Chapter 27 (installment 1):

Chotu became impatient of this waiting, he was sitting outside from evening and still he couldn't trace any activity in the surroundings of the mansion or NC's mansion. He only saw Mahatre's car entered NC's resident. And surprising him, everything was going normal there, the team took position, but they found no suspicious activity there.

Chotu : (in mind) Yeh log toh kuch karta hi nahi...bekar main pehra de rahi hoon. Aur yeh mosquitoes...micro vampires hain...saalon ne saare khoon choos lia mera...

His cursing session was about to going a bit further, when Shree informed him about their senior's disappearance, he was worried for them and wanted to accompany Shree, but he stopped him. He was keenly listened to every sound coming to him through his communicator. H was again scared when he last contact with Shree and was mentally decided to enter the mansion, Shree contacted him and asked him to go for action. He immediately activated all teams except NC's place and he sent another group of officers to join the people went inside with Shree and covered the passageways that, if any of those smugglers showed up, they could arrest them. After some more minutes, he could hear his teammates and seniors voices, and to his relief, Shree told him that he found them. Chotu thanked his god, immediately and received a new order from Rathod.

He was wondering what h should do next, Shree and Sonali Joined him. Shree& him moved to NC's back door, while Sonali was sent to ETF van, off course they denied all her protests. Shree was continuously monitoring rest four's movement and found them to move at the opposite direction to NC's resident.

Shree : Chotu, yeh jagah...yeh highway ki taraf...hillock ki opposite side main hain na?

Chotu : Haan. Kyun.             

Shree : That's  why we never saw them entering or exiting the mansion...ek kaam kar...tu wahan jaa...aur extra ammunition le jaana, un logon ki pass gun nahi hain...agar who log aise hi bahar nikal gaye toh phir se un logon kii haath lag sakta hain...

Chotu : But who log aab tak waha honge?

Shree : Agar hue toh?

Right then Arjun asked Chotu to reach that place with backup team. And Shree passed him a meaningful look. Chotu ignored Shree and got up.

*************

Rathod was about to open the door, while Arjun put his hand on his.

Arjun : Shh..Rathod. there's people outside.

Rathod carefully opened the door, without making any noise. And peeped outside.

Rathod : It's a gas station...& two trucks are outside...and...one is NC's supply van... and another one is a container trailer...

Arjun : How many people are there?

Rathod : I can see four...loading that container...and Vipul... talking to someone...

Arjun : Ok...then six...now...

Aisha : Sir aur vi toh ho sakta hain?...

Arjun : Haan, (in communicator) Chotu, tum log kahan ho?

Chotu : Five minute's sir...we're coming.

Saakshi : Pura pahaar ghumk aa raha hain...time toh lagega..

Rathod : Ok, girls, you'll stay here and cover this way...Rawte and I are going outside...we'll surprise them and...

Aisha : Lekin bahar log zyada hue toh?

Arjun : Chotu's on the way...jab dono taraf se attack hogi toh...

Saakshi : Haan but you don't have weapons...

Rathod : Thanks saakshi...but we don't need them...we'll snatch theirs..

Aisha : Sir, chotu kii aane tak wait karte hain...

Chotu : (In microphone) Sir, we're here, where are you?

Rathod : We're inside the station...attack them. Make sure nobody escapes.

Arjun and Sameer instructed girls for one last time and retired from the room, tiptoed.

***************

The smugglers were loading their trucks, with haste. Vipul and a tall-skinny man were supervising them.

Vipul : Hurry up ladies, they could reach her any time. ( to that man) Where's another truck?

Man : aab tak toh aa jana chahiye tha...do main adjust karr lete hain...

Vipul : Kaise? My van is too small...I'm afraid we've to left half of these here.

Right then they were attacked from both sides. The Assault team came through the front door, while Arjun and Sameer attacked from back. Within no time the whole gang was under their claw.

Saakshi and Aisha joined them, when Arjun was asking Vipul about the smuggled diamonds.

Vipul : Diamonds? Which diamonds? W only smuggle electronics...go and check those boxes..

Rathod : Don't act smart Vipul, We know everything, that you your boss NC and Mohali are involved into this racket...we know about mermaid also.

Vipul : (smiled) If you know everything, then go and do your work, why you are asking me?

Arjun : Kyun ki hum jaan na chahte hain inn sab main tum kahan fit hote ho?

Vipul : Main toh sirf ek employee hoon...utna hi karti hoon jitna mujhe order dia jaata hain...

Aisha : Aur yeh order tum kisse leti ho? NC ya Yatin ...

Skinny man : Yatin? He's dead right? We just use his empty house...

Arjun : Stop that drama...We know you people had a meeting today...wahan kaun kaun thi...aur yeh truck kahan jaa rahi thi ? speak up...

