The door of the room where they had been held was not locked… TV trusted the handcuffs… AS stood with his back to the wall and HM imitated him… He slowly opened the door and found no one guarding it… They tiptoed outside… They were in a house which was in dilapidated condition… It was still dark outside, which meant they hadn’t been out for long… They slowly moved ahead, AS leading the way… Few men were watching some show on the television, their backs facing the entrance of the room… Both quickly tiptoed behind them… They reached the end of the corridor… Both stood with their backs to the wall and AS peeped over his shoulder… He found two men busy talking… He signalled HM to wait there and went towards the men… It took a total of 2 mins for AS to overpower them and stash them in a corner… He came back for HM and found her holding a backpack… “Yeh kya hai??” AS asked… “Baad mei batate hai… Abhi chaliye…” AS nodded and they moved towards the exit…

AS was trying to look for any guards outside the exit when HM saw a man approaching them… She tapped AS’s shoulder and pointed towards the man… AS braced himself and waited for the man to attack… The man started throwing punches… AS blocked his punches effortlessly and then kicked the side of his face… Before the man could recover, AS had sent another punch his way hitting the bridge of his nose… AS sent a consequent blow to his ribs causing the man to fold forward, where his face met with AS’s knee and he was knocked out… HM quickly sat down and looked for any phone in his pockets… They needed directions to the Cantonment… The GPS lady directed them and they hurried in the direction… The empty handcuffs had alerted the men inside and the commotion was heard outside… AS held HM’s hand and looked at her… She nodded and both sprinted away in the darkness… But one of the goons had spotted them…

AS was leading the way through the thick dense forest with the goons trailing closely behind them… The darkness was aiding their escape but it was also a hurdle in locating the correct path… They had managed to maintain a considerable distance from the goons… All of a sudden, HM’s leg had a twist and she was about to fall… But AS held her and helped her stand straight… HM wasn’t able to place her foot on the ground… AS looked around and found a huge tree trunk capable of hiding them… He helped her walk to the tree and settled by it… He removed her footwear and slowly touched her ankle… “Aahh…” HM winced… “Lagta hai dislocate ho gaya hai…” he said… Thankfully she had opted for flats… “Sir aap fix kar sakte hai??” she asked causing him to look at her in shock… “Kar toh sakte hai lekin aapko bohot dard hoga…” “Koi baat nahi… aap kijiye…” she said confidently… “pakka??” “Ji sir… Humara cantonment pohchna bohot zaruri hai… hum bardasht kar lenge…” His pride for her grew by multiple folds… “Thik hai… teen ginte hi hum mod denge…” “Ok…” “Ek…” he started counting while holding her leg… “Ek… ek min sir…” “Kya hua??” “Aapke pas rumal hai…? Please dijiye hume…” He handed her his handkerchief… She stuffed it in her mouth and gestured him to continue… “Ek… Do… Teen…” with that he twisted her foot… There was a clicking sound of the joint and a suppressed scream from her… He quickly held her in his arms… She was trying to bear the pain and simultaneously avoid screaming… The pain surged through her body and tears made their way… He held her close to his heart, his heartbeats calming her… slowly the pain reduced and was now bearable… She broke the hug but he held her by her shoulders… She pulled out the handkerchief from her mouth and took a deep breath…

She looked at him, pain visible in his eyes… He wiped her tears and gave her a smile… She had proven to be stronger than he imagined… He was proud to have fallen for her… She opened the bag she was carrying and pulled out the First Aid box… “Yeh…??” he asked… “Hume laga zarurat pad sakti hai… isiliye utha liya…” she answered… While he was busy knocking those guys out, she was preparing for the journey ahead… Smart, he thought… She handed him a crepe bandage to secure her ankle… “Pain relief spray nahi hai??” he asked… “Hai… lekin uski smell se woh log hume asani se dhund lenge… Aap sirf ise bandh dijiye…” she answered… He carefully wrapped her ankle in the bandage and helped her to stand up… It still pained her but she could walk… Without wasting any more time, they started moving ahead… After half hour of sneaking through the darkness, they had reached the Cantonment… AS helped her up the wall and climbed behind her… The guards were lying around unconscious… They moved towards VG’s house and peaked through the open window… VG and his mother were tied to the chairs with minor injuries and were watched by masked men… TV and MG Gill were no where to be seen… “Haseena ji… Hum ja kar Tanya ko rokte hai… Aap in dono ko chudvaiye…” He whispered… “Lekin Tanya kaha hai??” “Ussi metal shade mei jiski chabhi usne banvai thi…” She nodded understandingly… “All the Best Sir…” “Aapko bhi…” with that he turned to leave… But stopped, turned back and gave her a tight hug, “Hume aap par pura bharosa hai Haseena Malik…” he said and left…

She entered the house just like last night, through the kitchen window… She picked a sharp knife and hid it in her bandage… She peaked out and saw a goon approaching… She hid behind the wall and waited for him to come closer… Once he was in her line of sight, she swiftly moved and held him from behind pressing her palm on his mouth and other hand on the back of his neck… She kicked him in his knee causing him to fall on his knees… she took advantage of his position and twisted his neck in one swift motion… She pulled his lifeless body and hid it behind the refrigerator… She moved out and found the corridor empty… She slowly sneaked through the corridor keeping an eye behind her… Another goon turned around the corner… She hid behind the vase, though not completely concealed but not easily noticeable… She moved out of her hiding and pushed him against the wall with her elbow on his chest… She swiftly moved her free hand and glided the sharp edge of the knife along his neck… He fell down gasping for air… She heard a sound behind her and turned to look… Another goon had spotted her… she aimed the knife in her hand towards him, hitting him in his throat subsequently killing him…

She was now in the living room… She saw one goon ready to attack her… She rotated on one leg and used the momentum to kick his face using the other leg… She blocked his attempt to kick her using her hands, blocked a punch from the left, held the back of his neck with her right hand, tumbled down… she quickly recovered the fall, twisted his leg, turned him onto his stomach and punched his face strong enough to break his neck… She did a somersault to dodge the swing of the rod from another goon… She quickly stood up and blocked another swing from him with her hand and pushed him hard… She twisted her body from her waist and held second goon from his neck simultaneously blocking his punch… She threw a kick behind her as the first goon had recovered and was approaching to attack her from behind… She then slammed the guy that she was holding, on the ground… She sat on his back and twisted his neck… First goon had recovered from the kick and kept swinging the rod to hit her… She kept bending forward and sideways dodging every strike… She blocked his strike with her hands causing the rod to fall from his hand, but he managed to punch her in her face… Before she could recover, he held from her waist… She elevated her legs, twisted her body and wrapped her legs around his neck, used her hands to balance on the ground and slammed him hard… She twisted his leg and he could hear his bones breaking… She then kicked him in his back, breaking his spine…

She stood up breathing heavily from all the action… She took some deep breaths to calm the adrenaline rushing through her veins… “Meher…” she heard and turned around to find an awestruck duo of mother and son staring at her…
