"Who Rules the World: The Greatest Love"
Chapter 4: Determination
Shruthi glared Abhijeet from behind and sighed, "Ye ladka kabhi nahi sudarega".
She went from there.
Abhijeet took several breaths and controlled his pain.
Scene 1:
Next day:-
As usual, Abhijeet was injured badly by those wooden soldiers as he failed to control his anger.
They purposefully agitated him by scolding and mocking his family.
He failed to control his anger and rushed towards them and beaten by them badly.
Shruthi sighed, "Tum kab samjhoge yaar?"
Abhijeet sighed, "Shayad mujh se nahi hoga"
"Aisa nahi hai Abhijeet, tum se hoga lekin tum koshish nahi kar rahe", Shruthi said.
"Lekin jab bhi mere family ki baat aati hai toh gussa ajata hai mujhe", Abhijeet said.
"Abhijeet, agar sach mein dushman ke haat lag gaye toh kya karoge tum?", Shruthi asked.
"Arey tum log hona madad karona", Abhijeet said.
"Sharam naam ki koi cheese hai ki nahi? Tum mere liye lagta kya hai ki mai tumhari madad karu? Mai tumhe sirf takatwar bana rahi hu bas, madad vadad nahi karnewaali", Abhijeet mimicked her which stunned Anusha and Shruthi.
"Kya baat hai Shruthi, ye kitna accha mimick karta hai tumhara", Anusha laughed.
"Nalayak, ye kaha se seekha tumne?", Shruthi asked.
"Voh usne sikhaya hai mujhe", Abhijeet said.
"Usne kisne?", Shruthi asked.
"Voh jiska naam sun na tumhe pasand nahi", Abhijeet pouted.
Shruti looked at his cute pout and felt like to pull his cheeks but she controlled her emotions and rolled her eyes, "Purvi!"
Abhijeet nodded.
"Teak hai , pandra(15)minute yahi raho andar mat aana", Shruthi said and went inside.
"kyaa? Voh kyun?", Abhijeet asked.
But Shruthi didn't hear that.
Anusha said, "Jald hi gusse pe kaabu karo tumhare kiye bahut accha hoga".
She went from there.
"Kya mai sach mein apne gusse ko kaabu mein kar sakta hu?", Abhijeet mumbled and looked at the sky.
After 10 minites, he felt thirsty.
"Yaar paani bhi nahi hai yaha, iske liye bhi andar jana padega kya?", Abhijeet annoyed.
He remembers servants bring everything he wanted but now?
He sighed and stood up.
"Lekin Shruthi 15 minute tak andar aane ke liye mana kiya hai na? Huh... kuch toh kichdi paka rahi hai voh dekh leta hu", Abhijeet said and stepped inside.
As soon as he stepped inside his eyes widened.
Unfortunately he didn't see her face instead he looked down.
"Aaaahhhhh", Shruthi screamed and throw her dress directly into his face.
"Maine maine dekha nahi", Abhijeet quickly said .
"Besharam, ab toh daffa hojaaao", Shruthi shouted.
"Ha, ha abi gaya", Abhijeet quickly ran away from there.
Shruthi mumbled, "He didn't see my face, did he?"
She went out after quickly wearing another dress and started cursing him, "15 saal ki bacchi hu mai aur tum 17 saal ke. Sharam nahi aati aise chote bacchi ko dekhte huye? Kuch toh sharam karo , ye tumhara ghar nahi hai"
"Mera kya dosh? Ghar mein ek darwaza bhi nahi ismen mai kya kar sakta hu?", Abhijeet stammered.
"Accha? Maine kya kaha ta? ", she started moving towards him with anger, "Bolo maine kya kaha ta?"
"Yahi...yahi ki 15 minute baad aana", Abhijeet said.
"Tumhe samajh mein nahi aata kya? 10 minute mein andar kyun aaye tum?", Shruthi shouted.
"Yaha kaun sa clock hai jo time dikhata hai, mujhe pyaas lagi ti isiliye andar aaya. Vaise bhi tu keh sakti ti ki nahaane jaa rahi hai , kaha kyun nahi? Vaise bhi tumne kuch pehen ke rakhi ti na maine sab kuch nahi dekha", Abhijeet casually said.
Shruthi opened her mouth in 'o' shape and realised that he looked at her fully.
When he said these words casually she urged to kill him, "Get out, I said Get out!!!?"
Abhijeet throw her dress away and ran towards the jungle.
"Phattu kahinka,nalayak , nikamma, huh...", Shruthi shouted and subconsciously covered her body with her arms, "Damn you Abhijeet".
She cursed again and went inside in order to prepare break fast.
After one hour, Abhijeet returned.
Shruthi glared at him but didn't say anything.
All three of them sat down.
Abhijeet amd Anusha started having dosa.
Anusha looked at both of them and realised that something is wrong.
"Kya huva? Aisa kyun gussa ho tum iss ladke pe?", Anusha asked her grand daughter.
"Kuch nahi voh darasal", Abhijeet tried to say the truth but Shruthi shouted, "Maar daalungi tumhe, chup chaap khaana khaalo"
Abhijeet gulped and nodded.
Anusha saw strange feeling on Shruthi's face where as Abhijeet is totally normal.
