Karna was riding his chariot as fas as he can upon reaching the borders of Hastinapur he was first surrounded by soldiers of Both Hastinapur and Gandhar. He immediately knew something fishy was going on seeing soldiers here, he knew Bheeshma would atleast told soldier about his unexpected arrival. But seeing them surrounding him that too with Gandhar soldier rang Bella in his mind. He immediately searched for his weapon that he usually keep with Chariot but now he remembered he took out his weapons this morning to demonstrate the techniques to Abhimanyu. So he immediately summoned his Vijaya bow, and fired arrow and injured them but not mortally after that he directly went towards the palace of Hastinapur. Seeing a man coming into kingdom with his weapon drawn though most of soldiers recogrnised him they still duty and tried to subdue him knowing it was nothing but futile efforts. Karna's chariot didn't stop or slowed down he immediately used divyastra and made them unconscious. He directly went to palace and like before defeating whoever was in his way, he reach the Sabha and was shocked to see what was going on. He saw injured and distressed Draupadi who was closing her eyes and folding her hands and she was about to to disrobed by Prince Dussashan. Seeing that, he became very angry they weren't real husband and wife or had love between them but she was his wife and he had to do his duties as husband to protect her. Even if she wasn't his wife he couldn't let this Adharm happen, a woman's honour will not be tarnished in presence of Parshuram shishya Radhey Karna. After that he looked at those who were present in that Sabha, Bheeshma, Dronacharya, Kripacharya and Vidhur were lowering their head and tears were falling from their eyes, Pandavas except Sahdev were kneeling and crying. Sahdev was tied and layed on the floor. Duryodhana and Shakuni were laughing, Dussashan was also smiling viciously and was going to pull the saree of Draupadi. He got very angry, for the first time after he has completed his education did his Kavach and kundals was summoned because of his anger. He didn't have time to think anything he immediately shot an arrow to Stop this atrocity and yelled to show his unbound rage.
“What the hell is happening here.”
Dussashan whos arms were pierced steamed in pain. The sound of twang after the arrow was released has filled the heart of everyone present with fear. Till now karna hasn't used Vijaya to its fullest potential by in his anger he did that here. The entire trembled because of that. Everyone except Draupadi who was still closing her eyes and chanting krishna's name stumbled and some even fell on the ground. The crown of everyone fell Dhritrashtra crown eve fell and touched Draupadi's feet. Due to Vijaya used in full might the atmosphere of entire Aaryavrat changed the clear sky moment ago was now shrouded with Black clouds and thunder appeared in the sky.
Everyone regained their balance. Those who recognised the voice stiffened, Except Bheeshma and Sahdev. Everyone turned towards the entrance of Sabha and saw Karna was standing there with face distorted by anger and his Kavach was shining so brightly. He also held a bow in his hands which many could recornised. The temperature of entire sabha roses several degree. Everyone gulped seeing that just looking at him they felt that they were not looking at karna but Raudra roop of Shiva himself. Words couldn't be formed by those who saw him, they seemed to be lost in their throat. Everyone was trembling in fear. Draupadi too opened her eyes to see why Dussashan screamed and who has saved her. Upon opening her eyes she saw both hands of Dussashan was pieced by arrow and like everyone she turned towards the entrance and was shocked to see the person who she least expected to save her came and saver her. Her shock overshadowed the happiness that this madness has stopped. Everyone else was shocked by sudden arrival of Karna and his anger. Sahdev who was bound finally let a breadth of relief seeing Karna here, he didn't know how or rather didn't want to but one thing he was sure was the madness would stop now. Though Karna didn't like his brother or Draupadi but he was sure that he wouldn't let any Adharm in his presence Karna was such a man. Bheeshma who saw timely appearance of karna was too happy that Karna didn't ignored his letter and despite of everything Pandavas and Draupadi did he still came to protect them.
