EPISODE 1






A man runs through an ancient forest, carrying a tiny bundle in his arms " a child. He's chased by several men, and seems more concerned about his young charge than himself. He leaps obstacles in a way that seems unnatural... and so do the men following him.

The man confounds his pursuers for a moment by climbing a tree, but one of them sees his reflection in a very dangerous-looking dagger. He flings the dagger but the man avoids it easily, though his evasion lands him right in the middle of his three would-be captors.

They fight, and the man leaps, twists, and avoids injury without ever letting go of the little girl in his arms. He takes a few minor injuries but finally gets away, and when it's safe, he stops to get his breath and whispers, "We're almost there," to the little girl.

The man gathers some sort of energy into his hand, and when he places it on a nearby tree, the energy ripples into the tree and then through the ground, infiltrating the nearby forest. Gathering speed, the energy races through the forest, igniting glowing, mystical symbols on any tree it touches.



The pursuers catch up, but the energy the man has put out has created some sort of barrier that distorts their perceptions while it protects him.

They have no idea they're only a few feet from him and the little girl, and they finally turn and leave.

18 YEARS LATER

Hotel Moon

Nasik

, A young man sleeps peacefully, while elsewhere giant posters of his face decorate a concert venue. He's Manik Malhotra, an idol from a group called MASTERS.

He apparently makes it a habit to sleep through rehearsals, as his manager is taking a verbal beatdown about his latest absence.

Manik wakes slowly, only belatedly realizing that his phone is ringing frantically. His ears ring as he finally hears his phone, but he makes the excuse to his frustrated manager that the phone was on vibrate. When he hangs up, the ringing and pain in his ears worsens.

Manik

Shaurya

Another young man walks through an airport and groans, "Here we go again," when a virtual army of suited men comes to greet him.

He sees a photo of Manik modeling for his father's company, Sanghal Group, and takes offense to the color of the poster. At first he's angry that the color hasn't changed per his order, but when told his father wanted it kept the same, he pretends that it was all his idea.




This is son of a large Indian conglomerate. He imperiously orders the suited men to bug off, but he's told that they're here on the chairman's orders.




One of the men comments that his Hindi is very good even being born overseas (his mother is mistress)1, and Shaurya face goes quietly furious. He doesn't even need to utter a threat " just his obvious displeasure is enough to have the man quaking.

Shaurya is expected to put in an appearance at Manik's concert that night, which his father's company is sponsoring, but he declines the car his father sent for him in favor of his own motorcycle. He finally gets some alone time while riding, taking in the air and almost certainly breaking several traffic laws.




Later Shaurya calls his mother, and promises to make his father proud and bring her back to Main house with him. He's not happy that she practically lives in exile, but she's quick to tell him that she's moved. They make plans to meet at her new home in the morning, but she looks worried once they hang up.




As it turns out, Shaurya's father is in Nasik, and they're planning to send him to private school instead of back to London. Mom is concerned that it's a strange place, but Shaurya's father tells her ominously to just do as she's told.

After Mom is gone,Shaurya's father tells his assistant that his son won't be easy to deal with. But he's determined to send him to this school, as it will make him useful. How, we don't know yet.

Manik looks worried as he showers and rubs his ears uncomfortably. His thought lingers on an unusual pendant that he's wearing, as if it's important.




Shaurya walks into a hotel room and sneers at the mess, and calls for someone to come clean up. Then proceeds to shed his own clothes and leave them laying wherever he throws them.

He's startled when someone walks out of the bedroom " it's Manik , who still hasn't checked out of this room. The two half-clad youths glare at each other, neither wanting to be the first to react... and then Shi-woo groans, assuming that Shaurya is a obssesed fan here to harrass him.

A young girl, Nandini Murty makes fresh bread by hand and brings them to a booth at the concert venue, but the aunty running the booth complains that the spoiled City kids here aren't buying their handmade food.

Nandini doesn't let that get her down, and says in a loud voice that these Breads are Manik 's very favorite thing to eat and he eats only these for diet .

That gets the fans' attention mostly girls , and it's only second before their booth is overrun.

Manik and Shaurya both call their men in to figure out this mistake, but neither boy is willing to concede to the other and move to another room.




Manik is gobsmacked when Shaurya has no idea who he or MASTERS are. When he explains that they're the star act in tonight's concert sponsored by Shaurya's company, He says that they can just be taken out of the show, then.

Manik looks momentarily stunned, then just laughs that he can rest tonight.

Shaurya's assistant tells him that Manik's fans make up the majority of the festivalgoers, and they'll have to refund all that money if MASTERS cancels, but Shaurya is just all, ''That's fine, I have enough money.

Mention of his father's displeasure if that happens finally sways Shaurya, and he's forced to relent, though you can tell it just kills him. But he pretends that he's being magnanimous, and warns Shi-woo to be grateful and do his best tonight.

He exits, accidentally taking Manik'sgrey jacket and leaving his own grey onebehind, and leaves Manik looking like he wants to bite someone.







Word of the boys' confrontation reaches the concert venue, where Manik's company CEO is furious with Manik for trying to throw his weight around with the talent

.

Manik's manager complains about his charge as well " he doesn't come to practice, he doesn't talk with the other members of MASTERS, and he never answers his phone. There's a rumor that he's about to jump ship to another management company, which would mean bankruptcy for his current company.

Nandini sells out of her Garlic breads and sandwichs, and she think she sees a girl she knows. When the girl doesn't turn at her call, Nandini figures it must not be her. She'd never come to a place like this anyway.



The mystery girl makes a point to watch Shaurya as he throws his weight around at the VIP entrance (excuse me, VVVIP, ha), but he can't back it up because his company ID card is in the jacket he left in Manik's hotel room.

He does find Manik's medicine dispenser, which is bad because Manik is backstage having a bad attack of pain and loud ringing in his ears.







Shaurya finally gets to his seat, whining at his assistant as if it's his fault he lost his ID card. He finally smiles when the lead singer of a girl group seems to toss him a wink, and we see that the mystery girl is also in the audience but paying little attention to the show.

As MASTERS is announced, the mystery girl slowly reaches into her jacket. The group takes the stage lead by Manik, and she yanks a sign out of her clothes and shrieks, "Manik ...Manik !" Meanwhile Shaurya 's expression goes sour to see that annoying guy from the hotel again.

