Pragathi Lake was a small body of water about forty miles outside of Hastinapur. The night was beautiful and star-spangled, with a soft, waxing gibbous moon. The stars danced on the water, and the air was filled with the mysterious sounds of a secret world, a microcosm of the universe, where millions of tiny unseen creatures made love and preyed and were preyed upon and died.

Arjun and panchali sat in the chariot pinned with two of the horses,the sky was silent,...
listening to the sounds of the night they started towards the lake.Arjun  watched her, enjoying the nature of night for the first time, sitting behind the wheel of the chariot, his handsome face intense and serious. He had never loved her as much as he loved him at that moment. He wanted to do something wonderful for her, to give her something to let her know how much he cared for her. And suddenly he knew what he was going to do.

"Let's go for a swim, ," He said, stopping the chariot.

"We didn't bring bathing suits,or any clothes. And I am afraid... !! "She said
" What if some one sees and complains to king?? "She continued, fear in her eye...

"It doesn't matter, I know you are so innocent.. I like it.. I am the prince.. Prince Arjun. One of the best warriors. Everyone knows our relationship.
Many don't come here , that too, at this time.. "He pulled her towards the lake..

" No Arya, No.. I don't swim.. I am no better".. Her heart started beating fast.. What is he up to???
