ONE SHOTS

love in armour 1

As the sun was marking its arrival in the horizon lazily the misty clouds covering up the ecstatic beauty of the queen of hills accepted it's defeat paving way to the sunrays . The pine trees were dripping drops of rain which was still prevailing from the previous night and a petite figure was tying it's hair in a high bun and wearing it's jacket in her room by the early morning .

One of her roommate Tessa opened her eyes with difficulty to find her friend checking her love her professional camera CANON EOS R3 and said " ennad ipove kelambitiya forestku ?paathu poitu vaa karadi kothu parotta potra podhu"

The girl smiled at her and secured her camera in her bag and turned towards her revealing her look. She have adorned her 5.6 ft height form in a olive v neck sweatshirt paired with  a grey colour cargo pant . She had topped the t shirt with a mustard colour denim Jack and her no makeup face complemented her top knot hairstyle .

She turned towards her and said " karadiku hi solla dhaan madam poren oru national geographyoda wildlife photography internah ipdi asingappadutha koodaadhu nee aanaalum "

Tessa was now completely awake and yawned replying " aama naangalaam destination wedding natural scenearynu eduthutu pona madam andha kaatukulla dhaa poi risk edupenu nikkureenga . Po po bathrama vaa " and left to complete her morning chores.

She was Ayra .... A photography final year student in ooty school of photography. She have been selected as an intern in National geography and her first task was to capture ecstatic variety of birds in ooty . She was all set to accomplish her first task and came out from her hostel to get into her cycle and left towards her journey towards jungle which is gonna unleash much more interesting pages of her life.

Conoor contonment camp ,

The military base was all busy in the early morning and the commotion they were having was unusually more than any other usual days . A military officer was pacing here and there in his cabin and he was waiting for something which was bothering him .

A soldier came  marching towards the officer and saluted the officer and said leuiftenent saxena reporting sir .

The major was looking at them expectantly and he said " all set sir para (sf ) forces safely landed in the target area sir . Target spotted sir "

Major looked at him and asked " what is the status ?"

The soldier replied " commandos are moving forward sir . major VIDHYUTH on lead"

Major smiled and walked towards the control room along with the soldier with confidence beaming in his face by hearing Vidhyuth's name . 

In mid of the pine forests the trees were standing high majestically not even letting the sunlight to peep in completely defeating the sun himself. A small hut with thatched roof was situated in the mid of the pine forest and the interior of the house was filled with computer and few other instruments while 4 men were doing something in it .

The soldiers were walking in camoflege suit carrying their very own INSAS rifle in their hand and a person who was not less than 6 ft was leading them . He was covering his face with paint and a black cloth and only thing that was visible was his eyes. those sharp piercing eyes looked towards his assistant commando and actioned towards him to take 4 soldiers towards the left at the back of the hut and instructed the others to get into the trees around them. He climbed into another tree and was watching the hut with his binoculars . He connected to his earpiece and said " ajay ..... target 4 "

Ajay " target zone clear sir. "

Vidhyuth looked at the positions of his soldiers satisfyingly and turned towards right to find few terrorists coming towards the hut with a trunk in their hand . He guessed it to be the weapon box and instrusted ajay " stay until my command " and  jumped down . Just then he noticed a girl moving towards the target zone with a camera in her hand . He looked at the position of the terrorists as well the girl and figured out that if she walks for another 100 metres she is gonna be held as captive and he didnt want that to happen. He wished to distract the terrorists and threw a stone on the opposite side which made them to look at that side and run towards the direction. Vidhyuth instructed " hold on ... innocent intrusion. don't fire until i instruct to fire "  and started running towards the girl and got himself into a hidespot which was a den like structure in a tree which is sufficiently big for a person to stand .
