Next day:

Hastinapur:

Duryodhan went to Shakuni's chamber and told him everything he heard from the commoners. Shakuni smirked, already having a plan. But before he could tell Duryodhan about it, a dasi entered the chamber.

"Rajkumar ki jai ho. Rajkumar, Guru Dronacharya ne apne sabhi shishyo'n ko Gurukul bulaya hai.", she told. 

"Thik hai. Tum jaao.", said Duryodhan.

"Mai chalta hoon, mamashri.", Duryodhan bowed and left the chamber.

The same information was conveyed to all the princes, and they all left for gurukul.

.

Gurukul:

All the princes reached Gurukul to find their preceptor, Guru Drona sitting on a raised platform, under the peepal tree.

"Pranipat Gurudev.", they all bowed down in front of their Guru.

"Tum sabka kalyan ho." Dronacharya blessed.

"Aapne humein yahaan kis prayojan se bulaaya hai, gurudev.", asked Yudhishthir.

"Putro'n, tum sabhi ko maine apne sampoorna jeevan kaal ka saara gyan pradaan kar diya. Ab waqt aa gaya hai, ki, tum apne guru ko gurudakshina de, iss hrin se mukt ho jaao.", told Dronacharya.

"Aagya kijiye, Gurudev.", said Yudhishthir.

"Panchal naresh Drupad ko parajit kar mere paas le aao. Mere liye vahi sabse badi dakshina hogi.", told Dronacharya.

Hearing the words of their preceptor, the 105 brothers immediately readied their weapons, and left for Panchal. These extremely strong warriors destroyed Panchal, and captured Drupad along with his advisors, eventually, bringing them to Drona. Seeing Drupad standing in front of him, helpless, Drona said -

"Apne praano'n ki chinta mat karo, Drupad. Ek bramhan ki mahaanta kshama karne mein hi hoti hai. Toh, mai tumhe kshama karta hu, aur punah tumse mitrata karne ki ichchha rakhta hoon. Isliye, mai tumhe tumhara aadha rajya lautaata hoon. Bhagirathi ke dakshin me tum raj karoge aur uttar ka rajya mai sambhalunga, kyuki jaisa ki tumne kaha tha, ek raja ka mitra ek shikshak nahi ho sakta. Atah, Hey Drupad, yadi ye tumhe sweekar ho, toh, aaj se mujhe apna mitra jaano."

Drupad, not having any choice, agreed to the deal proposed by Drona, and returned to his kingdom. He lived in a capital named Kampilya, heartbroken and upset. He was well aware of the fact that he will never be able to vanquish Drona on his own, hence, he decided to wait for the birth of his son. On the other hand, Drona lived in Ahichhatra happily.

.

"Namjoon hyung, aapne Nakul ko kahi'n dekha.", asked Tae.

"Haan, sabhi rajkumar gurukul gaye hain. Unke guru ne unhe bulaaya tha.", told Namjoon.

"Achha. Vaise, Jungkook, tum aaj kal kahaa'n gaayab rahte ho?", Tae asked.

"Oh! Toh main aap logo'n ko yaad hoon. Vaise, aap meri chinta mat kariye. Aap logo'n ki tarah maine bhi kuchh mitra bana liye hain.", said Jungkook, seeing how his brothers didn't even notice him so far.

Hearing his sarcastic answer, Jimin looked at Tae with a "what happened to him?" face. Tae shrugged, not knowing the reason of Jungkook's rudeness, himself.

Meanwhile, Jungkook left the premises, and went to the garden, to have some fresh air. He was waiting for at least one of his hyungs to come to talk to him, but, no one came. Instead, an arrow passed by his side, taking his armlet along with it. He turned around to see Manavi coming toward him, smiling.

"Pranipat kumar.", Manavi greeted.

"Pranipat.", Jungkook greeted back.

She went and picked up his armlet, and forwarded it to Jungkook. Jungkook shook his head, saying- 

"Yadi aapko mere bhujband itne hi pasand hain, toh aap inhe rakh lijiye, kumari."

"Soch lijiye, kumar. Baad mein agar aap humse ye waapas lene aaye, toh hum aapko lautaayenge nahi.", Manavi told, smiling mischeivously.

"Mai waapas lene nahi aaunga. Aap rakh lijiye.", told Jungkook, removing his other armlet, occasionally glancing towards the garden entrance.

"Kisi ki prateeksha hai aapko?", asked Manavi, taking his other armlet.

"Haan. Mere hyungs.", Jungkook couldn't speak further.

"Voh sab toh abhi bhojan kar rahe hain,", Manavi told.

"Oh, achha.", said Jungkook, disappointed.

"Aapne bhojan kiya, kumar", she asked.

"um.. nahi, abhi nahi.", he told.

"Koi baat nahi, mai aapke liye bhi bhojan manga deti hoon.", she told.

"Yahaan?", he asked.

"Haan kumar, yahaan. Yahaan ke pakshi hamare mitra hain. Hum unke saath hi bhojan karna pasand karte hain.", she said, when a pigeon came to her and sat on her wrist.

"Inse miliye, kumar. Ye hain Adwait, aur adwait, ye hain kumar Jungkook.", Manavi introduced pigeon and Jungkook.

Soon, the food arrived, and they both ate the food, talking and having fun. The birds were surrounding them, and were eating their food from the plate kept for them.
