Kampilya
The five sons of Pandavas sat in their chamber gazing at the portrait of their parents who left them years ago . Still they feel the emptiness of their presence which no one could fill . Draupadeyas still remember their days in Indraprastha the happy days ! When all the brothers together would play , eat , sleep and what not but now everything seems to be so changed . Their endless talks transformed into silence their smile was replaced by an emotionless face . Everything .... everything changed .
Entering the scene Yadava Princess found her sons . The same upandavas she used to feed with her hands have grown up today ! But something was missing . Yes , it was the spark of their eyes which was now replaced by nothing but dullness .
Putron ... Her voice bare above a whisper as she spoke but still clear enough for her sons to hear .
Shubhi maa ! their lips parted with a gasp of shock as the children looked up finding the sister of Krishna standing a smile playing her lips while a few tears taking birth in eyes .
Stretching her arms Yadavi invited them for an embrace as the grandsons of Drupada ran to her together involving Subhadra in the tightest hug ever possible .
After a few minutes finally breaking the hug she kept her palms over Prativindhya and Shrutkarm ' s cheek while shrutsena along with shatanika adjusted their heads in her lap .My children missed me ? Subhadra questioned ruffling sutsoma ' s hair .
A lot maa they answered in union .
Kokila the wife of Drupada saw this from a distance as a satisfied smile played her lips Krishnaa was righ the princess of Yadavas didn't failed in making upandavas come out of their trance.
Pranam Mahrani acknowledging kokila ' s presence Subhadra got up greeting the queen of Kampilya .
I must say Yadavkanya you have some magic in yourself she praised recieving a little grin from Vrishni who just shook her head .
As we say beauty is in the eyes of beholder the same goes here Mahrani , it's not me who has magic its the way you are seeing me
Kokila was entirely amazed by her answer indeed she is Dwarkadhish' s sister she thought gazing at the princess .

Perplexed by his statement Drupada got up accompanied by his son and Shinkhandini whose faces had the same tension.
Shikhandini - Any idea of who is the boy ?
Messanger - Pardon me princess but it is not even known by Pandavas the only thing that I found their was this locket .
Handing the locket to Drupada the messenger took his leave .
