16 BATTLE OF GOOD AND EVIL

Ipsita was talking to Sanjana when all of a sudden the tornado started to assemble again. This time, he was fiercer than ever. Sanjana, upon being told to hide in a nearby shelter, runs for it, and Ipsita gets ready to face this monster, with her green glowing staff, the legendary "Staff of Abyss", as she calls it.

Steven, able to sense an evil presence, tries to warn Sumit. As they were walking by the village road, they saw a huge storm at the far end of the village. Both realizing that there was trouble, start to run towards it. But as they had gone a bit far, they witness taxidermist animals and humans rising from the surface. They were so ugly looking, with the same twisted nature and broken skin, bones visible. They rose and attacked Sumit and Steven.

Steven uses his powers and shoots energy blasts towards the creatures, vaporizing them almost instantly. He even defends Sumit when he was outnumbered by these freaky animals and humans. Sumit grabbed a shovel from the hay and starts slicing these creatures down, along with Steven who was also using his powers to neutralize them. After a few waves, came a huge taxidermist T-Rex, which seemed as mightier as it looked.

"Sumit, go to the bridge, I will handle all this, I am immortal, don't worry about me, go." Seeing Steven putting himself in danger, Sumit reluctantly left the place. On his way, he was using to shovel to slice down any animal that tried to stop him.

Back in the bridge, Ipsita was having a hard time battling this newly born monster, as it wasn't been cut by the staff's vibration. And to her surprise, the staff's glow was growing fainter. Sanjana realized it glowed too when she was in a rage, so that means it takes power from the person's feelings, his emotions.

She tried to tell Ipsita the same thing, but couldn't as she was focusing to protect herself from the giant monster. Having being exhausted and seeing the staff not working anymore, the tornado's trip turned into a huge fist and punched her down with a huge blow.

Ipsita was now lying on the ground, the staff has fallen away from her hands, repeatedly being punched down. But she was breathing. And to Sanjana's dismay, the evil tornado got his hands into the staff.

As he lifted it, a human-like figure was standing atop the mansion as noted by Sanjana, thinking him to be the boss of all the monsters they have faced. He was giving out his evil laugh, saying now all he has to do is to find the kid. The monster described his will to reanimate the entire army of bandits and ruling the world, making it fall into darkness. Hearing his plans, both Sanjana and Ipsita were terrified. But all of a sudden, the staff reacted.

The staff was trying hard to resist the monster's hands and was continuously giving out green lightning flashes as if it was fully charged. Then it set out a huge explosion, and the monster was again partially destroyed, only for the staff to fly at the beginning of the bridge.

Sanjana, wondering why it flew in that direction, suddenly sees Sumit, entering the bridge holding the staff, in its full power, with the lightning and the sparks, the power that it was supposed to have. The light of full-powered staff of Abyss even bought the unconscious Ipsita back to her senses, sees in astonishment, Sumit walking down the bridge, and murmurs "There he is."

You fight, Making me watch. I am scared, You are powerful. Why are we like this? Why am I forced to watch you fly from my reach?

The storm recognizes Sumit, who in amusement asked him to politely, "Whoever you are, you have done enough already. Leave before I am forced to do any harm to you. You won't win until I am here." Hearing which the monster finally begins to use his full power, with the sky turning dark and the lightning flashing. Sumit, realizing he didn't listen, aims the staff towards him, ready to shoot, and so was the tornado, ready to shoot the lightning.

Seeing an opening, Sanjana runs and grabs Ipsita, and drags her towards the safe spot where she was hiding. Then both of them watch, the full-powered staff, shoot its "Flash of Justice" towards the tornado, eliminating its lightning thunder effortlessly. As soon as the green light struck the tornado, he cried in pain, started to beg for mercy, but he knew no one could help him anymore. He was slowly turned into a huge dark rock, and as the blast continued, he was shattered into dust, thus ending the monster's terror.

As soon as this is over, Sanjana runs towards him and hugs him, saying if he hadn't come in time, they would have died. Sumit, now in tears, was glad to reunite with his sister again. He even went to the girl, thanked her for buying him time, and protecting his family.

Seeing him coming to talk, she showed him the picture of him and Ananya. Seeing which, he asked, "Who are you?" "Ipsita, I was sent here by Ananya's mother for you, I need your help." Hearing the name, even before Sumit could say something, he saw Steven running towards the bridge, saying the T-rex in unbeatable. And to everyone's horror, the T-rex was chasing Steven all the way towards the bridge.

Sumit with his staff ready and Steven with his powers were ready to face the beast. Ipsita also drew her plasma rocket cannon from her bag pack and joined them to defeat the beast. Sanjana moves away, as she was the most vulnerable one.

After being overwhelmed again, Sumit runs towards it, and stabs the T-Rex in its very core, followed by Ipsita's plasma cannons, which weakened it. Then he and Steven combined their energy blasts, finally able to disintegrate the monster. All the enemies were down, but only for a short time.

The group rejoice, but only momentarily. Sanjana explains everything to Sumit, starting from the truth about Rakesh to his mother's death, hearing which he falls on the ground. Steven tried to explain their part of the story, only to be interrupted by an energy blast from the mansion in the middle of the lake.

Sanjana recalls their father was trapped inside the mansion, and the four of them, Sumit, Sanjana, Steven and Ipsita, combine as a team and run towards the mansion to save Rakesh.

Rakesh, on the other hand, runs here and there, as if he was trying to escape from someone. While running he trips and falls over, and before he realizes it, he was cornered by a dark figure. Rakesh, with terrible terror in his eyes, looks at the figure, whose shadow falls on him, and he hears the thing say, in a rather calm human voice "So he is here, and the staff has been revived. Good, my dream will finally become a reality now!"
