I was starving. I could barely make out the figures at the doorway. My eyesight dimmed, and I collapsed on the cold, hard floor.
Someone poured something in my mouth, and my body felt reenergized. I groaned, and woke up, rubbing my eyes.
I slowly turned around, and saw my cousins. "You- you guys saved me!" I exclaimed.
I hugged my brothers and my friends. "You guys followed the clues?!" I said excitedly.
"How did you-" "I was the one making them." I explained, "The rhymes. I even defeated the nagas. I helped you with the plans!"
"Oh, yeah!" Isha said, "Your voice. It was in our heads."
"Exactly." I said.
"The-" I gripped Sid's forearms, my eyes glowing. "The place of me where you bathed, shall turn red with the blood of those in a raid. Be warned, brother, the Sun child's traits are just a cover. We shall defeat the hundred, once and for all, but very soon, peace shall fall."
I blinked, and came back to normal. "-rhymes, I made them with whatever I saw through my visions." I said.
"What?" I asked, seeing their expressions.
"Nothing," Sam said quickly. "We'll talk about it later. It's not safe here."
"Okay....."
"Do you feel strong enough to swim?" Sid asked.
I showed him my bony arm. "Apparently not." he said, and picked me up in a fireman's lift. "Hey- HEY!" I said angrily.
"Most easy way," he shrugged. And then he ran. Along with the others. "Huh. This is good." I said. My eyes were heavy, and I drifted off to sleep. After what it seemed like two seconds, I was dropped onto soft sand. "The fudge-" I murmured. Sid was panting, and scoffed, "You're no feather. Don't look so offended." "Help me up," I said, reaching my hand out. Sid grabbed it, and I got up, feeling a bit wobbly on my feet. "Should we go back to the Pandavas?" I asked.
"Yes.... they'll have a battle plan." Sid agreed.
We took a portal to the underwater palace, and found out that the solar eclipse was only 2 days away.
"Duryodhana is currently planning to march on Amaravati." we heard, from a panicked Yudhishthira.
