"Maybe you're right. Maybe there is no other name for this feeling than Love.." Rishi said.
"Really? Finally!! Who's the girl? When did you lose your heart to her? " Raj asked.
"You know her and I didn't realise it's not with me until now." Rishi answered.
"God! Isn't this a big news. And what do you mean I know her?" Raj asked excitedly.
"You remember when we talked about someone from Lotus Kingdom?" Rishi said and sat on his bed.
"At lunch in Neeru's town..? Yes.. It's about the Devil.." Raj said slowly and stared into his eyes.
Rishi didn't blink an eye and Raj understood.
"You are in love with Devil beauty! Good Heavens!!" Raj exclaimed.
"Guess that's what I am telling you..," Rishi said.
"So.. That makes me the brother in law to the great Devil Beauty. Unbelievable! Yayy!!" Raj jumped with excitement.
'He never felt this happy for me before even with my greatest achievements. Now look at him, is this all for him becoming a brother-in-law to her??' Rishi thought to himself.
"Hey will you first calm down and listen to me?" Rishi asked with a frown.
"How can you expect to be calm? Wait, let me tell mother and father" Raj said and started walking towards the door.
"Wait. First listen to me!" Rishi stopped him.
Raj stops sensing the seriousness in his tone. "What do you think about Cosmos Prince?" Rishi asked suddenly.
"Well.. He is a good and talented person who is also a.."
"Ashmita asked me about him," Rishi interrupted.
"Ah.. He is a good for nothing prince. He is such a wasteland he doesn't know anything. He is a womanizer." Raj said seriously.
Rishi smiled inwardly and praised, 'Brother is too good.'
"Ahem.. Yes I thought so too and that is the information I sent to Devil Beauty" Rishi said.
"Good. Like I taught you, that is how you need to act clever," Raj playfully mocks him.
"Brother don't wait. Just go and inform our parents about this before my sister-in-law gets stolen by someone else. Hurry up!" Raj urged and dragged Rishi with him.
'Sister in law. Sounds good..!' Rishi thought to himself and followed Raj.
When they both came out of the room one of the elite soldiers greeted them.
"Greetings Your Royal Highness and Minister Raj," Soldier said politely.
Both of them nodded and Raj asked, "What is the matter?"
"What happened?" Rishi asked sternly.
"The witch got her consciousness, Your Highness" the soldier informed.
Rishi and Raj's faces darkened and they both started walking to the Prison headquarters.
Meanwhile in the Lotus Kingdom..
Ashmita came back from a training session with fellow members and was going to her room. Then she spotted Maira alone in the garden and went to her. Maira seems to be thinking about something.
"Sister?" Ashmita called.
"Ashmita. Is your training session over?" Maira asked.
"Yes sister. Our people have great potential and you know? They improved very well in just a few days," Ashmita said.
"'Nice to hear that because we need to be as strong and wise as possible," Maira said.
Ashmita nodded and asked, "Sis, you seem to be worried about something. What happened?"
Maira sighed and said, "I sent a message to Abhi but haven't received anything back from him."
Ashmita noticed distress in her sister's eyes and hugged her to comfort. Ashmita pats gently on her back.
"Sis, don't worry. Abhi might've caught up in some other work, also his mother's health is not better right. So don't worry about anything," Ashmita says slowly.
Maira nodded her head and smiled.
In no time a pigeon came and sat on Maira's shoulder. Maira's eyes beamed with joy looking at the pigeon. She sent a message and informed the pigeon to get a reply as well.
Maira took the letter, tied up to the pigeon's leg and blew a kiss to the pigeon. It flew away.
"So Sis. You finally got the message, so read it to your heart content. I will go and fresh up" Ashmita said with a smile and left the place.
Maira's heart bloomed with joy and she opened the small piece of paper and looked at it.
"There are so many things hidden to the naked eye. Magic is the only way," was written on the piece of paper.
"Magic??" Maira thought for sometime.
Suddenly she got an idea and rushed to the table in her room and placed a cloth on it.
She closed her eyes and concentrated her power of magic at her eyes. After a few moments, she slowly opened them and looked at the paper.
In an instant the paper became enlarged and the real message started appearing.
"Maira. Hope you are doing good. I am fine here, so is everything. The master came to my place and treated mother. She is safe and doing well now.
Master assigned a mission for me, so I need to go away for a few days. This mission is important, Maira and is related to us. So I'm expecting to succeed whatever it takes.
Also, there are some things going on in the Rose Kingdom. There is a talk that Surya is awakening the Black Army. So be careful."
"Black Army?" Maira's eyes widened and continued studying.
"But don't worry. Master said that taking down Jasmine is the best strategy and us joining with its army can make this Balck Army bite the dust. So just continue to be brave and strong.
Take good care of you. Don't skip meals and be healthy.
Maira.. Miss You so much. Hope we will meet soon."
'I Miss you too Abhi..' Maira's eyes brimmed with water.
"MAIRA.. Time has come. Start the war."
