Akshay being upset with his friends was moving alone in the fair...and was murmuring...in mind as if questioning himself...
Akshay : humme sab balok kehke parihas q karte hai???aur vo aisa kaunsi vastu hai jo hamein gyat nhi hai jiske karan main apne hi mitron k sammukh uphas ka patra banein reh jata hun...main chaturdas varsh ka ho chuka hun aur sab mujhse ek shishu k vati acharan q karte hai??
he was walking unmindfully...so he didn't see what was happening in front of him..only became concious after his feet touched something unusual...he looked at that thing and got shocked ..because it was not any unconscious thing on his feet but was a small crying girl...
the girl was not more than 8 years old..and dressed like a slave ..she was taking deep breath and looking back again and again as if someone is chasing her ...Akshay became dumb for a while but he could understand that the girl is frightened and she must be any danger...Akshay looks around and sees everyone is busy and none is watching them...he quickly helped the girl to stand up...
Akshay : balikey kaun ho tum .kya tumhe kisine tumhara tiraskar kiya hai??tum itna ro q rahe ho balikye??
the girl looked at Akshay but didn't answer rather continued crying...Akshay felt helpless but didn't loose hope..for the first time he has got opportunity to show elderly responsibility...
Akshay : are balikey shant ho jao...yadi tum tumhari samasya kahogi nhi to hum tumhare sahayata kaise kar payenge...
and suddenly the girl looked back and got frightened and hided behind Akshay ...Akshay looked forward and saw two middle aged men are running towards them...the two mans were looking too powerful...and they were coming to their direction...those men were dressed as if bodyguards of any rich man...one of the man got to see the girl and came towards them
Bodyguard : aye ladki bhag kar yahan a gayi..chupchap chal nhi to ghasitte hue le jayenge...
Akshay saw the girl is shivering out of fear...the other bodyguard looked towards Akshay..
Bodyguard2 : aye ladke tu khada khada kya dekh raha hai..chal bhag yahanse nhi to tere ye bade bade do ankhein hai na vo nikal lenge...
Akshay understood that he can't fight alone with these two powerful men..nor can help the girl ..suddenly some trick taught in gurukul struck his brain
Akshay (screaming) : yuvraj ki jai ho..yuvraj ki jai ho...
and for a moment those guards became unmindful and Akshay lifted two handfuls of soils and throw on their eyes and without wasting time started running holding the girl's hand..the guards also followed them ..the fair was quite far from the place ..so there was not much people to watch them.
Akshay (in mind) : hey iswar is samashya se udhar kaise paya jaye??is choti si bachhi ko bhi to nhi chor sakta...hey iswar sahayata karo...
.the guards might caught them unless Akshay could hear his name somewhere
Akshay : ishwar ko dhanyabad hum banch gaye (to the girl) ..balikey daro mat..vo dekho hamare mitro hamare sahayata k liye pohuch gaye...
and then Aditya,Sukant,Airavat,Shashank and Ghanghor entered...
Sukant : are Akshay tum yahan ho??aur hum tumhe kahan kahan dhund rahe hai Chandu to chintit ho gaye...
Airavat : are ye choti si kanya kaun hai???
Akshay : are ye sab baad mein puchna pehle in yamduton se to hamara picha churwao...
Shashank : yamdut kaan??
and then those guards reach there...
guards : dust balak tune hamare ankhon mein dhul jhokne k himmat kaise kiya ..tujhe abhi iska dand milega .
Aditya : to yahi hai vo yamdut...to ye yahan kya kar rahe hai..inka sthan to yampuri hai...
Guards : kya itna bada duhsahas...aj tum sab log maroge
and they attacked the boys ..and boys were prepared for that...and in few minutes..those two guards were seen to run away with heavy injuries...
the boys started laughing and then Chandragupt and Dakshita came there finding the friends...and got surprised to find them including Akshay are laughing loudly..
