Chapter 20 - Finla battle begins.

And the next day. It was all over the news, and they were talking about it all over, they were saying that it's krish's doing.

Raghav enters the police station, where the news about yesterday was happening. Raghav went to the interrogation chamber, a police man tries to stop him, but other man stopped him, and let him go. Some man came, and told them that he has five minutes and then they'll call him over. And Raghav didn't said anything to them, and then he asked a question.

" Did they said anything ? " And the man with him said that they can't say that to him. And that he shouldn't be here. And raghav ignored him.

" Really, having the prime minister as a friend is a really good thing. "And Raghav Ignored his inner voice.

" He is doing his prayer. " Said the officer beside him.

" And Raghav looked at him. "

" How many people you captured. " Asked Raghav looking at the man inside, who was praying to his god, Allah.

" Many people, around 40 people. And they all were injured , some dead. Krrish did his job. And are fearing him like no end, and they are talking bullshit. We identify some hired man, and that's all "

" Any idea why are they here? " And he replied.

" They were planning something? " And Raghav asked what? And he replied that he didn't know.

And after his prayer was over, Raghav entered the interrogation room.

" Walaikum assalam. Raghav said, looking at him.

" Assalaam valikum. " Replied the man. And Raghav sat in front of him. And the old man did his job, and made their conversation unreadable. And Raghav looked at his eyes.

" How did you know about soma? "asked d raghav. And the man looked at him.

" You know about it. " Said the terrorist.

" Yes, but the question is how do you know about it? " Asked Raghav. And the terrorist guy looked at him. And outside the people were checking Mike, about what's happening.

" In the old time, when God roam the world, they used to lead humans. Lead them to greatness. We worship them, cause he save us from demons and monsters. But now, the god is't hear, and man has become the demon itself. And because of that, god has left us. He was betrayed by us. Wounded by us, we were the reason, why God left the earth, why he felt pain . It's us human who make world like this. They deny the existence of God, our God. They call us fake and hypocrite, but in reality, they don't have a god to call of their own. So they hate us, hate our ways, they beat us because we are different , they don't like our presence. You don't know how it feels to be like a dog, like you are not a human. People see you, and instantly think you are below them. You are inferior because of your colour, your tongue, your ways, your gods. You are nothing compared to them. " And Raghav kept looking at his face.

" But that didn't give you the right to kill innocent people. "

" Innocent. Innocent, innocent. May I know your name, I want to address you." Said the man, and Raghav told him his name.

" So Mr Raghav, have you ever been to other countries? White counties ro be precise. " And Raghav didn't reply.

" Have you seen their faces, their faces, and their smiles? There are pretty and sweet smiles. " And Raghav didn't reply.

" Your country was once under the British people right, and they left you in 1947 without anything to breath. They stole your goods, they killed your man, they robbed you of your freedom, they enslaved you for ages, and torchered and torchered people who stood against them. And when they left they took, all things they can took. They looted 45 trillion dollars from your country, didn't they? Where is that money right now? Did they ever return that, did they even acknowledge that they were wrong, what they did was wrong. Did they ever apologise to you, support you? They used your country like a hoe, and tossed it away when they had used it all. " And Raghav slams his hand on the table. And the terrorist looked at him.

" Anger, angry right. You felt it. That's the same anger I felt, every day, every second of my life. You got angry when you heard the truth, the truth that never happened to you. So imagine my anger, when I said that all happens to me. To my people, the people I love, my children my family my people. " And he starts shout. And the people from outside the people opened the door, and dragged Raghav out, and terrorist man, kept on screaming his facts.

" And we know about that, because angels of gif have told us, and have shown us its power. "

And Raghav went out, more like getting escorted out.

And out, Raghav looked up above, and the media cara parked.

He went in the back, and after transforming went into the sky.

" So where are you going. " Asked Raghav.

" Clearing some terrorist base, you know they have soma, so it's my business "

" You have found a very roaring loophole in this mess, Raghav. "

" Yep. " And sped past them.

