The black cloth, that guided people was spread on the long mahogany table, covering all over the space. It was imprinted with various lines and figures indicating life and emptiness at the same time.
The old looking map was still used by the people to know about the planets in Universe. It dated back to some hundred years ago which had now been copied on different cloths to preserve it. At some places, the dark black circles were drawn highlighting the location.
Suddenly, a pointer stopped at the biggest circle, tapping it twice with more force and strength. The sound of wooden stick shook some of the officials from their sleepy form. Rubbing their swollen eyes, most of them were yawning. They were not sleep - deprived but had over slept. The people were irresponsible and careless towards their work and planet. They just enjoyed partying and banging off girls till they couldn't get more of it .
A harsh voice echoed in the room, alarming them.
"All of you had been sleeping soundly whole night, while I could not close my eyes for a second. I was planning for the attack until morning. And now, here also; when we are having an important meeting, you people are stretching your mouths, right in front of my face! Does anyone of you has planned anything instead of my plan? Tell me, is there anybody?" Derek screamed at now, alert official who stood silently with their head hung low.All of them were clueless, they didn't even knew where they are going to attack. Not even the name nor the geographical information. Banging his fists loudly at the table, Derek threw the pointer at the wall, scraping some of the paint. The uniformed officers were more like a dummy than executing authority. He groaned in frustration, "How can I fight with lazy people beside me. Nobody has even a fucking single plan in their hollow brain. Huh..." Taking his head in his hands, he kicked the table; furiously. His eyes had dark bags underneath with fatigue displaying from them. And his hair were disheveled giving him a Zombie look.
Seeing his anger, the men stood alert to not ignite it more. With a loud thud, the door busted open revealing Dom suited in a black fitting jacket and jeans. Combing his locks back with his hands, he looked devilishly handsome and energetic. With his hands in his pockets, he entered in the room; clearing his throat. Everyone shifted their attention towards Dom. His ripping muscles flexed in his forearms and biceps popping from his jacket remitted him a dangerous appearance. His bloodshot red orbs made him look more rough and strong.
Taking long strides, he wished brightly; "Cheerful Morning, Gentlemen." This ignited Derek's anger to a higher scale. Everyone replied him happily except the one and only Derek. Facing the languid men, Dom ordered all of them to leave the hall and refresh themselves. A grateful smile covered their lips as they needed an escape. Thanking him appreciatively, they scurried out, with excited faces. After clearing the commotion, Dom turned to Derek who was standing silently near the window, glancing outside. His body looked tense with hands turned in fist.
Dom came closer to him and whispered, patting his shoulder. "Take it easy, why are you stressing so much? Everything will go on smoothly." His words turned on the devil inside him and he thought to unleash his anger upon Dom as he could not say anything, now. Derek replied instantly, "It's not my first time, Dom. I have handled many attacks and some of them had been very successful." He plastered an evil smirk on his face and focused ahead.
Dom was expecting this answer, then too he tried to talk politely to him; it was the matter of their planet. "I wanted to discuss about some things in detail with you and officials. I had made some points that will help us in making the attack easy." Derek looked a little bit taken back by his words. Like, he is serious about the War, he thought that it would not affect him. He considered Dom same as the other officials; immature and careless. But now, a part of him wanted to listen to his advice patiently but the another part screamed 'No'!!
