In the shadow of a legendary feud, where ancient rivalries simmer, a hidden truth awaits. Beneath the surface of animosity and pride, a tangles web of emotions threatens to upend the fate of sworn enemies.
As the winds of destiny sweep them towards...
After resting for awhile they all decided to walk to find a better place to stay for the night. Hopefully tomorrow they will be able to find the exit.........or maybe just duryodhana since these Five wants to find Maaya Sarovar right, which has nothing to do with duryodhana? Fortunately, they even found place to stay inside a hollow tree.

"it is big but there are roots everywhere"
"at least we got place, now stop whining"
"Oh, how I wish it would had been the palace and I would immediately started the fight with you glutton"
"I can hear your thoughts so shut up"
"then you better know what I am thinking about you bastard"
The four couldn't help but to shake their head at duryodhana and bhima's bickering as they sat in two different corners while others also sat down since it already dark outside by now.
"we should light up fire in here so that wild animals won't come here" Sahadeva says immediately followed by a loud roar from outside as duryodhana mutter "perfect timing" making nakula laugh before he closed his mouth to stop laughing while Arjuna chuckle looking at the roots under their legs "we can cut them and then lit up the fire"
"the place is small and tree is hollow and dry, what if it caught fire?" Sahadeva asked making yudhishtir reply "the rain has happened yesterday so the tree should not be that dry. It would work if we do it cautiously" making everyone nod as they cut the root while bhima, arjuna and duryodhana just ripped it off the ground, bare handed.
Lighting up a small fire at the opening, they all sit inside with more cut roots in case the fire starts to die down, beside after sleeping at afternoon, their is no way they are going to sleep early.
-------------------------------------------------
They all sat in a comfortable silence, in the light of fire while wind blows slowly as nakula yawned a little before his eyes caught duryodhana sitting in the corner who is seems tired with his body looking weak - must be because of sickness, beside not to forget that duryodhana is also a warrior, so in the last of the day he knows how to survive.
It was normal until duryodhana decided to straighten his legs out a little more making his legs touch yudhishtir's ones who is sitting in the middle of bhima and duryodhana before duryodhana immediately took his legs back while looking away as yudhishtir look at him for a moment and by all this, nakula only got more confused about what is going on with them? First duryodhana and bhima & now duryodhana and yudhishtir!
Looking towards his other brothers in front, nakula found Sahadeva's head leaning to the inside of tree while he is looking outside with Arjuna beside him staring at the fire without blinking, seemingly lost in thoughts while bhima beside him in the other corner has his eyes closed unless he open it to check on the fire or others..........or more like on duryodhana when bhima hears a rustle and glance towards duryodhana.
Well, everyone is checking on duryodhana as he is injured and sick but for some reason, nakula has a hunch that there is something else also going on with bhima, duryodhana and yudhishtir, though not like he can just go and ask, he can only observe and think.
After a while almost everyone's eyes closed like they are sleeping and maybe they are too, by looking at their relaxed posture instead of alerted one which nakula of course have no problem as he look at his every brother before staring at duryodhana who is very much annoyed with his untied hair and bangs that are covering his eyes, time to time, must be because of heat.
"I hate this royalty" Nakula hears a mutter from duryodhana who is tying his hair with hand ornament making nakula flabbergasted as he look at duryodhana who is taking off almost all the ornaments from head to toe including kundal before sighing in relief making nakula chuckle lightly, which didn't step behind in taking duryodhana's attention.
"what?" Duryodhana asked silently as nakula shook his head before saying "just never knew, you hate the thing which makes everyone look good" while shrugging off his hair stylishly from shoulder while duryodhana look at him up and down before muttering "it doesn't look like in your case" making nakula glare at him.
"excuse you, do you even know about whom your are talking about? The most handsome man-"
"I walk with one daily.........actually two maybe, Ashwatthama is also famous for his looks" Duryodhana says while thinking to himself, cutting off nakula's sentence as he glanced at the red from anger, nakula who is trying his best not to yell.
"well, you are travelling with me from a week, incase you forgot" Nakula says gritting his teeth, confusing duryodhana who asked nakula with a light frown "what is that supposed to be mean?" making nakula reply "it means you should forget about them when you are not even with them" while duryodhana blinked before his face's neutral expression changed into bewilderment.
"what in the hell are you saying? Are you even Comprehending your own sentence?" Duryodhana asked, filled with annoyance while nakula shrugs saying "I know, you should understand that too" before leaning back while closing his eyes, leaving duryodhana to be perplexed.
"has he gone mad fully?" Duryodhana muttered to himself before looking away, at the fire which is now small, about to die down with his hope of getting out of this fore-
"you know we are always here for you duryodhana"
"before you, anyone have to face"
"you should trust yourself more suyo. As long as I am here, no one can harm you, it is this Radheya Vasusena Karna's promise. You are my best friend and it won't change in this life"
"you can always count on this Kripi Kumar by your side, mitr duryodhana. I am lucky to have you as my best friend"
Instead he is lucky one to have such best friends. No! He can't give up so easily, his best friends has taught him to always walk forward, never back off. He has friends, his brothers who are always ready to jump in if he git caught in danger or problem. He has no reason to give up so early. That's right, he has no reason for that. Just he wish, his heart would think same too.
