My life was going perfectly. Loving parents, A irritating brother, my friends and our mischievous acts. I thought to myself that what else do I need in my life. I was not a topper but were getting decent marks and my behavior was topmost.

But my fantasy world ended when I was in 11th. My marks really got worse and my parents and teachers were not happy about it. I was .east worried about it because I knew can still do better and just have to work harder. But there was something far more interesting. Our school had got 2 new transfer students which isn't weird but were foreigners. Both were from Japan and Korea. There names were Seri(Korea) and Lisa(Japan) . Our school had not got any foreigner students atheist at the branch where j was studying. Our school's 11th and 12th classes boys were gathered around them as there very beautiful. They looked as white as a snow and there eyes were like ocean and sky . I also was excited but when I saw no sign to approach them as boys had blocked the way I lost my interest and went back to my class. I was a chubby looking guy (not too fat and had good muscles) and my classmates make fun of me sometime, but they don't take to far as they know my anger to well. Well when teachers saw the rush outside they immediately sent them all to their classes.

Both the girls were in our class. There English was so good and were also smart. They knew all the answers to the questions asked by teachers. They seemed to had learned all this very well, but it Seemed to me like they had done all this work long ago but didn't want to ask this to them . Lisa and Seri both were surrounded by our classmates, and they seem like they were having fun. Someone called me from behind " Rudra , both of them are very good-looking, what do u say guys " all my friends node and some were looking at me like they wanted to ask me something. but I knew what this is about. they want me to approach them and and invite them to our group but I was hell not doing that and I knew they also wouldn't but was wrong . Andrew mustered his courage and went but only to be refused by them. they didn't hear what he wanted to say. Poor guy .

And then the most awaiting movement comes in every school going child's life 'lunch break 🙃'. it my favorite time not because of betting to eat lunch and other's (which we do all the time) but also because we get play sports as we eat really fast, and me my friends enjoy this as someday we don't get PE periods. I was thirsty and went inside my class by dodging the eyes of teachers . When I went inside I saw Lisa and Seri were still inside the class and had a serious look on their faces which I saw for the first time, but I didn't mind went to my seat and picked up my bottle. When I was going to take a sip Seri said "Rudra we have something to say to u ". I stopped and wondered what this is about. Seri said " we don't have time for this, so I am getting to the point you're born with some powers and that's a very strong power . I know this is going to sound crazy, but we need your help.

I was listening very carefully and had a serious look, but I laughed. "sorry guys I couldn't control it. you have a very good sense of humor Seri " saying this I was going out then suddenly someone hold my hand very hardly. I looked back and saw Lisa was holding my hand and I was surprised a i didn't expect a physique like Lisa's had so much strength. She said " like Seri said we don't have time for this so listen carefully " but before she could complete her sentence lunch break was over and our classmates came to the class. Lisa left my hand and went to her Chair and sat. Still confused what had happened also when back to my place.

After school, I was thinking about what Seri and Lisa had said. I wanted to tell my friends and wanted to know about their opinions but stopped myself faring to be a laughingstock if I told them about how Lisa had overpowered me. But thought of as my imagination and went back to my home. This was the only mistake I have done in my life which I regret till now. it was a choice I wanted to retake for which I could give my life for but maybe God had planned something else.

That night I didn't get any sleep. I was still thinking about what the hell had happened. Firstly some cute girls transfer to our school and all of a sudden tell me that I harbor some great power inside me and "THEY" are looking for me as somehow my powers are leaking like some rice falling from a hole in the rice bag ( know not a good example but still u get me right what I want to express). It's still a lot to digest. Wait a min it's like I am believing all their nonsense. I can't believe I was buying their bullshit. Whatever it still was a long day, I somehow feel very sleepy all of a sudden.

Where am I? I was in my room a minute ago how did I end up here? All of a sudden a giant fireball crashed before me. I was shocked as a sec late, and I would be buried underground. My legs were not listening to me as if they were telling me to run away, but I was too afraid to do so. After mobilizing some courage I looked around my surroundings. It was pitch black to see anything but somehow a way able to see. I was in a forest half green, half burned. I was astonished by the scene thinking" WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED HERE" With that thought I moved forward. After some time, I saw something extraordinary outside the forest or half the forest. There were six beasts gathered in a circle inside and were talking to the people inside the circle. Out of them, the big beast spoke" WE HAVE MANAGED TO DRIVE THEM OUT FOR NOW BUT THEY WILL COME BACK FOR REVENGE AGAINST ALL LIVING CREATURES. WE HAVE TO BE READY FOR THEM. WE DIVINE BEASTS TRUST U AND YOUR DESCENDANTS TO Harbor OUR POWER AND PROTECT ALL LIFE FORMS". The woman spoke something and somewhat looked like the leader, but I couldn't hear it and the beast suddenly looked at me. His big eyes were locked on me and slowly moved towards me. I trembled, and the beast jot got near me all of a sudden and bent towards me AND .......

