Now for the matter of the abnormal n hideous experiments that Mirae is conducting on young women...  In the lab, the lead scientist observes the subjects being kept on upright slabs under plastic shrouds, who look dead but are alive, as seen from the twitching fingers n breathing movements.

A junior scientist secretively downloads data from the lab computer and tucks away the mini drive.

--------------------------------

Chairman Kanish fishes with business contacts, a police chief and a politician (Congressman, from the previous part). There's a clear double meaning as Chairman Kanish hooks a small live fish onto his hook and says, "There's no bait like the living kind" — just as he brings up Mirae's new research.

The congressman speculates that his 20-year stem cell research will have required a huge number of human samples...

Contrary to the eager-to-please police chief, Congressman leaves abruptly, at which point Chairman Kanish nods at Manager Mini, who understands his message.

Mini immediately sends a text message to Avantika... "New mission activated"

-------------------------------

The rogue scientist locks up her stolen data in a public locker for safekeeping, sends a message on her cell phone, then tosses the phone to avoid being linked to it... Immediately, the transmission is picked up by the SS1 team, who traces the location.

The man who arrives to pick up the data is Dr. Charle, the ex-Mirae scientist, and the congressman's informant. He picks up the data, then recoils at the sight of Mini, waiting for him. This leaves Congressman pacing worriedly when Dr. Charle misses their appointment...

Avantika arrives outside his hotel suite, dressed up like a callgirl this time, saying coyly "I'm on familiar terms with the congressman, the one who called me here."

She's given the patdown, and the bodyguard frowns when he feels something strapped to her leg. He asks "what it is"...  and she replies, "A Glock 17C."

She proceeds to knock the guards all out in hand-to-hand combat, in full dress and heels... So much for their special forces training.

The last bodyguard opens the door to check on the others and gets a quick shot to the chest. Congressman makes a run for it, but Avantika easily takes him down with a sideways shot through the cracked doorway.

This time, though, Avantika isn't nearly as stoic as in the past; on the way back, she sheds a tear.

-----------------------------------

At Mirae, finally, info. on that phallic glass tube, which is labeled Avantika — must be those valuable stem cells Chairman Kanish is so excited about. ... And creepily enough... the fluid is hooked up to an IV that drips into the Chairman's arm.

Ah, so when he says he needs Avantika, he's being literal; must be her cells keeping him alive...

Mini reports "they haven't been able to locate a leak within the lab yet and warns that there is still the risk of their research being leaked."  She suggests pushing back Mirae's big opening, wherein the Chairman will reveal the fruits of their stem cell research.

The Chairman Kanish refuses, saying "I've been waiting years for this day."

----------------------------

Sohel sees the news of the congressman's murder and is certain it's Chairman Kanish's doing. He fills in Thakur on the facts: "the Chairman was a stem-cell researcher, but contrary to the public spin, his interest is purely selfish, because of his own sickly health. But he encountered too much opposition to his early research, so he formed SS1, where he could conduct his experiments in secrecy"

In his heyday, Sohel was the chief manager of SS1... Chairman Kanish and a group of five powerful men were in this together — and as soon as the research yielded its results, Sohel and Mini were ordered to wipe out the other five.

Furthermore, Sohel suspects that Avantika is involved in the recent murders, and looks toward Mirae's big unveiling as an important date...

-----------------------

At school, the undercover teacher/SS1 employee takes aside the three girls who hate Avantika, who soon afterward go missing.

Avantika sits alone on the rooftop, where Ranveer finds her. He assures her with his adorable teenage bravado " if u have got worries, u can trust me" ... and invites her out.

He takes her to an amusement park, and makes a failed attempt to put his hand on her shoulder.  he turns away trying not to give himself away, while cringing in embarrassment.

He asks "what ur dream in life ?", and tells her enthusiastically how he's going to be a famous photographer.

He finally finds the moment to take her hand, and when she doesn't pull away, the biggest grin spreads across his face...

There's something really sad and stark about the contrast of Ranveer giddy over this date with the girl he likes, and Avantika looking out at the other mother-child pairs at the amusement park, thinking of her own dead mother...

As they leave the park, Ranveer works up the nerve to make his bashful confession: "I...l-like you."

Avantika tells him, "I know."

He wonders... "Was it obvious? I tried not to be obvious."

