It's a winter night, Irha and Adnan the two young warriors with their blood stained swords are sitting beside an old cart. Adnan set fire to avoid the cold . Irha was immensed in her deep thoughts, sitting silently, her eyes are wet with tears. Her mind is filled with so many unanswered questions, Who am I ? Why am I here ? How I became so ruthless? What is the reason of my existence? I am killing the culprits without any mercy, the bandits, ran away on one sight of ours.
Adnan looked at her and asked ",what are you thinking? why are you always silent? I know you from last seven years you hardly smile and rarely talk. If you have any problem, you can always share with me, Irha, after all I'm like your big brother and best friend.
We learnt everything from our master together from childhood and lived like real siblings . Why are you always in deep thoughts I feel like some burden is hidden deep in your heart you never told me anything about yourself.
I remember that day ,when my father brought you home, you were just 9 years old ,you were very scared and silent, father said, he saved you from the assassins and brought home, he always protected you and loved like his own daughter. He never told anything about you more than this, and I never asked him, because I thought that he would tell me when the time is right.
Irha took a long breathe... and stayed silent. Her eyes were wet and the tears were falling from her cheeks.
Adnan said disappointedly ,"Ok..fine! if you don't want then don't tell, I will never ask you again, please don't be sad, whenever you need me I'm always here for you as your protector and big brother."
After a short silence Irha said, "One day a little girl was sleeping with her mom, and suddenly when she woke up she found nobody around, she was scared and searched for her mom every where in the house, when she came outside screaming and asking for her mom.
One of the passerby uncle said, what happened little girl why are you crying? she said..my mom, I want my mom and started crying..
He said don't cry little one, mom will come soon,she might have gone to bring grocery, and he carried her to her elder sister's weapon store as he knew her.
"Hello ,Is there anyone here ? "he asked, from outside the store."
Yes ,who is there?" Iqra came out, and surprised on seeing her sister with someone else. "What happened,"?she asked.
The man replied, about what happened and left the little girl to her sister.
Iqra, her elder sister held her hand and said," Oh ! darling don't worry mom will come soon and prepare tasty snacks for you. Did you eat anything? have some bread and milk, I will bring it for you, ok! and cheer up don't cry!".
She went to the grocery store next to their store and brought some cake and bread with a milk bottle. The little girl felt happy and relaxed on seeing her elder sister, and ate the breakfast.
After finishing her work Iqra promised her that both of them will go to home to see mom. After few hours of her work she took her sister home .
When they reached home, the little girl ran inside shouting.. mom! mom.. where are you?
"Irhaaa..." a painful voice came from inside ,the little girl rushed inside to see her mom, suddenly she screamed loudly," mom!...what happened to you?"
Iqra rushed inside , after hearing the noise to see what happened inside. She was a warrior and always in ready to fight position with her sword on her waist .She was specially trained by her father as he was a general. When she came inside she was shocked, to see her mom injured badly and Irha was crying holding her mother.
She asked her mom ,"Who did this to you mom?".
Mother was unable to talk much, she said, "take Irha with you and run away and hide somewhere, don't worry about me, go..protect Irha and yourself, the assassins are searching for her go... please, dear leave me."
No mom"I can't leave you alone". said Iqra ." I asked my brother to bring the doctor I will be fine you go" mom said.
And suddenly noise of the horses came from outside,Iqra held her sister and ran out from the other door. But one of the assassins saw her running and attacked.
Iqra fought back bravely with her sword to protect her sister when she was busy in fighting, a woman in mask grabbed her sister ,mom shouted ! " stop ! leave my daughter alone." Iqra ran towards the woman in the mask to protect Irha and fought against her but she couldn't protect Irha as she got attacked by the assassins from behind and got injured badly.
Though she tried hard to stop the masked woman she couldn't stop her. She kidnapped the little girl and ran away. The injured mom and daughter were shouting helplessly. It was the General 's house and family which got attacked by the assassins !
Hmm..a long breath... weeping sounds,...Irha could not control her tears,.
"Irha calm down , don't cry I am sorry I insisted you to tell the story, I am very sorry , I made you cry.. I am very sorry little sister, please forgive me," said Adnan in a sad voice.
After a while...she some how controlled her tears, and said "big brother don't blame yourself, for everything ,that was my fate which separated me from my family and especially my mom at a younger age of 7 years .My elder sister who always protected me, she was a warrior in a very young age of 16 years, father trained her to deal with all types of weapons and withstand all the difficulties.
Adnan interrupted ... "why did the assassins attack your family?". "I don't know why? but they tried to kidnap me" said Irha. "What happened next? Who was the masked woman, who carried you? Where did she keep you?" Adnan asked curiously.
Irha heard some noises from the bushes, before she could say something. "Adnan watch out" ! she shouted.
They were attacked by the bandits, again ,they both fought bravely and made them run away from there. These two warriors are always guarding the tribes. There were frequent attacks from the bandits, so to protect the people from the bandits these warriors are guarding every time.
Adnan's father was a leader of several tribes, and also a great master of warriors. He trained all the youngsters who are talented as great warriors.These young warriors are guarding the borders of these tribes in groups. Adnan will be the next leader. Adnan promised his father that he will always protect the tribes with his life, and he will never leave Irha alone.
When they were young, Irha was attacked by the assassins many times, Adnan's father protected her and decided to flee from there old place and setteled in another place for Irha's safety. He was so much worried about her so to keep the promise given to his brother, the general. He left there and started a new life to hide their identities.
Abraham was a great warrior and an important man to the king he was general's brother and a very good friend of the king.
He formed new tribes, and trained the talented and energetic youngsters to protect the people.
There were some people who were against him they never followed his rules and always created problems for the people. They got separated and became bandits. They started killing people for small reasons, they robbed the people for money and jewelry also mistreated women. All the people there got panicked and asked him for help. Being a leader he decided to protect the people from those bandits so he trained the youngsters to form warriors and created a huge army who are always guarding the borders in shifts.
Adnan and Irha were leading this army. This time also they were in a mission to chase away the bandits, who were frequently attacking them.
