Episode 19
Green messenger
Chaar din guzr chuke thay field test ke baad.
Sikandar apni rozmarrah ki routine mai masroof tha—workout, class attend karna, aur kabhi-kabhi random logon se larna. Field test jaisi cheez ke bina us ka level up karna aise tha jaise kachue ki raftaar.
Abhi Sikandar apni class mai baitha Mr. Joseph ka lecture sun raha tha. Aaj woh din tha jab students ko woh chaar cursed creatures ke baare mai bataya ja raha tha jinhain dekh kar bachna zaroori hai—kyunke future mai unka samna ho bhi sakta hai.
Mr. Joseph ne bar bar yaad dilaya ke “in creatures se larne ki koshish na karna, chahe tum kitne bhi powerful kyu na ho”.
Students ne aik awaaz mai jawab diya:
“Yes, Mr. Joseph!”
Mr. Joseph ne digital board par likhna shuru kiya aur bola:
“Jab Supernatural duniya mai ubharay, to sirf wohi cheezen nahi aayi balkay curses bhi zinda ho gaye. Isi liye tumhein in chaar sabse khatarnaak malisons ke baare mai seekhna hoga. Hum inhein kehte hain ‘Four Malison of Terror.’”
Classroom mai khamoshi chha gayi, sab ki saansain ruki hui si lag rahi thi.
Mr. Joseph ne ek ek karke unhein samjhaya:
1. Forsaken Man – Aik aisa creature jo apni aura se insan ko turant hypnotize kar deta hai aur banda khudkushi par majboor ho jata hai.
2. Damned Quadruplets – Dryad ki Queen aur aik Incubus ke beech paida hone wali nasl. Yeh creatures Nature, Earth, Poison aur Water ko dark energy ke sath control karte hain.
3. White Werewolf – Forbidden love ka nateeja. Yeh aam werewolf se teen guna zyada taqatwar aur zyadatar magic se immune hote hain.
4. Witch of Neutrality – Aik purani jadugarni jo Dark aur Holy dono magics mai mahir hai. Woh insano ko curse karti hai aur Supernatural ko bless.
Students ke chehron par khauf saaf nazar aane laga.
Tabhi Laura ne haath uthaya:
“Sir, inhein harane ka tareeqa kya hai? Aur sabse zyada kis se bachna chahiye?”
Mr. Joseph ka chehra bohot serious ho gaya. Us ne gehri saans li aur kaha:
“Unhein harane ka sirf aik tareeqa hai—unke curse ka asal pata lagana. Aur… jab samna ho to bhaagna. Hamesha bhaagna.”
Ye sunkar students ki rooh kaanp gayi. Matlab ke even high-ranking Awakened bhi unhein seedha defeat nahi kar sakta!
RINGGG!!!
Bell baj gayi. Class khatam ho gayi.
Sikandar apni cheezen samet raha tha ke Mr. Joseph us ke paas aaya, aur dheemi awaaz mai kaha:
“Woh aayega… taiyar rehna.”
Sikandar ne hairan hokar apne seene par bane tattoo ko chhua.
“Kya woh green messenger ki baat kar raha hai…?” us ne socha.
Ye baat uske zehan mai chalti rahi lekin usne apne dimaag se hattane ki koshish ki.
Jab woh class se nikal raha tha, usne dekha ke Laura saamne ladkhada rahi hai, us ka chehra safed pad gaya tha.
Achanak Laura girne lagi, lekin Sikandar ne foran daud kar use pakad liya.
“Laura! Tum theek ho?”
Magar Laura be-hosh thi, uska jism garam aur kapkapi mai tha.
Clinic ki taraf daurte hue Sikandar ne mehsoos kiya ke Laura ki peeth par ek ajeeb si garam nishan hai—jaise koi scar jaltay huye tapak raha ho.
Usi waqt system notification aya:
<Laura is suffering from a disease, her mana is deteriorating and so is her body>
Sikandar ka chehra pareshani se bhar gaya.
“Ye to bohot khatarnaak hai!”
Woh aur tez bhaaga aur clinic mai ghus kar cheekha:
“Doctor! Please meri dost ki madad kijiye!”
Aik boodha doctor foran aaya aur Laura ki pulse check ki.
Sikandar ne ghabra kar kaha:
“Woh achanak behosh ho gayi… mujhe samajh nahi aya kya hua.”