Shruthi was stunned and mumbled unknown to herself, "Ye ladka sach mein normal hai ya natak kar raha hai? Yaa phir mai khubsurat nahi hu?"
"Damn it , Shruthi tu choti bacchi hai sirf 15 saal ki, ye kya soch rahi hai?"
She smacked her own head sighed.
"Shruthi beta tum teak ho?", Anusha asked.
"Haan? Ha dadi ma, mai teak hu, tere liye aaj sirf 3 dosa bas", Shruthi glared at Abhijeet.
Abhijeet nodded gently and ran out again.
"In donnonko aakhir huva kya?", Anusha mumbled.
After half an hour, Abhijeet returned but didn't see any of them.
"Ye donno kaha gaye? Kahi mujhe maarne ke liye plan toh nahi bana rahe? "
"Lekin ismein meri galti kya hai? Usse batana chahiye ta vaise bhi maine jaan buchke todi na ki hai aur mujhe kitne bhi kubsurat ladki dikhe , mai Purvi ke alava kisi aur se pyaar nahi karnewala", Abhijeet mumbled and sat down.
He felt bored, "Shayad jungle mein gaye honge", he slowly started walking towards the jungle.
"Shruthi, Dadi ma... arey kaha ho tum log?", Abhijeet taking steps inside the forest and shouted.
Anusha and Shruthi who were planning to hunt the wild boar in front of them but stunned.
"Ye ladka yaha toh nahi aa raha?", Anusha mumbled.
"Arey Shruthi, kaha ho yaar? Mujhe bore hone laga hai", Abhijeet shouted again..
"Jaldi maaro usse nahi toh voh Abhijeet ki taraf bhaagega", Anusha shouted.
Shruthi pointed the arrow towards wild boar and released but wild boar escaped and ran towards Abhijeet.
"Shruthi, dadi ma", Abhijeet shouted.
"Abey kaminey yaha aane ke liye kisne kaha tumhe? Bhaago Abhijeet jaldi", Shruthi shouted webt behind that boar.
"Kya? Leki... teri toh junglee suvar nahiiiii", Abhijeet used his all energy and ran towards their little house.
Shruthi released another arrow.
It pierced boar's body but failed to hold it down.
Wild boar got angry and increased its speed.
Abhijeet looked here and there but all trees are big.
"Damn it, pedh pe chadhna seekh na chahiye ta"Abhijeet shouted and tried to speed up.
Shruthi released her last arrow but missed.
She shouted, "Abhijeet, jaldi daaye aur baaye bhaag jao, suvar itni raftaar mein mood nahi sakta"
"Kya kaha tumne?", Abhijeet slow down and turned towards her.
"Abey pagal ruka kyun?", Shruthi shouted from behind.
"Nahiiiii", Wild boar attacked Abhijeet and at the same moment Anusha killed with her knife.
Wild boar's attack was so strong and Abhijeet directly fell into the river.
Anusha 's knife killed the wild boar.
"Shruthi, jaao aur usse bachaao mai iss suvar ko dekhti hu", Anusha shouted.
"Ji dadi ma", Shruthi didn't waste time and throw her bow.
She directly jumping into the river.
She quickly found Abhijeet and lifted him onto her back.
If anyone saw this, they will be left shocked.
15 year old little girl actually lifted Abhijeet that too from the river with ease?
Really shocking!!
Shruthi pulled him out of the river and patted his cheeks, "Abhijeet, Abhijeet utho"
She pressed his stomach and helped the water to go out.
She patted his cheeks again and again and pressed his heart , "Aise daraao mat,ankhe kholo na please"
She shouted again and again but no use.
Scene 2:
"Abhijeet!!!", Shruthi tried everything...
But no use.
After sometime, Abhijeet slowly opened his eyes.
"Mai kaha hu?", he looked here and there but stunned to see the girl in front of him.
She just gave her breath to him but what shocked him was her face.
"Purvi!!! tum ..tum Purvi ho naa?", Abhijeet shouted .
But suddenly fell unconscious again.
"Jeetu, Jeetu ankhe kholo na, Abhijeeetttt", she shouted and easily lifted him on her back and ran from there.
After one hour, Abhijeet opened his eyes, "Purviiiii"
He held her hand shouted with excitement.
Slap!
She gentle smacked his hand and shouted, "Phir se shuru hogaye tum? Mai Purvi nahi hu, nahi hu nahi huuuuu. Mai Shruthi hu"
Abhijeet was shocked and looked around, "Nahi nahi, Purvi!!!Purviiii"
He ran here and there like a kid .
"Purvi, mujhe pata hai ki tum yahi ho, mai tumhara Abhijeet yaar,bahar aao na please. Purviiii"
"Pagal ho kya? Yaha koi Purvi nahi hai, tum ghayal ho araam Karo ", Shruthi pulled him back and forcefully held him down.
"Lekin Purvi, mera Purvi ", Abhijeet held her hand and shouted.
"Abhijeet yaha koi Purvi nahi hai dekho na please", Shruthi shouted.
Abhijeet cried hard , "Purviiiiiii"...
Shruthi and Anusha glanced at each other...
Abhijeet slowly calmed down, "Purviii"
"Ab teak ho na tum?", Shruthi asked.
Abhijeet now realised what had happened.
