Part 1

The year is 1850, it was a hot summer afternoon, a carriage is moving slowly on the winding roads of the hills in Shimla. The occupants of the carriage were a rich influential British man by the name of Henry Wilkinson, his wife and his teenage daughter - Anna Wilkinson. The driver of the carriage was Vijay, a poor Indian.

They were going to the new summer house which Mr.Henry had bought recently. The family members were not talking much with each other but Mr.Henry was occasionally talking to Vijay.

Mr.Henry asked,"Vijay, how long is it still going to take to reach the house."

To this Vijay replied,"Sahib, with this speed we will reach in another two hours."

Then suddenly a tire of the carriage disjointed from its place and the carriage came to a sudden halt.

The Wilkinson family panicked a lot and quickly got down from the carriage.

Mr.Wilkinson asked,"Vijay what happened."

To this Vijay replied,"Sahib,the wheel came from its position,it's going to take some time to fix it."

"Vijay do you expect us to stand in this hot sun while you are fixing it.",asked Mr.Wilkinson angrily.

Vijay sensing anger in his master's voice said humbly,"Sahib don't get angry there are a lot of things that you can see around here- There is a waterfall nearby, even the horses are tired and I need to get some water for them anyway."

Mr.Wilkinson was about to say "NO" but his teen daughter Anna on hearing the word Waterfall was very excited and the little girl who was dormant in her came springing up and said,"Father, I have never seen a waterfall before I would be really happy if we visit."

Even Mrs.Wilkinson said,"Henry, we are all tired by the journey it would really nice if we all take a little break."

Mr.Henry couldn't say "NO" to his two favorite ladies and said,"Vijay lead the way to the waterfall."

Vijay was happy that he made his master happy so he said,"Follow me sahib we should go thorough this forest here." They were walking through the forest which had winding pathways. They walked for sometime and reached the waterfall about which Vijay was telling so much. The waterfall was really a marvelous sight, they all would have been sorry later if they had missed such a beautiful sight.

Introduction

Man has been telling stories of fantasy since times immemorial. He has believed in the unknown and wanted to know more about the things he did not know it was the nature of mankind. In different parts of the world we keep hearing myths and legends of things which we cannot even imagine, in some cases the truth is definitely stranger than the fantasy. This is one such story. This is the tale of Adam an average teen whose life changes drastically in a span of three years. Adam lives in an alternate earth where the humans and demons, monsters live together or actually where humans are dominated by different creatures. The number of humans is very less and the earth is covered with swamps and different kinds of forests which are called "Woods". So a sight of a werewolf or any other demon is not such a rarity in Adam’s world. The tale starts from when Adam’s age was 15 years and continues until his age becomes 18 during the span of these 3 years he has to sacrifice many thin...

As days passed by Agent Scar got accustomed to ways of humans and now was able to easily blend in with them and pretend to be an Average Teenager . Even the work in the park was finished and was getting ready for it's opening ceremony. Another lonely Saturday afternoon where Ravi was at his residence staring blankly at the Biology Text book while his thoughts were drifting somewhere else. Now that the work in the park was finished he could no longer meet Pooja after school or spend time with her during the Saturdays when the school was left early in the afternoon. He didn't know why but he just wanted to be near her, feel her presence, look at her smiling face and such thoughts disturbed him a lot. He was An Assassin , there was no room in his mind for emotions but he didn't know why he was thinking about her, just then a voice made him come back to his senses. It was Robert's voice who was the King's Personal Body guard, he said,"Hey Scar, King is now serio...

A few days later,when Adam went to school as usual he was met by Tommy near the narrow path which ran across Dark Woods . they were discussing about the test which would be conducted that day by their class teacher-Ms.Amanda. But as the two of them went deeper into Dark woods, they heard the rustling of leaves behind them. When they turned around, about a few meters away from the place they were they saw the form of a creature running fast behind the bushes. Then there was dead silence for some time Tommy broke the ice by saying, "Adam, what do you think it was?" Adam replied,"Don't know man never seen anything like it." Adam asked Tommy if he was scared and Tommy said," Adam, even I am as brave as you are but its just that I am not able to keep my legs from shivering ad stop sweat from trickling down my face." Adam then said."Let us not linger around here unless you want to be late for school." Even before Adam completed his sentence Tomm...
