Om Namah Shivay

The teen turned around and his kundals shone. His face was divine, he seeing the kids immediately recognized them due to their dressing sense.
"Pranipat rajkumaron (princes) " he said bowing down in a fake show of respect.
"To what help can I be of you?" he asked politely.
"Bhratashree I was just passing by with my brothers after completing our daily pooja and couldn't help but walk up to you after seeing you, it was like I was in a trance. I apologize for disturbing you, but you looked like someone very intelligent and kind and a great warrior of the future.  I sensed a certain kind of safety in your presence please forgive this child for disturbing you. " Duryodhan said all this in one breathe in a very scared voice as he could sense the power the teen in front of him held and didn't want to anger him and he did feel guilty about disturbing the young teen with absolutely no reason.
The guy was shocked never had he seen a royalty speak so kindly to people like them. Usually the upper caste would order them around as if they owned them,  their stares full of disgust when it lay on them and many had berated him for doing Pooja,  to be honest he thought they were here to do the same but no he had shown respect, this little child even called him Bhratashree and he was able to read him,  he didn't even fear speaking the truth even though he could identify his strength and that was truly something. He instantly had developed a great respect for the boy in front of him and the fact that this boy called him Bhratashree had him already feeling protective towards the boy.
He had never known he would ever have good thoughts about these upper caste people, but this boy just proved him wrong and that somehow made him feel better. This told him that there was still hope for a better society to be formed.
He realized that the new generation can be changed because we learn to hate, the elders teach the youngsters to hate but loves comes naturally and it is easier to tell a child to love then it is to hate. The kids are untouched by the societies cruel thoughts and hence don't follow them.
It had always been Karna's dream to change the society for the better and he had many ideas and perception on the matter, but this was by far the best.
He looked at the person due to whom he had gotten such thoughts in the first place, and he couldn't help but note the irony that a royalty was the one who gave him a perception on how to destroy their and upper caste's supremacy.

The boy in front of him was indeed unique, he had eyes of a hawk observing things, a wise person could easily tell his mind was beyond what anyone his age has, his poise/stance was of an untrained warrior, his shoulders had a slight slump almost as if he had to carry the burden/responsibilities of the whole world himself, his face showed matureness and protectiveness, they also held fear but not for himself but for his brothers, he looked like someone who thought each his actions thoroughly before doing them, the way he spoke showed he was nervous but not because of what he did but because  Karna could only wonder what had made the boy the way he was rather than being a cheerful kid who shouldn't care about anything they did and just enjoy themself.

Although all that was there Karna could also see the innocence behind those cold eyes, those raw emotions running through the kids face and the heart of the kid which was made of gold. Karna didn't know why but he just wanted to take this child in his arm and hide from the world while showering all the love he had in himself on the boy. He had never felt so protective over anyone but Shon. He somehow made his heart swell with joy and from that moment onwards Karna knew that the boy was special, and he should no not should, must, he must never let him go

Karna asked him in a soft voice "Hey Rajkumar it's no fault of yours but if you think me worthy enough then please tell me your name"

Duryodhan was shocked no one had ever been so kind to him and Duryodhan couldn't help but feel happy and said in a child-like voice "Suyodhana"......

Om Namah Shivaay