Doctor ne mana se hath roshan karke healing try ki, magar kuch farq nahi pada.
Usne Sikandar ki taraf dekha aur kaha:
“Main aur gehri check karunga, tum bahar intizaar karo.”
Sikandar ne Laura ko nazar bhar ke dekha aur phir bahar aa gaya.
Woh apna phone nikal kar Tom ka number search karne laga, lekin nahi mila. Tabhi usne Laura ka bag check kiya—shukar hai Tom ka number emergency call mai saved tha.
Sikandar ne number milaya, kuch der baad Tom ne call uthai.
"Sister, kya scene hai?", Tom ne aam si ada mein kaha.
Sikandar ne sanjeeda lehje mein jawab diya:
"Tom, foran clinic aajao… tumhari behen be-hosh ho gayi hai."
Yeh sunte hi Tom gusse se chillaya:
"TUMNE KYA KIYA?!"
Sikandar ne zoor dete hue zubaan click ki aur kaha:
"Bakwas band karo aur pehle clinic aajao, phir rona dhona kar lena."
Aur call kaat di.
Clinic ke andar baithe hue, Sikandar ke zehan mein sawal ghoom rahe the.
"Hamesha toh Laura theek lagti thi… phir achanak kya hua? Upar se woh hamesha thandi, beparwah shakal banati hai, lekin andar se toh shayad kaafi kamzor hai."
Kuch hi der baad, das minute ke andar Tom bhaagte hue clinic pohoncha.
"Kahan hai woh?!", usne sikandar se tikhay lehje mein poocha.
Jawab na milne par usne gusse mein Sikandar ka collar pakad liya.
Sikandar ne bilkul thande lehje mein uski ungliyan hatate hue kaha:
"Shaant ho jao. Woh achanak be-hosh ho gayi thi, is liye main usse yahan le aaya."
Yeh sun kar Tom ka chehra fikar mein badal gaya. Uski shakial ulajhan aur dukh donon bayan kar rahi thi.
Sikandar ne Tom ko ghur kar dekha aur kaha:
"Tumhein uski bimari ke bare mein pata hai na?"
Tom chup ho gaya. Woh bas idhar udhar ghoomta raha jaise ulti aa rahi ho.
Sikandar ko yaad aaya woh gehra zakham jo usne Laura ki peeth par mehsoos kiya tha.
"Yeh daag toh kisi panje ya talon ka lagta hai," usne socha.
Phir usne Tom ko uljhan mein dalne ke liye casually kaha:
"Toh apni behen ki hifazat karne mein tum hi fail hue na?"
Tom ke mathe ki nasen ubhar gayi, usne gusse se Sikandar ki taraf dekha aur cheekh kar bola:
"Yeh meri ghalti nahi thi! Woh saala werewolf achanak aa gaya tha aur…."
Usne foran apna mooh band kar liya, jaise anjaane mein raaz khol baitha ho.
Sikandar ki aankhen tez chamak uthi:
"Werewolf? Sab kuch batao!"
Tom ne gehri saans li aur rona shuru ho gaya:
"Yeh bohot pehle ki baat hai… jab hum chhote the. Hum family trip par gaye the, jab achanak ek toofan ki tarah werewolves ne hamla kar diya. Dad aur Mom ne humein bacha liya… lekin ek ghathak werewolf ne pichhe se Laura par hamla kar diya aur uski peeth ko chhil diya. Hum zinda bach gaye… lekin uske nishan se ek bemari shuru ho gayi jise doctors ‘Wolf Rash’ kehte hain. Yeh andar hi andar uske jism aur uski mana ko kha rahi hai. Doctors ne keh diya tha ke woh apni beeswi saal ki umr se aage nahi jee payegi."
Aansoon Tom ke gaalon par beh rahe the.
"Laura ne kabhi nahi chaha ke tumhein is baat ka pata chale. Isi liye usne tumse doori banai aur hamesha sakht alfaz boli. Main tumhe kabhi pasand nahi karta tha… lekin main janta hoon ke Laura tumhari fikar karti hai," Tom ne neeche nazar karte hue kaha.
Sikandar ka dil jhatka khakar rah gaya.
"Toh yeh sab doori sirf is liye thi ke mujhe dukh na ho? Tum kitni khudgarz ho… apni jaan ki fikar chhodo, mujhe bachaane ka sochti rahi?"
