Just then a man walked out and said "Shame on men like you who were disrespecting women. More than that you were trying to stab a warrior from the back! If I ever see you do this again you're head won't be attached to your body"
The 3 men begged for forgiveness and ran off.
"Thank you so much Bhrata, you saved our lives" Subhadra said "With that, you're shot was so perfect, it broke the sword without harming anyone. Though I've never seen great archers like Rajkumar Arjun and Angaraj Karn showcase their skills, I can say it for sure that you are good enough to compete with them" Subhadra said
Dushala tried to nudge her but she just kept speaking
"Do you think Angaraj Karn, being a Suthputr is as good as Rajkumar Arjun?" the man asked
"Of course, Bhrata. If Rajkumar Arjun was not able to defeat Angaraj Karn in the Kala Pradarshan then isn't it obvious that Angaraj Karn is as good as Rajkumar Arjun? And caste by birth doesn't define any person. So in my opinion Radheya Karn and Kunti putr Arjun are equal in skill"
Dushala tried nudging her again but in vain
"May I know why you callled the 2 great warriors by their mother's name, sister?"
"That is because their mother's love always acts as a shield and strength for them Besides, which warrior doesn't like being addressed by their parents name. Even I like being addressed as Vasudevsuth and Rohininandini." she said but bit her tongue after realizing she had revealed her identity. The Man smiled
"So, you are Krishnanuja Subhadra, am I right rajkumari?" the man asked still smiling
"Bhrata, before I revealed my identity you were fine with calling me sister, now why are you calling me rajkumari" asked Subhadra
"How can I consider Krishna and Balram's sister to be a mine, a commoner's sister?" the man asked
"Because you are not a commoner, you are Angaraj Karn" Dushala said coming forward
"And you must be mitr Duryodhana's sister Dushala, am I right?" Karn asked and Dushala nodded
"Angaraj Karn!" Subhadra said in surprise
"See, now you are only not accepting me as you're brother. I always wished for a sister but who will consider me, someone who supports Duryodhana and considers Arjun as a Rival as a brother?" Karn asked sighing "Who will want a Suthputr to be their brother" Karn continued turning towards the other side
"We will" Subhadra and Dushala said together and Karn was shocked
"Today we promise you that as a sister we will always protect you're respect and will never let anyone give an opinion about you based on your caste. Today these sisters of yours promise that we will always protect your self esteem, self respect and never let anyone insult you"" Subhadra and Dushala said together
Karn had tears in his eyes listening to Dushala and Subhadra and they shared a group hug
"Bhrata Karn, will you not tell anyone about us sneaking out" Subhadra asked making a puppy face
"Why will I?" asked Karn "After all which brother liked to see their sister in trouble" asked Karn
"Thats like my Bhrata" Subhadra and Dushala high fied each other
"Bhrata, now we will leave but I assure you we will meet soon"
Karn nodded and Subhadra and Dushala sneaked back in the palace
Flashback ends
Subhadra POV
I realized the situation in front of me and remembered my promise. My Bhrata Karn was being insulted!
How could a sister bear a brother's insult? How could a sister bear someone calling her brother helpless and weak? How could a sister bear someone calling her brother 'suthputr'? And I had a similar condition.
Rajkumar Arjun insulted my brother by saying ""It won't take me a minute to defeat you. In the Kalapradarshan we couldn't harm the opponent and the sun set otherwise I would have killed you with my divine weapons. Who would have protected you, Suthputr?"
That was enough for me and I stepped ahead and said "A sister's love will protect Angraj Karn, Rajkumar Arjun"
Dushala joined me by saying "Not one but two sisters love will protect him"
"One will act as a shield and protect him from every possible weapon while the other will act as a sword and help him pierce into his enemy's" I completed
"Who are these sisters of yours, mitr?" asked Duryodhana
"My sisters are the sisters one can only dream of. One of my sister is the only sister of Dwarkadheesh Vasudev Krishna and Balram while the other is the only sister of the Kauravas and Pandavas. While one is the Dwarkaratna Yadhavkumari the other is gandharinandan Kurukanya. My sisters are none other than Subhadra and Dushala" Karn completed as Dushala and Subhadra hugged him.
Everyone could just admire the bond and could not help but smile.
How was the bond between Subhadra and Karn, the brother sister one?
