Advertisement
Six moths have passed in Samragni's rule...
Dp stands before sumi's painting. Sumi is own sister to Dp.
Dp: behan, I have turned your daughter as a ruler on the promise given to you. My sister, if you would have been in this world...
He wipes his tears just then Sanskar comes near him.
Sanskar: Sumi mami is same as Ragini devi...
Dp: yes Sanskar.... And promise me, that you will be with Ragini always and help her.
Sanskar is about to promise him, then they hear a shout. It's Swara. Sanskar runs out.
Swara is standing near Ragini. Ragini is holding a letter and a dove has brought it.
Swara: he is impossible Ragini. While whole kingdom treats you as a goddess, he treats you as his heart goddess.
Ragini: this prince Laksh is becoming mad day by day. He said me that we shall be 'friends'
Swara: you know Ragini, men say that word for next step of becoming lover..!
Ragini fumes in anger. Sanskar comes and grabs letter from her hand.
Ragini: what is this mad act Sanskar..?? it's my personal letter..!
Sanskar: you don't love him, how can it be personal letter? Moreover, remember Ragini, he is the suspect in NIkil's escape.
Ragini: Sanskar, you need not peep in every matter of mine.
Swara: oho..what has happened in between you both? In this six months all enemies of empress has become friends. But, you both best friends are fighting..!
Ragini: swara, he was my best friend. Not now..!
Sanskar: yes..! the care takers are always enemies to people.
Ragini: it's not like care taking. Some insecurity feeling..! you are thinking I'm a woman, I can't handle everything..! right..!
Sanskar: of course, women are woman always..! They are foolish by mind. Weak by heart..!
Ragini shouts Sanskar..! and points finger to him. He becomes calm.
Ragini: stop having men prideness..! Remember men are nothing without women.
Sanskar laughs. He is about to say something, he stops looking at Dp and goes away.
Swara: what happened to Sanskar..? why is he behaving like this?? and Ragini....
Ragini: don't blame me. He has become proudish..!
Ragini is going in corridor alone. A servant gets bumped into her and tray falls from his hands.
Ragini: I'm sorry...
Servant: wah, empress is always a normal girl. She says sorry to servants also..!
Ragini feels it as known voice. She looks at him. He removes the cap. He is Laksh.
Ragini: Laksh...
Laksh: shh... don't shout.
Ragini: why did you come here? Sanskar is anger on you..! I said know.
Laksh: it has been six months I have seen you...how can I be without seeing my friend??
Ragini: friend?? Then why did you write this letter..??
Laksh looks at letter confused. "I didn't write it..."
Ragini shocked: what??
Laksh: trust me Ragini, I didn't send.
Ragini: Laksh..go back to your kingdom soon...

Laksh: but...
Ragini: I said go....
Sanskar just comes and raises sword on Laksh. Ragini puts her sword as defense in middle.
Sanskar: how can you support him Ragini..?
Ragini: you don't have right to harm prince Laksh...!
Sanskar: he is the culprit, he shouldn't be left. Soldiers, arrest him..!
Ragini shouts: Sanskar..! I have said you already not to peep in my matters..!
Sanskar throws his sword angrily down and keeps going.
Ragini to Laksh: see, I have said you not to come and you..!
Laksh: sorry Ragini...
Ragini: go away fast..!
Laksh leaves.
Sanskar comes in front of Ragini.
"You are not fit for being empress..!"
Ragini: what..??
Sanskar: you couldn't have supported him..! you are the other culprit.
Ragini raises her sword against him. He takes his sword and makes defense. He pushes her back.
All the courtiers, Adarsh and Dp come over there.
Dp: Sansakar..! Stop it..!
But, Ragini and Sanskar are not in the status of listening to anyone. Ragini hits him, he puts the sword against again. They keep fighting with the swords.
Adarsh: hehe, they are fighting for fun I think..!
But, a statue beside him breaks with their sword beats.
Everyone looks shocked as they are fighting for serious.
While fighting, Ragini's sword falls down and accidentally, Sanskar's sword tip touches her shoulder and a it makes a deep scratch in her shoulder.
Ragini falls on pillar. Everyone looks shocked. Sanskar stops fighting looking shocked at her.
Ragini was bending her head in disbelief. Swara and Uttara runs to her. Dp comes and slaps Sanskar.
He bends his head.
Dp: : get out of here Sanskar..!!
Sanskar moves away silently.
Ragini sits in her room, raaj vaidy ties her bandage. She is thinking something. Adarsh sits beside her. He tries to feed her something.
Ragini: I don't want to eat anything chote papa...
Adarsh: Ragini....
Then she eats a piece when he feeds.
Swara is sitting with Sanskar.
Swara: what's wrong with you Sanskar..??? how could you behave with Ragini like that..??
Sanskar: it was an accident, I didn't mean to hurt her.
Swara: if you don't want to hurt, then why did you raise swords on each other?
Sanskar: Ragini has changed a lot. She is believing the culprit Laksh, but not me. Why should I stay in this palace? Swara, come with me. Let's go away.
Sanskar holds Swara's hand tightly.
Swara: Sanskar...leave me.
Sanskar keeps taking away Swara with him forcedly.
Swara: Sanskar leave me please...
Then Ragini comes in front of them. Sanskar looks angrily at her.
Ragini: what's going on here?
Sanskar: I'm supposed to not involve in your matters and you are also not..!!
Ragini: of course I will not. But, you are taking away someone who doesn't like to come with you..!!
Sanskar: if she doesn't like also..! she has to come..! and that's my wish..!
Sanskar holds her hand strongly. Ragini keeps sword on his neck.

