I faced a brief writer's block while writing this chapter. Typed and deleted several times.don't know how it has turned out at last. Please give ur valuable comments.CHAPTER 10Chief watched the pristine looking young lady before him, who seemed visibly shaken, clutching the wrist of a tall, lean handsome man who appeared grim. These two brought him back from death of which he was so sure of before he lost awareness 6 days back, which gave the impression that they are extremely skilled. Had he not been a Black wolves' Chief and they, the prisoners, he would definitely appreciate their good work, considering Dr Swara's young age and brief career..
It was Chief's first proper interaction with the couple. He addressed, " Well, Dr Bose. What's your opinion about their injuries? I hope you saw them."
"mmm... The wounds are deep, Moreover they lost blood... some canines had ripped them apart.." She replied staring at the ground.
"What canines? I know there are animals in the jungle but they haven't attacked, ever! Would you elaborate? " He looked astonished.
"May be some wild dogs or.."She hesitated for a moment, "wolves... May be they were rabid... In that case more

Black wolves had gathered for an urgent meeting while Swasan was in the OT operating on Ariel. Pin drop silence was the appropriate phrase to depict the ambience .
"I hope you all are aware about the recent crisis. " Chief started.
"What to do now? Should we shift the camp?"
Kal proposed,"If the dogs or wolves whatever... are rabid... we'll have to pay hefty price."
"That's insane! This place is perfect.Well hidden, water source is nearby. Moreover storehouse, solar power, our helipad, shooting range, torcher cells everything!"Shamsher exclaimed in denial.
" We set the mobile network too!Didn't u remember how long we worked for it, to set up the towers? One year! It took one LONG year! " Anuva voiced her disapproval too.
Chief looked thoughtful for a moment, " It is impractical and nearly impossible to move the camp in such a short notice... Increase folks for night patrols... Drive away the animals, may be they are lost from their pack. If they are rabid, will kill them.:
" But , Chief! More attack means more injured members!" Agni stated.
" Kyu na hum Swara ko, I mean Sanskar ko bhi zinda rakhe? They will be be useful to us." Laksh suggested
"Woh log humare prisoners, Laksh! How long we'll refrain them from escaping, when we can't keep them tied. After than near death experience, don't you think they'll try?" Hades protested, with a hint of mocking in his voice.
"WOH tum logo ko bewakoofi tha! I'm telling you, spare the doctors! Otherwise, you'll have to suffer!"clenching his jaw, Laksh declared.

Sanskar was filled with regrets as Swara got trapped in this deadly dangerous mission of his. He could feel her gloomy mood as they were operating on Ariel. He had handed her another tracking device to insert through the deep, ragged wound of the injured. Sanskar couldn't stand her distressed state any longer, so decided to distract her mind.
" Swara, you never told me why you stay alone with your family?I mean you have mom and brother right?"
"When Papa died, me, mom and Sargam bhai shifted to London as My Nanaji and Mamu lived there. Dada Dadi ki to pehle hi death huyi thi. Papa was their only child ," Swara answered while cleaning and Stitching the wounds."Dadaji Doctor they, unki khawaish tha mein bhi unki medical school se graduation karu. To keep his last words, I came back here. Uss wakt bhai ka ek accident hua tha. Toh mom reh gayi."
"Phir?"
"Phir kya? I continued to stay in hostel. I know she had to arrange for both my fees and bhai's law school fees then. She couldn't get better paying job than the one she had in London. I told her I can manage.Well she agreed after lots of arguments." She eyes smiled a little
"Daring bhai behen! Sargam Bose ek criminal lawyer, and Swara Bose traumatic surgeon! Tell me one thing, don't get me chauvinistic, ha! Female doctors are rare in this field, as least I never met one before you. What made you choose a speciality where you'll have to face results of violence and trauma everyday? You've to handle lots of police cases and dangerous criminals, didn't you consider?"
Swara suddenly looked distant, " We had a super hero... our Papa... He was major of Indian Army, always brave. He always wanted us to work for law and order. Woh kehte Army mein na sahi, do something jisme kisike justice mile, ya kisike sath kuch bura ho. So Bhai got into Law school." Swara took a gap."But I had t"But I had to fulfil Dadaji's wish too. Toh socha training ki bad koi defence, police ya special force ki hospital me join karungi. "
" Toh tum hamesha aise akela rehne ki plan banayi! " Sanskar sounded astonished. "Again away from family?"
Swara's tone turned lighter,her eyes had a mischievous glint, "Akeli? Kisne kaha? Koi tall,dashing, handsome army man ya IPS officer ya secret agent ko shaadi kar leti! New family, hai na!"
Sanskar stilled for a moment hearing her to marry someone. He couldn't understand why that idea looked so unfavourable to him.
On the other hand, she was no longer sad and tensed. That made him feel relieved. He teased in mocked hurt voice, "Ouch! Kaisi Mangetar ho tum? Mere samne koi aur se shaadi ki baat kar rahi ho? Arey ha! Army men ya IPS ko list se kat do... teesri option accha rahega, hai na?" Saying this he winked.
"Sanskar!" Swara exclaimed. She thanked her stars as her tomato red cheeks were hidden by mask. She huffed in fake anger, " If I hadn't gloves on my hands, I would've killed you!"
Both of them then burst in laughters...
They both wondered how this OT supposed to be the place of planning and plotting... Now had become another place for tending their bleeding hearts.[/FONT]