Uski aankhen bhar aayi, lekin usne foran aansoon poch liye.
Darwaze ki taraf dekhte hue usne socha:
"Laura… tumhe har haal mein zinda rehna hoga."
Usne system se poocha:
"System, Wolf Rash ka ilaaj hai?"
System ka jawab aaya:
<Wolf Rash ka ilaaj sirf ek cheez se ho sakta hai — Werewolf ka khoon aur Purified Water ka mixture. Lekin jitni badi taqat ka fark hoga, utna zyada Purified Water chahiye hoga.>
"Purified Water…" Sikandar ne turant shop khol kar search kiya.
Usne dekha ke ek sau gold ka sirf 100ml milta hai.
Usne foran 500ml kharid liya — aur uski gold balance zero ho gayi.
Bottle inventory mein transfer hui toh usne Tom ke kandhe par haath rakha aur kaha:
"Main usse bachaane ki koshish karoonga."
Tom ne hiraan ho kar kaha:
"Kya… tum waqai kar sakte ho?!"
Sikandar ne sirf sar hila diya aur doctor ke kamre ki taraf barh gaya.
Darwaze ke saamne ruk kar usne gehri saans li aur dil mein dua ki:
"Laura… chahe kuch bhi ho, tumhe jeena hoga!"
---
Sikandar ne himmat jamaa ki aur darwazay par dastak di.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Andar se doctor ki awaaz aayi,
"Meherbani karke sabar karein."
Yeh sunkar Sikandar ne faisla kiya ke doctor ko pehle check karne de, uske baad hi wo system ki salahiyat azmaayega.
Wo Tom ke paas sofa par baith gaya. Garmi-e-jazbaat mein, jab system ne usay Laura ka ilaaj bataya tha, Sikandar ne bina soche samjhe foran azmaane ka socha tha. Lekin ab baith kar uska dimaag thoda saaf hua.
“Agar yeh kaam na hua toh? Koi guarantee nahi ke yeh kaam karega. Aur agar system sahi bhi hai, kya meri taaqat itni kafi hogi ke main is zehar ko khatam kar saku? Ek aam werewolf ki minimum rank 5 hoti hai, aur main abhi us level se bohot door hoon. Mere jaise insaan ko toh ek werewolf pal mein cheer kar rakh dega…” Sikandar ne socha, uska dil bhar bhar ke shak mein doob gaya.
Usne system se poocha,
"System, agar meri taaqat kafi na hui toh kya hoga?"
<System ka jawab aaya: “Agar sabse kamzor werewolf ne bhi usay zakhmi kiya hai, toh tumhari kamiyabi ke chances sirf 30% hain. Agar tum fail ho gaye, toh purified blood sirf temporary asar karega.”>
Sikandar ne gehri saans li,
“Sirf tees feesad… Lekin agar main fail bhi hua, toh 500ml purified blood shayad itna kafi hoga ke tab tak waqt mil jaye jab tak main aur taqatwar ban kar asal sehar ko khatam kar saku.”
Wo ab aur zyada pur-azm ho gaya.
Bee’s minute ke intezaar ke baad doctor ka kamra khula.
Doctor un dono ke paas aaya aur bhari saans le kar bola,
"Us ki haalat intihayi nazuk hai. Uske zakhm se lagta hai ke jis creature ne usay mara hai uske ander koi ajeeb bacteria ya zehar hai jo dheere dheere uske ander ke azaa ko galata jaa raha hai."
Sikandar aur Tom ne gehri saans li, jaise dono ko pehle se andaza tha.
Doctor ka shukriya ada karke unho ne ijazat li ke Laura ko ghar le jaayen.
---
Dono Laura ko gaari mein lekar Frostbrand Mansion pohanch gaye.
Ochyra University se Mansion sirf aik ghante ke faaslay par tha. Tom ne raat ka safar tay karte hue bataya ke unke walidain ne Dupok City ke raid ke baad kaisi mushkilat jheli aur akhirkar is sheher mein apna ghar kharid liya.
Ratmawati City ko 5 sectors mein taqseem kiya gaya tha. Jitna center ke qareeb, utna hi aala darja Awakened log rehte thay. Frostbrand Mansion 3rd sector mein tha — jo ke aam logon ke liye waise hi aik badi baat thi.