He fumed, "Pagal ho kya? Mere peeche junglee suvar ko choda tumne? Murder karwadunga tumhara"
Shruthi glared at him, "Kaminey, maine todi na kaha ta mere peeche aao, kyun aaye tum vaha? Hum suvar ko pakadne hi waale te lekin ye sab tumhare vajah se hai samjhe"
Abhijeet slowly asked, "Toh kya aaj mujhe bhooka rehna padega?"
Shruthi looked at him and then laughed, "Sach mein aaj tu marega mere haato se. Ek toh tumhari vajah se humhe kilometre tak bhaagna pada dusra tumhe bachaane ke kiye nadi mein khoodna padha lekin tumhe sirf apne peth ki padhi hai"
She wished to kick him but looking at his injury she controlled her anger.
"Sab kuch teri galti hai", Abhijeet said.
"Teri toh...",Shruthi about to kick him but Anusha stopped her, "Arey Shruthi , rukna . Dekho ye ghayal hai isse kuch mat karna meri ma..chalo isse andar leke chalo marampatti karni hai"
"Aaj tu bach gaya, lekin kal sach mein maar daalungi tumhe", Shruthi glared at him and with the help of Anusha took him inside.
"Halwa samajh...aaahhhh nahi nahi kuch nahi kahunga chodo mujhe dhaayan", Abhijeet shouted in pain as she pressed his wound a little.
"Ek din mujhe mauka milega tab tujhe dekh lunga", Abhijeet thought inside.
Shruthi smiled and left him which made Abhijeet collapse on the ground.
Anusha too almost collapsed, "Shruthi ye kya kar rahi ho tum?"
"Bolo kya karega tu?", Shruthi kept her hands on her waist and glared at him.
Abhijeet gulped and nodded as no, "kuch nahi"
"Dekh, tu jab se yaha aaya hai tab se musibat aa rahe hai man karta hai tumhe yaha se bhagaa du, bolo kya karu?", She asked.
"Mujhe takatwar banaado, naa hi tumhari zarurat rahegi mujhe naa hi tumhe mujhe jhelna padgega", Abhijeet said with a smile.
"Ye ladka,kabhi nahi sudharega", Shruthi sighed rolling her eyes.
Abhijeet was stunned again.
Purvi always said this dialogue while kept rolling her eyes.
"Kyun? Aisa kyun kar rahi ho tum? Har baat, tumhari har baat aur harkate Purvi ki tarah hai jisse mujhe takleef ho rahi hai samajh mein nahi aata tumhe?", Abhijeet shouted.
Shruthi about to shout but when she saw his tears she stopped herself.
"Ab ro kyun rahe ho tum?", Anusha asked.
"Aur kya karu? Iss ladki ki vajah se mujhe pal pal Purvi ki yaad aa raha hai jisse mujhe bahut takleef ho raha hai, ye samajh ti kyun nahi?", Abhijeet shouted.
"Dekh, tu phir se Purvi Purvi jhapta raha toh yaha se jaa sakta hai. Vaise bhi bahut ameer ho na tum jaao jaake kisi aur ke ghar mein raho ", Shruthi said.
"Lekin galti tumhari hai , tum Purvi ki tarah bartaav karti ho toh mai kya karuuu?", he shouted again.
"Dadi ma, isse yaha se bahar chodke aao", Shruthi said and went from there.
Abhijeet took a deep breath and said, "Agar aisi baat hai toh mai chala jaaunga mujhe bhi tum logonko tang karne ka mann nahi hai vaise bhi Purvi mere zindagi hai isiliye chahe kuch bhi ho mai usse bhool nahi sakta"
He said and started walking towards the forest.
Shruthi and Anusha were surprised.
"Ruko", Anusha shouted.
"Maaf kijiye dadi ma lekin mai nahi ruknewala", Abhijeet stopped but didn't turn.
"Lekin tum karoge kya? Voh log shayad ab bhi tumhe dundh rahe honge agar tum vaha gaye toh maare jaaoge", Shruthi said.
"Ek na ek din marnaa hi hai, vaise bhi mai kuch na kuch zarur karunga lekin Purvi se mile bagair marungaa nahi", Abhijeet started moving out again.
"This stubborn guy", Shruthi glared and rushed towards him.
"Ab kya hai?", Abhijeet saw she is holding his hand so he asked.
"Mai tumhe sab kuch sikhaaungi lekin ek shart pe", Shruthi said.
"Agar Purvi ka naam nahi lena hai toh ye mujhe manzur nahi hai", Abhijeet shook his head.
"Voh nahi hai lekin tumhe pehle apne gusse pe kaabu karna hai yahi ek condition hai meri", Shruthi left his hand and said.
"Zarur koshish karunga mai", Abhijeet's eyes brightened a little and he hugged her tightly.
Shruthi was dumbstruck...
"Ye...ye tum... abey chal hat... ", She recovered quickly and pushed him away with her usual rough and tough attitude.
"Aaahh... araaam se yaar dard hota hai ", Abhijeet said.
"Chalo practice phir se shuru karo", Shruthi said and looked at his eyes and read his mind.
Abhijeet went inside the forest again.
Shruthi was stunned, "Aaj subaha jo kuch bhi huva sach mein bhool chuka hai ye ladka lekin mai kyun bhool nahi paa rahi?"