Durdhara : ye dekho..hum yahan unmadon k tarah sabko dhund rahe hai aur sab hasya parihas mein vyast hai..aur dekho ye balak Akshay bhi yehin hai...aur tum itna chintint ho rahe ho iske liye
Chandragupt (impatiently) koi hamein bhi kehne k kasht karega k yahan hua kya hai??
the girl who was crying till now with Chandu's voice turned back and stopped crying ..and rolled her eyes with disbelief and then ran and hugged him screaming chandu bhaiyaaa...
none was prepared for that situation nor even Chandragupt..so everyone stopped 4 a while...and then Chandragupt looked at the girl...and as if from his inner soul words came out..Maya behna tu jeevit hai...
the girl was Chandragupt's cousin..while living in pippalivan chandragupt's maternal uncle married a vanvasi girl like some other disguised kshatriya...Maya was his only child...she lost her mother during birth..so Moora raised her with Chandu...and when Dhananand fired pippalivan then Chandragupt's mama died and maya was missing..he thought she also died in that fire ..but after 3 years he got back his sister...
In The Palace
Durdhara is being prepared for the fair..and Kalyani came to meet her...though while changing none is allowed to enter without permission except Subhadra but Kalyani in this meanwhile became very close friend of Durdhara..so she was allowed to enter...
Kalyani : are Durdhara tum akelehi tayar ho rahe ho??Subhadra aur Dakshita kahan hai??aur baki dasiya??
Durdhara : sab hi utsav mein ansh lene gaye hai...parantu tum kyun nhi gaye??
Kalyani : vo maine shubah hi baht kuch dekh liye the .isi karan abhi man nhi ho raha hai..aur phir sandhya kal mein nritya geet pratiyogita mein bhi bhag lena hai..
Durdhara : han tumhare nritya ki prashansha to magadh se kamboj tak bistrit hai...
Kalyani : han jaise tumhari chitrakala ki ..parantu tum aise kaise prastut ho rahe ho?? aur tum aswasth bodh kar rahe the to tumhara prasad se bahar jana uchit hoga??maharani to keh rahe the k aj aap prasad se bahar nahin jayenge...
Durdhara : hum jante hai Kalyani..hum shrant the aswastha nhi...aur hamein bhi to prasad k bahar jane k man hota hai...bahar pure rajdhani utsav mana rahe hai hamare bhrata k yuvraj banne ki khushi mein..aur hum mahal mein bandi rahein?/..kadapi nahin...
Kalyani : isi karan ye chadmavesh...
Durdhara : aur koi upay hi to nhi hai panchnad kumari...parantu kya tum ek upkar karogi mujhpar...
Kalyani : kambojkumari..saheliyon se upkar nhi mangte ..adhikar jataya jate hai..kaho tumhare liye kya kar sakti hun main...
Durdhara : tum ye baat kisise nhi kahogi...
Kalyani : ye bhi koi puchne ki bat hai..aur kuch
Durdhara : han mere wapas ane tak yahin rehna take koi aye to unhe lage k Durdhara kaksha mein hi hai...
Kalyani : acha thik hai rajkumari..aapke agya sirodharya...
Durdhara : bas bas ab parihas mat karo..
and she hugged Kalyani and exited by a secret door only Subhadra and Dhara knew of which...
In The Fair
..after recovering from the sudden shock Chandragupt made Maya relax..Dakshita gave her water to drink..and after a while Maya became a bit normal..Chandu and his friends were being curious to know Maya's story..
Chandragupt : Maya kuch bolo bhi...kya hua tumhare sath aur vo log kaun the jo tumhe pakadne aye the???
Maya's eyes became watery again
Akshay : lagta hai balika abhi bhi dari hui hai...
Dakshita : balika!! ..Akshay tum aise baat kar rahe ho jaise vo tumhare douhitri hai...
Akshay got offended...
Chandragupt : Dakshita aise baat mat karo..aj Akshay ki upasthit budhi ne hi mujhe mere behn se milaya..hum uske avari hai..
Aditya : han manna hi padega Akshay ab bada ho raha hai...
Akshay : tum sab phirse suru ho gaye...and he made his face
and Maya smiled to see that
Chandragupt : iswar ka dhanayabad k vo hamare behn ko muskurahat lauta diya...ab to kaho Maya tum yahan kaise aye??
