A few days pass by Uttara and Abhimanyu are enjoying their marriage, and The Upapandavas and the Pandava Princesses are not sparing a second to tease them, but today some of the Upapandavas aren't as happy

"You can stay for a few more days" Uttara says

"Uttara, we'll come back, the next time you come to Madra bring Abhimanyu too" Madhu said

"All of us have to meet again sometime before another one of us get married off" Geeta jokes

"Then we'll be together everyday" Uttara whispers making all the girls smile

The three princesses were about to get in their carriages but their eyes were searching for someone

Just then Prativindhya, Shantinika and Shrutakarma come running and go to the princesses

Prativindhya goes to Geeta, Shantinka goes to Madhu, and Shrutakarma goes to Anjali

"We need to get them married" Uttara says causing Abhimanyu to start laughing

"What Arya? Why are you laughing?"

"Because my baby wife is talking like my Mata"

"Arya, I'm not a baby, I'm 15"

"Exactly, I'm 16 so you're always my baby wife" Abhimanyu says giving her a hug

Geeta and Prathivindhya

"I'll wait for you" Geeta tells Prativindhya

"I'll come for you, you'll be my yuvarani Geeta"

"I don't need to be the yuvarani, I just want to be yours"

"And you will be, I promise"

Anjali and Shrutakarma

"My Mata will never let me be with you" Anjali says

"Then I will take you from your wedding"

"I have brothers Shrutakarma"

"So, I have brothers too, I will and take you, remember Anju, as long as I'm alive I won't let anyone have you"

Madhu and Shantinka

"I should visit Madra more often I didn't know it would be beautiful" Shantinika says

"Madra or the Rajkumari of Madra?" Madhu asks jokingly

"Both but I think the Rajkumari is more beautiful"

"Beautiful enough to make her yours"

"She's so beautiful that I want to be hers"

Everyone bids goodbye and the Princesses leave Madhu to Madra, Geeta to Magadha, and Anjali to Kekaya

While walking back into the palace everyone was talking and happy because Hastinapur also left

"Bhabhishree, what's that on your neck?" Pragya asks

"What's on my neck?" Uttara asks as she tries to look for something on her neck with her hands

"Right here, there is a red mark on your neck" Pragya says as she takes Uttara's hand and places it at the mark

Uttara, knowing exactly where she got this mark, decides to lie "It must be a mosquito bite"

"Bhabhishree, I found the mosquito" Shrutakarma says pointing at Abhimanyu who is now confused

"What mosquito anuj?" Abhimanyu said

"Bhabhishree got a mosquito bite" Shrutakarma said trying not to laugh

"What? Where?"

"On her neck"

Abhimanyu freezes, he knows what this so called mosqito bite is but decides to act smart about it "You know, I saw a smiliar bite on Anjali's neck"

"No you didn't" Shrutakarma says slightly defesively

"I did anuj, I did" Abhimanyu insists

"Bhrata, don't tell Pitashree or Mata"

"Arya, don't tease him, let him be, he's just a child" Uttara defends Shrutakarma

"Devi he's older than you"

"Is he not a child Arya? Look at what you did to my devar ji"

"Yeah Bhabhishree, Bhrata is so mean"

"I know Shrutakarma, you go I'll tell to your Bhrata to be nice to you"

Everyone leaves except Uttara and Abhimanyu

"I'm mean?" Abhimanyu teases

"Of course"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That night Uttara wanted to go and practice

"Devi, its risky you need to understand"

"Arya who would come to the middle of the forest"

"Okay, but I'll come with you"

"Okay, get all your weapons" Uttara says as she opens her armory

"How are we going to carry all of these?" Abhimanyu asks

"This satchel" Uttara says

"How-"

"It's a magic satchel, it can hold all our weapons"

Uttara and Abhimanyu hold their bows and put the rest of their weapons in the sachel and go to see if their are people in the hallways

"They'll see us for sure" Uttara said

"I'll make stairs from our room, let's go"

Abhimanyu makes stairs with his arrows from Uttara's room and the couple swiftly goes down them and into the forest to practice

Meanwhile Arjun is talking to Krishna

"What are you doing here Parth?" Krishna asks

"Where am I supposed to be Madhav?"

"The weather is nice why not take my Sakhi out for a walk"

"What would I do without you Madhav?"

"A lot more than you know"

Arjun takes Draupadi leaves the palace and both of them start walking hand in hand, just taking in the surroundings, the cool breeze, the full moon, the sound swords clashing in the distance

"Panchali, do you hear that? It sounds like swords clashing, who would be fighting at this time"

"It's probably Shantinika and Abhimanyu, those two can never rest from practicing, if we go to tell them they'll say they need 5 more minutes"

"But didn't Abhimanyu go back to his room with Uttara? Uttara said she was very tired and basically dragged Abhimanyu with her"

"Then it should be another one of our sons"

"Then why is it coming from deeper inside the forest, the training area should be behind us, something isn't right Panchali"

Arjun starts running towards the sound and Draupadi runs after him, the couple stops to see Uttara and Abhimanyu fighting

Both of them had blindfolds on their eyes and Uttara's right hand was tried back and she was only fighting with her left, her braid had come undone and the slight breeze pushed her hair back, revealing her face full of determination, in that moment she looked like the Godess Parvati who was ready to unleash her Mahakali form

The young couple fought while Draupadi and Arjun stood there in awe unable to speak, but both Uttara and Abhimanyu got confused by their presence and Uttara ended up putting a sword to Arjun's neck and Abhimanyu to Draupadi's neck