Manik seems to be on autopilot as , and in the middle of their song his ears begin to ring again. He pulls himself together and finishes the performance, though the momentary blip leaves a few people concerned. As the group strike their final pose, the stage lights above Manik start to spark alarmingly.

Suddenly the entire bank of lights falls directly towards where Manik is standing, but he doesn't move, unable to hear everyone screaming at him'



The mystery girl rushes the stage, and it's her frantic approach that makes Manik finally look up.

He sees the lights falling stright for him and puts up his hands defensively " and a familiar-looking cluster of energy reaches up and stops the lights' fall, holding them in midair.

But it only lasts a moment, long enough for the mystery girl to see it clearly, then starts to fall again.

She grabs Manik and tackles him to safety, just as the lights crash down.



He's shocked, so she speaks quickly: "Are you okay? Can you not hear well? Does it hurt? Come to Maurya High, Dean Raj can probably fix it." She's dragged off the stage by security, but she calls the name Maurya to him again, telling him not to forget.

Manik tells CEO that he just couldn't hear people telling him to move because he was focused on the song, refusing a trip to the hospital. But he does ask for a break, and not just for a day " he wants to take a year off. CEO wants to argue, but says they'll talk about it tomorrow.

Once he's alone, Manik shrugs off his bravado and sinks with exhaustion. He's already seen a doctor, who warned him that he could lose his hearing permanently. All the doctor knows is that the hearing loss isn't physical, it's psychological, and he suggested taking a break. From Manik's sad, weary eyes,

But it's not as secret as Manik would like, and his manager tells CEO that Manik's recent meeting wasn't with the rival company's CEO at all, but a doctor.

Strangely, CEO just laughs, even when the manager reminds him that their company won't make it without Manik.

CEO crows that the heavens have helped them, because he can't afford to pay Manik anymore, and has been wondering how to get rid of him. He suggests they make use of a recent rumor about a female idol that Manik dated and broke up with.




Shaurya shows up to retrieve his jacket and ID card, but Manik isn't answering his hotel phone. Shaurya wonders if Manik went to the hospital, but he's out thinking by the river. Manik hears his phone ping, but there's no message, and he wonders if he's hearing things now. It's actually Shaurya's phone, which is still in the jacket in Manik's car. He sees that the message is from "Mom."

Shaurya's father talks to someone n on the phone, assuring them that Shaurya will be "at that place" in the morning. He advises the person not to rush, that all will happen in due time.

But once he hangs up, his assistant asks what will happen if Shaurya quits like he's quit all his other schools. "There is always a solution. He thinks the world of his mother." ~shudder~




Nandini (in an adorable pizza delivery dress and red helmet) delivers takeout to a hotel, but when she calls the customer to come out to get it as the hotel doesn't allow outside food, she's told they don't want it anymore.

But she's resourceful, and sells it to a couple walking out of the hotel.she call them out ''hey pizza in there cost Rs800 but here it is for just 500 with chilled coke ''her cute pout did help it to sell.

Manik get out the hotel for fresh air

A girl stops Manik's car by standing in his path, and jumps in despite his protests.

She's frantic with worry over him, and he assures her angrily that he's just fine thankyou very much, and orders her out of the car. Instead she hugs him with a shaky, "Baby''

But this is all a setup, and we see that she was instructed to do this by CEO , and that she's not at all happy about it. She's Soha, the girl-group rookie who was supposedly dumped by Manik recently, and she's eager to get back at him for the cold way he treated her.

Manik has to physically throw Soha off himself, and walks around to open her door and angrily invite her out. She warns him that if he refuses her, she won't be able to save him.

This makes no sense to him but he assumes she's being irrational, and pulls her out of the car. They're immediately approached by some big threatening guys, and Soha says that she tried to warn Manik.

The men loom over Manik, while his manager cringes around a corner to take snaps.

Nandini happens to drive by on her scooter right at that moment and sees what's happening, and wisely advises herself to stay out of it.''appa says not involve in others mess nandu keep going'''she chat to herself

But when the men start to physically threaten Shi-woo, one of them gets hit by a pizza helmet upside the head they turn to see and saw

. Tiny little Nandini stands

there smiling like an angel, and sweetly asks the men not to fight.

She says she's already called the police, and right about then Manik sees someone in a nearby car taking pictures. He turns to Soha and tells her to leave, and that he'll take care of whoever was snapping photos.

He follows them in his car, while his manager texts CEO that "it has begun."




The paparazzi arrive before Nandini can respond to Soha's question of whether she's also working for CEO , and Soha bursts into crocodile tears for the press's benefit.

She tells a story for the news which makes Manik look as though he abandoned her to the thugs, and paints Nandini as her bewildered savior.

Next Day

In Manik Room

Ceo came to meet manik about last night incident as him being run away idol living his girlfriend in middle of nowhere is the recent head lines







Manik defends himself to CEO , saying that the thugs were after him and Soha was never in danger, so he went after the person snapping pictures. But of course by then the truth is no longer relevant, so Manik wants to find "that pizza girl" and do a press conference with her to tell the real story.




He's suspicious that Soha set this whole thing up, what with thugs and reporters just happening to be right there. But Manik's bad reputation among reporters (he gives cranky interviews) don't make them inclined to report in his favor.




Manik's manager makes a slip that the reporters hate him so much, one from a scandal rag was there without even having to be asked... oops.

That doesn't get past Manik, and he wants to know what it means, though we don't hear the answeras Ceo just left and manager follow him out.

Later Shaurya finally catches up with Manik and demands his belongings back.

But Manik 's had about enough of people demanding things from him today, and just gets in his car and drives away, which does little for Shaurya's regard of him.



But Shaurya barely has time to complain before two men grab him from behind and wrestle him into a car.

tManik had figured out that CEO was behind Soha 's approach and the thugs' attack, and asked if it was because he'd asked for a break.

CEO had non-answered that Manik should just take some time until his ear heals, and he'll contact himlater.

Nandini ignores a lecture from her father about fighting with street gangs (and aww, he's blind, and yells in the wrong direction), since he seems all bluster and no bite.




Her aunt (I think?) has the exact opposite philosophy, that his daughter should fight when she witnesses injustice.




Aunt starts to mention Maurya High and gets her mouth plugged with a Bread by Nandini.

