Vijay's POV

"Hello Vijay sir." Sohail Kureshi says.

"Sohail." I growl, even though I know he can't hear me.

"I've hear a lot about you. 100 percent success rate. Amazing agent. Lets test that shall we? You don't need to find out where I am. I will tell you. Karachi. Come. We will see who is greater." He challenges.

I put on a poker face, ready to face Sohail. Suddenly, the video changes from Sohail to Divya, Yash, Gautam, Karthik, and Ram.

"Hey!" I say, shocked to see them. The guys' faced are bruised, and I see gashes on their body. Divya has blood coming from her mouth, and she looks like she was hit badly.

"Divya!" I hear behind me. I turn around to see Shaurya. He has bruises, and his lip is bleeding.

"Shaurya!" I say.

"Vijay!" I look at the door and see Mithra.

"Mithra?" I question.

"Vijay. What's going on?" she asks.

"Mithra-"

"Go to your cabin and talk privately." Reddy sir interrupts.

"Sir?" I ask, looking at him.

"She is your life partner. She should know everything." he replies.

"Yes sir." I say. I salute him and walk out of the room, Mithra following behind me. I take her to my cabin. Closing the door, I turn around and look down at my feet.

"Vijay?" Mithra says. "What is this?"

"How did you come here?" I ask.

"Shaurya brought me."

I look up at her.

"Oh." I just reply.

"Vijay what is this place?" she asks again.

"Mithra. I am not a bank employee." I say.

"Yea. I can see that."

"Tsk. Mithra. Its not that. The bank is just a cover-up for my real job. RAW." I say.

"Why did you have to lie about your real job?!" she asks.

"I was scared. I was scared you would leave me because of my profession." I try to reason with her.

She walks towards me. She takes my hands into hers and looks into my eyes.

"I would never leave you Vijay." she whispers. "I love you."

"I love you too Mithra." I whisper back. "I love you."

Shaurya's POV

I am on my way home from meeting my distant cousin when my phone rings. I pull over and take my phone out of my pocket. It was Reddy sir calling.

"Hello sir." I say, lifting the phone.

"Shaurya, come over to headquarters immediately. Also bring Mithra with you. Come ASAP." he says.

"Sir, is everything alright?" I ask, worried.

"Just do as I say!" he shouts.

"Yes sir." I reply.

I call Mithra.

"Hello Shaurya." she says.

"Mithra, where are you?" I ask.

"At home."

"Be ready. I'm coming to pick you up in ten minutes." I say.

"Shau-" she starts, but I cut the phone and start to her house.

****

I ring the doorbell, and Mithra opens the door after a few minutes.

"Lets go." I say. I grab her hand and pull her to the bike. I get on, and she sits behind me.

"Shaurya where are we going?" she asks.

"I'll explain when we get there." I just reply. I am very worried.

"Mithra. Call Divya." I say.

"Ok." She takes out her phone and calls Divya.

"She isn't lifting the call." she says.

"Shit! Call the boys."

"Same. No reply."

"Ah!" I say, frustrated.

"Should I try Vijay?" she asks.

"No. I know where he is." I reply.

"Ok. Shaurya where are we going?" she asks again.

"You'll find out in fifteen minutes." I reply.

I stop at the red traffic light. I look to my left, and see a few people on bikes. Looking to the right, I see the same thing. I look in my mirror, and see a jeep full of people. The light turns green, and I continue driving. I keep looking in the mirror, and see the same bikes and the same jeep following me. I drive faster, trying to get away from them, and trying to keep Mithra from noticing anything wrong. Unfortunately, she realizes that something is not right.

"Shaurya, why are they following us for the past five minutes?" Mithra asks, frightened.

"Don't panic." I say.

Instead of taking a right where I was supposed to, I take a left. The same vehicles follow me.

Yes! Just what I need! I think.

I had turned into a construction sight. I stop the bike and turn it off.  Getting off, I reach into the small gun pouch, I pull out my gun and slip it into the waistband of my jeans, hiding it with my shirt. The guys circle us and turn on the lights of their vehicles. I see close to 30 people. I crack my neck and shoulders, getting ready for a hard fight.

"Shau-" Mithra says.

I put a hand up, stopping her.

"Stay on the bike." I order.

The guys get off their vehicles and circle me. One of then runs towards me, a knife raised. I dodge the knife, grab his hand, and twist it, making the knife fall out. He screams in pain, and I kick his feet off the ground. He falls with a thud and doesn't get back up. Next, two more guys run up to me from either side. I move out of the way, and they both collide. I kick one in the back, and they both fall. A guy shoots a bullet, which i manage to dodge. Soon, they all have guns out, and start shooting. I keep dodging and kicking some off their feet. Pulling my gun out, I shoot a few in the leg. The rest run away once I open fire.

"Call Vilam." I say to my smart-RAW watch.

"Hi Shau." Vilam greets me.

"Come to the construction site before Paradise flyover." I say.

"Ok. Be there in 10 minutes." he replies.

****

"Vilam bring them to HQ in the jeep. I'm going there right now." I say to Vilam when he arrives.

"Ok Shaurya. You go. Reddy sir's looking for you."

I nod and get onto my bike. My lip is bleeding and I have bruises on my face from being hit.

"Mithra." I call over to her. She walks over to me. I gesture for her to get on, and she does.

I drive to head quarters and we go to the message room. The door is open, and I walk in to see Divya and the boys tied up. The boys look like they've been hit and tortured. Divya's lip is bleeding, and she looks like she's about to faint.

"Divya!" I cry, unable to control my emotions.

I feel people talking and moving around, but my mind is only on Divya.

"Shaurya?" Reddy sir says.

"Huh?" I look at him, tears in my eyes.

Looking around, I don't see Vijay or Mithra anywhere.

"Vi-" I start to ask.

"They are in his cabin." Reddy sir replies. I just nod.

Vijay's POV

"Vijay." Mithra says.

"Hm?" I ask.

"I need to tell you something."

"Tell me." I reply.

She moves away from me.

"Vijay. I am..."
