Swara enters the house while holding a stethoscope in hand and putting a white coat on her arm.

"good morning grandpa..." she kissed deendayal gadodia on the cheek. who was sitting in the head seat?

"good morning...." he kissed her head.

"why are you ready so early morning?..." she asked while seeing him ready in police uniform.

"Today a very important witness is going to give his statement... therefore I am leaving early, I don't want anything to go wrong"

"anything special..." Swara asked, picking up a glass of juice and starts taking small sips.

"very special..." he said and swara nodded after putting an empty glass on the table.

"don't sleep without eating anything..." he said while getting up from the chair.

"grandpa right now just want to sleep...I will do breakfast after getting up."swara said while yawning.

"ok...but don't eat anything rubbish after getting up," he said, kissed her head again, and left after picking up his cap and keys from the table.

"I hate night shifts...."swara murmured while rubbing the back of her neck and goes toward her room to crash on the bed.

MAHESWARI MENTION

A big lash green garden is shown in which a long row of targets are placed in a clean row and sanskar is shooting at them while keeping his arm fully extended.his eyes were fully focused on the centered back spot and his bullets were hitting it with a milliseconds difference.

"king!...."one man suited in black bowed his head after standing behind him at some distance.

"what is it?..."sanskar asked him without a single change in his facial expression.

"mishra is going to give his statement today and IG daandayal has given him full security," he said in an obedient tone.

"When that old fogy is going to retire?...."sanskar asked while there was a smile on his lips.

"not soon...."

"he will issue an arrest warrant after taking a statement...isn't he?"

"he will dare not....just give me your command, and we will handle him," he said in deep anger filled voice.

"what can you do?..."

"he only has one granddaughter. we will kidnap her then he will not able to sign an arrest warrant."

"he is an old man but still he is doing so much hard work then I should give him some reward..."sanskar said with a smirk on his face. he stopped pulling the trigger and looked toward his man.

"get my men ready, I am going to the police station and bring his granddaughter there...let me finish this once and for all," he said in an icy cold voice.

"king!..." the man bowed his head and left.

******************

POLICE STATION

sanskar entered inside daandayal office with a few 10 men beside him. men behind him quickly captivate a few policemen who were inside the office.daandayal looked at him with a shocked expression as he sit just opposite him.

"you were going to come for me after this so I thought not to waste time, "sanskar said with a smirk and looked at mishra(witness) with his cold steely ice then took out a gun in a blink of a second and pointed at him.daandayal got up from his chair and pointed a gun at sanskar.

"don't..."daandayal said in deep anger filled voice.

"Why don't you take a look at the door?..."sanskar said in the same tone. daandyal moved his gaze to the door.

"what is this?..."swara mouthed to him and looked at the black-suited person who was keeping the gun at her head while holding her one arm in a tight grip.daandaya's grip on the gun loosened, seeing swara.sanskar's men kicked daandayal's chair, took the gun from his hand, and held his both hands behind him.

"i...i...ple...please...forgive me...plea...please...i...."mishra stammered, got up, and sat on the floor with bended knees while shivering badly. his sentence was not completed when sanskar shot him and he fell on his back with a thud sound.daandayal closed his eyes seeing the witness dying.

"you made a huge mistake by doing this in my station....."daandayal said in anger filled voice.sanskar chuckled humorlessly.

"Why don't you retire, "

"I will retire after sending you behind bars....."daandayal said while wiggling a little.sanskar laughed at that.

"Therefore I like you....you can only dare to say this to me. why don't you understand you can't do anything... at least not in this life... not in this city...take retirement and spend rest of your life peacefully at home otherwise I will retire you from your life."sanskar said while pointing a gun toward him now.

Swara hits her elbow joint in the chest of the person who was keeping the gun on her head then holds his arm, twist it down and make him shoot at his leg then takes the gun from his hand and shoot at two men on shoulders who were holding daandayal's arms then walks forward, hits gun's end at sanskar's elbow takes the gun from his hand and keeps it on his head. everything happened in the blink of a second.

"he will take retirement with his wish...."swara said while standing behind sanskar.

"ask all the men outside to drop all their weapons...."swara said to a man who was giving her death glares at her. she moved forward and picked up handcuffs from the table, still keeping the gun on his head.sanskar takes a small glimpse of her face before her hair fell on her face and she moved back.

"you are still standing there, do you want me to open the head of your boss?..."swara asked in an irritated tone, seeing the man still standing there. the man looks at sanskar and he nodes and the men go outside.daandayal goes and checks the breaths of the witness.daandayal looks at swasan and then goes out to see the condition.

"you get up...."swara said to sanskar.

"GET UP..."swara stressed the nozzle of the gun on his head, seeing him not bugging a little.

"you will regret this...."sanskar said in a deadly serious tone while getting up.

"seriously you are saying this to me....when I have kept a gun on your head,"swara said in a sarcastic tone, holds his hand and tried to pull it back but his hand didn't move a little and swara staggered a little behind him.sanskar smiled.

