The Quest For A Cursed Diamond.

Shah Jahan built a special throne for himself. It took a craftsman named Syed Geelani and his team of artisans took some seven years to build this throne. Several kilos of gold was overlaid on this throne, it was decorated with many gems. Jewelers from all over the world used to come to see this throne. One of these was the Hortenso Borgia of the city of Venice.  Emperor Aurangzeb gave it to Borgia to enhance the luster of the diamond.  Borgia acted so clumsily that he broke the diamond piece by piece.  It was reduced to just 186 carats instead of 793 carats... Aurangzeb had in fact given the task of carving a diamond from a piece of Kohinoor to Borgia secretly and part of the same Kohinoor was mounted in the wall of Shah Jahan's prison, with the help of which he used to see the Taj Mahal and his beloved wife's soul.

Commander In Action- 8

"It has to be accepted that today was not a good day, but the ship was just to be robbed, now it is wretched or not, it cannot be said, after so many years of becoming a robber, I have seen something like this happen for the first time, till now whatever happened, the loss was not ours but the people working on this ship, but what is happening now is our loss, some of our fellow ships may have lost their way due to dense fog and may have been left behind, the ships probably collided with each other because of that sea creature, whose shock we all felt on this ship too", said the chief of the robbers, explaining to the rest of his comrades.

"Just go to the control room of the ship, check the electrical connection, why the light has not come on till now," the chief of the robbers continued his talk and ordered his companions to check the light again.

The two of them proceed to the control room at the top of the ship, adjacent to the captain's control cabin, but the ship's lights come back on before they reach there.

The chief of robbers goes back to the dining hall along with his companions.

As soon as the lights return, the Commander and Tannu also hide to carry out their plan back on the ship and after remaining hidden for a while, both of them proceed towards the engine room of the ship.

"For one, there is always a fear of heavy fog, turbulent waves from above, that the ship might collide with an iceberg," the crew member tells one of his companions in the engine control room.

"You're absolutely right, this part of the ocean is filled with large pieces of ice berg from place to place", agrees another crew mate.

"It is your responsibility to take this ship safely to its destination, whether it comes to the iceberg or some other mountain, what does it matter, what are you getting paid for so much", the two prisoners of the crew from a hijacker calls for an AK-47-1948 model gun.

"The chief has also imprisoned the captain of the ship in the dining hall and has given these novices to steer the ship, if they become directionless, the ship will reach America instead of London... Ha... Ha...Ha", said the other robber to the comrades sitting in the engine control room and started laughing.

"It's hard to see anything because of the thick fog, what's so funny about it, the captain's stay is a bit of a relief, his experience comes in handy," said one of the crew members to the robbers.

"Now why do you recruit you guys, learn something from your captain, for so many years were you flirting with him that Papa would come and teach him to sail a ship by holding his finger, Papa who is about to come and teach to sail by holding his son's finger, keep your finger on your lips and drive the ship silently, otherwise our gun will stop talking, is there some servant sitting here who will bring their Captain Papa", said one of the robbers mocking him.

Suddenly every member present in that engine room heard the melodious melody of an unknown whistling, to their surprise, one of those robbers started chasing that melodious tune, for a while he was in the engine control room.

He stood at the door outside and then proceeded forward.

Due to the thick fog it was impossible to see anything nearby, so the robber followed him only after hearing the melodious melody of the whistle.

"Aa... aah... aa EEEEEE", after some time the robber's sore nose is heard, but his squeak is not heard even by his comrades because the engine room was too far away.

"It's too late, haven't come back yet, the whistling has stopped," said one of the robbers when his companion did not return.

"Oh nothing, he will come back after a while", said the other robber, consoling him.

After a while outside the engine room again someone plays the same whistling tune, a robber again follows him after hearing the sound of that whistle.

On the other hand, in the dining hall,chief says to his comrades, "It is too late till now no one has come back from the luggage compartment, just go and see what treasure they have found which no one has returned till now", Sardar said to his comrades.

He was very worried about his non-returned comrades, he was surrounded by doubts.

Hearing the sound of the whistle here, the robber follows back to the deserted corner of the ship, where the whistling sound stops at once, "Aa ee EEE... ya... aa aa", a pained nostril scream.

Now that whistle had been replaced, but it was not of the whistler, but of the robber going back after hearing the sound of the whistle, whose skull was held by the commander and separated from the torso.

When the comrades of the robbers sitting in the engine room for a long time do not return, one of the robbers becomes very worried and tells the other two gun-wielding comrades "I'll come back to see what's up", and seeks out his missing comrades.

The search leaves the engine room.

After moving forward for some distance, someone calls him from behind. "Where are you heading man, it's me you are looking for," a heavy voice drew his attention to him and he went to see the face of that voice.

He turned back saw a skull flying in the air and his eyes shining with red light.

Seeing this sight, he was about to scream that suddenly someone from behind grabs his head and separates it from the body.

"Aa...aa...yaa" erupts with a clogged nose, the commander's torso separates his head so swiftly that the robber cannot even call his comrades for help.

On the other hand, the robbers, after sifting through the luggage compartment, brought the luggage compartment in-charge to their chief in an unconscious state, water was splashed on his face to bring him to his senses, "No… no... Don't kill me... I didn't do anything", Compartment Incharge starts begging for mercy as soon as he regains consciousness, all the people sitting in the hall are surprised and very nervous.

"Don't be afraid what have you seen like this", the captain of the ship asks his bewildered companion.

"You shut up, tell me who killed my comrades in that compartment and what happened there", the chief of the robbers gets angry and asks the captain of the ship to keep quiet, then the compartment in-charge about the accident in the luggage compartment.

"There is a dreadful shadow of death in that compartment, it was so dangerous and powerful that before it the killers of your comrades proved useless and that shadow hunted down all your comrades one by one, it seemed as if the lion had already made up his mind to hunt the hunters in the forest, I could not see his face properly but his presence was enough to make all the hairs of the body, it created so much panic in your companions that all of them were unable to stand before him", said the in-charge of the luggage compartment to the chief of robbers present in the dining hall.

Arun, who is present in the dining hall, listens to his words and understands the whole story, he also understands to whom the luggage in-charge was referring.

"Which man was left behind, who is proving to be the most dangerous in this ship, he did not deviate our small ships, but how can he do this by getting down from the ship", the chief of the robbers told his companions, he was very surprised as he said .

On the other hand, there was a stir in the engine room, one by one all the robbers were disappearing, the other two were surprised by this that their companions had gone, where did they go, even if they were doing defecation, it would not take that much time, but no one had come out for work, they went after him after hearing the sound of an anonymous whistle, now those robbers were starting to suspect that there is someone who is planning to hunt tonight, now there is panic in everyone's mind.

Whether it was in the engine room or in the dining hall, but they didn't know that a 300-year-old hunter had ambushed that ship.

A hunter who turned forty in four 300 years ago, 300 years ago he may have got defeated but now he was like a wounded lion who had become more dangerous than before and tonight he was hunting again the hunter of the hunters, a hunter whom even death could not completely defeat.

Tonight he was going to be heavy on everyone and the proof of this was clearly visible on everyone's faces because everyone's faces were pale with fear and the throat of the robbers had dried up due to fear, now their swagger was gone.

For he had come to know that there was a more clumsy man on this ship who was not ready to make any kind of compromise and the proof of this was clearly visible, the bodies of the robbers were scattered everywhere on the ship who were mercilessly put to death.
