Raghav instructed something before picking up, Farhad messaged someone."Bol Daniel..Kaha Hai Mera Pallavi.Dekhna Hai Mereko Abhi Ka Abhi ""Very Good. I am impressed with your smartness. Yes ! Dany. John's brother... Why So impatience ?? Seems like you love her so much. Oh Gosh. Can't imagine how much you suffer if I kill...""Daniel.. You Moron, Don't you think of that thing ..." Raghav yelled at top of his voice."Relax Bro, I am just kidding. So You passed your exam and it's time for your reward. Turn on your Message Box... "Raghav clicked on the link and receive a feed of video footage... There was Pallavi sitting helplessly tied on the chair... Her ankles and wrists were tired along with her mouth sealed with a tape. She look totally exhausted, Her beautiful face turned pale, silky hair became Messy, clothes were dirty and muddy, cheeks turned red in pain... crying miserably upon her situation... Raghv couldn't see her like this.... All of the strings of his heart broke apart all of a sudden."Pallavi.. Pallavi, Don't worry.  Pallavi, Tum Darneka Nehi..Aur Roneka Nehi, Mai Aa Raha Hai Jald....Mai Tumko Jarur Bachalega...Tereko Kuch Nehi Hone Dega.. Bas  Himmat Nehi Harneka...Aa Sari Ka Dukan...Bol Naa, Tereko Sunai Dee Raha Hai Naa...Aa🥺..." Raghav's voice was almost sobbing... soon he realised that that was a live CCTV  recording.. Pallavi can neither see him nor hear to him... only he can see her only.He caressed the pn screen crying 😭 where two of hot tear drops had fallen. "Aa Tu Insaan He Yaa Janwar..Intna Bereham Se Kyon Bandh Ta Hai... Please Use Chod Do.. Daniel." Raghav requested with his sobbing voice."Ohh..Yes I am ruthless...I won't release her like this. You know I am a man of my word.. only Free her after We clear up..l don't want people to say Me a coward.Yes or No ""Aa Mai Tumhare Sara Conditions Mana...Aab Bol Kaha Aaneka...Mai Pallavi Ko Aur Asa Nehi Dekh Sakta... Just Tell Goddammit 😡🥺""Aww, 😏Dard Ho Raha Hai..Good, Very Good. I want You to feel the same pain that I am going through since you killed John... You Leech..😡. So Wait for my call. Better if you don't think of using your born smart brain." "Aaa.. Daniel. You fricking scoundrel..."But he had already cut off the call.After seeing her beloved wife in this situation, he loosed all his calmness... crunched his teeth like a hungry man-eater... where his short tempered version revived again.Farhad came and nodded his head with a"YES ."Anna, Ye Dekho. Ush device Ka IP address..We tracked Him. " Farhad announced excitingly."Very good Farhad..Ek Kam Kar Aur 2/3 Admi Bulale and Sabko Apna Apna Gun Lane Ko Boldee... Can't delay more. Hame Kese Vi Karke Pallavi Ko Bachhana Hai" Raghav loaded his gun and went out like a promising destroyer with a velcano burning in his eyes...***********************He broke apart the wooden doors in go and rushed inside.. Holding his gun on position followed by Farhad, Harish and 3 Others...Raghav instructed Harish and one of his man to search for left side where He himself set off for other side saying Farhad to cover him Up...It was like a huge underground parking area with hardly light connection...Few Rooms Messy and dark...They searched everywhere but found no one.. lastly broke into a room but Alas 😨..It was also empty..a empty chair  in middle of room with untied ropes bound on it... It's the same room he had seen Pallavi was tired upto but Where is She Now... Raghav took a full round view of that room only to find a lying dead body there in the pool of blood..No.No... it's was not Pallavi.. It's a male. But Who is he and Pallavi 🥺... Farhad called everyone to thare and Harish identified that the person lying lifeless is named Shiva and works for Daniel.. But Who murdered him brutally..."Pallaviiii....."Raghav shouted in disappointment 😩..."Par Anna, Bhabhi Kaha Hai..Yeha Toh Koi Vhi..." Farhad asked with a sad face placing his palms on Raghav's shoulder...to console him a little.."Ye Jarur Ush Kutte Daniel Ka Kaam Hai..Lagta Hai Use Hamara Anaka Pehele Se Malum Tha..Usne Pallavi Ko Kahi Aur Legeya..