Draupadi marrying a brahmin made a commotion all over kings raged and marched towards them to kill both the draupadi and arjun but they were stopped by karn who ordered all of them to retreat to their places .

vritika , karn and other kauraus all went back to hastinapur on orders of gandhari as she wanted to see their all children and even anwita and mayank were invited. They all understood that the person who has won the Draupadi's hand in marriage is none other than pandu putr Arjun. And the rest who were assisting him were other Pandavas .

Time lapse
Draupadi was feeling nervous to enter her new life and new home will they accept her? Will they let her be their family member? Do they treat her with respect? Will their marriage get the respect needed?.........

yudhistir

I don't know what to do ? Panchal  Rajkumari has divided among us five brothers it's harsh on her. I don't know whether she can love all of us equally because even I know it's impossible but now the question is will I able to give her space in my heart. she has gained immense respect when she decided to divide herself to keep us united the most I can do is to protect her from this harsh society that will call her names.

Hastinapur palace

All elders of the Hastinapura were waiting near the entrance as they received that Pandavas were going to coming back they were not still well versed with the news that of the marriage of Draupadi with all the Pandavas. But all the youngsters were not present god knows where they are and what they are doing?

"Gandhari where are the children," Dhritarashtra asked her making her sigh dramatically "what do you think Arya if all our children at one place where they would be, all of them were up till late at night and all are in the common room sleeping till now, only Mahadev knows what to do with this bunch of idiots and other two monkeys are going to join today they will just change whole palace structure," she said making all the others chuckle

Soon they viewed a chariot from which gandhar naresh shakuni got down making vidur and bheeshm sulk with much trails they were able to sent this fellow away but he is back again like boomerang

"pranipat jijashree , pranipat mahamantri pranipat mahamahim" he greeted all of them with an extra toothy smile. Gandhari was having a gut feeling behind her brother's arrival there is some reason

"I have listened that Pandu putr and rajmata Kunti are arriving alive so thought to pay a visit to Hastinapura so that I can meet them," he said showing his not so white teeth "you did a nice thing Gandhar naresh by coming here, that way you can also look how safe and sound they are" bheeshm replied sarcastically

the announcer announced that Pandavas along with their mother and new bride have arrived. As soon as they have arrived gandhari's , bheeshm and vidur's face broke a large smile but dhritarastra and shakuni were neutral .

"Kunti you don't know how happy I am after feeling you again," gandhari said hugging her close to her heart both were having tears in their eyes "Jiji I am so happy to meet you again," Kunti said breaking the hug. All of the pandavs greeted all the elders taken their blessings

"If you were alive then why didn't you come before only pandu putro " Shakuni questioned them making bheeshm and vidur facepalm themselves "we wanted to stay in between people for some time so that we decided to stay hide our identities for some time" Yudhishthira answered making him shut his mouth.

"kunti where is kuruvash's second daughter in law and my third daughter in law" gandhari asked making all of them confuse "Jiji what do mean by that" Kunti asked confusingly making Gandhari smile

"Duryodhana is married to Bhanumati a few months back and even Karn is also my son so his wife will also be my daughter in law," gandhari said making Kunti overwhelmed with emotions listening that her elder son is married and even she was not there to give her blessings to him and his wife

"then she your fourth kulvadhu mata bhrata bheem is married to hidimb's sister hidimba and they have a child ghatotgach too" arjun said making shakuni laugh hysterically

"married to an asur hahaha now what days this hastinapur is going to see and even have a child" shakuni saying so laughed loudly suddenly he heard a voice from behind making him frighten "what do you mean by saying this are you saying we asurs are low" a voice said in middle of air making all of them gasp

"ahhh" shakuni shouted when he turned he saw mayank was standing there with cold look towards him "some of our asurs might be bad but even some good members and you humans are even more worse than us asurs sometimes someone like you" he said making shakuni gulp his saliva down

"mayank don't mind my bhrata's words and leave him for this time for me" gandhari pleaded him "kaki I am leaving him only for you or else I would have fed him for rats" he said making shakuni shiver "I ... I am sorry asur yuvraj" shakuni shattered

"Putr mayank come here"gandhari called him front , yudhistir was having mixture of emotions inside the name mayank was giving him pain his jaw was tightened seeing him .

"Mayank meet them they are pandavs and she is my sister kunti" she introduced them he just folded his hands to greet them "kaki vibha, karn , aur baki sab kaha hai" he asked "They are still sleeping and where is anwita"

"she is on her way something important came in her way so she halted" he said listened some foot steps turned to see karn and other kauraus are there they immediately embraced him

"Where are the ladies and ashwa" mayank asked them "obviously both dushala and bhanu and ashwa are tales of my bhabhi ma and doesn't give me space to grab her" duryodhan said rolling his eyes

"oh please bhabhi ki puch stop it she is my wife but because of all you she is ignoring me so don't sulk more or i will go with her to lanka for six months" karna said making elders chuckle

"putr bheem i don't have any objection with hidimbi or your son untill they don't trouble anyone and i consider them my family" bheeshm said with a smile making bheem beam in joy

"kunti call my daughter in law first" she said making kunti nod and ordered dasis to bring her slowly dasis brought draupadi from the palki all smiled seeing her she was adorable and elegant in her way and was termed to be most beautiful woman in the world

Gandhari touched her face lovingly "I may not see you putri but I can sense that you are perfect for my putr Arjun" she said caressing her face

But all pandavs started feeling nervous they knew what was going to come next . In mean time bhanumathi and dushala also came there bhanumathi didn't like presence of Shakuni at all she slightly moved towards bheeshm

