CHAPTER 7

Getting pushed unto a tree, Duryodhan laughed, shamelessly. He really showed no remorse for releasing snakes in the Pramankoti.

"Have you really lost your mind !?" Manvendra asked angrily.

"Well blame yourselves !" Duryodhan exclaimed.

"You make no sense Duryodhan." Bheem said.

"You all being here, to take my throne also doesn't make sense. But here we are." Duryodhan said, standing straight up.

"The throne will go to the one who is worthy of it. And you're clearly not." Manvendra said.

"WHO ARE YOU TO SAY THAT ! THE THRONE IS MINE ! THIS HASTINAPUR IS MINE ! I AM THE RIGHTFUL HEIR ! AND I WILL NOT LET ANY OF YOU TAKE THAT FROM ME !" Duryodhan yelled.

Seeing such hatred in his voice, Manvendra and Bheem were shook. His words were laced with contempt and jealously.

"So you'll try to kill me ? Your own cousin ?" Bheem asked.

"Not just you. But anyone who'll come between me and the throne." Duryodhan said.

At that Manvendra grabbed him by the shoulder and pinned him to the tree, both of them angrily looking at each other.

"Do you even know what you're talking about ?" Manvendra asked.

"Raudra, don't think you can scare me like this and I'll stop. You'll be a fool to believe that." Duryodhan said.

Manvendra frowned as he let go of Duryodhan, staring at him with disbelief as the son of Gandhari chuckled before standing straight and brushing the dust off his clothes.

"Don't ever think that I'll stop." Duryodhan said and then looked at Bheem, "Not until you and your brothers leave Hastinapur." He told.

"I thought you were just a brat, but no. You're a wicked-minded one with an evil soul. You were hard enough to be with, but now I can't even bear to look at you, who is filled with so much hate and contempt." Manvendra said.

Duryodhan just scoffed while the son Vidur left taking Bheem with him.

"You all must be careful now. Not just you Bheem." Manvendra said.

"I know, Taat. Don't worry, we'll be fine." Bheem said.

-- SOME DAYS LATER --

Yuyutsu was walking down the hall when, he overheard a conversation.

"Did you do it ?" A voice asked which clearly belonged to Shakuni, Yuyutsu stayed behind to listen to what they were upto now.

"Yes. The Kalkut you gave, I poured it entirely in Bheem's food." Duryodhan said.

"Marvelous, my dear nephew. It's only a matter of time now when that Vrikoder will die." Shakuni said with a chuckle.

A gasp left the lips of Yuyutsu, "Despicable beings." He muttered.

He hurriedly left from there, lest they see him. On his way Yuyutsu saw Manvendra and decided to inform him.

"Taat !" He went towards the Raudra.

"Ah Yuyutsu ? I was looking for you. Lunch is ready." Manvendra turned to him.

"Duryodhan is again upto something." Yuyutsu said.

"Now what ?" Manvendra asked.

"He mixed Kalkut poison in Bheem's food." Yuyutsu said.

"That brat-" Manvendra ran towards the dinning hall and Yuyutsu followed behind. They both rushed inside and saw the Pandavas and Kunti ready to eat.

"Bheem ! Don't touch your food !" Manvendra said causing the Vrikoder to stop.

"What happened ?" Bheem asked.

"Your food is poisoned, taat." Yuyutsu said.

"What !?" The rest of the Pandavas exclaimed and Kunti stood up.

"Duryodhan poisoned it with Kalkut." Yuyutsu said.

"Oh don't worry." Bheem said with a smile before putting the food in his mouth.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING !?" Manvendra exclaimed.

"Taat, I appreciate your worry but Kalkut is not a poison strong enough for me." Bheem said taking another bite.

"But you don't have to eat it." Manvendra said.

"I do. Let it be proved to Duryodhan that for him to kill me is a feat quite impossible." Bheem said as he continued eating the food.

It was quite a sight to see him eat the food which was poisoned with Kalkut, so virulent that it would make the hair on the body stand up. But Bheem tolerated it.

But this was something Kunti couldn't tolerate, for it had been the third attempt to kill his son Bheem.

"That's it ! Sons, pack your things ! We're not going to live here anymore !" Kunti said angrily.

"But Kakishree-" "No Manvendra ! I cannot live in a place where my children are not safe !" Kunti said interrupting Manvendra.
