A/N: Seems like I'm on a writing spree... ok, this might not  have that detailed action sequences and all... might've got some details wrong but please put up with me here cuz I admit, I suck at writing fight scenes.

Warning : Auto corrects and typos are always behind my back so please forgive me for any mistakes. And please don't get mad at my attempt at typing Hindi, it is NOT my First or Second language so I am prone to make mistakes.

Flashback

The first mission. That was all Khalid could think as he looked around the table as Aditi debriefed whatever information she had collected about the target. And he would be lying if he said he didn't feel nervous, especially with the looks Kabir was giving him right now.

He didn't know what to think of it as. As the Colonel had warned him, it was hell. It seemed like Kabir was going all out on him, like he was taking revenge for whatever his abbu had done and he didn't know what to think of it.

And now? The way he'd been staring at him throughout the debrief was unnerving him and was making him quite uncomfortable. It was almost as if Kabir was expecting him to make a wrong move during the mission. Kabir smirked as he saw his uneasiness and proceeded to look towards the rest of the team, noting all the points they were giving.

He finally said "This guy is our mission. A wanted terrorist who we've been behind for a very long time. Any mistakes or slips, I will consider it a personal attack against me. Do you get it?" he said to everyone but eyed at Khalid, like he was trying get that point through him and Khalid shifted uneasily, muttering a "Yes sir" with the rest of the team.

So they planned, the main plan, the back up plan and its own back up plan and the whole time he could feel Kabir's eyes on him, almost like he was trying to judge him, find any mistakes or wrong moves, correcting any flaws that he could see and finally, they were ready.

Everything went along smoothly, everyone got into their roles seamlessly and they just waited for the signal from Kabir to attack. And when the signal came, they busted the place with quite pomp and splendor.

The fight also was quite short and Khalid cursed as someone took him unaware from the behind. He could sense Kabir watching each and every move of his from wherever he was fighting. He knew that it was a test for him to prove himself and he most likely was failing miserably with the way he was missing the people who try and attack him on the side of his blind spot.

He felt someone suddenly push him from behind and was taken by surprise when he found himself on the ground with a gun in front of his face. 'Shit, thanks dad' he thought bitterly as he waited for the gun to shoot when suddenly the guy fell down, a knife poking out of his neck.

And then Kabir was standing above him, hand held out and he just stared, surprised. 'Arey, are you going to get up or not?'  his eyes seemed to ask and Khalid almost blushed as he took his hand and got up.

'Now go and be careful. I won't be there to save your ass all the time' Kabir conveyed silently as he took out the next guy who was heading to attack Khalid from behind. It went on like that, everyone having the other's back when they didn't notice something until the boss entered the scene.

'Go and prove yourself now. Or are you going to back off now?' His eyes taunted him.
'Up for the challenge sir' he shot back as he charged towards the target. And as expected, he fell back down hard after getting a few hits in.

Kabir just shook his head and sighed, heading in to take his own hit before realising that he had underestimated the guy as he quickly recovered from Kabir's hits and pushed him back, the unexpected punches causing him to lose balance and fall back next to Khalid.
