Manan: Magic is in you (episode 17)

Hey guys…this episode is specially for preeti and aastha thank you guys for…encouraging me…

Nandini was getting ready in front of mirror when Navya ,Abhi and Dhruv came running towards her…

Nandini:Relax guys… Nandini is ready to blow everyone’s mind… Now tell me how do I look?

Dhruv:will tell you that later first tell me why didn’t you told me about my form??

Nandini: Huh?? Oh Yaa…!! I remember…even form was not there in VP Malhotra’s cabinet…

Dhruv: But guys that’s not possible… I filled up my form myself and sent it here with mom…

Navya: Whatever?? But what are we gonna do now?? Our forms are stolen!!

Nandini gasps…

Abhi: But why will someone steal my, Mukti’s, Alya’s and Dhruv’s form?? I mean we are seniors… And I remember that I didn’t even saw Cabir’s and Manik’s forms!!

Nandini: I don’t even have enmity with anyone here..!! Why our group’s forms are stolen??

Dhruv: The main problem is something else Nandu… For wand registry one needs their form… There is a column for wand which remains unfilled until the students are admitted… After checking,the details of the wand is filled in the column and then the wand is registered in Hecate as well as in the Magic Ministry…

Navya: OMG bhai!! We are in a mess… Now what are we gonna do? You guys have already completed a year in Hecate but what about me and Nandu??

Abhi: And Manik and Cabir…

Nandini: Yaa even Cabir…but Who cares for the other one??..

Abhi glares her…Nandini turns silent…

Navya: We could have checked in the form book once more but you have already destroyed it!!

Abhi looks at her unbelievably…

Mukti; What are you saying?? I destroyed it!!! Don’t joke Cabir… I didn’t… It’s you both who destroyed those copied forms!!

Manik: we didn’t!! I searched for the book the next day to destroy it but I didn’t found it!! I thought you destroyed it…

Mukti: No I didn’t!!

Cabir: That’s what I thought!! How can you do something so responsibly!!

Alya: Instead of thinking that, guys look into the seriousness of the matter!! You both didn’t destroyed the forms neither Mukti did… But you guys weren’t able to locate the book anywhere in the house… It means someone caught hold of the book..!! And that’s really not good for us…

Manik: Why for you?? We were the one to copy the forms like burglars… You are safe!!

Alya: No I ain’t… So what if I wasn’t involved in this one… But I am involved with you three in every mischief… And I have no issues being involved in it… Even though from the middle…

Manik: Thank you so much Alya but what’s striking in my mind is what if the forms have gone into wrong hands?? That won’t be good for us!!

Cabir: Even if the forms have gone into right hands,still we are in trouble…

Mukti: He is right… What if the everybody questions us about what were the forms doing with us in our bedroom!!

Manik and Cabir looks on shocked after realizing the fact!!

Dhruv: And you will be in even more trouble when they will come to know that the original forms are still in VP Malhotra’s office!!

Navya: What are we gonna answer them?? How come we broke into her office and copied the forms?? Nandu!! What we did??

Nandini: Oh no bhai!! We are in a big mess!!!

Dhruv: Even me…

Abhi: How come?

Dhruv: Even my form is missing… So even I am in mess… What are we gonna do now??

Nandini: bhai… I have an idea… You told me that Mukti and Alya are really helpful and are just like me!! Bhai… It’s time… We have to take their help…

Navya: But why will they help us…??

Nandini: Because Mr. Frowning Malhotra’s and Cabir’s form is also missing and bhai will inform Mukti about that… And even her and Alya’s forms are missing… they will definitely help us…

Navya: I… I think we should leave for VP Malhotra’s office…

Abhi: Hey where on Earth am I supposed to find them?

Nandini: bhai… Take help of Richard na… He would never deny knowing you are Navya’s brother…

Navya throws daggers at her while Abhi and Nandini laughs… Dhruv looks on clueless…

Dhruv: Richard?? That ghost?? He is so naughty!! Why will he listen to Abhi if he takes Navya’s name??

Nandini:go with bhai… he will tell you on the way… Coz for now we are getting late for our registration…

Navya: I will see you Nandu for the mess you have got me into!!!

Abhi holds Dhruv’s hand runs from there…he tells on the way about Richard to him… They both then laugh…

Navya: Now let us hurry up..

She nods and they both go…

Manik: Well… I think it’s too late to think now… we have to go to Mom for the registration… we are already late… Well,I am not getting bad vibes so I guess nothing will go wrong…

Mukti: Wait Manik… I have an idea… Cabir… You can concentrate and see future right… Then look at Manik and tell us…

Manik: Are you crazy??

