"We are going to dig a grave, Please don't wait for me it will take time for us". Thakur leaves with the crowd.

Few Days Later...

" Another man found in woods". " I think we should start searching tigers here". Thakur tells his men in a gathering of village.

Nisha gets scared and run away to save herself as she also cross the woods to work in house.

A villager follows her. His name is 'Hari'. A 40 years old man. He is attracted to the beauty of Nisha and always look at her in a sleezy manner.

Everyone is busy to discuss about murders and woods, where he finds a way to finally chase Nisha to know about her home. He follows her secretly that evening and crosses the woods. Nisha feels a presence of someone following her. She turns herself back and finds nothing. Suddenly, she disappears in woods. Hari notice a fire between bushes. He gets closer to that fire and there he see a girl is standing alone with long, straight hair without clothes. She is naked. Her body is glittering and rain starts. She is drenching and her back is curved beautifully. She enjoys every drop of rain touching her body and her anklets are playing song when she is walking. The fire is still burning and Hari gets confused about the place, women and fire which is not diffused in rain.

He feels to get more closer to the naked girl who is now rubbing her body with mud. He feels excited and has a fantasy about sleeping with a naked girl. He take mud in his fist and gets closer to girl, he touches her back and finds the girl has no Eyes, her hair is nothing but a bunch of snakes coming out from her head and she has skin of a reptile. She has dark appearance and she kiss Hari with her bifurcated tongue. He screams and dies there with shock.

Next Day...

Thakur comes to the village with body of Hari and repeat his orders. He ask his men about presence of tigers but they confirms there are no tigers.

"Nisha is missing". Thakur's wife shouts between crowd. She seems scared and worried. " She didn't come to work and her sister said she didn't come home at night too".

Thakur decides to visit her home which is at another side of woods. They all reach at the place where her house used to be. They finds there is no home but only Bale and a man who is looking after his cows.

"Where is Nisha?" Thakur asks the man and look around as if he has reached the correct place.

"I don't know Sahab, No one with this name lives here". "This place is for farmers and herds, it is a restricted area for any other man". Everyone seems shocked and wondering about Nisha's real home.

"Do you know anyone lives near woods? " " A girl and her sister who are of 20 years". Thakur asked the man.

"No Sahab, I know this place for very long. It's been 20 years and no one lives here. Even, we are not allowed here after sunset". The man confirms about locality of that place.

Thakur now seems more worried and surprised to know about Nisha's lie about house.

A man from crowd asks " why this place is restricted after sunset?"

"The people around these woods says it is a curse of a demon". The man starts to tell about curse.

" Long ago there was a girl from a village who came here with her household stuff to start a life in woods. She was beautiful, her eyes were like a fish and her face was sharp. She had beautiful voice like a sweet melody. She lived alone and never allowed any man near her hut".

" One day, a man came and he looked at her hut to know her life. He found out that she was involved in black magic. She used to keep skin, skulls and bodies in her home. That man got scared when he saw that girl has a face of evil". " She had skin like a lizard or any reptile, tongue like snake, dark color without eyes on face, she was very ugly, but she can sense everything around and kill every man comes to her home".

The crowd got scared to hear this description.

Man continues the story " She sensed his presence and paralysed him but suddenly she felt presence of villagers around so she didn't attacked him".

"The man then directed everything to villagers before dying". " Villagers tried to search that girl but she was not there and then she killed everyone one by one".

Thakur listen this story and relate it with Nisha. He understands that she is not missing.

Everyone heads to their village and Thakur decides to stay in woods. He take his servants with him to find Nisha.

"We will find her this evening, everyone spread yourself". He orders.

He enters the deeper part of woods with lantern in one hand and sword in another.

There is a pindrop silence. He can hear crawling of insects. A sudden sobbing voice comes from woods. Thakur focus his ears in one direction. This sobbing is low in volume. He walks towards bunch of wood stumps. Someone is sobbing from there, Thakur goes near wood stumps but finds nothing, no one is there. He tries to look into the bunch and a scream with high pitch push him away with winds. He gets scare. His ears pains with bleeding. And then he faints.

Thakur slightly open his eyes and finds himself in a hut with Bale. He is surprised and look around to see an escape. He sees a door behind his head and he opens it but finds raining weather and a beautiful lady standing with burning hay. Her curvy back attracts him and he wants to see her face. He touch her body and see her burned face, a lizard's skin texture and tongue like snake. Thakur looks into her eyes and recognize her. She is Nisha.

She peels her skin with her tongue and her hair has small worms which sticks to Thakur's flesh and he dies.

Nisha leaves the place and never came back to hunt any man.
