Arjun's pov

Today is the end of our gurukul I am really happy I will be seeing mata again after so many years but.. I am also sad I am going to miss my gurukul days and gurumata kripi

"Bhratha hurry up ..! " I turned around to see sahadev calling to me and I  nodded They were a little ahead of me

"Arjuna where are you lost ?" Asked bhratha bheem "bhratha must be thinking about someone special 😉" respond nakul instantly  I just rolled my eyes at him 🙄

"I am only enjoying the view of nature look how peaceful it is" I said bhratha yudhishtira agreed with me and we continued our journey to the palace our cousins and guru dev are way ahead of us they must have already crossed this forest

My thoughts got broken by a loud sound everyone stopped we looked at each other " we should check what it is" I said all agreed and starting going towards the source

Karna's  pov

"Putra karna you have completed your education I am really proud of you"
gurudev praised me " you have thought me so well and were like a father to me guru Deva please tell what gurudakshina
I can give you" I said

"There is something I want you to do for gurudakshina.. but will you accept it?" Said gurudev looking at me

"I will accept whatever you give gurudev, whether a  curse or a boon" I said a knowing smile formed on gurudeva's lips as if expecting my reply

"I want you to use the knowledge given by me for dharma and if you use it for adharma the knowledge will leave you when you need it the most" gurudev said  his eyes focused on me to see my reaction

"I will fullfil the gurudakshina gurudev " I said " why did you accept without hesitation ?"  gurudev asked me his face unreadable I smiled and said "I know you will always want  good for me gurudev you have taken care of me as your own son "

"You always impress me son ,I want to give you this bow it is no ordinary bow it is Vijay bow once used by mahadev himself " said gurudev

"I am hounerd to receive it gurudev " I said bowing then gurumata dharani came and said " be sure to visit once in a while putra"  she said with a kind smile

" I will gurumata" I said after saying goodbye I started my journey back to hastinapur

I was walking down the forest to reach hastinapur I am excited to meet Mata and pitashree and Mata kunti and my brothers as well

I was sad after knowing that I was abandoned by my birth mother but the years I was here  I thought about it from mata's perspective though It doesn't justify her actions I think  she deserves a second chance

I stopped at my tracks when I heard a noise it was a loud cry I immediately started to go that direction
