Petrichor - Time Travel To Mahabharat Era

"Don't you dare say anything against my father!".

Hearing that, both Krishna and Vaishnavi looked at each other and raised their eyebrows, as if asking each other 'Did you say that?'. The beautiful voice was heard again, "I know he abandoned me, but he is still my father! And I can't stand anyone accusing him!", she said sobbing. They both turned towards the voice, only to find a woman dressed as a Princess, probably in her 20's, sitting facing the opposite direction. Krishna smiled looking at her, while Vaishnavi went towards her to Pacify the crying lady.

'Is that Draupadi? But what should I call her? Draupadi or Panchali? Ughhh! Wait! Oh yeah! I know what to call her".

"Krishnaa!", Vaishnavi called soothingly and kept her hand on the damsel's shoulder. Hearing her voice, the woman stopped weeping and turned her head slightly to look at her. "Haan!", Krishna answered her. She turned towards him and gave him an angry look and kept her index finger on her mouth, saying she's not calling him.

Krishna gave her a dramatic hurt look, and she turned back towards the Maiden. "Krishnaa! Look at me! I know it's hard to get ignored by our own father, for something we didn't even do intentionally!", she remembered how her father blamed her inability to save his son, Virat. "I've been there, Krishnaa! But it won't be the case with you! Don't worry! I and Kanha will take care of it!".

The woman finally turned towards her to look at them both. Her big eyes and cheeks were crimson red, due to crying continuously. Her plump lips were colourless, still radiating it's beauty. Her eyebrows reminded her of Arjun's bow and she had the perfect button nose which many people from her era die for. Her dark skin was glowing magnificently and she looked like a pure goddess lost in this impure human streets. "Damn!", these words left Vaishnavi's mouth without her permission. Never has she ever seen such a beauty, it was like she would just live looking at her, and die looking at her. She couldn't bear the sight of this innocent girl crying and wanted to eradicate all the pessimism around her.

The fire born Princess was looking at her with confused expression, but felt a weird sense of comfort from the foreign woman. Vaishnavi lifted panchali's face up by her chin gently, scanned her face and said, "Hmm! What a beautiful eyes! These eyes are supposed to see many beautiful things in Aryavart. Not to cry. Don't make this land sinful by dropping your precious tears on them!". Draupadi immediately hugged her tightly, crying her heart out.

'I'm so sorry Arjun! I just stole your dialogue you used on me when I was crying. Lol!'

"It's okay, Krishnaa! It's okay! Don't cry! I'll take care", she consoled the weeping goddess. Meanwhile, Krishna was looking at the bond they both immediately shared and smiled contently at them. "I- I just want him to accept me!", Draupadi hiccuped. Vaishnavi reassured her, "shh shh! I know I know! We will take care!".

Draupadi broke the hug and asked her, "How are you going to do that? And- And who are you guys?", she pointed at them both. Krishna and Vaishnavi shared a look and smiled at her.

"I and Ishwari, We are your friends, Sakhi! And we  don't mean it just like that, we are friends for life", Krishna told intently. Draupadi looked at the future girl, who nodded at her.

Drishtadyumn was getting ready to chop off Dron's head, who came there for peace making and bless his friend's newborns. But, a vengeance filled Drupad was not ready for any peace offering. Not surprised at his friends thinking, he voluntarily sat on the ground, giving access to the fire born prince for having his head. Just then, a mace came flying towards them and stopped mid-air, between Drupad and Dron. Everyone turned to their heads to see who that was, only to meet with the radiation of power the mace was emitting.

"Who's that? Guards, whoever that is, bind them!", Drupad ordered. As the guards were about to come and capture Krishna, Vaishnavi came in front of them from nowhere. "Ah Nah Nah! If you have to touch him, you have to cross me!". "Woman! Who are you? Don't waste our time!", the guards said dismissively.

She just let out a sarcastic chuckle and said, "Huh! Who am I? Well, let's put it like this. If he is lord Ram, I'm his Hanuman! Now, respectfully, Back off before I make you all regret your life decisions!!!". The guards did not want to waste their time on fighting a girl, so they ignored her and went past her. She shook her head at their stupidity and went in front of them again, as if she teleported there. Draupadi noticed that her speed was so fast that she moved places within she could even blink her eyes.

"Huh, Morons!", Vaishnavi smirked and moved her hand upwards, but didn't do anything to them. They were all looking at her confused and smirked back at her. She gave them a sweet smile and put her hand down with force, making them all fall to the ground. They couldn't understand what was happening to them, why were they falling without getting pushed. Draupadi was gawking at, how, about 50 soldiers, were seriously injured and were on the ground, just by her waving her hands.

"Tch!", she looked at them with a nasty expression and again waved both her hands, this time everyone literally moved at least twenty feet away, making a way for Draupadi to enter the palace. Her hair was falling on her face, so she just waved her head back, making her hair go back. She extended her hand and said, "Come princess! Let's go inside". Draupadi was skeptical, but trusted the foreign girl wholeheartedly and started to go inside. But soon, the reinforcement soldiers came in, and were in position to attack this super powered girl and some were aiming for Krishna. Draupadi noticed that and shouted, "Ishwari!! Watch out!", but Vaishnavi's focus was only on those, who were getting ready to attack Krishna.

She growled at them, "I told you, to even touch him, you have to cross me, You brainless humans!", She pointed her hands, which has a Purple glow now, towards them and shot, causing the soldiers to fall down with severe damage. At the same time, some soldiers attacked her with swords. But, to their shock, they couldn't even touch her. It was like some external force was stopping them from touching her. By now, about another 100 soldiers joined them.

She started to levitate up in the air and said loudly, "You guys really are brainless worms. I told you to back off, didn't I?". Draupadi felt like she was having a stroke at seeing what all this woman is able to do right now. The guards were perplexed to the core and started to stammer, "Who- Who are you? What kind of power is this, that you hold? Are you- Are you a witch?". She just laughed loudly at them, before saying, "What? Power? Hahah! I don't need to POSSESS any power, For, I AM THE POWER!!".
