While Rocky is busy with tackling the partners, posting R-Guards at the Outpost1 and digging up more gold, Regina has another major concern, Adheera. Seeing his sword in the treasury that day sent a new wave of terror down her body. She knew Adheera is too straight forward to attack Garuda in such a way & she had a word with Garuda as well regarding the same. But he still wentahead with the plan of attack and when they came back with the news of his death, she scoffed and wanted to bang her head on the near by wall, like that is so believable(note the sarcasm here). I mean come on, How stupid can they be? She was quite confident that he was alive and she was proven right. She and Garuda discussed and decided to let it go for the moment as he'spretending to be dead and not posing a problem at least for the moment and will think of a plan to tackle him when they have to cross that bridge. But she had a suspicion that Garuda already have something planned and did not want me to be a part of that, which in itself is quite intriguing. Shaking herself out of the past thoughts, she looked at the situation on hand.


She knew he's going to show his hand very soon for quite some time. He'll come back any day now to claim KGF. Garuda and the promise Adheera made to Suryavardhan was the only thing keeping him away from KGF till now, but now there is nothing that can stop him to come back and claim what he thinks is rightfully his. She shudders at the thought of him. As much as she hates it and she'd die before voicing it out, she can see Rocky is good for KGF & it's people. She can see what he's doing for the people and how happy they seem to be. She's worried what'll happen to them if Adheera comes back. What to do? Shall I tell Rocky? And what will I tell? That Adheera is alive and he's going to come to take back his throne? And then what, tell them theweaknesses and the details of how Adheera fights? Can she be able to do that? Can she stoop that low? No matter what a ruthless bastard he is, Adheera is family, her mother's brother. Can she betray him? But now she has another family to think about, the people of KGF. She can see from the balcony where the kids are playing, ladies talking happily about something without any worries. Can she snatch this happiness away from them? Can she throw them back to the same life they were used to again? What crime did they commit to live such horrendous lives?


She got the confirmation that he's on move just this morning. And that to a message very vague and not with enough details for her liking. This isolation that Rocky imposed on her is getting on her nerves by the day. The communication black out is making her really nervous and paranoid all the time. She's not used to it. Not knowing what's happening out there. She has the best spy/information network in place and used to know the moves of the opponent the moment it formulated in their minds. Like an entire map with the whereabouts of the enemy clearly highlighted and will be alerted once anyone is on the move. But now, she did not know what is the progress that to after such a huge event, Suryavardhan's family is dead and an outsider sits on the throne of KGF for the first time. What are the changes in the equations of the other stake holders or as Suryavardhan likes to call them, vultures. Who is supporting whom? Who is conspiring against whom? Nothing. Rocky doesn't even fully know what hornet's nest he had disturbed and the ripple effect of this motion on the entire world. She needs to be in the knowand for that this communication blackout needs to be gone. Think Regina!! Think.


Rocky is speaking with Vittal & some other workers related to issues in sector 5 mines when he saw Regina approaching with a determined look on her face. To say he's quite surprised would be an understatement. In all these days after their marriage, there has never been a day where Regina acknowledged his existence voluntarily, let alone made an attempt to speak with him. It was always him who reached out to her. He came out of his thoughts and addressed her.

Rocky : What happened, chinna? Do you need anything? You could've called for me, no? Why tired yourself?

Regina still with a blank face and looking at something to Rocky's left not even looking at him: I need to speak with you in private.