It was a very awkward situation between them.
Shruthi even though 15 year old , but that situation made her realise one new feeling.
But shockingly Abhijeet was not affected at all this shows the depth of love he has for Purvi.
"Kya mai sach mein kubsurat nahi hu?", Shruthi mumbled.
"Kya matlab? Shruthi ye kya bol rahi ho tum?", Anusha asked with a frown.
"Haan...kuch..kuch nahi dadi ma mujhe kaam hai",Shruthi mumbled and ran away with slight blush.
"She is entering the teenage", Anusha mumbled.
One day passed, two days passed, three , four , five..
Abhijeet failed to control his anger.
But after 15 consecutive days finally he achieved his impossible task.
Even after one hour, wooden soldiers failed to find him.
Abhijeet was super happy, "Dekha , dekha tumne Shruthi, mai jeet gaya mai jeet gaya"
He was extremely happy and held her hand and excited.
Shruthi looked at him and their hands again and again..
"Abhijeet", Anusha looked at them and shouted.
"Ji dadi ma", Abhijeet left Shruthi's hands and went near her.
"Shabhash , aakhirgaar tumne apne gusse pe kaabu kar hi li", Anusha gently patted his head.
"Ha dadi ma, aap donno ke bina ye mumkin nahi taa", Abhijeet smiled and glanced at Shruthi.
His eyes expressed thanks.
Shruthi stunned by his eyes, "Mujhe ... mujhe ho kya raha hai?"
She is about to remove her mask but suddenly she controlled her emotions, "Damn it, this guy..."
"Chalo khana khaalo aur agle training ke liye taiyyar hona hai", Shruthi glared at him.
"Arey tumhe 'welcome' bolne ka aadad nahi hai kyaa?", Abhijeet shouted.
"Akal ke dushman, tu mere ghar mein hi reh raha hai toh mai 'welcome' kyun bolu?", Shruthi laughed.
"Ha ye bhi sahi hai", Abhijeet smiled and nodded.
All had lunch.
Abhijeet was surprised, "Arey aaj achaar bhi hai khaane mein?"
Shruthi smiled, "Itna bada suvar jo mila isiliye khaane mein ek extra item"
Anusha laughed, "Agar tum nahi hote toh ye suvar milta nahi"
"Dekha, mere vajah se suvar ko maar giraya tumne", Abhijeet laughed and winked at her.
"Tum...chodo ", Shruthi couldn't say anything.
Unknowingly she is started attract towards him.
"Aisa chalta raha toh sab kuch khatam hojaayega, mushkil se isse sahi raaste pe leke aayi hu mai, apne aap ko control karna sikho Shruthi", she mumbled.
"Kya control? Kya bol rahi hai tu?", Anusha heard this and asked .
"K .kuch nahi", Shruthi glanced at Abhijeet and shook her head.
Anusha narrowed her eyes, "Ye ladki Abhijeet ko baar baar aise kyun dekh rahi hai? Ye mat kehna ye pasand karne lagi hai Abhijeet ko"
But Anusha was damn sure that Abhijeet has no feelings for Shruthi.
No matter what, Abhijeet's love for Purvi is well known to her.
Its been month since she is living with Abhijeet and always heard about Purvi.
He is loving her more than anything in this world.
Anusha glanced at Shruthi, "Ye ladki sachai bol kyun nahi rahi?"
Shruthi smiled, "Mere kuch reasons hai dadi ma, aap nahi samjhegi"
"Mai ek baat kehna chahti hu, tum ab bhi choti bacchi ho isiliye aisa kuch mat sochna", Anusha glared at her.
"K..kya? Aisa...aisa kuch nahi hai voh voh Abhijeet", Shruthi stammered and almost ran away from there.
Anusha sighed, "Shruthi mai nahi jaanti tum asal mein kaun ho? Lekin Abhijeet tum se pyaar nahi karnewala yaad rakhna, Purvi ke uper bahut pyaar hai usse, antata tumhe nirasha hi milega ".
Abhijeet was not aware of this .
Even if he comes to know, he won't be affected at all.
His love for Purvi is too high and pure .
Following days, Purvi taught him jungle life.
How to hunt, how to survive in the jungle.
How to climb tree and mountain.
How to survive from wild animals .
Abhijeet was a quick learner so he he learned everything in one month span.
Scene 3:
Next day:
Shruthi said, "Chalo ek round forest ko ghumke aao", she looked at the sky and then planted on stick on the ground.
She pointed the shadow, "Ye shadow yaha aane se pehle tumhe vapas aana hoga, lagbhag 30 minute hai tere paas".
"Lekin jungle jaanwar aagaye toh?", Abhijeet asked.
"Maine sab kuch mark karke aayi hu, jaao shuru hojaao", Shruthi shouted .
Abhijeet slowly removed her bandage around his neck and started running inside the forest.
He saw right arrow mark and started running in that direction.
Purvi taught him how to count time even without watch so he counted every seconds.
After 3 minutes he stopped, "1 minute araam karleta hu"
He sat down and opened the water bottle and drank a little bit.
"Ha ha ha, dekho dekho kaun hai humhare saamne?", suddenly Abhijeet heard one mocking voice.
Abhijeet raised his head and stunned, "Nahi phir se nahi".