He tells her "today was the second happiest day in my life, as the happiest was the day he saw her."

She tells him "Don't like me, ... I don't like u back."  She's lying, but it seems like the fair thing to do in her position.

He tells her "I won't give up"    ...  but that just makes her shut him down harder, which also pinches my heart just a little... Okay, a lot!

Avantika bursts out, "I don't like you! I just came here today because I was bored."

Ouuuch...

She walks off, leaving Ranveer deflates... But he's energizer puppy if ever there was one, and calls after her, "Sonia! You're even cute when you're mad!"

------------------------------------

Back in the stark white cell that passes for home... ... Avantika smiles at the photos Ranveer took of her, which she quickly hides from Mini, who asks about her skipping class.

Avantika lies "I'm just hanging out in the gym" to which Mini warns her " Okay! ... be careful."

Avantika asks hesitantly, "How much longer do I have to work?" She wants to stop killing now.

Mini puts on a sympathetic face, though it hardens when she turns around. Saying she understands, she adds "I'll find a way out for u."

----------------------------------

The three girls are absent from class again, which makes Avantika suspicious. She confronts her teacher, who feigns ignorance but immediately gets on the phone with SS1 as soon as she's alone.

------------------------------

In a dark, underground location, Mini approaches turncoat Dr. Charle, now captured and bound. She demands the name of his insider informant, warning him that his big ally — the congressman — is dead....  She threatens his daughter to get him to blab the details about his scheduled rendezvous, then shoots him.

-------------------------------

Avantika stays in her classroom long after the school's over, thinking of her mother. It's here that Sohel finds her, amazed and relieved that she's still alive, accompanied by Thakur. She nervously tells him "u r mistaken, I'm Sonia"  ..... ....but he's not fooled.

Sohel guesses that she's working in SS1 with Mini and Chairman Kanish, and urges her to leave with him...  She flings off his arm and heads out, but stops short upon seeing Mini walking toward her... The men catch on to danger and duck out of sight, but Mini reads the uneasiness in Avantika's expression and seems to sense the others' presence. ...For now, she lets it go.

-----------------------------

At the appointed meeting place, the SS1 scientist waits for her contact, who is, of course, not forthcoming. The museum is about to close and she's anxious. Nearby, a group of students in a photography club heads out together — Ranveer among the members.

Outside the museum, Mini pulls up with Avantika and tells her "this will be ur last mission for a while since I'll be giving u a long break.... ... your target is Yumi" (the scientist who stole from their lab.)

Yumi sees Avantika approaching and senses trouble — your company's killer for hire coming after you can't be a good sign.

Avantika follows, not even noticing the group of boys outside — but Ranveer's attuned to everything Avantika-related and catches a glimpse of her.... ... Ever the faithful puppy, he pulls a stuffed bear from his back and follows her with an excited smile.

Ahhhh! You adorable, lovesick fool!

Mini sees him entering the building and takes note.

Avantika stalks Yumi through the mazelike museum, and Ranveer follows much farther behind.

Yumi gets more and more scared as she runs through the exhibits, until she finally comes face to face with Avantika, who shoots her in the throat...

Yumi lays twitching on the ground, gasping, and holds out the flash drive of data to Avantika... She tells her, "It has to stop. If it doesn't, more girls other than you will..."

Hearing a sound, Avantika whirls around and levels her gun...on Ranveer... He doesn't assume she's the predator, though, and worriedly registers the blood on her face. And just as he asks " Are u Okay, Soni..."

... .... ...BAM!!!! ... ...

A bullet flies through his head.

Mini steps into view, gun in hand. Then for good measure, she shoots again, saying "I had no choice..."

Of all the killings aside from her mother's, this one hits Avantika hardest; she screams at Mini, crawling over to Ranveer while sobbing...

Mini sees that things are about to spiral out of control ... so she whacks Avantika in the back with her gun, knocking her out... 

Avantika falls to the ground... landing in Ranveer's dead embrace, hand in hand.......

--------------------------------------------------------

Avantika is taken to the lab and sedated...

Mini foresees that killing Ranveer was probably a mistake, as it's going to fuck up Avantika for a good long while, and asks the scientist/teacher about memory erasure. They'd done it once before, but that agent ended up dying several months later.

But it's still the better choice in Mini's eyes, and she orders Avantika's memory wiped.

