Fatal - Chapter 13

Victor – ” I will not hold this hatchet . ”

Ben – ” But you have to hold this and aim it to that wall . ”

Leo – ” Victor , don’t feel shy . Hold it . ”

Victor – ” No I won’t when I had lifted this hatchet earlier then ….. . ”

Jacob – ” Complete your sentence , Victor . ”

Victor – ” Then we all know what happened .”

Silas – ” Not all of us know the whole incident. ”

Victor – ” I don’t think so . We all know the back story of this incident . ”

Jacob – ” Silas why aren’t you saying that Callie is the only one present here who did not know the back story , directly ? Why are you forming a zigzag pattern when the line is straight ? ”

Leo – ” Oh ! God , am I dreaming . I can’t believe that this is the very same Jacob who used to give huge speeches when he had only one important sentence to speak . But now , he is showing some signs of maturity .”

Silas – ” I didn’t want to take Callie’s name as this might cause trouble to Jacob , that is why I was avoiding to take her name ? But this fool Victor didn’t get it . ”

Victor ( to himself ) – ” This Silas is thinking that I didn’t get what he was trying to say ? I understood that he pointed Callie but I was trying to avoid this question . But now this Jacob has called out her name . Now what to do ? I will have to tell her the back story . ”

Victor – ” Let’s we all get to leave this building first then I will tell Callie the back story of this incident . ”

Leo – ” You can narrate her the story while walking . ”

Victor ( to himself ) – ” I will punch on Leo’s face if he didn’t shut his mouth . You can narrate her the story while walking , my foot . I am trying to avoid this topic but they all are aiming me . ”

Victor – ” Ben , is there any other way left to leave this building. ”

Ben – ” At present there is only and only one way left to leave this building . ”

Victor – ” Then what are you waiting for ? Tell us so that we can implement it as soon as possible . ”

Ben – ” Just lift this hatchet once and we all shall be free . ”

Victor – ” No , it’s not safe I can’t take such a deadly gamble . ”

Silas – ” Yes this hatchet is not fit for any sort of use . Victor is right we can’t take any risk here in this building who is on the verge of collapsing . ”

Ben – ” But listen to me ”

Leo – ” No , Ben we can’t use this hatchet here as this building is not safe and I am sure that this building can’t take a second earthquake. ”

Jacob – ” Let’s find a other way out from this building before it’s too late . ”

[ Suddenly a loud noise came ]

Victor – ” What was that noise ? ”

Silas – ” Seems to be coming from the posterior side of the school building . ”

Leo ( peeped outside from the nearby window ) – ” Oh ! look there the posterior part of the school building has collapsed . ”

Everyone present there began to look out , then suddenly an another loud noise is heard by them .

Victor – ” What’s going on in this building ? ”

Silas – ” Can’t you see this building is collapsing . ”

Callie – ” Please take me out from this building . I don’t want to stand here and wait for my death to come . ”

Jacob – ” Victor , lift that hatchet . It’s our only way left to leave this building . ”

Victor – ” But Jacob , you know why I don’t want to lift this hatchet again . ”

Callie – ” What had happened before when you have lifted this hatchet ? Which has made you to avoid lifting it up again and risk our lives . ”

Victor – ” You won’t believe it , Callie let it go .”

Callie – ” No before I die I want to hear the reason which will be the cause of my death . As because of that reason you are not lifting this hatchet . ”

Victor – ” Don’t talk about death . We all will live . ”

Callie – ” Please tell me the truth . I just want to know the truth anyone will say anything or will keep staring at me . ”

Leo – ” You just look around your surroundings , Callie . ”

Callie – ” Must be a very high intensity earthquake which had made our school building look like this . This place transformed from heaven to hell . ”

Leo – ” That fierce earthquake originated from this small hatchet . ”

Callie – ” How is this possible ? How can a hatchet give rise to such a fierce earthquake ? ”

Victor – ” I warned you Callie that you will not believe me . Now you have heard the truth . When I had lifted this hatchet earlier it has made our school look like this . That is why I don’t want to lift this hatchet again ? As this building will surely collapse if an another earthquake striking it’s nearly collapsed body. ”

Callie – ” Okay , now I understand why were you hesitating in lifting this hatchet ? Let’s we all get prepared for our death . ”

Ben – ” No don’t lose your hope that easy . It’s my duty to keep you all alive and I will perform this task effectively without any fail .”

Victor – ” But how will you do this ? ”

Ben – ” I just want your trust and you for lifting this hatchet . ”

Victor – ” But this building ”

Ben – ” If we all were to die here then why don’t we give this hatchet a last try ? ”

Silas – ” He is right , Victor you should lift this hatchet . ”

Leo – ” Yes and if we die then it will not be your fault . ”

Jacob – ” Just lift it I can’t keep my eyes open to see my death approaching me . ”

Callie – ” We all should hold each others hand tightly and face the death together . ”

All of them holds each others hand with fear of dead in their eyes but a smile of the fact that they all are together in this situation on their lips .

Silas – ” Victor , Just lift it without any further conversation on this hatchet . ”

Victor – ” Yes I am going to lift it . ”

Ben – ” Before you lift it , Victor . You have to put on all concentration on your aim which is that wall . When you feel you are ready just face the bit of the hatchet towards the wall . Rest it will do on its own . ”

Leo – ” How did you know this ? ”

Ben – ” I will answer all your questions but first I have to make sure that you all should remain alive . ”

Callie – ” Best of luck , Victor our kivtes is in your hands . Just concentrate . ”

Silas – ” May God bless you and make you successfull in this act . ”

Victor – ” Let me proceed ”

Victor lifts the hatchet and the hatchet bagan to glow again . Victor with all his concentration aimed at the wall and then a beam of light originated from the hatchet and striked against the wall and made a tunnel for everyone present there to leave the building .

All of them had crossed the tunnel and were now standing in the playground of the school campus . They all were happy as they had left that building safely without any major injuries on them and were sure that they were not going to die in that trembling school building and will surely live.
