Anamika: (angrily) This slap is going to cost you heavily Swara... Very heavily...!!

Someone hears this and calls her from behind...

Unknown: Tch... tch... so sad...

Anamika turns...

Anamika: Who are you...??
Unknown: Hii... I'm Kavita...!!
Anamika: So...??
Kavita: I think that was too much...
Anamika: I won't leave her...
Kavita: I think I can help you...!!
Anamika: (rolls her eyes n looks at Kavita) And why would you do so...??
Kavita: I also have some issues with Swara which need to be settled down...
Anamika: So... you mean we two are going to help each other...
Kavita: Aahhaann... not two my dear... Three...!!
Anamika: (shocked n confused) Three...??
Kavita: There is a person more...
Anamika: Who...??
Kavita: Why don't you meet that person yourself... Come, we need to hurry the marriage is tomorrow...
Anamika: (nods her head) Hmmm...

Both of them leave and they reach an unknown location...

Kavita: Come... let's go...!!
Anamika: What is this place...??
Kavita: You will get to know very soon...

Both of them go inside a room... a person is shown sitting on a rocking chair moving to and fro... and looking at Swasan pic...

Man: (turns) Ohoo... look whom do we have here... My long lost friend...
Anamika: (shocked) Aditya Kashyap...??
Aditya: Yes baby... it's me... How are you...??
Anamika: That's none of your business... Just tell me what are you doing here...!!
Aditya: Looking for an opportunity...
Kavita: And here we are with one...!!
Aditya: What... really...??

All three of them discuss some plans for sometime...

Kavita: So done... Your work will be done tomorrow morning...
Anamika: But don't you dare take our name even if you get caught...
Aditya: Don't worry I won't... I'm giving you my word...

All of them give out a wicked laugh...

------------------------.

Next morning... Ragini gets ready and comes down... and takes everyone's blessings...

Sujata: Wow Ragini... Looking very beautiful beta... God Bless you...!!
Ap: Sach mein Ragini... You are looking gorgeous...!! Achcha beta where is Swara...??
Ragini: Badi Maa... she is getting ready... She said she will be coming in ten minutes...
Ap: Ohh... Okay... Just send her to me... need to finalize a few things... after all it's your big day...
Ragini: (smiles) Ji Badi Maa...

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

15 minutes later...

Ap: Ragini... hasn't Swara come yet...??
Ragini: No Badi Maa... Let me go and check...

Ap nods her head and Ragini goes back to her room...

Ap is sitting with Sanskaar and Laksh when Ragini comes to them running...

Ap: What happened beta...??
Ragini: Wohh... Badi Maa... Swara... Swara...
Sanskaar: What... what happened to Swara...??
Ragini: Swara is not in the room...
Ap: What... Just see beta... She might be somewhere here only...!!
Ragini: No... Badi Maa... I have searched everywhere and she is nowhere to be found...
Sanskaar: (stands up) But where can she go..??

Anamika and Ananya come there along with Kavita...

Anamika: May be... she gave a thought to what I said yesterday... and... she left you...
Sanskaar: (gives a death glare to Anamika) Just... keep... your mouth... shut...!!
Ananya: Shut up di... Jiju... don't listen to her... Swara di is not like that... she can never run away...
Sanskaar: I know Chutki... My Swara can never leave me...
Ragini: But Sanskaar... right now there is something I think you should see...
Sanskaar: What...??
Ragini: Come with me...!!

Ragini takes everyone to her room...

Sanskaar: What happened Ragini...?? What is it..??

Ragini peeps under the bed and takes out something...

Ragini: This... (she shows them something) I was talking about this...
Laksh: Cufflink...??
Sanskaar: But this is neither mine nor Lucky's...
Ragini: Exactly... So the question is whose are they...!!
Laksh: It means someone came to this room... (Ragini nods her head)
Sanskaar: One minute... (looks at the cufflink and thinks something) I think I have seen this somewhere...!!

Anamika and Kavita start sweating... Sanskaar notices this...

Sanskaar: (shouts after sometime) Oh Shit... shit... shit...!!
Laksh: What happened Bhai...??
Sanskaar: Lucky... This can't be happening... This is his... This is Aditya Kashyap's cufflink...
Laksh: What... bhai are you sure..??
Sanskaar: Yes... Lucky, I'm 110% sure... I saw this on the day I proposed Swara for marriage... I had a fight with him that day...
Ragini: Then that means... he came here... (she sits down on the bed)...
Laksh: And since Swara is not here... It's possible that he took her...
Sanskaar: I'm going to find her...
Laksh: (holds his hand) But bhai... where are you going to search her...?? We don't know where has he taken her...??
Sanskaar: But at least we should start naa... I can't afford to lose her...!!
Laksh: Ohh... okay... calm down... I'm also coming with you...
Sanskaar: Hmm... okay... come...!!
Ap: Sanskaar...
Sanskaar: Don't worry Maa... Aapki Bahu muhurat se pehle aapke saamne hogi... I'll bring her back at any cost...
Ap: (smiles) I know you will bring her back... Mera aashirwaad hamesha tumhare saath hai...