Maya : bhaiya jab maharaj Dhananand k sena ne pippalivan mein aag lagaye the tab hum hamari saheliyon k sath khel rahe the...hum apne ghar ko jalte dekh usi disha mein bhage parantu usse pehle hi ek sena ne hamein pakad liya..aur mujhe mere saheliyon k sath magadh k darbar mein pesh kiya gaya...maharaj ne mujhe aur mere kuch saheliyon ko ek das byabsayi k hathon bech diya...phir in 3 varsh hum ek shresthi k ghar dasi banke rehti thi..uhan humein thik se ahar nhi milte the...aur hamse ek choti si bhul k liye bhi baht prahar milte the ..ek din hum bhagne k prayas kiya aur pakde gaye ..hamein 3 din bhukhe rakha gaya aur kore se mara gaya..phir shresthi ne dand swarup ham dono ko ek vuavsayi k ko bech diya..jo ganikabritti mein niyukt hai..vo kamboj mein aya tha manoranjan k liye kanyaoko bikray karne..hum aj maoka dekhek bhagne mein safal rahe..parantu Chitra unki kayad mein hai...
Maya's story made Chandragupt's blood boiled...
Chandragupt : Dhanand tere paas ab adhik samay nhi rahe..tere vinas shighrahi anewala hai...
and then suddenly a word uttered by Maya struck on her brain...Chitra...a name which brought him back 3 years back as if it was some other's life...
(holding Maya's shoulder) kya kaha Maya..Chitra...
Maya : han bhaiya wahi Chita jo pippalivan min apke sath khela karti thi..apke liye roj phoolon k har tayar karti thi
Dakshita smiled ..boys except Akshay looked towards eachother
Chandragupt : Maya kya Chitra bhi tumhare sath thi???
Maya : han bhaiya Chitra ko bacha lijiye aap..nhi to vo use bech denge
Digvijay : kitni lajja k baat hai hamare liye..hamare rajya mein aisa anachar ho rahe hai aur hamein iska gyan hi nhi...
Chandragupt : nhi Digvijay ismein tumhara dosh nhi hai..acharya ne kaha hai k bahr sare dash vyavsayi aise kanyao ko apaharan karke vyavsay karte hai apne luv k liye...hamein un kanyao ko bachana padega...
Digvijay : han Maya hamein le chalo uhan...chalo sainikon...
Chandragupt : nhi Digvijay..sainik ko mat bulao..aur tum bhi hamare sath nhi chaloge..tum yuvraj ho..tumhare ane k sambad mein vo log satark ho jayenge...
Digvijay : parantu
Chandragupt : tum chinta mat karo..humein kuch nhi hoga..
Airavat : han Chandu sahi bol raha hai...hum sab uhan chadmavesh mein jayenge...
Dakshita : aur hum bhi chalenge
Shashank : tum??tum uhan kya karoge??
Dakshita : vo tab hi dekh lena..chalo mitro
and everyone followed Maya except Digvijay...
In The Palace
Kalyani in Durdhara's mahal..was waiting for Durdhara..and was getting bored..and to be free from this boredom she started dance practice which she was supposed to do in the evening...
and then one of the pratiharin came and called her assuming her Durdhara
Pratiharin : rajkumari Gandhar Naresh aapse milna chahte hai...
Kalyani's dance practice got interrupted and she got disturbed and annoyed too but at a time got scared thinking that she has to acting as Durdhara now...and in this tension..she didn't pay attention on the fact that with whom she is going to meet is the greatest enemy of her kingdom Ambhik..
Kalyani just shooked her hand which means..u may lave now...am coming...coz her voice could reveal her own identity..
Pratiharin left...
