TRIAL-END OF AN ERA

Chapter-6

Amanya walked out so fast that she reached the fort within minutes. Jatin and Dhruv literally had to run to catch up with her. She was waiting for them at the imperial garden. Whenever she felt stressed it was her habit to visit a garden to cool down.

"Amanya are you fine? don't stress out yourself"

"Yes Amanya. Even if they really have ill intentions, don't you have faith in serpents and hawks? "

"Hmmm." Amanya smiled but her face changed red instantly.

"Now since they forced us then I can only reassure my reputation as the cold blooded Serpent Queen " A demonic smirk flashed behind her smile.

"Ok jokes apart, now let's get down to business. Dhruv asks the cobras to report everything once in a week and immediately if they smell anything unusual. Focus more on Amai.  Especially keep a watch in their court and generals. I believe if they plan against Hiranga then it would be a big plan."

"Will be done commander."

"Jatin, ask pythons to help hawks in security as there will be a shortage of people in the coming days. Also keep a close watch in the north west of Hiranga. Whoever lingers there, should be arrested immediately for clarification. I will ask Jiva to issue a notice regarding this."

"Ahh, Our sleepless nights are coming" Dhruv cried.

"Don't jinx it Dhruv" Jiva said with a smile.

"Jiva, don't try to bring a forced smile. Your eyes have betrayed you" Dhruv replied.

They rested for a while and went back to their base camp. The squad was informed about the Commander's decision and was asked to inform all the snakes. Jiva was there waiting for his sister because he knew  it was really a gamble to let them near Hiranga. He needed to talk with her for a fault proof plan and deep down he knew she was not happy with his decision.

"Amanya, my dear sister, I was waiting for you."

" I can see that". Her face blackened.

Jiva and Dhruv murmured to each other "Seems like the situation is going to be fierce."

"Jiva, Amanya we are taking our leave" and they dashed from the situation."

"Amanya are you still maddened with your brother?

I am sorry

It's my fault to oppose you but in that situation, I thought now since it is peaceful in Mekong we should be a little more flexible than in the past. Even if all the other countries unite with each other to go against us we still have an upper hand but won't we also suffer. Think about it dear. Please"

Her face gradiently changed from black to pink. She started laughing.

"Oh, my innocent brother, I was just teasing you. Why take it seriously? Mr. crowned prince, You should know I am a commander, a general who only knows to kill and to be wary of everything around me. I was taught to be prepared for the worst but you are the crowned prince, the future king of Hiranga. you should know …"

"To kill with one hand and to care with the other." he completed her words.

"You stinky brat, you still have the nerve to tease me ah, even in this situation."

She smiled at him innocently, more like retardedly.

"Amanya, we should plan further. "

"Hmm Jiva, I was going to that topic. Let's have a meeting tonight to discuss further steps. Inform your commander. You can decide the venue."

"Ok then. Let's meet here and ride to the North-west of Hiranga where this is going to end.

"Looks like a storm is nearing. I am thrilled".
