At Sagar's apartment, Sagar and Bhoomi had taken the unconscious girl inside where the two laid her down on the couch to rest. They watched as she laid down, making no sound. "Are you sure we should have brought her here?" Bhoomi asked Sagar.
"Its not like we had a choice."
"She's dangerous! What kind of a girl transforms into a tiger?!"
"Maybe that's the power that came along with her prism shard."
"How can that be?! I've never seen anyone with a prism shard that can turn into an animal! Its not possible! And what if when she wakes up, she decides to attack us again?!"
"Would you be quiet?!"
"Don't shut me up!"
"I didn't tell you to shut up! I said be quiet."
"Which is the same as telling someone to shut up!"
"Hey. Knock if off. Why does it sound like a married couple is bickering or something?" the girl mumbled. Sagar and Bhoomi turned to the girl who had just woken up. She sat up from the couch and looked at both Sagar and Bhoomi, surprised.
"Its all right," Sagar said. "We're not going to hurt you."
"Hey! Its you guys!" the girl exclaimed. "You two really knocked me out?! But you're not who I'm looking for!"
"Looking for?! Who are you looking for?" Bhoomi asked.
"None of your business! Now I'll be going!" the girl exclaimed as she got up from the couch.
"You're not leaving till you tell us who you are." Sagar said.
"All right then," the girl smirked. "You'll have to catch me then."
Sagar and Bhoomi shared confused faces. The girl then transformed back into her tiger form. "Not again!" Bhoomi cried. But then, the tiger girl leaped out from the apartment through the window and started running down the streets. "We're going after her!" Sagar told Bhoomi.
"How?! She's right ahead of us!"
"Do you trust me?!"
"What?!"
"Do you trust me?!"
"This isn't Aladdin! Only Krish makes pop culture references!"
"Just jump!"
With that, Sagar grabbed Bhoomi by her hand, pulling her towards him, and carrying her as the two jumped out from the window with Bhoomi screaming. The two then landed onto the ground, with Sagar putting Bhoomi down and running towards the way the tiger girl went. "You could have killed me! Come back here!" Bhoomi shouted as she ran after Sagar.
And so, Sagar and Bhoomi started running after the tiger girl down the streets where people backed away from the scene in fright and confusion. The tiger girl continued to run, tiring both Sagar and Bhoomi. As they kept running, they bumped into a collision with Krish and Chaya along the way, all four falling on the ground with a thud.
"Oww! That hurt!" Bhoomi exclaimed.
"What's with you guys?!" Krish asked.
"We were going after that tiger down the streets." Sagar said.
"The one on the news?" Chaya asked. "Why are you two going after it? Let the police go after it. They're looking for it anyway."
"That tiger is no ordinary tiger, Chaya," Sagar explained. "That tiger is actually a girl that has a prism shard."
"Huh?!" Krish said, confused.
"We'll explain later!" Sagar rolled his eyes. "Now we have to go after it!"
"Well its going down that way." Chaya pointed out.
"After it!" Bhoomi exclaimed.
On the other hand, in the tall tower of the outskirts of Jhootha, there was silence among the tower. However, in front of the locked door of the tower, a hand emerged from the pushes, placing what appeared to be a bomb right on the door. Within a minute, the door exploded into pieces. Coming out from the bushes, was a man wearing a black cloak to hide his appearance over a black armoured suit. He then raised his hand upward, and nine other men then emerged from the bushes as well. The ten men rushed inside the tower, entering into the chamber room. They scattered everything, throwing boxes and papers all over, as if they were looking for something. One of the men then opened a drawer from the desk, taking out three boxes. The man threw away one that was empty and opened the other two that had several prism shards inside. "I found them." the man told the other men.
"Excellent," the cloaked man said looking upon the boxes. "Take them and we'll get out of here."
"Is that all?" one of the men asked.
"I'm still looking for one more thing." the cloaked man responded.
The cloaked man threw off the other boxes he found, until he found a small indigo colored box. The cloaked man grinned evilly at the sight of the box as he opened it, which revealed the indigo prism shard. "At last. Its mine." the cloaked man said and then placed the box inside his cloak.
The man then looked around to see the other men had taken off with the other prism shards. "Those traitors!" the cloaked man shouted. As he ran out of the chamber, his cloak got stuck on the chamber door. He then removed it, taking the indigo box. He opened the box, taking out the indigo prism shard and placing it on the chain he wore on his neck. After doing so, the man had suddenly transformed into the form of a wolf. He howled and then took off, running out from the tower. Those fools! They may have gotten the other shards! But I got what I wanted! the wolf man thought to himself as he continued to run. But mark my words, I will soon get all the shards of the Ekta prism myself!