She runs off to go fishing for dinner before Dad can ask any more questions.




Shaurya isn't about to go quietly, and continues kicking and biting his captors even after they've got him in the car and on the road. To get him to calm down, they call his mother, and he calmly tells her he's been kidnapped.

Again. Mom tells him that it's Dad who's kidnapped him this time, in order to send him to Maurya Institute. Apparently he refused when they asked him the first time.

Shaurya doesn't want to go to college at all, thinking he can just inherit the company without needing education, and anyway there's no school in the world who will take him anymore.





At that, Dad grabs the phone and informs Shaurya that being the heir isn't a given, and orders him to go to Maurya High for one year and behave himself.




Dad hangs up and tells Mom that this is necessary, because Shaurya "needs to be reprogrammed."

Mom objects, but Dad promises that if Shaurya graduates without being expelled, she can take him to London with her.

She's a little dim, but she does figure out that Dad has some sort of ulterior motive, wondering if it's that hard to graduate from Maurya High.




Shaurya pretends that talking to his parents took all the fight out of him, and asks to go to the bathroom

. He's let out by the side of the road, though the men stay within a few feet, but he calls them perverts and makes them turn around. He makes a break for it, yelling that he won't go to Maurya high, but he ends up cornered on a cliff over the river.







Shaurya threatens to jump if the men come any closer, saying that he can't swim, and that his parents will have their hides if he dies (even though he was born out of wedlock, he says, ''my mom dad wont leave you alone even with a scratch on me'' information make the guys step backward in fear to hurt him.

Just

Then he manages to overbalance himself, and falls into the water anyway. I kind of love how he gets karma-slapped every time he tries to pull rank on someone.

Nandini in water boat was there to catch fish saw someone falling from afar ''not again ''she mumbeled '' but I cant let him die on me''

she quickly jump

As Shaurya wasn't lying about not being able to swim, and he quickly starts to lose consciousness. He saw a vivid vision of Someone " a girl " dives into the water to save him, and he opens his eyes to see Nandini, and thinks to himself, "she's pretty."

Nandini pulls Shaurya to safety (huffing and grunting and draging his body), and breath as they reach shore she saw him still unconcious soon she whines when she realizes that she's going to have to give him mouth-to-mouth.

She psychs herself up and leans in, but just before their lips touch, Shaurya opens his eyes and asks, "Are you a mermaid?" Then he passes out

.Nandini saw a group of fisherman and kindly ask there help to carry to her home




Manik arrives hotel find that his fans are now all anti-fans, screaming for him to leave Master.

They rush his car, pelting it with eggs, and Manik just sits there taking it, until they all leave.




He remembers meeting Mystery Girl onstage at his concert, and how she'd known about his hearing loss.

She'd said that someone named Dean Raj from Maurya high could help him.

A quick internet search turns up nothing, and he chastises himself for even considering it.

Shauryas phone (which is still in Manik's backseat) rings with another text from his mother, asking him to call her when he gets to Maurya high. Manik perks up to see the name of the school, and now he knows that Shaurya is expected there.

Shaurya wakes to a stomach massage, which makes him smile until he realizes that it's not his mermaid, but her blind father.

Alarmed, he runs outside in only a pair of uncle pants, but outside has even scarier things like weird aunts butchering fish with gigantic knives. Aunt admires his bare torso and Shaurya takes in the strange surroundings... and passes out again.

''He's really kind of a wuss, isn't he?''Aunty said to nandini who come out with a basket of cloths to dry.

She saw him again on floor and shook her head as answer and throw water on him .HE woke up with a starteld''flood..flood''

Nandini carry her basket and walk away while aunty ask him to have food as he look so skinny

He nod with an appetite and eats like a horse, and tells Nandini 's father and aunt who he is and how he ended up in the ocean. He makes grand promises of a reward for saving him, but they both just think he's gone nuts.

Shaurya asks about the girl who saved him, so they send him outside to find her. When he sees Nandini hanging laundry, everything goes all slow-motion and Shaurya gets starry-eyed at the pretty.

Nandini is not so affected, and actually wrinkles her nose when her aunt informs her that he claims to be a Heir.




Shaurya eagerly and magnanimously offers to grant Nandini a wish for saving his life, which really only serves to make him look more insane.

She's just all, It's fine, just go home, I have to go to school now, .

Aunt tells him that Nandini could beat him in pulp because she's a student at Maurya high, and suddenly Shaurya perks up at the thought of her being at same place.''you go to maurya high...




Nandini covers his mouth, since her father would kill her if he heard she goes there,




Suddendly two black car stop infront of her house and two men in black and a woman in elegant wear came out .The women face was concerd and she saw him and called''son''

which is right that his parents show up now.




Mom is ready to scrap this whole thing and take her baby to London, but Shaurya 's changed his mind. He wants to go to Maurya High.

His father is skeptical of Shaurya's motives, but swears that he'll do things right at this school.




In return, when it's time to go back to London with his mother, he wants to bring one other person along.




Manik follows the map that Shaurya's mother helpfully texted to him, showing that Maurya is actually a mountain. He finds himself on a remote forest road on Mt. Maurya, and gets out to walk.

Shaurya and Nandini are also walking in the forest, with Shaurya whining, "Are we there yet?" every few feet and driving Nandini crazy. She tells him that not everyone can find this school when he asks if it's always this hard to get there, and she wonders why doesn't he know anything about it already.

She stops to pick herbs on the way, and Shaurya gets distracted by a butterfly (I'm dying at how he gets less tough and more childlike, the more we know about him) and he tells Nandini that in China, that breed of butterfly is said to bring good luck.

He runs off to catch it for her, and gets himself good and lost.

Nandini wonders if Shaurya ran away on purpose and goes looking for him but she runs into Manik instead.




She's as surprised to see an idol in the forest as he is to recognize the girl who beat up those thugs the other night. Manik assumes that Nandini was part of the setup then, and that she's been sent here by CEO for some nefarious purpose.

He loudly demands to know how much she's being paid to ruin his life, but she swears that she was just helping. He grabs her arm and asks who she's working for, which is when Shaurya finds them and yells for Manik to take his hands off her.

Shaurya tackles Manik and they both go rolling down the hill, which seems to trigger some reaction in the mountain itself.

