Trapped

Everyone was really shaken. . the manifestation of smoke silhouette did not fade away.. looking at it, everyone felt their heart beat quicken.. Pinaka never believed in all this.. but his own eyes told him that his thoughts did not matter.. the evil spirit spoke.. 'not bad.. you have good amount of power.. but you are not a match to me.. both of you will die if you will not let me go.. ' it was undoubtedly Shameen.. Raj guru folded his fingers and connected both his index fingers.. he dipped them into Vermillion and touched his forehead.. a third eye appeared in the center of his forehead..Pinaka was astonished.. his Raj guru had great spiritual achievements.. the third eye flashed and then he took holy Ganga water and sprinkled around the area where Shameen's spirit was arrested.. then he sat cross legged and started meditating.. a huge light screen appeared around Shameen.. it slowly took the form of a silver cage.. the spirit tried to move about.. but as she touched the cage.. lightning crackled.. she let out a screech.. finally Shameen's spirit was trapped..

The sorcerer quickly summoned a person and asked him to bring few items.. he too sat cross legged few feet away from Raj guru and chanted something.. the person who was summoned by the sorcerer came back carrying few logs.. the sorcerer placed logs around the silver cage and continued his chant.. there was a blazing fire that started burning the logs... but it was only using the logs as base but was not consuming them as fuel.. thus a second barrier was set to prevent Shameen from escaping..

Shameen howled in frustration.. how come these two men were so powerful.. many religious men tried to control her spirit.. but none were successful.. even the sorcerer alone couldn't do anything to her.. but this Raj guru was very powerful.. he had high spiritual attainments..

Shameen said, 'let me go.. ' Pinaka was looking at her form.. slowly the smoke swirled.. it took the form of Shameen's physical body.. her body was clad in translucent robes giving everyone a good picture of her figure.. everyone gasped.. this was the most beautiful lady Pinaka had ever seen.. his wife Samyukta who was a supreme beauty was clearly inferior to this woman. .. Maya whose beauty did not lose out to Samyukta in any way was also inferior to Shameen.. she exuded an aura which was gentle and vulnerable.. now everyone in the room except for the Raj guru and sorcerer felt a strong will to protect her.. she was crying as if she was a damsel in distress.. with her powers and her looks she subdued the chief.. he ran towards the fire and started removing the logs breaking the fire ring.. Pinaka cried, 'no.. ' loudly and went to block the chief.. even other men present around were trying to help the chief.. Shameen couldn't control Pinaka.. though his mind was attacked by her continuously.. somehow he was able to hold himself together.. the Raj guru opened his eyes.. he took out Vibuthi (holy ash) from a small pouch and blew it on every person in the room.. slowly they came out of her trance.. and yes.. she was trapped completely..
