Preface
The Inspector rushed in the city hospital; a case was handled to him. A boy was found unconscious in the forest near the city. The boy claimed that it saw some kind of creepy creature in the forest. The boy was isolated after getting separated from his tracker troop, after a hectic search of hours the boy was found unconscious in the deep forest, but there were no tracks of any animal attack on his body.
The Inspector rushed inside the ward room, the boy was sitting on his cot, beside him was siting a lady in mid-thirties, the boy himself was around 18 years of age. The inspector came inside and said, “I am from Mumbai Police, I am here to interrogate him.” The lady replied, “Please have a seat.” The inspector sat on the stool and asked the boy, “What did you saw in the forest?” The boy seemed to be afraid as he looked towards his mother, she took his hand in hers and nodded towards him. On assurance the boy replied, “A creepy shadow.”
The inspector noted down and asked, “Why were you there?” The boy replied, “I was trekking with my friends when I heard someone calling my name, when I went to the direction of voice, I lost my troop. When I walked in the direction further, smoke filled up the surrounding and I saw the creepy shadow.” The inspector gave a weird expression and stood from his place and asked the last question, “Are you sure it wasn’t a bear or something else?” the boy nodded and the inspector left the room.
As he walked out, he saw the boy’s father coming towards him, the inspector greeted him and said, “You should avoid showing horror movies to your lad.” the boy’s father replied, “You know officer, he does not watch T.V.” saying so the father walked away towards the ward where the boy was kept.

Chapter 1
Hyena
“Hyena please get up time for a wash.” The metallic voice of my piggy alarm rang up until I got up and switched it off. I woke up and looked at the empty bed in my room. My roommate hasn’t showed up yet. Today was the first day of my college, and last night was my first night in St. Mary Girls Hostel, I slept late in night as I felt very inconvenient in this new place. This was my instinct I never got adapted to new place soon, it would take me again few weeks to settle here. The cold weather in Sunburg suited me best as it reminded me of my own place in Greenland.
I got up and rushed to the washroom in my compartment, until my partner arrives, I would be the boss here. A warm shower in the cold atmosphere was the best, after the shower I put on my simplest dress and a sweater over it, my aunt has oven it for me. I opened the door of my room and walked through the alley between various compartments, hoping that I would get someone to accompany me to the college but before that I was going to take a breakfast in the cafeteria of the hostel, I looked at the sign convection and reached the cafeteria. It was large, the canteen in my old graduate college was not even half of it. There were few girls in the cafeteria, I hoped those were the one in the first year with me. I hopped through the tables and got an empty one, I put my bag on the chair and went to the counter to order some breakfast. It arrived soon; the taste was good as I gulped the water down a girl sat on the table with me.
I tried to talk to her but I was never good in this kind of stuff, like breaking the ice. The girl came with some breakfast and then she asked me taking the first bite, “College?” it took me while to grasp what she said but then I answered the question, “College of Medicine.” She chewed the bite and then said after few chops, “First year?” I nodded instantly. She said then, “I am Tanu, College of Architect. My roomie can help you she is also in the same college and is your senior. Don’t be shy your one is a good college except your fifth semester seniors, especially boys.” She warned me.
After scoring good in the graduates, I decided to be a pharmacist- okay who I was fooling to, I wanted to be a surgeon but my budget would never afford the high fees of any reputed medical college, so according to my budget this college and hostel fitted me best, even I had no interest in medicines, but I was happy that it had a close resemblance to medical profession.
I got up and walked towards my college, it was just a ten minutes’ walk from hostel, I entered the college gate. The infrastructure was quite good; I would admire the architect for his remarkable work on the building that showed the design of the bricks.
While staring at the building I accidently got bunked into a guy, I fell down as if I was stuck by a wall. Without seeing the face of the guy, I said, “Sorry, I am extremely sorry.” I raised my sight to meet a face of brilliant beauty, he was handsome, extremely handsome. His jawline was nothing less than perfect, his dark eyes were deeper, deeper than sea. For moments I got lost on them, but then the voice pulled me out of it, “It’s okay.” He started walking away, he wore a brown leather jacket, his body was in perfect shape, he walked away. I restored myself, throwing myself at such boys wasn’t kind of my nature but again there was something in him.
