The airplane was of ice, everything was of ice. Even the wings and the engine and the pilots and the seats, they were turned to ice, except the food, passengers, crew and the parachutes.
The door which connected the economy and buisness class was blocked by backpacks. The screams were gone and there was a silence in the flight.
There was ice all around where the eyes can see but there was not even the slightest of coldness.
Suddenly, the backpacks blocking the door started moving by themself. It was like something was kicking them and then in the next moment, in the blink of eye, they were pushed with such tremendous force that they were sent flying towards the buisness class passengers seat.
Someone kicked them with good amount of power and that someone was now standing at the door. His left hand in his pant's left pocket, his right hand adjusting his tie and a cigaratte in his mouth, the agent of Lucian and Lucas.
They both were happy to see him alive, a charm in their eyes and tears in Lucas' eyes.
The agent was wearing his black suit and white shirt and black glasses. No one could tell where he was looking.
He walked few steps and everyone except Lucian and Lucas were were afraid of him. They thought that he was among the hijackers. But actually, no one knew that they were not hijackers, they were the assasions, who came in the flight to kill every single adventurer and future adventurer but they never thought they will encounter one of the world's top 500 strongest adventurer.
The agent spoke, "Everyone, do not worry. I have taken care of the problem and you all can enjoy your flight peacefully. But, unfortunately, we lost our pilot but do not worry, there are new pilots.
They took a breath of relaxation but still, some were still suspicious of the agent.
They asked, "Who are you? ".
The agent remained silent. They again questioned, " Who are you!? ".
The agent exhaled a deep breath and took out his license from his pocket. The license given to every adventurer. It has a black cover and it opened like a cell phone. He showed them his license.
[Name: Hikaru Aizawa]
[Age: 35]
[Profession: Adventurer]
[Mother Land: America]
Everyone there were shocked to see his and mother place. His name was japanese but his mother land was America. He also didn't look like japanese.
Lucian thought, " An alias? ".
But nobody knew whether it was his real name or alias because it is near impossible to use an alias for your adventurer license.
There were several other agents beside Hikaru too in the flight. But all of them were just scaredy cat. They were also scared like the passengers and only Hikaru took the matter in his hands.
He walked towards his seat where Lucas and Lucian were standing and looking at him.
He said, " Brats, quietly sit on your respective seat. ".
Lucas and Lucian, both saluted him out of instincts and said, " Yes Sir! " and sat on their respective seat. Everyone looked at them with weird expression—even the agent. The agent and exhaled a deep breath and sat on his seat while smoking. Everyone were looking at them but the remaining crew calmed them down and made them sit on their seats too.
The ice pilots were flying the airplane with very impressive efficiency.
Around 12 hours were still left for them to arrive in India. Lucas looked around, he didn't see the blue skipy hair guy. He was not here anymore. He was gone, gone somewhere but nobody knew where. He either died or just vanished from here.
Lucas, Lucian and the agent were hungry. They called an air hostess to bring food and after filling their stomach, Lucian and Lucas went to sleep.
The temperature was moderate and the wind speed was moderate also. There was not a single group of birds around, only the airplane, the clouds and the whispers of the wind.
Many were still scared, many could not believe what happened in the flight, many were asleep, many understood the situation and went on the alert mode. The economy class was empty, there was no one as every passenger there was dead.
Meanwhile, something else was going on in a very dark and unknown place.
There were many figures standing in a unique pattern but none of their looks were clear. There was darkness all around.
There was a throne and on that throne, someone was sitting.
Suddenly, another figure entered into that dark place and came running towards the throne and stopped at a particular distance. The figure sat on it's knees and said, "King, the assasions we sent for to assassinate every single adventurer in the flight AI 116, they both are dead. The assassination failed.
The figure sitting on the throne remained silent and there was a silence for few seconds.
After few seconds, suddenly, there was light, the figure which entered that place and told the information to the figure sitting on the throne, got engulfed by fire. It started screaming, the voice was of a male.
He screamed and screamed and screamed but none helped him. Everyone there remained silent, even the one sitting on the throne. None dare to speak a word, none dare to show any emotion, none dare to move a muscle. And after few minutes, he turned to ashes, his borns turned to ashes.
12 Hours Passed,
The flight AI 116 arrived in India, it was the same flight in which Lucas, Lucian and Hikaru were present. It land on one of the most prestigious airports in India, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, is known for its world-class infrastructure and cultural design elements.
All three of them got off their flight and completed all the procedures.
After around an hour, they came out of the airport, the surrounding area was quite beautiful.
As the plane touched down at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, the bustling energy of Sahar Village and its surroundings greeted him. The airport stood like a modern fortress, its towering glass facades contrasting with the narrow, crowded streets of Andheri and Vile Parle nearby. The air was thick with the sounds of honking cars, rickshaws, and the distant hum of Mumbai's relentless heartbeat.
Luxury hotels like the JW Marriott and Hyatt Regency loomed on one side, their polished exteriors a stark contrast to the street vendors peddling vada pav and chai just a few blocks away. Amidst the chaos, the scent of fresh spices and sizzling street food hung in the air, mixing with the occasional fragrance of incense from nearby temples.