Kalyani quickly got ready and covered her face with white veil and went to the garden where Ambhik was waiting for princess Durdhara
where Ambhik was standing the garden was just under the room of princess...so he could feel someone is dancing in the room...though..he couldn't see her clearly but who else can dance n princess's room other than princess herself??..he got surprised Durdhara is a dancer too...and became restless to meet her..and then Kalyani came...but Ambhik thought it was Durdhara ..as Kalyani was standing with covered face that too keeping her left side to Ambhik
Ambhik : rajkumari Durdhara humein aapse kuch avashyak baat karna hai
Kalyani(in mind) : yadi hum inke baton ka jawab na diye to ye apmanit hoke Abhisar raj se shikayat kar sakte ai..aur yadi baat kare to sachayi samne a sakte hai..ab kya kare??
Ambhik : rajkumari...kya aap jante hai k hamare taraf se aapke liye vivah ka prastav rakha gaya hai aur aapke pita ne bhi apna sammati de diya hai...
Kalyani(in mind) : Durdhara ka vivah??parantu Durdhara ne to aisa kuch nhi kaha..kintu ab main inhe kya jawab dun??
Ambhik : rajkumari apne jawab nhi diya??
Kalyani shooked her head..Ambhik considered as yes
Ambhik : rajkumari aapke pita ne kaha hai ke agle kuch mahine tak aapke kundali mein grahdosh k karan is vishay mein baat age nhi bad sakte..parantu hamne aapko ye spashtrup se kehna uchit samjha ke hamein ana mansamman atyant priya hai...aur ham apse bhi apeksha karenge ke aap hamare samman ka kheyal rakhe jo apeksha ham apke bhrata yuvraj Digvijay se nhi rakh sakte...
Kalyani (in mind) : Durdhara k kundli mein grahdosh???parantu rajpurohit ne to kaha tha k Durdhara k kundali batris k batris sulakshan sampann hai...kahin abhisar raj ne inse mithya to nhi kaha q k vo ye vivah nhi karwana chahte hai????
but she shooked her head again to yes
Ambhik : rajkumari hum jante hai hamare diye hue heerak abhushan aapko pasand nhi aye the..parantu hamein ye apeksha nhi tha k aaap vo kisi aur ko de denge...vo bhi panchnad ki rajkumari ko
Kalyani (in mind) : vo heerak abhushan inka uphar tha????
Ambhik : hamein is baat pr krodh to aya..parantu humein laga k aapko jo uphar nhi chahiye vo aap dan mein de dena uchit samajhte hai..parantu hum asha rakhte hai k age se aap ye dhyan rakhenge k humein ye pasand nhi hai
Kalyani (in mind) : lagta hai ye insan mitrata k mahatya ko nhi samajhte hai..ya phir kisine shikhaya nhi hai...
Ambhik : rajkumari aap baat q nhi kar rahe hai??
Kalyani coughed : aham aham vo main..
Ambhik : acha to apki awaz kharab hai...koi baat nhi..hum aapke liye kuch naya uphar laya hain..umid karte hai k vo aapko pasand aye..
and he offered a beautiful and costly saree
..ye reshmi saree himalay k us taraf chindes k banik se laya gaya hai..samagra viswa mein iske tulya uttam komal aur mulyaban bastra nhi milenge..asha karenge aj sndhyautsav mein ap ye pehenke hamare maan rakhenge..
Kalyani (in mind") : mare gaye...
Ambhik : pasand aya na apko..
Kalyani : aham aham han...
Ambhik : to grahan kijiye rajkumari..
Kalyani had to take it..and while taking her thub touched Ambhik's fingure..and Ambhik got an unusual sense and at once removed his hands...he didn't understand what happened but felt something is wrong...
Kalyani : dhanyabad ...
Ambhik : vo..acha hum chalte hai...
but before he left Kalyani left that place almost running...and her armlets left a sweet sounds
Ambhik : rajkumari mein kuch parivartan dikhai diya..parantu kya??jo bhi ho vo ghungur ki nikkan baht sundar hai
and he left..
Kalyani (reaching in her own room) : bach gaye...parantu ye kaun the??baton se to lagte hai panchnad se inhe kuch samasya hai...parantu jo bhi ho ye vastra baht hi sundar hai..aj sandhya mein hum yehi paridhan karenge...
and she continued her dance reharsal