Ragini: leave her hand and you leave this fort Sanskar. This is Samragni's order..!!
Sanskar leaves Swara's hand.
Sanskar: Samragni devi, today you are ordering everyone that everything is your's...! but, see..! one day, I will come against to you..! I will conquer your all this empire..! then, I will order everyone and you are at my feet..!
Adarsh shouts: Sanskar...!!!!
Sanskar shows hand at him.. "honewali samraat Sanskar...!!!"
Tell Sanskar and looks angrily at Ragini and leaves the fort. Ragini looks on...
Sanskar goes away. Swara and Uttara cries. Dp stands before Ap painting and shed tears. Ragini comes near him and keeps hand on his shoulder.
Dp: I don't have son from today. Samragni, you are my son. And he is not...
Ragini: mama sri, time changes everything. Let's hope Sanskar also changes.
Dp looks on....
Sanskar keeps going away alone on the dark streets and keeps remembering friendly moments with Ragini. (when he saved her several times...when he was protective towards her...and funny incidents...)
Ragini also keeps remembering.... (when she is supporting him in failures...when she is giving him advices...and playing with him)
Sanskar sits on a rock remembering his relation with the fort.
Ragini song in her pov....
'the time is cruel...
Separating relations....'
In sanskar's pov...
'Is the time cruel or..
Relations are weak..?'
Ragini,
'when people are selfish...
What time can do..?'
Sanskar,
'when people misunderstand,
How relations bind?'
Ragini,
'why friend...
Why did you change?'
Sanskar,
'why friend...
Why did you change?'
Ragini remembers the sword fighting between them. She remembers his words,
'one day, I will defeat you...'
Rag: yes Sanskar..! you have defeated me today... not in sword fight, but our friendship...you have broke our friendship..!
Sanskar in that lonely area,
San: you are the reason for our new enemity Ragini. We have turned enemies just because of you..!
Ragini touching her wound on shoulder: I will never forget the betrayal you have done..! it's not about the wound, but it's hurting in heart.
Sanskar: after turning a ruler, the prideness is dancing on your head. I will get you down one day..!
Ragini: u can't touch the throne until I'm alive...!
Sanskar: I'm Sanskar, the son of Durga Prasad...vow to defeat my enemy one day..!
Ragini: I'm Ragini, daughter of samraat Shekar, vow to protect the throne from enemies...!
Sanskar: and you are my enemy....
Ragini: you are my enemy..!!
Both of their eyes were red and showering anger. They are in separate places but they talked like that.
Then someone comes near Sanskar and keeps hand on his shoulder. He turns back.
Sanskar: who are you..??
Person: come with me..!!
Sanskar: tell me who are you first..!!
Person: u want to become samraat and I want my revenge. Our, aims are same. Defeating Samragni..!
Sanskar: I came out of palace that she is supporting a culprit. How would I support a person who destroys this kingdom...!
Person: I'm not the destroyer of this kingdom..! but, I'm the enemy of Ragini devi. Only her enemy, not this empire's enemy. This empire doesn't deserve her..! she is thinking that she is ruling well. But,
Says the person and takes Sanskar with him to a place. He shows some people who are suffering with hunger and poverty.
Person: this is not in this one place..! there are many places like this..!
Sanskar keeps looking at all in disbelief.
Sanskar: why do you need only my help?
Person: because, you are the only correct opponent to Samragni.
Sanskar: but tell me who are you..! show your face.
That person removes the mask and it's Kavitha.
Sanskar amazes: u have even changed ur voice as man. I thought u are a man.
Kavitha in her own voice: we needed to change our identity and everything for this silent revolution. I'm not alone here..! there are many supporters with me..!
Kavitha shows her army. Sanskar is hell shocked looking at them. They are 500 in number... and they have many armors and weapons.
Sanskar in mind: this is not possible without help of any king. Someone is helping them...
Then one boy walks at him. He is karthick.
Karthick: welcome to our silent revolution army... 'andha sena'(dark army)
And you are leader for us..!
Sanskar: why me the leader??
Karthick: bcz, ur the one best than us. U lead us to defeat samragni and we will support u as samraat.
Sanskar agrees. Karthick hugs him. All cheer to Sanskar.. "hail you nayaka..!!"
Next morning, Ragini opens her eyes after a nightmare.
Ragini: I never got any nightmares. But today...
She gets ready and comes to court. Unexpectedly, soldiers bring Nikil before Ragini. He falls on his knees before her.
Nikil: Samragni..plz excuse my sins. And let be live normally. I swear I will never ever turn against to you again..!
Ragini: who has helped you to escape from jail??
Adarsh: samragni, but it's prince....
Ragini shouts on NIkil: who is it??
Nikil murmurs in himself. She loses her patience.
Ragini in anger: drag him into jail and give him whip beats until he says the name.
Adarsh: Ragini devi...
Ragini: enter the next culprit..!
Soldiers say some case on him, Ragini gives that person a big punishment. She does for other two also same.
After court, she sits upset at a pond. Swara comes near her.
Ragini: leave me alone swara...
Swara: but Ragini...
Rag in bit anger: leave me alone...
Swara goes away. Dp and Uttara are looking her from far.
Dp: she is in upset that Sanskar became her enemy. Anger is not good for the emperor. It's a must to make her soft.
Uttara: now, who can sooth her mind pitasri??