The wind picks up, thunder rolls, and all the trees start to grow a layer of vines around their trunks. A path seems to open between the trees, and the boys watch, wary but unafraid.



The disturbance can be felt at Maurya School as well, and the whole place shakes.

Students practising lost there balance

Teachers cup begingn to trembel

A man looks up, sensing something important, and we see that it's the same man who saved the little girl in the woods eighteen years ago, DEAN Raj ( Rajeev Kahndelwal). All of the students and instructors are affected by the school's rumbling, and wonder what's happening.



When the wind dies down, Manik and Shaurya can see the path clearly, which leads right to an old building... Maurya Institute. They forget their fight and walk the path together, as the forest closes itself up behind them.

The students and teachers come out to see what caused their school to shake as if an earthquake hit, and they seem to come from many different cultures and countries.

They watch Manik and Shaurya approach, and when Dean Raj comes out to welcome the newcomers, the students all bow to him respectfully.

Dean Raj looks over the two new students, and thinks to himself, "The seal has been unlocked.who did it''

CHAPTER 2

PART @1




Something about Manik and shaurya confrontation causes a wave of energy to flood the forest, opening a path that leads them straight to Maurya High .

Something unusual happened inside Maurya High too that no one can explain its with the arrival of Manik and Shaurya or something else but a wave of energy passes on ground which was felt but the Proffesors and Dean too.

As they both step inside the path leading to the Institute gates .People from inside began to come to check the new arrivals..The path was clear with bushes and trees each side.

They're greeted by the entire faculty and student body, all of whom are curious very much as the which one of these two made the whole school rumble as if its an earthquake.

Nandini breaks the tension by running in and yelling, "SAFE!" " she nearly missed the magical pathway herself, ha.

But she notices right away that "the seal" has come undone,

Dean Raj arrives to see for himself.

Nandini tells him that she brought two new students, and Dean Raj eyes them with intensity.

Dean Raj a formidable figure of authority, tells the two of them to follow him to his office.and others to continue there routine for today

Its like students just arrive a day before from their homes .

Another teacher, Professor Ayaz, asks if there wasn't only one new student expected, so Manik speaks up to say that he wanted to meet Dean Raj. The mystery girl who saved him at the concert to came outside but ducks behind a large vase, but she smiles to see him here .

Dean Hwang, a formidable figure of authorityas he introduce himself , tells the two of them to follow him to his office.

As they walk behind him down the hallowed halls of Maurya Institute,

He informs them of the school's high purpose to protect and uphold world peace. It is, in fact, the only institution sanctioned by the UN Peacekeeping Organization in India Furthermore, Maurya holds the top position in World Martial Arts competition for twelve consecutive years and consistently produces students of the highest caliber.

But, Dean Hwang adds, Maurya and its achievements are not listed in any public record.




The students recognize both of them, as an idol and an International Heir, and wonder what they're doing here.

The other students wonder why Singing idol Manik and filthy rich family boy Shaurya are at Maurya.

Thai student set his drone camera to follow there movment to dean office

But the question of the hour remains: who triggered the magical seal?

The cooking teacher and health classes.Instructor Druv wonder if the dean released it ahead of time, or was it one or both of the new students? Yet, they know that's ridiculous because it's impossible.

Another Instructor Ayaz is more concerned with how the seal got broken, and Professor Ayaz admits that he sensed a new kind of power when it happened.

Dance teacher Alya wonders if it was the new students, but that idea is rejected out of hand.

In Girls Room

With small steps down in room there are two single bed and cupboard each side .bed are link with windows.with small lamp table in middle .Its nandini room.

The mystery girl asks Nandini how she came to the school with the newcomers " her name is SAHAS(Aneri Vanjani), and she just so happens to be Dean Raj's daughter.

She wonders if Manik is the one who opened the seal, remembering how he stopped the stage lights from falling momentarily.

Sahas asks Nandini if she released the seal. She didn't, she replies, although she somehow ended up leading Shaurya there.

Sahas recalls seeing Manik stop the light fixture in mid-air at the concert and wonders to herself if he released the seal. "Who released the seal?"is the question everyone is asking.

In stairs as dean and the boys walk drone capture there sight manik catch the moving object and switch off it and keep aside.

In the room Aryaman vivan rishi watch from laptop Nadet shrink at the blank screen on his laptop''my camera''he ran off to get it as rishi and others have a laugh.

Dean Office

Dean office is a spacious room with Dean Table a wooden tabel with his Name on it.

In front of it is sitting arrangment faceing each other .

There is a stairs aside leading to upper portion of book stock in wooden panel.and just below the panel is the Maurya High Logo and Acchievments on its both side with Cups and medal on bottom area.

There are two large windows in room one is left side of dean table and one in front of sitting area both windows are cover with green shurbs running all way from up to down

As they sat Manik and shaurya both facing him.

Dean Raj questions the boys, asking why they came to Maurya High. Shaurya goes for the easy answer,'' to learn martial arts'', though with eyes on him he admits that he just came because his father sent him here.

Manik shrruged and remains mum even the sight was at him.

Manik refuses to answer in front of shaurya, asking to talk to Dean Raj in private.

Dean informs Shaurya and Manik that classes start tomorrow, and allow Shaurya to theResident House

Dean Raj sends Shaurya to the dorms with TEACHER SAM (Sam Okyere),, , who escorts him to his dormitory room.

In Hallway

Sam rattles off the duties and expectations of the students - cooking, cleaning, laundry, trash - to Shaurya's dismay.

When Shaurya ask is there no cleaning service or cooks? Then Shaurya will get his father to sponsor those things.

Sam who informs Shaurya that he's expected to do everything for himself, including cleaning and cooking.

Shaurya just loftily says that he'll have his father sponsor the school and get a cleaning service and chefs, only to be informed in return that the school isn't broke. Sam is no nonsense tone and tells Shaurya not to think about shirking his duties.

Sam is, after all, the security guard, too. Nothing gets past him.

Dean Office

Manik who stays behind to speak with Dean Raj in private It takes Manik a while to get to the point of why he's here, only

He is shocked when the Dean says, "You can't hear," before he even tells him anything to discover that Dean Raj already knows about his hearing loss.

Manik asks if he can fix it He wants it fixed it soon his whole career is at risk,

But the look on Dean makes him look deeper. "Don't you think your situation needs to change first?

