SwaRagini: A Magical Love Story-Episode 34

Episode 34

As soon as RagSan along with Richard and Jonas enter the passage,the door closes after five seconds on it’s own… They all turn and look at it…

Sanskar “Jonas,are we again supposed to sacrifice a bad habit for opening this door??”

Jonas “Of course… It’s the rule to go inside and out of Hecate through this way…”

Ragini “But what’s the need? We can enter the college through main gate as well… We only need to know where this place leads so that we could know who attacked us!”

Sanskar “Yeah right… And Ficus is a fool! He won’t get suspicious if we go out of the college gate without passing him and then all of a sudden,we appear outside the gate and tell him to let us in!!”

Richard “And moreover,you and your sister cannot be seen by the professors of the college… You both are on leave… And neither you and Rohan… Coz you are on out pass!”

Ragini smiles sheepishly…

Ragini “Sorry Sanskar… I forgot! I was-”

Sanskar “Thinking of Lakshya and so couldn’t figure out this! (Ragini nods) it’s ok… I understand… This happens… Let’s move ahead…”

They all nod and go ahead… Sanskar’s wand has lightened their way… Their voice echoes as they talk… They are walking since 15 minutes now…

Richard “Won’t Senior Gadodias get suspicious of you guys?”

Ragini “Dadi is again out for ministry work… Since those attacks,she is having too many visits to the ministry…”

Sanskar “And somewhere I feel,that these attacks and her visits are co-related… I don’t know why I often feel that our parents know something which they are hiding from us… And it concerns us… Else our forms wouldn’t be hidden!”

Ragini is in thoughts…

Jonas “Beware! The way is blocked ahead!”

They all look forward stunned… A big stone boulder blocks their way!”

Richard “Impossible! When this way was opened and I and senior Gadodia came to check here,this wasn’t here! And the way was all clear!”

Jonas “This means that someone put it here after the inspection so that they can’t move ahead!!”

Ragini “Sanskar… Can you try to push it??”

Sanskar nods… They both push the stone… They try hard but are unable to…

Richard “No use of manpower… Use your wands…”

Ragini nods “Accio Boulder..!!”

The stone moves a little bit… But it’s of no use!! This also goes in vain…

Sanskar and Ragini think…

Ragini “Jonas,can you go that side and ahead and check for us whether the way is clear or not??”

Jonas nods and passes through the stone to the other way…

Richard “Now what will you do??”

Sanskar and Ragini look at each other then at Richard… And suddenly they both exclaim together!!”

RagSan “Blast!!!!!”

They both look at each other and laugh giving high-five!!

Richard (getting a jerk due to sudden shock) “Were you two separated at the time of your birth?? You both are so similar!!!”

RagSan laugh…

Sanskar “Richard, move back… But before, get me a stone big enough!!”

Richard looks at him confusedly!

Ragini “Don’t think much Richard,I will accompany you to lift it… I know you can’t lift it… We will need something to light up after Sanskar will use the diminishing spell…”

Richard nods… He and Ragini move back in the passage to search a big stone like object… Till then Sanskar observes the stone… Ragini and Richard find something similar, Ragini carries it with her wand and takes it to Sanskar… She keeps it 5 feets away from the stone… She points her wand at it…

Ragini “Incendio..!!”

The fire lights and there is much light in the passage… Sanskar comes to stand beside her… He looks at his wand…

Sanskar “Nox..!!”

The light on the tip of his wand diminishes…

Sanskar “Ready??”

Ragini nods… They both point their wand at the stone and shout together…

RagSan “CONFRINGO…!!!”

The stone blasts into numerous small pieces… RagSan lie down covering their heads to save themselves from getting hurt… Richard also copies their action out of fear forgetting that he is a ghost and nothing can happen to him… He then realizes it and normalize himself…
Sanskar gets up and helps Ragini get up as well… They see that instead of clearing their way, the pieces are piled up there itself still blocking their way…
Jonas just then comes from the pile…

Jonas “Dude!! You all just cared me! If I would have been alive,I would have died! Oh BTW,after this pile, there’s a 100 metres way and then the exit of the passage…”

Richard “But how are you both going to cross it??”

