The Birlas' - CHAKRAVYUH

Chapter - 20 : Manya JaiSingh

In The Hide - Out:

That look in Abhimanyu's eyes rendered her speechless and she just stood still, totally disarmed.

"Chale Bhai" Neil asked. 

"You stay back and keep her safe. Agar laga ki mujhe help ki zarurat hain, then jump right in." Abhimanyu ordered.

Neil didn't protest knowing fully well that his Bhaiyya can take care of those single handedly without breaking a sweat. Abhimanyu marched towards the goons and picked a glass bottle on his way. The woman was sweating in worry and Neil tried to comfort her, 

"He is a black belt in Taekwondo. There is nothing to fret." She was shocked initially but then looked a bit calmer than before.

Neil kept a watch on the goons' movement like a hawk and picked up a couple of glass bottles that were lying there. He took one and offered her one which she took without hesitation. They stealthily moved as closer as they could to the goons without attracting attention while Abhimanyu went all offensive with the goons. 

The goons were taken by surprise and before they knew what hit them, they were greeted with swift punches and strong kicks from Abhimanyu which forced them to collapse on the ground. Abhimanyu started opening the ropes that bound the girls immediately. 

Sensing no danger around, Neil and the woman, reached out to help free the girls. That was exactly when the police barged in. They took the goons under control and quickly checked for any impending danger. The Boss who happened to finally reach the hide-out saw the police vehicle and staged an escape. He broke the sim and threw it away to avoid any tracing back to him. 

As soon as the girls were freed, Roohi hugged her father with all the might left in her after the futile struggle. She was traumatized by everything that transpired. There were dull welts on her wrists and ankles where the ropes were tied. Roohi's face had fingerprints faintly imprinted on her cheeks and that unleashed the beast in Abhimanyu. He guided Roohi towards Neil and eyed him to handle her. 

Abhimanyu then walked towards the goons who were hand cuffed by the police already and started slapping them harshly. Everyone including the police were taken aback by the act. Abhimanyu looked unstoppable in his quest to avenge his daughter's pain. The police tried to pull him back forcedly, but he wasn't relenting. Neil hugged Roohi closer and turned around to spare her the gory sight.

On the other hand, Anya looked dishelved. Her state was a testament to the fight she put up bravely against those 3 goons. There were bruises on her forearms, welts on ankles and wrists, knees were scraped, and the corner of the lip was bleeding. She was treated rather harshly by those brutal hooligans. 

The woman tried her best to calm an agitated Anya down, but she only grew more agitated with every passing moment. She hugged Anya tightly in a bid to protect her from everything else but Anya was still in a trance and was putting up a fight. She was finding it tough to breathe and the woman yelled out loudly in agony looking at Anya's condition.