The roads, clogged with traffic, stretched out towards the Western Express Highway, which would soon take him into the heart of Mumbai. It was a city of contrasts — where ancient traditions met modern commerce, and life never seemed to stop.
The agent said to them, " Both of you open your crimson screen and check the next destination. ".
Lucas and Lucian, both opened there crimson screen.

Lucas murmured, "Sanjay Gandhi National Park? ".
They both looked towards the face of the agent.
The agent spoke, " Do not worry. A car must be coming for us".
It was around noon time in India. The sun was at their head and the month was of april, it was hot in India. The agent felt really hot, he removed his coat and loosen a tie a bit more. All three of them were sweating.
After waiting for around 10 minutes, finally a black car arrived to pick them up. It was the Maruti Suzuki Dzire.
The agent sat on the front seat where as both of them sat on the back seat. The temperature in India was quite hot, there was rarely any birds around. There were buildings more than wildlife around.
The driver offered them The Upper Crust, one of the most famous magazine about Mumbai.
Lucian took it and opened it. Lucas was also reading it with Lucian.
Lucian murmured, " City Of Dreams? ".
They felt interesting and they read even more.
The park was about 16km far away and it was going to take atleast half an hour to reach there. Until then, Lucian and Lucas decided to read the magazine but they felt asleep mid way. Whereas Hikaru was relaxing in the AC of the car and the driver was driving the car. The weather was quite hot for them.
Window of the driver was slightly opened and they could hear the calling of the shopkeepers advertising their own product by screaming. It was one of the most traditional way of attracting costumers in India. Hikaru could finally rest in the car with less worries because the driver was also an agent—though he was not as strong as Hikaru and not among the top 500.
After the drive of 45 minute, the finally arrived at the Sanjay Gandhi Park. It took them 45 minute, mostly because of the traffic.
Hikaru woke Lucian and Lucas. They both slept like a log, with no worries.
When they opened their eyes, they saw the light of the sun falling on their eyes. They could hear the chatter of the people around them as the gates of the car were open.
Both of them got out of the car, taking the air around them—it was not fresh. They even cough few times. The pollution was too much.
The agent offered them the N95 mask to wear. It was of black color.
They looked around and then towards the Sanjay Gandhi Park.
Sanjay Gandhi Park, nestled in the heart of the city, stands as a sprawling green oasis amidst the bustling urban landscape. The park, spread across acres of verdant land, offers a blend of nature's tranquility and recreational spaces. Tall trees, their canopies stretching wide, form a natural shelter, casting cool shadows on the well-manicured pathways that wind through the park. The scent of fresh grass mingles with the earthy aroma of the surrounding woods, creating a calming ambiance for visitors.
In the center of the park, a serene lake glimmers under the sun, its surface occasionally broken by the gentle ripple of fish or ducks swimming peacefully. Benches are scattered along the waterfront, providing spaces for quiet reflection or casual conversations. The sounds of chirping birds and rustling leaves fill the air, creating a soothing symphony that drowns out the noise of the city.
Various sections of the park cater to different interests. On one side, children's laughter rings out from the playground, where swings and slides are surrounded by vibrant flowers in full bloom. On the other side, an open green space accommodates joggers and fitness enthusiasts, while a few dedicated areas offer picnic spots for families and groups of friends. In the evening, the park transforms into a vibrant gathering place as people come to relax, socialize, or simply enjoy the fading light of the day.
This blend of nature, recreation, and community makes Sanjay Gandhi Park a sanctuary—a place where both the body and mind can find respite from the daily grind. Whether for a moment of solitude or shared joy, the park holds a timeless appeal for all who enter.
To them, it looked really beautiful. It was kind of breath taking. Both of them were blocking the sunlight using their right hand where as the agent was lighting another cigarrate and the driver was inside the car. All the people around were in hurry or sat somewhere near with their crimson screen open.
The park was not empty, it had more than thousands of people. All from the age of 5 to 70+. All of them were called by the crimson screen and there were also agents standing outside the park, guarding it.
Hikaru, Lucian and Lucas walked towards the entrance of the park. One of the guy, who was not an agent, asked Hikaru for his license. He showed him his license.
The man was quite fatty and was wearing formals. He had no hairs and his eyes were black. His skin was quite dark and he was wearing Indian traditional accessory in his right hand, it was a type of bangle which in India is known as, 'Kada'.
Hikaru showed him his license and the man joint both of his hands, his hands positioned near his chest and he said, "Welcome, sir Hikaru, sir Lucian and sir Lucas. ".
Lucian and Lucas, both were surprised to hear their name because they never told him.
His palm were pressed together—hands folded in prayer position.
Hikaru said, " Brats, go inside. I have no permission of coming inside. ".
Lucian and Lucas could only look at the face of Hikaru and smile.
They both walked inside the park and the first thing they saw was something which shocked them pretty much. The blue spiky hair man was standing inside the park, his hands in his pocket and his eyes closed.