Ragini looks at Sanskar… He understands and nods…

He sits on his one knee and turns into an eagle… Ragini smiles… He increases his size really bigger than the normal eagles… Richard and Jonas look in awe…
Sanskar flies to the stone and hits the upper portion of the pile with his claws… Much space is created there… So much that he can easily pass…
He comes back to Ragini and lands on the ground…

Ragini “Don’t make me fall!! (Sanskar nods) Richard, Jonas, follow us!!”

She sits on his back and encircles her arms around his neck… He takes his flight… Richard and Jonas follow them… They pass the stone pile… Sanskar keeps on flying moving towards the exit… They see an opening from where the light is coming in the passage… They all move towards it and get out of it…
Ragini gets down Sanskar… Sanskar changes back to his human form… They all look at the place and are shocked!!

RagSan are shocked seeing the place… They both look at each other and exclaim “KNOCK-TURN ALLEY!!!”

Richard “What else were you expecting?? Abode of clouds??”

Jonas “Or a chocolate house??”

Ragini remembers what happened the last time when she was in Knock-turn alley… Sweat beads form on her foreheads… That day they were almost over… Thanks to Professor Maheshwari!! He came on time and saved her and Lakshya… Still that arrogant creature was thankless!!
Sanskar looks at Ragini and understands the reason of the frown creases on her forehead… He taps her shoulder… She looks at him…

Sanskar “Hey!! Relax!! I know that currently you are in flashback and are thanking and cursing some people… But why to worry yourself?? Did you forgot who you are?? You are Ragini Gadodia!! And no trouble can defeat you in being troublesome!! And specially when you are with the great troublemaker Sanskar Maheshwari himself!!”

Ragini chuckles… She thanks Sanskar for making her mood light…

Ragini “Let us go ahead what clue this Knock-turn alley has stored for us!!”

Sanskar nods… They move ahead…

Sanskar “Richard,when this passage was opened,you all followed someone right?? Did you see the face??”

Richard “No we couldn’t see the face for the person was really fast and then apparated… But we did went to a bar&hotel…”

Ragini “Dadi!! And bar!! Impossible…”

Jonas “No… Even I was there… And they all went to the Bar!! The ghosts were asked to stand outside… But we out of curiosity were peeping… And we saw a man fully covered, even the face talking with Principal Gadodia… And suddenly even Professor Maheshwari appeared… He even hugged that man!!”

Sanskar “Dad!! Dad hugged the shawl man!!”

Ragini recalls how Durgaprasad came to save them in knock-turn alley…

Richard “Yeah… Even the bar man was present there… He saw everything…”

Ragini “Then I guess,he will give us the answer!!!”

RagSan and the ghosts go to the Bar…
Luckily the bar is empty…

Sanskar “Even Gopal is on our side today!! Let’s go Ragini, there’s our pray…!!”

Ragini “Richard,Jonas stay outside as usual… I don’t want that man to see you both and question your loyalty towards Hecate!!”

Richard and Jonas nod… RagSan enter the place… They see the bar man little injured…

The bar man “How may I help you??”

Sanskar “Just by providing some information…”

The bar man gets worried “Who are you all??? What do you want??”

Ragini “Stop throwing muggle dilouges!!! Just answer what we want to know… And don’t worry… We won’t harm you!!”

Sanskar “I am Sanskar Maheshwari… VP Annapurna Maheshwari and Professor Durgaprasad Maheshwari’s son!! And she is Ragini Gadodia… Grand daughter of Principal Parvati Gadodia and Daughter of Professor Shekhar Gadodia and Professor Sharmistha Gadodia…!!”

The bar man relaxes “Why you both are standing?? Sit down plz… What you both want to know??”

Ragini “Whom did our parents came to meet here??”

Bar man “Honestly,even I don’t know,for I never saw his face… But I can say that he was really important for your parents made a frequent visit here…”

Sanskar “And Dad?? Why he used to come here??”

Bar man “He was the most frequent visitor… He loved that man very much… Any slightest inconvenience in his stay and he used to literally screw us!!”

