Part 12
"Unhon ne muje apna kaam tho. Little strange... tum ek reincarnation ho... aur main tera protector." she laughed, "Yeah kurhta? I don't think so tum yellow main ache lagte ho."
"Come on Shay isse chedna chodo, Dhanish do't worry baaki main tume samjatha hoon." Sidharth laughed and stretched his hand out to Dhanish, "Welcome to the team Dhanish."
"Thank you Sidharth." he smiled, "Ahem main change karke aati hoon."
"Piya, jao aur nahakr aana. That is the place, side main jo laal rang ke pathar hai ussmain haath raklo aur uske baad aao. Tumhari kapde aur towel bhi vahi par hai." When Piya entered the stone area as instructed she nearly flipped, there was a small dry space again with a lantarn handing from above. The sound of watter was actually a small watterfall that was in the cave surrounded by a varety of wild flowers. Her eyes took in the site of small insects roaming around the place and the watter falling into a pond like area making the watter go very slow. On the dry area was was a rack with a some towels and a set of clothes for her to wear, a very soft baby choli that had mild thread work on it, again in pink only a few shades darker. Along with it there was a blouse made of the same pink as the tread work only with a similar thread work in the baby pink and a light dupptata. There some simple metal bangles too making Piya smile, "Wow! Ithni khuubsurath jaga masi ma has out done herself with these."
Quickly wrapping a towel around her self Piya entered the water, very suprised to find it was actually warm and extreemly nice. She could easily see the moon and stars shining down at her as she washed her self in the watterfall feeling the herbs in the watter refresh her body and mind. When she finally went out of the place Sidhararth stood there dressed in, "Green? Aap kaab se green kurtha pehene lage hai?"
"We are just going to sleep darling koi baath nahi hai. Bait.. baal abhi bhi ithne ghee hai... aah aab thoda suk gaya hai. Come, she is wating for you." When Piya went inside he found some of the matts had been spread out in a corner, Jainthini was keeping a plate with an apple and a bowl grapes with a tall glass in one of the mats. She also kept a bowl on the side, "Aaiye bitiya aakar ise khalijiye."
"Ji..." Piya's hand went strait to the apple but guru ma stopped her, "Aise nahi beti yeah vrath ke liye main aap ko de rahi hoon. Bagwan ka prashad hai, iss paani main haath dho kar, khaana ko pranam karne ke baath hi aap kha sakte hai."
Piya did as she was told and offered the plate to her, "Aap bhi lijiye na."
"Nahi bete hume aaj khane ki koi zarurath nahi hai. Chali main aap ko hudh kilathi hoon." Taking a piece of the apple she fed him, "Khayie beti..."
"Ma ke baad aaphi hai jo muje aise khila rahe hai." Piya told her eating the piece, "Hum bhi aap ke maa jaise tho hai beti kyahie."
"Chalo Dhanish jab thak ma aur beti ke yeah drama khatham joaathi hai main tume tumhara weapons deta hoon idhar aao." Sidharth took him to a smaller room inside where several dhagas were there. "Yeah saab hai kya?"
"Weapons, kuch aise weapons jise salong se chupaya gaya hai." he replied, "Dhaage?"
"You will see!" Sidharth replied and selected osme of them from what was there, "Aao hume upar jaana padega."
Sidharth took him to a spot above where the watterfall was flowing, the entier place was shining with natures beauty and health. On the side of the watterfall was a flat rock was a lamp shape that had been built in the center, "Yeah jaga hai kya?"
"Ek waqth yeah ek mandhir tha, aab hamare liye security area." Sidharth explained setting up the dhagas in certain spots of the stone, "Aab main ek ek karke in dhagon ko tumhare haath main lagadunga. Haar daaga ko dalthe hue main tumse kuch waada mangunga. Har ek wadh ke saath tume weapons milenge."
"Lekin main chupaunga kaise inne? I mean achanak ithne sare dhaaga dal diya tho...." Sidharth cut him off, "Uske chintha tum maath karo they will be disgused into jwellery kisi ko koi shak bhi nahi hoga. Stand facing north and kurtha off!"