The black wolves slept very late that night .Night guards' senses were strung high on a cord, watching out for the slightest movements of the lurking canines. Owls hooted to declare their rise from daytime slumber... It was way past midnight... The watchers spread around the area to shield more area. Some faint noise entered Yudh's ears, which sounded like someone's footsteps on dry leaves. He kept following the moving source, probing deeper and darker in the woods... As the steps got quicker he raised his pace... He was frantically removing the branches that came in his way... He reached the part where the trees were placed very close, as like almost hugging sideways... Still the sound source managed to keep itself hidden in this prolonged hide and seek game... Yudh was nearly running now, when he heard some sound behind him... He sharply looked backwards but saw nothing... As soon as he turned forwards, 4-5 towering black creatures jumped on him.
Yudh couldn't stood the sudden force and fell on his back. The canines aim their fangs and claws mercilessly at him. He attempted to shout at first, but tried to save his face by hands seeing one creature going for it. The creature then reluctantly went for his neck instead...
The victim had fainted due to pain and massive blood loss. Immediately the canines retreated their claws, turned obedient and gentle. Their attention now shifted to a tall shadow that crept out behind a tree. They rushed towards there wagging their tails.
The shadow lit a small pen torch and sat down... 5 black German Shepherds now could be seen,competing for licking a man's face.
The man took special affection to one of them and patted it's head, "Well done Zeppo! Good boy!" Zeppo returned the affection.
The man then looked at his watch, neared his lips to it and muttered, " SSR speaking... yes another down... Lay low, keep shiftin your positions ... Yes, they did amazing job... feed them well, and Aah! Give the best bone to Zeppo. He avenged today on my behalf. Tooth for tooth! Throat for throat!"A devilish grin formed on his lips...

Swara and Sanskar were tied up in chair, they were facing each other. The room was shadowy, only a small bulb lit hanging from the roof... The black wolves had surrounded them, they looked vicious now! Ragini came near Swara, pulled her by hair, and slapped. She winced in pain.
" You filthy scums! You dared to backstab us!
We came to know everything!" Chief uttered, his words poisoned with disgust,
"We know you are behind the attacks!" Now Hades was circling them like a leopard. He stopped in front of Sanskar, who said.
"You are mistaken. You're again misunderstanding us."
Hades punched at his face in anger, blood trickled down from his nose...Now Laksh faced him clenching his jaw, and growled, " Oh, is it? We know exactly who you are, Dr Sanskar Oberoi!"
Then he taunted,his eyes red shot now, "Or Should I say SSR?"
Swara gasped in shock.To her horror she heard Laksh to continue , "You and that b*tch girlfriend of yours have to pay! Black wolves never leave betrayers!" Saying this he raised his gun and shot.
BANG!!!!!
"SANSKAR!!!"
