Chapter 49
The six stood in the forest of don't know which place. They walked around there was no end of forest they could not figure where Demonio place is and where they are
"hey I remember we can find where Demonio is" Asad exclaimed suddenly
Everyone looked at him with hope
"how?" Arnav looked at him with bated breath
"remember our powers? I can control the elements of nature na so I can control air too and it will only tell me where the place is"Asad told
"yes you are right it's a nice idea" Zoya agreed happily
Asad start his magic and in a minute they could feel air directing them towards some place. They keep on walking and finally found themselves in front of a huge palace on the top of which was a huge statue of hawk matching the palace colour. As they looked around on both side of entrance there was a statue of lion. The palace was old so was it's statue and it looks scary.
"this is surely Demonio palace look at the place it is so scary"Exclaimed Khushi
"you are right Khushi, the way it is designed seems the place of evil also who will live in such palace that too in the forest" Arnav said looking around the palace
"you guys are right but how will we go inside we can't go just like that as it is evil place so there must be evil traps" Rishab concluded
" yeah I think we need a full proof plan at every step" Zoya said
"we know that Zoya after all we are against Demonio not you" Asad joked
Asad chuckled while Zoya give him an angry glare to which he shut up
Madhu was silent and was thinking deeply. Suddenly she spoke up
"I know what we need to do"
" what?" Khushi looked at her
"we all have powers, we have book too so our powers and the book will help us" Madhu told
"what do you mean Madhu?" Rishab asked not understanding her
"at first we need to know it's history which can help us... Wait" Madhu said
Madhu looked around the palace and then touch one wall of it. She remained there touching the wall and closing her eyes for few minutes. As everyone start to panicked Madhu opened her eyes. She looked at everyone
"there are traps at every step of this palace even from the first step entrance" Madhu informed
" Madhu you have seen the all traps right?" Zoya asked having the hint of what she did
Madhu noded
"then you must lead us and we will follow your steps"Zoya said
"I understand that Zoya but we all have to walk together any of us should not be in front or in back, there will be also points where we need to use our powers" Madhu told
"means?"asked confused Arnav
Madhu explained "I couldn't see all traps and there will be many new traps too which I think Demonio must have laid as he must have started to doubt from now on. So..."Madhu looked at them
"you know what to do right?"Asad said
Madhu noded
"then what are you waiting for Madhu"said Arnav
"There will be many traps guys also there will be guards too so Zoya you have to read their minds as they must have known what is cooking in Demonio minds also Zo you have to keep your this power on all the time as guards might be hiding laying some traps." Madhu looked at Zoya
Then she turned towards Asad " Asad you can control the elements of nature right?" Asad nodded
" So you have to keep on controlling them every time, air, the most important element of nature and our help it can tell us traps and hidden places." Madhu explained
Madhu then turned towards Khushi "you have to keep in mind that your power work as soon, there will be some trouble for us in future."
After telling Khushi she assigned Arnav his work " Arnav you can just heal the wounds so you are going to keep us invisible with the mantras in book. I will tell you guys the traps that I know and, I think Rishu you know your job fully right?*to which Rishab noded* okay then..."Madhu looked at all of them
"...let's start"completed Rishab "biwi you are really nice planner! Planned it all in minute" Rishab grinned
"Because am understanding the gravity of situation unlike you" Madhu rolled her eyes
She was irked of her husband always joking in such situation.
"I understand biwi but am just trying to lighten the situation so we are not stressed out" Rishab defended himself
"Aww so sweet of you " Madhu pulled his cheek
Everyone chuckled seeing the two.
"Let's go now" Asad said
" wait" Zoya called
All looked at her.
" aren't we forgetting something" Zoya raised her eyebrow
All looked at her confused. Zoya extend her both hand. Others understood what she meant, they smiled and one by one they all hold each other hand and stood facing the palace with head held high they start to walk
Everyone did as they were told by Madhu, Rishab made shield around all of them, Arnav make them all invisible, Asad was controling air while our girls were keeping their senses alert
Madhu directed them as they walked inside the evil palace. There was eerie silence. They all walked slowly. Suddenly Khushi shouted
"Stop!"