-----------------------------------------------

SS1 receives word that Sohel has been located, and Mini mobilizes a team of heavily armed operatives.

Avantika wakes up in the lab, where the teacher greets her while surreptitiously arming herself with a scalpel....

She flings it at Avantika's head.... ... but Avantika catches it with her lightning-fast reflexes and flings it back, marking her teacher on the face....

The teacher grabs for her guns and fires, ...but Avantika ducks out of range and slams through the lab window.

The teacher proceeds cautiously through the corridors, calling out into the room... "Avantika, there's nothing we can do about it. These are my orders."

A shadow darts by, and the teacher heads after it. From behind, Avantika grabs her and wrestles her in close holds, causing the guns to fire in random directions.

Finally, Avantika kicks the guns out of her hands, and they go diving in opposite directions, both grabbing one. Avantika's faster, and shoots the teacher in the shoulder... The teacher comes up to take a shot anyway... .... and Avantika fires a second shot, killing her.

Now Avantika remembers Yumi's last words, and heads back to that secret restricted lab, where she sees with horror the bodies strapped to slabs, still moving under their plastic coverings...

Uncovering a few bodies, she finds her missing classmates, one of whom mumbles, "It hurts so bad...save me..."

A flashing alarm message on the computer screen grabs Avantika's attention....

First, it states that Sohel has been located and all operatives have been ordered to move out after him...... .... Second, Avantika's escape has been discovered, and agents are ordered to shoot to kill.

Avantika promises her classmate she'll return to save her, then runs out.

-------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, SS1's whole damned militia shows up outside Sohel's hideaway and slowly advances in the building... Not knowing this, Sohel grabs his bag of munitions and heads out amidst Thakur's protests that he's heading into suicide.

Sohel says "Chairman Kanish has been waiting for today's opening ceremony for years; this may be my only chance."

Just then, Sohel's tripwire system is triggered... alerting him to intruders....  He orders Thakur to leave immediately, to go to the Chairman's event.

Sohel moves stealthily through the hideaway, and fires bullets through the glass to strike the shadowy heads just outside. The men start making their way inside, and Sohel picks them off one by one... There are still tons more SS1 agents and he's vastly overpowered, but Mini looks at her incoming death reports with alarm...

Next is a gas attack, but even though he wears no gas mask, Sohel just steps into the smoke and mist and fires away with an unerring aim... Then it's a sheer numbers game as agents start pouring in, but Sohel's so eerily accurate that he takes them down, and this starts looking like a massacre of SS1 agents......

Sohel even pauses to look right into a dead agent's camera, knowing Mini's watching this...

The fight moves outside, and Sohel survives a grenade attack only to find that he's out of ammo and defenseless on the ground, with two men running toward him.

And then...they're taken out with shots from the side... It's Avantika, who covers him and runs toward him, handing him a gun.

Working together, they shoot their way toward his truck....

Inside her own vehicle, Mini takes off her jacket in an angry motion, grabs her own weapon, and heads outside.

Mini positions herself at a distance, focusing her sniper's rifle on Sohel as he comes into clear view. She mutters, "I told you that we'd become enemies... Goodbye."

And she shoots him in the back.

Avantika cradles him, sobbing, and Sohel gasps out to make sure she's okay. With his dying breath, he apologizes for not being able to ensure her happiness... "Protecting you through the end was my last mission. I'm sorry."

Avantika cries over his body, but quickly becomes aware of the danger...

  Mini is on the move, so Avantika grabs Sohel's high-powered rifle and takes cover. She sees a flash of Mini running through the scope, and hears the bang when Mini shoots her comrade to put him out of his misery...

Then, Avantika's voice comes through on Mini's earpiece; she's taken one from one of the dead bodies.

Avantika says  "this is a lot like their training sessions"

Mini ... on seeing a flash of dark hair exposed in her sights ... reminds her " u have never beat me."

Mini: "Today will be our last training session... ... One of us will have to die for it to end."

Avantika: "Why are you doing this to me?...  Manager Mini, you're a good person."

Avantika looks around for Mini's location, but can't find it. ...Mini, meanwhile, focuses her gun on Avantika's head, waiting for her shot...

Mini: "I thought you were like me.... But I was wrong. ... ....This is our fate."

Avantika: "I've heard all about how evil that place is."

Mini: "No, I don't think of it that way. ... We're just on opposite sides."