Vipul : Meeting!!! Who toh subha ho gaya...12pm...aur tab se dekh raha tha yeh poliec aur plain dressed officers were wondering around...actually I've smelt it long back when you people came to NC's place, then I found that footprint at our backdoor...I knew if NC found it he'll do something stupid...so I arranged this meeting and arranged a new warehouse to transfer goods from here...

Rathod : Banao matt...uss message main midnight likha tah...

Vipul : Haan, par humne ulta para tha...

With that he started laughing at the red faces of  five of them. Chotu was about to smack him...when that skinny man pushed Rathod on him and Vipul ran towards the store room like a rabbit, surprising all of them.

Aisha ran behind him, and others were about to follow them when they heard gunshots behind them...another truck was arrived and they attacked ETF to release their men.

*******************

Aisha followed Vipul through the tunnel and reached inside the basement hall, she lost him. She guessed he must went upstairs and moved to the stairs when he attacked her from behind. Aisha was fast to budge the initial shock and answered him with all of her skills. They were having an unarmed combat where Vipul was using his physical strength and Aisha was using her skills she earned from her training. Vipul was beaten up well by her but he didn't accepted his defeat and picked up a candle stand. He hit Aisha with it and her left arm was injured due to it. She fell down on ground and saw Vipul was raising the stand over hr had, she closed her eyes, prepared herself to feel the pain on her head, instead she heard his scream.

It was Saakshi who hit that man from behind. Vipul just threw her away to another corner to the room and ran upstairs.

Aisha gathered herself up and moved to the other end of the room where Saakshi fell. But before she reach there, Saakshi straighten up, holding her head.

Saakshi : Aahh...that monster...(looked at Aisha) You ok?

Aisha : Haan...

Saakshi : Toh chalo...uss saand ko pakarte hain...

Aisha nodded and both followed Vipul.

It became a blindman's bluff to the girls...they chased vipul through the mansion. And other officers inside there helped them but it seems thy caught a tarter...Vipul was managed to slip away each time. Finally Aisha narrowed him down at the corner of mansions backdoor, but he again hit her injured hand and moved outside, she managed to suppress her pain a bit and chased him...he lead her to another edge of the hillock.

Aisha knew she couldn't  catch him alone, he was too strong and she is injured, besides she didn't had her weapon. She found Vipul looking at her with a crooked smile on his face.

Vipul : Go back girl..you can't catch me...

Aisha : I've already cornered you...and this place is full of cops now..you can't escape...

Vipul : Your two world famous ACP couldn't held me for long...you people couldn't catch me inside that mansion...and now here.. you alone want to arrest me? In your dreams lady...move away...or else I've to hurt you...

Aisha : You can't leave Vipul...better you surrender.

Vipul : (in cold voice) I'm not kidding officer...You can't stop me and you know what happened with that girl, Sonali? This time I wouldn't mind kill a girl..but I really don't want to..

Saakshi : Accha? So kind of you...Aisha let him go..

Aisha : Saakshi ?

Saakshi : Haan Aisha, let him go...yahan se kahan jayenge yeh? Yahan se NC ke ghar tak..no..actually highway tak polic hain...kisiko bina dikhe inko jaana hain toh inki pass do tarike hain...ek, gayab ho jao, using magic you know...& dusra...yahan se kund jaana...khai gehri hain ..don't worry, seedha upar hi jaoge. Best of luck! (she showed her thumbs up to Vipul)

Both girls moved and bowed a little...making a way for him.

Vipul nervously looked at them and walked forward. Saakshi gave him and assuring smile and gestured to move forward. But when he as passing the girls, they kicked his legs and he fell down on the ground. The next thing was a shower of kicks and punched on him. Both girls was using him as their practice pole. Vipul took a little while to consume the shock and then he again hit those girls.. he slapped Saakshi on her head and pushed her aside, and threw Aisha over his head, he looked once at them and made off.

Saakshi felt a big stone fell on her had...she was feeling dizzy..saw stars in front of her eyes and then her surroundings covered by darkness. She tried to keep her eyes open but she failed.

Aisha felt same..and in addition she fell on her injured hand which made her cry on the top of her voice. Little she knew, her scream brought Saakshi back. She heard her voice.

Saakshi : Aisha...thik ho?

Aisha : Aahh...haan...tum?

Saakshi : Pata nahi...

Aisha : Utth paoge?

Saakshi : Haan...

She got up with great efforts and saw Aisha leaning against the wooden fence, trying to steady herself. Aisha saw her and smiled at her. She returned her a smile and moved to her, but before she reach her, she heard a breaking sound and saw Aisha disappeared from that place..along with a portion of that fence.

Saakshi rushed, screaming her teammate's name.