"Pitamaha what is this snake doing here" she whispered going near him "he just need a excuse to come to Hastinapur Putri , he is attached to Hastinapur like a leech" bheeshm gritted his teeth

"How I wish I could have sent him to hell instead of sending him back to Gandhar" bhanumathi sighed seeing him standing there with irritating smile

"If I wouldn't give his father the wish to keep him alive I would have thrown him to rats before itself , we will look at this point later how to eradicate this virus from here now just concentrate on the proceedings here later we can deal with him and I give you all permission to prank on gandhar raj I hope you understood" he replied making bhanumathi smirk devilishly and gave a slight nod in reply

"Arjun come front putr and take blessings with your wife" Gandhari asked him but all five pandavs came front to take blessings

"Bless all of us mata we all are also married" all of them said making them confuse "then where are the other Four brides purto" Dhritarashtra asked them

"We five have married to Draupadi only" all of them said at once making the thal in Gandhari's hands slip

"What is this a kind of joke" karn yelled at once trying to register the things happening "this is adharm, I didn't know that you all can do this kind of adhram" bheeshm yelled making them startled

Shakuni was silently smirking at side he had already knew from his spies about this information and visited to experience the drama taking place

"I cannot accept this marriage" bheeshm announced kunti tried to speak but Dhritraashtra silenced her seeing his tatshree's anger but before he could leave

"Bhrata they haven't done any adhram" a voice said making some of them frown , but Draupadi was not able to understand what was going around first some unknown faces then all drama

"What do mean vriti that I would sit and see them dividing a women between five of them" bheeshm lost his temper but vritika slowly walked and placed a letter in his hands making him frown

After reading whole thing he composed himself and sighed at once "I accept this marriage though it is adhram but it is dharm by the situation caused and even rishi Ved Vyas ji has claimed this marriage to be a righteous one who are we too judge it now" bheeshm though sounded displeased by the fact but still tried to calm himself

Shakuni tried to speak but had shut his mouth seeing vritika's glare on him. Anwita who followed behind vritika handed Gandhari thal and asked her to welcome the new bride reluctantly Gandhari welcomed her with all rituals inside .

All Vanar Sena has moved in immediately as they didn't wanted to indulge themselves in all this

Draupadi was taken to her room and to rest before other rituals starts , kunti was totally sweating after seeing vritika in the palace she was clutching her heart near . All insecurities were running inside her about her first born her niece and all

"Arya can I ask you something?" Draupadi asked yudhisthir snapping him out of his thoughts "yes Panchali you are free to" he tried to return her the smile

"Mm what is Rajkumari vritika doing here isn't she Dwarka's Rajkumari and what's her relation with pitamaha" she asked making his heart sink on listening the name of vritika Before he could answer arjun took the initiative.

"Panchali there are many secrets about our cousin I mean Rajkumari vritika she is not only sister of Madav but also foster sister of pita maha and she has broken her ties with Dwarka long back so don't utter about that in front of her she is short-tempered but she is the reason that we all are alive in front of you. she saved us from that tragic incident and she is asur Yuvraj Mayank's wife I think so till now" Arjun completed not wanting Yudhishthira to answer about vritika as he knew that would heart him

"Pranipat" bhanumathi entered their common room "ji Pranipat devi" all of them greeted her "I think we haven't had a proper convo I am bhanumathi wife of Gandhari nandan Duryodhan kaling kumari" she said with a smile

Kunti gestured nakul , Arjun and sahadeva to take her blessings "Kalyan ho ! Actually mata has called all of you as drupad kumari is not well versed with all the family members here" she escorted all of them till the main hall

Gandhari moved towards Draupadi and brought her to the centre where all others are seated in round "putri I want you to meet all the persons in the family as you are a part of this family now. I think you have met tatshree Arya , Vidur and bhanumathi but let me introduce you to others he is my brother Shakuni, she is your only sister in law dushala, he is yuyutsu, he is Vikarn, this is dushasan and Duryodhan ......" she introduced all the hundred sons of her

"These people are blood related putri but sometimes bonds doesn't form from only blood but also by hearts and there are some relations which are linked to us and you should know first she is anwita she like dushala to me asur raj Bali's daughter, he is Ashwatthama son of guru drona and king of northern Panchal , he is Mayank asur yuvraj and he is karn a friend of Duryodhan my elder son and samrat of Aryavart and let me introduce his wife" she said pulling vritika infront who was at back listening to all those

"She is vritika sister of tatshree, foster daughter of Devi ganga ; and you know sister of Dwarka siblings not only that lanka Rajkumari vibha and wife of karn samragini of Aryavart my sweet loving elder daughter in law more to my daughter" she introduced vritika making all of them gasp

Draupadi
I thought I wouldn't be welcomed at first . But Rajkumari vritika helped me they were a bit reluctant still all of them accepted me with open heart but I was never known that she was samragini of Aryavart but what arya said she was wife of asur Yuvraj right then ???? But I could see pain in face of arya putr yudhisthir and fear in face of mata kunti

Yudhisthir
I didn't knew how to react; nothing seemed correct to me first my marriage and second seeing vritika in Hastinapur more over I didn't think that she is wife of karn not Mayank but how is this possible? And that means she loves karn ? My mind is totally blank I didn't knew how to react ..

Kunti
That means my karn is married to vritika itself . What if she has told him about my truth ? Have he knew about it ? After knowing would he hate me ? Will all my sons abandon me after knowing the truth? No this I am not letting to happen I have to talk with her first I have to request vritika to not to reveal my secret .... I can't loose everything by one truth no not at all
