Shivaay: (stands beside Siddharth) Your game is over!!! (The man looks at him in confused)
Rudra: What are you looking at?? Are you confused how we all are here when you saw us leaving from here just now?? (Smirks) It was our plan…
Arjun: Are we mad that we will leave our sister alone here without any security?? You should have think first before jumps into action… (The man realised that he has been trapped by them… He looks at Ishana who is smirking at him… He holds her neck and chokes her… RaDuKa go and pull him from her… Ishana coughs… The girls go towards her and pats her back…)
Man: (towards Ishana) This is because you… I won’t spare you… I will kill you like I killed Gauri… (Omkara punches his face)
Om: Don’t you dare!! Maybe I was not there to save Gauri when you killed her… But, I will be there for Ishana forever… If you think to harm her, that will be the last day for you… (Holds his neck)
Sid: (holds Omkara) Relax, Om… Don’t do anything now… We need to know more from him… (Omkara leaves him) Take him to my room… (RaDuKa agree and take the man from there… Ishana feels dizzy and almost fall but the girls holds her… They make her to sit on the bed…)
Annika: (looks at the guys) We will take care of her… You all go and don’t spare that two rupees ki cheapde…. (The guys nod and leave from the room)
Tej: Finally, the real killer is caught… I hope everything will go fine after this…
Savi: Ishu too will be out from the guilt… She is blaming herself for causing Gauri’s death… Now, it’s proven that she is innocent…
Jhanvi: She is innocent aunty ji… OmRuPri are right… Ishana can’t harm anyone intentionally… Even, if she is the one did the accident, we will still accept her wholeheartedly… (Caresses Ishana’s face… Ishana just smiles weakly…)
Ishu: I didn’t do the accident, aunty… But, I am still a reason for her death… (All look at her in confuse)
Annika: What are you saying, Ishu??
Swet: Ishu, have you remembered what happened that day?? (Ishana nods)
Ishu: That day, after I and Gauri left from the temple…….. (Started narrating to them)
SidLana’s Room
The man has been tied on a chair by RaDuKa… ShivOmRu come with ArSidRanRaduKaKar… All stare at him angrily… Siddharth goes and punches his face…
Sid: Why did you kill Gauri?? Why did you put the blame on my sister?? Why do you want to kill my sister now?? How Ishu related with Gauri’s death?? Tell us everything… Or you will face each of our wrath…
Man: I will tell you… I liked Gauri since first time I saw her… I wanted to marry her but I know she won’t agree… I got to know about her greedy relatives who hated her… I have a lot of money to them and ask them to make Gauri to agree to marry me… They did as I said but Gauri is adamant to not to marry me… So, they tortured her mother and without any option, she agree to marry me… But, on the wedding day she ran away with her friends help… I felt insulted and turn the villagers against her… They humiliated her and almost kill her but this Omkara saved her by marrying her… I wanted to kill Omkara for marrying her but this Shivaay came in between and saved him… During the fight, my brothers are killed… (Angrily) These two are the reason for my brothers death… That’s why I want to take revenge on three of them…
Ranveer: Why did you take two years to revenge them?? Why don’t you do it earlier??
Man: During the fight, I was injured badly and was on bed rest for many months… I don’t want to fail in my plan… That’s why I make sure to be perfectly fine for revenge them… I came to Mumbai after doctor assured my health is completely fine… I kept an eye on Oberoi Mansion for some days and I realised the security system is very tight there… I know I can’t enter the house and have to wait for them to come out… One day, I saw Gauri coming alone and get inside a call taxi… I followed her car and she went to a hospital… After that, she leaves from there with an auto… I followed her and wanted to hit the auto but there are a lot of people there… So, I continue following her… The auto stopped at a temple and she enters inside the temple… I waited for her outside the temple… She came after a while but she is not alone… She came with a girl… That girl is none other than…..
Om: Ishana!! (The man nods)
Dush: What happened after that??
Man: I was wondering who is that girl but I decided to not to back off from my plan… They entered a car and leave from there… I followed them from behind….