Mansion bohot shandar tha. Bhoora rang, uncha darwaza, baray baray pillars jo usay riyasati shaan dete thay. Bagiche mein rang barange phool khile thay aur darwazay ke ooper ek chamakti hui paani ki gol gend lutf utha rahi thi, jaise aasman ka chand neeche aa gaya ho.
Sikandar ne Laura ko kandhon par uthaya aur Tom ke saath darwazay ki taraf chala.
Darwaza khula aur ek khatoon saamne aayi. Sunahri bal, neeli aankhein aur chand jaisi roshan shakal. Wo Laura aur Tom ki maa thi — Marcella Frostbrand.
Usne cheekh kar kaha:
"Hai God ! Ye kya ho gaya meri beti ko?!"
Tom ne ghusse se dabay huye lehje mein kaha,
"Mom… uski haalat aur bigarr gayi hai."
Marcella ki aankhon se aansoo behne lage. Tabhi Laura ke walid, Silas Frostbrand, bhi aa gaye.
"Yeh sab kya ho raha hai?!" unho ne ghabrahat se poocha.
Marcella ka chehra laal ho gaya, usne ghusse mein Silas ki taraf dekh kar cheekh kar kaha,
"Agar us waqt tum zara si bhi ehtiyaat karte toh meri beti aaj iss haalat mein na hoti!"
Silas ne aansoon bharay chehre ke saath kaha,
"Mujhse ghalti hui hai! Main maanta hoon…"
Tab unki nazar Sikandar par padi.
"Tum kaun ho?"
Sikandar ne halka sa muskuraya,
"Mera naam Sikandar hai. Shayad aap bhool gaye ho, lekin ho sakta hai ke main Laura ki madad kar saku."
Yeh sunkar Marcella ne foran Sikandar ke kandhay pakar liye,
"Kya tum waqai usay bachaa sakte ho? Mujhe kuch bhi kehna, main kuch bhi ada karne ko tayar hoon!"
Tom ne bechaini mein kaha,
"Mom… pehle andar chalain."
---
Laura ko kamray mein lita kar, sab log drawing room mein baith gaye.
Silas ne pehla sawal poocha,
"Tom keh raha tha ke tumhare paas koi tareeqa hai? Kya waqai tum meri beti ko bacha sakte ho?"
Marcella bechaini se boli,
"Meharbani karke usay bacha lo! Mujhe paison ki parwaah nahi!"
Sikandar ne gehri saans le kar kaha,
"Mere paas ek tareeqa hai… lekin main 100% yakeeni nahi keh sakta."
Silas foran bola,
"Jo bhi tareeqa hai humein batao, hum duniya ke behtareen doctors se usay apply karwa lenge!"
Sikandar ne sar hila kar kaha,
"Yeh procedure sirf main kar sakta hoon. Agar main na karun, toh Laura ko bachana mumkin nahi."
Silas ne gusse mein table par haath mara, glass toot gaya.
"Tum jaisa ek larka kaise meri beti ko bacha sakta hai jab doctors bhi fail ho gaye?!"
Sikandar ki aankhon mein sardi si chamak aayi.
"Mr. Frostbrand… yeh kehne ka sabab yeh nahi ke tareeqa kaam nahi karega, balke asal wajah yeh hai ke meri apni taaqat abhi kafi nahi. Magar phir bhi, main hi woh shaks hoon jo is tareeqe ko anjam de sakta hai. Agar aap chahte hain ke aapki beti zinda rahe… toh yeh baat qubool karna hogi."
Marcella ne Silas ka haath mazbooti se pakad liya, uski aankhon mein khauf tha.
Silas ne gusse ko daba kar gahri saans li,
"Theek hai… agar tum waqai meri beti ko bacha sakte ho, toh koshish karo. Lekin yaad rakhna… agar tumne koi chal chali toh main tumhe chhodunga nahi!"
Before Silas can finish his words, Sikandar intervenes,
"Behtareen, dhamki dene ki zarurat nahi hai, mujhe pehle hi pata hai kya hone wala hai," usne kaha aur seedha Laura ke kamray ki taraf chal diya.
Bam!
Jaise hi Laura ka darwaza band hua, Frostbrand khandaan khamosh ho gaya. Unke chehron par ghabrahat aur bechaini dono barabar thi.
Kamre ke andar, Sikandar ne Laura ki taraf dekha jo bistar par dard se karah rahi thi.
