(Interrogation Part IV)
The Leech leans toward Faruq and asks in a very low voice,
"Pills? Was it red or blue?"
Faruq replies in a cold voice,
"White!"
The Leech frowns for a second, scratches own forehead with fingers and then asks
again in doubtful voice,
"White? What the fuck!!
It's just between you and me.
Do you know how he makes the pills?"
Faruq stares at him with confusion.
But The Leech gets up from the chair—
walks up to Faruq and leans a bit more closer and whispers,
"You know you can trust me.
I can help you to prove that you are innocent"
Faruq smirks and says,
"He didn't tell me anything about the recipe.
He just told me once—
that he gets them from a man,
Whom they called 'THE OWL'."
The Leech gets confused and asks,
"An Owl?"
Faruq chuckles and replies,
"Not an Owl.
THE OWL.
Like a code name.
All I know is he works with or for Amir"
The Leech gets back to his chair with a shocking face, sits down, turns off the
recording, then breathes for few seconds while thinking of something, and with a
worried voice he asks,
"Do you know any other code names for those who work with Amir?"
Faruq smiles, leans forward and speaks with a smirk,
"You seem quite worried after hearing the code name–"
The Leech hesitates and rushes to question again,
"Just tell me the other code names that you know!!!"
Faruq leans back to the chair with smirk and says in a sarcastic way,
"Not before you tell me what the codes are about–"
The Leech bangs on the table out of anger, then controls himself by clenching his fist
tightly, and says with a calm voice,
"Alright, you give me the code names first,
then I will tell you.
I swear on my three dead wives and two dead children "
Faruq can see that fear is wrapping The Leech's eyes, and slowly numbing him; He is
struggling to keep his cool expressions. The Leech speaks with fear in his voice,
"Please trust me"
Faruq smiles with an odd satisfaction, and replies,
"I just really know a few of them"
The Leech's eyes glows, he says with a hopeful voice,
"What are they?"
Faruq leans forward and speaks softly,
"The Owl,
The Crow,
The Snake"
The Leech seems very shocked, he leans back , looks up at the ceiling and starts to
laugh like a helpless creature. He puts his hand on his own face and thinks to
himself,
"All are fully grown animals' names,
unlike worms like us!!!"
Faruq is staring at The Leech's weird behaviours. He is acting like- all his confidence
Is now completely shattered and broken into pieces. Faruq with a curious voice asks
him,
"So keep your words and tell me about the codes"
The Leech looks at the recording device— it's turned off. Then he sighs and starts
talking with a helpless voice while staring helplessly at the flickering light,
"Seems like you don't know anything.
I won't tell you everything, just know that,
CODE names are given by the higherups
to the worst kind of humans
depending on their vows and mental-strength."
Faruq is kinda confused, he curiously asks,
"Vows? Mental-strength?"
The Leech glares at him for a second, then takes the bottle from the table, opens it,
drinks some water, takes a big sigh and replies frightenedly,
"Not everyone can handle bloody hands.
Those who vows to murder or sacrifice-
6k get worms names–
66k for insects—
666k for animals—
6 million for beasts—
66 million for mythological creatures—
666 million for monsters."
Faruq gets shocked, he leans forward, and asks,
" 6k? Millions? Kill what? And Why kill so much? Is it a game?"
The Leech with a serious face bends forward and replies in a deep voice,
"You don't need to know"
The Leech gets up from his chair, walks to the corner of the room, and calls someone
from his phone. As he is panicking, Faruq is staring at him with a mysterious smirk
on his face.

-AT THE SAME TIME IN ANOTHER ROOM-
(Torture Part III)
Date: 17th June, 2027
Location: Torture Room
Time: 09:39 PM
Amir is tied up with a chair, while his whole body is drenched in water. Water is
dropping from his body and mixing with the dried bloods on the floor.
The Tick is standing in front of him, and breathing heavily with a worried face.
Amir looks up at him, and says with a smirk,
"You are one hell of a psycho.
People usually keep sharp tools for torturing.
But you keep rusty tools-
so that it will be harder to cut and more painful for the victims.
And slowly their body will rot while being alive-"
The Tick doesn't say anything, just staring angrily at Amir. Amir gives a mysterious
smile and with a deep voice he says,
"I like the way you think.
Now won't you give me a taste of that pain?
Am I not an important guest for you?
Won't you serve your special guest with the best pleasure?"