He reached a secluded area. Far from the city. He saw the ruin of a castel , and he flew over it. And after some time landed in the area. He looked around, and saw that some man was packing their stuff in a truck. He couldn't see there faces, but his AK47 and black clothes didn't scream terrorist, he didn't know what. He went there, and immediately took four terrorists down . And looked at the truck, and he didn't see any weapons of all shorts.

" Well, let's drop them. "

And he dropped four tied terrorists, and a car near a police station, ltrely. And again the credit goes to krrish, the neighbourhood superhero. And in the office, Raghav sighs. Seeing this.

" I hate that krish guy. "

" Sure you did. "said the old man. And Raghav slumped on his chair.

" You know if those terror- "

" Please don't. '' Raghav stopped the old man.

" I don't wanna hear about those terrorists. Let the police and military Handle it. I'll focus on them latter. Let's just rest for today. " Said Raghav in a defeated look.

And while he was sighing again, dizzy walked in. And looked at his defeated look.

" What happened boss? " She asked.

" Nothing dizzy, just a little stressed. "

" Hmm.! " She hummed and then picked some documents.

" Here are some bills from last week on your expenses, and other stuff. "

" Check it some time. " And then she ready to leave .

" Hey dizzy, do you have any work left ? " Asked Raghav. And she replied no.

" Take an early leave, you need rest also. " And she tries to deny it, but he tells her that it's an order.

And she left the news chanal open there, and it was showing the news that drishyam news is going to cover the whole ram mandir event.

And she obliged. And soon, the month passed, and the day came where they went to Ayodhya for the opening of the ram mandir. And they just reached the airport, and half of them were already in the aeroplane already.

And Raghav ws in the business class with other directors and main editors. He was sleeping his way out, and dizzy was just behind his cabin in the plane, and she was looking at her phone, and after that supriya was looking outside from the plane's window. And after that the middle class started, and there all the other staff were, Jay was beside her sister jia, who both were sleeping on their shoulders, and others were sleeping as well.

They reached Ayodhya, and so the massive crowd outside. It took them an hour to get out from the airport and an extra three hours to reach their hotel. And when they reached there they took a sigh of relief.

Raghav looked at his people, and there was nothing to do. They looked like they were tired. And he said in a loud voice.

" Listen everybody. " And everyone looked at him.

" We are going to the puja tonight. The time is 2 pm, so get lunch and get ready. We will go in half an hour, so be ready. " And everybody groaned.

They were eating in the cafeteria. And Raghav was eating in his room, and dizzy was eating with him.

" Hey dizzy, I'm not feeling well. Raghav said, dizzy.

" Did I call a doctor? " She asked.

" No. " He replied.

" It's just, I'm not Feeling well. " Said Raghav.

" Like something is going to happen. " She replied.

" Me as well. "said raghav. And they both stayed that way.

" Let's just eat first, Lord Ram will take care of everything. " And they're done eating.

They readied himself. Raghav wore his Indian dress and was dizzy in a sari.

They reached the venue, the whole line was covered with crowd, they were literally struck. But because of their media rights, they got the first view. and When they reached there, they saw the most beautiful temple they have ever seen. Camera crew was doing their job, and Raghav was enjoying the view. The entrance has two huge stone elephants in the door welcoming them, there were four doors to be totaled, decorated by their own designs, and when they entered they saw a huge statue of Lord Ram. And then he saw the most beautiful lighting and temple. It was huge, the temple covered by green gardens and pillars. They walked the long way toward the temple, and in the middle of that garden was a huge circle of stone, which was like a big opening, where in the group many carvings were made. And then they went inside the temple and it was marveles.

Beautiful in all senses. There were several people, but for the moment, for him, there was no one, not even his staff. He was alone there, without any crowd and person, he was alone. Marvelling the beauty. He reached the main hall and saw the statues of Lord ram, devi sita, Lord laxman and Lord hanuman. And after seeing that, he felt like they were looking at him. He can still hear that calm and soft music which he felt like he was feeling. And after that they saw the आरती, which started from the river side to the temple area. There were several pujaries, from every corner of earth , there was pujari of dwarka, pujari or jagannath, pujari of kedarnath, pujari of Rameshwaram. And they all were doing the आरती at the same time. Many people who were part of Raghav's journey. General Raghav, Raghav's driver and his mother with him, the navy guys, his friend Mahen, with his two enfermos bodyguards. And several bodyguards were there protecting the VIPs.