After a while, Master Suri had returned to the tower where it had started to rain. As he came to the front tower, he was shocked to see the tower door destroyed. "No." Master Suri said. Master Suri rushed inside the tower, going into the chamber where he saw the huge mess inside. He then looked at the boxes around, seeing they were all empty. "Who could have done this?" Master Suri asked in shock. He then looked down near the door, and picked up the black cloak he found and picked up the indigo box that was next to it. "Oh my," Master Suri gasped. "It must be who I think it is."
Back in Mumbai city, Sagar, Bhoomi, Krish, and Chaya were still going after the tiger girl who was taking their breath away as she was going lightning fast. She continued to go, until she had stopped by the front of a house. And that house...was none other than Roshan's. The others stopped as soon as they saw the tiger girl going up to the doorstep of Roshan's house in a normal manner. "Why is she going to Roshan's house?!" Bhoomi asked.
"Oh now this means trouble." Sagar said.
"Well let's go stop her!" Krish exclaimed.
The tiger girl then hit the door with her paw several times while the others came to stop her. Inside, Roshan was coming towards the door. "All right! I'm coming!" Roshan said, irritated. "Who could be hitting my door like that?!"
Once Roshan opened the door, he looked down and gasped as he saw the tiger in front of him. He screamed to the top of his lungs. "TIGER!" Roshan shouted as he then jumped onto his couch in fear. The tiger girl turned to see the others behind her and then she ran around inside the house while the others began chasing her. "WHY IS THERE A TIGER IN MY HOUSE?!" Roshan screamed.
"We don't know why she's here!" Bhoomi exclaimed.
"IT'S GETTING ITS FUR ALL OVER MY NEW SILK CARPET!" Roshan cried.
Roshan then looked to see the tiger going towards the china cabinet. As the tiger had hit the cabinet, a couple of plates had then fallen out from the cabinet. Roshan gasped and immediately jumped to save the china. "HOW DARE YOU?!" Roshan shouted. "THAT WAS MY EXQUISITE CHINA ALL THE WAY FROM BANGCOK!"
The others than chased the tiger into the living room, going towards the main wall. "NO! NOT MY DIAMOND ENCRUSTED VASE!" Roshan screamed. The tiger then hit the stand which held the vase and the vase fell off. Roshan jumped and grabbed the vase before it could break. He sighed in relief, but his eyes beamed as he saw the tiger then going into the study room where it hit against the desk where a sculpture of dancer was sitting upon. As the sculpture, Roshan panicked, "NOT MY DANCE QUEEN SCULPTURE!"
Roshan watched the sculpture shake while the others continue to chase the tiger around the house. He let out a breath of relief as the sculpture had stopped shaking. But then, a tiny piece of the sculpture which appeared to be from the girl's hair, fell onto the floor. Roshan gasped. "NOOO!" Roshan screamed to the top of his lungs.
On the other hand, the others had cornered the tiger girl in the kitchen as she crouched up onto the wall. "Enough games, all right!" Bhoomi exclaimed.
"Now tell us who you are!" Sagar ordered. The tiger girl sighed and transformed back into human form, revealing the girl she was. "Wow! She's pretty cute!" Krish exclaimed.
"Shut up." Chaya said as she slapped Krish on the back of his head.
"Why are you getting angry?!" Krish shouted.
"Are you going to tell us who you are?" Sagar asked the girl.
"Fine then!" the girl exclaimed. "I guess I should be nice and introduce myself. I'm Sanaya."
In the living room, Sanaya was seated in a single chair while Sagar, Bhoomi, Chaya, and Krish seated on a couch to hear her out. And then there was Roshan, who entered inside the room, whimpering as he held his sculpture.
"Would you get over it?" Chaya asked Roshan. "Nothing happened to it."
"NOTHING HAPPENED?! HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT?! JUST LOOK AT IT!" Roshan cried as he showed the sculpture to Chaya in her face.
"It looks fine to me." Bhoomi said.
"NO IT ISN'T! The dancer's hair is supposed to have fifty two curls in her hair! Twenty six on each side!" Roshan whined.
"So?" Chaya asked.
"WELL NOW A CURL BROKE OFF SO NOW THERE'S FIFTY ONE!" Roshan continued to whine. "THAT'S AN UNEVEN NUMBER!"
"I'm still not seeing the problem." Chaya rolled her eyes.
"What's with him?" Sanaya asked.
"Roshan despises odd numbers." Sagar replied.
"THAT'S RIGHT! ODD NUMBERS ARE ODD FOR A REASON! THEY'RE ABOMINATIONS! THEY'RE NOT EVEN!" Roshan screamed. He then turned to Sanaya, pointing at her and shouted, "AND YOU'RE THE ONE WHO MADE THIS UNEVEN! NOW NOTHING WILL MAKE ME FEEL BETTER!"
