Chapter 19- A prisoner and marriage
In Kuntal
The attack of Pindaris was successfully repelled. In the entire fight, Kumar Verma had found himself. He had become the warrior from the coward that he was. Devsena had learnt how to three arrows at the same time from the bull-minded man. Everyone was just in awe of the tactics used by the man. They were just curious as to who was this person.
The mysterious person came from water by standing on a log and stood in front of Kumar Verma.
Kumar- (feeling a bit ashamed) I didn't know who you are, na jane kya kya bol diya. I also kicked you.
Amar- When you kicked me, then I realized your power. (Touching the cut on the hand of Kumar and feeling it on his palm) This is not blood, friend, but Vijay Tilak which shows that you are not coward but a warrior.
He spreads his hands out and Kumar hugs him. After sometime, he goes and stands on front of Jaya Verma and Shanti Priya.
Jaya Verma- We didn't know about this incoming problem, you saved us by becoming like a god. Who are you? Where did you come from?
Kattapa- Forget about knowing who we are, now only you can help us, that's why we came here.
Jaya Verma- Itne bade Mahaveer ki hum kya sahayata kar sakte hai?
Kattapa- Ji, aapke Rajya ki ek Sundari par yeh mohit ho gaya hai.
Jaya Verma and Shanti Priya both are surprised.
Shanti- What? Who is that girl who has this good luck?
Kattapa- ji, woh... Your princess.
Both of them get happy.
Jaya Verma- This is such a good news.
Suddenly a messenger pigieon comes and sits on Amar's shoulder. He takes the message tied on the pigeons leg and reads it. He becomes a bit shocked after reading the message.
Devsena- (smiling)What is message, Veer?
Amar- Woh...
Devsena- What is it?
Amar- It is order from Rajmata Sivagammi to make you a prisoner.
Everyone gets shocked. The smile gets wiped off Devsena's face. She gets a bit teary eyed.
Devsena- (whispers) Betrayal...
Amar-Rajkumari...
Devsena draws her sword out and puts it on his chest.
Devsena- By protecting us from our enemies, you became our god. In the next second, you came to make me a prisoner. (In Firm Voice) Who are you?
Amar- (smiles) The sweet talks told in anger, feel bitter Princess.
Densena- (in anger) Please answer the question which I asked. Who are you?
Amar- When your anger cools down then I will tell you.
Devsena takes mashal and hits it on Bahubali's chest. Thee clothes burn away to reveal armour with the symbol of Mahishmati on it.
Kattapa- The going to be King of Mahishmati, The dear son of Rajmata Sivagammi Devi, Bhayabhit tha sansar jisse, uske sangharak, Veeron ke Veer, AMARENDRA BAHUBALI!
Everyone bows down to him except Devsena, Amar goes and picks up Jaya Verma and Shanti Priya.
Amar- Samabandhi ek dusre ke gale lagte hai Maharaj, unke saamne jhukte nahi hai.
Amar gestures everyone to get up.
Jaya Verma- so Rajmata sent the marriage proposal for this Mahaveer?
Kattapa- Yes, Maharaj. Bahubali loves the princess, this information Rajmata did not know. When you refused her, she asked to make you a prisoner.
Amar- My mother can never make a mistake, Devsena. Whatever she does, there is a reason behind it. This is just a misunderstanding, not revenge. Come with me as a prisoner.
Devsena- You are the winner of my mind. If you make me your servant even, then till death I will go with you. But losing my self-respect and going as prisoner is impossible for me.
Amar- (determined) From this moment on till death separates us, I am all yours Devsena. (Lowers his head) The Dharm which I have been taught by my mother, taking that as Witness, I give you the vow that I will not let any harm come on your pride and Dignity. Please give your hand.
Devsena puts her hand forward, and Amar keeps his hand on hers. Everyone becomes happy. Kattapa smiles looking at the entire scene.
Morning
In Kuntal
Everyone bids tearful farewell to Devsena. Amar, Densena and Kattapa start their journey towards Mahishmati on the boat of Kuntal.
