TURNING POINT OF LIFE

Once upon a time there was a man named Varun. He was poor but he was very hard working person. He helped everybody and everybody loved him. He wanted to become rich but without doing any bad thing. Many people loved, cared and praised him. He lived in a small village named Aurunganabad. He did small works to carry out his living. Sometimes he worked in his field, sometimes he sold the milk obtained from his cow. His cow was thin and gave little milk. He fed on that milk mainly, sometimes if the milk was more than usual, he sold that milk.

One day he had a sudden need of money. He tried hard to arrange money but was unable. So he decided to sell his cow. The next morning he started his journey towards the city with his cow. While he was returning, with the sum of money, from a distance he saw few robbers surrounding an old man. He had a cart which had goods. They asked the merchant for the cart. On his refusal they attacked him and took his cart.

Varun saw all this and he quickly went to merchant. The merchant was faint. He took him to nearest hospital. As they reached the hospital, he was quickly given treatment. He had cuts on his back, arms and legs. Doctor after analysing him said to Varun that he was alive, but had lost a lot of blood. There were less chances of his survival. Doctor said that he had to be quickly operated, only after operation it can be said that would he survive or not. Doctor also said that it would be an expensive operation. Varun had no money except for the money he had gained from selling the cow. He needed that money very much for himself, but he thought saving one’s life is more important than his needs, so he paid all his bills. After operation doctor said that it was a successful operation and he would survive and recover in a few days.

After a week, his condition was better. Varun was with him all the time. He opened his eyes, first time after the attack on him.
He was a bit confused about himself, where he was, who brought him to the hospital. He remembered everything till the attack on him and that was a good thing. Doctors told him that a young man named Varun is brought him there and he is paying all of his bills. The merchant, on hearing this was in surprise than a stranger has shown such a great amount of affection to him. He eagerly wanted to meet Varun. Varun at that point of time was out for buying some medicines for him.  When he returned, he was told that his patient was again in his senses. On hearing this Varun was very happy and he ran to meet him.
When they both were introducing to each other, then Varun came to know that his name was Sohan, he was a poor farmer. He had a daughter named Shital. She was beautiful and good mannered, but due to poor conditions of her family, no one agreed to marry her. Everyone asked for a great amount of dory which the poor farmer was not able to pay. Finally a family agreed to accept Shital as their daughter in law without any dory. They had only one condition, and that was they wanted the marriage to happen within 14 days and with great festivity. He was poor and would be unable to arrange everything in such little time, but he happily agreed. The date of marriage was finalized. Everyone was very happy but there was less time for celebrations as the preparations had to be started. He decided to sell his entire furniture and everything else he had to arrange money.

He loaded his entire furniture and went to market to sell them. In the way the robbers of a well known gang, “SCORPIAN GANG” came and looted him. After narrating this story Sohan became to cry. He said that he had no right to live as he is such a bad father that he was unable to organise the marriage of his daughter. Varun comforted   him by saying he would do something in that matter. In the reply of this, Sohan said that he was given 14 days, out of which one weak is passed in hospital, in rest one weak they he had to do all the arrangements, without money. Varun promised him that would do anything but make his daughter’s marriage occur on any condition.

After a few hours Sohan was discharged from the hospital. Varun dropped him to his home and repeated his promise.
Varun went to the area where the incident happened. He asked many people about the gang. Everyone hearing their name tried to escape from the talk. By the end of the day he came up with a little piece of information.

He came to know that this gang is the biggest form of terrorism. It was a large group of robbers which had conquered a fort nearby. This fort belonged to a strong king of that area. They made the fort as their head office after the capture. They upgraded this fort with latest defences, arms and with every other technology which could be used in a great battle. Since the day of capture, whole area faced a great hard time. Many kings fought wars with them, but were defeated. They continuously grew in number. The only way to defeat them was by using their own fort against them, which was not possible. A very strong king Arun was after them. They both were bitter enemies of each other. Robbers and ARUN had 2 wars but robbers won both.

The next day Varun went to meet ARUN. On the way he found one more robbery happening. Robbers of SCORPIAN GANG were looting a shop. After the robbers had left he went there. He was glad to find no one injured. Then he changed his plan and quietly followed the robbers. Soon robbers went into a dense evergreen forest. Varun followed them. The area was covered with many lakes. Due to these lakes the place was humid. Slowly Varun came to know why the robbers were unbeatable and why the depended so much on their fort. The fort was located on a high hill. A large area near the fort was cleared to prevent the risk of any hid enemy. The hill was small and all the area of the hill was covered by the Giant fort. The fort covered a very large area and had high walls.

 He also heard them talking about the powers of the fort. It had several layers of walls. Each layer closed several defences. The inner most wall closed the all the gold, goods etc they looted and the control room. These walls had big, heavy and unbreakable, metal doors to go through the walls. Each layer had only one door. The doors etc were controlled from the control room. The fort was surrounded by traps. These traps always destroy more than half of the army of the attacker. Rest of the job was done by the defensive system of the fort. They used highly developed explosives and the humid conditions of the place exempted them from worrying about any fire. No one can plan an attack by hiding in the lakes as most of these lakes had crocodiles. The rest of them had deadly traps laid by the robbers.    

Varun saw robbers going inside safely so he drew a map to safely enter the fort. He also heard robbers talking about a big crack in first three layers of the fort. These cracks were result of the wars with ARUN. Arun lost that war but was able to escape alive. The robbers said the crack would be fixed within about 5 days. Due to rapids wars, the material and workers needed for the repair cannot be easily taken to the fort. Varun, while remaining in the jungle, tried to find the crack in the outermost layer. He found it and marked it on the map.   

Suddenly he slipped and fell over a stone. He heard loud noises of alarms. Suddenly few explosives were launched from the fort. He began to run. The place where he was standing earlier was destroyed, the x-bows fixed at the trees were activvated and Varun had to face arrows which were launched from almost all the trees. He was able to save his life but he was badly injured. He ignored his wounds and directly went to court of ARUN. First he was not allowed in, later the made it to him. He told him everything he saw. They both together made plans of destroying the robbers. ARUN asked Varun to have rest and let his wounds heal. He refused and said that if he would delay then Sohan would kill himself. Arun promised to pay all the money required for marriage.
