Combat

The Plannings

The next morning, when Aadi reaches the school gate, Sam called him. Aadi went to him.

Sam said, "Hey Aadi, what's up? I hope you are alright and ready for the fight."

Aadi replied," yes, I am as ready as I can be. Let's go now. The class is about to start."

While going to class, Monty blocks their way. "Look, the losers trio is here!" Everyone around started laughing.

"You know there's no greater danger than underestimating your opponent," replied Aadi.

"You think I need to be scared from you" Monty started laughing hard.

"See you in the fight" replied Aadi and they walked away from them.

In the way, Isha suggested," you know Monty may be strong but he is not that much intelligent. We can't defeat him by strength but we may have some chance if we apply our brain."

"But how?" Questioned Aadi.

"I don't know exactly but let me think" answered Isha.

The classes started. The first class was of English literature but none of them were able to concentrate much. The other students were still glaring at him while some were making fun of their stupidity.

During the lecture, Isha asked the teacher for permission to use the restroom. After some time, when she returned to class, her face was bright and she looked extremely happy. She sat beside Aadi and give her a note. She was saying she has a great plan. She will tell her in the next lecture which was free.

Aadi waited impatiently for the lecture to finish. When the lecture finished, isha asked them to follow her. They went to an empty classroom.

"So listen, I have plan A, plan B and plan C. Our first goal would be to prevent Monty to reach the ground. If by any chance he reaches the ground, our second chance would be to prevent him to fight and if that plan fails, our last goal would be to somehow decrease his strength," told Isha

"But how would we do that?" questioned Sam.

"Our next lecture is of Maths. We have to submit a Maths assignment which was given to us last week. The teacher is very strict. If somehow we steal his assignment, he will get detention and he would not be able to reach the ground." replied Isha.

Aadi said," Wow Isha, It's an awesome plan. But wouldn't it be wrong. I mean isn't it kind of cheating."

Isha replied, "Seriously Aadi, and you think what Monty is doing is right? For a challenge or a fight, both of the players should be compatible with each other. Also if he wins, no one will ever be able to stand up against him."

Aadi questioned," Ok so what's plan B?"

Isha answered," You know there are some more boxers in our school and one of them is Arnav. Both of them are rivals. No one can say that who is better. What if we somehow make Arnav believe that Monty is flaunting that he is more powerful than him and is fighting with some to prove it. Arnav wouldn't be able to accept it and may even challenge him for a fight. You may have heard a proverb that 'always the monkey is benefitted in the fight of two cats'.
And if both of the plans fail, then I have this." Isha showed a toy like a thing to them.

Aadi asked," what's this"

Isha replied," See its a small toy that can be used as a spray. We will put something in this that can make his eyes sting. You can spray it during the fight. It may increase your chance of winning. "

Everyone got silent for a moment. Sam said," wow isha! You are amazing!"

Isha replied, "Thanks, Sam. Look Aadi I know its wrong and even after all this, you may still lose. But we have to try this once. This is a fight. He will fight it physically as he good in it and we will fight it mentally. So what's your decision?"
"Ok, I am ready for it," said Aadi.