Ragini “That means he was really special!! Where is that man?? Can we meet him??”

Bar man “No you can’t… He left two days ago!!”

Sanskar “What!!! He left?? Why?? Suddenly?? Do you know where he went??”

Bar man “No I don’t… Even I felt strange that a man who stayed so long here, suddenly left!!”

Ragini “Yeah… I understand… One month is really a long time…”

Bar man (amazed) “One month!!! No Ma’am!! You are mistaken… He was staying here as a paying guest for 13 long years!!!”

RagSan (getting the biggest shock till date) “WHAT!!!! THIRTEEN YEARS…!!!!”

They look at each other bewildered…

Sanskar “And you didn’t saw his face?? Not even for once??”

Bar man “He only used to come out of his room when your parents came to meet him… Else he never came out…”

RagSan are still in shock…

Ragini “Ok… Thank you for sharing all these… Anything more you know??”

The bar man shakes his head… RagSan pass a formal smile and turn to leave when suddenly the bar man calls them… They turn to look at him…

Bar man ” One thing I can tell you both… These wounds you are seeing?? Two days ago,just after that man left this hotel, three people came in Black silhouetted hoodies… Their faces were properly covered… They also inquired me about the man… When I told them he left,they hit me hard thinking me to be lying… One of them Even used the cruciatus curse on me… When I became unconscious,they left me here itself…”

Sanskar “Are you ok now?? (The man nods) can you tell us something about your attackers??”

The bar man “From their voices,I could make out… Two women and one man!! And one of them,the woman had exactly same wand as that of you Ma’am…”

RagSan get another shock of their lives… This day was giving shocks of another level… They both thank the bar man and come out of the bar… The ghosts were waiting for them…

Sanskar “Only our parents can answer our further questions now… And now I think it’s time to confront them!!”

Ragini (nods) “Sanskar (he looks at her) can I ask you something?? Will you answer me?? (Sanskar nods) why Lakshya behaves indifferent with his Dad??”

Sanskar’s action stiffens… He never expected this question from her… Ragini noticed the distance between DP and Lakshya… She indeed understands him well and has started to know him…

Sanskar (sighs) “I can answer this question Ragini for I know the reason… But I won’t… Coz it’s Lucky’s secret… And I am sure… He will never hide anything from you… You should better ask him… And I am having a feeling that today you will get all your Answers…”

Ragini nods… They both along with the ghosts again go to the passage…

***************
***************

SwaRo along with Nick and Richie are heading towards North-Eastern side of the forest… Rohan is in trance… While the other three are busy chuckling…
Rohan glares them…

Swara (laughing) “Who would say, the Rohan Mehta, the great time viewer, is afraid of spider!!”

Rohan “Even you guys were afraid… And Nick and Richie,you literally forgot out of fear that you are ghosts and spiders can’t harm you!!!”

Nick (mimicking) “Swara!!!! Save me!!!! Save me Swara!! Spiders!!! Aaaaaaahhhhh!!! God I promise I will never bother lucky along with Sanskar from now on!!! Plz save me from these spiders!!!”

Swara and Nick again burst into laughter… Rohan glares them and fumes… He goes into flash back…

FB SHOWS…

Rohan along with Nick and Swara was heading West of the forest… They entered deeper into the forest to inspect some hideout…

Rohan “Why do I feel this place is a little creepy??”

Swara “What creepy you are finding here? It’s so cool… Green Green everywhere… Beautiful roots of the tree are hanging!! These green creepers and the beautiful shining flowers… Nature and Magic are at it’s best together!!”

Richie “Wow!! You describe things really beautifully… Where do you learnt that from??”

Swara “When I used to believe that I am a muggle, then I wanted to be a literaturer..!! I guess I still have those traces…”

Nick “What do you want to be now?”

