Sher ke jalkar bhag jane ke baad jungle me fir se sannata cha gya. Vikram ke hathon se nikalti aag ki lapetein dheere dheere shant hui, lekin uski aankhon me ab ek anokhi, neeli or kali chamak saaf dikh rahi thi. Uski ragon me daurta current ab shant tha, par wah mehsoos kar sakta tha ki uski taqat pehle se kayi guna badh chuki hai.
Tabhi uske dimag me fir se ek awaz gunji:
[SYSTEM ALERT: 'Dark Forest' ka pehla charan pura hua.]
[REWARD: 30 XP, nayi skill unlock hui - 'Shadow step']
Twist
Vikram ab wo nhi tha jise uske pita or bhaiyon ne "Agnihotri khandan ka dhabba" kehkar use Shahar se bahar fenk diya tha. Uske mann me apne apman ka badla lene ki aag or bhi tez ho gyi thi. Lekin use pata tha ki in gundo ki shakti isi "Dark Forest" se milti hai.
Iska matlab hai ki is jungle ke andar koi gehra raaj hai.
Vikram jungle ki taraf badhne laga. Jaise jaise woh aage badh rha tha, suraj ki roshni puri tarah gayab ho chuki thi or pure jungle me andhera chaa gya tha.
Lekin Vikram apni black energy ka istemal kiya to use thodi roshni dikhayi dene lagi.
Achanak, use samne ek gufa najar aayi. Us gufa ke samne whi gunde khade the, jinhone gaon walon ko pareshan kar rakha tha. Vikram pedh ke piche chip gya or usne 'shadow step' ka istemal kya, jisse uska sharir kisi vyakti ko dikhayi nhi de raha tha.
Woh gufa ke andar gya to usne dekha unche si sinhasan par ek aadmi baitha tha, jisne kale kapde pehne hue the. Woh koi or nhi, balki 'andhkar ka jadugar' kaalvaibhav tha.
Gundon ne kanpte hue bola, "Maalik! Humein maaf kar dijiye. Gaon mei ek ladka aya tha, jiske pass koi ajib si shakti hai. Usne humein wha se bhaga diya"
Kaalvaibhav gusse se bola, "murkhon! Us gaon se mujhe logon ki nafrat or darr se kali shakti milti thi. Agr us ladke ne gaon walon ka dar kahtm kar diya to mujhe shakti kahan se milegi? Jao us ladke ko dhund kar mere samne lao".
Ped ke piche chipe Vikram ke dimag me turant system aya:
[SYSTEM ALERT:Jadugar ki nafrat apke 'Black energy' ko charge kar rhi h. Kya aap dushmani lena chahenge? Yes/No
Vikram : 'Yes'
Jaise hi usne yes par click kya, gufa ke jadugar ki sari urja Vikram ke andar Aa gyi. Vikram hawa me udne laga, charon taraf kali shakti hawa me behne lagi.
Gufa ke andar Kaalvaibhav achanak chaunk gya. use mehsoos hua ki uski kali shakti usse chin gyi h. Woh chillaya," kon hai wahan"?
Vikram uske samne aaya Or bola "tumne hi in gundon ko paal rakha hai?"
Kaalvaibhav ne gusse se kaha, tumhari himmat kaise hui meri urja churane ki?
Usne kale jadu ka gola Vikram ki taraf fenka.
Lekin Vikram ka system activate hua:
[SYSTEM WARNING: Dushman bahot shakti shali hai. 'High energy' generate karein! Cost: 10XP]
Vikram ne chillaya "Activate!"
Vikram ke samne ek vishal dhal ban gyi. Kaalvaibhav ki waar us dhal se takraya or ek jordar dhamaka hua. Lekin Vikram ko kuch nhi hua.
[XP GAIN: +20 points dushman ke nafrat se]
Vikram ne 'Shadow step' ka istemal kiya or ek pal me wo Kaalvaibhav ke piche ja pahuncha or jordar kadakti bijli ki tarah ek mukka usne Kaalvaibhav ki pith par mara.
Kaalvaibhav door jakar gida use bhut chot lagi or baki gunde ye sab dekh Kar bhag gye. Kaalvaibhav ki aakhon me apni maut ka darr dikh rha tha.
[XP GAIN: 30+ points Kaalvaibhav ke maut ke darr se]
[SYSTEM ALERT: Level 2 Unlocked]
[NEW FEATURE GENERATE: 'Memory Extraction']
Vikram ab nye feature ka istemal kiya. Usne Kaalvaibhav ke sir se memory extract kar liya. Lekin un yaadon ko dekh kar Vikram hairan ho gya.
Usne dekha ki Kaalvaibhav ko sadharan jadugar nhi tha, balki woh Agnihotri khandan ke mukhiya yani Vikram ke Pita 'Arjun Agnihotri' ka purana dost tha.
Saalon Pehle, Arjun or Kaalvaibhav ne milkar apni shaktiyon ko badhane ke lye ek gupt samjhota kya tha. Arjun ko shahar ki gaddi chahiye thi, or Kaalvaibhav ko Dark Forest ki shaktiyan.
TWIST NO II
Sabse bada jhatka Vikram ko tab lagi jab usne dekha ki uski maa 'jinda hai' balki use Arjun ne khud Kaalvaibhav ki shaktiyon ko jagane ke liye is Dark Forest me kaid karke rakha tha. Vikram ko ye bataya gya tha ki uski maa mar chuki hai.or Vikram ko ghar se nikalna bhi ek saajish thi, taki wo apni maa tak na pahunch sake.
Ab Vikram ke samne puri sacchayi thi. Jis pita ko wo apna ideal samajh raha tha asal me woh hi ek lalchi rakshas tha. Or uski maa, jise wo kabhi nhi dekha tha, wo isi jungle me kahin tadap rhi thi.
Vikram ki Aankhon me aansu Aa gye,lekin Wo aansu ek Bhayanak badle ki thi. Usne aasman ki taraf dekha or chillaya,"Agnihotri khandan! Tumne mujhe kamjor samjh kar fenka tha, mero maa ko mujhse alag rakha. Ab me aa rha hu wapas tum sabka kaal bankar.
[SYSTEM GENERATE: Revenge of Agnihotri's ]
[WARNING: You have to unlock more negative energy]
Vikram ka maqsad ab apni maa ko dhundna tha. Uske Baad "Black energy" system se pure Agnihotri khandan ko tahas nahas karna jisne ye dard diya tha. Usne shadow step ka istemal kya or jungle ke uss hisse me ja pahuncha jahan uski maa kaid thi.
Jail ke bahar do shaktishali aadmi khada tha. Unke hathon me chamakdar talwarein thi or unhe uski maa ki nigrani ke liye rakha tha.
Vikram jaise hi kadam badhaya, un rakshakon ne use rok diya .
[SYSTEM ALERT :negative energy badh rhi hai + 100 XP]
Dono guards ne ek sath apni talwarein Vikram ki or fenka. Unki talwarein se nikalne wale roshni itne tez the ki Vikram ki Black energy kam pad rhi thi.
Ek guard ne Vikram par talwar fenki talwar Vikram ke hath ko chidta hua nikla.
Uske hath se khoon nikalne laga or wo zameen par gir gaya.