They are about to go... but Sanskaar stops and calls Ragini and Ananya...

Sanskaar: I don't know whether what I'm thinking is right or not... but...
Ananya: What happened Jiju...??
Sanskaar: (takes a deep breath) Okay... You both need to do something for me... (Ragini and Ananya nod their heads) Keep an eye on Kavita and Anamika... I don't why... but I have a feeling that they know where Swara is... So just keep an eye on them and inform me as soon as you get to know something...
Ragini: Don't worry Sanskaar... We can do this...
Laksh: Okay... then... we are leaving... (Sanlak turn to leave)
Ragini: (calls from behind) Laksh...!!
Laksh: (turns) Haan...
Ragini: Don't yku dare return without her... otherwise...
Laksh: I know... I know... Otherwise... you won't marry me...!!
Ragini: (gives a fade smile and nods her head with teary eyes) Come back soon...
Laksh: (smiles and kisses her forehead) Don't worry we'll find her...

Sanlak leave...

~-~-~-~-~-~-~

After searching frantically for two hours...

Sanskaar: Now what should we do Lucky... Kahin kuch pata nahin chal raha hai...
Laksh: Don't worry Bhai... we'll find her out...

Just then Sanskaar gets a call...

Sanskaar: (looks at his mobile) Ragini...!! (picks up the call) Haan Ragini... Hmm... Are you sure...?? (gets very happy) Okay... okay... thank you very much...!! (cuts the call) Lucky... come ... I think we found her...
Laksh: But Bhai where is she...??
Sanskaar: It's some worn out godown... five kilometers east of the palace we are staying... The godown hasn't been used since last ten years... so it's a perfect hideout...
Laksh: (calls someone) Hello... Inspector... Yes... We have found her... Just come to the XYZ address... Hmm... Okay...!!

Sanlak leave for some place...

-------------------------.

SOME UNKNOWN PLACE...

Swara is lying on the floor unconscious... A person comes and takes some water in his hands... and pours the water on Swara's face drop by drop...

Swara: (gains conscious) Aahh... My head...!! (holds her head) Sanskaar...!!
Man: Ohoo Baby... now also you are taking his name only... He is not here... I was... I am... I will... always be here...!!
Swara: (looks at the person) Y... you..!! Aditya... But I was in my room...
Aditya: Talking with Anamika...?? (Swara nods her head) Offooo... you are so innocent Swara... How can you trust your sister all over again... when you know she hardly cares for you... In fact she hates you...!!
Swara: (shocked) It means Anamika di... she...
Aditya: She ditched you once again darling..!! Now... (starts moving towards Swara) come... let's have some fun...!!
Swara: No... please... don't do this...!! How can you... Please stop there...!! (Aditya gives a smirk and is about to say something but Swara smiles and cuts in between) Do you really expect me to say something like this...??

Aditya looks at her fearlessness...

Swara: (smiles sarcastically) Ohoo... Someone's hard work gat wasted...!!
Aditya: (angrily) What do you mean...??
Swara: I mean... I have had enough of you... I'm not afraid of you anymore... Sanskaar's love has already given me so much strength that I can not only fight my inner fear... but also you...!!
Aditya: (holds her hairs and pulls her back) Snap out of it baby... Your so called love... your Sanskaar is not here...
Swara: (smiles with tears in her eyes) Do you really think so that he can't reach here...?? We are one soul in two bodies... When one part is here, how can the other part be far away... I know him... He'll reach here any minute... and then... you... will... be... finished...!!

Aditya gets angry and slaps her... Swara falls down and winces in pain...

Swara: Aaahhh... (to herself) Where are you Sanskaar...?? Please come soon...!!

Aditya holds Swara's arm and makes her stand up... He drags her and both of them reach near the stairs... Swara tries with all her might to free herself... Finding an opportunity she bites on Aditya's hand...

Aditya: Aaucchhh... How dare you...??

He gets angry and pushes Swara down the stairs... She rolls down... and cries due to the severe pain...

"I never knew a businessman could be so foolish Mr. Aditya Kashyap", comes a voice...

Swara: (smiles despite of her pain) Sanskaar...!!

Sanskaar comes to Swara and helps her stand up... But due to falling down the stairs her leg gets hurt... Sanskaar picks her up in his arms and makes her sit at some place... In the meantime Laksh gets a hold of Aditya...

Sanskaar: (cups her face) Sorry... I'm late naa...!!
Swara: (nods her head in a NO) I knew it that you will find me...!!

Sanskaar kisses her forehead and then turns towards Aditya... His eyes all red with rage... He tightens his fist and punches Aditya... so hard that he falls on the ground...

