1 Awakening

My name is Amar, and I am a 19 year old undergraduate medical student currently at my parent's house during my 2 week long summer vacation. Our family comprises of me, my little sister who is 15 years old, my mother and father. We are a normal middle class family, father is HR manager at a management institute and mother is a housewife. My little sister is in 10th standard at my old school.

My appearance is kinda ordinary or maybe slightly above average, I have black hair, hazel brown eyes and lightly tan skin. I am a little on the chubby side due to my unhealthy addiction to anime, manga, novels, games, etc.

Anyway after going to the medical college, I kinda lost touch with my old friends from my hometown because of being away for extended period of time. You might be thinking why I didn't keep in touch with them through social media apps, and my answer to that is simple. I am very lazy and I don't like to do any kind of extra work if I can get away with it.

I am telling you all this because my mom basically kicked me out of the house to go out and socialize with my old friends. I am feeling kinda awkward because of this. My social skills are not that good to be honest with you. I mean I can make friends with everyone but the ones that I could call my close friends would be at most 2 or 3. So yeah I am just kinda walking on the road of life now and see if I can meet any of my old friends.

I guess we can discuss some more about my life while I am walking if you are interested, if not well you don't have a choice.

I have always been called an intelligent and bright child since I was little and have always been a curious person. When I was small, my mom told me that my name literally means immortal. And when I asked her what that means she told me about immortality in Hindu mythology. Ever since then I have been quite curious about that concept and love stories that show that concept in different kinds of ways. I guess my main motivation to be a doctor is also due to the fact that I want to find immortality through medical science and become immortal, as unrealistic as it sounds its kinda my goal if I ever achieve it. Well I kinda have an idea about it, like preventing telomere shortening during cell replication to prevent senescence. This phenomena happens in cancer cells and hence those cells are basically unaging, but I can't really induce cancer in every cell of my body just for immortality now can I? Sorry I don't want to become a failed version of Deadpool so yeah.

I do have some anger issues but my lazy personality kinda helps me in controlling them so I am not a loose cannon. Though I still remember beating one of my friends when I was in seventh grade with a bat because of a small disagreement, though I immediately regretted it that event still haunts me.

Speaking of regrets, I kinda have some regrets in my non existent love life. You see I kinda had a huge crush on this one girl in eighth grade, she was quite beautiful as well. I kinda fell in love with her later because of a single event in which she saved me from public shame. That event would have dragged my reputation down the drain like a certain Ishigami Yuu if she hadn't saved me, she even opposed the teachers and helped me clear my name.

Anyway I kinda became great friends with her in ninth grade. And I like an idiot that I was at that time thought that she had good feelings towards me as well. Things were going great except I didn't have any courage to confess my feelings back then. Then I committed one of the biggest mistakes of my life, I told one of my close friends back then about my feelings. I told him to keep it a secret and well you know how it goes. It slowly spread to my other friends, I don't know if my crush knew about my feelings back then but well many others like 4 to 6 people knew. They kinda gave me a thorough push for me to confess my feelings and I don't know what came over me I confessed my love at the worst possible timing. I confessed at a freaking crowded staircase, and got instantly rejected. After that I did some things that I am not proud of and my relationship with her turned very antagonistic. Till the very end, I couldn't gather my courage to apologize to her till she and I both passed 10th standard. And then she changed schools. But no she didn't change schools because of me if you are wondering but because what she wanted to study some subjects which weren't taught at our school in higher classes.

I still sometimes wonder what could have been like a simp but I guess that's how much I loved her.

But enough about depressing stuff, now I am at our old gathering place where my friends and I used to hang out before I went away. Let's see if I meet anyone. And I guess they still use this place because I found 3 of my old friends there just chilling and hanging out. They are also smoking but I guess these things happen.

"Yo what's up guys? It's been a while." I said to them while walking towards them. I don't know if that's what you say after meeting them for the first time in 6 to 8 months but yeah that's what I said.

"Oh, so you're back here huh", one of them said to me. He continued with a smirk, "So what's our genius doctor doing these days? Got any girlfriends~?"

"Sadly no", I shook my head with mock severe face. And then we all laugh because I know they don't have any from their expressions as well.

After that we hung out for like 10 to 15 mins more, then played some Football (soccer). I am kind of okayish in that sport to be honest. But I guess it's good exercise.

Anyway after playing we part ways and now I am on my way home. On my way back, I see my sister looking like she is arguing with a boy with similar body size, I can't say any more than that because I am like 400 meters away from them.

Suddenly the guy hits my sister and knocks her out, and two other guys come from behind a building and they start taking her away. This street is kind of deserted, not really but currently nobody other than me and those guys are here.

Moving on from describing the area, the moment that I saw someone hitting my sister my brain buzzed and sudden rage started bubbling in my body, adrenaline secretion hit the probably and my eyes started seeing red.

'YOU DARE! YOU ACTUALLY DARE HIT MY SISTER! THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS RIGHT TO HIT HER IS ME!' These were my thoughts at that moment. Kinda f**ked up I know, but thoughts are spontaneous.

So I ran at full speed, there is no way I am allowing some random guys kidnap my sister for whatever reasons that they are doing. Those guys haven't realized my presence yet due to the distance and well like 5 seconds have passed.

By the time I reach the spot from which they took her from, I see them entering an apartment room which is at the ground floor and closing the door behind them.

I quickly run upto the floor in 5 seconds, don't know where that speed come from but maybe it's adrenaline. And I bang on the door and shout,"OPEN IT MOT***F***ERS!!".

There was some shouting heard behind the door, and as the seconds passed on I grew really angry. I backtracked a bit then ran upto the door and rammed into it. There was a loud bang and the door opened, for an instant I saw some unfamiliar yet familiar markings on the door. And then my sight turned to black.
