KARTHIK went in the direction as instructed by Shilpa's men. He moved with utmost alert and caution.
After a while, he spotted a man taking Shilpa into a prison cell-like room. Kathik then sneaked up to the room and made his special sudden attack. The guard was astonished by the attack.
It took no time for him to recover and give back Karthik a major blow on the head. Though Karthik was seriously injured in his fight with Minister Rao, seeing Shilpa lying on the floor unconscious, made his blood boil.
Now Karthik is losing so much blood. His body started to feel so light and he's about to lose his consciousness. Then suddenly he remembers something.
He used Maira's technique of self healing and quickly gathered his energy. Karthik started attacking violently.
The guard was shocked by the sudden energy. He thought Karthik would fall to the ground in no time but he's giving more severe blows than the one before.
Karthik moved swiftly and stabbed him in the heart. He then looked at Shilpa and walked to her.
He checked her pulse and sighed in relief.
THE hidden guards spotted the cosmos army who were secretly attacking. The mysterious man is swiftly killing everyone in his way.
He is moving with tremendous agility. He's just vanishing into the air and landing attacks from nowhere with ultimate ease. His moves are untraceable and his swordsmanship is impeccable.
The cosmos army is speechless by seeing their man in action. They are just mesmerized by the way he attacks.
In no time the mysterious man finished off all the hidden guards came towards them. He went to their hideout to finish the remaining.
When he reached the ground he saw a guard trying to attack Ashmita. His eyes turned red and everyone sensed bloodlust around him.
In a blink of an eye he is beside Ashmita. The guard is trying to backstab Ashmita while she is busy in fighting. The mysterious man stood in front of him and held his hand that had a knife.
The sudden intrusion startled the attacker for a moment. He kept looking into his eyes with no sign of coming back to his senses. The mysterious man bent the guard's arm and stabbed his own knife in his throat.
Ashmita, after finishing the person she is dealing with, turns back to meet the eyes of a person who is having a cosmos badge.
"Thank you."
The person nodded and his eyes turned gentle. He bent towards Ashmita and whispered, "Be Careful. Feisty.."
Saying that, he turned around and went to deal with the others. Ashmita stood like a statue and looked at the person who is easily taking down the enemies.
She stood there watching him. 'This voice.. Feisty?? Ri.. Rishi?!' Ashmita thought to herself.
"Ashmita. Watch out!" someone shouted and she got back from her stupor and dodged the attack.
SHIVRAJ and his men took down all the hidden guards on their way out. But most of them are seriously injured including Shivraj.
Raghu is holding the enemy leader's neck from behind and stood before Shivraj. There are cuts on his body and blood is dripping.
"Still have the nerve to say something?" Shivraj asked calmly.
"Tsk. What happens even if you kill us? In the end, your death is in the hands of My Majesty only," the leader said haughtily.
Shivraj just smiled and said, "Oh, Don't worry about that. The end is surely near and this time, it's the end of your majesty as well. Promise you'll meet him in hell soon".
Saying that, Shivraj nodded to Raghu. Raghu slit the leader's throat and left him.
"Come. Let's go and meet my daughters." Shivraj stated.
"Our Daughters" Aaradhya corrected Shiv with a stern voice.
"Yes of course! Our daughters, my Queen. Now, shall we go?" Shiv asked.
Aaradhya nodded and started walking outside without waiting for Shiv. Shiv just helplessly shook his head and followed Aaradhya.
Coming out, Aaradhya and Shivraj are welcomed by the dead bodies of the rose kingdom guards. They are shocked and surprised to see the situation.
'As expected of my daughters' Shivraj thought to himself and he felt proud.
Maira and Ashmita's backs are facing their parents. Both, at the same time, are having a mysterious urge to turn back and as they had it, they did it.
Both of them slowly turned back and looked at the people whose eyes were filled with tears.
Everything seemed to be stopped for the four of them. They all rooted in their spots and looked at each other with full of love and sadness. They missed them so much that they can't express it in any words.
The longing of seeing their parents and telling each and everything. The restless nights when they are under training and the lack of warmth when they are suffering from any disease.
In every stage whenever they want their parents they miss them. Their heart and body wants the warmth of their parents but they are far away from them.
Similarly, they want to give best in everything starting from food to studies. They want to pamper them, love them, spoil them, discipline them when they make mistakes. They want to hug them when they cry or feel happy.They want to be their side whenever they need them the most.
They want to give everything they need and make them responsible to their kingdom and people.But they are separated from them. They never get back those days.
Maira and Ashmita dropped their swords to the ground and walked slowly towards their parents. With every step they take their heart beat like crazy. They never saw their parents in real life. They just saw the pictures drawn by raghu and their grandfather.
But seeing them with their own eyes makes them emotional. They just want it to be real, not a dream.
Maira and Ashmita are standing infront of Shivraj and Aaradhya respectively. They just stared at them for a few minutes and hugged them tightly.
Tears silently started flowing from their eyes. They don't want to stop them this time.
