Nakul and Sahadev to the rescue!
Recap: Indra manages to get the Kavach/Kundal in daan from SidT Putra Karna, leaving the poor hero severly wounded. Kunti finds Karna in this state and pisses her panties. What happens next ... find out now.
K= Kunti / Ka = Karna / P = Paundrak / S = Sahadev / N = Nakul / Sha = Shakuni / D= Dury / Y = Yudhi / oh you'll figure it out ...
Yudhi (Y): So everyone, the time has come. We're going to war with the Kauravas to get our land.
Nakul (N): Yes this is so exciting. I can't wait to ...
Sahadev (S): start slicing people!
Y: So who is our greatest opponent?
Bhim (B): That would be Mahamahim Bhishma and Guru Drona.
N: What about Paundrak's Paundrakini sena?
S: Well, we have Paundrak on our side, so he'll tell us the secrets of his own army.
B: I think Arjun will be able to easily take care of them. We're a formidable five you know. Individually we are 4 fingers and a thumb, but together we are a fist capable of wrecking havoc with our mighty Pandava Punch!
N: That's cool, Pandava Punch. Who's who?
Y: *ehem* More particularly, who are you calling the thumb, Bhim?
B: Hehe, now let's look at this logically. The thumb --
Kunti (K): PUTRAS!!!
B: -- MATA!! We can discuss this later, Mata needs us! (turns around and see Kunti standing there). Mata! We were just coming to you.
K: No you weren't. I've been standing here for 5 minutes and you boys didn't even notice me.
S: Forgive us Mata, for we have sinned!!
K: It's okay Sahadev. Now on to main part. Hold on...
(Kunti prepares herself as her sons watch)
K: Pu-pu-pu-putraas!! (crying) Help me!!
Y: Yes Mata. Order us!
K: Ka-Ka-Ka-
S: KaJu Katli!
(K shakes her head)
K: Ka-Ka-Ka-
B: Khakra une tepla! Boj fine che Mata.
(K shakes her head)
K: Ka-Ka-Ka-
N: Kangana aur Kundaal. You want some jewelry Mata!
(K shakes her head)
K: Ka-Ka-Ka-URNA
Y: Urna?
A: *enters* Mata is saying Karna.
(K nods ferverously)
K: Karna is going to die Putras. Please Nakul and Sahadev, go save him!!
N: But Mata, why would we save Karna? One less guy to worry about.
A: Wait a second, when were you worrying about Karna. I can take care of him easily.
S: We weren't worrying Bratha. It's just that with Karna out of the way, Duryodhan's right hand man will crush Duryodhan. With him dead, maybe Duryodhan might stop the fight all together.
B: I think Arjun is right. We should save Karna.
A: I never said that though.
B: Look if Karna lives, he's going to die once again anyway.
K: But - but - why can't you and Karna live together in happiness?
(everyone looks at Kunti)
Y: Mata? Do you want to say something we don't know.
K: Yes. Karna is my son.
(everyone is shocked)
A: He is?
K: Yes. Before you were all born, your father and Madri and I used to lived in the mountains. One day, Karna came to us and we took an immediate liking to him. Apparently the mother he was staying with was mean to him. She hated him. So we adopted him. He lived with us for a few days and then left since the father he was staying with called him. That's why I want you to save him ... he's still my son, even though I was only with him for a short while.
Y: Hmm ...this adds perspective to the matter then...
K: What perspective?
A: Mata, you adopted this Karna before we were born. So in that sense, isn't he our Jyesth-Jyesth?
K: Yes?
A: So how can we kill our Jyesth then?
K: You can't ...
A: Mata... we have lost the war before fighting it. We can't kill Karna, but Karna will surely kill us.
K: Oh don't worry about that. I've told Karna to protect your lives.
B: You told Jyesth Karna to save our lives? Mata ... how could you do this to us?
K: What did I do?
B: We are Kshatriyas mata. Before the war started, you are telling us that our enemy Karna will be purposely saving our lives.
K: Err .. I wasn't thinking. I wanted you both to be safe and alive.
A: That wouldn't have been possible Mata.
K: No wait! He did ask me permission to kill Arjun!!
A: and...
K: And I gave it to him!!
A: Mataa!!! How could you betray me so!
K: I didn't know I would end up telling you all this!
A: So I can't kill Karna because he is my brother, and you gave him permission to kill me because he's some frickin' adopted shit.
