Maharani Ambika and Yuvraj Aditya were extremely upset about Kshitij's decision.

"Pitashree, how could you do this ?" Aditya asked.

"If I didn't then there would have been a war." Maharaj said as tears streamed down his eyes.

"Pitashree if you're so afraid then I will fight the battle against them even if I have to stand alone." Aditya said.

"So the great Saurashtra-naresh who spent most of his life in the battle field is afraid of wars now ?" Maharani scoffed.

"Those were different times, after having Sagarika I realized how beautiful life can be and you can't just take it away." Maharaj said.

"So you will ruin her life ?" Aditya asked.

"I had no choice." Maharaj said as few tears fell from his eyes.

"You didn't even think about consulting us first ? She is my daughter too and he is her brother." Ambika said.

"Duryodhan gave me no time." Kshitij said.

"What kind of a husband he is going to be when he threatens to wage a war if Sagarika doesn't marry him....I can only imagine what he will do to her if she disobeys him...." Ambika felt shivers down her spine.

"I have committed such a crime ! I have ruined my own daughter's life..." Kshitij sobbed.

"Worry not Mitra !" Someone said. They turned around and saw Drupad coming with Drishtadyumn and Shikhandi.

"Sagarika is more than a daughter to me, that little girl means the world to me. And I will not let that wicked Duryodhan marry her at any cost." Drupad said.

"Yes Maharaj Kshitij worry not. Sagarika is like our little sister and at no cost we will let that Duryodhan take away her innocence." Drishtadyumn said.

"And let that Duryodhan wage a war ! My brother was born to kill Dronacharya, while I was born to kill Bhism. He cannot do any harm to Saurashtra with us alive." Shikhandi said.

"There is no need of war." Sagarika said coming towards them.

"What are saying Sagarika ?" Aditya asked.

"I don't want a single drop of blood to spill because I denied to marry." Sagarika said.

"Putri don't fret, you don't have to marry him." Drupad said.

"I have already said yes Tatshree Drupad, I don't want any harm to befall my family because of me. If its written in my destiny that I have to marry Duryodhan then no one can change it and if its not written then Narayan himself won't let us get married." Sagarika said.

The Pandavas were worried sick about Sagarika and thus they went to Krishna for help.

"Vasudev, what can we do ?" Bheem asked.

"We can't just let Bhrata Duryodhan marry Rajkumari Sagarika and ruin her life." Nakul said.

"As wicked as he is, Bhrata Duryodhan will make her life a living hell." Sehdev said.

"Krishna, Duryodhan doesn't deserve her." Yudhishtir said.

"What you all say is true. But why is parth so silent ?" Krishna asked looking at him.

"I lost her." Arjun muttered.

"Not this time." Krishna said, Arjun looked at him with hope.

"I have a plan that will stop this wedding and no wars will be waged." Krishna said.

"What is it ?" Arjun asked.

Krishna told them him his scandalous yet effective plan, Pandavas were hesitant at first but then gave in seeing it was the only way.

"I cannot do this." Yudhishtir said.

"Why ?" Krishna asked.

"I cannot lie." Yudhishtir said.

"Jyesht, all 5 of you are needed in this plan. Without one my plan will fail." Krishna said.

"Bhrata don't worry, we won't let any situation arise that you would've to speak." Nakul said.

"Yes we will do all the talking." Bheem said.

"And you would only need to stand quietly." Sehdev said.

"Please Bhratashree. Its the matter of my love, please agree to it." Arjun requested.

"Alright fine." Yudhishtir sighed.

"So Vasudev, How do we start ?" Bheem asked.

"By showing everyone that you went back to Indraprasth." Krishna said.
