Aadhya Strength Of Pandavas

Chapter 39: ONE SIDED LOVE

It has been four days since the last incident, Shakuni, Duryodhan and Dushashan would always find

ways to avert the topic of division.

Aadhya woke up early and had A feeling to roam around Hastinapur and thought to get some things for

Draupadi and others, she knew she won't be able to roam around alone so she dressed up as a

commoner she sneaked out of the palace without anyone knowing.

In the palace the maids had started decorating entrance and the palace with flowers as they were

ordered to, after everyone was ready and walking in the palace, everyone was confused about as to

why the palace is being decorated and the pandavas were thinking where Aadhya is as they haven't

seen her since morning, Arjun asked Draupadi, "panchali have you seen Aadhya anywhere? We

haven't seen her during the prayers as well", Draupadi replied, "no arya I haven't seen her, even I'm

searching for her, mata might know where she is or she might come directly to the rajya sabha" the

pandavas nodded in reply and they went to rajya sabha hoping Aadhya might be there and today they

might be able to get to talk about the division as they know they can't stay here anymore.

In the rajya sabha everyone had come and Bhisma asked, "Dhritarasth what is the reason to decorate

the palace?" before Dhritarasth could reply Duryodhan replied, "it is for welcoming A special guest

maha mahim" to which Dhritarasth asked, "who is coming putra Duryodhan?", Duryodhan replied, "our

damad is coming pitashree" to which Bishma said, "so Dushala and Jaydarath are coming okay but

before they arrive maharaj, I would like to talk about A topic which is being averted since few days" he

finished giving A look to Duryodhan and Shakuni.

Shakuni smiled and said, "are maha mahim, you have got it worng, what Duryodhan meant was our

future damad is coming, we saw A suitable match for our Aadhya" making everyone shocked the

pandavas who kept quite till now got up and Yudhisthir said, "for Aadhya? but why don't we know about

this? how can we choose someone for her without her permission, this is not right", Shakuni gave his

wicked smile and said, "but maharaj, Aadhya still is A maiden girl, her brothers are married, it's time for

her to get married, plus it's our, the elders responsiblity to see A good house for her, aren't I right

maharaj! plus Duryodhan is Aadhhya's brother as well of course he will care for her and Duryodhan

has learnt from his mistakes, we should give A chance to people who want to change right maharaj!?"

Dhritarasth said, "yes you are right Ghandar Raj, good job putra Duryodhan, you are learning from your

mistakes I'm happy to see that, but putra who is coming, we should know that, you can't just prepare

things suddenly and tell us at the last moment" Duryodhan smiled and said-

WITH AADHYA

First Aadhya went to mata Ganga and gave her respects to mata Ganga, then she went to the temple

and she was very happy that no one recognized here and how freely she could roam around alone like

a commoner, now she is enjoying the market of Hastinapur, looking at people and seeing their daily

lifestyle, Aadhya was happy as she was not noticed till now, she went to A seller seeing the freshly

made delicacies and picked up what she wanted to eat, when the seller was giving her the order he

recognized her and was about to say something but Aadhya shushes him and said, "please keep it A

secret" the shop keeper nodded in response, after eating some delicacies she decided to take some of

them home.

Aadhya decided it was time to go back to the palace and giggled at the thought of A search team being

sent for her. She was walking home when A chariot was coming, she was curious to who was coming

to Hastinapur, she saw the flag and thought why are people from there are coming to Hastinapur the

chariot and the soliders with the king just passed by her when the chariot was ordered to stop, she

sees the king calling one of his soliders and ordering him something, she decided to walk away when

the solider came in front of her and rudely said, "lady the king wants to talk to you."

Aadhya looked up to him A little angry about his tone and said, "first learn how to talk with respect and

what does your king needs?" he looked down being imitated by her look and replied, "I don't know that

please go or else the king will get angry" she decided to go as she thought she was recognized and

reaching there she asked, "what does King of Cheddi Shishupal want from me?" Shishupal finally looks

at her and said, "you, I want you, I fell in love with you at the first sight lady", Aadhya smiles polietly and

says, "sorry I can't fullfil your request king Shishupal" making Shishupal angry and said, "don't you

know who I'm, I can change your life and give you all the luxury and you still refuse my offer."

