Revenge Of The Fallen Hero

THE PROPHESY

“ Previous one's blood will flow through him,

If not stopped he will be the cause great annihilation

A decision will have to be made

The fate of both worlds lies on it

Huge blood will be spelt for the cleansing

For he shall bring dead back to life ”

------ The Cursed Prophesy.

INTRODUCTION

“Have you ever wondered how life would be when hope has abandoned you. When you try to end your own life, very own life that belongs to you but your in such a pathetic state that your cruel life would not even allow you to do so. When you have no reason to live this life. No person, no goal, nothing to protect or cling to. When you feel even God has left you even Satan never took pity on you so as to grant a place even in hell for you……………….”

What do you think will remain alive after knowing that fate has been so cruel to you. Each and every little beloved thing that mattered to you was not just taken away but snatched in front of your very own eyes and you could do nothing about it. You were so weak that you could not even protect your very own pathetic life………….

What would you have done in his place………..

This is the story, no you could say an biography of the person who failed to protect his very own people. The people he loved, the people he cared about, the very same people that were the reason, his ambition to live. All taken away from him just because someone had a fear that he might end up getting in their way. So they decided to mercilessly temple him.

Betrayed by the person he trusted………..

Left to die……………..

Left to rot……………..

Left to suffer this wretched life alone…………

Prologue………….

What should I do! Ohhh God please help me……

Ohhh I forgot he just exists to watch others die, suffer in pain. He hears their cries but never decides to come down from his pathetic so called heaven to help others. All we weaklings can do is call for him, pray for him when we suffer in our agony. While there he sits above and watches us. I am sure he must be having some short of popcorn over there for he might just get hungry while waiting……

Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! What am I just thinking about God it’s just waste of time.

All I should think about is getting stronger, stronger, stronger, stronger, an stronger so I could avenge my loved ones, so I could avenge both of them, so I could all off them who suffered because and for me.

Everything changed after that dreadful day. I lost everything precious to me. Now I can’t even cry. They even took my tears from me. All now I could do is just watch them live their lives even without having a single hint of guilt of what they have done. I have to avenge them.

It’s time now that I head back to their grave. It’s been a long time. I need to change the flowers. Both of them would get angry if I didn’t offer them fresh flowers. Ohh I still remember their warmth, I remember her warm hands and his firm but gentle hands.

Why! Why! Why! It have to be you. Why in the world did you both have to leave me alone in this world were everybody is ready to stab you at your back.

I am done with this world from now on I will trust no one except myself. I will care for no one except myself. I will sacrifice for no one except myself. I will help no one except myself. I will show my emotions to no one except myself……….

Thinking all this I never realised that I reached the shop.

“ Excuse me I want set of white flowers make two sets each one with five flowers.”

“Here you go young man it is fifty rupees each that makes hund……. Hey man you are fast I didn’t even realise when you left and kept the money on counter”

I am not interested in wasting my time on you fool. I think to myself as I quickly keep the cash and leave without her noticing. I have to were this clock like thing whole time when I am roaming around town. This makes me feel like I am an assassin. Thinking about it I have killed many people. Well it can’t be called as killing it can be more accurately called as silent murder.

So finally I reach my destination. A lonely place near seashore. Cold sea breeze was flowing making it chilly there were dark clouds gathering. It was like silence before the storm.

Well hell yeah the storm is going to really come. There is no wonder and guess who will bring it. I will bring it a storm of king which no one has seen before like even God won’t be able to stop if he even teams up with Satan himself. I will wreak havoc I will destroy each and every soul that wronged me…….

Well before that let me greet these two people.

“Hii! There sorry I was late. How are you two doing. Sorry there is some dust gathered. Let me clean it and offer you your very favourite white flowers”

It’s just has been two years since then and it seems like ages without you two. Now my heart has been so cold that I can’t even produce tears let alone crying.

“I am leaving for the Himalayas for training. Don’t worry I won’t die. I won’t die till I give them an agonizing death. It will be so painful that their ancestors as well as their future generations will live in utter despair for what they did to you. Ahhh! I am sorry for getting so angry. But still I am being a nice boy as I promised you. I would be turning nineteen next month. Thinking this year to it will be alone……”

I must leave now take care you both Mom and Dad I still love you………

Chaos at royal court…

“It’s been one year and three hundred and forty days since he left. It’s almost two years, will he be remembering us?” says a person in a dark room with only a window for sunlight to enter.

“Yeah! I can’t say how time passed so quickly before two years we were just like three small kids and look now so much has changed. Have you ever thought what would he be doing now?”

“It was my fault I should have told him before hand about what was going to happen. If I had the courage to fight back he would have not left”

“Maybe it was or maybe it was not. No one could have done what you did in your place. You did this for greater goo”

Suddenly they hear someone approaching.

“ Princess your brother King Kali had send summons for you. He requests that you and your friend come to the royal court we have a visitor” says the maid and leaves.

“Goddam! I told my brother that I don’t want to see any marriage proposals……”

“Maybe you should start looking for someone it’s already been two years you can’t wait any further. You are the royal princess the heir to the kingdom. And because of the rule for a queen to occupy the throne is marriage you have to hurry”

“I can’t, I can’t not with anyone else I will wait for him even if it takes me years….”