There were more than 10 people standing in front of him holding various weapons in their hands.
"Bhaad mein jaao tum", Abhijeet showed them a middle finger and ran away.
"Besharam baccha, dekh kya rahe ho khatam kardo usse", leader shouted and ran behind them.
Abhijeet waved his hand.
Small needles rushed towards tree in his left.
Swoosh...
Suddenly one big wooden trunk smashed to three of them..
"Aaaahhhhhh" , all three of them screamed in pain and collapsed.
Abhijeet looked behind and showed them middle finger again, " Agar himmat hai toh pakad ke dikhaao"
"Ye shaitani baccha, Aaj tukde tukde karunga tumhara".
He was not a fool so he quickly called, "Jaldi aao, voh kameena Srivastav mil chuka hai chaaro taraf se gher lo usse"
Abhijeet was shocked a little, "Nahi, mai inke haato pakad nahi sakta mujhe apne maa baap ko chudana hai, Purvi se vapas milna hai, mujhe takatwar bhi ban na hai"
He mumbled and quickly changed his direction.
"Tum kahi nahi bhaag sakte", Three people came from that direction.
"Damn it", Abhijeet cursed but didn't panic.
He waved his hand again.
One small knife appeared from his shirt.
He throw it towards the leader.
"You missed it", leader laughed and rushed again.
"Ummahh", Abhijeet gave a tight kiss in the air.
Swoosh!
Leader's eyes widened and he bent down.
Even though he escaped, his people are not that lucky.
Five arrows killed five guards behind him.
The entire forest filled with their scream.
"You bastard, agar tum pakade gaye toh aisi maut dunga ki tum dubara janam lene se daroge", leader shouted and throw big knife.
Abhijeet laughed and escaped from that weapon, "Arey pehle pakad ke.. nahi nahi, mujh se bachke dikhaao"..
"Damn this coward, himmat hai toh ruko , agar ek baap se janam liya hai toh rukna", Leader shouted.
Thanks to his training, Abhijeet didn't get angry.
He felt little funny and excited to see leader's frustration, "Abey kutte, agar tum ek baap se janam liya hai toh mujhe pakad ke toh dikhaao"
"You...dekh kya rahe ho pakado usse", leader shouted.
Abhijeet looked around and stopped.
Because he was surrounded by more than thirty people.
He was calm and even smiled looking at the leader.
"Ha ha,koi akhri kwayish?", leader laughed along with others.
"Ha mujhe tumhare sar alag karna hai", Abhijeet winked at him.
"Taange todo aur ghaseet ke laao usse", Leader shouted.
PHEWWWWWWW!
Suddenly Abhijeet heard strange whistle sound.
Leader and others thought may be some birds.
But Abhijeet gave a mysterious smile as he knew Anusha or Shruthi already arrived to help him.
Abhijeet suddenly throw the knife towards the big tree.
One wooden rope appeared.
Abhijeet quickly held it and cut the rope on the other side.
In front of leader and his companions eyes he disappeared.
"Pakado usse", all throw their various weapons but no use..
Abhijeet already disappeared.
"Ha ha, kameeno , 30 log ek bacche ko pakad nahi paaye, ha ha, Chitrole chacha kis kaam ka ?" , Abhijeet's voice heard from all directions.
Leader and others couldn't figure out from which direction his voice is coming.
"Tch tch, coward boy, aise besharm aur kayar ki tarah chup kyun raha hai saamne aao na", Leader slowly signalled all of them to search.
"Ahhhhhh", suddenly one guard screamed and fell down.
No breath, dead!!
All of them stunned.
"Tch tch tch, shayad iski aayu ki rekha khatam hogaya isiliye mar gaya , so sad", Abhijeet let out a long sigh.
Leader throw the knife in that direction but no use.
"You missed it bad fat boy", Abhijeet's laugh heard everywhere.
"Damn this boy, ye itna hoshiyaar kab se ban gaya?", leader fumed.
"Maine suna hai tumhare shadi huye 2 saal hogaye lekin ab bhi bacche nahi huye hai, mai kuch madad Karu kya?", Abhijeet appeared in front him and laughed.
"You...you , maaro usse", leader shouted..
Three gaurds rushed towards him.
Abhijeet jumped behind the tree and disappeared.
"AAHHHHHH" , Three guards secreamed in horror.
When leader and others reached them , they already dead.
Three sharp knives penetrated their neck.
"Abhijeet, agar tum apne aap surrender karoge toh hum kuch madad karenge nahi toh aisi maut denge ki..." before leader could say another man fell down.
Poisonous Snake!!!
"Aaahh saamp", few men screamed and cut that snake into pieces.
"Ye ye original nahi hai", they saw plastic pieces in front of them.
"ABHIJEET!!!!", Leader shouted and rushed front.
"Ajaaa , tere liye bahut kuch rakha hai maine", Abhijeet who is hiding just above him smiled.
Shruthi already warned him that those people still waiting for him outside.
So he asked Shruthi to prepare traps for them.
Now he is like a junglee kid who knew everything about the forest.
He is using these traps for the kill.
Swooshh!!
Seven arrows rushed towards leader.
"Ahhhhh", leader screamed in horror..
He escaped from the death but three arrows smashed his arm, leg and shoulder.