"Aish!.... I should have done breakfast."swara muttered and pulled his hand with full might and this time she was able to do this successfully after putting his hand in handcuffs she pulls his other hand and locked his hand at his back and push him toward a cell.

"when did you learn shooting and why didn't you tell me."daandayal asked from swara in normal tone as it was nothing.he just came inside.

"i thought you will not agree therefore....you are not angry?"swara asked with squinted eyes as she was pushed sanskar inside cell.

"why should i?...your aim is very good,i am proud of you..."daandayal said with smile after standing beside her.

"really?...."swara asked while looking at her grandfather in disbelief as she was locking the cell.he nodded at her.

"when did you learn it?...."he asked in curious tone.

"during night out with friends and you know i practiced on your guns.."swara said with smile and looks back at lock as key was not moving inside.

"you are grounded for a month..."daandayal said in serious tone,making swara's head jerk toward him.

"but grandpa...didn't you see it turned out so beneficial"

"one month plus one week..."

"i just saved your life..."

"one month plus two weeks...."

"can we do this conversation at home?...."

"one month plus three weeks...."

"Aish! i wish i could have resume everything."swara muttered in audible voice with twitched nose,locks the cell and gives keys to daandayal,looked at him with angry blue eyes and walked toward door.

"do their dressing then leave..."daandayal said,seeing her leaving angrily.

"sorry grounded people are not allowed to do any work."swara said while kicking a chair in her way.

"now you are grounded for two months....."daandayal said in loud voice.

"whatever..."swara muttered in annoyed tone and leaves.daandayal shook his head a little and looked at sanskar who was looking toward door from which swara had left.

"after seeing you like this....i think now i should take retirement ...."daandayal asked with victory smile.

"then how will you protect your granddaughter...."sanskar asked after looking back at him with devilish smile.

"don't you dare to look at her with bad eyes...."daandayal said getting angry at that.sanskar smirked increased.

***********************

NIGHT

"shona get up...don't you have to go hospital..."daandayal said after sitting beside sleeping swara and caressed her head.

"i hate night shifts..."swara muttered in sleep and buried her face in pillow.he chuckled at that.

"but duty is duty...you have to go no matter how much you hate it and i have called few police officers for your security...then will reach here any moment,take them with you"

"grandpa no....i don't want to take any security,why should i take security"swara said in irritated tone,finally opens her eyes and looked at him.

"swara don't argue...its not safe for you now,king gave me warning to harm you"

"who?..."swara asked in confused tone.

"you forgot the morning incidence..."

"but he is behind bars then what's the need to take tension...."swara said in careless tone.

"swara!....do what am i saying? is this necessary to argue ever time i say something to you.you are just like your father,never listens to me.he also never listened to me."

"okay!...okay i will take them,no need of this emotional blackmailing"swara said,agreeing quickly seeing him starting drama.

"good...now get up."daandayal said.

"you know grandpa i used to be so proud that my grandfather is IG of mumbai city but today you disappointed me a lot.from now i will never tell my friends that you are my grandfather...you cut my nose." swara said in very disappointed tone.

"you cut my nose daily but i don't say anything....and look at you"he said he slaps on her cheek with love.

"what did i do?...."swara with squinted eyes.before he could have said something his phone started ringing.he picks up call and his face expressions turned serious.

"i am coming..."he said and got up.

"what's wrong?...you are looking serious."swara asked,seeing his serious face.

"nothing.....take guards with you and be careful."he said kissed on her head and leaves in hurry.

"i was thinking....he kept YOU captive in your station when all policemen were present then if he will come for me than what will few policemen be able to do?"swara muttered to herself then shrugs the stupid thoughts and buried her face in pillow again.

After 10 minutes a small caramel colored round clock started ringing on her side table.swara cursed under her breath and moves her hand to stop the alarm,she slaps on its top and it falls down.she cursed again and moves to side and looks down at the dial with blurred vision.

"oh shit!...i am late."swara's eyes got wild open seeing the time and she falls down from bed.

"AA! my back..."she cried but quickly comes out from blanket runs toward wardrobe.she takes out one hanged dress and run toward washroom.she takes quick shower and comes out in the dress and moves toward mirror while rubbing her wet hair with towel.she throw towel on bed and start combing her hair.

"i hate night shift...i hate night shift..."swara keeps on muttering same thing while combing her hair.she puts comb back and was going to pick lip-gloss when lights went out.

'what the hell!!!!...i am already late."swara cried and moves toward her bed while tracing things she strikes with side table and was going to fall down when someone holds her from arm and pulls her back in such way that her back gets attached with hard chest and her both arms get locked in front of her in cross.

"who...who is this?"swara asked and struggled to come out from his strong grip.

"i warned you,you will regret it..."sanskar whispered near her ear,making her froze in her posture.
