THE 8 SAVIOURS

The training

Gabriel walked inside a large room and we walked inside,

“This is your training room”

“WHAAAATTT, no sceneries, nothing” Samarth groans in disappointment. Just a few seconds ago he was so scared only by the thought of killing real people that I thought he would faint and now he is back to his normal self, how fast he transitions back to his normal self is scary and commendable at the same time.

“Listen kid, you think this is a joke, you are supposed to save lives and if it wouldn’t have been such an emergency situation, we would never choose immature brats like you to be the milites, but unfortunately we desperately need some of you present here and you are lucky you brat that they have good team work with you”

Damn he is one hell of a serious person, he was actually able to hurt Samarth.

“Let’s start”

I saw him approach corner of a wall, slide down something clicks a few buttons and the walls start to expand and suddenly we are standing in a huge desert like space and there are lots of human like figurine.

“First, I’ll check your shooting skills, and then survival skills. The actual competition lasts for a week, so survival is very important. You will have to survive different terrains, defeat other otherworldly creatures and then there will be combat, between people who survive the survival test. Stealth is very important because you will have to move and collect undetected.”

He clicks another button and we all get a crossbow in our hands

“cooolllll” Samarth whispers this time

“Shoot the human figurines”

I start shooting with perfect aim, ha I am very good at this crossbow shooting or throwing things, I have perfect aim, guns suck they have recoil that I can’t handle, crossbows have very less recoil and I use them like pro, even in games.

I look around and see everybody sucks at this, whoa wait, Arjun is okayish but still I AM GONNA BE THE COMBAT LEADER!!!!.

“Okay Stop, next, poison darts, throw them” Gabriel yells.

Suddenly the crossbow vanishes and a tube comes to our hand, we have to blow darts that far??

“It’s a deadly poison, 3 seconds, that’s the max anyone has survived it, but it works perfectly only if it hits, the correct spot and there are only two spots, the two sides where the neck joins the shoulders, but it’s only for humans. There are different spots for different creatures and the one who would be best at it would have to remember all the spots.”

I blow the darts, well they sure go along distance, well it doesn’t hit the correct spot that’s marked, but atleast it’s not that far.

I see again people suck at this, even Arjun.

“Okay stop, next throw a ball, it will show how far and perfectly you can throw objects, each of you will see a red target you will have to aim and throw perfect and exactly at the target.”

Again the darts vanish and a small-.. oomph man this ball is heavy, I can’t even throw it halfway, I see Anubhav throws all of them perfectly, Arjun is pretty good at it too.

“Okay next guns,………”

Time flies by and I suck at every other thing, I guess everybody have their strong.

“Okay, that’s it for today, we will do survival tomorrow. So Avijita and Aaravi is for crossbow, Anubhav for throwing, Arjun and Shubham long range gun shooters, Samarth and Samara short range shooters, Shifa hand combat, and the special poison dart will be given to Avijita.”

“You are not qualified to use it yet but you are the closet to getting it to perfection.”

We all thank him and walk out everybody chattering how great they have done, forgetting that this is going to lead us to kill people, real live people.

“Where is Samara ??”

Samarth’s voice breaks through my thoughts, and I start to looks around, where is she?

Suddenly Aaravi runs towards us, panting for breath, “Guys,…..someone….someone….took Samara.”
