Present time:
The streetlights were dim as the mist enclosed it in its mysterious grip. She peered out of her window into the darkness, was there someone out there or was it her imagination? puzzled a observer standing in front of her window, he came there in search of his dog who ran out in the night from his house, by visualising the things happening in front of him, he forgot about the reason why he was there, he looked into the window and it's dark, tried to enter the house, but hesitation stopped him, he became afraid of the further consequence, while standing there he sensed a sniffing and liking at his legs, looked down and saw his dog Rough looking him in a happy mood, he grabbed and kissed it, he decided to go back to his house to avoid further concequence.

Nash was entering his house after work at 7 in evening, he is living single in his 3 bedroom apartment along with his dog, "Woohoo" he sounded while he entered but no response, after undressing came back and called his dog again, since there is no response he wondered where Rough had went.

1 hr earlier
Rough is now sensing a wiered smell, it's ver new to him, he thinks it as a new opponent entered his territory, Rough is the king of his territory for the past 3 months, since he got puberty, he is the alpha male and all the females were very fond of Rough, this new smell triggered his mind to look out for any new comer, so he started barking and jumped out of the gate in search of anyone, after searching for a while he found that this smell is coming from a house two blocks away from him, the smell is now getting intense and Rough thought that it may be a beautiful female with this amazing smell, he entered the house and begun sniffing around and entered the house which was open already, inside he can see a human whose smell is already familiar lying down unconcious, behind him he saw a black shade and found that the smell is coming from there, he went near the shadow and got through it, he can't feel the shade physically, with a fear araising he begun to bark vigorously for a minute, two red pupled eyes opened from the shade and after a while everything got blurred and Rough fainted. He woke up with a screaming sound of Human, while she jump and ran out of the house, the black shade is no more standing there, he sensed a familiar smell which corresponds to his owner, he went out, sniffed and liked his owner.

Nash decided to get into his house with his dog, but he thought of something wiered gonna happens, so Nash along with Rough started running in the direction where the women ran. But, they can't see anyone for about as long as they see, they ran for about 5 minutes, Rough understanding his owners thoughts tried to search for those two smells he remembered from the house, but 5 minutes of their search doesn't shown them any signs of the women or the shade. Nash thought of returning home and called "Rough, Let's go boy" and turned around to see the women who ran away from the house standing in front of him, he froze in fear while seeing her face as her eyes looked with Red puple, Nose bleeding and the mouth protruding her tongues with blood on it , she lifted her hands to slap on Nash face a while Rough started barking and begun to bite her, Nash who came to his senses with the bark begun to scream and called Rough to run away as far as they can, without turning their heads back, they ran to their house and hid inside the closet.

1 and half hours earlier:
Sara was driving her car rashly to reach her home, she was trying to evade something which stood in front of her car, while she was driving in highway. She can't realize what it was but had scary eyes, she reached her house in 5 minutes and closed the door, went inside the kitchen to drink water, but water she sipped is not entering her throat, it started overflowing out of the mouth, she kept the water container aside, went to a washbasin put her index finger into her mouth and started to cough, blood came out like a vomit, it was more, she cleaned her mouth with tap water, after cleaning she noticed a hair like thread coming out of her mouth, she started pulling it and it now become as a mouse tail and it become a rope and then it stuck, she pulled with force and saw a black shadow came out. As soon s she saw it, her blood pressure raised more and she fainted.

5 minutes later:
Nash is now hiding in his closer hugging his dog, slightly opened the door as he sensed a unusual silence in the atmosphere, it was very weird to him as he didn't noticed such a thing in his house before, even when there was power cut he can hear atleast sounds of crickets or the sound of his gold fish hitting the air-water junction. but he feared that may be he bacame dumb and tried to hit his dog, Rough was now sensing that new smell more intensed near him, he turned his head to see his owner, but his owner is not in a good mood to pet him, his owner now hit him on his tail as he barked, now he saw his owner's face has some relaxed feel, but his sudden bark was accompanied by a swing of his front right leg which opened the closet, there he saw something which he never had seen in his whole life. Nash is now mesmerised by the glowing colours outside his closer, he now opened the other door and started geting out of his closet, he now started moving towards the colour nearer to him and touched it, all of a sudden everything begun sticking with one other and formed a beautiful angel like structure, now Nash begun to hear a voice, a very sweet voice, it's so sweet that he thought that he can keep on hearing it all his life. the voice said "don't get afraid, I'm here to help you" it's voice and grace made him think that we can do whatever it says. "go out, take the woman inside your house, do whatever it takes, I'll be with you" the angel gave trust.

Rough waiting for his owner to come was trying to take a nap, while he saw a new female outside his house, it is a street dog but looked amazing, he has never seen someone this much prettier in his life before, jumped the gate and went to sniff her, Four guys who were already following her from the nearby boundry while seeing Rough turned and restarted running, Rough was a well built fully grown adult male, his body and stance looks amazing, any female crossing his boundry will surely fall to him, but not this new missy. She not even giving a side look on Rough, he went in front of her shown his stance, liked her, barked, howled but nothing helped. Rough is now without any hope of winning her went back to home and started taking Nap.

With the brave received from the Voice, Nash started getting out of his house, he saw the women with a petrified face lying on the street, he went to grab her, but she weighted like a ton. While lifting his head he can see a shade like silhouette standing in front of him with Red eyes gazed on him, fear filled his mind, but the voice is getting heard in his ears dissolved the fear, he saw the shadow eye to eye, he sense that he can now pull that women as she now weighted less, he picked her up and came inside house. Rough who was standing inside the house finally whe Nash went in, came out and went in front of the shadow he growled and barked facing it, turned back lifted his tail in pride, with one leg lifted urinated on the shadow, rubbed back legs towards it and came home, "brave boy" Nash told.

2 Hours 5 minutes earlier:
Yama the god of death was floating above an highway listing the no of deaths accounted today as the day is getting over, his job is to take life's from people according to their fate, while Indra king of angels was site seeing the world with his Airavat the big flying white elephant, he noticed Yama and got near him, Yama greeted him as he completed his work, they both started speaking about humans and how they changed their behaviours, this speaking turned into a discussion and to a debate, Yama took stance that people are very much fearfully these days and with the use of fear we can manipulate them, Indra refused and said that Love and Affection can manipulate people and get them out of fear, Finally they made a decision to test on people and they chose a car which is approaching them.

15 Minutes later:
Nash after getting Sara inside house laid her on the floor as she opened her eyes, she smiled at Nash as she woke up and said thanks, Rough watching them thinking about the pretty female as he can feel her smell again outside, he went and see her standing to see Rough, waving her tail and protuding her tongue. Rough went near her and liked her mouth with joy.

Yama and Indra now speaking about the result of their test, Yama told that the worker whom I deputed is just a apprentice, we cannot make decision with his performance, whereas Indra told that don't try to cheat, his performance as far as I know is not like a apprentice, any way I too deputed a less experienced angel from my side, so 1st round is for me, let's test tomorrow another set of people for better results, it's time for me to go, bye.