Sanskaar: Didn't I warned you before... I said naa... Stay away from Swara... But I think a descent and polite language doesn't ring a bell in your head...!! (he holds Aditya's collar and makes him stand up... He punches him again) How dare you touch my Swara...?? (another punch) Himmat kaise hui tumhari...!! (and a final kick... with that Aditya lies flat on the floor)...
Laksh: (holds Aditya) Areyy bas... bas... Bhai... At least leave something for the one's who are coming... (Aditya looks at Laksh) Don't worry... (pats Aditya's cheeks) Tumhare sasural wale tumhari achche se dekhbhal karenge... After all... you get the best treatment at your in laws only... Right...!! (with this Laksh turns towards the enterance and calls out) Inspector...!!

The police inspector enters and arrests Aditya... They are about to leave when Sanskaar calls from back...

Sanskaar: (touches Aditya's collar) Don't worry... you won't be alone there... You go... and very soon your both the partners will also be joining you...
Aditya: (shocked) Partners...??
Sanskaar: Do you really think I'll leave both of them after what they did to My Swara...?? (to Inspector) Take him away... and I'll make sure he doesn't come out...

Aditya looks on and the inspector drags him away...

Laksh: Bhai... let's take Swara to the hospital... I'll inform the family memebers...
Sanskaar: (nods his head) Hmmm... okay...

He picks up Swara in his arms and takes her to the car...

-----------------------------.

AT THE HOSPITAL...

Doctor: There is nothing to worry about Mr. Maheshwari... Just be of falling from her stairs her ankle is sprained... But yes you have to be very careful with the fracture in her left hand... Even though it's minor fracture and will heal within two-three weeks but still a proper care needs to be taken...
Ap: Don't worry doctor... we will take proper care of our daughter...!!
Dp: When can we take her back...?? Actually it's her marriage today...
Doctor: Ohh... But I'm afraid how will she be able to do all the rituals...
Sanskaar: That's okay doctor... we'll see to it...
Doctor: Okay... then... please complete all the remaining formalities and then you can take her in an hour...
Sanskaar: Okay... thank you doctor...!!

-------------------------.

LATE AFTERNOON... AT THE PALACE...

SWARAGINI's ROOM... everyone is standing in the room... and Swara is lying on the bed... Sanskaar is sitting besides her holding her right hand in between his palms...

Ap: Swara beta... How are you feeling now...??
Swara: Maa... (Ap looks at her) I can call you Maa naa..?? (Ap nods her head and kisses Swara's forehead) Maa... I'm fine...!! In fact, I'm even better after getting so much of love and care...!!
Ap: But beta... If you are not okay with it... we can postpone the marriage...!!
Swara: (shouts immediately) No Maa... Please... I have so many dreams of my future ahead... and with Sanskaar... I can face anything...!! This marriage is the biggest dream of my life... I'm nothing without Sanskaar... Please... Please don't postpone our marriage...!! (a tear drop falls from her eyes)...
Sanskaar: (wipes of her tears) Maa... Shaadi toh aaj hi hogi... We are not postponing it...!! Our marriage is today and it's gonna be today only...!!

Swara smiles seeing Sanskaar...

Dp: Okay... then... what is everyone doing here...?? Get moving... we have so much left to do... after all it's the marriage of both my sons... Come on... fast...!!

Everyone smiles and leaves for the preparations except for Swasan and Raglak...

Swara: Sanskaar... I want to tell you something...
Sanskaar: Haan Swara... kaho..!!
Swara: Actually Sanskaar... Aditya... he is not the only one involved in the kidnapping... But... Annn... (Sanskaar cuts in between)
Sanskaar: Anamika and Kavita are also involved in this matter... (Swara nods her head)
Ragini: Haan... even we found out where is Swara... when I and Ananya heard Anamika and Kavita talking to each other...
Laksh: But Bhai... How are we going to prove them guilty... First of all we don't have any proof against them and that Aditya won't also blurt out their names...
Sanskaar: We need some solid proofs against them...
Ragini: But how... even we'll be engaged in the wedding rituals and all... Then who will find out the proof and will make sure that they don't pull out some new plans against us...!!

"If you want... we can help you out in this matter...", says someone from behind...

Swasan and Raglak look behind and get shocked...

Episode ends...!!

Precap: Swasan marriage...!!

-------------.

A/N

Hmm... now since it's an Indian wedding then the tashan and fun-masti between the girls and boys side is obvious... And for that we are going to need a lot of members either from boy's side and from the girl's side...  In fact when I was writing this story on my fb page some of the admins and editors of my page asked me to introduce them in the story for the wedding... So they will be playing a cameo role in Swasan's wedding to make it a memorable one full of fun and masti... And even though you all must not be knowing them but no worries their characters will be introduced as and when they will enter... Their roles will be for two episodes until the marriage... So, friends get ready for lots of masti and dhamaal... and also the union of our beloved SWASAN...!!  I hope you all will like it...!!
