Mathi and ram part ways soon and search for the cadets everywhere inside the cave. Abhi got tired again. And ram carried him in his shoulder again. After a good 1 hour search. They found two men who seemed to have fainted.
He put abhi down.mathi to appeared there.
Mathi:"what the "
Ram:"language "
Mathi:"I didn't complete. Did they faint on a simple hike? I doubt they will be alive in a battle field. "
Ram:"we too just got here check them you are a doctor remember " Trying to act calm.
Mathi:"ram , stop being silly turn em over "
Ram:"yeah yeah"he turned both of them over and saw both of them were stabbed in their stomachs.
Ram:"what the hell! I hate who ever did this"
Mathi:"stop bluffing and hold this torch and be useful. "She told handing him the torch in her hand.
Ram:" We need to contact jai we need to inform him now"
Mathi:"wait till I treat them to a liveable extend they are alive you can do your introgation afterwards"
Ram:"Abhi hold this " He went to his bag and searched for something.
Ram:"oh man mathi have you bought the talkie"
Mathi:"yes, I am not like you check in my bag"
Ram goes and checks all the zips. But finds nothing.
Ram:"where is it? "
Mathi:"there is a zip below the bag you idiot"she says in an irritated tone.
Ram:"wait! You keep your gun and talkie in that zip. Really! "
Mathi:"no one would check there. I mean you just proved my point. Go and call him"
He takes the walkie and types some numbers and fails to connect due to the bad connection in the cave.
Ram:"no connection " Ram noticed a small streak of light from the end. He felt something fishy.He took the gun along with the talkie and went towards that direction.
Mathi:"it's my gun take yours I don't want to be responsible for your dumbness''
Ram:"dont worry" and runs towards that direction.
Mathi:"predictable "
Ram's pov
I saw a streak of light here especially there is not an exit here as far as I can remember. One someone must have made a way out. Or I am imagining stuff.
I went straight and took a left just to see a hole which would be enough for one person to pass through one at a time definitely man-made. Must be made like a week or two ago. I went near the hole with caution. I saw a jeep parked just few feets away. Mathi should come here cause I am not going there alone. Could she hear me if I shout from here. Definitely but the people if any in the jeep would also here. What do I do?. I just call mathi.
Me:"captain, rocky stone. Fast"pretty sure she heard it no response. If you are wondering what Rocky Stone means. It is a code word for suspicious activity. Let's hope she could understand. Mathi calmly walked towards me with my gun. I took hers ang she took mine.
I pointed at the hole.
Mathi:"what it is just an exit with a keep parked outside. Why Rocky Stone"
Me:"remember last time we came this was not here"
Mathi:"last week. Maybe you missed it all along "
Me:"no, you know me I don't miss such things. And besides there is only the jungle behind it. And no one will even think of using this except if they are trying to hide And look there blood stains still think safe. "
Mathi:"so,you first or me"
Me:"I am pretty sure there is no one in the jeep no action but they may be around. I'll go and you cover me. Follow my commands cap"
Mathi:"Roger that"
I went through that hole and I went towards the jeep. I checked the front drivers seat and got on the jeep to check the back. Nothing so far. Just as I was thinking of leaving just when I saw a end so it was a fake floor. I signeled Mathi to come. And used the knife in my uniform to cut open the floor. Yep I was right. There were a lot of high end weapons. So who is behind this.
Mathi:"anything " She asked from a few feet away. As she could see nothing. I pointed at the stock. And she was shocked.
Mathi:"wait, there are terrorists here. What are they planing. "
Me:"we can't be sure of anything. Let us first inform jai. And take the cadets to safety. There is a gaurd near the gate. He has a talkie. I will connect to him. "
Mathi handed me the talkie. I tried to reach jai thank god we got him. I reported on what happened and he said to proceed and he will send backup. Just as I was about to call the security guard mathi called out to me and pointes at the blood in the ground which seemed to be fresh.
Mathi:"looking at this I am sure the very person who stabbed them is hurt. And they could not be stabbed before an hour before we reached there. Maybe they tried to capture them and in the process got stabbed "
Me:"so, the culprits are still around. Let's follow the trail they could not go far being injured. "
We followed the trail after reaching the lake where I and abhi were enjoying the view. And guess what there was another body just lying there. I proceeded with caution. Just in case if that man is alive. He was also stabbed in the back.
Me:"mathi trat him"
Mathi:" He is alive but this stab is deep we need to get to the hospital before he dies. Call that security guard fast"
Me:"how long max"
Mathi:"20 mins to the hospital "
I somehow reached the security guard and asked him to give the talkie to Nick.
Nick:"sir "
Me:" Nick listen carefully don't get tensed. This is your first operation"
Nick:"ready, sir. "
Me:"call an ambulance now, and come to the lhr8 corridor of the cave with some of your buddies and take cadet atharva and raja they were given first aid only. Then take a left from there you will see a hole come through it and move 100 due South you will see captain there assist her to take that boy. And if backup arrives send them to that location and you alone come to help captain. Clear"
Nick took some time to take that in and
Nick:"clear sir"
Me:"any doubt,try using the walkie ok"
Nick:"yes sir"
Me:"jai hind"
Nick:"jai hind sir"
Let's hope he doesn't mess this up.
Mathi:"what! "
Me:"got help on way"
Mathi:"thank god, what are you thinking? "
Me:"I am thinking if they stabbed their own man or the cadets did it"
Mathi:"come on may. Though they are first term cadets they have some combat abilities they may have did it and besides this boy is less than what.. 17 years so , do you think he could handle two trained cadets. "
Me:"that is my point. If this 17 year old boy could do it. There is no way he defeated two men. And get stabbed the same way as the person he stabbed. That's why I say there must be another person who helped him"
Mathi:"so.what do you think? "
Me:" I want to go for a little walk" She knows that I want to go behind the others.
Mathi:"here's your gun go"
Me:"don't you want one"
Mathi:"nope, no one will come back to a crime scene again if they do I am as trained as you are go get lost?! "
I went into the dense woods in search of a theoretical character. ..