Everyone stopped but as it was late they had already step on the trap Khushi shouted again
"Bend!"
Everyone bend down and an arrow with a fast speed pass over their heads and went straight on the other wall. They all looked at it with wide eyes and then have a sigh of relief. They again start to walk
Zoya closed her eyes feeling something " guys I feel someone around stop right here" Zoya informed
Everyone stopped hearing Zoya and wait for her to say something. After couple of seconds Zoya opened her eyes
"Guys we need to be alert here is one of Demonio man and he is thinking that he need to attack on other sides so it means he attacked us with arrow and he is going to attack all around so that we become visible to them and according to me he is going to attack on us from our back so we need to be alert and as soon feel some movements we need to kill him. Remember our attack powers we need to use them only, as we know we don't have time to wander around"Zoya told in low tone so that no one else apart the six of them heared it
Everyone noded
They took small steps and at the same time looked around for any movement. Arnav who was in the cornor feels some movement next to him so he turned with a jolt and using his eyes power he attacks the person who came infront of him and being the saviour of the world, he has more power than atleast Demonio men so the man was killed then and there
Taking a deep breath everyone turned around and walked for their destination again
They were walking according to Madhu direction when Asad speak up
"guys walk backward"
Quickly everyone took a step backward and as soon they walked back the tiles their legs touched got straight spikes which could have pierced their legs completely
They looked at each other side eyed and then sighed.
They walked little more but then again were stopped by Asad hurried voice
"walk back, fast"
All walked back quickly and that's when a huge cage fall down to prison them but they were saved by few inches
They looked at it horrified with every evil horrified trap coming infront of them everyone start to get fear in their heart but they fighted with it and were going to sigh in relief taking a step back, as Khushi had gripped her fear late so when she get the glimpse of future trap they were already there but still she tried her luck
"bend! fast"
Their relief went in think air and getting grip on themselves they bend but Zoya was late as she has closed her eyes and hearing Khushi voice she was startled so she didn't bend as a result an arrow pierced through her. A cry escaped from Zoya lips and everyone looked at her horrified and shocked, as Asad and Rishab were holding Zoya hand so when they sat down Zoya also partially bended due to the force but unluckily her left hand that was in Asad hand was untangled from his hand and was in air so the arrow just pierced her hand
"Zoya!" They exclaimed in unison
Forgetting the situation everyone were about to walk towards her but Rishab stopped them all
"stop guys we can also be hurt just keep holding hands and Arnav please come here somehow"Rishab said
"but how Rishab? Am in this last end and Zoya in that"Arnav asked worryingly
Asad hold Zoya near to his heart who was wincing in pain
"Arnav you come here walking on our toes*Arnav looked at him shocked* trust me Arnav. You will be not hurt us as you will walk on air actually, trust me, now please come here fast Zoya's blood is spreading you need to heal it" Asad assured him
Arnav noded and start to walk and as told by Asad he was actually walking in air so he rushed quickly and healed Zoya wound removing the blood stains too. After doing his work Arnav walked to his place again and they start to walk again
They had walked two floors up but they need to walk till 10th floor the last floor of the palace.
"wait"Zoya said
They looked at her confused
"guys am not feeling it right we had walked two floors from down but no one else has feel the danger from the first floor which was filled the dangers and Demonio men. How is it possible that Demonio let this floors like this without any trap"Zoya voiced her doubts
"I think he thought that no one can escape from those trap so he left these floors"Khushi suggested
"no Khushi, Zoya is right it is not of Demonio to let any step without trap he is sharp that's why he is rulling bad world he can be not this much dumb" Arnav replied thinking something
"yes you both are right wait let me check"Asad said closing his eyes and asking the air
After some time Asad opened his eyes terrified. He looked at everyone with scared face but before he could say he was all more the more shocked
