AA: yeh ek ghanna jungle hai, or yahan 100 raastay hain, 100 ke 100 raastay galat hain

He said, she sat down near his feet and touched the soil beside him, he walked forward and she kicked him and he fell over his face.

N: toh galat hi sahi

She said and covered her face again and ran away in the jungle, he too stood up and ran behind her. They kept running and she crossed a strong branch by jumping and he did the same. Suddenly he reached her and held her arm, she faught him back.

AA: jungle mein unn maniyo'n ki nahi, jaan ki soch

He said and pulled her veil, she ran away again. He ran after her, she jumped from the slope, she landed on her toes and she stood up again and ran and he too did the same after her. After some distance, he caught her again and while fighting with each other, they fell down rolling over each other and she ended up landing on top of him. They shared a cold gaze, she pinned him to the floor.

N: iraada kya hai?

AA: qayamat

She sighed and got up again and ran away, he too stood up and began to run after her. Soon Nageshwari's speed had lessened and that caused the distance to decrease, he pulled her and her back collided with his rock hard chest. They shared a cold stare.

N: maloom tha cheelo'n ka dimaag kamar ke neeche hota hai

He pushed her and undid the shawl from her waist in a fast manner and once again, they ended up getting close.

AA: haar maan le nahi toh agla waar jaan le ga

N: tum khud apni jaan na le lo, mere liye

She hit him on his chest by her head and he stumbled backwards, she again began to run away from him, and once again he ran behind her, like this they covered a long distance. They came near a river and now as there was no way forward, they climbed the trees adjacent to each other which were actually joined. He reached upwards and she too reached, he jumped towards her and hung from the thick branch on which she was standing and as she took a step forward, her foot clashed by his hand and she fell from there but he held her hand in the nick of time. She climbed up by his help and reached the branch standing over it, he too climbed upwards and stood behind her with his dagger aimed at her neck. Her breathing became heavy and she slowly turned to him while he still had that dagger aimed at her.

N: maar do, yahan main reh nahi sakti, wapis main ja nahi paungi

He stared at her for a while and held her hair tightly from behind but then he left her and brought her other hand up and made her hold the dagger meanwhile he left the dagger. Now, she herself was aiming the dagger at her own neck. She looked at the dagger and then at him, meanwhile he kept staring at her. She brought her free hand close to the dagger and pressed her finger against it which made blood drip out of it. He looked at her finger and then at her.

(According to the condition, if even a drop of Aakesh's blood is shed, then he should move away his gaze from the nine naagmani forever and now that she shed her blood feeling defeated, now she is meant to be his, means that she surrendered herself fully to him)

Sometime later:

The head of the cheel (Khagendra) looked on as it was night and still Aakesh hadn't returned after his battle with Nageshwari. Meanwhile Aakesh sat on the soil and swore over it.

AA: naag maniyaan bakshi, ab aadi naagin meri.

Hriday who had gained his senses and had got to know about the battle plus the condition did fencing in air thinking of his childhood where he used to do sword fight with Nageshwari in childhood where he always lost and at the end, Nageshwari used to place the sword under his chin smilingly. He couldn't digest the fact that now aadi naagin who he loved since childhood and who was chosen for him, are no more each others' and today she had become of someone else. Meanwhile, Nageshwari came to Aakesh who was washing his hands in the well, she removed her shawl.

N: aadi naagin tumhari.

AA: pehle bandhan toh baandh lo

He said and walked past her. She looked on.

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

Aakesh sat by the shore. Khagendra came to him.

J: Aakesh ka toh waasta bas jang se tha, toh ye bandhan kaahay?

AA: rooh, baba... Jang jeet'ta toh kya paata? Tann larray toh tann mukk jaaye, rooh jurray, toh jurri reh jaaye.

Khagendra touched his face as a symbol of blessing. Meanwhile, Nageshwari sat with cheel kids, one of them made the cheel symbol on her forearm, the other one smeared her forehead with red color.

Later, Hriday came to Nageshwari, seeing him, she stood up and came to him.

N: Hriday? Yahan kiun?

HR: aadi naagin bhool gayi ke woh yahan kiun ayi hai?

N: ab Aakesh humari nau maniyo'n ki taraf dekhe ga bhi nahi, paigaam nahi mila kya?

HR: paigaam mila, adi naagin nahi mili, main aadi naagin ko saath le kar jaunga, Aakesh ko maar kar

He said and held her wrist firmly.

N: ab kuchh nahi ho sakta hai Hriday, main uski hogayi hoon

HR: par aadi naagin meri hai

He said holding her head joining his forehead with hers, she encircled her arm around his neck but then moved back.

N: kisi aur jahaan mein, shayad yahi likha tha

HR: baba ne mujhse Aakesh ka sarr laanay ko kaha hai

Nageshwari stumbled in shock.

N: toh phir saath mein mera bhi le jaana

HR: (emotionally) meri har dhadkan mein humesha aadi naagin ka hi naam ayega, us cheel ki dhadkan mein suna hai, kabhi apna naam? Cheelo'n ke toh jigar hotay hain, dil nahi, cheel hai Aakesh, jitni jang jeeti utnay bandhan, 100 dafay kiya hoga ye sab, 100 sahiba aur hongi uski, meri toh sirf ek...

N: ishq sirf mujhse kiya hai Aakesh ne

He was speechless.

HR: aadi naagin khush hai? (She nodded emotionally) hum bhi jeena seekh lein gay, bas baatein sooni ho jaayengi, (he caressed the bracelet in her wrist which he gave to her in childhood) ye haath se mat hatana aadi naagin

He said and left from there. She got emotional and tears fell from her eyes.
