Getting into the Red Sea, and passing through countries like - Sudan, Ethiopia and Yemen means encountering venom of the worst kind!

But there, is no other route, to avoid the trouble approaching the yacht. Sameer is hell scared for his family, while Naina is excited. 'Wow, I have always watched it in movies, but never got to experience it in real life. It will be so cool, to experience it now. I am so excited, to encounter the pirates!'

He glares at her, 'Nainu, this is not a joke! We are in danger. The pirates ship is coming straight towards us!'

'Sorry,' she apologises realising the gravity of the situation. 'Then, what are we supposed to do?'


He cups her face. 'Nainu, as long as I am here nothing will happen! But I need you to radio in for help! I taught you how to radio the coast guard, just do it! Say that we are in the Red-Sea, a pirate ship is coming towards us from the Gulf of Aden. They need to send help, URGENTLY!'

'Okay, I can do it!'

He hugs her tightly. 'And one more thing- PROMISE ME, no matter what happens, you and Saina remain in deck; in the cabin. Lock yourself inside there, whether you hear screaming or gunshots, YOU WILL NOT COME OUT!'

'I love you Sameer ji!'

'I love you too Nainu, now go fast!'

She goes from there and immediately radioed in to the coast guard, and luckily enough, it went through on the first try.

After getting the exact location from her, help is despatched. But the question is- WILL THEY GET HERE IN TIME?

She locks herself and a sleeping Saina in the cabin. She prays for their safety and hopes Saina; should not wake up.

Sameer is unable to turn the boat around, there is not enough time for it. Instead, he just puts the dead spot on the yacht.

The pirate ship is within minutes; next to "SAMAINA" and four people jumps onto the yacht as if they owns it.

The leader, a ghastly looking character, asks him something in an unknown language. When he doesn't answer he asks, 'You know English?'

'Yes!' He replies.

'You American?' The leader asked him.

'I am Indian!'

'You alone?'

'Yes I am alone.'

Saina opens her eyes and the moment she sees her mother, she calls out to her Papa.
