Soon the days passed and the day when Karna decided to go to Ujjain has arrived. He was getting ready. He informed Vikram to take care of Anga on his behalf. He reached palace. Gates and saw everyone was there. Ashwatthama, Arjun, Nakul, Sahdev improved in these three and half weeks due to constant guidance and spars. They now have strengthen their foundation and accumulated the experience. They have become slightly formidable than before. Karna even trained the fighting off illusions of Asur's. He trained them trapping in illusions and do mock battle of there it was beneficial for all of them. He never taught them advance techniques or divyastra they had plenty of those. But he trained the to perfect their basics. They too have changed insted of hot headed individual they were before the became calm. It helped Ashwatthama the most. He now didn't have cannot complete control over anger as it was very less time for that but he wasn't guided by it any more. Karna too taught him how to retrieve his all astra including Brahmastra which Dronacharya didn't do. Arjun to become a formidable archer. Nakul now has body coordination in fight, it isn't practiced enough to laet it be natural for him in day to day life. Sahdev has improved the most. He was always more mature and knowledgeable he absorb every thing, he also developed certain instincts in battle but he heavily relies in statergies and manuvering which now are stronger. They all need more real life experience. Dushala was standing with Subhadra and Avantika while Krishna and Rukmini were standing at their sides. Ghandhari and Kunti wa there with tilak thali.

Karna : Pranipat.

Everyone : Pranipat.

Karna : Why are you all here.

Ghandhari : They all has decided to go with you.

Kunti : Me and jiji are here to do your Vijay tilak.

Karna : Everyone it isn't necessary. I will go alone with family of Ujjain. It isn't safe there especially with Dushala and Subhadra.

Ashwatthama : Don't worry about us, we are going there just to see your fight and make sure asur didn't do any underhand tricks.

Arjun : We are Dronacharya disciple, our presense there may intimidate some asurs we will protect our self and commoner of Ujjain.

Dushala (Whining): Brother Karna we want to go and if you don't take us we will go with Avantika's chariot. We are going there you can't stop us Don't worry for my safety I have your gits with me.

Karna knew he won't be able to convince her. He said : “Okay if you want to go you will go but only on my Chariot and you have to promise me you will never climbed down the chariot till the battle finished. Especially you Subhadra last time you have caused severe problem for us.”

Subhadra : I know and I promise.

Dushala : Okay Bhrata Karna I too promise, if you're still worried why not have Avantika too in your Chariot with us it's spacious enough for us and she is a formidable fighter.

Karna : That's good idea, if Princess Avantika didn't mind she can join us.

Avantika : I don't mind Angraj.

Soon the tilak ceremony was done. Everyone got ready to go to Ujjain. Vikramaditya and Mithila was on one Chariot, krishna and Rukmini was on other, boys has taken. Horses to ride and Dushala, Subhadra and Avantika was on Rashmi while Karna driving it. Soon they left the palace band went to Anga- Ujjain borders. Soon they entered Ujjain, Ujjain was also quite beautiful and prosperous. They reached to Ujjain palace where Rajmata of Ujjain was waiting for them with dasi's.

Everyone : Pranipat, Rajmata of Ujjain.

Rajmata : Kalyan ho.

She did arti. Her eyes were fixed on Karna who was also smilingnat her. She invited all of them inside the palace.

Rajmata : Welcome to the palace of Ujjain everyone. Especially you Karna. I am glad you came, You have grown handsomely from the last time we met. You didn't ask my name at that time and called me mother. I too wish you will call me same. My name is Phuspa.

Karna : It's good to see you too. Mata.

Phuspa ( happily) : Me too Putra me too. Like last time you again came to rescue this old lady's family. It seemed god's have made you to protect my family. Fist my son now my granddaughter. It's like it's destiny written by god's.

Karna (smiles) : I don't know about that, I had always believed god had fixed our destination, destiny is written by our choices in life. It was my choice to help you then and it is again my choice to help king Vikramaditya now.

Krishna : Too true, What have you said Karna. Destiny is indeed written by our choices in life.

