Bharath : Mandavi ! 

Mandavi : yeah.

Bharath : aren't you tensed ?

Mandavi : of course I am tensed.

Bharath : I am sensing something. Definitely this night is not going to be easy.

Mandavi : who's that ? 

Bharath looked at the person who is peeping inside from the window.

Bharath : why you didn't close it ?

.........

Urmila is strolling on the terrace . She is constantly praying to the god. She suddenly heard a scream from Nila's room. She ran downstairs. Nila's paternal aunt is about to go inside.

Urmila : stop ! Don't go near.

Kausalya : what ? Why ?

Urmila : they went to forest for getting the potion. The witch is trying to divert us.

Nila banged herself to the wall. Nila covered her face with a translucent veil. Her attire is completely different.

( take a look at the book cover )

Kausalya : but look at her.

Kausalya is in the verge of tears.

Urmila : don't get emotional maa. We can't let her win.

Nila : maasi ! Why you hate me to this extent ? Don't you want to save me ? Dadi ? Will you let me die ?

Urmila : enough ! Stop your drama !

Nila moved towards the window and bound her hands to the grills and twisted them. She screamed loudly. Kausalya broke down with tears.  But Urmila didn't budge. Nila kept on doing the same thing but suddenly she fell on the floor. She started shivering.

........

Bhajarang walked towards the place about which ram told him. He saw a chest. It is locked. He opened with a stone. He saw the dagger and also potion. But before he could take them he saw a spirit.

Witch : do you think you can save them ? 

Bhajarang : of course. I am born for that. 

Bhajarang took the dagger and potion. He tucked them in the hem of his dhoti. He is above to go back. The witch closed the path by letting the stone's fall off.

Bhajarang smirked and started pulling a big boulder. The whole cave is shaking. As he removed the stone the stone's started collapsing. He came outside and saw Ram , Sitha and lakshman. They are looking at him astonished. 

Bhajrang : My job is done sir.

Ram : I am forever indebted to you.

Bhajarang gave the dagger and potion to him. As soon as Ram took the dagger the witch git freezed in her location.

Witch : oh ! Finally you got it into your hands. But how you are going to kill me ? I am already dead.

Ram smirked. He gave the potion to Lakshman. 

Ram : Sitha ! Lakshman ! Bhajarang ! Take the potion and go away. I'll stop her. Give it to nila.

Sitha : i'll stay with you.

Lakshman and  Bhajarang took the potion and went away.

Witch is keeping on chanting something. 

Ram : come ! Let's go.

Sitha followed ram. They moved deeper into the forest. 

Sitha : where are we going ?

Ram : to the place where her dead body is preserved.

Sitha : what ?

Ram : we don't have enough time.

Sitha isn't understanding anything but she followed him.

..........

2 hours later ,

Nila didn't budge from the place. Everyone stood outside the room and looked at her.

Lakshman : Urmila ! 

Urmila : lakshman ! 

Lakshman : give it to her immediately.

Urmila took the potion and went inside. She made nila to drink it. Nila slowly opened her eyes and saw urmila.

Nila : maasi ! 

Urmila hugged nila tightly. Kausalya came inside and hugged both of them.

............

Ram and sitha reached the deepest region of the forest.

They stopped near an another cave. Ram inserted the dagger into a loop and the door opened. As soon as they entered bats rushed out. Sitha held ram's hand tightly. The fire torches turned on all of sudden. 

Ram : what's the time ?

Sitha : huh ..  3:30am.

Ram walked inside and saw the preserved body. It is covered with multiple clothes. 

Ram : give your locket !

The witch came there and started destroying the cave.

Sitha held her locket in her hand. She didn't understand why her father made her wear that all the time. She didn't budge. Ram took it off her neck and pulled the stone . Witch gasped as she saw that. Ram placed that stone on the top of the box in which the body is placed. He started turning the spiral rings into a pattern. When he did that completely the box opened. When the witch is about to attack ram sitha came in middle.

Witch : no !

The witch held sitha by her hair and threatened ram. But ram didn't move a bit. He chanted something and took a fire torch into his hand. 

Witch : i'll kill her.

Sitha : Ram ! Don't mind her. We should save nila.

Ram : I will save everyone.

Ram walked towards the witch. The witch smiled as ram didn't move towards her body. He suddenly throwed the torch on her body and pulled Sitha away from her hands.

Witch screamed out loudly. Soon her spirit started and wearing off as her body burned. Ram and Sitha looked at the burning body by standing at the end. After her body burned completely. Sitha took her pendant's stone. 

Ram and Sitha walked outside by holding each-other's hand. By the time they came out they saw the sun rays which are beaming lightly. They looked at each other and smiled.

Ram : we did it ! 

Sitha : yes ! 

Ram : we did it together !
