"Yeh kya tha?" Nandini stood up angrily. "Giraya kyun?"

"Main koi hindi serial ka hero lagta hoon jo tumhe pakkad ke rakhta?" Manik retorted. 

"Whatever...yahan kya kar rahe ho? Rehearsal karne ke liye bola tha na maine?"

"Arre wahi kar raha tha meri Ma! Paani toh peene jaa sakta hoon na? Uska permission hai ya nahi?" Manik asked sarcastically.

"Oh.....haan." Nandini shrugged. "Par jaldi...uske baad back to rehearsals."

Manik & Nandini entered Swarg mansion together, while Manik got some bottles of water from the fridge and went back to rehearsals, Nandini introduced herself to the elders. While chatting, she didnt notice that 20 minutes went by.

"Beta....Fab5 kya kar rahe hai right now?" Aisha Vedant suddenly asked.

"Woh toh rehearse kar rahe hai." Nandini replied.

"Are you sure? Music ka awaaz toh nahi aa raha hai." Aisha replied. Nandini kept quiet and tried to listen....nothing.

"Oh no...."

"Yeh log aise hi hai. Jaise dekha ke tu yahan busy hai waise hi party karne ke liye bahar chala gaya hoga." Nyonika commented.

"Im so sorry....I'll handle this, I promise." Nandini excused herself and left. She went to the rehearsal studio and sure enough nobody was there. "Oh really now? Mujhe chakma de ke nikal gaye....itna asan nahi hai."

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

Fab 5 were partying in a club while laughing about Nandini.

"I cant believe she actually thought we would listen to her." Aliya laughed. 

"Bechari kitni bholi hai." Mukti chuckled.

"I dont know guys...jaise woh baat kar rahi thi Manik se......woh bholi toh nahi laga mujhe." Cabir replied.

"She could also get in trouble....matlab its her first day as manager and we managed to give her the slip." Dhruv added, feeling bad.

"Wahi toh main chahta hoon. Iss ladki ne mujhse, Manik Malhotra se panga liya hai.....Im not going to make things easy for her." Manik smirked.

While they were talking, a bar tender and a waitress is seen watching them. 

"Yaar forget her guys...let's dance!" Mukti pulled her friends to the dance floor and they started dancing. Two men who look like they are in their 40s start walking towards Fab 5, making their way through the crowd. One man takes out a knife....a few inches away from Manik, he is about to plunge the knife into Manik's back but suddenly he feels a pain in his neck. The man looks back and finds that his partner is gone.....things start getting blurry and he stumbles around trying to look for his friend. The knife he was holding drops to the floor and he falls to the ground unconscious. Finally Fab 5 notices and looks back to see what happened.

"Guys...wahan koi gir gaya hai kya?" Aliya asked. Through the crowd of people, they couldnt see the man properly but saw the back of the bar tender.

"Sorry everyone....looks like he had too much to drink." The bar tender chuckled. "We will help him out...aap sab enjoy kijiye."

The bar tender & the waitress both carry the man into the back room where his friend is seen tied to a chair. They throw him onto another chair and tie him securely too.

"Haye Matarani.....kitna bhari hai yeh dono!" The waitress wiped sweat from her forehead.

"Maine kaha tha, tujhe aur training karni chahiye." A voice spoke from their watches. 

The girl looked annoyed, she pressed a button on the side of her watch and spoke into it. "Shut up Aryaman."

"You shut up Navya." The voice on the watch, Aryaman Khurrana replied back.

"Guys...." The bar tender tried to speak up.

"No YOU shut up!" Navya continued. "Khud toh van mein baitha rehta ho aur mujhe bol raha hai!"

"Oh hello....yeh bhi important hai! Surveillence har kisi ke bas ki baat nahi hai." Aryaman defended himself.

"Guys come on....."

"Haan Haan surveillence ke naam pe din bhaar computer pe games khelta rehta hai bas. As if I dont know! Bhai hai tu mera!"

"ENOUGH!" A girls voice is now heard from the door way. The girl stepped inside & closed the door behind her, she took off her red wig and glasses, dropping them to the ground. It was none other than.......Nandini.

"Thank god tu aa gayi...yeh dono bhai behen mujhe pagal kar denge." The bar tender walked over. "Kabse larayi kar rahe hai."

"Navya, Arya....tum dono ko iss time pe hi larna hai? I have to keep an eye on Fab 5....lekin tum dono ke chakkar mein Abhi ne mujhe bula liya."

Navya glared at the bar tender who was their friend & team mate, Abhimanyu Thakkar.

"Navya." Nandini gave a warning look. Navya looked down with a pout.

"Sorry Nandu." Navya mumbled.

"Sorry yaar." Aryaman also apologized from the watch.

"Good...its ok. Now get these two down to head quarters...I have to go back out varna yeh Fab 5 phirse kahi gayab ho jayega."

"Aur main phirse unka location track kar dunga tere liye....chill Nandu." Aryaman replied.

"I cannot chill. Raj uncle ne humme hire kiya hai to protect them par yeh Fab 5, they are just ARRGGHHH!! Mujhe, apne manager ko bina bataye party karne chale gaye and then they dont even pay attention to whats happening around them!" Nandini ranted.

"Maybe thats why Raj uncle asked you to join as a manager...I mean agar yeh log Manager ko hi chakma de ke nikal jaate hai then just imagine what they would do agar unko paata hota ke tu actually ek special agent hai hired just for their security." Abhi replied.

"Anyways...mujhe jaana chahiye." Nandini put her wig & glasses back on, looking like completely different person. She then walked back out to the main club area and looked around but couldn't find Fab 5. "Dammit...."

Nandini pressed the button on her watch and brought it close to her face. "Arya....they are gone again."

"On it." Aryaman replied. Moments later there was a ding on Nandini's phone. "Bhej diya location....yahan se zyada door nahi hai. Once Navya and Abhi bring these guys into the van, woh dono bhi aa jayenge."

"Awesome." Nandini nodded. She left the club and got into her car which was parked outside, following the gps she found Fab 5 infront of another club. "Not another one....yeh log rehearse kab karenge?"

Nandini quickly changed into another dress and put on a brown wig, taking off the glasses and put on blueish green contact lenses before leaving the car and followed them into the club. From a distance, Nandini kept an eye on them and about 15 minutes later Navya & Abhi joined her wearing disguises.

"Seriously? Dont these guys work?" Abhi complained.

"Wahi toh....its the middle of the day and these guys are partying!" Nandini grumbled. "Im tired of this....inko ghar wapas bhejna hoga."

Nandini & Navya turned to look at Abhi who smirked before walking towards the managers office. After talking to the manager, he came back and rejoined the girls. The manager then came out and kicked Fab 5 out of the  club.

"What the- do you even know who we are? HOW DARE YOU?" Manik shouted. The manager didnt listen and just closed the door on them.

"What was that?" Alia asked. "Humne toh kuch kiya hi nahi."

"Forget it guys....lets go to another club na?" Cabir spoke up.

"Jaoge toh tab na...jab wahan allow hoge?" Nandini whispered to Navya & Abhi. They then called all the clubs nearby and talked to the managers, making sure Fab 5 wasnt going to be allowed in anywhere. The next 30 minutes, they followed Fab 5 around in Nandini's car as Fab 5 went to different clubs but they couldnt even get in. Finally they got annoyed and decided to go back home.