"Tch, tch, dekho hoshiyaar takatwar Chitrole ka chamcha kaise ro raha hai , so sadddd", Abhijeet's voice heard .
This time all of them frightened..
Half of the team were killed by Abhijeet alone.
"Ahhhhhh", suddenly another one screamed in horror.
Leader and others saw one masked girl standing in front of them.
She is holding gigantic well built guy like a chicken in her little hand.
Knife already smashed his heart.
"You...choti bacchi", another guy glared and rushed towards her.
She disappeared all of a sudden.
"So fast!", Abhijeet was astonished looking at her speed.
He knew she is none other than Shruthi only.
But her speed and skills shocked him to the core.
"Mujhe bhi aisa ban na hai", he clenched his fists and determined strongly, "Apne logonko bachaunga ek din".
He said and disappeared.
"Ahhhhhh", another one fell down.
Leader was stunned.
Masked girl's knife fully covered in blood.
He is the only one left in their team.
She slowly walked towards him looking at him like a mere prey, "Tumhe yaha nahi aana chahiye ta".
"Tum...tum kaun ho? Hum hum kaun hai pata hai tumhe?",Leader shouted and tried to kill her with his knife.
"Ahhhhhhh", the very next second his entire arm was cut off.
"Mujhe sunaayi nahi diya phir se kahoge?", Masked girl asked with a smile.
Ahhhh... killer smile!
"Ahhhh...mujhe chod do, mujhe chod do please, mai phir se nahi aaunga yaha", leader was horrified looking at that little girl.
His people are more than 100 kg and well trained.
But this little girl killed them like killing ants.
She smiled, "Jaao jaake apne maalik se kaho, Abhijeet ko marnaa itna asaan nahi hai, usse kaho apne kingdom se Shadow Kings ko bheje"
The leader was stunned, "Tum... tumhe kaise pata? Tum ho kaun?????"
"Ek minute ka vakt hai agar mere ankho ke saamne raha toh maar daalungi", Masked girl laughed.
"Ahhhhhhh", leader screamed and ran away with his injured body.
Masked girl smiled and went back.
Scene 4:
Shruthi returned and slowly removed her dark cloth and mask.
Abhijeet quickly held her hand, "Mujhe bhi takatwar ban na hai, tumhari tarah bolo kya mai takatwar ban sakta hu?"
Shruthi smiled, "Zarur banoge lekin pehle tumhe tez raftaar pakadni hogi"
"Mai kuch bhi karne ke liye taiyyar hu kuch bhi", Abhijeet nodded like a kid .
Anusha smiled and said, "30 minutes mein tumhe uss pahadi ko chad ke vapas aana padega"
Abhijeet looked behind and saw big mountain.
For him , it needs probably three hours..
But she wants to complete within half an hour?
Shruthi smiled and disappeared.
Abhijeet's eyes widened in a shock.
After ten minutes, Anusha gave him small wooden binacular.
"Naa mumkin", he saw Shruthi is standing at the top of the mountain with a smile.
She is not painting at all.
"The devil girl", Abhijeet mumbled.
After ten minutes, she returned with a smile.
"Tum ... tum sach mein insaan nahi ho", Abhijeet almost collapsed in a shock and disbelief.
"3 ghante... agle saat din tak tumhe ye pahad 3 ghante ke andar pahuchna hoga", Shruthi said with a smile.
Abhijeet narrowed his eyes, "Mazaak udaao mat, mai 3 ghante mein vapas aa sakta hu"
"Accha teak hai jaao , tumhara vakt shuru hota hai ab", Shruthi said.
"Here I go", Abhijeet winked at her and started running.
"Ye ek mahine ka training bahut kaam aa raha hai", within 45 minutes he finished 30%.
"Asaan hai, iss ladki ko kya pata ki Maine kitne Mahaan...", before he could say, he realised that this place is slippery.
"Ahhh..nahi nahi...rukoooo", Abhijeet quickly held one small tree for the support.
"Ye jagah kitna geela hai mai fisal gaya toh ?", he looked behind and shocked to see the depth, "Abhijeet kachumbar banjaayega tu, kankaal bhi nahi milega"...
He gulped his saliva and said.
"Arey nahiiiii", suddenly his hands trembled and he left that hold.
Like a big mountain collapsing to the ground, he rolled down and fainted.
"Ye ladka bhi na", Shruthi and Anusha rushed towards him and helped him.
After few hours, Abhijeet slowly opened his eyes.
That mountain appearing around his brain...
"Aaahhh Mera sarrr", Abhijeet held his head and hissed in pain.
"Tum teak ho?" , Shruthi asked with a smile.
"Huh... ye ghaav kuch bhi nahi hai mai almost mountain chad gaya ta", Abhijeet said with a fake smile.
"Ha dekha hai kitna chad gaya ta tumhe", Shruthi smiled.
"Kya matlab? Mazaak mat karo , mai itna durbal nahi hu samjhi", Abhijeet glared at her.
"Chal nikal, tum se nahi honewala", Shruthi rolled her eyes.
"Ego touch mat karo, agar kiya toh tumhara khair nahi. Hum Himalaya parwat ko bhi paar kar chuke hai toh ye chota sa parwat kya cheese hai", Abhijeet laughed .
