13. Arrested. (Contains fighting scenes, there will be a warning sign before it but if it's too much, you can skip and won't miss anything if you do skip.)

"Chalo yahan se, it's time for the new place." Karan said, a smirk on his face as he looked at Kanishka then his men.

Just as they left, Shreyas arrived at the warehouse.

It had been raining outside, which is why he was able to get to this warehouse. He had heard the rain sounds when he spoke to Kanishka.

But, Kanishka wasn't there. Neither was Karan.

"Where can they go?!"

Shubman, Abhay, Ishan, Aadhya, Anisha and Kashvi arrived behind him.

Kashvi saw Karan's phone lying on the table. "Guys, Karan's phone."

"What can the password be?" Aadhya asked, as they all thought about it.

"If we get into his phone, we'll find the new place, where he's taken Kanishka." Shreyas said.

The password was a word, not a number. "Try the name of his company, Ahuja Resorts." Anisha said, but it was wrong.

After one more try, they only had a chance left. "Try Kanishka."

"It worked!" Shreyas said, as he went through Karan's phone.

"Karan has another warehouse, and it's 10 minutes away from here." He added.

Stepping outside of the warehouse they were in, they got into the car and drove to the second warehouse.

Kanishka was now half-conscious.

"What did I tell you, Kanishka?" Karan said, his face just inches away from Kanishka.

Kanishka wasn't in the state to reply, she just stared at Karan then looked away. "Whether you accept me or not, you will always be mine." He added.

"We'll see how long that lasts, Karan Ahuja!" The normal, calm voice of Shreyas was now angry. 

Shubman, Abhay and Ishan were in the fight with Karan's men, while Karan was facing Shreyas.

Meanwhile, Aadhya, Anisha and Kashvi untied Kanishka's hands and helped her up, taking her to the side, giving her water.

Their eyes wandered over to the six new people who had just entered.

Shreyas, still fighting Karan saw them too.

Seeing Shreyas distracted, Karan took the chance to hit back. 

----- (Fight scene starts below)

Punching him on the face hard, Shreyas fell to the ground.

The three men out of the six walked up to Karan, and the two ladies took care of Shreyas, as he was bleeding.

"Ben Stokes, you won't escape now!" One of the men, yes, Virat Kohli, said, punching Karan, again and again.

Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul, standing next to Virat, said, "Vi, let it be. Let Shreyas handle him."

Karan just laughed, as Shreyas stood up. "What will this kid do to me? He fell down at one punch!"

Pushing Virat and Rohit to the side, Karan went to Kanishka. 

Taking her away from the care of her friends', he pulled her hair. "You know what now, lover-boy? I'm going to torture Kanishka in front of you," he glared at Shreyas, "in front of her brothers," he looked at Virat, Rohit, Shubman, Abhay, Ishan and Rahul, still fighting Karan's men, "and those six women there."

"We'll see about that!" Shreyas shouted as he sent another punch in Karan's face, and Karan let go of Kanishka, who was taken to a much safer corner by her friends'.

More of Karan's men had entered now, and Anushka, Ritika and Athiya decided they weren't going to stay quiet.

Shreyas fell again, being kicked and punched again and again. 

Anushka helped him up, "Agar tune aaj give up kiya, toh shayad bahar se zinda reh jayega,  magar andar se mar jayega hamesha ke liye."

Shreyas, standing up straighter, "Thank you, Anushka Bhabhi. Let's see how Karan faces the 'kid' now." He replied, air-quoting 'kid'.

Shreyas kicked Karan in the face, and Karan fell to Shreyas' feet.

Karan, with the idea of pushing Shreyas down, attempted the same, but Shreyas was too quick for him. 

Taking a stick that was on the floor, he hit Karan with it on the back.

"How dare you even touch Kanishka, huh?! Jab koi na bolta hai, toh uska matlab na hota hai! Aur jab ek ladki no bolti hai, toh uska matlab definitely no hota hai! School nahi gaya?!" Shreyas' voice roared, by hitting Karan he was letting out his anger.

Shreyas was hitting Karan, again and again, while Karan's men were unconscious on the floor.

Shubman, Virat, Rahul, Rohit, Ishan, and Abhay just watched. 

This was a new form of Shreyas, they were seeing. The mature Shreyas was in such anger that only seeing Karan in jail could help. 

Athiya had called the police, who finally arrived.

Separating Shreyas and Karan, the inspector said, "We're arresting you, Karan Ahuja. Physical abuse and torturing a girl."

Virat whispered to Shreyas, "You know you want to tell her, Shreyas. Just tell her."

Shreyas looked at Virat, and the others, who just nodded.

Aadhya whispered to Shubman, "Shubman, what's going on?"

"You'll see."

Shreyas walked up to Kanishka.

"Kanishka, I know this is not the best day, nor is this how I planned to tell you. Whether it was on-field or off-field, you've been my wall of support, and I've found myself in a confusion. I don't know how you feel, Kanishka, but I don't want to lose you. Ever. There's a connection, between me and you that I feel, and I can't not pay heed to that connection."

"Shrey..." her voice was a whisper.

Smiling at her, Shreyas continued, "I love you, Kanishka...Will you be...be my girlfriend?"

The place was silent, as Kanishka tried to process what she had just heard.

Her crush, had just asked her to be his girlfriend. She wanted to say yes, but how? She tried to speak, but it was all a whisper.

How was it?

Precap: Hurt.