"Ro, go make some cookies." Bhoomi told Roshan.
Roshan's eyes then beamed. "You're right! I'll go make cookies right now!" Roshan exclaimed as he then dashed off to the kitchen.
"Wow! What a weirdo!" Sanaya exclaimed.
"We're used to his mood swings," Sagar said. "Now its time you explain yourself."
"For starters, why are you wandering around here in the city like that?" Bhoomi asked Sanaya. "And where did you get your prism shard from?"
"And do you happen to be single?" Krish asked, winking his eyes at Sanaya.
Chaya then slapped Krish on the back of the head, making him fall on the floor with a crash. "You're such a moron." Chaya shook her head.
"Can we lose the domestic violence?!" Krish shouted. "I don't mind going all Gandhi on you!"
"Please. Gandhi must be rolling in his grave, wondering how idiots like you are still around." Chaya rolled her eyes.
A moment later, Roshan came back into the living room, sulking as he looked down on the floor in despair. "Now what, Ro?" Bhoomi asked.
"THERE'S NO MORE COOKIE DOUGH!" Roshan cried.
"Oh no," Chaya said, rolling her eyes. "Beware evil, we're out of cookie dough."
Just then, there was a glow that came from the wall, flashing into the eyes of the others. Once the light died down, they looked up to see a portal had formed on the living room wall. Roshan looked up,his mouth dropped wide open. "Great! Just great! First my sculpture is broken! Now there's a portal on my wall that's going to leave dust when its gone!" Roshan cried.
"Oh shut up, Ro!" Krish said, irritated.
"It must be Master Suri. We should go." Bhoomi said.
"Fine," Sagar agreed. "But Sanaya comes with us."
"Why?" Chaya asked.
"She'll explain herself before Master Suri." Sagar replied.
Sanaya nodded. And so, Sagar, Bhoomi, Krish, Chaya, Roshan, and Sanaya went inside the portal. The portal disappeared and the six of them were transported inside the chamber of Master Suri's tower. Master Suri then turned to them. "What is it, Master Suri?" Sagar asked.
"Before I tell, who's this girl?" Master Suri asked, pointing to Sanaya.
"This is Sanaya." Bhoomi introduced.
"Pleasure to meet you." Sanaya greeted as she stepped forward before Master Suri, bowing down before him.
"The pleasure is also mine," Master Suri greeted back. "Who are you, Sanaya?"
"She's the crazy girl that transformed into a tiger and ransacked my house!" Roshan exclaimed.
"You can transform into a tiger?" Master Suri asked Sanaya.
"Yes. That too by will. When I was born, my soul was combined with the soul of a tiger, allowing me to take on the form of a tiger whenever I wish." Sanaya explained.
"How's that even possible?!" Bhoomi asked.
"You must be from the Janwar clan then, right?" Master Suri asked Sanaya.
"That's correct." Sanaya answered.
"What's the Janwar clan?" Sagar asked.
"The Janwar clan was an elite clan of humans who could take on the form of animals. The clan began when Ekta was created and originated with the humans, Abhi, Arnav, Khushi, and Pragya. These four humans could take on the following animal forms which were that of the lion, bear, wolf, and the tiger. With each generation from their ancestry, the clan has continued its legacy with even todays generation being able to take on those forms. And that was seen in Sanaya." Master Suri explained.
"Whoah! That's so cool!" Krish exclaimed.
"And bizarre. To think this world wasn't weird enough." Chaya said.
"So why were you creating such trouble, Sanaya?" Master Suri asked.
"Because I got this back!" Sanaya exclaimed, holding up the prism shard on her chain.
"You possess a prism shard?" Master Suri asked.
"We want to know what powers are on it! And obviously it doesn't involve her being able to transform into a tiger!" Bhoomi exclaimed.
"Just watch." Sanaya smiled.
Sanaya then tapped her finger on the prism shard. After touching it, the others were surprised at what they saw. Sanaya had transformed into spectrum form, revealing the change of her brown colored eyes to that of orange. "No way! Its not possible!" Roshan exclaimed.
"You mean...you have the orange shard?!" Bhoomi asked.
"How?!" Sagar asked. "Aarushi has that shard! She took it along with the other shards that she stole from us!"
"That's why I took it back," Sanaya answered. "This shard belonged to me before she stole it from me. I was looking for her for a long time until I finally was able to confront her and get my shard back. I was also going to take the other shards from her, but she escaped and then mentioned how the rest of the Spectrum will never find her."
"THAT WITCH!" Roshan cried.
"Then how did you get to us?" Chaya asked Sanaya.
"I used my shard to get to Earth. Aarushi mentioned that the rest of the Spectrum lives in Mumbai. So I went to look for them...Roshan in particular, because I found out Aarushi used to work with him."
