" Haalo this is king of Junagarh ", he said.
" Yes Mr. Thakur", said a man.
" I need a help", he said.
" Tell me", said the man.
" A girl named Devika. Everything on her", said the old thing. Parents, marriage, kids", said the king.
" Very well sir", said the man.
Meanwhile
Kiara was trying to look in the old photographs again. They were searching together until she scrambled upon a picture of Vibha.
" Wait", she said to Maddy.
" You got something ", he asked.
" Yes this is my grandmother with her", she said. " I have seen my grandma's pictures though she died before I was born".
" The families knew each other", said Maddy.
" Who is this girl", said Kiara.
" Looks like a friend of Vibha", said Maddy.
" She is in multiple pictures with him. Wait a minute", she said.
" Look a silhouette of man in these holiday pictures", said Kiara.
" Must be a relative", said Maddy.
" Except", said Kiara zooming in. " He is wearing this bracelet.
" What's so special about it", asked Maddy.
" Solly researched a few bikers gangs in Europe. Each had a unique symbol to them. There was a gang called skorpious and this bracelet was a trinklet a kind of symbol for that group. Sourish was in skorpious gang. There use to be an annual race. Probably we can have a photograph."
" Good work " , said Maddy. " On it".
Meanwhile
Raj was preparing for his internal vote in Bhishma and with council of ministers.
" There could still be Cobras in there", warned Rahul.
" I agree", said his twin. " And we have no idea which one".
Parth for one thought Rahul. He was able to exclude him from this meeting.
" You should look at our estates", he said.
" The entire kingdom and factory ", he said.
That would be a three day tour and we will find something by then he thought.
Parry took him to show the estate. And he will keep a good eye on him.
" Rahul", asked Raj.
" Ohh yeah I was thinking about my investigation of cobra", he said. "That Indian girl with Sourish. What's her name"?
" What about her", asked Solly.
" We got a girl named Devika, probably her friend. If we can locate her maybe we can find something ", said Rahul.
" On it", said Solly.
" Good work", Raj said to Rahul.
" I am with you on this. He killed both our mothers", said Rahul.
" However bad she was", Raj assured his brothers. " She loved you both unconditionally. And I am sorry for you".
Rakesh broke down.
" I.. Me.. ", he sobbed.
His brothers hugged and consoled him.
Raj had lunch with Kenny. Gaurav joined him.
" That man Parth is bad news", said Gaurav to Raj.
" What happened ", asked Raj.
" He keeps on ordering everyone as if he owns this place", said Gaurav. " Tried to fire a driver today for not opening his door. He wished for throne when I first met him. "
" Really ", asked Kenny.
" I was there. So was Solly. I was shocked and disgusted by his greed ", said Gaurav.
" Did he fire anyone ", Kenny raised a brow.
" No. I reminded him of his status and he gave me a chilling look", said Gaurav."Raj beware".
Raj thought for some time.
" I shall be careful. Thanks", he said.
Rahul said the same...
" I am so tired of all these problems. I want you to be king soon", said Kenny.
" Hmm Kenny. Eat sweetheart ", he said.
The topic changed as they ate. Raj discussed his work as a parliamentarian and they gave their views.
Meanwhile
King Randheer got a clue. A wedding card. Yes his spies did a good job. And a wedding photograph.
Devika weds Bhairav
He knew Bhairav. He knew how Bhairav was related to Junagarh. He took out old photographs again and searched hard. He needed more clues but how? Then he got another one from spies.
An infant's death certificate.
A six month child.
Died way back.
HE READ THE NAME..
But that man was very much alive. If the child died. How come this man was alive? He immediately uploaded everything on cloud.
" Try not checking it regularly Rahul. And use my credentials to open it. He should not be on your trail", Grandpa warned him.
" You game is over Cobra ", said the old king.
He has uploaded two wedding photographs and a death certificate on cloud.
Meanwhile
Myra and Shai met Pammi Chadda as Kenny ordered them to.
" It's so good to see you girls", said Pammi.
She was with an old friend.
" You are Vinod daughtr-in -law", said the other woman. " I knew him".
" We're you a friend", asked Shai.
" Kind of", said, the lady. " Tanya Sahay" , she introduced herself.
The girls greeted her politely. Then mentioned Riya in small talks.
" Riya", she remembered. " Mature that woman for her age. Told me to cut losses with fickle men and leave. I took her advice and got married ", chuckled Tanya.
" She took one of them to altar", said Pammi.
" And that too the worst of the lot. Vikram was a manwh*re", said Tanya.
" I am sorry about the attack on you girls", said Pammi. " Was it about the throne"?
She was a gossip. Shai's eye twinkled.
" Ohh no aunty the attack was not on us. It was on a woman named Varsha Moolchandani. We were caught in fire", she said.
" Really. Who was she", asked Tanya.
" A small time actress. I guess your time", said Myra.
" Really. I don't remember ", said Pammi.
" It was in local news", said Shai.
She showed them photograph of the dead girl.
" That's MONICA", said the two women in recognition.
" Monica", said Shai.
" Probably a stage name", said Myra.
" Yeah I remember ", said Tanya. " She praddled around here trying to catch some big fish", said Pammi.
" Got gobbled by a crocodile ", mused Shai.
" That's terrible", said Pammi. " Thank God my child Kenny is safe".
The girls couldn't agree more.
Meanwhile late night
Old king Randheer was aghast.
He looked at the photograph of a young Sourish. He couldn't believe it. It was in one of the old photo albums. And he was searching everywhere in the world. He took a picture and started uploading it.
He knew he saw a ghost.
His son was a photocopy of him....
There was a knock at the door. He opened it.
" You", said the old king.
" You shouldn't have pried. I left you alone. Rajeev was my enemy", said the man as he walked in.
Old king laughed derisevely.
" YOU REALLY ARE A SNAKE", he said.
" And I bite", smiled colonel. " See you in hell".
He raised a pistol and fired...
King Randheer was martyred. Cobra took Sourish's photograph and whistled then he left..
Unaware of a witness called cloud.
Next Morning
" Your highness", said a servant to Rajeev.
He was having breakfast with his wife, Kiara and Maddy. Gaurav has just left to consult Alok on a matter.
" Yes".
"His majesty is not answering the door", said servant.
" Grandpa", he said.
" Yeah".
Raj sensed trouble.
" Get my brothers and come ", he ordered servant. " Maddy get the gang".
" Yes Raj".
They hurried.
As they knocked the old king's door it wasn't answered.
" Break it", said Rahul. He was really apprehensive now.
The men broke the door in minutes and rushed in.
The girls informed the elders as Salman, Alok, Gaurav and Bhanu rushed in.
Raj ran to his loving grandfather.
AND....
Saw him lying in a pool of blood.
" Grandpa", cried the princes as they all broke down.
Ro checked the pulse and slowly shook his head.
Old king has passed away.
Junagarh lost his beloved Patriarch.
The Cobra has Struck.