Do you think your struggles are because you can't hear? The problem is inside you." ''Spiritual ouch.huh''Manik suggest he means

The dean asks if he doesn't need to change his situation first surrounding is must for beggining.

Manik thinks his ear is the problem,

but Dean Raj says that the problem is inside himself. 'Maniks pent-up anger and hurt flare with such a personal insight and he stand to leave

Dean who remain beseated offers Manik a place as a student, which Manik rejects immediately.




Outside In hallway

Manik continues to operate on the premise that all he needs to do is fix the media smear campaign to get back on track.

.

He calls his manager to tell him that he's found the girl who beat up those thugs back in City, the girl who can clear up matters with an interview to Media the story that has ruined his reputation insisting again on an interview.

But his manager says that won't solve the problem, and the company is about to go bankrupt because of him.

But Manager dumps the ugly entertainment business truth on him: ''you should know when to bow out in a situation like this''.

He unkindly tells Manik to know when he's finished,Manik should get a a lawyer. and that official papers have been sent to him, presumably breaking their contract.

Manik is blindsided by all this

Room

There's a knock on Chi Ang's door: several students stop by to introduce themselves.

A small army of curious students delivers Shaurya's class schedule to him and introduce themselves.



There are several Indian From different areas Shahid ,Vivan,Abhimanyu ,Chatholic girl from newyork Jenny one American girl named Shannon, and a boy from Thailand named Nadet. They ask how Shaurya released the seal, but he doesn't even know what that is.

The kids are friendly, but Shaurya rejects them all as being beneath his "level."but after the way he snubbed the students with his arrogant remark, "Sorry, but I pick friends who I think are at my level," ''

Wow, what an brat''.they all discuss outside maybe he wont last long.

Meanwhile Manik grabs Nandini as she's walking past him, ready to drag her back to Mumbai with him.

He grabs her more tightly and tells her to come to Mumbai with him to tell them the truth

She repeats that she was only helping him and not part of any plot, but he says he didn't need her help.

He wants truth to came out that He didn't run from the thugs like it was reported (and her comments on the air didn't help), but chased after the paparazzi to avoid a scandal that would harm Soha's career.

He needs her to clear up story by telling that to the reporters since she was the one witness it.

That He wasn't running away, he was running after the paparazzi " as those pictures could cause a more big huge scandal (though it's interesting that he seems more worried about Soha's reputation than his own).

Nandini is chastened that she misunderstood the situation, and agrees to go with him, but between her classes and her jobs she can't think of a time when she's free

But right now with her busy work and study schedule there's no way she can go with him to City right now.

Manik insists on going right this instant, but Nandini says that her life is important, too.

The big misunderstanding is that Manik still thinks she was hired by his CEO

Manik accuses her again of taking money from CEO to cause trouble for him, and to frame him and keeps insulting her by asking how much she got paid to lie and ruin his life.

Nandini gapes at him.. She thinks he's the biggest jerk for talking to her that way.

She butted in and saved him from a bad situation, shouldn't he be thanking her? She says he's a horrible person, and that if he's asking for a favor, he should thank her for helping him, then ask for her help in Mumbai




.The more she denies being a part of the set up the more belligerent he gets that she owes him, which only makes her resist his request to help him all the more

But Manik just counters that he's not at all thankful, and that helping him should be an obligation, since she caused so much trouble in the first place.

Nandini angrily says that her obligation right now is to go to work, and leaves him standing there.

.

Hall Stairs

Manik spends his evening reading netizen ,reading the harsh comments online against him posts about how he's done for in the music business,:'' Manik Malhotra is over. He is no longer a shining star ''and he remembers back to being discovered by CEO .

Manik sits alone in the dark stairwell as main lights are off living the night lamps . He recalls the day when CEO found and approached him with a deal.

When he was in orphanage at age of 18 He'd uploaded a song he wrote online, under the nickname "MASTER," and and was viewed and was like online

CEO of a Music Company for a mega album came to sign him as a singer and song writer.He had sought him out and signed him. Manik's song shot to #1 on the charts and liked by fans CEO embraced him as a son. To Manik, who had no parents, it meant the world.

He and with 3 others in a group MASTERS BOYS had quickly risen to fame, so fast it seemed unreal, and CEO had treated him like a son.

Now Manik knows it was all an act, just for money.As now he know that t the music industry is fickle, and he now realizes CEO was only after money from the beginning and use him as money machine . Just then his ears ring and he winces in pain.

His ear starts to ring and hurt, and it looks like more than before this time

Dean Raj silently comes up behind him and tells Manik to stay still as he massages his temples. "A person's energy is the same as this world. Not being able to hear means that one of your energy points is blocked. Finding that won't be a problem,"

Manik feels a hand on his head " it's Dean Raj hand which ease his pain ,He silently comes up from behind him and tells Manik to stay still as he massages his temples. "A person's energy is the same as this world. Not being able to hear means that one of your energy points is blocked. Finding that won't be a problem," and he massages pressure points while explaining that

Manik's personal energy is blocked, causing his hearing loss. He says he can help Manik, and suddenly the pain is gone.

Once Manik relaxes,Using reverse psychology, Dean Raj offers to escort Manik out since he doesn't seem to want to stay. However,

Dean Raj offers to walk him out if he's planning to leave.

Manik says he won't go back alone. Fueled by CEO betrayal, he insists that the situation was not in control But Manik decides that he can't leave now, but not because he has nowhere to go.




He starts to blame Nandini for his situation,caused by her statements on the air and he won't leave Maurya High until she goes with him to Mumbai to fix it

Dean raj doesn't go easy on Manik telling him that he can play the blame game all he wants, but nothing will be solved until he looks at his own heart. but Raj puts a stop to that " first he blames his ear, now a student but nothing will be solved until he looks at his own heart. There is hard work to be done

Manik. Are you ready to face your inner person? Is your heart telling you to stay at Maurya High and work on yourself even without a guarantee that you will heal?

Raj wants to know whether Manik's heart is telling him to stay or leave .

Dean Raj is talking about high scale things, but Manik still thinks it's about getting his hearing fixed and taking care of damage control for his image.

Dean Raj's parting words for the evening are, "Everything is up to you Manik.

He says there's no guarantee that staying will heal his ear, but training can only help in better way. .

