The Warrior


THE WARRIOR

Vijay is army captain that work in the boarder of India protecting his country. As an army officer Vijay has to work for 11 months and only gets a month of holiday to visit his parents, relatives and friends at Mumbai. It was time for Vijay to get back home.  Every year Vijay spends his holiday by spending his time with Arasu. As usual for this holiday Vijay was with his friend Arasu patrolling the Mumbai city. They were both having a good time sharing their past 11 months experience, when suddenly the police car broke down. Both of them had no other options other than taking the bus back to the police station while the tow truck tows the car back to the mechanic shop.  While Arasu and Vijay were on the bus a man started shouting that someone had stolen his wallet.  Since Arasu was a police officer he told him that he would help him find his wallet. He ordered the bus driver to stop the bus by the road side and ask everyone to get out of the bus. As they were getting out of the bus Arasu and Vijay started checking everyone whether they had stolen the wallet. Suddenly a man started running. Vijay found the gesture of the man was very suspicious so Vijay started chasing him and Arasu started chasing Vijay.  Vijay almost caught the man when a car hit the man to the ground. Vijay realized the man was still alive and was about to ask a question when the bus they were on exploded. Arasu called for backup and in a few minutes they were about  20 policemen trying to clear the situation. The man was accused as a terrorist and taken to the hospital. 

  Arasu came and met Vijay in the morning and told the terrorist had escaped, when Vijay opened his cupboard in his room and in there was the terrorist tied up and his right hand ring finger severed. Arasu was very shocked and asked how the terrorist ended up in his cupboard. Vijay then explained, Vijay wasn’t only an army captain but he was also a special army intelligence officer. He told that he was waiting outside the hospital the whole day because he knew the terrorist would escaped he also told that the terrorist is just a sleeper cell.. He also said that the terrorist said that there is going to be 4 more bomb blast, and Vijay showed the map the terrorist had to Arasu. Vijay then gave an injection for the terrorist. Vijay told Arasu that the bomb blast was planned today at 6.00pm. Vijay than quickly put on a suit and asked Arasu to follow him. Both of them went to Vijay’s friend, Michaels birthday party. Two hours into the party Vijay drove back to his house with his friends and told about the terrorist and the bomb blasts. It was 4.00pm and the terrorist escaped from Vijay’s house and went and met 3 other people. As the terrorist met three other people each of Vijay’s friend followed them. Now everyone was following a person. Exactly at 5.45 the terrorist and the three other people he met started planting their bomb. Vijay immediately gave the instruction to all of his friend to shoot down the terrorist. All four of them were shot at the same time. As Vijay shot the terrorist he found that his terrorist was having an untraceable phone. The next day, the head of terrorist started travelling with a false identity to Mumbai. He travelled with an identity called Surya and found out everyone that shot his sleeper cells were all wearing suits. After investigating Surya found out that there was a birthday party that was celebrated by an army soldier which had a dress code of wearing suits.  Surya went to the Michaels house and looked at party photos which had a group of people wearing suits. Surya knew it was one them that killed his men.  Surya asked his sleeper cells to follow everyone that on the picture.

A few days later Vijay received a called from Surya saying that all of them were being watched. 5 minutes later Surya called Vijay and told that if Vijay doesn’t do what he said everyone on the picture will be shot.  Vijay answered that he will do. That night Vijay met Arasu and Michael and told what was happening. Vijay said that he will insert a tracking chip in his body and wanted Arasu and Michael to track him and plant a bom when he meets Surya.


The next day morning Vijay received a call from Surya asking him to go to train station and drive a silver car with a number plate of 0870 to a famous shopping complex and from there to drive a black van with a number plate of 7685 to the Mumbai Hospital and his man will fetch him from there. Vijay did everything that Surya said. Vijay was then taken to a vessel .Surya explained to Vijay that the car that Vijay drove had a bomb in it. Surya also told he is going to kill Vijay and show everyone the video of Vijay driving the cars with the bomb. The government will then automatically classify him as a traitor. Listening to that Vijay was very shocked. He didn’t want to die as a traitor.  Surya pointed a gun to Vijay forehead and asked Vijay whether he had any last wish. Vijay answered that he wanted to be beaten until death. Surya started hitting Vijay and Vijay started to block Surya. Now it was a big fight. After about 10 minutes of action packed fight Vijay managed to point a gun back at Surya. While the fight was going on Michael got the coordinates of Vijay from Arasu and planted the bomb in the vessel.  Vijay started to walk out the vessel and got onto the speedboat and drove away from the vessel. Surya than told that even if he’s not there the terrorist organization will still carryon. Vijay than asked Surya to look at the vessel and the vessel exploded.  Vijay than took a gun and shot Surya. Now India was safe again. It was now time for Vijay to go back to the camp at the boarder to safeguard India.