I woke up With a scream, realizing it was just a dream. Hearing my scream Mom came to my room asking" WHAT HAPPENED? ARE U ALRIGHT". I gave her a nod and said it was nothing, just a dream. She examined me carefully and asked me to pray to LORD SHIVA and come downstairs for breakfast. I did exactly what she asked and after a bath, I went for breakfast. My father was reading a newspaper and my brother Aadhavan was silently eating his meal which was weird as only after pulling my leg he would eat his meal and ask if anything was wrong. He gave me a look and said "EVEN IF I HAVE I WOULDN'T TELL YOU". After hearing this Dad got angry and scolded him for the talked to me. Dad favors him the most, but things like this are not tolerated. After getting heartful he apologized, and I could see the guilt in his eyes. After this, Mom sat down and told us that she could feel some evil energy around and told Dad to go to the temple with her. As Dad had to go late he agreed. After breakfast, I went on my way to school completely forgetting about the stupid dream and the nonsense of those girls. On my way, I met my friends and reached school on time. During the assembly, I felt like somebody was watching me. I looked around and found nothing, everything was normal until I could find those weird girls. I managed to escape the eyes of the teachers and went inside the building as I was getting a feeling that something was wrong. Furthermore, I checked every room and found nothing. The last thing to check was the rooftop which was locked, but I went to check it anyway. To my surprise the door was open. It looked like something was trying to chew the door handle. I went to the rooftop but experienced a strong shock through my entire body. I was about to vomit but saw something which was much more disgusting. It was a creature I have never seen before, looked like a ghost but was some kind of monster-looking thing. It was fighting those transfer students. I don't know, but it looked like a scene from a manga where an ordinary boy was asked by some cute girls to join their team and save the world, but the only difference was it was real, it was happening in front of his eyes. Seri pulled a giant hammer out of the air like magic and attacked that thing. Lisa pulled a bow and pulled its string and shot at it. In midair, an arrow appeared and hit its target. I think Lisa was getting irritated and plucked the string for a long like she was casting a powerful spell. A big circle was cast around that thing and when she released it a big powerful beam struck him. He became an ice statue in a minute and broke into a thousand pieces. I was rubbing my eyes not believing what I saw and thought "I BETTER NOT GET ON THEIR WRONG SIDE ".

Only after their hunt, they were able to sense my presence. I was shocked but didn't show it on my face. After discussing something with each other, confused Lisa asked me "HOW ON EARTH WERE YOU ABLE TO CROSS THE BARRIER AND IS STILL SANE". I was taken aback and asked, "WHO ARE YOU GUYS REALLY? I MEAN I THOUGHT YOU WERE MESSING WITH ME, BUT THIS "Before I could finish Seri interrupted and said "NOW YOU KNOW THAT WE WERE SERIOUS. IF WE DON'T DO SOMETHING THESE THINGS WILL ATTACK EVERYWHERE AND WE COULD NOT DO ANYTHING. THAT'S WHY WE NEED YOUR HELP, YOUR POWER SO THAT WE COULD PROTECT OUR FAMILY, FRIENDS, AND OTHER LIVING CREATURE OTHERWISE" she wanted to say something but couldn't complete it. Lisa said to me "ARE YOU READY FOR THIS ?".

After thinking about it for a while I said" I WILL COME TO KYOTO BUT AFTER TAKING MY FAMILY'S PERMISSION. IF YOU CAME ALL THIS WAY TO TAKE ME, YOU MUST HAVE COME PREPARED TO ASK MY PARENTS, RIGHT?". Seri replied that I shouldn't worry about that. After that, we went to our class.

Till now I regret I didn't make that decision earlier, if I did my family could have been still alive, laughing together. I couldn't forgive myself for that and I don't think I can.....