Staff Room

Reviewing the day, the other teachers speculate on why Manik has been admitted as a new student.

The teachers discuss why Dean would allow two new students.

In fact, they're worried about both of the new boys, who seem to have no real reason to be here, and they doubt they'll succeed.

Ayaz teases Professors Alya and Druv forstarting their bickering again and tells them to take their lovers' quarrel elsewhere. It seems their relationship is on-and-off.

(As an aside, Professor Druv and Professor Alya seem to be in a longterm on-again, off-again relationship, which is currently off again.)

Dean Office

Even Monk Ved inquires of Dean Raj why both students remain when only Shaurya was expected.

The elder Professor Ved confronts Dean Raj about his decision to let Manik enroll, and Raj says it would be wrong to kick someone out who needs help.

The Dean, who appears wiser by the minute, thinks that perhaps it was the school who called to Manik rather than Manik seeking out the school.

He gets a faraway look in his eye as he says that "Somehow, it's not that child who came to find our school. This place might have called that child here."

As for Manik, he tells himself that he'll stay, for now. Just until his problem is taken care of... though whether he means his hearing or his scandal is unclear.

In One Room

Putting his Jacket on one of the bed

Manik resolves to stay for now. He wears a necklace that is intriguing - is there a meaningful connection with his past and present that is symbolizes?

Or to Maurya high as his necklance has same logo as maurya high logo.

.Not knowing any of that he puts his charm inside by his t shirt which was not seen by others..

As the bathroom door open

Dj vu

Manik and Shaurya again find themselves face-to-face a, this time in the same dorm room. HAHA, they're roommates they conclude.

Them being roomates which couldn't be unhappier news for them to end the day itself. Soon

They voice their protests to House Mother itself.

They end up in front of Teacher Sam, demanding separate rooms, and Sam laughs when Sahurya requests a VIP room. Sam whose response is the old adage, "they say enemies meet beneath a bamboo bridge." Fuss as they want , Sam tells them to suck it up and make it work, "There is no special treatment in this dormitory." Sam is the greatest.

He informs them that there will be no special treatment for anyone for any reason, and tells them to get back in their room and behave. They're stuck with each other now,

Inside the room

Manik as enter directly make his way to the bed beside the window and lay on it

Shaurya tries to assert dominance by demanding the bed that Manik is lying on, and Manik laughs that they do have one thing in common " they both like the view from this bed., fighting over who gets which bed and who is more disgusted with whom.

Shaurya claims to have farted on the bed , but Manik just says he already changed the sheets. These two are really a lot alike, if they'd just stop trying to be the top dog.

In Hallroom

There is a sitting room with chairs book case and a piano near the fire place.

A girl came and sat on the chair .She cant sleep its Sahas

While the rest of the school sleeps, Down the hall, Sahas softly plays a lovely rendition of Brahms' Lullaby on the piano

Sahas plays the piano softly Manik falls asleep while being awake , and which wakes Shaurya (despite Manik's claim of being a delicate sleeper, he sleeps through it). Shaurya stays up thinking of his mother, and asks her picture to just wait a little longer for him.

He remains wide awake looking at a picture of him and his mother .

, Mother longingly holds him in the same picture. "Mom, wait a little longer," he says. It's hard to know what he is thinking but hie expression are more serious than his character.

In MORNING

Rise and Shine

Teacher Sam wakes the boys in the morning for exercise,



,Shaurya literally falls right out of bed at the name of exexrcise in morning clearly not a morning person he is.

Sam delivers the two new students to their first martial arts class.

"Exercise" appears to be basic martial arts training with Professor Dhruv.

All through the class Shaurya gives Nandini a dorky wave now and then while she pretends not to see him.

Sahas is startled to see her Manik here, a little starstruck, and she tries to run off when he finds her after class.

He to recognizes her from the concert, After class Maniko stops Sahas and asks if she was the one who saved him at the concert. When she says it was her as she want him to come to Maurya Institute.

He asks angrily why she saved him and told him about Maurya High.

She makes light of it and says it is because the dean can help him.

She babbles about the Dean being so good at what he does, and the fresh air, and the cafeteria food, and tries to shake his hand in welcome.

He totally leaves her hanging, and she runs off embarrassed.

Manik isn't convinced at her feigned naivety and refuses to break down any walls to let her in, not even with a friendly handshake.

As he makes his way to next schedule class

''manik''

Some one else call his name out and ask for a quick chat

Its Professor Ayaz as hepulls Manik aside to ask if he likes the school, but Manik isn't making any judgments yet.

Professor Ayaz says that he did come here for a reason, even if he doesn't know what that reason is, yet.

But his voice hardens as he says that Manik has something up his sleeve, and he asks him harshly why he's here. Manik isn't intimidated, and simply says, "I can't tell you. And I don't want to either."With that he excuse himself.

.London

In the office

Elsewhere, Dean Raj walks through what looks like an abandoned prison He took out a photo from his coat pocket it's a photo of the man in hospital ,a lady and Dean himself .,He stare at that with a mysterious look.

Other area

Dinning and kitchen

Shaurya goes looking for Nandini, and finds her in the school kitchen fileting some fish.

He makes the lamest joke ever about hurting her friends (because she's a his mermaid,

and she sighs that he should at least say the word right if he's going to call her "jaal paari."

She coorects him its''jal pari but soon gives up when he can't say it right, so he just calls her ''Ariel'' instead.

Ha, he's got exactly zero game.

She snarls at him to just call her by name, but he only says all starry-eyed that she's even prettier when she's mad.

She's too busy to deal with him, but he gallantly (he thinks) takes her fishy hands and says that she won't have to do this hard work anymore, because he's going to have his father provide the school with cooks and custodians.

Nandini is less than impressed and tells him again ''get lost when I m being nice''freeing her hand and pointing a knife at him , making Shaurya admit that he likes her more because she's the first person to treat him this way.

When she step further with knife he ran away nandini wonder has he lost it ass he fall in water but soon shrug off as she is in charge of breakfast today..and off to her work again.

In his room

Shaurya doesn't register that he's picked up the smell of fish from nandini hands until he's back in his room,

But indeed everyhing from his ariel is awsome for him even these stinky smell

Manik now realizes that he and Nandini came here together the day before.He ask about her from Shaurya

He calls her "the pizza girl," which infuriates Shaurya, and he warns Manik away from her. Manik couldn't possibly care less, having no personal interest in her other than how she can help him

Over breakfast, .