Raghav and dizzy was now in the river side of the area, where there alone, all the crew and other staff were around the temple enjoying the celebration.

And then, a boom.

An explosion happened near the entrance of the temple, and two elephants fell. And then gunshots can be heard. And then another blast shook the grounds. Another door fell, and then one by one, all four doors fell, trapping the man down inside the temple campus. And in that campus were all the people that Raghav met. And as soon as the explosions happened, gunshots could be heard. And all over the temple screams can be heard, and people start to panic. And they start to run toward the middle of the temple. And they were screaming in fear, several people were already dead. The guard came in front of the door, and raised their weapons in a ready motion. They haven't seen any one yet, but no one will be sure to come. And then they heard firing, at it was happening outside, and then they heard screams, screams of people. But they didn't know that, they have made the biggest mistake of their life.

Their mistake is, they attacked innocent people, in front of the wrong guy. "

Raghav was stuck in the middle of that stone circle in the park area, which was getting stampede by the people. But he, in his tall stacher, protected Dizzy from being crushed and covered her with his arm. The panicked crowd was crushing them, Raghav was trying to save Dizzy and his man.

He asked what's happening, and the old man replied that terrorists had attacked the temple, and he couldn't understand how they managed it. It was top notch security, he couldn't understand, but he could see that it was happening.

He looked dizzy, which was now crying because of all the panik, and he told her to calm down. And everything is gonna be ok. And she didn't believe him, and some body pushed him, and he pushed the man back saying watch what you doing. And the man just looked at him in panik, and said he couldn't find her daughter. And he saw his fear and panic look, he called down. He looked at Dizzy.

" Dizzy look at me. " Said holding her head.

" Everything is gonna be okay, believe me, believe me daisy. I'll save everyone. "

" Raghav? "

He looked at the huge statue of Lord ram , with little glazed eyes.

" What are you going to do? " Asked the old man. And all sound stops, and time seems to stop. Everyone vanished, and now there was only Raghav and an old man in the middle of the circle.

" Give me my braccers. " Said Raghav looking at him. And old man kept looking at him.

" They are influenced by the kaal. " Said the old man.

" I can sense Mrityu, he is behind all this. " And the old man didn't react.

" Is this the time where the world knows about the Gods? " Asked the old man. Looking at him.

" No! This is the time when they are going to know about the Maharakshak, preserver of all."

An old man then turns, and says.

" Do what you like, but if the world ends, don't blame me. I'll try my best to hide your face . " Said the old man, and he vanished. And everything became normal once again. He saw that now most of the crowd was now behind him. And the military was trying to get everyone into the temple. And they looked at the pair, and they tried to get him to safety.

And he said,

" No. '' And the military man asked him what he said.

" No " He heard that again. And the man tries to talk to him, saying that it's dangerous.

And raghav looked at his braccers. And then looked at the man.

And some terrorists in civilian clothes were holding guns. And some people were hostages. And were under covers of some stones and pillars. And some were on top of walls surrounding the temple, taking the civilians there hostages. and they have already killed guards there, and locked the door of both ends, and now aim at the crowd.

And then they threatened the military that they were gonna kill the hostages if they didn't stay back. And the family of that hostage, which was mom, seeing her daughter in their arms wheeled like parents should, she started to yell and cry. And the military, seeing the hostage situation, stayed back, but kept their aim at them. And then seeing the situation escalate, the apparent leader took out a hand speaker, and said in broken hindi. He was warning the people, and praying to Gods for the sins of people they're gonna kill. And that was the most that he could say. Because the next moment, the earth shook. And he paused, and then the earth shook again. And then again. It wasn't like an earthquake, it was like someone was punching the ground, something really big. Some people fell, and some more rubble fell. And then hears a grunt, not a normal grunt, it was animalistic, like a, like a lion. And then the earth shook, and the ground where raghav was standing, the middle stone circle, started to rise a little. Like someone was punching it from inside.
