"THEY DIDN'T ACCEPT THE SHANTI PRASTAV." KRISHNA SAID. "THE WAR IS NOW COMPULSARY." VIRAT SAID. "THE WAR WILL TAKE PLACE IN A MONTH." KRISHNA ANNOUNCED AND THE SOLDIERS OF VIRAT AND HASTINAPUR WENT TO SEND PROPOSAL TO THEIR ALLIES TO TAKE THEIR SIDE IN THE WAR.

DRAUPADI WAS BUSY GETTING READY FOR BED UNTIL SHE FELT TWO PAIRS OF ARM BEING WRAPPED AROUND HER WAIST AND A CHIN RESTING ON HER SHOULDER. "YES ARYA?" DRAUPADI SAID. "ITS BEEN SO LONG!!!" SAVYASACHI SAID. "WHAT?" DRAUPADI ASKED. "ITS TIME THAT OUR PRAKRITI AND DYUMNA GETS A SIBLING." SAVYASACHI SAID PULLING DRAUPADI CLOSE BY WAIST AND THIS TIME DIDN'T OBJECT.

SAVYASACHI SLOWLY HOVERED OVER DRAUPADI AND AS HE WAS ABOUT TO CLAIM HER LIPS PRAKRITI SUDDENLY SQUEALED MAKING THEM AWARE OF HER PRESENCE. HEARING HER YOUNGER ONE SQUEAL DRAUPADI PUSHED HER HUSBAND ASIDE AND STOOD UP STRAIGHT AND WENT TO PICK PRAKRITI FROM HER CRADLE. SAVYASACHI PLOPPED DOWN ON THE BED AND SIGHED REMEMBERING HOW HIS CHILDREN ALWAYS FAILED HIS PLAN OF SPENDING HIS TIME WITH DRAUPADI AT NIGHT.

DRAUPADI BROUGHT THE SLEEPING PRAKRITI TO THE BED AND LAYED HER IN THE CENTER. AS SAVYASACHI WAS ABOUT TO WHINE DRAUPADI QUICKLY PLACED A QUICK PECK AND SLEPT ADJUSTING BLANKET ON THE THREE OF THEM. SAVYASACHI JUST SMILED AND TOOK HIS TWO PRECIOUS GEMS IN A TIGHT EMBRACE AND SLEPT.

"YOU SURE?" THE PANDAVAS ASKED FOR THE 100TH TIME. "YES ARYA! YES! YOU HAVE BEEN ASKING THE SAE QUESTIONS TO ME 100 TIMES." DRAUPADI SAID. "LISTEN DEAR YOU ARE WITH DYUMNA AND RITI AS WELL." KARN SAID. "I KNOW." DRAUPADI SAID. "SO GO TO DWARKA UNTIL THE WAR ISN'T OVER." YUDHISTIR SAID. "AND WHY SHOULD I?" DRAUPADI ASKED. "THE CAMP IN NEAR THE BATTLEFIELD." BHEEM SAID. "I KNOW." DRAUPADI SAID. "THAT'S THE REASON!" THE PANDAVAS SAID IN UNION SLIGHTLY STARTLING PRAKRITI WHO WAS PLAYING WITH PRADYUMNA.

"CALM DOWN BROTHER-IN-LAW. YOU STARTLED YOUR OWN DAUGHTER." KRISHNA SAID ENTERING THE SCENE MAKING THEM LOOK AT PRAKRITI WHO WAS STARING AT THEM WITH HER BIG DOE LIKE EYES. "BHRATA BHEEM IF KRISHNAA GOES TO DWARKA THEN HOW WILL YOU FULFILL YOUR OATH?" KRISHNA ASKED MAKING THEM THINK. "PLUS I WILL BE BORED ALL ALONE IN DWARKA. IF I AM HERE THEN I HAVE SAKHI, MAIYA, BHABHI AND THE REST." DRAUPADI SAID AND THEY FINALLY AGREED TO IT.

THE DAY OF WAR FINALLY CAME, SHIKANDINI WAS FURIOUS THAT SHE COULDN'T TAKE PART IN THE WAR AS HER OATH FROM HER PREVIOUS LIFE AMBA COULD HAVE BEEN FULFILLED BY THIS ONLY MEDIUM. IN ORDER TO DISTRACT SHIKANDINI DRAUPADI TOLD SHIKHANDINI TO TAKE CARE OF PRAKRITI AND JUST LIKE HER MOTHER PRAKRITI VANISHED SHIKHANDINI'S ANGER IN A MINUTE.

*****

THE LADIES WERE BUSY TREATING THE WOUNDED SOLDIER THAT WERE COMING IN. SUDESHANNA AND HER NIECES WERE MAKING THE LAPE AND DRAUPADI AND HER SISTERS WERE APPYLING AND BANDAGING IT. NO GOOD NEW CAME, KAURAVAS WERE BEING HEAVY ON THE PANDAVAS. ARJUN TRIED TO STAY FOCUS AFTER WITNESSING THE BAGWAT GEETA AND THE VIRAT ROOP. HE MADE A HUGE DESTRUCTION WHICH SLOWLY STARTED TO FAVOUR THE PANDAVAS.

THE DAY SOON CAME TO AND END AND IT WAS A TIE. DRAUPADI WELCOMED THE PANDAVAS AND SERVED THEM FOOD AND TREATED THEIR WOUNDS WHILE LISTENING TO THE STORIES OF THE BATTLEFIELD. "MAA!" PRAKRITI CALLED MAKING THE PANDAVAS TURN TOWARDS HER SHOOKED. "LOOKS LIKE I AM THE WINNER AS USUAL." DRAUPADI SAID. "HEY! THAT'S UNFAIR! DYUMNA TOO CALLED YOU MAA FIRST!" THE PANDAVAS COMPLAINED.

"EVER SINCE MORNING WHEN SHE LEARNED TO CALL KRISHNAA SHE HAS BEEN CALLING HER NON-STOP." SHIKHANDINI SAID ENTERING THE SCENE. "SHIKHANDINI? YOU DIDN'T DO YOUR TRAINING TODAY?" KRISHNA ASKED. "NO WHY?" SHIKHANDINI ASKED. "JUST. KEEP TRAINING IT WILL COME TO USE." KRISHNA SAID CONFUSING SHIKHANDINI.
