Indra and Rudra were on the verge of falling out of exhaustion and wounds. No one can just fight off 13+ goons by themselves, no matter how strong they are. Vardhan was smiling from ear to ear; his sick intentions were to marry Tulasi as his second wife as revenge.
Indra holds his head and growls loudly, then falls near a tree. He didn't want to give up no matter what, because he knows what will happen to his women once the brother-pair dies.
Indra's pov
I looked at Rudra; his clothes were full of blood, but he's still fighting for me. I couldn't ask for a better brother than him... I want us together in every life. I don't want to die; I want to make love with Tulasi every day and have kids, then nurture them and make them educated.
Thinking about Tulasi brings a smile to my face, no matter how much pain I'm in. She always prays to Shiv Ji when she's scared or wants something.
I closed my eyes and prayed to the same Shiv Ji for some miracle...
Then my ears twitched when I heard a voice of some people coming towards the house. I opened my eyes and looked at the gate.
It was blurry at first, but then I saw some people entering in with fire torches. I blinked thrice, trying to make out who the people were. Then, I saw a man, and the wife of Vardhan and... Nalini with a bunch of people from our village in the background.
I let out a big smile with tears; my prayers were fulfilled. They started using those light torches as a weapon. I was shocked to see Nalini being so brave.... I never knew women were so courageous as well. How would I know...? Women are always ordered to listen to men and stay under them. Just like I did....

• Flashback to the prior 3 hours ~
"Sugandha, don't cry, my bacchi (my child)" Saraswati spoke while wiping Sugandha's tears.
"Maa ji, please do something. I don't want them to die. W... why do innocent people always get crushed under the monsters???" Sugandha says while sobbing.
"w...we can't do anything. What can we even do? If we step out of the house, we're like open prey to everyone. We're women in this society... We can't even look at other people; how can we help others when we can't even help ourselves?" Saraswati says while looking away.
"Maa ji, I don't want another woman to suffer like I did. I already got ruined and tortured.... If I have the chance to save those people while risking myself... I will." Sugandha says with determination.
Saraswathi didn't know what to say. She didn't want her son to commit more crimes; she's tired of those father-son pairs torturing their wives and also other women.
"There's a secret back door in the storeroom; y..you can go from there." Saraswathi gazed away with tears.
Sugandha immediately gets up and tries to run to the storeroom but gets halted by Saraswati.
"Be careful..." You're like my own daughter; I don't want you to suffer anymore. I'm doing this for you." Saraswathi says while caressing her face.
Sugandha nods and leaves hurriedly. Saraswathi knows the weight of her decision, but she's done turning a blind eye to those monsters' actions. She flops on the ground while crying.
Meanwhile, Sugandha manages to escape the house. It was still night, and it's very dangerous for a woman to even step out. But Sugandha doesn't care; even if she does, she's ready to help those innocent people.
She ran and ran... The village area is a bit far away since the house is located in a remote area. She knows the house of Indra; her parents took her to his place when she got raped by Vardhan for justice since he's the sarpanch.
She was so tired from all the running. She finally reaches the house of Indra. She knocked on the gate hurriedly; she didn't want to waste any time.
"Kon hai...?" Nalini asks from inside.
"J...ji, open the door. Y..your brothers are in danger." Sugandha manages to utter those words while panting.
Nalini was bewildered by her words. She started panicking; she was about to inform her mother.... But she stopped herself. If she tells anything to her mother, it's a waste, since her mother only cares about society and stuff. She didn't want to let her bhabhi know about this either.... Nalini took the decision to just take the matters into her own hands and decide... instead of her mother messing everything up.
She rushed out towards Sugandha. "Do you know where Keshav Ji's house is?"
"j..ji, my mother used to work in that house as a maid" Sugandha says.
"Let's go there.... He's the only one who can help us." Nalini says.
• Present ~
Rudra was more than relieved to see people come to their aid. The village people ran past Indra and Rudra towards the goons. The goons wouldn't stand a chance; they started running.
Vardhan and his father tried to run away from the storeroom door, but... it was locked. It was locked by none other than Saraswathi.
Indra and Rudra walked inside the house along with Keshav, Nalini, and Sugandha. The villagers surrounded the house so that they wouldn't escape.
"You bitch!!!! What are you doing there? You're the one who snitched on us!?" Vardhan tried to grab Sugandha but got kicked by Indra.
"Stay away from her, you bastard!! You've raped countless women... I couldn't take any action because you used to bribe everyone with money. I shouldn't have made her marry a motherfucker like you." Indra said with anger.
"you asshole, I'll see your end... This is my life and my rules." Vardhan spoke with rage.
"Your life has come to an end.... You tried to rape my women. That was when your death was written by the god." Indra said and attacked him with the axe.
Niranjan tried to help Vardhan but got beaten by Keshav.
Indra injured Vardhan so much that he couldn't even stand now. He didn't kill him... because he had a reason. He knows that most of the villagers that came to their aid were the victims of Vardhan and Niranjan's evil acts.
He ordered those villagers to take revenge on those two. It was like unleashing some hungry dogs. They all ran towards them and started beating them black and blue. At this point, they aren't recognizable.
Indra walked back and looked at Saraswati. He can only imagine her situation. Saraswathi took off her mangalsutra (nuptial chain) and started sobbing. Sugandha walked towards her and hugged her. They both were crying while hugging each other.