"Himalaya Parwat? Kabhi dekha hai sapne mein bhi? Paar kar chuke hai bade aaya bolnewala , chalo pehle ye chota sa parwat paar karo", Shruthi said and applied medicine to his injured hands and legs.
His neck also slightly injured.
"Mai ek din tumhe harake...aahhhh kuch nahi sorryyyy", Abhijeet stopped when she pressed the wound again, "Dhayan".
"Kal phir se try karo" Shruthi said and went from there.
Abhijeet smiled at her back and nodded, "Stone outside, flower inside, aahhhh nahi nahi nahi"
He saw Shruthi throw mud vessel towards him.
Next day, Abhijeet tried but once again at the same time and place he rolled back and fainted.
The injury worsened a little but he didn't give up.
He ignored his injury and once again started.
After six days, he crossed that dangerous slippery place.
But it took six hours just to reach the tip of the mountain.
But he was extremely happy.
He looked around and shouted, "Woohoooooo"
"I did it"...
He shouted and his shout heard three times.
"Wooooooo", he shouted again.
He started at 11 'o' clock and it was almost 5 evening now.
Suddenly one figure appeared behind him.
"Aaahhh dhayan tum", he was almost fell down.
"Tumhare liye khana kaayi hu", she coldly said and sat down.
He looked around and saw there is small hut , "Tumne mere liye ye sab Kiya hai thank you"
Shruthi laughed, "Ha ha, zyada hava mein udo mat, bachpan se yaha aati gayi hu mai , ye bahut purana hai bas lakdi naye daali hai maine"
Abhijeet asked, "Kya tum sach mein 15 saal ki bacchi ho?"
"Aisa kyun puch rahe ho?", Shruthi asked.
"Kuch nahi, itna sab kuch ek takatwar yodha bhi nahi kar sakta isiliye ", Abhijeet smiled and appreciated her.
"Tum na kabhi kabhi cute lagte ho", she smiled.
"Kabhi kabhi? hey I am always so cuteeee", Abhijeet winked at her.
"Apna shakal aayne mein dekh pehle, cute always huh", she rolled her eyes.
"Shukriya tumhara, mai bahut vakt baad itna khush hu", Abhijeet thanked her.
"Kya pehle tum itna khush te?", Shruthi peeled the fruit and forwarded to him.
"Ha Mai khush ta bahut lekin mere log Khushi nahi te, mai bahut tang karta ta unhe", Abhijeet smiled, "Bahut ghamandi ta paisonka bhoot savaar ta mere uper "
"Oh...chodo beete baate, ab bolo kaisa lag raha hai 3 ghante ka distance 6 ghante mein khatam karkeeee?", Shruthi glared at him.
"Arey toda ta appreciation toh bantaa hai na madam, apun ka pehli baar hai ye", Abhijeet pouted.
"Huh... Aisa raha toh 6 saal kya agle 60 saal mein bhi tum takatwar nahi ban paaoge Abhijeet", Shruthi said.
"Nahi, nahi mujhe jaldi takatwar hona hai, ab sirf 5 saal 9 mahina aur 17 din hai mere paas", Abhijeet quickly said.
Shruthi smiled, "Lagta hai Purvi lucky hai"
"Mai bahut lucky hu , voh kaun hai pata hai?", Abhijeet asked.
"Pure duniya ko pata hai ki voh Bhagwan ki Shakti hai", Shruthi smiled.
"Mai bhi kitna bewakoof hu, mujhe yaad rakhna chahiye ta", Abhijeet laughed.
Shruthi smiled too.
After the food, Abhijeet went to sleep as he felt tired.
He quickly drifted into deep sleep.
"Ye kya kar rahi ho Purvi? Subah subah training?", Abhijeet saw Purvi is practicing with her Chakra sword that too in the morning.
I mean it's already 11 'o' clock but for Abhijeet it is early morning.
"Subah? Jeetu, 11 baj chuka hai yaar, tum jaldi uthna seekho na", Purvi didn't stop her training but said.
"Mujhe bhook lagi hai ", Abhijeet pouted, "hey voh aam laake do mujhe"
"Bas itna hi" Purvi waved her sword and magical energy rushed towards the mango tree and three mangoes fell down.
"Yeeyyyyy, my darling Purviii", Abhijeet as usual kissed her cheeks and rushed to pick up those mangoes..
"Huh...huh...huh", Abhijeet suddenly sit straight and wiped the sweat.
"Ye bas ek sapna ta, shit", he realised he saw Purvi in his dream only.
Its not real, sad!.
He looked out and shocked, "Purvi!!!!"
He saw Purvi is practicing with her Chakra sword.
He rubbed his eyes and pinched himself to check but it's real.
"Purviiii, tum tum mere liye yaha aagayi?", he rushed towards her and hugged her tightly..
"Mujhe bahut dar lag raha ta Purvi, mujhe laga tum kabhi nahi aaogi lekin dekho mera pyaar sach hai dekho", Abhieet cried loudly and hugged her tightly.
Purvi was stunned, "Ye tum kyaa..."
She was trembled and her hands started to tremble too.
"I love you yaar, mai ab chota baccha nahi raha mujhe zindagi kya hai pata chalne laga hai mujhe sach mein pyaar ka matlab pata chal chuka hai mai tumhare liye sahi ladka ban ne..."
