Jai: SHUKLA!....ab ye takla kahan mar gaya? SHUKLA?!

S: Mai, mai yahan hoon Jai!

J: ye mai mai kya kr raha hai, bakre ki tarah..kahan tha

S: Yahin tha..

J: Accha chal vo sb chor...mujhe adi naagin ka pata chal gaya hai..

S: sach me? K-kahan hai vo?

J: tu sach me sahi hai na? Itna paseena kyu aa raha hai?

S: kuch nahi...apne kaha than a ki adi naagin ka pata chal gaya hai...kahan hai vo?

J: aap? Tu sach me pagla gaya hai buddhe but I like it so let it be...haan vo adi naagin bholenath ke mandir me chupi hui hai...darpok! uska ant uske ishwar ke samne hi hoga...

Shukla nodded.

J: Khanjar ready hai?

Shukla nodded again and handed him a weapon. It was laced in poison. There were very few things that could kill an adi naagin. This poison, very difficult to make, was one of them.

J: Chal jaldi ab, abhi vo kamzor hai...yahi sahi mauka hai.

They leave.

....................................

Bani was sitting in front of Bholenath in the prachin mandir when she suddenly felt movement around her. She opened her eyes but suddenly many nags surrounded her. They were wearing gloves and had belpatras in their hands. They threw them on her and she fainted.

....................................

Bani woke up as a bucket full of water was mercilessly thrown at her. She sprang to life, weak due to the belpatras and cried. The nags still surrounded her.

B: Kyu? Kyu kar rahe ho aisa?

N: Humari koi dushmani nahi hai...pr tumhari shaktiyan....ek aurat ko itni shaktiyan?....nahi!

B: Nagrani, Mahanagrani.....sadiyon se naaginon ne nag vansh ki bagdor sambhali hai. Hum in insano ki tarah kabse fark krne lage?

N: Vo sb hume nahi pata...pr agr aur shaktiyan hume mill skti hai to hum vo mauka kyu gawaye?

J: Sahi kaha!

Jai's voice came from behind but before Bani could turn, he threw a well aimed khanjar at her. What happened next, shook them all.

A majestic cheel rose into the air and began flapping its wings. The power created a storm that blew away the things lying around. The khanjar dropped down as the winds blowing opposite to its direction rendered it useless. He got down and stood next to Bani. His wings spread out while Bani took her naagin form. Bani stood in her red-gold attire while Veer stood behind her in his half cheel roop.

J: (shocked) Impossible!!

V: (laughs) kyu shock laga shock laga? Haha

J: Shukla! Saale tub hi aaja andr...is bewakoof naagin ne fir wahi galti ki hai..pr ye...ye sb kaise?

Shukla entered the premises too and quickly dived for the khanjar but to shock Jai further, he threw the knife into the waiting hands of Bani.

J: Abe takle?!

B: shh....story time Jai Mathur!

Flash back

Arijit had seen his friend get brutally murdered by Jai and heard them. He realized he was played and that his companions weren't good people either. When he heard about the khanjar that Shukla was preparing, he entered the cave with the intentions to steal it but witnessed Shukla getting killed instead.
