The Valley of Storms - A Love Story

Saving the City

Sagarika P.O.V.

'Ask them to stop the minute by minute coverage now! They have the television on as well.'

'Are you sure? The country want to know what is happening!'

'Not at the cost of killing more than five hundred people. Shut that down. At least fifteen minutes interval between what is happening and what is reported. Make them go and ask for reactions meanwhile, if you want.'

Adi and Deby were tearing each other continuously. He was right tough, I have to admit. Deby realised it too and did the necessary.

'Ravi, I do not want to die,' we heard Nigaar talking.

'We are hostages, not shot,' Ravi said.

'I think I was touched by one of the bullets,' she said.

There was a moment of silence in the room. We couldn't react to what she just said, or we didn't want to.

'Nigs, it is not time for you to joke,' Ravi said.

'I'll come closer and you see. I am bleeding. Near my kidney,' she said.

There was the sound of another shot. We maintained our silence.

'All fine this time,' Ravi said, to us, 'Nigaar has been shot. She has a bullet in her. Depth unknown. Need to remove her top for that.'

'Can he hear us,' I asked.

'Positive,' Adi replied.

'Can you examine it Ravs?' I asked.

'Sags! I.... I... am... scared. She's bleeding too much.'

Another bullet was fired.

'Ravi?' I said, worried.

He shouted loudly. It echoed in the room.

'Why her?' he asked.

'Ravi, is Nigs conscious?' Deby asked.

'Not for long I think,' he said.

'Stand up Ravi,' I said, 'talk to them.'

'What will I say?'

'Repeat what we tell you to. Try to connect us to them.'

Deby called Chetan. He was in our office. He brought along the information asked.

'What brings you here?' Debt asked.

'I have brought all the information you asked for Rika. I hope you guys can help. We need it.' 

'Thank you, I am leaving for one of the hotels. Try getting me an access. Ravi will contact you soon. Manage to make him speak to the terrorists, Deby?' I said.

She nodded and I left. I had a plan.

After long time an update, hope you liking it!