Swara “I don’t know… But if my potions improves till final year, then I will try for Auror…”

Rohan “Hey!! Same pinch!! Even I want to be an Auror!! And if not Auror, then definitely,I want to work in the ministry…”

Swara “I thought you wanted to be the Charms Professor after Dad retires…”

Rohan “Yes, I do, but the thing is he won’t retire soon and till that I can’t sit unemployed else Aisha won’t marry me… And I don’t want to die bachelor… So a back up option is best… And I can be a Professor while working for ministry…”

Richie “Wow Mr. Handsome… You are well prepared for the future… I wish I met you before dying..!! Or I would have been alive today..!!”

Nicky “Hello..!!!! I am still here!!”

Richie “Oh stop being jealous Nicky! I have lived and died with you… Even after dying, I am with you… Aren’t you satisfied?? I am just praising Rohan that doesn’t mean I am leaving you… You are above all for me…”

Nick is speechless and bowled!!

Swara “Awww!! So cute!! Fulfilling promises even after death..!!”

Rohan feels something crawling on his back… He ignores it for sometime but the crawling feeling continues…

Rohan “Can anyone just check what’s on my back? I am having a constant feeling that something’s there…”

Swara goes behind him to check…

Swara “Ah! Nothing to worry about… It’s just a spider!!”

Rohan freezes at his spot… He is sweating…
Swara brushes her hand on his back and moves it away…

Rohan “Di— Did you—- mo—moved that away??”

Swara “Yeah,I did… What happened to you? You ok??”

Rohan (relaxing) “Yeah! Nothing to worry… Let’s go ahead!!”

Swara and Nick look at him suspiciously…
Rohan looks all around while walking… The others are noticing his actions… Suddenly, Rohan has a feeling of being watched… Constantly… Not just one or two… Numerous pairs of eyes were watching them… The eeriness of the place was increasing..!!

Rohan “I don’t know why, this place doesn’t seem right!!”

What he witnesses next was making his heartbeat rapid and Blood pressure low… His biggest fear!! The leaf-strewn ground was now swarming with spiders..!! Not few but uncountable in numbers…

Swara “I agree with Rohan now…”

Nick “And I guess,I know why…”

They both look at him and see that he and Richie are looking forward intensely… They followed their gaze to witness a vast hollow… A hollow that had been cleared of trees… A large,very large cob web was woven blocking the way ahead…!!
More of spiders started appearing… And they didn’t seem ordinary… Not tiny spiders like those surging over the leaves below… Spiders the size of cart-horses, eight-eyed, eight-legged, black, hairy, gigantic..!!!
And from the middle of the misty, domed web, a spider the size of a small elephant emerged, very slowly… There was gray in the black of his body and legs, and each of the eyes on his ugly, pincered head was milky white… It looked old but fierce!!
SwaRo and Ghosts witness the old spider opening it’s mouth wide showcasing it’s stinking creepy mouth and teeth… The humans and the ghosts realized that they are in a real big trouble… Rohan was growing restless… He opened his mouth but no voice was coming… He tried and finally succeeded… Even Swara screamed at the same time…

SwaRo “Aaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!!! Run!!!!!!!!”

The Ghosts hastily nod and the four of them turn around to escape for their lives but a Feet away, towering above them, was a solid wall of spiders, clicking, their many eyes gleaming in their ugly black heads…

Rohan looks at Swara “Swara!!!! Save me!!!! Save me Swara!! Spiders!!! Aaaaaaahhhhh!!! God I promise I will never bother lucky along with Sanskar from now on!!! Plz save me from these spiders!!!”

Nick “Swara,think something fast!! They cannot be fought with your wands,they are so many in number!! Think!!”

Swara tries to think of a solution… She also panics when she sees the spiders approaching them… She then recalls that in school, they were taught that spiders are afraid of snakes… And she is an Animagi snake!!!
She instantly sits on her knees and transforms into the snake increasing her size really big!! Even bigger than the old spider!!
The spiders get afraid suddenly seeing a HUGE snake in front of them… Swara was trying her best to act as a real snake as she shows her fangs and attempts to bite the spiders… As she moves towards them, they move away… She turns to look behind… The giant old spider had already vanished and the other large and small spiders weren’t even daring to follow her… She gets her idea… She clutches Rohan in her tail and moves to the opposite direction to where they were heading before… Nick and Richie follow them… The spiders weren’t following them… After ensuring that they are finally out of danger now, Swara left Rohan and reduces her size to normal… She comes back in her human form…

FB ENDS…

A chill runs down his spine when he recalls the that creepy encounter…

Rohan “How much more we have to walk??”