☹️.. Pallaviiii..Kaha Ho Tum...Kyn Venkateswara ... Farhad,   Pehele BaarMujhe Bhahat Darr LagRaha Hai..Kahi Mere Har Kato Se Pallavi Ko Kuchh...NoNo...😭🥺"He broke down kneeling  there throwing his head on that empty chair...Just then His pn peeped..He received."Kyn Raghav Rao, No Wife 😈You know what someone has told me 'Always Keep Your Friends Close To You And Enemy Closer '. I feel so pity man... But it's quite interesting to see you like this.. The So called Don..Man of attitude and Ego.. in tension and frustrations... crying..Oh, So Sad😼.." The caller responded."Hay..Hay..Sala Daniel...Kya Chahata Hai Tum...Kyn Khel Raha Hai Esha...Kaha Hai Pallavi.. Bol." Raghav Asked ."Khel..Yaa Game. It's just started and we are on leavel 1..Much more left to play..You Fed up so early man...We are perfect competiters..Hn Believe Me. I knew before that You will track me down and attack with your gang 😉 as the Connection time was enough to track...So I shifted your Pallavi. Afterall I had to think about my Conquer. Yes or No ""Kaiko Ye Luka Chuppi Khel Raha Tum...Tu Mereko Dek Sakta Hai 🤔Kaha Hai Tum.." Raghav looked around the room and find his answer when saw the CCTV is still on ." KAIKO.. It's Fun Bro, Where am I ?? I am there whare is your Pallavi... I was actually in confusion how to entertain your wife while we are busy but You made it easy by this impulsive step... Thanks Bro. Don't I tell you keep your over smart brain unused for sometime... Raghav, Need to be careful when Odds are in against . Yes or No""Hay.. I know Odds are against me .. But you needn't be overconfident when Odds are in favour... Don't you think about doing anything wrong with my Pallavi Varna 😠🤬..""Oh.. Ho. Audacity. Ok Boss. I am not like you at all. Testing your patience And suffering as you did. So hurry up..See cheak his pocket..Hn that dead body lying there...I told him not to touch your wife but that idiot slapped her..How he dare to disobey me..My Ego hurt and I killed him..I am a man of my word..Yaa ?"Raghav run to him and checked his pocket.. found a visiting card type... There was an address written on it. "Kyn.. Found card..Come on ..come to that address.Hn.. come fast..I hate waiting.. Remember Come along and unarmed.I want an one to one match..A fair game."Raghav cut off the call in a go and started running from there holding that adress avoiding everyone who was questioning him from behind... including Farhad.****************************Raghav get down from his car and rushed to the house in front.The door was halfly open..A big red arrow Mark on wall signing him the direction to follow.. Raghav followed that are finally reached at a warehouse.. maybe used for carpentry purpose...long wooden logs and paint Tabs rolling here and there.. Finally Raghav saw two chairs and a table on  centre.. where a person was sitting on one of them holding a loaded gun and other was empty front to him..."Welcome..Bro. My dearest Enemy... You reached so fast Yarr. Koi Baat Nehi. Have a seat..."His blood red eyes and devilish smile cleared Raghav's all doubt.. That's the devil the Daniel..He was searching for.."Hee, Kaha Hai Mera Wife...Dekh Aab Mai Aageya..Toh Tu Pallavi Ko Chod Dee..Verna..." Raghav growled leaning towards him closer punching  his fist on table."Ok, I will But before that let's be even...Sit.."Raghav seated hesitately."Tell, Why You killed John..Why ??