“Are You are Child! You are going to become the ruler of this kingdom and you are behaving like a child. How long are you planning to throw this tantrum of yours! You possibly can’t wait for him this long. Who now’s weather he is alive or not……”

“Mind your language! Commander Aman. Even though you are a childhood friend I can’t accept anything against him!”

“Sorry for my sudden outrage but when you act foolishly I can’t control. I am leaving” saying this he leaves the princess alone to her thoughts in the dark room.

“Maybe you are right ……….. But I can’t forget him.

Where are you what are you doing have you forgotten us, does our existence even matter to you?”

She then gets dressed feeling nostalgic about the memories that haunt her till today. The next heir to the kingdom Princess Ananya gets ready to leave for the royal court where her future is going to be decided. She now seems to get the concept. It’s better to accept ones fate rather than to fight it and change it. Because trying to change it will only bring damage to one very own existence.

But…. How can she forget the warmth of his touch still that lingers in chest?

The royal court was huge in terms of its size. The sear complexity of its design is an mystery because for the protection of king it is designed in such a way that when there is an sudden assault from the front then the assaulters will need at least one and a half minute to reach where they king throne is. This time limit helps the royal family to escape through secret tunnel behind the throne.

But If the attackers are archers even then it would be impossible to shoot an arrow straight at the throne because due to special ventilation system .

There is continuous stream of air blowing through the middle of the court so it would be impossible for an arrow to hit it’s target.

“Welcome my dear sister. Please have a seat………” the king tries his best to calm down his raging sister.

(Ohh! Man today she going to create hell…..Dad where are you) thinks King Kali.

“Cut the crap out. Tell me the reason for you to summon me”

‘She’s really ruthless man!’ royal court members begin chatting but no-one dares to say it loud in front of her.

‘Yeah it maybe because she is his highness sister so she could do so if anyone of us tried this we very to be executed immediately' whispers another member.

(Why is my own sister like this to me God? Father were are you I need your help. It’s because of you! You pampered her so much that she is like this now…… Someone help me) poor King Kali thinking in his mind.

King Kali slightly looks at supreme commander Lord Aman for help in this painful situation. Lucky for him commander knows what he has to do.

(Yeah this person will help me! Commander this is your right time to show your loyalty to me. He He He He!)

(Yeah sure your highness. I can totally understand your situation. We both are invincible team Kali. Ha Ha Ha Ha!)

Both talk to each other only through gestures.

“Excuse me princess. The reason for calling you so sudden is the serious matter of the Old King Faction. It seems that they are trying to expand their territory by shady means. The now have already capture and isolated the northern and southern frontier of our kingdom. Though these regions are strategically less important to us but they are now trying to capture the western frontier also” explains Supreme Commander Aman trying to change the topic.

“Yeah! That’s a serious matter we possibly can’t do anything now as they have sabotaged both the region and quarantined them by destroying all the bridges and tunnels connecting them to main kingdom.” The King explains.

“Though the area under their control is less than thirteen percent of total kingdom. But if they keep at this rate of capturing new land it would soon end up to forty maybe sixty percent of total land” says one of the ministers.

“So what is the reason for summoning me here. It is not possible for my dear brother to listen to my suggestions” says princess sarcastically.

Ananya had always been trying to explain her brother to carry out a campaign to reclaim the lost land but due to some reason he never would listen.

“The main problem here is that Old King Faction knows that after me you are going to be next heir to the royal throne. So according to intelligence reports they are trying to abduct you and force in negotiations or even threaten. As you know there were previous attempts for your assassination so I have………”

“No need brother you and I both know that previous royal bodyguards were killed every time an attempt happened. The are to naïve to be my guards. So no need I can take care of myself. I am leaving…..”

Strange Entrance.…..

“My! My! Princess sure has an attitude problem. It seems interesting” everyone in the court hears a

strange voice.

Then a man enters. He’s wearing a black clock-like thing a spear at his back a knife at his waist and a small pocket knife at his ankle. He has a mysterious murderous aura around him. As if he has a lust for killing.

‘Who is this person?’

‘How does he dare to enter the royal court during the meeting!’

‘Also how dare he addresses the royal princess with such rudeness!’

Ministers start to chatter among themselves.

“Who the hell are you bastard! How dare you speak in such a tone. Don’t you know I am the princess and this is a royal court. You could be executed immediately….…”

Suddenly for a flick of moment this stranger disappears. Next moment everybody see him in front of princess. So close there’s just a millimetre of gap between them. Everyone is amazed by just the sear amount of speed.

“How dare you! You bastard get away from princess you filthy creature. Delay a second and your head will be chopped away and rolling down.”

Shouts commander preparing for an attack on the sudden enemy.

As he is about to attack the stranger something extraordinary happens.

Commander is stopped dead in his tracks it’s as if his legs are not willing to move but his brain is commanding them to move.

“What have you done trickster! If you are a man, face me head on!”