Nick “Sssshhhh!! I guess,I hear some voices… Dude,I think we got our destination…”

Richie “Swara,Rohan… Follow the instructions…!! Rohan,after vanishing,don’t forget to keep a track of us… We will get the necessary information and will meet at the entrance of the forest exactly after in half and hour…”

They both nod… Swara turns into a snake and reduces her size really small… Nick and Richie also reduce their size… Rohan takes out his wand and points it at himself…

Rohan “Obsoletio..!!”

Rohan becomes invisible… They all move in the direction of the voice and see a cave… It’s lighted… They hear voices…

A woman “What were you thinking?? You couldn’t even handle a map properly??”

A man “You were there with me!! You saw they saw us,and we had to run to save our secret!! Tell me would I have cared about map or us??”

A third woman voice “Stop arguing both of you… Think of a solution,we are stucked in this Forest since yesterday!!”

They all peep inside the cave and are shocked!!!
Rohan feels groundless beneath his feet… Was he dreaming or this was for real?? The man and woman who were arguing were none other than Ramprasad and Sujata!! His own biological parents!! Alive and fine… Absolutely fine… No scars,no wounds nothing… But!! Here!! Like this!! In this attire!! In this situation!!! This all indicates only one thing… THEY ARE THE INTRUDERS!! THEY ARE THE ONES WHO ATTACKED RAGLAK!! NOT ONCE BUT TWICE!! How could they…??!!! Where were they all these years?? Why were they hiding?? Why they didn’t tried to contact him or the Maheshwaris? They were friends right?? Then why?? There are so many questions… And he wanted the answers… But their words made him stop in his tracks…

Sujata “No Jaan Di… Plz let me scold this man!! We entered Hecate and took shelter in forbidden forest with such difficulty only because of that map!! But this man,lost that was well!!”

Ramprasad “Have you gone mad you crazy woman?? Why would I do it deliberately?? Why would I want to hamper our dream plan of seeking revenge from Gadodias and Maheshwaris?? Ragini and Lakshya are our biggest Target and enemies… We are here to seek our revenge… And we will at any cost!! And for that we don’t need any map! Our sharp minds are enough!!!”

Swara fumes and gets furious hearing them speaking ill of her sister her love!! She thinks to attack them but recalls Nick’s and Richie’s warning… She tries to see the third woman’s face but she is turning her back and is standing in dark… She is unable to see her except for her wand…. Which Swara is shocked to acknowledge that it’s same as Ragini’s and Lakshya’s!!! The third wand possesor was not a victim!! She was the attacker herself!! RagLak must know this!! And so they have to safely go out from there…

Rohan is not able to believe his eyes and ears… Was this all real… He stumbles in his steps and moves back… He steps upon a dry stick and it breaks making a crack sound… Sujata and Ramprasad get alert…

Ramprasad “Who is there??”

Swara and the ghosts panic… Rohan is about to surrender and confront him when Aisha’s face flashes in front of him!! His promise to her… His parents are bad! They want to kill his younger brother… His Lakshya!! And his love Ragini!! No he won’t let that happen… They must know it and for that he has to go out of here safely… He stands still in his place without making any noise…

Ramprasad and Sujata run out of the cave to check… Rohan gets emotional seeing his parents but then recalls their words… He stiffens…
Swara in order to handle the situation increases her size and crawls away from front of them like a real normal snake!!
Ramprasad and Sujata see her and thinking it to be the snake, they both guess that it must be the snake’s sound… They relax and go inside… Whereas Rohan, Swara and the ghosts run out of the forest straight till the entrance… They didn’t stopped in the middle….
As soon as they reach the decided place, they all come back to their original form…
Rohan falls and sits crying…. Swara looks at him and consoles him…

Swara “I know you are worried about Lakshya and Ragini… Even I am… But see… We have to be strong… wE have to inform them… We will save them together… We will win!!”