Y: Arjun. Do not speak to your Jyesth-Jyesth in this way.
A: No. This is bull. Mata gave my rival permission to kill me, but she isn't even saying anything like that for me.
K: Do you want permission to kill Karna, Arjun?
A: Well, isn't that obvious?
K: I'll have to think about this...
A: Well how long did you have to think for Karna's request?
K: err... (whispers) immediately ...
A: What?
K: Immediately. I told him immediately that he can kill you. God, that makes me a horrible mother.
Y: No it doesn't Mata. You were just in a swirl of emotions then, like you are now. Had you not known of Karna's impending doom, I'm sure you would have given Arjun the blessing to kill Karna just as easily. You were always fair to us Mata.
B: Arjun, we can ask Mata later. For now, Nakul and Sahadev need to go rescue Jyesth-Jyesth.
N/S: Okay, let's go.
(all 5 Pandavas step forward)
K: Not your three (to YBA). I don't want to get banned entry from the Kaurava camp.
Y: But what if they attack you?
K: They won't... (cries to herself)
N: Don't worry, we'll protect Mata before letting her fall to harm.
(Kunti and the Twins step forward and head to the Kaurava camp)
Guard: You are not allowed to enter. Emperor Duryodhan's orders.
Sahadev: (snorts) Emperor. Ha. That fool isn't even a king; only a measly little yuvraaj.
Dury (D): It's still loads higher than your position.
S: No. I think everyone is above a pile of dung.
Dushy (Dy): Insults. Your brothers aren't here to protect you, go away child before we kill you and your mother.
N: (grabs sword hilt) I'd like to see you try.
K: Boys. Stop it this instant. Putra Duryodhana.
D: I'm no putra of yours. Leave this camp immediately. You are not welcome. My friend Karna is in pain, I need to be with him.
K: This is in regards to Karna.
D: Oh what, you're going to have the beautician and the astrologer heal my friend. Yeah. I'll take my friend Karna everywhere, but I won't let him get cured by your sons.
K: Why are you being stubborn. Let me save Karna's life.
D: Why do you want to save Karna's life.
K: Because HE's MY ELDEST SON!
N/S: Adopted.
(Kunti gives N/S a dirty look, silencing them both)
D: Wow. (applauds) Just Wow. You want to kill Karna in his current state so you coward Pandavas are using your mother. You are pathetic.
K: That is not the motive, we are here to save Karna.
D: Yeah, well who will take responsiblity if your sons end up ... oh I don't know ... kill or make Karna weaker than he was.
Drona (Dr): I WILL, FOR I AM DRONA ARCHARYA!! I TRUST KUNTI AND THE TWINS
D: Wow, you don't expect me to believe that costume Bhim. I can smell your ladoo covered odor a mile away.
Bhim (as Drona) (BDr): Balak! What are you saying. I am not Vats Bhimsen, Vrikodar. I am your Pitamaha, Bhishma Pitamaha.
D: You aren't fooling anyone with that ---
Ashwattama (As): Oh Pitashri (bows down to BDr). Pranipath! Why are helping the Pandavas.
BDr: Putra Ashwatthama. Anshumaan Bhava (Bhim purposely said that instead of Ayushmaan). Karna and Arjun need to fight so Arjun can defeat Karna once and for all, and show that my teachings and my skills are better than Parshurama and my father, Bharadwaja.
As: Yeah. I support my father Duryodhana. If he trusts the Pandavas, I trust them too. Nakul, Sahadev - you are free to heal Karna.
D: Hold it. You blithering idiot Ashwatthama. This isn't your father, it's BHIM. Here ... (rips off fake beard and hands it to Ashwatthama) ... your fake father's fake beard. *scoffs*
A: ah .. he he he ... hhheee ... erm..
Bh: *enters* But I am no fake Bhishma. Be gone Bhim, for I take an Akhanda Pratigya ...
Ka: (weakly) Mitr Duryodhana.
D: Yes mitr. Tell me.
Ka: Call Mitr Paundrak please. I don't want to get healed without his presence.
D: I don't want that Chaliya here.
Ka: He is no chaliya mitra. He is ishwar himself. Please bring him to me.
D: I have a better idea. I'll have these two heal you so you can go to him yourself. I won't be able to control my rage...
Ka: *smiles*
N: Alright step aside everyone.