😠""Why...Because He was a bloody criminal..A human dealer... The real monster 👹... Destroyer of hundreds of girl's life..You also..If needed I will kill you also...I have no guilty of that..""Oh..So I am a criminal.. Then you are not a saint ..Raghav Rao, We are almost alike... You know there is nothing like black or white in our world.. Everything is gray.. You smuggle diamonds and I girls.. That's our business and it's mine.. Maybe you are light gray and I am dark.""No..We are not alike.. You plays with innocent lives, Murders girls, their dreams, respect and families...For your benefit..You selfish...""And You Plays with law and order... Murdered my brother, my dreams my life and family..." Daniel shouted at top of his voice." Raghav Rao,  My brother gave me everything..Food, shelter, Money, studies and this luxurious life... That was supposed to be our last ,After that consignment ,He had promised me to leave this work forever.. and went to live with Us on my birthday... You know when was my birthday.. the day after you killed him..😭.He was everything to me..my world... And you killed him..😡🥺It took me a whole week to find his dead body.. But I am giving you a whole hour to you.. Find your wife.. otherwise.."All his words were bounced over Raghav's head as he was only thinking about Pallavi,When He heard Otherwise.."Bol Sale..Kaha Hai Mera Wife..Kya Kiya Tumne Uska Saath." Raghav roared with eyes full of anger and pain."Hay, She hasn't dead yet but has few minutes left..She is in this house..Come on. Find her.. And your time starts Now ...go fast..."This made his blood boil,he grabbed Daniel by his coller, dragged him and smashed against the wall.."Bol Kaha Hai Mera Pallvi...Jaan Legega Mai Tera.. Edharich..""Toh Ye Lee, Take this and shoot me.. like you did with John.. I am already dead before 7monthes ..But remember Only I Know where is your wife..If You kill me then you won't even get her dead body...😈So time is running out..55minutes Left.." He told looking at his watch while handing his gun to Raghav.Raghav concluded that the man front of him is literally a phycho... And he started running around the whole house like a mad shouting his wife's name in repeat.. with a little hope of response ,Searching each room along with washroom and cupboards also including the room where a photo of John was hanging on wall with a burning candle about to finish .His situation becoming complicated with every failed attempt..he had to balance his fear, pain , emotions and helplessness in one hand while his anger, impulsiveness, impatience and anxiety on other hand...After searching Every possible place of house where he could find his Pallavi...He run down to Daniel with burning eyes and attacked him.."Kaha Hai Pallavi..Bol.." Raghav punched Hard on his face."Kyn Mara John Ko.." Daniel questioned back wiping blood stains from face."That's was necessary to save those 20 girl.."Raghav threw him on floor and grabbed his neck."And this is necessary to give peace to John's sole" Daniel replied while he jerked Raghav above him.Both of them fell down and again started head to head...Both pair of eyes had anger, pain and spree to kill eachother. Fight becoming intense with each time Daniel announces the time left...Raghav loosing patience to handle this phycho path.. While thinking about How to make him open his mouth and save Pallavi at any cuss..."Boom💥" A bullet perished on his head and his stiffed body fall down like a log on floor..Farhad entered into the area with some of thier other members."Daniellll.." Raghav shouted looking at that lifeless body."Hee, Udh...Heee Akhe Khol..Tu Ase Nehi Mar Sakta..Bol Pallavi Kaha Hai...😭Hay...Udh. Bol Naaa, Kaha Chupaya Tu Usko..Bol.." Raghav shouting his name, tapping his cheeks, shaking him again and again to wake him up But..He didn't respond.Raghav ,knelt down on the pool of blood..gripping his locks in frustrations..chanting Pallavi's name in a flow...remembering her face, her smile, her anger, how she teases him , How she cares for him, feeds him, hugs him while sleeping, kissed him in fear of losing... In his dark hopeless life, she was the only hope of light...Now he is loosing her...Everything Wii  finish.. and he can't do anything..😭😭For a fraction of second that dead body hallucinated him like Pallavi...He there looking at lying lifeless Daniel..cryed like a kid as he lost his last hope...Punching his tight fest on side wall in frustration and failure...To be continued ⏭️