Jingyi Bo is in Fates Parallel (An Irreverent Fanfiction)
Fates Parallel is a gripping cultivation story, following the adventures of a half-spirit girl with nothing as she grows both as a cultivator and as a person after arriving at the Grand Academy of Spiritual, Martial and Arcane Arts. It features fleshed-out, believable characters, wonderful world-building that informs the course of the plot, and girls who hold hands. Fates Parallel is a very good story, and you should read it! Jingyi Bo is in Fates Parallel is a somewhat tongue-in-cheek look at this same world from a different angle, following a totally regular girl who brings bad luck with her wherever she goes. It features shallow, joke-name characters, a focus on the least interesting parts of a fantastic world, and girls who hold hands (potentially). Jingyi Bo is in Fates Parallel is an amazingly hilarious (so says me) fanfiction and you should read it! (This is a Totally Author Approved Spin-Off (Fanfiction) for Fates Parallel, which you can find in a number of places including here on RoyalRoad! Please do read it!)

In the near future, most work has been relegated to machines and people are content to spend their time immersed in virtual reality, something they cannot get enough of.

Meanwhile, Lucas Bennett, an anxiety-ridden software engineer, is contracted by the leading artificial intelligence corporation in the US to decipher the inner workings of their flagship AI that have become incomprehensible even to themselves, a job that he is very invested in since he considers technology the solution to his personal as well as mankind’s timeless problems. Unknown to the public at large, the CEO of the company is bent on unleashing the full capabilities of that AI to handle every single aspect of society and individual lives. When all hell breaks loose, the two men and those close to them team up to survive and fight back against the horde of vehicular attackers and the Intelligence behind them while also clashing together over their views: is artificial intelligence a way to humanity’s salvation or doom?
