Operation Love (Rishbala Fanfiction)

Chapter 7

(Madhu's POV)

I made an attempt to grab the iron rod, but it made so much noise while moving it that I couldn't take it. I did however, find a scrap of paper. I quickly scrawled a sloppy note with a piece of coal lying in a corner. The man was then coming to check on me. I snuck back to where they held me captive, and wrapped the ropes and gag loosely as fast as I could. He looked at me and laughed.

"You're coming with me, girl. Time to make some good use of you."

He grabbed my wrist and dragged me into another room. This room actually had light in it. There were tables filled with weaponry, plans, and gunpowder. Most of it looked like bomb making material. I was horrified. What were they going to do with me? I tried to fight from his grasp, but he tugged harder. He sat me down on an iron chair and tied me to it.

"She's here boss."

I heard footsteps coming from in front of me. Then I saw those eyes. Green, piercing eyes. Sultan.

"How are you doing, Madhubala?" He said, placing a foot on the chair. He pulled my gag off.

"What do you want with me Sultan?" I hissed.

"You'll see. Just a moment." He signaled the man. He went away for a moment.

"You'll never succeed in your plans Sultan!" I hissed. He laughed.

"Watch me." He snickered.

The man came back, holding something in his hands. I couldn't see it until he came into full view. It was a bomb. He brought it over to Sultan, while my breaths grew quick in fear of seeing that thing.

"This is for you Madhubala." He said.

"Wh...what are you going to do?" I stammered. I felt the sweat bead on my forehead.

"You're going to be my weapon." He smiled. "You see this bomb? You're going to take it to its destination. Your final resting place."

"No!" I yelled. I fought at my restraints.

"Why not? It will be fun.....for me anyways." He pulled my hair.

"I don't want to be your weapon. Why don't you just kill me?" I spat.

"I don't want to waste your life when it benefits me..." He evilly said.

He left me in the room alone, facing my death which was in the form of a bomb. Tears brimmed my eyes, dripping to the cold floor. I only hoped and prayed that RK found me soon.

(RK's POV)

We slowly followed Viren in the van. He didn't seem suspicious of his surroundings. As long as I've known him for, he didn't stop to think much. He went straight to his goal. This time that goal being Sultan's hideout. We were soon forced to leave the vehicle and follow him into a quiet alleyway. He disappeared. I told everyone to split up and find him quickly.

My mind was set only on Madhu. I wanted her back with me, safe and sound. I was worried for her like hell.

I soon found Viren sneaking behind a building hidden deep in the area. I poised my gun and followed him. There was another man standing there, like he was patrolling. He whispered something into the man's ear and went inside. Once the man turned around, I shot him clean in the head. He slumped to the ground. I took my steps cautiously and turned the doorknob of the building. I threw the door open, my gun fixated towards the inside. Nothing. Just a bare room. Mukund and the others caught up, along with Princess. There had to be some clue. Princess trotted inside and sniffed around the place, finally scratching at a empty bookcase in the back. I went over there, and pushed it. It moved.

"Mukund, come over here." I ushered. "Everyone." I called them too.

"There has to be something here." Sameer said. "Viren couldn't have vanished into thin air."

"Help me move this thing." I said.

We all pushed the bookcase to the side, revealing an underground passage. We all took a defensive stance and proceeded down with caution. The place smelt of chemicals and gun powder. The water dripped from the ceiling onto the floor. It was that quiet. We reached the bottom of the steps, still encountering no one. There was an iron door down there, locked from the inside. Madhu must be in there. She had to be. Princess came down and nudged the door with her nose. She whimpered.

"RK....we have to find another way in." Akash said. He was right.

"Akash, Sameer, Rohan....you stay down here. Watch for any action. I'll take the others."

"Right." They said.

I went back outside and searched the outskirts of the building along with the others. No luck. Until Mukund yelled for the others.

"Guys....look at this." He pointed towards the ground. His foot was on a piece of stone seemed to be breaking. I lifted it up and found a metal hatch. Bingo.

"I'll go first." He volunteered.

"Be careful." I said.

We opened the hatch and Mukund dropped inside. He had his gun ready and disappeared into the dark. He came back seconds later.

"RK...I found them." He whispered.

At that moment we dropped in one by one. The door to the room we were in was slightly open and there was a glass window in it. There I saw them all. All those bloody terrorists. Now I just needed to find Sultan....and save Madhu from his clutches.