The other students discuss the newcomers, reluctantly impressed that they've lasted a whole day already.the students bet Manik and Shaurya won't last much futher as things here are no their liking or they will either blend in here with their high egos at stake

The Thai student, Nadet, asks if they think the boys will make it to the entrance ceremony, which happens once you've lasted a week at the school.

Alexander Eusebio, the apparent leader of the group and most skilled here in batch ,

He ups the ante and promises that he will make them cry and go home like babies before the entrance ceremony in a week.

He seems particularly hostile towards the two new students.says that ''of course they won't make it the full week.'' He thinks the opening of the seal on their arrival was just a coincidence, especially since neither boy even knew what the seal was. He sneers and declares that he'll have them running home crying.

. Afternoon Class

Kitchen Area

There are different stands for students to work in group with each stand have fresh vegetables burner and stuff for cooking

Manik and Shaurya take a cooking class to prepare for kitchen duty.

It's cooking class with Professor Ayaz Shaurya and Manik are teamed up together . Today's menu is fries

They all are paired up and given the job of making fried vegetables, and Professor tells them a trick of putting ice into the batter to make them crispier.

He warns them though, never to let the ice get into the hot oil.

Manik begin his task buy cutting carrots spring onions capsicunm in small pieces.

Proffesor ayaz observe every students work and nod at manik doing his work seriously and skillfull way

Well Shaurya stand aside eating a carrot while Ayaz raise his eyes at him being ideal he smiled chickly''Is'nt tasting a task too''he replied Professor gave him a bowl and ask him to continusly stir the batter that will be more helpful task for him''Shaurya with a fallen face but eyes on his Ariel start his task.



Alex decides to make his move He Immediately after Professor Ayaz warns them of the explosive danger of hot oil and ice cubes combined, Alex gets a nasty idea to scare the boys,

He intentionally adds ice to the batter, and offers it to Shaury replying''it must be a step to there being collegues'' he then stands back further to watch

. When the oil is heated, Manik tells cooking partner Shaurya to add the batter.

Lazy as always,Shaurya dumps the entire bowl in the frier at once, which makes the fire flare right in Manik's face.

Chaos ensues: a disastrous fire explodes struck with a memory of past

. His's reaction is violent, and he falls to the floor in shock.

Part 2

That's not the worst part, however; Manik crouches under the counter at the memory of him as a crying, helpless child in a house on fire. He recoils in fear.

His bad ear rings as he seems to be more in pain to In his vision he remember a fire from when he was younger, just as the bowl of oil and vegetables explodes, spraying hot food everywhere.

In the classroom, hot food flies everywhere as the students martial arts deflect the hot flying pieces like a food fight on steroids

The experienced students use their martial arts skills to kick and slap the burning vegetables out of the air, while Shaurya just hides his face and Manik cringes on the floor.



Sahas quickly shields Manik from spattering oil with a towel. swipes a curtain from the window and shields Manik , and Professor tosses a empty pot over Shaurya's head and slings him to safety.

When it settles down,

Once the danger passes,

Manik regain his concious his 's anger flares up next he furiously grabs shaurya's collar and yells, "You did that on purpose, you idiot , and he grabs Shaurya and accuses him of his childish play. The two nearly come to blows before Professor hollers at them to ''stop it right now''in range voice

, Alex is pleased with his mischief-making smiles to himself at his success.

In Office




The staff decided to meet with Dean Raj

The teachers hold a meeting to discuss recent change of events. Professor Ayaz is ready to kick them both out over the kitchen incident, but Dhruv thinks it may be too early for such a rash decision.

Professor Ayaz argues that neither Manik nor Shaurya dserves to be here.

Professor Dhruv wants to give them time, and Professor Alya backs him up even though she previously thought they wouldn't last a day.




After the Incident happen students are instructed to leave to next class .

Dean Raj inspect the area and return to his office.

As he enter he saw his daughter walking back and front waiting for him

He clears his throat with noice she saw him and rush towards him.With a cute face ''Dad''Raj doubts his daughter is again in spy mood or have something up her sleeves.

As expected Sahas begs her father to let Manik stay and get help for his ear, and he adorably teases her, saying that Manik should just clean his ear out.

Sahas is the little girl in the beginning of the story who Dean Raj protected in the woods. She begs adorably "Daddy" to fix Manik's hearing.

However, Dean Dad is still upset that she left without permission to go to the concert in the first place.

And now she has brought him to Maurya High and now wants him to fix his hearing just like that?

He says that he still hasn't decided how to punish her for sneaking out to the concert and inviting the kid here in the first place, and now she wants him to heal Manik is nt fair on his part that his daughter is giving up on him for her idol who is younger than her''

''That guy manik is a year younger than you sahas''

She begs Dean Dad to fix "her Manik Ear ." Sahas argues that he's special as even he stopped the lights from falling on himself during ConcertAccident

As she mentions he used powers to stop the falling light fixture in mid air and she herself witness it it was totally an uncall situation.As his inner power could be something unexpected so

he is special and deserved to be here ,

Dean Dad takes notice of her talk.

The concert event news is new to Dean Raj . Suddenly he seems a lot more interested.

Next class: meditation.

.

Shaurya finds Nandini at her next class, meditation, and actually shoves Sahas off her mat so he can sit next to her.

His behavior towards Mermaid Ariel Nandini is adorable, but he is so arrogant and awful to everyone else.

Manik arrives and orders Nandini to meet him after class, then takes the mat behind Shaurya. He quietly thanks Sahas for protecting him in the kitchen, which gives her a teeny-tiny freakout.

Meanwhile, Professor Ayaz confronts Dean Raj about his acceptance of Shaurya and Manik.

He figured out that the opening of the seal wasn't done by Dean Raj himself, and suspects that it was one of the boys " but Raj doesn't know which, so he allowed them both to stay.

Raj admitted that it's out of character for him, but now he hopes that his instinct wasn't wrong.

Manik takes the meditation class seriously, but Shaurya takes advantage of everyone's closed eyes to sneak glances at Nadini .

Professor Ved asks the students what they see, and when Sahas says she sees a fire, it appears to bother Manik.



