Part 28

Acid Chandu hurled acid at Pooja from a distance and shielding her face with her hands she looked away. Agent Scar knew this was the perfect moment. He broke free from his captives and he quickly said the words,"Inhibiting 20%." He gained a sudden burst of strength and speed and then muttered the words,"Eye of the Assassin Activate." closing his left eye and opening only his right one. Suddenly the world appeared to go slow around him. He could even see the acid coming towards Pooja in form of drops separated from each other. He pounced upon her and they both fell down away from harm's reach.

For a moment no one understood what had happened. Then things became clearer - Ravi actually broke free from his captives and then pushed Pooja away from the acid in all over a fraction of a second. Pooja herself was not sure how it happened. Then Agent Scar quickly got back to his legs and lifted Pooja up and without uttering another word,he grabbed her arm tightly and started running straight towards Acid Chandu. But just before they bumped into each other Agent Scar moved a little aside and pushed Acid Chandu down.

Pooja and Ravi started running really fast and she was not exactly an athletic person, she was soon out of breath and couldn't run any longer. So they turned into a by-lane and were in for a shock because they entered a dead end and on the other end of the lane Acid Chandu's gang members blocked the entrance. Pooja was now certain that she would die and Agent Scar had far more important thoughts in his mind - It's no big deal for me to finish all this creeps in a minute but then I would have to reveal my identity to the subject, that would mean the end of the mission. I have never failed in any mission but if I don't kill them they are going to kill me and I wouldn't want that scenario to arise.

Being the monsoon season the sky had become dark gray and Thunders could be heard and lightning could be seen occasionally. What started as a slow drizzle quickly turned into heavy rain and that setting was perfect for a bloody fight scene to happen.

Pooja had told something about the almighty God to Ravi who always granted wishes to ones who truly prayed him. Agent Scar had never been to any temple or even thought about the existence of God till then but he closed his eyes and said,"Dear God, I don't know if you are listening to me or not but if you are don't let me reveal my identity and I will I will...." he had to promise God something he thought and said,"I will not kill the subjects of my next two assignments." Rain continued to pour over their heads and Ravi opened his eyes only to find the gangsters coming close to them. Seeing that he had no other option. He turned to Pooja and said,"Sorry Pooja." he meant it in a different context but she thought that he was saying it because he would be unable to protect her.

Then he started walking towards them slowly and he felt a pull from behind, it was Pooja who caught his sleeve and said,"No don't, they are going to kill you."

Ignoring Pooja's warning he continued to walk slowly towards them and this time closing his right eye he uttered the words,"Eye of the Assassin Activate." Again the world appeared different for him but this time Agent Scar was seeing the world in different colors he was not able to see their faces but was able to see the weak spots of every person who was coming towards him and he had been trained to strike most of the weak spots in relatively very little time.

He clenched his fists and got ready to fight them off but he stopped on hearing the sound of a Police siren. A Police Jeep was on its regular patrols and stopped to check what the commotion was. Then Inspector Ram the newly transferred Police Officer got down from the Jeep and shouted,"Hey who is there and what's going on?"

The ruffians ran away on seeing the Police and Ravi deactivated his special eye. From that moment on he started believing that God existed and was really grateful to him. Then Pooja narrated the entire incident to Inspector Ram and he personally offered them a lift home. As they were going in the jeep. Pooja noticed that tears were rolling down Ravi's cheeks and she asked him why he was crying.

The real reason was that the ability "Eye of the Assassin" strains one's eye a lot and as Agent Scar had used it simultaneously for two times, his eyes were burning up and the tears were helping them cool down.

But Ravi wanted to use the scene to his advantage and said,"I would never forgive myself if something had happened to you today." he wiped away his tears and then she asked him another question,"Why did you try to fight off those brutes when you knew you had no chance of winning against them."

Ravi just got another opportunity, he said,"Pooja I just thought it would be better to you know, die protecting you rather than living without you."

That was more than enough, Pooja realized how much Ravi loved her and she had decided what to say to him the next day but she just didn't want to show it and she kept quiet.

Finally Pooja's house came and both of them got down there only and she said to Ravi,"What if those brutes attack me again."

Ravi replied,"You know what Pooja, God does exist and he is going to punish all of them tonight for trying to hurt a beautiful girl like you."

Then Ravi just said,"Bye,take care." and left.

Pooja never expected the turn of events to be like this but she was finally in Love and that too with whom, A person who broke her best friend's heart. Pooja didn't care about anything anymore-Shreya,their Final Year exams. All those things seemed trivial for her now.

She had seen how protective he was about her and she knew she had found herself a new boy friend.

Back at King's Cross. Agent Scar was talking with The King only in the presence of Robert who was King's personal Body guard.

Agent Scar said,"She is in love with me right now, what next."

The King was happy and said,"Good Scar, but lets take it slowly from here wait for a while before we start extracting info from her."

Scar said,"If you wanted Romeo Spy why hire an assassin."

Robert asked humbly,"Boss what is a Romeo Spy?"

Agent Scar replied,"Romeo Spies were created in ancient times for faking emotions and extracting information from daughters and sisters of Rich and the Influential."

Then Robert also repeated the question why hire him.

Then the King slowly said,"Through out History most of the Romeo Spies fell in Love with their Subjects and the missions had to be terminated abruptly we wanted to Assassin cause you are trained to come out of any situation alive and most importantly, you don't have emotions."

Agent Scar left the place and outside he looked at his watch and uttered the words,"Tracker Device Activate" then the screen of his watch changed to a map and blinking blip was in an old warehouse not far from the place he was standing and he thought to himself,"Acid Chandu I am going to neutralize you now." and went away.