Karna didn't Karna aste time repeating his question but he immediately came near Draupadi and removed his angavastra to cover her. He saw Sahdev was still bound so he fired a garuda arrow and feed him from Nagpas. Sahdev was freed he immediately stood and came near them.
Dhritrashtra who regained his balance remembered the scream of his son Dussashan.
Dhritrashtra : What is happening did earth quake happened here, Dussashan why did you screamed Putra and who is the who dared to raise weapons and shout in the sabha.
Dussashan was now scared for his life, he knew after seeing Karna that he would be lucky to leave the sabha with his hands pierced. He didn't have courage to answer his father not only him but nobody in the entire Sabha has courage. Kauravas and Shakuni who were enjoying were covering now.
Dhritrashtra : Why no one is answering me.
Karna : They are not answering because they didn't have courage to utter words.
Dhritrashtra : Who are you?
Karna : I am Parshuram shishya Radhey Karna.
Hearing his name Dhritarashtra got chills in his spine. He know about Karna, Karna was as righteous as he was strong. He knew the matter has completely out of his hands but he has do something otherwise his children would be in danger, he has heard from Shakuni that dharm is weakness of righteous person. So he got an idea and tried to turn this in his favour but unfortunately for him he was facing Karna not Yudhishthir.
Dhritrashtra : Samrat Karna, why are you here? How did you come here? This is Hastinapur and matter between us you have no right to interfere.
Karna: I am not interested in knowing what you think, where there will be Adharm I will come here stop it. I don't care whose family matter it is. If you have capabilities then try to stop me. Let it be known to entire Aaryavrat that when it is for Dharm , how destructive Parshuram Shisya Radhey Karna fight. I am challenging entire Hastinapur alone if you have strength then stop me if you can. Last time I spared those who came to my kingdom but now I promise I will kill everyone who will stand befare dharm.
Dhritrashtra was stumped hearing his answers he knew he couldn't turn things around and as for accepting the challenge it was not even possible. Hastinapur's with their elite fighters has already lost to him and hearing the determination in Karna's voice he is quite sure he would follow through his words. The entire Sabha was once again silenced.
Karna then turned to Sahdev and asked what has happened though he guessed what has happened but he want to know how the situation has came to this. Sahdev didn't hide and told him what has happened. Karna couldn't believe what has happened. He turned towards Pandavas, he knew they were arrogant but to this extent he couldn't believe. He felt like he was never this disappointed by them and consider what they have done to him that was really something. Pandavas felt his gaze and for the first time they saw disgusted expression on Karna's face. Shakuni who was watching Karna and Sahdev and listened to the conversation immediately thought his chance has came.
Shakuni : See Brahmnagri naresh no Adharm has happened. My nephew has won everything fairly. He never forced Yudhishthir to stake anything. What happened here was not Adharm.
Karna : What dhram Gandhar raj.
Shakuni : Kshatriya Dharm maharaj, I am sure you could understand.
Karna : I am sorry to disappoint you Gandhar Raj. But I don't know of any of that dhram. First I am suta and second for me humanity is Dharm and what happened here is not humanity hence Adharm. Today I am proud to be Suta, for which you royals insult and mock me. If this is brahman and kshatriya then I wish I will birth as suta in my every life.
What a prestigious Sabha you have in Hastinapur. In presence of everyone a woman's honour is being tarnished and only one have tried to help her. I spit on this sabha of impotent. If your entire capabilities can't even save honour of one woman then how dare you all to call even yourself as warrior.