Cabir: she definitely is…Mukti… Future visions are subjective… They change with the situation… We can depend on past visions but not on future ones… They aren’t reliable… And moreover, sometimes,the visions are according to our brain… Right now we are imagining such consequences that it won’t show correct visions… So sorry I can’t…

Manik:Exactly… He is right… Mukti… Don’t tell me that you didn’t know that!!(Mukti smiles sheepishly… Manik palms his face) Anyways, we must rush now… Till then you both think of a plan to solve this out and also the escape plan…

They both nod and Manik and Cabir rushed out of the room….

At VP Malhotra’s cabin door…

Nandini and Navya are coming from one side whereas Cabir and Manik are running from another side…

Navya:Nandu… You go ahead… You have the experience of getting into that room….

Nandini:Hey… You are teasing me!!(Navya giggles) Anyways as you wish… BTW,it’s good that today the freshers are allowed to enter without any password…

She turns the knob of the door while talking and looking towards Navya and doesn’t see Manik and Cabir coming there while running…
Manik on the other side was running in full speed when he glances at his shoes whose laces are opened… He doesn’t see Nandini standing at the door and BAAANNNNGGG!!!
They both clash with each other falling down…

Cabir and Navya calls Nandini and Manik out of concern…

MaNan (together) :ARE YOU BLIND!!!!???? YOU CRAZY FROWNING ARROGANT BRAT/YOU IDIOT GOOD FOR NOTHING ATTITUDE GIRL!!

MaNan (again together) :How dare you call me that?? Aarrrggghhh!!! Why the hell are you copying me!!!

Manik: Ok stop that now…

Nandini: You should!!

Manik opens his mouth to say something but Navya interrupts him…

Navya: Is it necessary to fight Everytime you both face each other?? Do you understand the mess we are into…Nandu?? How can you forget that? And Manik do you know in what problem we are going to fall in??

Cabir nods agreeing with Navya…

Manik looks into Navya’s eyes and reads her mind..!! He gets shocked…

Manik: How do you know that our forms are Missing??

Cabir:what?? You guys know it….

Nandini: Your form?? Mr.Manik Malhotra,not just your forms but our forms are also missing… We are in equally big mess as you…!!

Navay:Wait a minute!! How do you know about that form??

Manik gets speechless :That’s a long story,I will tell you later… But how do you both know about the missing forms…

Nandini and Navya look at each other speechlessly…

Nandini: Since question is same, therefore the answer is also same…

Manik is bowled…Cabir and Navya suppresses their smile…Cabir praises Nandini in his mind..

The old man on Nyonika’s cabin door speaks…

Old man :VP Malhotra is growing impatient inside… And you guys are the last ones left…

Manik and Cabir gulps :Oh no!! Mom!!!

They all four rush inside…

Nyonika: Thank God you came inside… Else I thought that you are going to argue outside only?

The four of them widen their eyes remembering the topic of their argument… All of them are sweating badly…

Nandini: Y–o–u…. You heard that???

Nyonika: What??

Navya: That we were arguing…

Nyonika: Oh no… I didn’t…

Manik: Then Mom (Nyonika glares him) I mean Professor,how do you know that we were arguing??

Nyonika: I could hear your and Nandini’s voices… You both were screaming… And everyone in the dining assembly heard your sweet thoughts regarding each other yesterday so it was easy to guess who was shouting…

Nyonika threw a sarcastic reply to them and they both were embarrassed…

Nyonika: Now if you are done,can we start the work we are here for??(The four of them nod) Good… Now keep your wands on the table in front of you… Ms. Mew will check your wands…

Manik looks on suddenly at her…
Nandini, Navya and Cabir notice his expression…

They keep their wands on the table… Navya gets shocked seeing something at the table and looks at Nandini but she is busy figuring out Manik’s expressions… She tries to call her without anybody’s notice but she is so low that even Nandini can’t notice it…

There Abhi is searching Richard…

Abhi: Richard!!! Richard!!! Richard???!!!! Can you hear me???

Richard hears his voice thinking that Navya is with him he turns dramatically… Song starts playing in the background in his POV…

Aayi aisi raat hai jo
Bohat khush-naseeb hai
Chaahe jisse door se duniya
Vo mere kareeb hai
Kitna kuch kehna hai
Fir bhi hai dil mein sawaal kaheen
Sapnon mein jo roz kaha hai
wo phir se kahun Ya nahee

He imagines both of them running towards each other… Navya as a Catholic bride and he as a Catholic Groom…  She has a white flower bouquet in her hand and he has a diamond ring in his hand… They reach each other and are about to hug but she passes through him… They both laugh…

Aankhon mein teri
Ajab si, ajab si, adaayein hain
Ho…
ankhon mein teri
ajab si, ajab si, adaayein hain
Dil ko bana dein jo patang
Saansein ye teri vo hawaayein hain

They both are laughing very hard..  he then slowly stops laughing and keeps staring her… She continues laughing… He keeps his hand on his cheek and looks at her being mesmerized…

Abhi: Richard?? Richard???

