39 KILLING TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE (1/2)
Arjun and Aeron looked back to the owner of the voice. They found a middle aged man standing with a wiry smile on his face.
That person wore a black gown. There was an Owl symbol at the middle of the dress.
Arjun asked, ” Who are you? How do you know my name?”
That man said, ” My name is Basil! I'm one of the inner executives of the Assassin's Organisation. Nice to meet you. ”
Arjun and Aeron were stunned! They had a thought, 'He didn't die? That means he was here all the time. Or else he would have died along with others.'
Arjun was calm. He asked, ” Are you here to kill me?”
” Yes.” , replied Basil.
” Where were you all this time? Why didn't you died earlier?” , asked Arjun.
Basil Said with a smile on his face, ” I was given a specific target to take down. You were that target. So I was looking for you. But honestly I couldn't find you for some reason. When I was looking for you here and there, I sensed somebody's presence here So I came here by tracking that presence.”
Basil continued, ” When I came here I figured out that the presence that I tracked down was that young man standing beside you. Later something unexpected happened. That white light came out of that weird thing in your hands. It destroyed everything. ”
Basil Said with a serious face, ” Kid! why can't I sense you using my spiritual sense? Do you have any answer for that?”
Arjun replied, ” How could I know? You are far more experienced than me. You should be in the position to explain rather than asking.”
Basil Said with a wiry smile on his face, ” Well! Who cares? I'm the man who completes my order given by my organisation. I don't care about the other members of the Assassin's Organisation who died. I only care about my mission. So get ready to die!”
Arjun said calmly , ” Fine. You win. Honestly I'm getting sick, from hiding. Now that I know you are going to kill me, I want some things to be cleared before I die. So could you please clear my doubts?”
Basil went silent. Then he looked at the unity weapon in Arjun's hands.
Arjun understood what Basil was thinking. He said, ” Don't worry. This is just a one time use weapon. This weapon is pretty much useless.”
Arjun pulled the trigger of the weapon. But nothing came out. He then said to Basil , ” See. Nothing came out.”
Arjun then threw the Unity Weapon on the ground frustratingly. Basil who saw this felt something suspicious. He thought
[ What exactly are you planning kid.]
[ I'm not understanding anything. But one thing is for sure. You giving away on your life is not real.]
” That's not going to happen. I'm not going to hand him over to you just like that!” , Shouted Aeron furiously.
” I agree. ” , replied Arjun, ” Big brother please leave. Uncle Brooks is waiting for you.”
” That's not going to happen at any cost. ” Aeron replied , ” Stand aside and let me handle him.”
Arjun said with a smile on his face, ” You think you are strong enough to defeat him. That's a joke if you ask me. Uncle Brooks is waiting for you. You have a girlfriend who is waiting for you. So take your responsibility and fulfill your Destiny. ”