He remembers a fire again, and sees a baby screaming next to an apparently dead woman . He is startled,



He wakes violently, sweating and gasping for air, but when Professor Ved asks about what he saw, he denies seeing anything.




Not wanting Manik to get all the attention,

Shaurya says that he saw something too. .

He is not on board with the whole meditation thing and mockingly says that he sees scary thugs and runs away leaving a girl behind. It is a jab at the false media report about Manik and all the students know about it

He describes coward guy scared of thugs . He makes the students laugh, but Sahas tells them all to knock it off.

Manik looks furious, and Nandini notices his anger.He stand up and live without glacing back in angry pace

London

All the way in London, Shaurya's father Chairman Khurana opens a safe.

He pulls out an ornate box from his desk, and opens inside there is a beautiful box with a Maurya High Seal looking charm but only half piece .

He stare at the tiny metal charm inside.

Back in India

Nandini House,

Shaurya 's mother brings a thank you envelope to the modest home of nandini parents .

She visits Nandini's family to offer payment in return for saving her son's life, though Nandini's father won't hear of it Mother is happy for the money but Father refuses it.

#1 - his daughter did the right thing regardless of recompense, and

#2 - he's learned that nothing in life is free.

.

Nandini Mother Sister follows Shaurya's mother out to try to get her to hand over the envelope of money anyway, but Shaurya'g smother is just dim enough not to get her hints.

Aunt seems to recognize her and asks if she'looks like someone she know in past , which seems to give Shaurya 's mother a fright and she excused herself to leave

. Regardless, Aunt determines to marry her niece off to Shaurya, and get herself a better place in the world.

Nothing could be further from Nandini's mind, as she fumes over Shauryas childish behavior in meditation class.

It was such a mean thing to do from his side .he still is so immature

.Shaurya grins that she must be staying mad at him because he said she was pretty when she's angry, but Nandini tells him to get lost.

She's not the only female he's pissed off,

As nandini left living him alone in hall passage .He come face to face with Sahas .

She warns him not to mess with Manik.

He scoffs at her threat, (but now that we know who her daddy is),

he should probably mark her words to be serious with his stay here.

At last She threatens him not to bother her Manik ever again.

In Room

The series of unfortunate circumstances that Manik faces and can hardly blame him for being moody and acting wrongly on misunderstandings when he is trying to cop with situation and strange place.

Frustrated, Manik packs to leave,

As much as Manik wants to pack his bags and leave, something keeps him at Maurya School.

Dean Raj's words that he could train and help heal himself weave through his mind, making him hesitate.

By 3'Oclock

Martial skill Self Examine Class

In Practise hall

There is a small square arena in middle .

Studenta sit outside of it little further .There is a board with names and score and beside it kept wooden staves.

The students gather around for a martial arts competition between Sahas and Nandini

Manik shows up at martial arts class, where the students watch Nandini and Sahas expertly spar with wooden staves.

Sahas seem very sharpskilled in her attack and as

her moves are clear but rough .

,Nandini whois very keen to observe the attack dough it while being full defencive and block sahas moves .




Shaurya was still in dazed''truly my ariel have magic in her movces''

He was totally drooling but sight of manik presence was like a unexpected thorn''he didn't leave yet''his thought were worsen but soon eyes on ariel led him all smilling again.

Sahas when saw manik she was off guard and misses a move

Nandini all focused continue to defence and noticing sahas attack weak she round her stick locking sahas move and soon her sword hit sahas sword down making it fall.

Nandini point her move at sahas clearly a skill win.

Sahas regain her self but consider her lose her own distraction but then also she was amazed at her friend defensve skills she side hugged nandini.

Nandini wins the round and when Shaurya starts to approach her,

Alex tells Manik and Shaurya that the class is too advanced for them.

Venomously tells that this class isn't for beginners and useless idols.

He directs them to the beginners' class and Shaurya bristles, but a word from Nandini has him smiling again.

Alex digs at him telling him to show off his money somewhere else

. Shaurya retorts that he's not here by choice anyway, so Alex tells him to leave.He provokes them with, "Shall we see how good the new students are?"

Shaurya comments not knowing that there skills are nothing to being proud of

Sahas who has about enough of Shaurya as well, telling him that they all have hopes and dreams they're here to pursue.

Shaurya and Manik aren't skilled enough for this class, so they're wasting everyone's time here.

Shaurya is ready to verbally spar some more, but Mnaik takes action.

He deftly kicks a stave into his hand and asks if he can stay if he proves he's skilled enough. Sahas warns they're not trying to exclude them arbitrarily, it's just that he could get hurt.

Manik executes a few basic moves, asking if this is what they'd learn in beginner's class, and it becomes clear that he may actually know how to handle himself.

Shaurya also claims to know a few moves, so Alex proposes that they spar each other, and defend their right to be at this school.




But the rules of the school say that fighting means expulsion, except in competition.

He finds a loophole to make it a competition to earn the right to stay " loser goes home.

Nandini tells them not to do it, that Alex is just provoking them, but Manik goes to the center of the circle and Shaurya quickly joins him.

They face off, and at the beginning they seem surprisingly skilled, and equally matched. Shaurya 's style, to exactly nobody's surprise, is pretty straightforward and relies on brute strength, while

Manik displays an acrobatic ability that impresses even Alex.

It's not long before they grapple face to face, and both boys throw a punch simultaneously, determined to be the winner and earn their right to stay at Maurya High.





The students are shocked. Even Alex is surprised and realizes these two are not going down that easily.




About Manik and Shaurya

Manik, which was nice inside , and soon here would learn a little about his mysterious past. Clearly he grew up without parents, and now we know there is a tragic element fire scare him. I wonder if his powers, uncontrolled at a young age, had anything to do with the fire that killed (I assume) his mother?

Even if he repressed the memory and knowledge of his ability, it would explain a lot about his prickly personality.

It's interesting that he's the one who seems more serious about being at Maurya, though he pretends not to care if he stays or not until he's pressed to leave.

And as far as we know at this point,Shaurya has no mystical abilities, and is really only here to kill time for a year and get a girlfriend.

He still want to do his best for his mother better state and for his father approach to consider his worth.

Now even nandini is part of his reason to stay here.

His charcter soon would be in serious chancge in chapters ahead