Wo uske paas gaya, bistar ke kinare beth kar socha,
“System, kaise karna hai yeh?”
System ne jawab diya,
<User ko bas apne kuch qatre khoon ke Purified Water mein milane hain, aur phir us mix ko zakhm par lagana hai.>
Yeh sunkar Sikandar ne Purified Water summon kiya.
Uske samne paanch vial chamak uthi. Usne sab ko ek bartan mein dal diya aur apni hath ki finger par ek halki si cut lagai.
Drip! Drip!
Khoon ke qatre paani mein gir gaye. Usne dono ko mix karna shuru kiya. Do minute baad, safed pani dhundhla sa grey ban gaya.
System ki tasdeeq aane ke baad, Sikandar ne dheere se Laura ki upper shirt kholi.
Laura ka narm, safed jism saamne aaya jis par ek pal ke liye uska gala sukh gaya.
“Abhi is waqt yeh sab sochne ka nahi hai,” usne apne aap ko sambhala.
Usne Laura ko dheere se palta aur uske peeth par gahra claw wound dekha. Zakham ke aas paas neela-pan aur corrode ho rahi skin dekh kar dil dahal gaya.
Sikandar ne purified blood us zakham par malna shuru kiya. Dheere dheere zakham ka neela rang kam hone laga, dard bhi halki si kam hui, lekin zakham puri tarah se band nahi hua.
Achanak ek system notification saamne aayi,
<Method fail ho gaya hai. User aur Werewolf ke darmiyan strength gap bohot zyada hai. Purified Blood sirf temporary solution hoga.>
Sikandar ne gehri saans bhari,
“Jaise andaza tha, farq bohot zyada hai…”
Usne Laura ki shirt dobara set ki aur dekha ke ab Laura dard mein nahi hai. Thoda sukoon mila aur wo kamre se bahar nikal aaya.
Darwaza khulte hi Marcella daudi aayi, uske sath Tom aur Silas bhi the.
Marcella ne ghabrahat se poocha,
“Kya hua? Kaamyaab hua?”
Sikandar ne thakawat bhari saans le kar jawab diya,
“Meri power kafi nahi thi… main sirf temporary unka dard kam kar saka hoon. Lekin fikr mat karo, main tumhari beti ko zaroor theek karunga.”
Usne woh bartan jisme purified blood tha Marcella ke hawale kiya.
Frostbrand khandaan ne chain ki saans li. Kam az kam Laura ki cheekhein band ho gayi thi aur uska chehra sukoon mai tha.
---
Raat ka waqt aaya.
Sikandar Frostbrand mansion chhod kar bahar nikal chuka tha. Ab wo Adhara ke sath sheher ki chhat par baitha tha.
Adhara chandni ko dekh kar muskurayi,
“Ahh… chaandni ke neeche bethna kitna acha lagta hai.”
Sikandar hansi rok na saka,
“Bhool gayi? Tum ab ek Werewolf ho.”
Adhara bhi hans padi, lekin phir use yaad aaya,
“Oh haan! Waise Rosie tumhe poore din dhoondti rahi… tum to bilkul ghaib hi ho gaye the.”
Sikandar ne halki si saans chorhi,
“Personal matter tha.”
Adhara ne nakhrey se mooh banaya,
“Hamesha secrets kyu rakhte ho? Hum team nahi hain kya?”
Sikandar ne gambheer lehje mein kaha,
“Team nahi… hum ek family hain.”
Adhara ka chehra lal ho gaya. Uske dimagh mein ajeeb khayalat ghoom gaye,
“Family? Kya wo… hehe…” usne dil mein muskurate hue socha.
Sikandar uske ajeeb reaction se uljha hua tha ke achanak kisi ne uske haath ko chu liya.
Wo aur Adhara dono peeche kood gaye aur saamne ek anjaan shaks ko dekha.
Sikandar ke hosh udd gaye,
“Kya?! Main iski presence bhi mehsoos nahi kar paaya…”
Woh aadmi kala libaas pehne hue tha, chehre par crow mask aur uski presence lagbhag gayab thi.
Wo dheere se bola,
“Nice reflex… tumhein reflex ki koi gifted ability hai kya?”
Sikandar ne uspar teekhi nazar dali,
“Tum ho kaun?”
