Chapter 14 – The Secrets Beneath Still Waters
Location: Aqua Core Chamber – Aravalli Training Facility
The chamber was vast and glowing — a cave filled with a lake that shimmered in gentle cyan light. The ceiling looked like a starry night sky, though it was deep underground. Ripples echoed like whispers, and faint water spirits occasionally danced across the surface.
The team stood in awe, all dressed in lightweight blue training robes.
> Maya: "This place… it feels alive."
> Arjun (grinning): "Yeah, like it's gonna eat us alive."
> Mayra: "That would be a problem. I just did my hair."
Chibi Moment #1 – Mayra twirls dramatically, and the water spirits copy her, making her look like a magical water princess.
> Yash: "I hope these spirits can also copy protein shakes."
> Kabir: "You'll drown if you drink in here, bro."
> Isha: "Then let him. Natural selection."
Everyone laughed. Even Shrey, who had been unusually quiet, smiled.

The Training Begins
Captain Jacks stepped onto a floating lotus platform in the center.
> Captain Jacks: "Silence. Welcome to Aqua Core training — the second phase of K-Energy mastery."
He held up a small orb. Inside it… a swirling storm of water and memories.
> Captain Jacks: "But first… the truth."
He tossed the orb into the water. A holographic projection exploded upward — five towering beasts roared to life in ethereal blue light.
> Captain Jacks: "Long ago, the SCP Foundation captured five mythical beasts: the Flame Phoenix, the Storm Tiger, the Sky Leviathan, the Earthbound Golem, and the Prism Wolf. From their essence… the five types of K-Energy were born."
Everyone fell silent.
> Zaid (quietly): "We're using stolen power?"
> Dr. Jain: "Yes. And that's why you must respect it."
Chibi Moment #2 – Rohan dramatically imagines the beasts chasing him for stealing their power.
> Rohan: "I'm gonna die, guys. Leviathan's gonna eat me!"
> Maya (laughing): "You're too small to be a snack."

Meditation Time
The squad was instructed to sit in silence on the floating platforms and connect with the water. Each teen had their own reaction:
Shrey felt echoes of his parents, like the lake was reflecting his deepest grief.
Maya sat beside him, quietly placing her hand on his.
> Maya (softly): "It's okay to remember. That's how we move forward."
Yash was splashing water on his face.
> Kim (sternly): "It's meditation, not a pool party."
Arjun was cross-legged, but kept opening one eye at Mayra.
> Mayra: "Focus, loverboy. Or Leviathan will eat you."
Chibi Moment #3 – Leviathan appears behind Arjun in chibi form and bites his butt. Arjun jumps.
Kabir and Isha sat side by side.
> Kabir: "You ever wonder if we deserve this power?"
> Isha: "No. I'm gonna earn it."
Rohan stared at the water and whispered:
> Rohan: "Rohit… are you watching me?"
The water shimmered in response.

Evening Conversation
Later that night, the squad sat around a glowing spring. The conversation grew deeper.
> Shrey: "They stole power from something ancient… Does that make us villains?"
> Adi: "Villains don't protect others. We've bled for this world."
> Zaid (to Shrey): "Your soul is strong. The beasts chose you when you awakened your eye."
> Shrey: "Zaid… You're not normal either, are you?"
Zaid looked away, hesitant.
> Captain Jacks (from behind): "That's enough for tonight. Tomorrow, you dive into the lake. Only those who master their fears will find the heart of Aqua Core."
Everyone nodded — some nervously, some excited. The night ended with light banter.

Chibi Moment #4 – Maya playfully pushes Shrey into the lake when he tries to act "too serious."
> Maya: "Mr. Deep Thoughts can swim, right?"
> Shrey (popping up): "You're SO dead—!"