Karna's word was like hard slap on the face of everyone. The entire sabha was silenced by his answer. Suddenly hurriedly footsteps were heard and Kunti and Ghandhari who went for their prayers came to Sabha. When they were returning they heard that how king of Brahmnagri came rushing to Hastinapur and injured every soldiers. So they hurried their return. Kunti who thought karna has came her to attack Hastinapur because her son came here. Seeing the condition of her sons who were brought up by her because of Karna, any maternal love she held for him was gone. Now for her Karna was only a person responsible for suffering of her children. Upon reaching the sabha Kunti didn't see the surrounding but saw Karna there with his bow so she came to him and slapped him
Kunti : Karna, how dare you come here and attack everyone. Has one victory reached your head. How dare you even set your foot in Hastinapur? Who do you think you are? Have you not caused enough problem for my children? Because of you they have suffered enough from the time you have entered In their and my life you have created nothing but problems so I beg you to go away not only from here but from our life. Please o heard you never returned anyone empty handed so I mother of Pandavas ask you to go away from our life and never interfere in our life again.
Everyone was shocked by outburst of Kunti and her slap to Karna. Bheeshma grasped what Kunti has said only he knew that Karna knew the truth of his birth and inspire of everything he still came to protect Pandavas. Pandavas too was shocked to see that especially Sahdev.
Sahdev : Mata...
Sahdev wanted to speak but Karna stopped him by raising his hands. Kunti's words deeply hurt him. He know that kunti knew exactly who is so her words brought measurable pain to him. He felt that even cutting his flesh for gurudhkhsina wasn't as hurt full for him. Somewhere in his heart he longed for his birth mother. He understood her when she abondoned him as child but now once again he was abondoned by her and the pain he was feeling was immeasurable. But he didn't let his his inner turmoil to show in his face. He steeled his heart. Kunti was only glaring him.
Karna : Fine Rajmata Kunti, I have never send any empty handed so you will also get what you wish. You ask me to go away then that what I will do. I promise you from now on I will never interfere in either you or your children lives. I will never personally came in front of them.
Saying that Karna left there, without turning back. Kunti was surprised by his sudden departure. Only then kunti turned and looked the condition of her son and daughter-in-law. She saw Draupadi's condition and her being covered by angavastra of someone else. She immediately came to her and hugged her than she turned and looked around and what she saw shocked her.
Kunti : What is happening here.
Sahdev : Mata, what have you done.
Sahdev then told her what has happened and how Karna has saved draupadi and them. Kunti was shocked learning everything then she regretted saying everything. She wanted to apologise but first she has to salvage the situation here. Ghandhari was also shocked learning what all has happened. She turned towards Dhritarashtra.
Kunti : Maharaj, what have you done is this you treat sons and daughter in law of you brother. Release son otherwise I will bring narayani sena with Krishna and Balram to destroy Hastinapur.
Dhritrashtra who was already received after Karna left was once again scared.
Dhritrashtra : No Kunti, I will release your son and return them everything.
Duryodhana who again regain his arrogance when karna left immediately interrupted and said everything won by him and he will not return anything. But under pressure of everyone he has release them but Shakuni interjected and said they are ready but before Duryodhana return anything Pandavas and Draupadi have to spend 12 years in Vanvas and 1year in agyatvas and if they were identified in agyatvas they the cycle will repeat. They gave them 15 days to prepare. Pandavas accepted that. During the entire conversation Draupadi stood there as lifeless person and after discussion she immediately left Sabha but before leaving she threw her chudamani on the floor telling whatever happened today and whoever was part of it will have to face consequences. she was going to curse but Ghandhari pleaded her not to but she did promise that her humiliation will be returned and a tsunami will engulf not only Hastinapur but entire Aaryavrat where woman are considered as commodity. She left the palace and combed up a chariot to go to Indraprastha. Pandavas too proclaimed that Draupadi insult will be avenged after 13 years. The took their weapons and left Hastinapur with Kunti. Duryodhana and Shakuni scoffed at that as their master plan is to always spy in Pandavas during vanvas and as soon as agyatvas begin they could find them and return them to Vanvas. Bheeshma who saw everything shed tears not only because he can see destruction happening soon but because of him once again Karna was abondoned by his mother and now he wasn't sure if Karna could ever forgive kunti. He couldn't understand why niyati was especially cruel to him.