Rohan (crying bitterly) “Whoever may win Swara, the one who looses will always be me!!”

Swara “What do you mean??”

Rohan “They both were my parents!!!!!!”

Swara,Nick and Richie get shocked…

Rohan “I am ashamed to call them my parents!! All these years, I believed that they died!! But when I finally found them, I find them conspiring against us!!! They want to kill my younger brother!! My Lucky!! No!! This won’t happen!! Coz before harming RagLak, they have to face me!!!”

Swara hugs him to console him… Rohan is still crying…

****************
****************

LakSha along with the ghost brothers are in Annapurna’s cabin…

Lakshya “Ok… So before we start, we have to make sure that Mom or anyone do not come to this cabin… Though she will make sure that no one disturbs me but she will definitely come to check upon me after some time…”

Aisha “So, let us assume that we have limited time only… Say…. Half an hour! But we need someone to keep a tap outside as well…”

Alan “Why do you think we are here? One of us will be outside roaming in this whole corridor… And no one will doubt as well as that’s our work…”

Alex “Perfect bro… Infact, I think you should guard outside… Coz according to my business like reputation and my arrogant behaviour, there’s possiblity of doubts…”

Lakshya “Alex’s right… Alan you have to be outside and guard the corridor… Any suspicious or troublesome activity and you will report us immediately… Alright??”

Alan nods and passes through the door to get upon his work…

Aisha “I will just scan for some hidden things…”

Lakshya nods and Aisha looks all around…
Lakshya goes to the cabinet… Alex follows him…

Lakshya (pointing his wand) “Alohomora..!!”

The cabinet unlocks… He opens it and starts checking the documents kept in there…

Alex “Hey,can I ask you something??”

Lakshya (continuing his work and not looking at him) “Go ahead…”

Alex “Would you mind if I take your girlfriend on a date??”

Lakshya (shocked as he looks at him) “What!!! Are you crazy?? Listen,stay away from Ragini..!!!”

Aisha looks at him as he shouts… She chuckles hearing him and guesses the situation…

Alex “Relax dude… Ok fine… There’s no need to shout..!!”

Lakshya “Instead of concentrating on Ragini,better go and check all the cabinets… And whichever cabinet contains documents,inform us..!! We don’t have time to open and lock each and every cabinet… Mom would enter here any moment and we can’t even stop her from entering her own cabin…”

Alex nods and goes upon his work… Aisha comes to Lakshya…

Aisha “No…!! Not any evident hidden place is there… Let me help you out in checking the documents…”

Lakshya “Yeah… Plz help me out… The time is less and the work is hell more…!!”

Aisha and Lakshya continue checking out the forms… They get nothing from the first cabinet… They look at each other…

Aisha “Wait… Lock it before you move to other one else it will be a problem later on!! (Lakshya nods… She points her wand at the lock) Aloho Colloportus..!!”

The cabinet locks… They move on to another cabinet… They continue their work… But are still without any success…
They move to the third cabinet…

Lakshya “This is the cabinet from which Mom took out the forms on the registration day… And I saw that other forms were also kept there…!!”

Aisha “We should check this once more… Who knows that the forms are still kept there and if not,we may get a clue…!!”

Lakshya nods… They start checking that cabinet as well… Still… They are unable to understand this… All the forms were there except the six forms… The six forms of the Six Striking Stunners…

Lakshya (frustrated) “Again!!! This time also!! Our forms aren’t here!! How the heck is this possible!!!!”

Aisha (Banging the forms back into the cabinet) “Even I don’t understand that!!! How is that possible!!!! All the forms are here… Each and every form! Just ours is not there!! Why???”

Alex comes just then…

Alex “Lakshya!!! Aisha!!! That old cabinet over there has a locker and I read Sanskar’s name on the top sheet!!”

LakSha look at him amazed!!!

Lakshya “Alex, you are the best!!!”

Alex “That means I can take Ragini on a date??”

Lakshya glares him and he turns silent!!

Aisha “Which one?? Show me!!”

Alex shows them an old iron cupboard… The both go there… Aisha tries to open it by her wand but it doesn’t open… Lakshya also tries but without success…

Alex “Now what??”