The Tick now stops breathing heavily, he closes his mouth, just staring at Amir with
eyes filled with rage. Amir gives an evil laugh, locks eyes with The Tick and says
sarcastically,
"Or you are not allowed to?
Worthless lackeys of worthless king!"
Out of rage, The Tick pulls out a gun from his pocket and places it on Amir's
forehead. Amir stares at him with a serious face.
The Tick yells by saying,
"Laugh now Sucker!
How dare you– to insult my king!!!"
Amir stares at The Tick and gives a demonic smirk.
The Ticks gets angrier, but with cold voice he says,
"You Crazy Bastard!!!"
The bulb on the wall is flickering while the flies are hovering around it.

Time: 09:42 PM
-Back in the Interrogation Room-
(Interrogation Part V)
The Lick comes back from the corner of the room after finishing his call. He seems
more relaxed and happy than before. He sits in front of Faruq with a smile on his face
and says,
"Wow, I was getting afraid for no reason.
I just confirmed from my higherups– Agent Alpha,
that the code names that Amir used were fake.
He just made them up by himself."
Faruq is staring at him and smiling mysteriously. The Leech looks at him asks with a
confused voice,
"What are you laughing about?"
Faruq replies,
"Nothing"
The Leech takes a deep breath , turns on the recorder, leans towards Faruq and says,
"So where were we?
You got unconscious at Amir's house,
then what happened?"
Faruq glares at him and replies,
"The next day, I woke up. And saw –"
(Scene 15)
(Faruq's Testimony)
—11 DAYS left till Faruq's Birthday—
Date: 7th June, 2027
Location: Amir's house
Time: 11:11 AM
—Amir's Room—
Faruq opens his eyes, and realizes it is already morning. But he doesn't remember
how he fell asleep. He looks in his front and sees Amir. He is exercising by
holding his whole body weight on his fingertips. His eyes are closed. Cigarette
in his mouth.
Next moment, Amir opens his eyes, stands up, walks to the study table and takes a
plate of breakfast and gives it to Faruq. Faruq takes the plate. There are two boiled
eggs, a few loaves of bread and some fruits. Then Amir gives him a glass of lemon
juice and says,
"Go, get fresh, and have breakfast.
I have got something important to tell you-"
Faruq doesn't say anything. He is still sleepy, he never slept this well before. He
goes in the washroom and gets fresh. When he comes out, Amir throws him a
towel and sits on a chair near the bed. Faruq sits on the bed and starts eating slowly.
Amir soft says,
"You need anything else to eat?"
While eating Faruq slowly shakes his head from left to right, indicating he doesn't
need anything else. Then Amir stares at Faruq's phone on his pocket for a second,
lights up a cigarette, then says in a calm voice,
" You missed your last night's Fajr prayer.
When was the last time that you prayed?"
While chewing the food, Faruq is trying to remember. Then he smiles and says,
"I don't make sins, that's why I don't pray."
Amir smirks and says,
"Isn't it a sin not to pray?"
Then Amir leans forward and with a serious voice he says,
"Never ever miss your prayers on time,
no matter where you are."
Faruq smiles for the first time and says,
"Bro you are smoking cigarettes,
and while making sins- you are preaching?"
Amir chuckles and says,
"Our Creator creates us in a way-
that each one of us will commit sins again and again.
But He loves those who keep on repenting- again and again- without excuses.
Because His mercy is greater than His anger over our sins.
And the best way to clean our sins is through our prayers.
Just like water removes the dirt.
If you hold the intention of leaving sins,
He will forgive you and help you to stay away from sins.
But if you keep on sinning without repenting—
If your heart doesn't aches or
mind doesn't questions while making sins—
Then your soul becomes numb
to feel anything wrong while doing sins—
and that really is a red flag for mortals—
as it crumbles the right track for your soul.
So no matter how many sins you are making,
don't forget to repent and pray on time!!"
Faruq had already finished his breakfast before realizing as he was listening carefully
to what Amir was saying.
Then Amir gets up and takes the empty plates from Faruq, and tells him to purify
himself before praying. Faruq goes to the washroom and Amir goes in the kitchen to
clean the plates. Faruq gets out of the washroom and Amir gives him a prayer-mat.
Faruq stands on the mat to pray and Amir goes to the washroom to take a shower.