Aadhya replied, "yes I have A right to reject your offer, even if you give me all the luxury you have I will

still reject you" Shishupal was beyond angry now, he felt insulted because a commoner rejected his Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

offer he ordered the solider, "capture this girl, I want her at any cost" two soliders went ahead and

Aadhya in A swift took A sword which was in Shishupal's chariot and fought the two solider, seeing this

more soliders went to capture her, but seeing five soliders defeated just like that Shishupal got down

and said, "you dare to fight my soliders now fight me and see how I crush your self confidence women,

after you are capture I will tell the king that his people are attacking hastinapur's guest that to A women

and how his praja have started learning weaponry" and went to attack her.

Seeing the fight people had recognized Aadhya as they knew only one lady who could fight in

Hastinapur like this. Aadhya was dodging Shishupal's attakes when he arrogantly said, "you will lose

lady be ready to be my wife, I came here to marry Rajkumari Aadhya but I will be taking more, now

after I capture you I will teach you how to respect men."

Aadhya finally realized why he has come here and who might be the one calling him here, she then

confidently smiled and counter attacked him seeing this Shishupal is taken back and Aadhya takes this

chance and hit him and says, "since you are Hastinapur's guest I can't attack you anymore, so I

suggest you to stop this fight right now and give up on me."

Shishupal is pissed thinking she is mocking him and says, "well your tongue is not less than your sword

both are equally sharp. But this is what make you more intriguing. When I will marry you I will make

sure to teach you how to control it. I love to tame down fierce women. Controlling a wild tigress and

taming it into a house cat is one challenging job. Cheddi naresh Shisupal loves such challenges

especially when it comes from a rare beauty like you. You still have time before we reach palace. Think

about it and come into my arms willingly otherwise I will make you."

Aadhya laughed mockingly holding her sword tightly ready to strike but before that she replies, "ooo

really king looks like you haven't seen a tigress hunting before. Nobody challenges her when she

stalked her prey. When A house cat uses her claws she can defeat anybody. In your ego you have

forgot that nothing can match the strength of prakriti. Don't worry I will give you an example of it which

will always remind you what A fierce women can do."

They started clashing swords, seeing the tough fight she is giving Shishupal eyes his soliders to

capture her from behind, Aadhya knew about this but now she had another idea so she let's them

capture her. When she was captured she smirked and said, "did you realize king Shishupal you

couldn't tame A tigress single handed" hearing this Shishupal fumes in anger and he angrily said, "take

her away and let's go to the palace the king will do justice now!"

Reaching the palace he ignored all the welcoming done for him and straigth went to the rajya sabha,

entering he said, "greetings king of Hastinapur, I received A great welcome by your praja that I'm sure

no one has received, I was insulted by your praja king, does your praja welcome the guests like this?

by attacking them?" making everyone shocked about what was just said as it was the first time this

ever happened, hearing this Dhritarasth angrily said, "who is that person? bring them here I shall

behead them for insulting our guest like this."

Before the soliders of shishupal could take her in the palace she quickly hides her face and uses Maya

to change her voice without anyone noticing, soon she was taken to the rajya sabha and Dhritarasth

shouts, "how dare you attack our guest like this!! Who are you tell me your name and tell me who

dares to teach you fighting"

She came forward and said, "Pranipat maharaj and all the people present here, maharaj I'm just A

commoner, my name is Lakshmi, and I can say my pitashree supported me in leaning sword fighting"

after knowing she is A women Dhritarasth says, "A Suth! That to women how dare you learn sword

fighting! And that too with this gyan you insult our guest!! I order my soliders to behead you right now."

Before the soliders could came she said, "maharaj sorry to talk but at least hear my side, I had A

reason to attack them and I wasn't the first one to attack king Shishupal, so please I beg you to listen to

my side as well, please make your decision after that maharaj and what ever your decision is I will

accept it, consider this as my last wish" Dhritarasth nodded and said, "okay since I'm A king who

follows Dharma I shall hear your side as well."

Lakshmi says, "the matter of me attacking him, it was self defense maharaj, I was attacked by his

soliders as I didn't accept his offer" to which Dhritarasth asked, "what was the offer?" Lakshmi

continued, "he asked my hand for marriage but I refused to marry him and then he ordered his soliders

to capture me maharaj, if I didn't defend my self who would have helped me? He tried to take a

possession on me forcefully and he planned to take me directly to Cheddi after finishing his business

here without my family's permission, what else should I have done maharaj? If you don't believe me

call the praja here they were A witness." she finished and sheds some tears.