Mini shoots, her bullet just missing. ... With her location revealed, Avantika shoots after her, getting close but not hitting... Mini runs for the building and finds a new cover...

Avantika: "End this now. ...Is this what you taught me for?"

Mini: "I didn't teach you the most important thing:... How to obey orders."

Mini tears off the earpiece and shoots... Both ladies go on the move, ditching their cumbersome rifles for handguns, and face each other on open ground, firing away...  They both miss, and keep advancing.

Finally, a shot lands: ... Avantika gets Mini in the eye....    And then again... Mini falls, but fumbles for her gun anyway. Her shots go way wide, and, Avantika lowers her gun as she approaches, crying, asking, "How could you do this to me? Even though I hated it, I endured it because of you."

Mini sheds a tear as she laughs a twisted, garbled laugh, and raises her gun to Avantika...

...  Avantika raises her gun and finishes her off.

--------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile...

Chairman Kanish prepares for his big opening, with the nation focused on the news coverage. Thakur tries to convince his police chief of his SS1 explanation, but he has a history of crying wolf and no evidence to back him up.....  He vows that this is true, and stakes his career on it.

Chairman Kanish waits backstage and asks after Mini, only to hear that she's out of contact, as are all the other operatives...

He takes his place and begins the presentation, which includes three case studies that support the miraculous recoveries they underwent under Mirae's care.

Avantika shows up to the building covered in blood and grime... and finds Thakur. She gives him the flash drive, telling him that all of Chairman Kanish's secrets are there ... "Now it's your turn."

Chairman Kanish triumphantly declares the future of health in the country. By using pig, mouse, and dog samples, all they need is human DNA to develop livers, hearts, brains,...

"and even youth."

Just then, one of the members of the press corps screams, breaking up the proceedings....
She's looking in horror at the big screen, and people start murmuring. Projected, are pictures of deformed babies, the secret lab, and the captive test subjects....

While Kanish's men scramble to cut off the images, Thakur enters with his own microphone and unveils the Chairman's secrets to the room, which include not only the tests on people but the recent assassinations...

The chairman's minions start to forcibly remove Thakur, but his boss arrives and finally backs him up... That gives Chairman Kanish the few seconds he needs to escape, and Thakur belatedly pursues.

Kanish orders his helicopter readied, demanding to know where Mini and all his agents are, and arrives at the helipad to find it empty.

A shadowy figure appears on the roof and approaches with guns in hand... He squints and wonders who it is, asking where Mini is...

But it's Avantika, who raises the gun and tells him, "Seeing as I'm here, can't you figure it out? She's probably in hell, waiting for you."

She asks accusingly if he wanted so badly to live so long — he's been extending his life and bolstering it with her stem cells — that he would kill for it.

Reduced to a blubbering, the Chairman confesses, "I'm sorry, Avantika...  But you're my daughter."

Stunned, she lowers her gun and mutters incredulously.... She accuses him of lying, but he tells her that it's true...

That he's dying and needed her cells to live.... ...  She screams at him to shut up, gun aimed again, and tells him she has no father: "Bring back my mother!"

He begs her to let him live. Thakur and his cops are nearby, just below, as they hear a gunshot. Thinking Avantika in danger, Thakur races up to follow the sound....

On the rooftop, Chairman Kanish takes the dropped gun — Avantika is gone now — and turns it on himself. ...  As the cops arrive on the rooftop, he pulls the trigger and falls back, dead...

--------------------------------------------------------

Two years later...

Thakur catches a criminal, sporting a new hairstyle but full of the same cheeky bravado as before, and arrests him for drug use... He stops to wonder how Avantika fares these days, not seeing her emerging from the cafe just moments after he leaves.

She's with those three bitchy girls, who are now her friends. They're all students in university now, talking about things like MTs and future graduation trips.

But bumping into this dull scene... is a woman, who hits Avantika's shoulder as she walks by. Immediately, Avantika is alert to danger, and makes an excuse to send off her friends so she can confront this new conflict....

At a distance, the woman stops, dressed in kimono(a long, loose traditional Japanese robe with wide sleeves, tied with a sash) ...and bearing a sword.

She turns and murmurs in Japanese, "I've been waiting for this moment for a long time."

Facing each other, the woman shouts, "Now, shall we begin?!"

Out come the blades, and they charge....