Aisha “VP Maheshwari has made sure that we do not open this cupboard… This is a special type of cupboard which can be opened just by special keys…”

Lakshya “You said keys???”

Aisha looks at him and nods…

Aisha “Lucky,do you know something??”

Lakshya “I guess I know… The first cabinet had a box,and it contained numerous keys… I was in a fix when I saw them coz magical world never really requires keys… But then now I get it…”

Aisha goes to the first cabinet that Lakshya searched… She doesn’t find the box… Lakshya goes to her and helps her out… They keep the key box on the table and open it… There are not just one but hundreds of keys in that box…

Aisha “It’s impossible to find the right key!!”

Lakshya “Accio old cupboard key!!!”

The box vibrates but nothing happens… Lakshya looks on disappointedly…

Alex “What you thought?? Will it be a child’s play?? Say the summoning charm and the key is here!! Dude,this cupboard and it’s lock is special… Didn’t you notice that it didn’t open with magic… You have to use your intelligence to find the right keys and unlock the cupboard…”

Lakshya and Aisha look at each other…

Aisha “What you said?? Keys?? And you said that inside this cupboard, there’s a locker in which the forms are kept..!!”

Lakshya “That means,it isn’t single key but a pair!! So first,we have to separate all the keys which are in pair…!!”

Alex smiles at their intelligence… LakSha continue their work… After it’s done, there’s still a whole lot of pairs of keys in front of them…

Lakshya “I think rest all the keys are useless and are kept here just to confuse us!!!”

Aisha “Of course Lucky… And now my suspicion is getting stronger… There’s no ordinary reason as to why our forms are being hidden from us… There’s much to matter than to our eyes!!”

Lakshya nods…

Alex “Jesus!! You guys need clues everytime!! Use your grey matter!! Every lock and it’s key have connection and similarity… That’s why they complete each other!!”

LakSha look at each other… They both go and inspect the lock on the cabinet… They observe it closely and keenly…

Aisha “I got it!!!”

Lakshya “Help me to get that as well!!”

Aisha “Lucky!! There are swords imprinted on this key…”

Lakshya looks even more carefully at the lock… He sees the impression of two swords criss crossing each other…

Lakshya “And I guess I know which key belongs to it..!! (He goes to the table and bring a pair of keys… Aisha looks at them fascinatedly… The keys are in the shape of swords only that it had teeth to unlock the lock!!) I know, while separating the pairs from the single ones, it’s design fascinated me as well!!”

Aisha takes the keys and prays to Gopal before putting it in the lock…
She enters the lock with the key… Lakshya and Alex look on eagerly…
Their heartbeat increases (except Alex’s) as she turns the key inside the lock… The lock clicks and it opens…

Lakshya and Aisha exclaim happily of their success and hug each other… Alex also gets very happy and goes to them to hug them but passes through them… He smiles sheepishly… Then all the three burst into laughter…

Lakshya “Ok guys… Finish the with soon… Mom could be here anytime…”

Aisha nods and opens the cupboard… She then unlocks the locker and takes out their forms…
There it is!! Finally!! The mystery of lost and found forms comes to an end… The forms are there right in their hands…

Alex “I still don’t understand,what was the need to keep your forms in such a protection!!”

Lakshya “Whatever may be the reason, it’s really big!! And we have to find that out as well…”

Aisha nods and she studies the form… She looks into each column carefully to find some clue… Something clicks her mind…

Aisha “Lakshya,get me other forms as well!!”

Lakshya nods and gets the other forms as well!! Aisha hastily checks the forms… She the looks at their forms and other forms…

Aisha “OMG!!! This was the reason!!!”

Lakshya “What???”

Aisha forwards him both the category of forms…

Aisha “Study them carefully Lakshya!!”

Lakshya looks at both the categories… He also gets shocked reading them… He looks at her bewildered… She nods worriedly…

Aisha “The speciality column in other’s forms are empty except for these six forms!!! Only we six Currently have special qualities in us and that’s why our forms were kept hidden!!”

