talking to Tanya. The little girl giggles as she plays a game of chess with him. Rudra gets up and goes to the sage.

"Yay, I did it. I beat the Old uncle!!!!," Tanya jumps in excitement. The sage smiles and gently pats the girl's head. Rudra smiles and says, " Seeing smile on your face makes me more happier than seeing one on her's, Lord Bhargava. " The sage looks at Rudra and asks, " How are you kid? Were you hurt that bad?" Rudra walks towards the sage and touches his feet. The sage gently lifts Rudra and says, " Oh No! Don't do that, Virupaksha . Don't do that. I see my Lord, Bhagwan Parameshwara in you. " Rudra asks, " What happened to me?"

The warrior sage smiled and replied, " The Kalagni  or the Fire of Void is an ability given as a gift by one of the most unlikely sources to you, Indra among Asuras.  It's just that the fire got out of your control."

Rudra asks, " How can I control it?" Parashurama laughed and asked, " You still want to use it without proper training? Think about it, Rudra. You shook the entire Existence. You destroyed the Preta Loka. You made the Celestial Sages fear and seek Bhagwan Shiva out of fear. The three infinite planes of Existence, The infinite Timelines, all the lifeforms, even the Abode of the Devas and Gandharvas saw the fear of destruction. You acted how your very name meant, the God of Destruction, Rudra. You still wanna know the secret to control it?"

Rudra replies, " If I caused this much destruction, then I am entitled to know how it works. I can't let innocents die because of me. " The warrior sage replies, " It all depends on what you think Rudra. This is something that is related to your will. Your will determines everything. Remember , a focused mind doesn't have any limitations."

Present time....

Rudra opens his mouth to reply but is suddenly distracted by something. He looks at a specific direction and growls in rage. " That son of a b*** \,  how dare he attack so many innocents? Those poor people are begging me to save them. I have to go now\,  " he says with a voice quivering in anger.

Esther shouts, " Rudra , wait....don't...." Rudra throws his eyepatch down , revealing a dark black eye with a light blue eye ball. He disappears to the trouble location.

A remote village somewhere in Country B, Planet Earth 

Rudra reaches the place to see an army of other worldly creatures plundering and destroying the village. People try their best to flee from them.  Rudra clicks his fingers and people warp away from the army. The army of creatures look at Rudra , with their leader grinning.

The leader says. " I wanted to lure you out but I felt destroying mortals as more fun. Either ways, I am Deter and I am gonna kill you. "  Rudra grits his teeth in anger . He says in a low, brutal voice, " You guys dare to attack my place and challenge me?! Listen , you dumbfuck and listen this very well, This is going to be your last day in your fucking existance. Every deed you did, every word you spoke has made me violently angry. Today , your pot of sins is full and today, you get punished for your crimes. "

He growls in rage as Kalagni surrounds him. His other eye turns black with red eyeball and he grows a third eye. The third eye is black with purple eyeball. Rudra grows fangs and two more arms from his shoulder joints. He lets out a roar.

The entire Existential planes tremble under Rudra's power. The demon watches in horror as Rudra slowly walks towards him.

In a Divine, wrathful voice, Rudra roars, " The Dance of Destruction begins now "