Suddenly that girl controlled her emotions and pushed him away and started beating him with her hands.
"Besharam, nalayak,nikamma ek bacchi hu mai... Mujhe I love you bolte huye sharam nahi aati? Aaj zinda nahi chodungi tumhe", she shouted.
"Aahh... Purvi, Purvi maar kyun rahi ho mujhe? Aaahhh arey mai tumhara Abhijeet hu yaar", Abhijeet shouted and tried to defend himself.
"Mera Abhijeet? Chal hat kameene", she shouted and dragged him towards the edge of the mountain.
"Mai kaun hu dekh teak se", she shouted.
"Haaa Shruthi? Tum yaha kya kar rahi ho? Meri Purvi kaha hai?", Abhijeet glared at her.
"Mai yaha kya kar rahi hu? Chod dungi tumhe", Shruthi glared at her.
"Yaar chod do, nahi toh tum mujhe phir se maaregi", Abhijeet was happy.
"Accha ji, Zara neeche dekhiye ", Shruthi smiled.
"Ha kya...nahi nahi nahi", Abhijeet quickly closed his eyes and shivered.
He felt dizziness when he saw the depth from the mountain, "Shruthi ji, pyaare ..."
"Pyaare? Sach mein chod dungi", Shruthi glared.
"Arey behen", Abhijeet said
"Behen? Abey kya bak raha hai? Mai tumhari behen nahi hu", She loosened her hold.
"Nahi nahi nahi, Shruthi tum tum Mera dost ho na chod do gareeb aadmi hu please ", Abhijeet almost begged.
Shruthi took a deep breath and throw him away.
Abhijeet sighed in relief, "Jaan bach gayi".
He looked around and didn't find Purvi which shocked him to the core, "Maine abi abi Purvi ko dekha ta sach mein".
"Kya bola?", Shruthi asked.
"Shruthi, tum sach mein tum hi hona?" Abhijeet rubbed his eyes and asked.
"Abey dimaag kharaab hai kya? Mai mai hi hu matlab kya hai?", Shruthi narrowed her eyes.
"Matlab mujhe laga tum Purvi...", he stopped seeing her deadly glare.
"Ek kaam karo, yaha se kood jaao , Purvi mil jaayegi tumhe" Shruthi said.
"Itna bhi pagal nahi hu pyaar mein, chal nikal ", Abhijeet said .
"Marnaa hai kya?", she narrowed her eyes.
"Chup...ek dum chup Abhijeet, ahhhh", Abhijeet placed his finger on his lips .
Shruthi smiled a little.
"Tum has rahi ho", he said.
"Nahi, nahi toh", Shruthi glared at him.
"Nahi Maine dekha", Abhijeet said, "Kasam se Bhai"
"Teri toh, maine kaha na nahi" Shruthi rushed towards him.
He ran away while she followed to catch him.
Anusha who watched them from below sighed and throw her binacular away, "Ye ladki aakhir hai kaun? Aur Abhijeet se iska kya talluk?"
She still remember the first time Shruthi appeared in her place.
It was six months ago.
Out of pity, Anusha agreed to help her.
From that moment, Anusha's life changed.
She started to get daily food and and her income slowly started to increase.
This little girl is an exceptional hunter.
Why? How?
Anusha never asked these questions.
But after Abhijeet's arrival, this rough and tough girl changed a lot.
she learned to laugh, blush, smile.
So what's the relation between them?
Or its nothing but teenage effect?
Abhijeet and Shruthi both tired and fell down beside each other.
"tum mere dost ho hai na?", Abhijeet asked and forwarded one fruit.
"Bilkul nahi", Shruthi denied but took that fruit anyway.
Both looked at the sky and started to count the stars as it's already night.
Both smiled unknown to others.
Abhijeet imagined Purvi 's face and then his parents.
His eyes slightly welled up but he controlled his emotions.
"Jaldi vapas aaunga mai"

"Ha ha, Abhijeet tu jald hi marega", both laughed.
Fallen angel looked at Abhijeet's photo and disappeared.
Scene 3:
Abhijeet is practicing the sword.
Shruthi taught him basic moves.
He already learned 80% of them.
Swoosh!
"Shruthi tum aa...", he stopped, "Kaun ho tum?"
Black clothed woman none other than fallen angel.
"Tumhara maut", Fallen Angel rushed towards him.
"Dream on", Abhijeet waved his sword.
CLANG!
Both sword and her dagger clashed but Abhijeet felt sharp pain in his hands and he pushed back.
"So strong!!", he waved and charges again.
"Bullshit, you are nothing in front of me", fallen angel laughed in disdain and easily cut off his sword and slashed hard on his chest.
There is three inches deep cut on his chest as he fell back and collapsed on the hut.
"Aahhhh", he was horrified to see fallen angel already standing in front of him.
"Die punk!!", she laughed ad smashed her knife.
"I am sorry Purvi, maa papa, I... failed", Abhijeet closed his eyes.
Swooshhh!
Being a strong Assassin, she felt extreme danger.
she suddenly turned her left and blocked the attack but ended up taking continuous seven steps.
She was more shocked to see one small leaf pushed her back along with her dagger.
"What a terrifying ability! saamne aao kaun hai vaha?", she shouted.