(N/S approach either side of Karna, holding an empty bowl)
D: Wait... I need to know how these two can heal my friend when my doctor said that healing Karna is impossible.
K: My two sons here are the sons of the Ashwini Kumaras. With the immortal amrit from the heavens, they will heal putra Karna.
S: Yes, Jyesth-Jyesth ...
D: Who's this Jyesth-Jyesth?
N: Oh that's our name for Karna now. He is after all our brother.
Ka: (weakly) you know that I'm your brother?
S: Yes, Mata told us everything. She even told us how you promised not to kill --
K: Putra Sahadev, shut up.
S: Yes Mata.
D: Wait .. wait... what?
S: Nothing, just not to kill innocent people. That's all.
D: Are you sure ...
N: Yes. Why would we hide anything from you Duryodhana.
S: Now silent everyone.
(N/S close their eyes are chant)
N/S: Aum Ashwini Kumaray Namah. Aum Ashwini Kumaray Namah.
*Some Hours Later*
N/S: Aum Ashwini Kumaray Namah. Aum Ashwini Kumaray Namah.
D: Nothing is happening.
N: Hmm... Maybe our fathers don't want to help Karna, after all Arjun dad, Indra, took away the Kavach / Kundal.
K: This is not possible. Summon their powers then, channel it through your bodies and heal Karna.
S: Mata, so much trouble to heal Karna. If the devtas don't want to save him, we should take that as a sign.
K: No. You will heal Karna this instant.
N: Okay. Oh more time Brother.
S: Okay Brother.
N/S: Aum Ashwini Kumaray Namah. Aum Ashwini Kumaray Namah.
(Bowl fills up with teal liquid; they hold Karna's bloody hands and continue chanting. The liquid slowly enters Karna's bloodstream and heals him).
D: Karna! You're okay!!
Ka: Yes I am!
K: OH KARNA! You're alright!
Ka: Mata! What are you doing here? Nakul, Sahadev. Did you two heal me?
D: They did, but now they are on their way.
N: Let's go Mata.
K: No. I can't leave.
S: What? Why not?
K: Because as the Kuru Daughter In Law, I am required to stay in the Kaurava tent.
N: What if they bring harm to you?
K: Your grandfather Bhishma and Jyesth-Jyesth Karna are here to protect me. Nothing will happen.
S: But, what answer will we give our brothers?
K: Repeat what I said.
N: Mata, this isn't some elaborate plot to just stick around and heal Karna, is it?
K: What no!! Why would you say that? Do you not trust your own mother Nakul? Sahadev?
S: Well, it's just that... well if you're staying here, then so am I.
N: If Sahadev stays, I have to stay as well.
D: Actually, all three of you aren't welcome. Get out now before I kill you.
Bh: Duryodhana. This is not the way to treat your chotti mata.
D: I'm just treating the mother of the enemy like an enemy as well. Nothing wrong with that.
Ka: Mitra Duryodhana.
D: Yes Mitra Karna, speak to me.
Ka: Let Mata Kunti stay. Please.
D: But Mitra...
Ka: No. I trust her. She will not betray you. She will stay neutral because on either side her sons are fighting.
D: But ..
Ka; Mitra. Please... for me...
D: I can do anything for you ... fine. But the twins will not stay.
N: Impossible.
S: We will not leave our mother.
Ka: Nakul, Sahadev.
N/S: Jyesth Jyesth.
Ka: You call me Jyesth-Jyesth right ... you aren't going to listen to my words?
N/S: *grumble* Fine... we'll leave.
(N/S leave, followed by Dury, Dushi, and co == all who remain are Kunti, Karna, and Bhishma).
Ka: Thank you Mata for healing me.
K: I'm just glad you're okay Putra.
Bh: Karna, you are not going to participate in the war as long as I lead the army. That is final.
(Bhishma leaves)
Ka; Mata!! I need to fight.
K: I told him to protect you as well, he's only protecting you son.
Ka; Mata... you're so nice!!
K: You're even nicer!!
Ka; I heard what you said before Nakul and Sahadev came ... you sold your freedom to stay in this camp. You aren't staying here because you're the DIL, you're staying here because you gave your freedom to Duryodhan so Nakul and Sahadev could enter and heal me... Mata ...
*they cry together .. the end*
I don't like the ending, but I'm hungry, tired, and my back is hurting so my creative part of the brain isn't working well right now. It's also fairly long. Hope you enjoyed it.