As Faruq starts praying, light starts flickering, the air gets heavy and the room
becomes gloomy. Faruq is trying to concentrate on the prayer. But suddenly,
something pushes him from behind, he falls on the floor. Doesn't know what
just happened— as he looks around and sees nothing. Again he stands up on the
prayer mat and starts praying.
But this time the light starts flickering more violently and the room filled with
whispers of thousands of voices. Suddenly something grabs Faruq's hair and pulls
him behind so hard, that his head hits the wall and he falls on the floor
unconsciously.
Blood starts coming out from the back of his head. Amir comes out of the shower in a
hurry with wet hair and sees Faruq in that condition. Then he smirks and says,
"I knew it's getting too much late—
But can you escape me? You damn ghouls!!!"
Amir's face gets serious, he closes his eyes,
"By the blessings of the one and only Creator of all creatures,
I command you, The Gate from Gates of other parallel dimensions, Lead me there"
Saying that Amir flickers his fingers on both hands, then smash his both hands with
one another making a loud clap. After that sound, Amir opens his eyes, it's all dark–
nothing can be seen. But thousands of whispers can be heard. It's too noisy, Amir
takes a deep breath and everything becomes silent.
Suddenly flames of various colors start floating around Amir and a rough cracked
tone with thousands of voices asks,
"No mortals are not supposed to be here.
Especially not in front of an Emperor like me"
Amir coldly replies,
"How many are in him?"
That Tone says,
"You can talk also?
Now I see, Nor the body, nor the soul but the Qareen is here,
how fascinating you are!!"
Amir angrily replies,
"Asked you a question already, you damn smokeless flames!!"
That Tone replies,
"I see, You know too much.
Better not to make you an enemy then.
They made contract with Six hundred Sixty-Six Thousands of fallen ones,
Combining both the flames and the dead ones,
The nastiest and scariest dark magic of all.
All done from one of the Barzarkhs of the deepest part.
There's no way you can save him."
Amir chuckles and says,
"I know I can't, but my Creator can.
Gather all of them in that Barzakh"
That Tone replies,
"It will take few days,
But why should I obey you?
What's in it for me?"
Amir replies coldly,
"Isn't it enough that-
you can save your own life from me?"
That Tone replies,
"Well, it's funny how I don't doubt your words.
And It's also funny how I have finally found the answer-
to all my unanswered questions for centuries.
Always wondered-
Why The One and Only Mighty Creator called-
The Mortal Human beings - made of clay - The Best of All Creatures?
Where we Jinns have more natural abilities compared to humans.
Thanks for visiting, now I can worship The Creator more gratefully,
without being arrogant, unlike the Arrogant Serpent!"
Amir smirks and says,
"The creator always shows paths to The Humble Ones.
As a fellow slave of The True One,
I give you the name- 'Abdullah'-"
Abdullah replies,
"I'm grateful for that, The Wise One.
I will let you know when my work is done."
Amir replies,
"Ya, that would save me from massacring all of you including the good ones."
Again Amir closes and opens his eyes, Now he is back in his room.
Then he looks at Faruq and sees the blood on the floor and without realizing he starts
licking his own lips. He walks to Faruq and leans towards the blood. He is breathing
heavily and biting his own lips like a hungry animal.
He moves his hands towards the blood as a memory from the past peeks through his
mind-
{
-A Memory of Amir-
A laughing shadow of someone,
is running here and there
while kicking some round objects around him.
The sound of laughing
is making the dark room
even darker.
Someone flashes a light at the shadow-
It was Amir who is smiling and
kicking some heads like a football,
not skulls but heads with face, flesh and hair,
With a creepy smile Amir says, 'You want to play with daddy?'
then slowly turns at the one who flashed the light,
The lights drops on the floor
with a screaming sound crying out for help —--
}
Amir snaps back by slapping his own cheek really hard. He takes off his cloth and
presses against Faruq's wound to stop the bleeding. Then takes a deep breath and
slaps gently on Faruq's face to wake him up. Faruq instantly wakes up. He looks
around in fear. Amir whispers to his right ear,
"Were you praying genuinely for The Creator—
or were just moving limbs to show me?"
Faruq is baffled, with low voice he asks,
"What happened?"
Amir smirks and says,
"You slipped.
And I have stopped the bleeding, so don't worry.
Now go and purify yourself again then come back and pray."
Faruq is confused. He looks around the room and says,
"I think someone pulled me towards the wall!!"