Richard comes out of his imagination…

Richard :You are searching me?? And were is your sister I thought she was with How come I am so unlucky??

Dhruv: Nandini has a work for you… (Now Richard gets serious) You have to find Mukti and Alya and inform them to meet us in the Quidditch stadium within 15 minutes… Inform your group about this and you yourself go to VP Malhotra’s cabin and wait outside there… As soon as Nandini and Navya along with other two freshers comes out,inform them to reach Quidditch stadium as well… We all are there only… Now rush… You don’t have much time…

Richard nods and flies off from there… Abhi and Dhruv moves towards the Quidditch stadium….

Nyonika: Ms. Mew… You are required here…

A soft attractive female voice :Aha… I must say Nyonika, your new students are really late… But it’s good you called me now… I was going to sleep…

All can hear the voice but none can see anyone…

Nandini(whispering) :Where are you looking so intensely??

Navya(in the same tone) :And why are you making that face??

Manik and Cabir says nothing but just points towards a small doll house…

Nyonika smiles :Sorry Ms. Mew…. But they are the last ones… Plz come out…

The four of them look fascinatedly towards the doll house…

A small pink colored doll sized cat wearing a beautiful white colored gown and a fancy net hat walks out of it on two legs like humans walk and grows to a size of normal cat as it goes far from the doll house and sits in front of Nyonika on the table… Though being a cat, she has basic etiquettes and manners and behaves like royals…

Ms. Mew: Hello girls… And hi handsomes… I was missing you both back there… It has been two days since I saw you both…

Manik: Hi Ms. Mew… I didn’t knew that you are also an important part of Hecate…

Ms. Mew: Of course… As important as any other Professor of this college… And they are your new friends?( she signs towards Nandini and Navya)

They all look at Nandini and Navya who look at Ms. Mew in awe…

Cabir: Nandini?? Navya?

Nandini and Navya(together) : Awwwwwwww…. She is so cute and beautiful and adorable and royal… She is like an angel..!!!

Ms. Mew blushes: Thank you girls… But you are praising me too much… Nyonika ,tell them…

Manik and Cabir looks on speechlessly at them while Nyonika smiles…

Nyonika: Girls,she is Ms. Mew,my pet and Hecate’s Wandsmith… She has the speciality of reading wands and telling about their owners without even seeing them… Just by examining the wand,she can tell about the owner…

Ms. Mew: Nyonika,soon it will be time for my beauty sleep… Let’s complete the work…

Nyonika nods and keeps the first wand on her hand… She caresses the wand and examines it… She then takes it to her ear and listens something…

Ms. Mew :Ahaan..!! This is one of its kind… It’s been so many years since I have seen this… (Nyonika gets worried listening this)
Ficus’s branch, and single hairs of a Dragon, a Unicorn and a Phoenix… 9.45 inches long… Manik Malhotra… This is your wand… Nyonika … Take down the details..

Nyonika nods and gets up to take out the forms from the same cabinet…
The four look at each other tensed…
They are shocked when they see their forms with Nyonika… They look at each other in disbelief…

Nyonika fills the details in Manik’s form… She gets tensed as she fills in the wand column…

Ms. Mew takes another wand in her hand and repeats the process :Nice… Very Nice… 8.25 inches… Willow’s branch,heart string of a Dragon and feather of a Pegasus… Navya Murthy… That’s your wand!!

Nyonika notes down the details…

Ms.Mew takes the next wand in her and repeats the process: hmmm…Good..8.35 inches again willows branch, dragon’s hair and feather of Thunderbird…this wand belongs to.. Cabir Malhotra!!

Nyonika again notes down the details…

Ms. Mew takes another wand and examines it : Manik,you didn’t take back your wand?

Nandini looks on confused… All look at Ms. Mew… Manik shows her his wand which he is holding in his hand…

Ms. Mew : What! How is this possible… Oh wait… (She caresses the wand again… Her expression changes… She takes it to her ears…) Oh My God! It’s first time in so many years…Ficus’s branch, and single hairs of a Dragon, a Unicorn and a Phoenix… Just the size is different… 9.50 inches…Nandini Murthy… That’s your wand… (She gives her the wand) amazing… First time in so many years I saw two peoples in same batch with same wand!! Wow… You both have a very strong connection… May you both always be together…

MaNan together :WHAT!!!!?????

Nyonika, Cabir and Navya look on amazingly at both of them… While they also look first at each other and then at their wands…. Nyonika fills in Nandini’s wand column with double tension this time…
