Draupadi pov
Just a few hours back we cremated Cabir's body. None of us could watch. Anandhi screamed so much. Tara wanted to calm her down but we didn't let her as Anandhi was in a state where she was ready to push everyone down. Tara also blamed her bad luck over this and started crying. Having to calm down two people was hard but Nakul took care of Anandhi while Abhi took care of Tara. Right now we all are in Anandhi's room.
Chitra : Look there is reason why we are actually here. There are spies.
Suthakarma : I am not shocked.
Chitra : I know so we can't discuss this in our battle hall or something. Thats why I said loudly that we should all go and comfort Anandhi. So Dhirsthduyman tell us the soldiers response.
Dhirsthduyman : They are all disheartened about how today's attack went. Not that I blame them but we did lose someone.
Uttara : I am not trying to be unkind or anything but don't people die in wars.
Suthanu smiled : Tara except this attack was meant for the King.
Abhimanyu : That is where you are wrong. It was meant for Cabir. It was made to look like the King was the target.
Samyuktha : But why Cabir bhai?
Abhimanyu : Vrushali.
Hearing her name I froze.
Me : Vru..shali..
Abhimanyu : He said that name.
Karn : When?
Nakul : When you were asking us to save him and when we said it was too late.
Uloopi : Don't be worried she won't harm anyone for sometime.
Me : Sometime?
Uloopi ignored my question. I am not shocked.
Suthanu : Whats the plan?
Chitra : Simple. We trick them.
Yudhisthir : What?
Chitra : We need to finish the war by tomorrow. There is a way to do it. If Yudhisthir bhai goes to attack Hastinapur Pitamah will go to stop him. Karn bhai can take care of Drona. Dhirsthduyman Aswattama. Arya I need you to hold of the others. Bheem bhai kill Duryodhan for good.
Krish : I assume you have a good plan to cause illusions also.
Siya : You know her to well. Yes there is a plan. Anandhi should go to the battle ground.
What no. I am not letting her go.
Me : No.
Siya : Didi I know you are scared its either her or Subhi. I chose Anandhi as she needs to prove to someone she is good.
Anandhi : I will take care of Sakuni.
Yudhisthir : This is just wrong.
Anandhi : My husband is dead and not even in an proper dual. They broke the rules already uncle.
Krish : Bhai when we are doing something good doing some bad things isn't wrong.
Me : So the plan is settled.
Arya nodded but I know he is not happy.
Uloopi : May the way end tomorrow.
There was a big amount of sadness in her eyes. I just hope things will be good soon.