Us shaks ke mask se hara dhuaan nikalne laga. Usne mask thoda upar uthaya aur tez haryali bhari aankhein chamki.
Sirf uski nazar se hi Sikandar aur Adhara ke jism bhojhal ho gaye, jaise taqat chhin gayi ho.
Woh muskara kar bola,
“Itni jaldi? Chalo koi baat nahi… tum mujhe Prof. K keh sakte ho. Lekin shayad tum mujhe zyada ache se jaante ho, as the… Green Messenger.”
---
"Hasty howe. Kher, koi farq nahi parta... tum bachay mujhe Prof. K keh saktay ho, lekin shayad tum mujhe... Green Messenger ke naam se bhi jaantay ho," woh shaks samajh hi nahi aa raha tha ke asal mai hai kya. Na uske jism se koi elemental energy nikal rahi thi, na hi koi unusual vibes, lekin jo dabao aur pressure uske hone se mehsoos ho raha tha, us se Sikandar aur Adhara ko yaqeen ho gaya ke yeh aadmi aam nahi hai.
‘Green Messenger? Kya yeh wahi shaks hai jiska zikr Mr. Joseph ne kiya tha?’ Sikandar ne socha. Usne barikhi se woh lafz yaad kiye jo Joseph ne class mai bole thay:
"Sab se andheray raat mai, jab hawa sard ho jaye, ek sabz paighaam denay wala tumharay saamne aaye ga. Uski aankhein zehr jesi sabz hongi, uski skin vampires se bhi zyada fehmi hogi… woh tumhe dhoondhne aaye ga… tayyar rehna."
Green Messenger ne un dono ki taraf dekha. Mask hone ke bawajood Sikandar ko mehsoos hua jaise uski nigah seedha uske andar ghus rahi ho.
Sikandar ne turant system se uske stats dekhne ki koshish ki:
<Green Messenger>
<Stats>
Unidentified
Sikandar ke hosh udd gaye.
"Yeh pehli dafa hai ke main kisi ka stats hi nahi dekh pa raha… normally agar koi high-rank hota hai to system kam az kam unki power aur naam dikhata hai. Lekin yeh… yeh to bilkul khali hai!"
Green Messenger ne apna qadd seedha kiya aur muskuraya:
"Chalo dekhte hain tum dono mai kitna dum hai."
Usne apni ungli uthayi aur Sikandar aur Adhara ki taraf ishara kiya. Dono ne apna guard utha liya, attack expect kar rahe thay.
Flick!
Ek seedhi si ungli chalayi… lekin phir:
WHOOSH!
Ungli ke flick se do safed concentrate beams niklein jo hawa chheer kar seedha unpar aayi.
Sikandar ko dodge karne ka waqt hi nahi mila – beam seedha uske seene par lagi aur woh peeche ki taraf ghisak gaya.
"Ahhh!" usne apna seena pakda, dard tez tha.
Dusri taraf, Adhara ne aik dum apna jism twist kar ke woh attack bachaa liya.
Green Messenger ne hans kar kaha, "Ohh, to tum speed mai gifted ho. Theek hai, ek aur koshish karte hain."
Phir se usne ungli chalayi aur white beams chhod di.
Is dafa Sikandar tayyar tha:
"Force Beam!"
Usne apne andar ki taqat jamaa ki aur aik chamakti safed beam chhod di.
BANG!!
Dono beams takraye aur dhamakay ki wajah se tez hawa charo taraf fail gayi.
Sikandar ne chaaron taraf dekha – jo students rooftop pe bethay relax kar rahe thay… woh sab be-hosh zameen par pare thay!
"Yeh… yeh to sab ko pehle se hi knock out kar chuka hai aur mujhe pata bhi nahi chala… meri sense kabhi fail nahi hoti… yeh shaks to kisi aur level ka hai!" Sikandar ne hairani se socha.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
"Shandar! Tum strength mai gifted ho. Tumne to Force ka ek jhalak bhi samajh liya hai. Waqai qabil-e-tareef!" Green Messenger ne khushi se kaha.
Phir usne Adhara ki taraf dekha, "Aur tum… tum na sirf speed mai gifted ho, balkeh tum ek Fire Elementalist bhi ho."
Adhara ka jism laal roshni se chamak utha, usne apna fire element activate kar diya.
