Naagin5 One Shots

25. Akeshwari Pt. 4

Hriday woke up angry and confused. He was angry as he did not feel the surge of power like he expected he should and was confused about how Nageshwari survived the poison. He wanted to shout and scream. Moreover, the kul Guru of the cheels' was asking for the nagmani. Hriday had hissed angrily at the messenger and told him that he would pay up only if Nageshwari died but now that old cheel was blackmailing him. He clenched his fists in anger.

H: bs ek baar....ek baar mai tumhe maar doon na Nageshwari...to mai itna shaktishaali ho jaunga ki sb mere age jhukenge...use buddhe kul guru ko to mai palak jhapakte hi maar dunga aur duniya ki hr sapoli mere kadam choomegi......

A young serpent came his way and Hriday schooled his expressions.

S: Pranam..

H: Bolo...kyu aye ho?

S: Adi Naagin ji ne aapse poorani pahadi ki gufa ke pass milne ko kaha hai..

H: thik hai..

The serpent went away.

H: waah! Mauka mere pass khud chalkr aya hai...iss baar nahi chorunga..Pehle us kul guru se ek aur khanjar mangwa leta hoon...

Akesh was pacing back and forth. He had reached their usual spot an hour ago but Nageshwari was yet to come. He was getting worried. She was attacked last night and his heart started to panic; thinking of the worst. He recalled pouring his heart out to Nageshwari last night. He could see the love shine bright in her eyes as well. It was so obvious. His docile lover did not know how to hide things and her eyes were the windows to the depths of her heart; a place that had trapped him forever. However, he could sense something was stopping her. Even after the panditayan revealed that Nageshwari wasn't bound to another Nag and was free to pick her own Saathi- she looked torn and confused. Akesh felt the stress was not good for her and asked her to sleep over her thoughts and let him know tomorrow.

A: (thinks) jitni asaani se tumhe waqt lene ko kaha tha na maine...utni asani se ye waqt guzra nahi....Kl poori raat, subah se ek ek lamha maine kaise guzara hai mai hi jaanta hoon...ab aur intezaar mt karwao Nageshwari...Ye jaan tumhari hai...isse apna lo ya le lo...pr ab aa jao...

Akesh was getting restless and decided to inquire now. He reached the nag temple and flew to the window, carefully so that no nags spot him.

A: Phss....panditayan ji...

P: Aaaah!!.....hey bholenath....aap hai.!..aapko aise mujhe darana band krna hoga...

A: Mai bholenath nahi hoon...aacha, dariye mt...aap Nageshwari ko bulaiye na....usse kehna agr vo mujhse gussa hai to maar le lekin milley to sahi ...

P: Kya? Lekin adi naagin to bohot pehle hi yahan se chali gayi thi...

A: Kya? Kahan?

P: Unhone kaha tha ki unhe apse milne jaana hai lekin usse pehle ek aur zaruri kaam krna hai...

A: Vo nahi aayi mere pass....aapko kaam bataya tha usne?

P: Nahi ...pr unhone kaha tha ki vo sahi krne se pehle kissi aur ke sath galat nahi kr skti...nayi shurat ant ke baad hi hogi...

A: Iska kya mtlb ho skta hai...accha choriye...dhanyawad...

Akesh flew up high in the sky and began surveying the area. He kept thinking where Nageshwari could have gone. He signaled his followers to come to him and made them to survey the area as well and be discreet about it.

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

While Akesh was searching high and low for Nageshwari, the cause of his panic was lying peacefully on a rough, rocky surface of the mountains. Her hands were tied using belpatras and sacred threads. Her eyes fluttered as she slowly began to gain consciousness. She noticed her situation and started to recall what had happened.
