The Next Epic

Getting the Fifth Guy- Pari

Pari:-

I had to travel 600 km from Chennai to Hampi. This is where Veda Vyas had told me to go to find the fifth one. I was lonely, my only company was my spear and my jeep. 

All these started 2 years back, in Dev Lok. A messenger of Kali had reached the doors of Dev Lok. The message said that he had got to know the location of Shambhala, (the future birthplace of Kalki) and he was going to destroy it within a span of 5 years. The guy having this message was Koka (general of Kali's army). The message also read out that Kali is now the Emperor of the whole world, his reach is towards all the human being's mind.

Fearing the consequences, all gods went to Lord Vishnu and narrated what happened and asked Lord Vishnu to find a solution. Lord Vishnu said that it was impossible for him to take his next avatar before the specified time. He also added and said that his Chiranjeevi Avatar-Parashuram will offer whatever help they need. 

Hearing this, Lord Rudra proposed a plan. He asked Lord Vaayu, King Yudhishtir, Lord Vishnu to choose  4 teenagers. Lord Vaayu choose Pavan, King Yudhishtir choose me, Lord Vishnu choose Vish and Aditi. At last Lord Rudra, himself choose Aaditya. Each one of the chosen ones got a weapon once used by the chosen god. I got King Yudhishtir's spear, Pavan will get Lord Vaayu's mace, Vish and Aditi got Lord Vishnu's sword and Bow-arrow. Lord Rudra gave his mighty Trident to Aaditya. Then he asked Rishi Parashuram to train all of us to fight and keep off Kali from coming to Shambhala.

Here we are trying to master our weapons, where Aaditya, Aditi, and myself have already mastered it whereas Vish cannot even lift his weapon.

Just as I was scolding Vish for the incapability to be a part of this group, I spotted a long, muscular, well-built, and handsome man with a Golden Mace in his hand.  I parked my jeep and rushed towards him, I felt like I've seen him somewhere. This guy... had the same hairstyle, the same jawline, the same packs and biceps of a man I had seen in my dreams yesterday. He looked familiar to my eyes. I came near him and asked if his name was Pavan. He nodded in agreement. Without further ado, I took my spear and made him unconscious. 

To be honest, it was very difficult to lift Pavan. I had to get all my strength to lift him up.

Using the power of my spear, we both reached Rameshwaram just when Aditi with Aadi and that Vish were getting down from their jeep.

I was no longer able to bear Pavan's weight, so I woke him up. 

Vish was staring at me, I was staring at Pavan, Pavan was staring at Aadi, Aadi was staring at Aditi, and Aditi was staring at Vish... We all in chorus said- "I've seen you in my dream."

Just the next moment we burst into laughter...
