ShivA
Chapter 2

The receptionist asked the man about him being the special guest, the man said yes by bowing his head down a little. They both walked towards the registration table, the receptionist asked the man for his name and he answered ‘Shiva’ in a most diligent voice. The moment Shiva said his name, the storm stopped the sound of breathing was the only audible thing. Ramesh the receptionist too was shocked by this uncanny silence. Ramesh further asked for his full name, and he said ‘Aadiyogi Shiva’ and the thunder rumbled, wind blew crazily, it rained heavily and the storm caught it rage again. The rage of storm was so at its peak as if the nature itself had realized that the end of cruelty is near. Ramesh got confused by the name and he being living foreign, Ramesh asked Shiva the same. Shiva replied ‘that’s my secret brother, I always live with you, among you and for you, and you just have to notice carefully’. While giving keys to Shiva, Ramesh said ‘wow that’s a strange answer, by the way your room is 108 sir, let me help you with your case’. They both walked upstairs for the room, Ramesh placed the case near the sofa and at the door he asked Shiva to meet the manager in the lounge for dinner and the manager had requested his presence there.
After refreshing himself Shiva went towards the lounge for the dinner. When he entered the lounge everyone there was baffled by his irresistible charm. His eyes were as clear as crystal, nothing could be hidden from them. No one there was even comparable with him. The manager-Arjun welcomed Shiva and asked him to order anything he wants. While they were having their dinner, Arjun asked him about the purpose of his arrival. Siva said “the high authority of the company in which I work, is facing some major issues in this branch here. Employees are getting corrupted by external brokers, and I am here to uproot the corruption and eliminate the brokers”. The manager then asked “did the high authority sent you”? To which Shiva answered “I am the high authority, one of my employee requested me and called me by her heart”. “That’s very generous” the manager said. After having the dinner everyone went to their respective rooms and fell asleep there. After the midnight Shiva woke up got refreshed and disappeared in a blink.
Group of 60-70 demons had their residence in the graveyard of the city. This group was led by Tanakasur, a demon who got a boon from Lord Brahma that, while on earth Lord Vishnu won’t be able to do anything to him. As Lord Vishnu was the nightmare for the demons back then. Shiva appeared at the gate of that graveyard, the demons turned their attention towards him, every demon present there laughed at the unarmed man. One of the demon said ‘look a vessel itself has come for us’. Shiva replied them “unlike you I am not empty to make noise”. The demons got angry and attacked him. Bare handed Shiva killed 40-50 of them while the demons did not even moved him from his place. One of the demon thought that he might be Kalki, aka the incarnation of Lord Vishnu, the demon laughed wildly and called Tanakasur as he had a boon of Lord Brahma with him. Tanakasur kicked Shiva from behind and made him fall at the center of the graveyard. Then he (Tanakasur) said “now I can settle everything with you Vishnu, the lives of my fellow demons you took over the ages can finally rest now”. Shiva stood up wiped dirt from his suit and said “well, well, well, remember this, whenever you ought to do anything stupid just like this, first of all you have to expect the worst case scenario, and now in your case that scenario of yours is me”. After saying so Shiva takes his natural form. Every demon present there, experiences a deep trauma. Tanakasur in a fearful voice says “but, but, it was said that Vishnu will appear in such a conditions”. Lord Shiva takes their Trident and throws it towards Tanakasur. Had him beheaded Lord Shiva says
“It is not always the job of protector, sometimes you have to destroy the wickedness”.