Amir looks at his eyes and says,
"Who?"
Faruq answers,
"I don't know-"
Amir frowns and ask Faruq with a low voice,
"Are you having nightmares?
Not past memories but something that might happen in the future, or–
Do you feel like something is with you even when you are all alone?"
Faruq's eyes get bigger, he says with a surprised voice,
"Ya for the last few weeks,
I often have nightmares, where,
Scary faces or beings are trying to hunt me.
Also whenever I'm alone,
I feel like someone or something is gazing at me.
And Sometimes I see familiar faces with bloods coming out of eyes-
but without there are no eyeballs, just dark holes.
But how do you know?"
Amir smirks and says,
"You know The last Three Sura's of the Quran?"
Faruq says,
"You mean, Sura Ikhlas, Sura Falaq and Sura Nas?"
Amir takes a deep breath and says,
"Always recite them 3 times each,
once in the morning and once in the evening.
These are your medicine for now.
It's also in the Hadith. So you can trust."
Faruq is listening carefully. Then Amir says,
"Ok, then I will watch and guard you while you pray, So, don't worry!"
Faruq says with a confused voice ,
"Guard me? From what?"
In a soft voice Amir says slowly with a smirk,
"So 'that nothing' pushes you and you don't slip again!"
After that Faruq goes to the washroom. Amir wipes off the blood from the floor with
the same cloth while breathing heavily like a predator who is controlling himself
from devouring his prey. He finishes cleaning the floor, then he looks at the cloth,
which became bloody red. With shaking hands he is bringing the cloth near and near
to his nose to sniff. When he is about to smell it, another memory from the past
comes to his mind-
{
—Another Memory of Amir–
A Voice is trembling the dark vibe of a small dark room by saying,
"You smell really nice,
I want to keep you with me forever,
But I can't.
You will be gone If I eat you,
But if I leave you then you will rot and smell bad.
Also, the bugs will hurt you.
What should I do?
Better to eat fresh than a rotten stinky one right?
HAHAHA"
The laugh trembles the room like thunders.
}
Faruq comes out of the toilet. Then Amir gets up and throws the bloody cloth in a
bin. "Give me a minute", saying that he rushes to the toilet. He coughs and spits on
the basin, then looks in the mirror, in the mirror Amir is smiling, but in reality he is
not. He stares at the mirror with an angry face.
But the Amir in the mirror keeps on smirking with creepy eyes and slowly bringing
out his tongue. Amir gets out of the toilet, and rushes to the drawer and takes out
three pills and swallows all of them at once.
Faruq is observing all Amir's deeds. Then Amir sits on the chair and points at Faruq
to pray. Faruq starts praying. Amir is staring at him like a lifeless doll and wiping his
wet hair slowly and slowly. Then when Faruq finishes his prayer and in a cold low
voice Amir says while wiping his wet hair,
"Take any clothes that you like from my drawer and get ready,
we will go out–"
Faruq gets surprised and asks,
"I thought you don't like to go outside.
Especially after coming back 13 months ago!"
Amir stares at him and takes a breath. Then glares at Faruq's phone in his pockets
and says,
"There's no point in staying all day at home anymore,
so go and get ready"
Faruq walks up to the cupboard and opens it to get some clothes. Then he looks at
Amir, who throws a silver plain ring at Faruq. He catches it, observes it and then asks
Amir,
"What is this?"
Amir replies,
"Always wear that ring from now on-
whenever going outside.
It works against the CCTVs-
aka The God's eye!"
Faruq is surprised to know such technology exist,
he just stares at the Ring, then wears it.
(Scene 16)
-AT THE SAME TIME IN A DIFFERENT PLACE-
Date: 7th June, 2027
Location: A secret room
Time: 11:11 AM
-THE SECRET ROOM-
A calendar with some red markings is hanging on the wall.
Rays of the candle are reflecting on it to wait for the perfect call.
Jamal walks up to the calendar.
Then he bites the tip of his middle finger,
and blood comes out filled with anger.
He crossed out 7th June with his blood like he did to the previous dates.
But the date 18th June is different from other dates.
It's circled in red blood and a triangle symbol is drawn around that date over the
circle.
Alpha walks up to the calendar and stands beside Jamal, while staring at the
calendar he says with a deep voice,
"Few more days to go,
then the throne of this country will be yours!!!"
Jamal smirks while staring at the date '18th June'.
