In a single moment—
Chaos erupted.
Lights went out.
Footsteps. Shouts.
And in that darkness—
Arjun grabbed Maya's hand tightly.
"No matter what happens," he said,
"I'm not letting you go."
Maya held his hand back.
For the first time—
Not as someone running away.
But as someone ready to fight.
Because now—
This wasn't just her story anymore.
It was their destiny.
