RajNagar
Dhruva is still standing besides the ruins of Jupiter circus. Fire brigade must be coming soon but it won't be of any help now. The rain had already extinguished the fire. There was nothing left but ashes and ashes, of his family and friends and of his home . It was his whole world that has burned down . But the fire burning inside him wasn't going to burn down anytime soon.
He has recognized the person that has done this crime , the one that has killed his family and now nothing will save them from Dhruva. He might be only 15 years of age but he is not a normal child . He has learnt to fight before he could walk. And now is the time for his enemies to know that. He didn't wait there any longer. He went to face his enemies and to make them regret the day , they decided to ruin his world .****************
ACP Rajan Mehra was going through some files related to recent crimes that had happened in RajNagar. He was particularly suspicious about one such case . The case of accidental fire that destroyed the Jupiter circus. He felt that this wasn't a normal accident . It was planned. And soon, his suspicions were going to be proved right." Sir, a boy has came to the station. He said he have some evidence related to the incident of Jupiter circus ." An orderly informed him.
" Send him in ." ACP Mehra ordered him.
And soon enough , a boy of around 15 years entered his cabin . ACP Mehra looked at him intrigued.
" What evidence do you have that you claimed about? " he asked the boy .
" It wasn't an accident. It was a preplanned murder, done by the owner of rival circus and his assistant Jubisko. " He said without a trace of emotions on his face .
ACP Mehra couldn't help but feel suspicious about the boy even though his heart was telling him to trust him. But his duty required him to trust his brain and not his heart.
" Who are you and how do you know all this ? "" I am Dhruva. My mother and father worked in Jupiter circus. I saw Jubisko killing my father . I even followed him but he and his boss ran away . I was too late to save anyone . If you look closely at the accident site you will find traces of petrol and also , if you search the rival circus you will get all the evidence that is needed. "
Now Rajan Mehra was in awe of the child . He has recently lost his family and still he is thinking with a clear mind . This boy is cut out of some other material .
" I promise you son I will myself look into the matter . We will get justice for you."
Dhruv nodded but didn't say anything else . He was using all his might to remain calm. At the end he went back saying that he will wait for it .
****************
One week later , all the investigations were done . Dhruva was called to the police station and ACP Mehra attended to him personally ." All your allegations were true son . The circus is sealed and arrest orders have been issued for the culprits . We haven't been able to arrest them just yet . But we will . Meanwhile I wanted to tell you that Mr Jacob had made you the sole recipient of his property as well as the insurance money . So you have a total amount of 50 lakhs ( 5 million ) rs in your name ."
Dhruva couldn't speak . He was rendered speechless . The loss of his loved one and this gesture weighted heavy on his soul . Rajan Mehra understood his silence as well as his moist eyes well. He gave him some time. There was something about Dhruva that was attracting the ACP. He felt a connection to him , he saw a potential in this child to be a great human some day . And he wanted to give him that chance.
" Where do you live?" He asked Dhruva.
" Nowhere in particular . " He replied .
" Well I have a family in mind who wanted a son like you for a long time . If you want you can live with them ."
" Whatever you see right sir."
Dhruva had agreed to the suggestion but doubt has started creeping in his mind . He is hopeful by the thought of a family but scared that they will accept a foster son or not .
When they reached a two storey house , they came out of the police Jeep and rang the bell . A lady came out to open the door along with a young girl not more than 12 in age. Dhruva greeted her with a polite namaste but the lady immediately came forward and hugged him . Dhruva became overwhelmed by the maternal affection ." Dhruva she is my wife Rajini" he said gesturing towards the lady " and this is my little daughter Shweta."
Dhruva looked at him amazed " This means you ......You want to ......adopt me"
" Yes , from today you are my son and this is your family "
It's been more than a month since ACP Mehra had brought Dhruva to his house. Since then Dhruva has been living in the loving protection of his family . Rajan has been amazed to know the abilities that Dhruva possessed. He was already trained as much as a commando trains . And still he trains daily like he is on a mission . The boy is dedicated to the core . When ACP Mehra asked him what he had thought to do with the money he said he wants to use it to fight for justice. Since that day Dhruva had worked day and night to devise a strategy. He came up with an idea to form a team of trained cadets ( just three for time being ) who will set base in RajNagar . They will work with the police force to fight crime and if this test becomes a success it will reach other parts of the country too. With the help of Rajan Mehra , his foster father, he was successful in receiving permission from the Government. He even recruited three kids who had received bravery award for their deeds and started training them .
These three cadets will be the pioneers of his mission and will form the Super commando force. Peter , Karim and Renu will dedicate all their life to fight crime and Dhruva will lead them to become the most fearsome team which will bring a new dawn in the age of crime.****************
Dhruva is 19 years old today. He is graduating today to the amazement of his foster family . It was obvious very soon that Dhruva not only posses highly advanced physical attributes but he has high intellect as well hence the early graduation.
The Mehra family is sitting in their living room celebrating Dhruva's success." I am proud of you son . Time and again you have proved that you are made of something else. " Rajan complimented him.
" Thanks papa, this all is because of you"
" Everyone just praises bhaiya. Even I came first in my class. I even won the science fair but no one has eyes for me." Shweta complained.
" See ma, this girl always have something to complain."
Dhruva teased Shweta a lot. But they both were very close. Dhruva loved her dearly and shweta deeply admired his brother." Stop it you too" Their father said sternly " we are proud of both of you."
" Dad you wanted to talk about something yesterday . " Dhruva asked him.
" Yes , the higher officials wanted to know the progress on your team . You and your force had already made an impact with your deeds . "
Dhruva nodded
" Also son they have conveyed their apologies . They are closing the case . The department has been unsuccessful in finding both the culprits who killed your parents . There is not a single clue but I promise you that I will still not leave the investigation. "
" You both are my parents . And everyone who commits any crime will be punished sooner or later. "
Dhruva didn't say anything else . As much as he trusted his father , this was one promise that he will not be able to keep. There is no one in this whole world , who can capture those culprits now . They are gone , where only Dhruva knows or the Gods. And only Dhruva knows why the police will never find them.
