The forest was eerly silent ,broken only by the crunch of dry leaves beneath her feets,Sanyukta dragged herself forward tired of walking ,the comforting weight of bow in her hand she didn't know how far she had came and where she have to go, her hairs were messy , scars on hands and feets ,face almost lost its blood , but a desire to survive could be seen in her eyes . The shadows of her past flickered like ghosts ,haunting her every step.
She was still walking without having a destination she couldn't believe what just happened in her life it was like a nightmare for her . Thrown by her own people who someday use to praise her ,the young face which was the light for the family lost its own light ,she tried to go forward but fell on the grass now her mind was numb.
but all of sudden she heard footsteps on the dried leaves which echoed through the jungle ,she tried to stand up but her body gave up hopelessly she let out a scream ,for a second it can be felt like the jungle was alive birds started to fly all of the sudden before she knew anything ,she fell and her eyes closed shut, it felt like her world just stopped.
On the other side few monks were heading towards Shaktidhara .when they heard the scream they changed their direction and went towards the dark jungle , yellow robes, wooden sound of their sandles, a symbol tugged on their waist( it was a round rope with three sections fire wind and air) and symmetry could be seen among them .
A limb body clothes faded tugged in, scars on body but clunching the bow tightly ,berely in the age on sixteen, when they saw her, one of them came forward and checked if she was breathing or not .

" It's so slow we have to do something quickly before it's too late " he shouted.
They all started to follow his instructions , although they all were young but were good enough to understand what should be done at this point of time.
Sanyukta was gaining her consciousness back after few minutes , she saw a boy of berely twenty sitting beside her transferring his spritual power to her ,sun was almost red in the sky .When he saw her eyes open he stopped transferring his powers and stood up at a little distance , everyone of them was busy in finding herbs for her scars came back one by one .
She was so confused who they were ,before she could fully process the leader of them came forward with herbs in his hand and said ," you don't have to be scared of us we aren't gonna harm you", with that he started to apply herbs on her scars .
"Wwwho aree you", Sanyukta asked with her trembling voice
"We should be the one to ask this but still let me tell you ", another one continued ," we are the students of shaktidhara ,we were coming back from today's lesson of hunting ,as we were heading back we heard your scream it guided us towards you ".
