MEER VEERA:The Warrior's Untold Story

ThE aTTaCK

4 years later..
Kunwar Pratap Singh, Shakti Singh and Sagar had returned for a brief period to the palace.
Pratap and Veera would spend hours in the stable or roaming around the jungle or listening to their mothers disclosure on various topics.Pratap trained his little sister in archery,to make her from good to a perfect Archer.
The Maharana on the other side was deeply worried,since this time he had to send even his princess.He could not step down from his words but this was more difficult than he thought.
He believed he could convince Veera to stay with the four years time he got but days felt seconds as they passed.
Veera was adamant and the Rana believed she inherited the character from him and changing her mind was not possible.
Veera was happy because she could learn more but importantly stick to her words and stay with her brother.
The palace was busy preparing,as they were leaving early next morning to the gurukula.
Meer was more than excited and delighted that she was joining her brothers in all the fun,she had heard tons of their tales.She rolled around in bed, checked her things for the seventh time but just could not go to bed.
She decided to go and talk to her dadabhai Pratap about Guru Raghava and gurukulas principle's.
While walking towards Pratap's room,Veera heard whispers and felt that it was not only her in the royal corridor.She was training to be a warrior and had learnt that the first rule was to be alert,attentive and always observe her surroundings.
Nevertheless she started walking behaving that she heard nothing but instead of going straight into her brothers room,she went into Pratap's study which had access from both inside his room and from the corridor.
She got a book about the history of Rajputana and slowly but with steady steps she moved into Pratap's room,to see three tall men who had covered themselves with rugs.They were approaching Pratap with a piece of cloth,it was shining with the moon's light falling on it.One of them was going ahead swiftly whereas the others were standing around the bed.
Veera ran towards her brother,the two men having heard the sound of her anklets , realizing they had failed their mission ran towards the balcony but the one closest to Pratap dint get the quick move opportunity and Veera managed to grip his rug but he fled,in the panic of seeing the Princess he dropped the cloth he held.
Veera called Dadabhai and rushed forward,he was kind of awake but he sat up feeling dizzy.
He asked Veera,what she was up to late at night?Veera noticed that he was slightly affected by the substance on the cloth and brought up the topic for which she had actually come.
Pratap unable to sit upright told Veera to go back to bed and fell back to sleep.
She covered her nose with her veil and picked up the cloth next to the bed.She went straight to Rajyidhyaji,she woke him up and made him examine the cloth.
All along the process she had many thoughts in mind ,this was a very bad move Chotimaa,it will result in the change of your fate.
Even without knowing what was on the cloth,Veera had decided to tell everyone about Chotimaa's intention.The Rajyidhyaji pulled her out of thoughts by asking,where she found the piece of cloth? but Meer was in no position to give back stories about it,she jumped straight to the point and asked what is it Rajyidhyaji?
He knew about the Princess's temper and answered that the cloth was smeared with the paste of a poisionous herb,not found anywhere in Mewar or Rajputana.It was found in the northern parts of Bharatha,like Delhi or other colder regions around.
If someone smelt the cloth for more than a minute it would result in paralysis of their body and it would require only a miracle to open their eyes and move their body.
All the colour drained out of Veera's face,she went pale and was lost in her own world.Minutes later the Rajyidhyaji had to call Meer numerous times until everything registered in her brain.She thanked the Rajyidhyaji,took the cloth and left stating 'Jai Mewar'.
Veera was blank she could not imagine the outcome of the conspiracy.
It was the early third prahar and she started doing Ekalinganatheshwar's aarti and completed her prayers.
She went to the kitchen to tell her mother Jaiwantabai everything,she saw her Chotimaa and Sajamaa along with her mother discussing how they will spend time without their children around.
Seeing this Veera realized if she said anything now ,it would cause disturbances in the family.It suddenly flashed to Meer Veera that the Rajyidhyaji also said that we get that herb only in the northern parts,she thought that her Chotimaa could not get her hands in the Northern region.There was some other force with much greater intentions......