Sidharth wispered some words waved his hand over the lamp like space and it suddenly lit with a light that had no source, a light in the form of a fier. He asked for a promise and Dhanish accepted, with each promise a thread was tied on Dhanish's body. The first was on his right wrist, his eyes grew wide as it turned into a thin silver band with a small beed. Another promise and the next band was on his left wrist, the third promise got him a dhaga around his neck with a pendent. A special pendent made like a five point star with a circle on top, A last promise had been asked and one last thread with a particularly large thread with an amulet made in silver was handed over, "Place it across your shoulders - right to left."
Dhanish did it and then it happened, the flame suddenly grew and the light lit all over the place, nature it self seemed to have changed for a minute and suddenly everything went back to normal, on the outside. Danish knew that inside he had changed for ever! He had changed within and could never go back. Yet he knew there was no regrets from his side!
"Has it been done?" they turned around to find Maya standing there dressed in a dark green ghagra with a white choli, a green and white duppata across her shoulder, "Haan Maya hogaya, by the way Dhanish, Maya is also one of us. She is deeply connected with the magic so Piya ke protection dene ke liye isse ache candidate koi nahi hai."
"Oh that's nice, umm Maya vo..." she cut him off, "Chod dho Dhanish I'm doing this for Piya, actually hum saab issmain saath hai sirf aur sirf Piya ke liye. Humare past ke wajai se Piya ko kuch ho jay main isse bardhash nahi karungi got that? Aab jao guru ma tum donon ko bula rahi hai."
"Aap ne hume bulaya?" Piya was finnishing her food when they entered, "Haan sone ka waqth hogaya, aap isse suladijiye, hum Maya ko apne saath lekar ja rahe hai. Piya beta aap ko kal char baje utna padega, jaldi so gayie."
"Umm Shayna, jab hum yahan par hai tume mere aur Dhanish ke paas sona padega." Sidharth told her hesitently, Piya simply nodded as Dhanish helped her sit down on the white mattress as Sidharth pulled the mattress over her, "Come on aab so jao. Hum donon tumhare paas hai."
Slowly Piya closed her eyes feeling the security of both her gaurdians wrap their arms around her and filling her with a sense of warmth. Through out her life she had never felt so special and cared for nor did sleep come so easily before. When she was woken up by a voice calling her name, "Piya beti... Piya!"
"Hmm... hmm? Ma... Masi ma?" she asked opened her eyes slowly, "Haan beti, chaliye aap ko thiyar hona hai. Aap ke liye saab kuch vahan par rak liya humne!"
"Ji abhi naha kar aathe hai." she nodded, once Piya left she bent down and adjusted the blanket around Dhanish and Sidharth. Going outside she set a plate with some fruits and a glass of milk, pulling the gungat over her head she kept the food in front of a hollow space. The sound of anklets announced Piya's entery, she turned around and smiled seeing the girl from foot up. She could not believe these were the jwellery she had given her, light weight golden anklets on her feet, the red border on the skirt. The pure white skirt reflected the pureity in her heart, the red of the duppata cafefully fixed with a golden chain around her waist with ruby stones at an inch's intervel. She had even wore the combination of white and red bangles with two gold khangans on each side on both her hands. A long chain around her neck with a five point star pendent with rubies set on each of the triangles falling on her stomatch. The red blouse was covered with the white of the dhuppata, the long golden rubies nearly fell down to her shoulders linking up to the pins that healed back her once again curly hair to the golden thika on her head, "Bahoth ache lag rahe hai aap."
"Thank you!" she replied, "Baas kuch bathen hai jise aap ko teek karna padega. Pehele iss mark ko aap ke maan ke paas aana padega, aap use do bar dalna padega, aise. Aur aap ko ghungat daalna padega."
When Piya does it the hollow space suddenly lights up with no source at all, her eyes grew wide, across the river Haseena woke up with an fright! "SHEHEZADI!