Sikandar ne gusse mai apni shirt khol kar seene par bani tattoo dikhayi, "Yeh kya hai?! Mujhe sab kuch samjhao!"
Green Messenger ne halki si nigah daali, "To tum Sikandar Silverstar ho… woh shaks jise Dwight City ke do medals of honor mile, ek hero."
Usne apne haath phailaye aur kaha, "Tumhe hamari organization ne choose kiya hai… aur main yahan tumhari testing ke liye aya hoon."
Sikandar ne bhawen charhakar tikhay lehje mai kaha, "Aur agar main choose nahi hona chahta to? Agar main mana kar doon to?"
Green Messenger zor se hansne laga, "HAHAHA… waqt aane par tumhe khud samajh aa jayega. Filhal yeh lo."
Usne aik injection Sikandar ki taraf phenka.
Sikandar ne usay pakra – andar ek kali si substance thi jo badi suspicious lag rahi thi.
"Ye kya hai?" Sikandar ne sawaal kiya.
Green Messenger ne apna sar thoda jhuka kar muskuraya, "Kyun na try karo? Shayad zeher hai… ya phir tumhari taqat barhane ka naya tareeqa. Jo bhi ho, mera kaam yahin tak tha."
Yeh keh kar Green Messenger ne apne jism ko hari dhuan mai lapet liya aur aik dum hawa mai ghayab ho gaya.
Sikandar aur Adhara ne apna guard neeche kar liya, aur thaki hui saans le kar beth gaye.
Adhara ne shak se kaha, "Tumhe mujhe sab kuch samjhana hoga."
Sikandar ne bas ek wry smile di aur sab kuch Adhara ko bata diya.
Adhara ne ghour se suna aur phir dheemi aawaz mai boli,
"Main ne lecturers se ek dafa suna tha… ek organization ka naam. Stygian Crow Organization. Kehte hain woh Ochyra University ke dushman hain… asal mai woh saare Awakened ke khilaf hain."
Sikandar ne hairani se poocha, "Lekin kyun? Aakhir woh sabke dushman kyun hain?"
Adhara ne sochnay ke liye thodi dair thodi ko hath lagaya, phir lecturer ki baatein yaad karte hue boli,
“Shayad mujhe sahi yaad hai… woh log jo Awakened nahi hote lekin power hasil karne ke liye body enhancement ka sahara lete hain…”
Adhara se kuch dair guftagu karne ke baad, Sikandar apne kamray ki taraf wapas chala gaya.
Jese hi andar aaya, woh thakan aur dard se bistar par gir gaya.
‘Yeh Green Messenger bhi na… itna zor se kyun maara mujhe!’ usne dil hi dil mein socha.
Bistar par letay huye usay yaad aaya ke uske paas abhi bhi 5 Skill Upgrade Points bache huye hain jo abhi tak use nahi kiye.
Usne foran system khola aur apne stats check kiye:
---
<Stats>
Naam: Sikandar Silverstar
Pack: Silverstar (1/2)
Level: 11 (5290/8900)
Race: Werewolf
Full-Moon: 19 Din – Dark Moon
Berserk: 60%
Sanity: 50%
Mental: 36 (+2)
Strength: 35 (+5)
Agility: 21 (+1)
Endurance: 23 (+4)
Intelligence: 0
Attributable Stats: 0
<Normal insano ke paas 5-7 points hote hain har stat mein, Intelligence ke siwa>
---
Pichlay kuch dino mein, Sikandar ne apne stats zyada tar Mental par lagaye the. Kuch students jo use chhedte the unse ladai bhi ki, aur dheere dheere sab usse door rehne lage kyonke woh unke liye bohot strong tha. Jab fight milti hi nahi thi to woh khud kisi se panga le leta tha sirf Exp hasil karne ke liye.
Gold bhi use ladai se milta raha. Usay laga tha ke Laura ki wajah se uska gold khatam ho gaya hoga, lekin check karte hi maloom hua ke uske paas 390 Gold bacha hua hai.
System kehta tha ke level 10 ke baad hi gold ka use mumkin hai. To yeh gold Skeletons ko harane aur students ko defeat karne se aya tha.
Stats dekhne ke baad usne skill tree kholi.
Iss dafa pehle se zyada skills available thi.
Har skill ka detail check karne ke baad, do skills ne uska dil kheench liya:
---
<Alpha Intimidation>
User ki ankhein scarlet red ho jaati hain, aur enemy ke stats 30% kam ho jaate hain. Yeh skill sirf unpar kaam karegi jinka Mental stat user se kam hoga.