Lakshya “Our whole life,we used to believe that Bhai being Animagi and Rohan Bhai being time viewer was a secret but it wasn’t!! They… Our parents knew everything!!! From the beginning!! Even about you Swara and Ragini!!”

Aisha copies the forms and goes to keep the original ones in the locker… But her gaze falls upon other documents… Out of curiosity,she takes them out and shows them to Lakshya…

Aisha “There are more documents in that locker… May be it can help us!!”

Lakshya takes them…. A photo falls down from it!! Aisha bends to pick it up… She sees the pic and is shocked!!!
Lakshya and Alex notice her expressions… They are even more shocked when tears start flowing from her eyes…

Lakshya “Aisha!!! What happened??? Why are you crying?? Tell me??”

Aisha shows him the picture… He looks at it… His parents, Ragini’s Parents, Janki, Sujata and Ramprasad along with two other people are in front row and more 21 people are standing behind them…

Aisha “The two people on the left hand side are… They are my parents!!!”

Lakshya looks at her shocked!! Aisha’s parents along with his and Ragini’s parents… And… Them as well!! Ramprasad and Sujata Mehta!! Rohan’s parents!!! He looks closely at their faces…

They are Shashwat Mehta and Pavitra Mehta **(Aradhya’s parents from the serial Krishnadasi… The ones who played the role of Shashwat Vidyadhar Rao and Pavitra Shashwat Rao)**

Lakshya looks at Aisha and the picture turn wise… He is not able to believe his own eyes…
There Aisha is completely broken!! She is continuously tearing… And Lakshya… He again went back to dreadful memory… A memory that changed his and Durgaprasad’s relation forever… A memory which only he, Sanskar and his parents are aware of! He never shared it with his Rohan! He didn’t wanted him to loose his parents again whom he found in Annapurna and Durgaprasad… Aisha’s voice made him come out of his thoughts…

Aisha “All these years,I was striving to find a proof of my parents… The proof that they did exist!! That they are real and not imaginary!! That I am Aisha Shashwat Mehta!! Daughter of Shashwat Mehta and Pavitra Mehta!! But wherever I used to go,I got only failure!! And on this quest of mine,I met Rohan,who made me believe that I am also made to love!! This was what he was talking about… He was right… Today I solved my missions!! VP Maheshwari, Professor Maheshwari, Professors Gadodia, everyone knows my parents… Now I can know about them… But if they know them,then they must be knowing me as well!! But why did they hid it from me!! Why!!!????”

Lakshya “Aisha… Do you see these two people beside your parents?? (She looks at him and nods) They are Rohan Bhai’s parents!!”

Aisha looks at him shocked… And then again at the pic!!

Aisha “It means that… Our parents also knew each other from before!! No wonder destiny made us meet each other!! He is meant to complete me!! But Lakshya, still,the Professors!! They hid it from me… They hid about my parents from me!! I want my answers!! I want to know what happened to them??? Are they even alive or not?? I want to know!!!!!!”

She is again crying… Lakshya tries to console her… Alex feels helpless and sad that he can’t do anything to console Aisha!!
Just then Alan enters the cabin hastily…

Alan “Quick!! Be quick!! VP Maheshwari is coming this way!!”

Lakshya (cupping Aisha’s face) “Aisha!! Plz Aisha… We have almost completed our mission… I assure you… We will together confront them… But for now plz control your emotions… Our team has the right to know about all this!! Plz…”

Aisha nods… But tears are still flowing over her cheeks… Alan looks at Alex… He signs him that he will inform him later on… He nods…
LakSha clear all the mess… Aisha copies the picture and along with other documents becomes invisible… Alan and Alex reduce their size and take their place in Lakshya’s pocket… Lakshya lies down on the couch kept in the cabin and pretends to sleep… As the door opens,he pretends that his sleep is disturbed and sits down as he sees Annapurna coming in… She looks all around the cabin and everything is seemingly normal… She then sits beside Lakshya and asks about his health… Aisha takes her chance and sneaks out of the room before she gets caught…

The spider scene is copied from a very famous novel Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets… Hence, the spider sequence idea and description credit goes to one and only J.K. Rowling…
