《Wake Up Dead》Chapter-52: The Next Prime Minister

Manish Murthy
“Anyways,” The civilized one turned his head at me and said, “I’m Rachit Rathee, the Nerve Head of The Eye of Suicide.”
“I’m Jay Shetty, the Retina Head,” A man, quite bold and muscular by body, turned back and told me while smoking a cigarette.
“I’m Kabir Khan, the Cornea Head. We specialize in protecting circulating information about TES in the outside world. Quite a burden, pal!”
“And I’m the Iris Head,” Kritika said in her same old expressions. “I go out, take up some killing contract and all that stuff. But, I also help in the Nerve part of killings sometimes.” Then, she turned at them and said, “Well, I was here to discuss about something important, actually.”
“What’s it?” Rachit asked. Kritika walked and sat beside him on the sofa.
“Manny!” Kritika called to someone and spread her arms on top of the sofa. “Take this man to your room!”
A man, with quite a normal physique, walked out from inside the dark corridor present on the left and said, “C’mon, Kriti, at least lemme sleep in peace!” He stretched his arms in the air and yawned. His white shirt’s buttons were open, exposing his whole torso. I noticed that his body was, in fact, quite muscular, but it was not so thick like others. He just had some good six-pack abs. He then looked at me, scratched his hair and said, “Sorry for this type of welcome, kiddo. I’m Manuel Levi.” He then turned at the rest of the team and said, “Don’t y’all have any other task the whole day?”
“Shut up, you damned slave,” Jay replied.
“He’s correct,” Kritika supported him. “Anyways, Levi,” She turned towards him and said, “This is Manish, the newbie I was talking about. He’s your new roommate, go sleep with him.”

“Haha! Got a pair of gays here too!” Jay said.
Levi walked towards me and said, “Don’t listen to those useless scumbags, kiddo. Come with me,” He wrapped his arm around my neck and pushed me towards the gate.
Rahul Khanna
We were inside a large room, sitting on the ground on mats. Before us was a desk, where Prime Minister Keshav was sitting, thinking deeply about something. We all wore white kurta-pajamas, our traditional dress as politicians, and said, “I wanna tell you all something about a very urgent matter.” I inhaled some breath, preparing for the worst. “Today, Rahul Khanna told me that TES has taken their support back, that’s why I called for a meeting just after half an hour.” Everyone was in an uproar. Everyone started discussing on their own, commenting on the matter. “That’s why…” He suddenly said, “We need to discuss which gang we should choose next to back us.”
“But sir,” I said. “They backed out support so easily. Don’t you think it is kind of shameful, considering we are actually leading this country for quite some time?”
“Yes, it surely is shameful!” Someone else said.
“We first have to handle TES, and then we’d think of hiring someone else!” Another one from the audience said.
“If this news leaks outside in the underground world, our reputation would be ruined!”
“Stop it, you all,” I stood up. “Sir, I guess that we should first discuss about what the people of the party want. We can conduct a voting later about whom we should contact to back us.”
“Hmm…” He thought. “Okay, if you all say so. We should first discuss what measures we should take to protect our dignity.”
Everyone nodded. They all had serious expressions on their faces. Moreover, they looked determined too. “So, as I think,” I said. “We should not involve the police and other investigative agencies, or they’d easily name us too in the matter. We should do something where none of it is involved, but TES is ruined, or faces fatal damage too.”

“I agree,” Someone said.
“I agree too,” Said another voice. Then, they all started chanting in unison, “I agree too!” “Yes, he’s absolutely right!”
“Hmph, how easy it is to manipulate them all, especially you…” He turned at PM and continued, “…Prime Minister.”
“Okay then,” The Prime Minister said. “But, then how should we proceed?”
“Firstly,” I said. “We should set up a committee and investigate on TES. A team, led by Kartik Khandelwal, is already investigating TES. We can get some information from there. But, we should we very careful while getting the information, because if they already have some slight hints that we’re with them. Therefore, they won’t give it to us easily. Anyways, we should first get that information, then we can hire another agency to battle them. Easy.” I shrugged.
“There are no organizations, groups or teams which even have a chance to stand beside them,” One of them said.
“Tsk! They caught me. But, it was an easy one too,” I thought.
“That’s where the main problem lies. We don’t have any other option than TES itself if we want to take revenge. But, there’s one thing we can do,” The Prime Minister said. “We can form a club of all those mafia groups that we have hired, and then we will merge them to attack at TES’ base.”
“We don’t know yet where TES’ base is, for now,” I commented.
“But the team investigating will eventually get to know in some time.”
I nodded at Keshav’s reply. I thought, “Maybe he’s not that bad a pawn as I thought he is. Anyways, to become PM next time, I needa kill him anyhow.” In my mind, I had a great devilish smile as I thought, “EVERYTHING’S GOING ON AS PLANNED. HE’LL BE KILLED, AND I’LL BECOME THE NEXT PRIME MINISTER!”

Doctor // Kidnapped Dreamnotfound AU
Why would anyone bother going to the hospital when they have an injury when you can just kidnap your own personal doctor?Dream. A serial killer who often gets into some messy situations with rivals. Those messy situations tend to leave Dream battered, bruised, and shot. He's not the best doctor, but he knows who is. George. A doctor in training at the hospital that he's had his eye on for more time than he'd like to admit.More explanation: Dream's a serial killer & kidnapper who normally works alone. However he does occasionally work with his friends, one of those friends being Sapnap, but we'll get into all of those people later. Dream isn't good at treating bullet wounds or cuts, despite having to do so quite often. So he does something that he IS good at. Kidnapping. Only this time instead of playing mind games with his captive and killing them after, he's going to be kidnapping someone who can help him whenever he gets hurt, which unluckily for the both of them, will be pretty often. Despite George technically still being in training as a doctor, Dream wouldn't dream of passing up an opportunity to not only gain the much needed help in treating his wounds, but also a very pretty boy that would be under his control.TW's! I will explain everything about TW's in the first chapter as well as other stuff in the first chapter.Updates: Once a week. I kind of just update whenever I want though.The reason being for this is because I have actually written a book in the past and I've found that if I have much more time to write the chapters, they tend to be much higher quality and longer. Which means a better reading experience for you guys as well as a better writing experience for myself.I started writing this at like 3am and didn't account for the fact that I have like- no idea how to treat wounds (overall) but uh- too late now I guess...Cover art by wanderlustlily on tumblr