They discussed for sometime after that they had dinner and went to rest as Tomorrow is the battle with Chandrasur. Karna woke up and went for his morning pooja. After pooja he distributed gold coins to petitioner there. He turned to return to palace but saw Avantika there.

Karna : Pranipat Rajukumari.

Avantika : Pranipat Angraj.

Karna : You are here.

Avantika : I couldn't sleep so came out for walk, river bank stroll is my favourite way to calm myself down. You must be here for you Pooja.

Karna :Yes.

Avantika : Can I ask you something Angraj?

Karna : Yes you can.

Avantika : Why have you agreed to Pitashree even knowing it's battle to death.

Karna : What he asked was righteous and I strongly believe in women consent for marriage. I don't like how most times women were nothing but commodity to men in the society, they marries her for children, they beat them, sometimes the even dare to bet them. This is the reasons of my reforms in Anga.

Avantika : What are you views regarding women?

Karna : Women are god's greatest gift to humanity and men. They are the epitome of selfless love and sacrifice. But all this isn't hidden from you, Rajmata pushpa is proof enough what a women can do for her family. Why are you asking all this to me rajkumari.

Avantika : Nothing just wanted to know your opinion. You have some great ideal it seems from childhood too, I heard from grandmother you answer to Mahadev's question at Ardhnarishwar temple. From whom have you got these principles.

Karna : From my parents, though they were poor but they gave me all their morals and love especially Radha maa. From childhood I didn't want to be known as Adhiratha's son, I wanted the world to know my mother before myself so being a rebel to society I started to call my self Radhey Karna, all suta community calls me so even my Guru use to call me that when they weren't training me. Now a days I go by Angraj but I would rather prefer Radhey over it anyday and everyday.

Avantika : Radhey, somehow it suits you. I will also call you that if you don't mind.

Karna : No, I won't mind. Now you seemed to calm down rajkumari. Why are you so worried when you came here.

Avantika : How can I be not worried, today is the day when asurs will come to Ujjain. I asked myself why Brahamdev has given me this boon. It led my life to confinement though everyone of my loves me and I love them too. You know I was excited when we were going to Anga. It was my first time traveling outside Ujjain. But it has created a problem for you. I am sorry Radhey. Because of me not only whole Ujjain but even you are in danger. My boon has become curse to my family and you.

Karna : It isn't your or your family's mistake. They did what they could to protect you. They even got saint vishvamitra to teach you. They loved you immensely. When there are such love it can't be confinement but protection. They knew your boon and beauty will cause anyone to be greedy for you. Greed is in nature of all, be it Dev, asur or humans. Your family has not confined you but themselves from whole Aryavart for you. Your boon is not a curse to anybody.

Avantika : I know, probably my situation has made me to look for negative only. But it still can't be changed that you will have to face Chandrasur for me.

Karna : To fullfill a petioner requested alms is my dharm, I would fight regardless.

Avantika : Thank you for doing and what have everything for our family.

Karna : I said before I haven't done anything but upheld a promise to myself. There is no need for thanks. Lets go to palace it's getting late.

Avantika : Daanveer indeed. Lets go.

Both of them walked to palace to n silence but both loved eachother's company.. They reached palace to see everyone was waiting. They went near them and told them they are late because they started talking to eachother. Others except Dushala as she was so innocent, started teasing them.

Dushala (innocently) : I told you you all don't need to worry about Avantika, see she was with Bhrata Karna.

Krishna (mischievously) : You are right Dushala. So right you were, she is with Sakha.

Ashwatthama joined Krishna : yes Dushala, it was getting late so we were worried but it seems they lost in each other ( hearing coughs from arjun) , I mean lost talking to eachother that they were late.

Arjun : Can't blame Mitra Karna for this, in company of such beautiful maiden it's normal to loose track of time.

Nakul : So true, Bhrata Arjun.

Karna and Avantika were blushing hearing this. Karna immediately diverted topic and they laughed at his attempt. Soon afternoon came and they all went to remote empty land in Ujjain as it was place fixed for confrontation of Ujjain's chosen warrior Karna and Chandrasur.