"Then why did you search in your tiger form?" Bhoomi asked.
"Because its more fun that way." Sanaya smiled.
The others shook their heads. "I wanted to find everyone actually. I heard so much about the Spectrum that I wanted to find out about it since I possess a shard that relates to the shards you guys possess." Sanaya said.
"Well that craziness is done with." Krish said.
"So why did you call us here, Master Suri?" Sagar asked Master Suri.
Master Suri then sighed as he tried to smile. "Well...it seems...unfortunately...," Master Suri mumbled. "The prism shards you all have collected have been stolen while I was out." The others, except Sanaya, looked at Master Suri with shocked faces.
"WHAT?!" Sagar, Bhoomi, Krish, Chaya, and Roshan shouted in unison.
"Yes. Someone or some group or whatever managed to break into the tower while I was gone and steal all the prism shards," Master Suri explained. "So you know what that means."
"Huh?!" Sagar, Bhoomi, Krish, Chaya, and Roshan asked in unison.
"You all will have to start over." Master Suri said.
Sagar, Bhoomi, Krish, Chaya, and Roshan fell to the ground with a thud. The five members of the Spectrum sulked in disbelief. "But...me and Sagar already were in the lead with twenty five shards!" Bhoomi exclaimed.
"I know, Bhoomi. Krish and Chaya had sixteen shards," Master Suri said. "And then Roshan had none anyway since Aarushi took all of them."
"DON'T BRING THAT UP!" Roshan shouted.
"Um...I'm a bit confused. What's everyone so upset about?!" Sanaya asked.
"Would you guys like to explain to Sanaya?" Master Suri asked the others.
The others then got up, all sighing.
"You obviously know about the Ekta prism. It was the prism that made the Ekta world what it was until it was broken into many shards by Pallan years ago," Sagar began. "The Ekta prism contains an inner core prism, which involves the prism shards that make up the visible light spectrum, with each shard representing a color on the spectrum. This is the most important prism within the Ekta prism. The outer prism of the Ekta prism contains other various powers that keep everything in balance. When the whole prism broke into shards, the shards of the outer prism were broken into a hundred separate shards, while the inner prism broke into seven shards, representing each color of the visible light spectrum."
"Okay." Sanaya followed.
"So when we were called by Master Suri to help retrieve the shards, he split us up into partners. Me with Sagar, Krish with Chaya, and Roshan with Aarushi. The partnerships helped unite two members of the Spectrum, with one weak and the other strong, so that unity could be between the two. And it helps with combining powers. Since you're spectrum color is orange, your power is over day. There's me with green and the power of earth, Sagar has blue and the power of water, Krish has red and the power of fire, Chaya has violet and the power of darkness, and Roshan has yellow and the power of light," Bhoomi continued. "So besides us being in partnerships for training and shard hunting, there's one other thing."
"What's that?" Sanaya asked.
"Once all hundred shards have been collected, the partners that collected the most shards will be selected as rulers of the Ekta world once it is restored." Chaya added.
"And it works like this," Krish continued. "The partners can then face off in a battle with the victor claiming rulership over Ekta...or the two can rule together."
"And that'll never happen with you and me." Chaya said.
"Oh shut up!" Krish talked back.
"Wow! How cool!" Sanaya exclaimed.
"Its not cool anymore since we all have to start over," Roshan sighed. "And I don't even have a partner anymore since that witch left!"
"I have an idea." Master Suri said.
'What?" Sagar asked.
"Roshan, I have decided. Sanaya will be your new partner." Master Suri replied.
"WHAT?!" Roshan cried. "YOU EXPECT ME TO WORK WITH THE GIRL WHO BROKE MY SCULPTURE!"
"I didn't break it. I just made it uneven." Sanaya corrected.
"SO WHAT?! THAT'S STILL A CRIME!" Roshan exclaimed.
"Ro, you might as well take Sanaya as your partner." Sagar told Roshan.
"Or I'm up for a switch!" Krish exclaimed. "I can take the cute girl and you can-"
Just then, Chaya slapped Krish again on the back of his head and he fell onto the ground. "Don't even think about it." Chaya said in an annoyed tone.
"What do you think, Sanaya?" Bhoomi asked Sanaya.
"I'm up for this! This sounds exciting!" Sanaya exclaimed.
"Then that settles it," Master Suri said. "Roshan, your new partner is Sanaya."
Roshan dropped on the floor while the others giggled. "I think I'm doomed!" Roshan whined.
"That just leaves me with one question," Sanaya said. "The Spectrum is missing one other member. Where's the one that represents indigo?"
The others looked at Master Suri, waiting for an answer. "Let's just say...things come in due time." Master Suri replied.
