Everything was dark and quiet. The only flicker of light could be seen at a distance in the forest. In a dimly lit room , one could easily discern the figure of a man. He sat with a map spread out in front of him. The look in his eyes was pure hatred , hatred towards the king of his own land- Maharaj Sudarshan Raj Pratap .

Krishna:-

" Krishna , it's quite late now get some rest " , Jay entered my room. He was my dearest friend and second in command. I folded the map of Suratgarh . We , the Bahus , are never going to forget what the Maharaj had done to us years ago. The frightful memories flooded back..."Our plan is forged, we are going to wreck havoc tomorrow. Let the King have a nice sleep tonight " , a smirk played on Jay's lips upon hearing my words.

Ten Years Ago

Tears were streaming down everyone's cheeks. Screams and shouts of grief echoed as we were thrown out of the land. The whole tribe of Bahus. Accused of witchcraft against the kingdom?! Our homes burned and we were thrown into the forest by the guards. My father, leader of the tribe , begged for mercy and an opportunity to prove ourselves. But , the Maharaj...a beast!!

Those moments of inexplicable agony still haunted me. But , I had sworn to avenge the death of each of our men. All debts will be cleared when we take away the Rajkumari , his pride and love.

The night darkened and we gave in to sleep. The tribe was sleeping peacefully. The happiness of my tribe matters and I shall fight for them! It wasn't long before dawn arrived. I woke up first and gradually woke my men. The women , hurriedly preparing food for us . The children were playing around already. The men had ready for the abduction. The rage and motivation in their eyes inspired me more. I geared up for battle.

My thoughts wandered off to the Rajkumari , must be having a beautiful morning. Well, she deserves it before I make her life a living hell.

As the time to leave approached , the women bid us farewell. We stealthily moved towards the Rajmahal . A glance from Jay and I knew that he was all geared up for it . We dispersed into many groups and quietly spread out . We have to hide for a long time before the action starts.

Hours passed by , the Palace became clear against the sky . Grandeur at its peak! Conchsells sounded from every direction , announcing the appearance of Suryadev in the sky. But , they had no idea , how they were going to face destruction today. The Palace had an air of excitement and joy. Oh ! The Rajkumari , was going to make a public appearance. I signalled the news to Jay and we made the necessary changes in our plan.

" Jay , it's time to act. Get our men ready. Make sure the horse is ready and also keep the sedative ready. Gather your weapons! " , I spoke with a deep hint of leadership in my voice. I could feel my heart thumping against the chest.

Slowly , we moved towards the Rajmahal , our eyes menancigly linsgering on the guards. Five men silently knocked them out. Another part of our group quickly slid inside and cleared the path for us. Jay and I slowly entered the secret passage and reached the entrance.
" I'll open the door , be ready! Attack ! " , we barged in with full force. The guards rushed to position. The servants scattered away screaming. We took special care to nor hurt women and children.

As we moved forward, Maharaj appeared with his men. He lunged at me with his swords raised, " You bastards!! How dare you enter my kingdom?! " . A vigorous battle ensued. Almost all the warriors had been taken down , my men watched me fight. My full strength and attention was directed towards him , but enticing voice captured my attention.