FLASHBACK
Ishana is driving the car while Gauri is sitting beside her and talking about her family… Ishana too said about her family… Both of them are laughing and enjoying each other companies…
Gauri: Isana, our both families are having many similarities… (Ishana smiles) Isana, you must introduce your fiance to me… I want to see who is the lucky guy that going to marry you??
Ishu: Of course I will introduce him to you… In fact, I’m going to invite you and all your family members for our wedding… You all must come…
Gauri: Suar!! (Ishana chuckles) We definitely will attend you wedding…
Ishu: Pinky promise??
Gauri: (chuckles) You are asking like my jiji… She also will say pinky promise…
Ishu: Owh!! It’s my school time habit… I’m still continuing it… (Gauri smiles)
Gauri: (looks at the road) Isana, turn to your left… (Ishana does as she said)
Ishu: Gauri, can you do me a favour??
Gauri: What favour, Isana??
Ishu: Please don’t call me Isana… It’s Ishana…
Gauri: That is what I’m saying… Isana…
Ishu: Not ‘sa’!! It’s ‘sha’!! I…S…H…A…N…A… Ishana!! Come on, say it…
Gauri: Isana…
Ishu: Gauri, I’m not going to leave you until you pronounce it properly… Say it again and again until you say it correctly…
Gauri: What?? But, I can’t say it…
Ishu: Who said you can’t say it?? You definitely can pronounce it… Practice makes a man perfect… If you practice, you can pronounce it correctly… Come on… Do as I said… (Gauri nods and started to say Ishana’s name… She keep on saying her name but still she pronounced in her style… Ishana smiles looking at her and continue driving…)
Suddenly, they feel a hit on their car from behind… They are shocked and turn behind… They see a jeep following them closely… Ishana didn’t stop the car and continue to drive fastly…
Gauri: Who is that??
Ishu: It must be that Kamini’s work… She must have informed her so called son about my challenge with her… That’s why he wanted to harm me… I’m not worrying about myself… But, I’m worrying about about you… I’m scared he might harm you…
Gauri: But, how is that possible?? You just met her… How he can come that fast??
Ishu: Maybe he hired some goons here… No time to talk, Gauri… We need to escape from them first… I don’t know any routes here…
Gauri: Never mind… Just drive the car… (Ishana just drives the car as fast as possible… The jeep continues chasing them… Ishana drives towards a deserted area… The jeep hits their car from behind and overtake the car… Few goons get down from the jeep and go towards the car… Ishana tries to reverse the car but the car tyre has stucked in the mud and can’t move… Ishana tries again but fails… She looks at Gauri who is in fear… The goons pulls Gauri from the car making Ishana confused… Ishana gets down from the car and runs to them… She pushes them from Gauri and stood in front of her…)
Ishu: You all want to harm me, right?? Leave her… She has nothing to do with me…
Goon1: You stay out from here… We are not behind you… (Looking at Gauri) We want this girl only… (IshRi are shocked… The goon tries to pull Gauri but Ishana never let him to touch her… She felt someone pushes her and she fell down on the ground… She turns and sees a man is holding Gauri’s hand tightly while Gauri is looking at him in shock)
Gauri: (looking at the man) KALI THAKUR!!?? (Struggling to get her hand out from his grip)
Man: Yes, me!!! I’m back!! I got you after trying for these many days… (Laughs) This will be the last day for you, Gauri Kumari Sharma… (Gauri looks at him in fear… Ishana gets up from her place and pushes him… He fell on his men who are standing beside him… Ishana throws sand on their eyes and they cover their eyes feeling irritated… She takes this an advantage and pulls Gauri’s hand and ran from there… They ran entering the forest as fast as they can… Gauri feels weak and they stop running… Ishana sees a small hut there…
Ishu: Gauri, there is a hut… Let’s go and hide there… (Gauri nods and they walk towards the hut… Gauri’s leg tripped and she fell down… Ishana helps her to get up but Gauri’s dress stucked with thorny plants and it get torn when she get up… Her back is exposed… Ishana takes out her duppata and places it on Gauri covering her exposed back… They about to walk again but Gauri winces in pain… Ishana holds her…
Gauri: (cries) Isana, my leg is paining… (They hear some foot steps)
Ishu: Gauri, they are coming… Come, I will piggyback you…
Gauri: (shocked) What?? Can you lift me?? You are so thin!!
