"Few moments before

Saina entered her room shared with Maanvir and took a deep sigh. She stretched her arms and went towards the window to see the view. Maanvir went behind and rubbed his hand on her Sholders.

Maanvir: What happened darling?

Saina: {laying her head on his chest} Nothing just a little frustrated.

Maanvir: May I ask why?

Saina: {deep sigh} Vir I really wanted a vacation. You know how stressful it is to be a teacher!

Maanvir didn't reply he just wrapped his hand around her chest and back hugged her.

Maanvir: well, everyone's tired and resting right now, so do you want to go for a trek?

Saina: {with a bright smile} Yeah sure but where?

Maanvir: Well, I have heard about a beautiful water fall nearby.

Saina: {jumping with excitement} What are we waiting for let's go!

Maanvir saw her with a beautiful smile. They both left their rooms without informing anyone, being it an old habit. Upon reaching the same flower field, Saina held Maanvir's hands tightly and started running like a small child.

Maanvir: aree saina aram se mein gir jaunga. {Siana be careful or else I will fall down}

Saina: {catching her breath} Main tumhe kabhi nahi girne dungi {I will never let you fall down}

After a good run of half a kilometer they could see a stunning waterfall cascades gracefully from the heights of the hills, embraced by lush greenery, where the crystal-clear water dances with the wind, creating a mesmerizing symphony of sound.

Saina: {keeping her hand on her chest} It's so beautiful, Alanchal is really a beautiful place, I feel bad for the people living here.

Maanvir: {smiling} Come on Saina let's go down.

Maanvir took her hand in his and they went down, the path was little steep with green grass and trees. But the view was mesmerizing. It took 45 minutes for them reach down near the waterfall.

Maanvir: {smiling} Finally, we made it!

They spotted a beautiful rock nearby and decided to sit on it.

Saina: {with mischievous smile} Viru! I want to go in.

Maanvir: {smirking} Ok as you say soon to be Mrs. Singh.

Saina was a little confused and surprised to hear this Before she could comprehend anything, he swept her into his arms and leaped into the waterfall's embrace.

Saina: {shouting} THE WATER IS SO COLD.

Hearing her reaction, he swiftly carried her out of the waterfall's embrace and helped her stand on solid ground. Drenched from head to toe, water droplets cascading from every direction, it took her a moment to clear her eyes and blink them wide open. As she opened her eyes, she playfully punched him on his hips, eliciting a slight groan of mock pain from him. He chuckled softly, then gently pulled her closer by her waist, while she wrapped her arms around his neck, maintaining a slight gap between them.

Maanvir: {panting} feeling like vacation now?

Saina: {panting} of course and happy too.

Dravilla: Oh, really but not for long.

Upon hearing the demonic voice, they swiftly parted from each other, scanning their surroundings anxiously to locate the source, a shiver of fear coursing through their spines.

Dravilla: look up!

As the voice echoed once more, they instinctively gazed upward towards the azure sky, only to behold her ominous figure soaring amidst a swirl of black smoke and bats. Adorned in a black saree, her eyes glowed crimson, and her chilling smile sent shivers down their spines.

Saina: What do you want? Why are you here?

Dravilla: {smiling evilly} Didn't my dear sister talk already about me Saina?

Himanshu: Saina, Maanvir waha se zaldi hatoo. {Saina, Maanvir get away from there Now!}

As Dravilla heard his voice, she turned and as she did Adhiraj threw a pile of dust on her which was a holy sand given to them by Dhriti, but unfortunately it missed, making her angry.

Dravilla: {laughing} YOU MADE A HUGE MISTAKE.

Uttering those words, two additional hands materialized on her back, expanding in size and seizing them both with an unyielding grip.

Saina: {crying} Leave us alone, nooo, Maanvirrrr

Maanvir: Himanshu get help before it's too late...

She sprayed a black smoke onto their faces making them unconscious, she turned around to capture Himanshu and Adhiraj but in the nick of time both ran away and hide themselves. They were hiding near the waterfall behind a big rock, they saw her taking Saina and Maanvir inside the waterfall and disappeared. After hiding for 5 mins, they came out and were fear stricken and panting.

Adhiraj: {angrily} SHIT! What do we now?

Himanshu: {angrily} ITS JUST BECAUSE YOU MISSED!

Adhiraj: {angrily} OH, COME ON AS IF YOURE BULLS EYE.

Himanshu was already frustrated and angry and hearing his words made him lose his temper, he punched him real hard on his stomach making his growl in pain, Adhiraj held him through his collar and pushed to the ground. Suddenly it started raining and they started hearing evil laugh of dravilla and screams off Saina and Maanvir. They both ran towards the Ashram towards the Ahaan and Alishka and gave this terrifying news.

Ahaan: {slamming his hand on the wall} ARE YOU SERIOUS? ADI HOW COULD YOU MISS IT? AND WHY DID SAINA AND MAANVIR WENT ALONE THAT TOO FAR AWAY FROM AASHRAM? WERE THEY NOT WEARING THEIR OM?

Alishka: Ahaan, it's not time to fight, it's time to save, guys let's do this now only we got no time, I can hear Saina calling for help, we should go right now!