<Moonlight Barrier>
User ek barrier se dhak jata hai jo moonlight se banta hai. Barrier ki strength user ke level aur moon ke hisaab se badh jaati hai. Yeh skill sirf tab kaam karti hai jab user chandni ke neeche ho.
---
Adhara ko Half-Werewolf banane aur ek pack ka Alpha ban’ne ke baad, Sikandar ne Alpha Intimidation unlock kar liya tha. Lekin usay defense ki skill bhi chahiye thi.
Alpha Intimidation ke liye 5 upgrade points chahiye the jabke Moonlight Barrier ke liye sirf 3.
Thodi dair sochne ke baad, Sikandar ne apne high Mental stats ki wajah se Alpha Intimidation ko lena behtar samjha.
---
Usne phir system se poocha:
“System, Alpha ban’ne ka faida kya hai?”
System ka jawab aya:
<Alpha ban’ne ke baad tumhein members ke Exp ka 20% milega, Sanity stat dheere kam hoga, aur jitne zyada members honge utna hi tumhein 5% bonus stats milega.>
Sikandar ke chehre par halki muskaan aa gayi,
“Accha… to isiliye mujhe Exp milta hai jab Adhara kisi ko haraati hai. Aur Sanity wala faida Full-Moon ke waqt kaam ayega… bonus stats to lajawab hain.”
Phir usne dubara system se sawal kiya:
“Lekin tumne responsibilities ka bhi zikr kiya tha. Woh kya hain?”
System ka jawab aya:
<Alpha ban’ne ka matlab yeh hai ke ab tumne duniya ko announce kar diya hai ke ek naya Alpha paida ho chuka hai.>
Sikandar ko andaza hi nahi hua ke jab Adhara ki transformation hui thi to uske andar se ek blue spark asmaan mein shoot hua tha — ek signal jo doosre Werewolves ko batata hai ke ek naya Alpha paida hua hai.
“Eh…?”, Sikandar ne aankhen faila kar system ka jawab padha.
Phir dheere se bola,
“Seedhi zubaan mein?”
System ka jawab aya:
<Silverstar Pack ab doosre Werewolf packs ke samnay mashhoor ho gaya hai.>
Yeh lafz uske dimagh par bijli ki tarah gire. Uske mathe par paseena aa gaya, haath kanpne lage.
‘Meri current taqat se main Werewolves ka muqabla nahi kar sakta!’
Lekin uske zehen mein foran uss Werewolf ka chehra ubhra jisne uske maa-baap ko mara tha.
Usne daant kas kar aankhen laal karte hue socha:
“Jo bhi ho… aane do unhein! Main sab ko kaat daalunga!”

Kuch din pehle…
Ghanay jungle ke beech, Werewolves jaanwaron ki tarah ghoom rahe the.
Raat ka aasman saaf tha, sirf chandni chamak rahi thi jo unhein sukoon de rahi thi.
Tabhi —
CRACK!!
Ek blue spark asmaan mein shoot hui aur dhamakay ke sath phat gayi.
Saare Werewolves ne ek saath sar uthaya, asmaan ko dekha aur hawa ko sung’ha.
Unhein ek naye Alpha ki boo aayi.
Haddi se bane hue ek hut ke andar, ek bohot bara grey Werewolf apne throne par baitha tha. Uska jism Sikandar se paanch guna bada, daayan aankh par lambi si scar, seene par zakham ka nishan, aur kandhe par ek laal chamakta hua rune.
Uske paas insaano aur jaanwaron ki lashon ka dher pada tha.
Woh aankhen band kiye sukoon se baitha tha, lekin jaise hi naye Alpha ka signal aya, uski aankhen laal chamak uthi. Uske muh se khoon behne laga.
Woh zor se khada hua, bhaari kadmon ki dharrrr se mitti hil gayi.
Usne asmaan ki taraf dekh kar khoon se bhari muskaan di,
“Ek naya Muqabla!”
Phir usne itni shiddat se howling ki ke poora jungle dahal gaya.
Aaaaoouuuuu!!
Aur baaki saare Werewolves uske sath howling mein shamil ho gaye, raat ki khamoshi ko dehshat mein tabdeel karte hue.