Ishu: But, I’m not weak that I can’t lift you… We have no time… Faster come… (Turns and bends a little… Gauri hugs her shoulders and sits on her hip… Ishana straighten herself and walk towards the hut… She places Gauri down and locks the door… She goes and sits beside Gauri)
Ishu: Who is he?? Why he wanted to kill you?? What is the enemity both of you are having till he wanted to kill you??
Gauri: It’s a long story… (Gauri narrates everything to Ishana) I thought he is dead but I don’t know how come he is still alive…
Ishu: But, why he came now??
Gauri: He must wanted to take revenge on me for ditching him on wedding day… (Cries) If he wanted to kill me before this, I will not worry but now, I can’t… I’m having another life in me (holding her stomach).. Symbol of mine and Omkara ji’s love is growing inside me… I can’t let anything happen to it… (Ishana hugs her)
Kali Thakur and his men are searching for IshRi inside the forest…
Kali: Search properly… I must get them at any cost… (Stops seeing a piece of cloth on a plant) This is from Gauri’s dress… They must be here only… Search thoroughly!! (His men agree and search for IshRi)
Inside the Hut
Ishana is peeking from inside the hut searching for Kali Thakur and his man… She sits back with Gauri…
Ishu: Call your husband and tell him about this… May be he can do something…
Gauri agreed and search for her mobile.. She realised that she dropped it while escaping from the goons… She again started to cry… Ishana gave her mobile and ask her to call her husband… Gauri took her mobile and call Omkara but the call is not connecting… She looks at the mobile and cries…
Gauri: No signal here… (Ishana calms her and thinks what to do… IshRi look at outside and see the goons are nearing the hut… Gauri holds Ishana’s hand…) You go from here!!! Their enmity with me only…. You don’t have to land in danger because of me…
Ishu: No!! I won’t leave you… I don’t care what will happen to me, but I’m not going to leave you alone…
Gauri: What are you saying?? They are very dangerous people… They will kill you if you help me…
Ishu: I said that I don’t care about my life but I won’t let them to touch you… We will leave together from this place… (Gauri hugs Ishana)
Suddenly, the door has been broken and the goons enter the hut… IshRi hold each other tightly… The goons walk towards them and drag both of them out from the hut… They take them towards Kali Thakur who is smirking looking at Gauri…
KT: Where you will escape now, Gauri?? You can’t run anymore…
Gauri: (hugs Ishana’s hand) Kali Thakur…
Ishu: So, you are Kali Thakur?? Don’t you feel shame of yourself?? Showing your manliness to a girl?? If you are a true man, go and fight with a man..
KT: You don’t interfere in this.. This is between me and Gauri.. She is living happily after dumped me at mandap.. I lost my dearest brothers because of her and her so called husband.. I will not spare them.. I will make them to regret for messing with Kali Thakur..
Ishu: Chi!! Don’t you feel ashamed to say this… She is like your daughter… How could you think of marrying her?? (Gives a disgusting look to him)
KT: (grasps her chin) I don’t ask for your opinion.. You better run away from here or I will kill you along with her… (grabs Gauri’s hair and she screams in pain)
Ishu: Don’t do anything to her.. She is pregnant some more.. This sin will not leave you..
KT: I said that I don’t need your advise… What you said?? Pregnant? (Laughs) This is a great news… This will hurt your husband the most.. His baby died before come to the world..
