Now I could see Vishwa locked in close combat with Ashwatthama, trying her hardest to fight. Her dagger constantly tried to attack Ashwatthama's gem, the one which supposedly granted him immortality.

I watched in horror as blood ran down her arms from the slashes of Ashwatthama's sword, even though she had injured him more than he her.

But even her body was split in two, trying to heal her wounds and fight at the same time.

Eventually her slashes grew slack, attacks weak and while she doged a particular one, I had enough.

I pushed away the soldier who had been annoying me and stormed over, pushing her away as I blocked the attach which was mean to hit her.

I held his sword between my hands, right at the centre of my stomach, twisting it away with my own as he staggered back, arm wrung around.

"Vishwa leave. " I called as she nodded, having gained enough energy to run.

I could only see red then, maybe later I would learn that it wasn't my anger but my flame, but in that instant, I felt myself grow terribly with rage.

" I trusted you! I trusted Mini around you! " I screamed at him, attacking him relentlessly as he returned with full force, though his moves were only in defence.

"Sagarika -"

" No! No I trusted you! Yudhishthir trusted you and you repay us like this! Tell me.. Did you kill her child? Mini's child! Do you even know what Dushasan tried to do to her! And yet you support them! "

His replies went unheard, my attacks were bordering on murderous, even though I knew I still had questions. But my anger was becoming the best of me.

We need him for interrogation. I needed him alive.

" Bheem! " I yelled as I saw him race over to me, throwing away soldiers in his path.

Ashwatthama looked back confused, but it was too late for him to react as Bheem held him down, binding his hands and dragging him across the field.

" Bheem!" I heard a strangled shout and looked around to see GuruDron's arrows ready to be fired upon my brother.

Not on my watch.

I ran in front of both of them, as Bheem dragged Ashwatthama's kicking body away, I raised my shields of fire, the arrows sizzling in the blistering heat.

But the arrows wouldn't stop, they were being fired constantly, nothing could stop them, my flames, while they rose higher in retaliation, my own energy drained.

"GuruDron! Today your son will understand what it means to betray a friend! " I shouted as his eyes blazed in anger and pain.

His eyes shifted to behind me.

I am so stupid.

I am so stupid......

I felt my world go black, eyes shutting as a sharp pain stung my back, the pain radiated all over my body, while I tried to turn around, I felt my hands being caught, held back. I could feel the strong hand behind me, yet I also knew, that the hand was only born of revenge.

" This is what happens when you challenge a wife, " She whispered harshly into my ear, even as I tried to escape her hold, I felt the sword dig deeper into my back.

My flames could regenerate me, but I was still holding the wall in front.

If I pulled it back, I'd definitely die of the arrows.

If I didn't, I'd probably die by the sword wound.

My mind was ticking. I had to make a decision. But my body was beginning to give up, the wall slowly fell, the arrows whizzing past my head, but her hold on me was relentless.

'Krishn'? I whispered as a last ditch attempt, I could feel the flames drop, the arrows pierce my thighs, the sword dig into me.

So... This is the way I die.

^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•^•

While I fought with my Devi on the other side of the field, watching her anhilate armies, simply by blowing her flames over them, her eyes blazed red, rings of hot bright flames surrounded her irises .

I could feel Sahdev behind me, as we fought, his swords and my arrows, but the enemies were far too many. Arjun was locked in a battle with the new  king of Anga and I had seen Bheem draghijg someone away.

Yudhishthir was nearby too, he was constantly fighting at least five soldiers at once, his spear was faster than the vajr today as it spinned and slashed.

The man was scary when he wanted to be..

But as we consistently doged attacks, I saw the beginnings of a storm.

My eyes rose to see a tornado forming in the battlefield, whisking away friends and fow alike, its intensity increasing with every batallion in picked.

"Yudhishthir! " I shouted, hoping to divert his mind over to the tornado.

He looked up, eyes widening by a fraction before he sprinted into action, running towards the storm.

" What are you doing! Stop! Jyeshth!" Sahdev yelled, even as Yudhishthir ran unbothered into the storm, dighing his spear and holding on to dear life as he waited for the storm to approach him.

He closed his eyes, then swiftly began to spin another spear, in the direction opposite to the wind.

While it didn't look like much, the winds slowly picked, spinning in the opposite direction, it's effect instantaneous as the tornado died down.

While he ran back, his eyes we're triumphant, but the disaster was evident. We could see the injured soldiers, even from our sides. Elephants which lay, panting and horses which fleed the field.

" Good thinking, " I said as he joined us, slashing away.

" Yes well, it's basic science, " He said, " Sagarika taught me one day, " He panted.

Speaking of.

Where was Saag.

Last I saw her was when Sulo was captured.

"Mano! " I heard a sharp scream and  snapped my head to see Sphulingini crash into the circle of soldiers.

Her horse neighed in revolt, stompig on his attackers.

" What is it? " Devi asked anxiously, her eyes still on the soldiers she fought.

" Sa-saa-"

" What happened to Sagarika! " Yudhishthir yelled as he kicked away a soldier.

" Sagarika-she's... She's dead! " She screamed.

I felt my blood run cold.

" No. " I laughed and she stared at me, her eyes wide, moist with tears.

" No no. You have it wrong. Saag cannot die. It's impossible. " I said, bursting into laughter.

Yudhishthir's spear fell onto the ground, his eyes glazed.

Stupid. She's not dead. Doesn't he trust his wife? Doesn't he know she can't die!

Saag cannot die! It's impossible!

This is what I got.
