The Pandavas were shocked seeing fire everywhere. They tried leaving from the other side but weren't able to as everyplace was set ablaze.

"There is no way to escape." Sehdev said.

"Then we have to make way." Arjun said.

"We must dig an underground passage quickly to escape." Bheem suggested.

"But Bhrata, we don't have that much time. Purochan has lit fire from all the direction. The walls have started to melt and fall." Nakul said.

"Then we must go to the centre of the palace, the fire will reach there the last." Yudhishthir said.

"You're right." Kunti said.

All of them ran carefully and quickly to the centre of palace which was yet untouched by the fire. They took whatever they could find and started digging.

On the other side the Trigun sisters were getting more and more restless by each passing second.

In her room Satyamurti kept worshiping Narayan.

"Prabhu, please do not let any harm befall my family." She prayed.

Rajeshwari kept worshiping Mata Laxmi in her room, as few tears fell from her for some reason.

"Mata, you grant wealth and prosperity. But today I ask you to protect my wealth, my husband and my family." Rajeshwari prayed.

In the temple of Mahadev, Tamasvini kept doing his Abhishek as she kept chanting the Mahamrityunjay mantra.

"ॐ त्र्य॑म्बकं यजामहे सु॒गन्धिं॑ पुष्टि॒वर्ध॑नम् ।
उ॒र्वा॒रु॒कमि॑व॒ बन्ध॑नान् मृ॒त्योर्मु॑क्षीय॒ माऽमृता॑॑त् " Tamasvini chanted.

Out of all the mantras she knew that were dedicated to Mahadev, her heart told her to chant this one specifically. And this was making her more restless.

But their prayers bore fruit as the Pandavas successfully dug a tunnel and escaped Lakshagriha and went to the forest.

"I will not leave that Duryodhan when I reach the palace !" Bheem said.

"No !" Kunti said.

"Mata ?" The Pandavas frowned.

"We are not going back to that palace. The gates of Hastinapur are now closed for us." Kunti said.

"What are you saying Mata ? Hastinapur is our home." Arjun said.

"The place where people conspire against each other is not home. Such place is hell putra, its not home." Kunti said.

"But Mata-" "No buts ! We are not going back to that hell of a place again." Sehdev tried to say but Kunti interjected.

"Putro, we had not gone Hastinapur because we wanted our rights, we went there asking for love and respect of a family. But instead everytime we got enemity and conspiracies. If Duryodhan wants polity then let him have it." Kunti said as tears fell from her eyes.

She fell on her knees as she remembered the years of hatred and conspiracies against her sons.

"Mata !" The Pandavas knelt down and held her.

"Fine Mata, we will not go to Hastinapur." Yudhishthir said.
