She felt nothing. 'Oh, Death really is painless', She thought.

She opened her eyes to meet Krishna again, but she met with closed eyes of a certain nervous prince. Not understanding anything, she saw something was on her.

As she looked down, she found herself draped in a Dhoti like cloth which was Blue in colour. She felt the guards leaving her hands. 'Oh, He just wrapped the cloth around me'.

Virat started speaking, "Don't you guys know that you should not hold an unarmed woman like that?", he reprimanded the guards and turned around to face the damsel and asked, " And you, Who are you? Why are you wearing these weird clothes? Why did you speak in  a weird language when you clearly know Sanskrit? And most of all, Why are you constantly screaming Vasudev's name?"

She looked down to see the weird clothes that she was wearing. A shirt, Blue jeans and a Denim jacket.  "Well, i don't know what you feel is weird in these clothes. I'm basically fully covered t-"

"I don't care", he cut her off. "Who are you?". 'wut tha!?!? Yo you are the one who asked that question and you freaking don't care!! Weird dude' . As she thought this, she heard a loud question being thrown at her again. "WHO ARE YOU? Are you the cause of whatever is happening in the town today? And, wh- wait, D- Did you do anything to Vasudev Krishna?"

"What, Hey just listen to me once. Let us talk, okay? We can mindlessly fight later" she retorted. The Prince felt Deja Vu for a moment before saying, "Speak, Explain Yourself".

"See, I'm not traitor, nor a threat to you. I'm just a girl who got scared of  unknown faces who sees me as a threat. And top of it all, I could never do anything to Your Vasudev Krishna", she said the last part quite sarcastically.

"Because I'm- uh- I-", she didn't know what to say. "Are his enemy who could not win against him?", the Prince asked doubtfully. "Oh what- no never. I'm actually better than that". She apologized to kanha in her mind before saying the last sentence, " I'm his sister".

The guards immediately backed off. Even if she felt bad for lying, she couldn't come up with a better lie to get out of the situation. "I'm sorry Princess", The guards expressed their regret almost immediately but were stopped by the Prince.

"How can I believe that whatever you are saying is true, woman?" He asked. "If you are really his sister l, why were you laying unconsi-"

"Hail the Prince!", a new guard entered the hall area where she came running to, and was caught and being interrogated. "The Dacoits are caught, but they have a leader who seems undefeatable. The king himself is fighting him and, unfortunately, he is losing the fight" the guard told in a breath, while catching for breath.

"What?!", Virat exclaimed. "I will go there. Guards, until then handle this lad-"

"Hey, I can defeat him", the maiden interrupted him. The Prince sighed and turned to her saying, "Look, this is not some game. My Father's life is at stake and I have to go, so respectfully abide by my orders. I give you my word that no harm will reach you".

"First of all, You are no one to give me orders. You are not my prince. I go by my individual choice. And second, This is the chance for me to prove that I'm Krishna's sister. I, definitely, will win that bastard of a dacoit leader", She explained.

"But", Virat's words were stuck in his throat as the lady in front of him appeared nothing like a Damsel in distress, but a Damsel who will cause distress in the hearts of enemies.

"Okay, go ahead", Virat said, defeatingly. Vaishnavi became elated and started to get in action "But prince-", the guards started to protest but cut off by a seemingly war-ready lady, "Oi, No buts. Just follow me" she said.

She was extremely excited about her first fight, a solo one, in her life. The stunt she was gonna pull now will be no less than a movie scene.

She went to the Dacoit leader, who was huge in his form, fighting the obviously rebellious king, and exclaimed loudly, "Oi, if you really have guts, fight me and not the old man"

Virat asked her if she needed any weapons, Which she denied curtly and pulled out her pocket knife.
The old man, Who was the King, turned around to see the person who dared to call him Old.

The leader started to show off his weapon, whipping it around, clearly indicating that he is master in using that weapon. Clearly, she had no scope of winning with just a pocket knife.

Everyone there were whispering that how can Prince Virat give the responsibility of taking down a monster like human to the obviously weak looking, weapon less maiden.

Vaishnavi just couldn't let her last chance to prove herself. But the people here were very demotivating to her. And on the top of that, the leader is scary as hell. She just tried to remember all the karate classes she attended.

'Oh I hope i remember them. Kanha please help me. People from this era are really against a woman doing anything gaah'

"Hahaha, A woman. I love your confidence. Okay try and kill me. Even before you get the thought of killing me, i would slash you into 37 pieces". And he started showing off his skills with the weapon he had.

She has had enough. She just dropped the knife she had with a boring expression and pulled out a gun and shot him all 6 times.

All of a sudden, it became very silent. Boom. Soon the people saw the monster of a leader falling down to his death. The girl just killed him with a weird looking weapon that no one in human history has ever seen, or they believed so.

"37 sounds quite specific, ain't it?" She went and said to his already dead body.

'Yaayy, I did it. I just pulled an INDIANA JONES '.