Ishana pushes Kali Thakur and run to the goons and pushes them.. She hold Gauri’s hand and run from there.. Gauri tripped on a rock and fell down along with Ishu.. Ishu gets up and made Gauri stand as well.. Kali Thakur came there and slaps Ishana hardly… Blood started to come from the corner of her lips…
Gauri: (screams) No!!! Don’t do anything to her… She has nothing to do with this… (Towards Ishana) Isana, please go from here… Don’t lose your life for me…
Ishu: No, Gauri.. I can’t save my anni’s baby but I won’t let anything happen to you and your baby… I will…….. (not able to finish her sentence when something hits her head)
Kali Thakur hit Ishana’s head using a rod.. Ishana head was spinning… She fell down but still half conscious…
Gauri (screams): ISHANA!!!
Kali Thakur pushes Gauri and she falls on the ground beside Ishana… He smirks at her and about to hit her stomach but Ishana places her hand on Gauri’s stomach… The rod landed on her hand… She screams in pain… Kali Thakur is surprised and tries to pull her but Ishana holds Gauri’s waist tightly… The goons take Ishana’s hand from Gauri… Kali again hits Gauri but again Ishana places her hand on her stomach and the rod again hits her hand… The goons kick Ishana to make her weak but Ishana controls her pain and tighten her grip on Gauri’s waist… Gauri feels bad to see Ishana tortured by them… Kali Thakur gets angry and about to hit her again but Gauri holds the rod and pulls it from his hand… She gets up from her place and stares at him angrily holding the rod…
Gauri: Are you a human?? Beating a girl without mercy?? Don’t you dare to touch her again… (Kneels beside Ishana and makes her to get up… Ishana stands weakly… Gauri kisses her forehead…) I told you to leave from here… See how they hit you… (Touches her hand… Ishana cries in pain)
Kali Thakur grabs Gauri’s hair and pulls her… He pushes Ishana and she falls down… He takes out the rod from Gauri and hits her head…Then, he hits her stomach.. Gauri screams in pain and fell down holding her head and stomach… Ishana is helpless seeing this.. She controls her pain and somehow manage to get up and goes to Gauri.. She tries to make her stand using one hand…
KT: This girl is really strong.. (hits her head again with the rod)
Ishana fell beside Gauri holding her head… She becomes very weak and can’t get up from her place… IshRi look each other weakly… Both of them extend their hands and hold tightly… Kali Thakur again hits Ishana’s hand and she leaves Gauri’s hand… He again hits Gauri’s stomach and Gauri screams in pain… Ishana cries looking at her…
Ishu: (weakly) Gau…ri….
KT(to his man): Bring this 2 girls to the road..
They dragged the girls mercilessly to the road… Kali Thakur sees there is no one other than them there… He asked his another 2 men to hold Gauri on middle of the road… They do as he said… Gauri felt so weak and can’t even struggle with them.. Kali Thakur sees Ishana’s car and thinks something… He walks towards the car and gets inside it… He accelerate the car and drive in full speed.. He pressed the horn and his two men left Gauri and jumped aside.. The car crashed Gauri and Gauri thrown away from there hitting a tree before fell on the ground… Ishana who is half conscious sees their act and cries… Kali Thakur hits the car with a tree… He gets down from the car and signs towards his men… They go and bring Gauri who is terribly injured with her whole body smeared with her blood… Kali Thakur throws her on the car… He goes towards Ishana who is lying on the road weakly… He pulls her up…
Ishu: (weakly) Don’t think that you can escape by killing us… You will get caught and you will face the worst consequences… I swear, your death will be more miserable than this… If I am still alive after this, I will take revenge on behalf of Gauri… Or if Gauri is alive, she will take revenge on behalf of me…
KT: Revenge?? Both of you?? She will die in some time… I thought to spare your life… But, you can be dangerous for us… So, you have to die too… (He takes the rod and hits her head again… Ishana falls unconscious… He checks her breath and sighs in relief…) She is dead… (He lifts her and places her on the driver’s seat…)
KT: No one will doubt on us… The police will think this girl is the one did the accident… Let’s leave before anyone comes… (He leaves with his goons… Gauri who is struggling with her life just looks at unconscious Ishana with tearful eyes… She too becomes unconscious after a while…)
