(Hello guys, if you want to know about this world, then please read Volume 0. It will be easier for you to understand the story.)
In the alleys of Kolkata, monsters are everywhere.
Seven days had passed since the attack. Thousands of cities had already been destroyed.
But in one dark alley, four children were running for their lives.
"Yash! Run faster!" Ishan shouted.
With them was a boy named Rahul and a girl named Anaya.
Yash was completely covered in blood. He said, exhausted,
"Ishan… I can't run anymore…"
"You have to run, Yash!" Ishan grabbed his hand and pulled him,
"Or these monsters will eat us alive!"
Just then—
"AAAHH! Rahul! Look out!!"
Anaya's scream pierced the air.
Rahul looked at that direction and he get shocked terrified as well and his legs started shaking because he saw a monster that have two big razor sharp claws that can cut the buildings too and have wings that it can fly faster then a fighter jet itself....
Everyone froze, trembling at its terrifying form.
Slowly, they began to back away…
And then—
The mantis suddenly attacked!
"Yash! Ishan! Anaya! MOVE!!" Rahul screamed,
And pushed them outside the impact range.
The attack hit him instead.
Ishan's head slammed into the wall, leaving a deep gash.
He barely managed to steady himself when
"RAHUL NO!!!" Anaya's scream echoed.
Yash and Ishan looked up—
And their blood ran cold.
The mantis's claw cut down the Rahul in two parts and even the building behind Rahul also get destroyed just by the mantis one slash
But he looked at Yash, trying to calm—
"Don't worry about me… just run…"
"RAHULLLLL!!!" Yash screamed, tears flooding his eyes.
Anaya stood frozen in shock.
Tears streamed down her cheeks,
But her face was completely blanked.
And then that mantis crushed his head with his foot and start eating him and then looked at them.
Rahul's blood scattered through the air.
Yash stared in horror at the mantis—
Its eyes were blood-red, and drool dripped from its jaws.
Watching that, Yash's breath quickened and feeling nausea.
Fear shot through his veins like electricity.
At that moment, Ishan grabbed his hand and shouted—
"Yash! Anaya! There's a hole beneath that wall…
We can escape through there!"
Yash saw it — the bottom of the wall had collapsed.
Without a second thought, Ishan grabbed both Anaya and Yash's hands,
And the three of them crawled through the hole and crying while not making noises…
Behind them, the mantis's still feeding on rahul body and eating one by one of his organs—
And another painful memory was left behind that will haunt them in the future dreams…
Near Howrah Bridge
In a house, two children — one brother and one sister.
Kreeti looked at his big brother and shaking like she is in the fridge and said in fear and worry "Abhimanyu brother... the monsters will eat us..."
Abhimanyu, hugging his sister tightly:
"No, Kreeti... I'm here. Nothing will happen."
But just then... a loud roar echoed from behind.
Abhimanyu hugged his sister even tighter.
Suddenly, with one powerful strike of a claw, the entire house trembled.
Abhimanyu turned and looked behind — a big block was about to fall on both of them.
Without thinking much, he lift kreeti in his arm and jumped out of the window.
They crashed hard into the ground. His arm was broken now.
But still holding Kreeti, Abhimanyu gently stroked her head.
Abhimanyu:
"Sister... are you okay?!"
Kreeti still hugging his chest and crying and shaking due to fear-
"Yes, brother... but you're hurt..."
But before they could say anything more...
Kreeti suddenly shouted:
"Brother... behind you... it's a tiger!"
Abhimanyu turned and looked — the same tiger... the one who had been leading this destruction across Kolkata.
It was standing before him like the God of death.
Abhimanyu's body went cold because that Tiger still have blood on his near mouth and his claws that can kill him if he moved a inch...
But he felt Kreeti's fear.
Abhimanyu stood in front of her protectively.
Kreeti clutched her head while crying.
Abhimanyu look at the tiger that his eyes on him and her sister so he collected his will and said "As long as I'm alive... you can't even touch my sister!"
The tiger stared at Abhimanyu...
And let out a monstrous roar.
All the windows in the nearby buildings shattered.
And he is also about fall on the ground but he somehow managed to stay still and spreading his arm bigger..
The tiger stared at him, surprised...
And then, furious.
For the first time, it sensed a true opponent in Abhimanyu.
Until now, every human had been like an ant in front of it.
Abhimanyu with a desperate voice and shouted
"LEAVE NOW....!"
The tiger suddenly lunged with a powerful claw swipe.
Abhimanyu was flung into the debris of a nearby building.
many bones broke.
Blood poured from his mouth; his head was bleeding heavily and he cant able to stand up straight.
But he was still barely alive.
Abhimanyu gathered his strength... and saw the tiger walking towards Kreeti.
Abhimanyu look at her and get shocked and shouted at her will his remaning strength-
"Kreeti! Run! Run from there!" but he is to far from her and before he can do anything.
Kreeti looked up... and saw — the tiger was dangerously close to her and her life flashed back in front of her eyes that how much she is happy with her brother and mother and father and then this happened and her mother and father died and only her brother still with him.
And before anyone could react...
The tiger struck.
Kreeti's body flew into the air.
Her arm instantly destroyed by the force.
Blood poured from her mouth...
She crashed 10 meters away and her.
Abhimanyu... who could only watch...
Suddenly, his eyes began to glow with red Aura.
Professor Rajesh's Chamber
Professor Rajesh was reading ancient texts in a grand chamber with the presidents.
Professor Rajesh look at the text and get shocked and a lump formed in his throat and said
"This means... any human could only evolve...
when one of their six senses awakened...
And then, they became a warrior,
Only then could they control and manipulate this aura..."
"In ancient times... these warriors were known as —
The guardians of the world — Rakshaks (protectors).
Whom we thought were myths,
Those were actually the truth...
Which meant, this time not only monsters... but humans could also evolved."
Abhimanyu
Screaming with rage, his wounds were healing rapidly.
His 'Rage' sense had been activated.
Abhimanyu's whole body began to glow with red Aura.
Suddenly, the locket around his neck started to shine —
Symbol of the sun.
And the surrounding getting effected too due to his aura and getting little distortions on it.
And in his hands... an Aura Sword began to form.
