Uttara

Disguise Revealed

Pandavas were now just one day away from the end of their exile

Uttara was dancing when Uttar stops to see what she was doing

"Uttara, what are you going to get from dance? Come learn to fight with me"

"Uttar, there is no need for her to fight" Maharani Sudeshna says

"There is Mata, everyone should learn basic fighting, dance won't give her anything" Uttar said making Uttara understand that he is trying to convince their mother

"Rajkumar, you shouldn't discredit dance like that" Brihannala says

"Give me a reason" Uttar says

"Take a Sword" Brihannala says "and Attack"

Uttar does as he is told but Uttar can't hit Brihannala regardless of how hard he tried, on the other hand Brihannala did nothing but dodging using dance and somehow takes the sword into her hands and defeats Uttar

"Look Rajkumar, you shouldn't discredit anything, you never know when it will come handy" Brihannala says thinking about dance he learned when he went to visit Indra

Soon there was an attack on the palace to which all the military went to, and within an hour there was another attack on the other side, this one was by Duryodhan and Hastinapur, for not showing them the Pandavas

Uttara's Pov

"We don't have anyone to fight" Mata says

I'm here, I can fight, I can go I wanted to say, but Pitashree said it was too early to let anyone know, he said there was a war coming, and I needed to be in that war so I stayed quite

"But there is one warrior" Brihannala says

I start praying that she doesn't know about me

"Rajkumar Uttar" I sigh in relief "It is his job as the prince to go"

"But he is just a child" Mata says

"I will go, Mata, I need to, as the prince of Matsya desh it is my job to protect my kingdom"

"Even if you go, who will be your charioteer, you can't fight and control your horses at the same time"

"Maharani, If you don't mind Brihannala can be the charioteer, she was the charioteer for Rajkumar Arjun before the Pandavs exile, She'll make sure that Rajkumar Uttar is safe and make sure Matya desh is also safe" Sairandhri (Draupadi) said

Uttar looks at me for me to also convince Mata

"I think this is the best option Mata, we have no one to protect this kingdom except Bhratashree and-" I stopped myself and took a deep breath

"And?"

"Brihannala as his charioteer, Mata let him go, I have complete trust on Sairandhri's judgement"

"Uttara be quite what does a hair stylist and a trangender person know about protecting a kingdom"

"Mata, it isn't right calling Brihannala that, let Bhratashree go if you want to save your home Mata, there is no other choice, it is sending them, or dying, and I, the princess of Matya desh, am not dying"

I didn't realize until I was done talking but Brihannala and Sairandhri were looking at me

"Uttara go to your chamber immediately and take Sairandhri with you" Mata calls me breaking me out of my thoughts

"Yes Mata"

"And Uttar, be safe okay? Come back"

End Pov

Uttara and Sairandhri go to Uttara's chamber

Uttara looks around to make sure no one is there

"What are you looking for Rajkumari?"

"Sairandhri, be honest with me, are you Samargni Draupadi?"

Draupadi is slightly shocked but quickly composes herself "What are you saying Rajkumari? How can I be Samragni Draupadi?"

"Draupadi mata, don't lie to me I can see it in your eyes, regardless of what you say, your eyes can't change, your eyes have the same flame they had several years ago when I saw a portrait of you, please don't lie to me"

"Uttara, please don't tell anyone yet"

"I won't Draupadi mata, I know what happened, I grew up hearing news about how Samrat Yudhistr lost Indraprastha"

"Did you figure out anyone else?" Draupadi asks out of curiosity

"I think that Brihannala is Rajkumar Arjun, and I was thinking that Matya desh has been winning a lot of horse races lately with the best horses, and I know Rajkumar Nakul is great with horses, Rajkumar Yudhistr is very diplomatic, and our new minister came last year, around the time you came, and so did the new cook, maybe he's Rajkumar Bheem? I'm not completely sure, and finally we have been giving a lot of cows away and there haven't been any cows running around eating crops, and I've heard that wherever Rajkumar Sahadev is cows are very pleasent. So was I right?" Uttara asks

Draupadi was beyond shocked, how can she know all of these "Yes, how did you?"

"If Yuvaraj Duryodhan can figure it out anyone can figure it out"

Meanwhile at the Battle ground, Uttar gets frightened, but just as the sun sets Brihannala goes to the cave the Padavas hid their weapons

Arjun comes out with his bow "Rajkumar Uttar, will you take the honor of being my chiorteer?" 

"Gladly" Uttar replies

They go back to the battle ground and fight with Angaraj Karn, but soon return

All the Pandavas reveal themselfs to Maharaja Virata

Draupadi changes into her royal attire, and sees Uttara at the door

"Putri Uttara, what are you doing there? come inside"

"I came to take your blessings Draupadi mata"

Uttara takes Draupadi's blessings "Ayushman Bhav" She blesses

"Panchali, I think the correct blessing should be for her wedding" Arjun jokes

"Arya, I blessed her properly, a girl's marriage should happen when she wants it to happen, not by the force of anyone, or else it isn't a blessing, it is the biggest curse possible"

The Pandavas continue talking and Draupadi is talking to Uttara

"I will go to Drwaraka tomorrow" Arjun says

"Drwaraka?" Uttara says suddenly very alert, and Arjun gets very suspicious

"Yes Uttara, to get Abhimanyu, and to ask Govind for his assistance-"

"There is a war coming" Uttara completes the sentence "I know"

Uttara's Pov

I leave, but I'm very nervous I don't know why maybe because Rajkumar Abhimanyu is coming soon, I'm sure he already won a princess in a Swayamvar, he would never look at me

I go to my chamber and drown in my thoughts and before I realize it I'm asleep
