Don't run

A man can bend
To his circumstances
Or shall fight against them
Fate gives no chances
But to fight is honour

Cowards run away
From their fate
But reach nowhere
Because you can't run
From your own Destiny

Fight till you crack
Or until you bend
But don't run
Because you may choose to run
But it won't take you anywhere

Jay 2

When Shakti and Laxmi picked up Jay from Cafe Coronary and brought him here Jay was mostly curious. He lived alone in a 2BHK apartment in IP city. It was like going on a holiday for him.
After Laxmi and Shakti convinced him he sat in the white sedan and came to Himachal. University was in a valley surrounded by dense trees. When he first arrived he was stunned with the natural beauty that surrounded him.
He met the professor, the head of the institution and of the university. After Bhaskar Mukherjee he was the third professor who was in charge of the university, the vice-chancellor of the university and also the responsible for the Ashtabhuj operations.
He met Dr. Rajesh who was a physicist and head of the Ashtabhuj operation team. The members of the Ashtabhuj operations team were spread throughout India. They were called for various missions according to their skill sets.

Jay

It was a chilly morning but the fireplace had kept the room warm. It was snowing outside. Jay got out from the bed and made himself coffee. Holding the coffee mug in his hand he looked out of the window to see everything covered in a white, thick layer of snow.
Two years ago Laxmi and Shakti came to Cafe Coronary to bring him here, to the Campus. After one year of intense training he started working for the University, and it became his home, this 1BHK apartment at the University campus.
During his training period he made friends with Prithvi and Ali. Ali was posted in Delhi while Prithvi decided to live in a nearby town Kalpa where he did organic farming and solved cases for his clients. He came to university only when he was required.
Jay sipped his coffee and thought about what all had happened in past two years. After Dhaima passed away, he and Totto had lost everything. Totto was 3 years older to him.  He lived  alone and played in a death metal band called Mrityu. Totto lived nearby and came often. After he left IP City, Totto opened a small gift shop in IP city and called him regularly.
In these two years Jay's world view had completely changed. World was not what he believed it to be. First one year of strict training and then missions assigned by the university. Life had changed so much since then.
When his parents died in a car crash, he had moved to IP city. Money was never a problem for him because his parents left a fortune with Dhaima for taking care of him.
After moving to the Campus he had been busy with the missions the university assigned him. It was a fight between two rivaling organizations, and he was with the university. 

Story of Ashtbhuj

1920 India: Colonel James Smith and archeologist Dr. Bhaskar Mukherjee were at the excavation site in United Province. The workers had found a chest and an old statue which had eight arms. Dr. Norah Adams who was a specialist in linguistics and ancient Indian language had accompanied them to the site. The statue was of an old god, much before any other known civilization.
Dr. Mukherjee was thrilled and so were Colonel Smith and Dr. Adams. The chest contained manuscripts in an ancient language which could only be read by Dr. Adams.
The workers were still busy digging. Dr Mukherjee, Dr. Adams and Colonel Smith were in the tent discussing about the manuscripts when they heard a noise and a call from outside.
A treasure had been discovered, huge amounts of gold, jewels and ornaments were found by the excavation workers.
Colonel Smith ordered his officers to guard the treasure. The day had been a success. A whole new civilization had been discovered. A civilization which existed but no one knew anything about.
Dr. Adams and Dr. Mukherjee were excited about the manuscript so they headed back to the tent to decipher the manuscript. Colonel followed them.
In the tent Dr. Adams started to decipher the manuscripts.
"It is not easy to decipher the language but they have hieroglyphics which tell that the eight-handed statue was made from a stone which fell from the sky, and it gives powers to a person who owns it." Dr. Adams said to Dr. Mukherjee.
Colonel Smith who was listening to her quietly asked, "Do you really believe that?"
"Of course not, but it is difficult to deny anything without a proof; this is the reason we have not been able to deny God." Dr Adams said.
"Until today we didn't even know that such a civilization was buried under the earth, had a farmer not found an artefact, we wouldn't have been able to know it ever", said Dr. Mukherjee.
Colonel agreed to both of them. "The government will be very happy on our discovery, especially the treasure," he said.

उफान

सपने टूटते हैं  तो दिल टूट जाता है, दर्द का दरिया उमड़ता है कभी, कभी गुस्से का उफान, खालीपन सा घर कर लेता है  सीने में और फिर हम फिर उस खालीप...