In Mahishmati
In Royal Court,
Everyone was discussing political affairs.
Guard- The King of the glorious Kingdom, Prayagirajyam, Jagatnath Dev Rayan is coming along with heir, Akanksh Chandra Rayan.
Everyone stands up and greets them. Sivagammi comes down from the throne which she was sitting in and greets him. Ayanika and Bhalladeva come and stand behind them. Ayanika and Akanksh look at eachother and smile. This is noticed by Bhalla.
Sivagammi- Welcome to this illustrious kingdom of Mahishmati, Jagatnath ji. But why did you come over here that too unannounced?
Jagat- For Someshwar Mahadev Rudra Abhishiek on Sunday. I wanted to invite you to the yagya that I am going to hold for betterment of my Kingdom.
Sivagammi- Thank you for the invite but I don't think I will be able to come as I got the news that Amarendra will be arriving during the afternoon from Kuntal.
Jagat- Right, he is returning from VijayPath Yatra. But you can send someone as the representative right?
Sivagammi- Yeah, Bhalladeva will be the representative from my side. Do you agree with me Bhalladeva?
Bhalla-(smiles) yes Rajmata, I would love to go but I have heard that in the yagya female participation is required?
Akanksh- Yes it is required as we are worshipping Goddess Adi-Shakti in form of Ma Someshwari.
Bhalla- So, I feel Ayanika is better suited then me because she looks as if she is a pert of Goddess Adi-Shakti herself and will also the contribute to the yagya. In that way, the fruits of the yagya, Mahishmati will also reap.
Ayanika- But...
Sivagammi- I also agree with your point of view Bhalladeva. So, Ayanika will you go to the Yagya instead?
Ayanika- (bows down) As you say Rajmata.
Sivagammi- Where are you staying right now, Maharaj Jagatnath?
Jagat- In a guesthouse
Sivagammi- please accept the hospitality of Mahishmati household. Come and stay with us in this royal palace.
Jagat- As you say, we will come and stay over here only.
Sivagammi- Ayanika, please show them there.
Ayanika bows and leads the troup to the guestrooms in the palace.
In guestroom,
After leaving Maharaj Jagat in a guest room, she takes Akanksh to the another one which is near to her room. Just as they enter the room, Akanksh pulls her towards himself and hide behind the door. He quickly puts his arms around her waist.
Ayanika- (Surprised) What are you doing? Leave me now, I need to go. If some one sees us like this it will be a big problem.
Akanksh- Let them see. I don't get this chance daily. Now let me enjoy.
Ayanika just smiles. She puts her arms around his neck.
Akanksh- You looked at me deliberately right? So that Bhalla notices it.
Ayanika nods in agreement.
Akanksh- But how did he gets the idea of sending you to the yagya.
Ayanika- Simple, I sent message through the hands of Renuka to Bhalla Bhaiya about the yagya requiring female presence.
Akanksh- So technically Renuka is working for Bhalladeva?
Ayanika- Yes
Akanksh- then how are you able to trust her?
Ayanika- Because I know her from childhood. I only asked her to work for Bhalla Bhaiya.
Akanksh- If she backstabs you in the future?
Ayanika- She will do that if the situation and my plan requires it. If it doesn't, she is more happy to be my eyes in Bhalla bhaiya's room.
Akanksh- I admire your thinking.
Ayanika- By the way, get Kavi married.
Akanksh- Now where did Kavi come from in this conversation?
Ayanika- Because that guy is also in love.
Akanksh- Who?
Ayanika- With Maya.
Akanksh- Now who is this Maya?
Ayanika- My Bestfriend Renuka's sister, Maya Gajapati.
Akanksh- As you say Princess.
He pulls in Ayanika for a hug. After a warm and loving hug, Ayanika leaves the room and goes to her room. She quietly picks up her mother's journal and starts reading the crucial pages that will her in clearing the upcoming misunderstanding.