“How annoying dear princess Ananya is everybody in your kingdom like him? Does everybody march at their guests like this? Before I was entering the guard behaved like this and look they are down now!” says the stranger now just a breath away from the face of princess.

(So close. His smell is just like his. Who is he? Why am I not feeling like I am in danger even though he has such a murderous aura around him. I…..I can’t escape his gaze….) mind of princess is unable to accept this reality.

“Now that we all have meet each other let me introduce myself. My name is Arjun. There is no need for any other info. I am here on the order of the King to be your bodyguard my dear Ananya”

“You bastard who gave you the permission to call princess by her name. Let me just be free and then I will teach you a lesson” says Aman now bubbling with wrath.

“Stop calling me bastard you dumbass! I have a name and that happens to be Arjun, you could call me daddy if you want me to forgive you for your mistake!” stranger mocking the Commander.

There was an sudden uproar in the court. Who the hell is this guy and how can he act so casually in front of the King and he even almost assaulted the princess. No to forget that he even insulted commander the most ruthless man in the kingdom. Each and every court member is thinking the same.

(Why! Why! Does this feel familiar? Its as if he has returned but that’s not possible he left two years ago and then there was rumour that he died during so mishap. Only he called me like this) the mind of commander was now lost in a trail of thoughts.

“Calm down everyone there’s no need to panic. It’s me who has summoned him. He will be the royal guard for princess from now on” said King in a clear voice.

(Why…Why! This fools don’t understand to keep quiet. He is not a person to mess around!) King thinking.

“But Sir he tried to violate princess and this crime can’t be ignored….”

“SHUT UP YOUR PATHETIC MOUTH! This is the way I work if you have any problem then get lost from here” Arjun suddenly changed his tone. The scale of his voice was nerve-wrecking. Most of the ministers sat in dreadful silence.

Then most unexpected person broke the silence.

“Brother I don’t think this person can even protect me I can’t even see his face. Let alone he has a mysterious aura around him”

“Don’t worry princess I am more capable than any other person present in your kingdom at present. I am even more capable than your commander who is currently standing like a statue. Ohhh! Wait I forgot to unfreeze you commander”

Snap! The stranger snapped his fingers and then commander was able to move. No one knew how it happened but it seemed that he was the one controlling this magic.

“Arjun you have been accommodated in the royal quarters. Your stuff will be moved soon. From tomorrow you must accompany princess where ever she goes. You must be her shadow. I grant you the permission as a King to annihilate anyone who dares to harm her. You will face no trial. You can directly ask me anything you need”

“I don’t need your permission to kill anyone no one here is capable enough to touch me let alone kill me. Leaving this matter I request my quarter to be shifted besides princess so that I could always keep an eye on her. Also I have I question as to weather I have to protect her even in the human realm or is it only in your Underworld kingdom?.......”

Everyone was silent till now but after what he said there was commotion among everyone. Whatever he did till now was somewhat acceptable but making a bold move by directly asking for private quarter besides princess was unacceptable.

“Brat you are trying your luck! Who do you think you are? You aren’t even an high class devil or anything else. You even don’t have royal blood within you. How dare you even raise your head in front of us!” said a minister unable to control his anger anymore.

( Damm! Minister don’t blame me if you die here!) King knew what was going to happen.

Boom!

What happened next no one had expected!

The minister was knocked out of his chair and lie on the floor. Everything happened all of a sudden in a blink of eye.

The minister himself was not aware how was he reduced to this pathetic state.

“Stop on your tracts!” shouted commander Aman.

“SHUT UP YOU BASTARD! WHO GAVE YOU THE PERMISSION TO SPEAK TO ME IN SUCH A TONE! If it was not for royal court I would have not hesitated to kill you with my bare hands” shouted Arjun in an thunderous voice.

His voice echoed in entire court room.

Boom!

Now he stood face to face to the commander.

“And for commander Aman! Don’t try to cross my path or else you won’t even know what happened to you in any moment. Even if you were an old friend I would have not left you understand that! I have no fucking interest in you or your baby princess I am here only to do my job and taking gold with me is my only objective here………”

“Calm down Arjun! It’s ok it’s not your fault it was just commander Aman, he is duty bound to the throne and princess. And as for your request it will be granted…….” King tries to calm the situation.

“Brother you can’t possibly let a stranger live beside me. I still haven’t seen his face. Everything till now we have seen how unpredictable he is.

How can I trust a person whose face I don’t know”

“Don’t worry Ananya my dear sister. He is indeed most suitable for this job or else I would have not hand picked him for you.” Lord Kali trying his hard to explain his younger sister.

( I know how unpredictable he is. After all much has changed since two years. The most capable men are always unpredictable. Ha Ha Ha Ha! This is going to be interesting no fascinating!) King knew something that others didn’t knew.

“You don’t need to worry princess when time will be right my true identity will be revealed. And for your convenience I am going to stay in another room not in your own and rest assured I won’t even have a peep on you I have the least interest in you. Lord Kali I need to leave now it’s already late”

Before leaving Arjun glares at the minister who is still lying terrified on the floor not knowing how and when what happened to him. Arjun bows low and speak in the ears of the minister,

“**Never mess with me in your life**!”
