The fight
265 Words
One night Nagasura sent his ambassador to King Rudra.
"My king, Nagasura want your kingdom, Roopnagar. Surrender now. Otherwise, he will attack your kingdom with more than 2 lakhs serpent soldiers." Ambassador threatened the king.
"You have only tomorrow to reply to his proposal." He returned by riding his horse.
King Rudra was worried because of two reasons. Firstly, he had extremely fewer soldiers compared to Nagasura's serpent soldiers. Secondly, he was against the war. He knew if a war broke out, many innocent soldiers could have died. After thinking for hours, he decided to consult with his minister and commander-in-chief the next day.
The next day, a court meeting was held quite early than usual time. Princess Rudrani was present there with other courtiers. King Rudra suggested them to surrender without war because his soldiers could die. Everyone lost in deep thought except Rudrani and Bikram, an assistant commander.
"We're not timid. Although, our soldiers are less in number but they are the world's best soldiers. We can't let them win so easily. We'll fight till our deaths." She roared. Others roared with her.
King Rudra sent a message to the serpent king, "We won't leave our land. We' re ready to fight."
Meanwhile, princess Rudrani fell in love with one of her teachers, Bikram. He was the son of the commander-in-chief. He taught her all the skills like sword fighting, horse riding and many more. He was a soldier c*m assistant commander. She knew her father would never oppose their marriage. But she was waiting for the perfect time.