Everyone was speechless after learning the whole situation and then Dhritarasth said, "go bring the

praja present there, I want to know if this lady is speaking the truth or not.", shishupal panicked and

said, "maharaj will you believe this women instead of me?" to which Shakuni added, "maharaj why

believe in this lady would the Cheddi king lie to us!?" and Yudhishtir replied, "justice should be done

after listening to both sides Ghandhar Raj" making Shakuni silent and Shishupal more panick about his

deed coming out in front of them, now Shishupal was more then regretting as he was scared about how

they will think when the truth comes out and how he won't have Aadhya now.

Soon some of the praja present there appeared and greeted the king, Dhritarasth then asked, "you

guys saw the whole thing that happened there so tell me who is right, Cheddi king Shishupal or this

lady Lakshmi"

The praja were confused as for why they are calling Rajkumari Aadhya as Lakshmi but the shopkeeper

who gave Aadhya the delicacies knew she was keeping A secret so he told them what happened

between them and they came to know she was really forced and how shishupal disrespected her after

hearing everything Dhritarasth said, "praja you can leave now" and continues, "okay Lakshmi you are

not guilty in this but you didn't give me the answer about you learning sword fighting, You should know

the rules A Suth can't learn such things you will still get punishment for that."

Lakshmi joined her hands and said, "sorry about the words I'm going to speak but why can't I learn A

little sword fighting for my safety? Rajkumari Aadhya has learnt it, the king of Anga has learnt archery

even tho he is A suth, I just learned it to protect my self and I have never used it to hurt someone and if

today I couldn't protect my self I would been have taken away and my family would not be able to do A

thing, as the shop seller said, I even stopped the fight saying he is our guest but maharaj he said such

disrespectful words and attacked me I had no choice but to defend my self."

Duryodhan got up saying, "but pitashree, Despite everything she should have used the legal way and

not use weapons, she should have come to us after all he is our guest and if we the let the commoners

behave this freely then what is the value of rules, what will be our value."

Adhya removed her veil and changing her voice back she spoke boldly, "wow bharata duryodhana I

never knew hastinapur keeps it's law above A women's dignity. A commoner or A princess A women's

dignity is above all the titles and laws. Talking about your guest you should first care why he acted in

such a manner that he would get disrespected. He should also remember his and yours reputation

before acting like this. Also you should ponder upon the fact that why in the first case A women has to

use sword to defend her honor."

Aadhya continues, "and if he had come to see me then why did he chose another women this shows

how much importance and respect he has towrads me and who finds my replacement even before

metting me, if he can't respect me enough now before our marriage how can I expect him to treat me

better after marriage? you wanted me to marry such A guy bharata Duryodhan?"

Aadhya then says, "I know everyone is confused so I will answer the question about why I was acting

as Lakshmi, it's just that I went out dressed as A commoner to spend my morning out alone but then I

met Cheddi king Shishupal and fighting with Cheddi king Shishupal I came to know why he has come

here" she turned to Shishupal and said, "sorry but I rakjumari Aadhya can't marry you, I hope you enjoy

your stay here and maharaj I wish to leave now can I?" Dhritarasth nooded A yes in his startle state still

progressing what all happened.

As Aadhya was about to leave Shishupal arrogantly said, "With this attitude I shall see who marries

you" making Aadhya more pissed about this situation but she still decided to leave and left to calm her

self down. When Aadhya was leaving the solider on the gate said, "rajkumari, the seller left this for you

saying you forgot this" Aadhya took the pakage and smiled seeing that the seller had replaced the

delicacies with new ones as she dropped the bag in the middle of the fight making her calm and A little

happy.

Bhisma got up and says, "Maharaj-" Dhritarasth cut him off saying, "I know what you are going to say

tatshree but let's talk about it tomorrow the rajya sabha is dismissed for today." After hearing this the

pandavas went to meet Aadhya knowing she was pissed about today's events.

Shakuni, Duryodhan and Dushashan were angry about their plan being failed and now they knew even

they can't stop this division, but Shakuni kept A hand on Duryodhan's shoulder and said, "mere baache

we still have tonight, we can figure out things then, I think you should go to your mitra Shishupal and

calm him down. Duryodhan nodded and went to Shishupal who said, "I was humiliated here today I

don't want to stay here A minute" and left.
