Chapter 3

"Sit down.. It's not like I am going to shoot you.." Master said.

"I didn't commit a crime, Master. And you know that." Arnav said, sitting down.

Vikram got up himself, rummaging the bookshelf behind him, took out a battered copy of some book, and put it before Arnav.

"Open page 74, bottom most rule..."Vikram said slowly. Already tired of the times they had went through this whole piece of act.

Arnav had a slight smile on his face, opening the book. Like this piece of garbage ever stopped him. He was Arnav Singh Raizada for god's sake! Who were they kidding? Putting rules and regulations on him?

Still, to humor his master, he read it out aloud...

"No E-class is supposed to be harmed by a hunter, unless and until, it has, in any way, caused disturbance in the normal living world . Disturbance thus accounting for revelation of its true form, human casualties, or material destruction. Any hunter found guilty of killing an E-class by breaking this rule will be disarmed of his weapon, license and subjected to 5 mortal years in prison."

"Arnav, till when do you expect me to shield you?" Vikram asked, knowing very well that a full outburst was on its way..

"I don't want you shielding me. I DID NOT do anything wrong! Sooner or later, that E-class would have hurt people.. It was only logical to put two bullets in his head."

"ENOUGH!!! Do you have any idea how much fake destruction I had to generate to save you from them?? Do think they are blind?? Dumb?? That they won't realize a Raizada out on Rampage?? When the hell are you going to stop GODDAMMIT?? I have lost count of how many you have killed!! And I am TIRED!! I won't be around saving your ass forever!!" Vikram lashed out..

"Nobody asked you to!!" Arnav stormed out of there, blood boiling upto an uncontrollable phase.

Arnav knew very well the seal weakened in these situations. Rage was a direct enemy against his control. And even though Master was the one who had sealed him in the first place, nothing regarding the current situation of the seal was known to him..

No matter how angry Arnav was at Master, he would never ever even dream of hurting him.

So he left.

Only to find Khushi standing in front of his room, waiting with anxious honey brown eyes...

"What the..." He came to a halt, very much wanting to wipe away the red appearing all over in front of his eyes.

"Arnav?? You ok?? What happened?? What did Master say??" She asked.. breathless..

"Nothing" He grinded his teeth.. He chanted fervently.. Please leave Khushi.. Get away..

"Arnav please.. Tell me.. Why was he so strict? Did you do something?" Khushi moved near him.. Completely oblivious to the much struggling for control Arnav.

"GODDAMMIT KHUSHI!! NOTHING HAPPENED!! LEAVE!!" He grabbed both her arms fiercely.. Still controlling the beast inside him to not pierce her fragile skin.. Bruising her arms completely, pushed her away...

His own bloodshot eyes burned a little more when they saw tears well up in Khushi's eyes.. A thousand questions still evident on her face..

Arnav knew, had there been somebody else in his place, Khushi would have wielded Artemis and shred the person into a thousand pieces. But there was nothing else he could have done.. He had to get her away from him.. Somehow.. Anyhow..

He locked himself in his room.. Crashing on to the floor.. Writhing in pain.. Physical or psychological, he didn't understand.. Laid down on the ground till the burn in his eyes and his throat peaked the maximum level possible, and then soothed...
