Rakt Barsha

Agle hi pal ek beawaz sola nikal cigarette pita badmas ke dil me surakh kar gaya. Dhuye ki lat ne uski aaj jindgi dhuya kar di thi.  

Wo jeep se tek lagaye hi dher ho gaya. Abhi uska sarir zameen par gira bhi nahi tha ki Aparijita action me aa gayi.

Aparijita ne apne haantho me sikari chaku le rakha tha.

Aparijita ne uchhal kar sarak par pahuch ek jhatke me hi khirki se bahar jhakte badmas ki gardan ret di. 

Wo badmas bhi bagair kuchh bole hi dher ho gaya. Uski aankhe aachrya se khuli hui thi jaise use vishwas hi nahi ho raha ho ki maut eise bhi aa sakti hai.  

Apne picche aahat sun Rani picche mur kar abhi dekhna hi chahti thi ki Aparijita ki hatheyilo ne uska munh bheench liya. 

Idhar Ghanshyam aur Amit  ke saath-saath Rohit bhi jeep tak phunch gaya tha.  

Rohit ne darwaja khol kar mare hue badmas ko niche gira diya . 

Dusre taraf se Ghanshayam aur Amit tab tak dusre gate ke kareeb aa chuke the.

Ghanshayam aur Amit ne mil kar Kailash ko bahar nikala jo sadme me jaise jam sa gaya tha. 

Ghanshayam Kailash ko apne kandhe par daal teji se kheto ke andar bhaga . 

Aparijita ne Rohit ko bhi unke peeche jane ka issara kiya.   

Idhar jab Ghanshyam aur baaki log Kailash ko nikal rahe the tab tak Aparijita ne gate khol kar Rani ko sarak par khinch liya tha. 

Rani achhi fighter thi wo Aparijita se mukabla karne ki kosis kar rahi thi. 

Aparijita ka chaku bhi iss hatha-paai me gir gaya tha. 

Rani chilla kar apne saathiyo ko husiyaar karna hi chahti thi ki Aparijita ne uske munh par apne haath jamate hue uske gardan ko ek jhatke me kakri ki tarah tor dala. 

Aparijita ne jeep ke khule darwaje ki taraf jhaanka to use waha rupaiyo se bhara bag dikhai para.
Aparijita ne turant bag nikal kar khet ke andar phenk diya.  

Sabkuchh plan ke mutabik chal raha tha phir bhi ek garbar ho gayi.

Pata nahi kaise Jaaga ne kisi kaaran se pichhe mur kar dekha to usne  Rohit ko Amit ke picche  bhagte hue dekha. 

Rohit ne zarorat se jayada hi samay le liya tha. Plan ke mutabik Ghanshyam sabse aage tha; uske pichhe Amit tha jo Ghanshyam ko cover kar raha tha. Rohit ko Ghanshyam aur Amit ke madad ke liye unke peeche hona tha taaki wo Kailash ko surakshit pahucha zald waaps aa sake.

 Par Rohit jaane se pahle jeep ke pichhle hisse ke paas mare badmaas ka gun uthane ke baad mare badmaas ke belt me lage magazine ko nikalne laga tha. Usne oat bhi nahi le rakha tha jiski wajah se uska sirf sar hi jeep se chhipa tha. Yehi wajah thi ki jab wo Amit ke picche bhaga to Jagga ke nazaro me aa gaya. 

Jagga ne turant firing suru kar di.

Ek goli Rohit ke jaangh ko pharti hui nikal gayi.

Rohit wahi gir para. 

Tabhi dusri goli Rohit ke sar ko ragarti huye gujar gayi.  Rohit sar par lagi chot ke kaaran hosh khone laga tha. 

Aparijita ne jaise hi Rohit ko girte dekha wo turant apni revolver se Jagga ki taraf fire karte huye Rohit ke taraf bhaagi. 

Aparijita Rohit ke paas pahuch use apne kandhe par daal ek lambi chhalang laga khet me ghus gayi.

Jagga aur uske dono sathi firing karte huye jeep ki taraf bhaage aa rahe the. 

Aparijita teji se khet ke andar chuupai gayi bike ki taraf bhaag rahi thi. 

Aparijita ruk-ruk kar picche fire bhi kar rahi thi. 

Charwahe ke paas chhipa Arjun bhi golibaari hote dekh jeep ki taraf dana-dan fire karne laga. 

Aparijita ki furti dekh kar Amit aur Ghanshyam aacharyachakit the. Wo Rohit ko kandhe par daal eise daur rahi thi ki jaise usne apne kandho par insaan nahi balki koi phulo se bhari chhoti tokri rakhi ho.  

Amit bhi badmaaso ko aage badhne se rokne ke liye bich-bich me pichhe fire kar raha tha.

Teen taraf se khud par fire hote dekh Jagga khet me aane ki himmat nahi kar saka. 

Teeno badmaas jeep start kar aage bhaage.

Jagga ne driver ki seat sambhali hui thi. Rani aur unke 2 saathiyo ki laas jeep ke pichhle hisse me rakhi thi. Jagga ke saath aage Kallo baitha tha. Bich wali seat par Kallo ka chhota bhai baitha tha.

Aparijita ne kheto me bhagte hue Japu ko phone kiya.

"Japu, Ramdayalji ke larke ko chhura liya gaya hai. Par Rohit zakhmi ho gaya hai.  Isliye Kailash ke saath use bhi gaun bhej rahe hain.  Main unke peeche jaa rahi hoon. Baaki log peeche se aayenge. Tumlog jeep se nahar wale pool ka raasta band kar position le lo. Jeep me is waqt sirf 3 hi badmaas  hai. Jaise hi unki jeep aate dikhe jeep ke tyres ko burst kar unhe rokne ki kosis karna."  

Idhar Aparijita aur uske saathi apne bikes ke paas phunch chuke the. 

Aparijita ke kandhe par para Rohit ab tak puri tarah hosh kho chuka tha. 

"Plan me thori tabdili hai. Ghanshyam aur tumlog Kailash aur Rohit ko gaun waalo ke haatho me surakshit pahuncha kar teji se nahar wale pool par aao. Main wahi ja rahi hoon." Itna kah kar Aparijita teji se motorcycle ki aur bhagi.

Ghanshyam aur Ramdayalji ka larka Kailash moped par nikal pare. Amit aur ab tak waha aa pahuche Arjun behosh Rohit ke saath bike par unke peeche chal pare. Unki manjil 500 meter ki duri par unke intzaar me khare gaunwalo tak thi. Rohit aur Kailash ko gaaunwaalo ke hifaazat me chhor nahar wale pool tak sabhi zald se zald pahunchna chahte the.

Aparijita sarak ka raasta chhor kheto ke mer par apni bike teji se bhaga rahi thi. Patli mer par bike bhagaane me kafi dikkat aa rahi thi. 

Patli mer par utni speed me bike chalana kisi professional stunt karne waala hi kar sakta tha kyuki iske liye skill, himmat aur concentartion ki acchi taalmel ki jaroorat thi.

Jeep ko nikale kuchh minute bit chuke the. Isliye Aparijita ke paas jeep ko nahar se pahle pakarne ke liye shortcut lene ke aalawa koi chaara bhi nahi tha. 

Motorcycle rah-rah kar 1-1 feet uchhal rahi thi par Aparijita ke chehre par koi sikan bhi nahi dikh rahi thi. 

------------------------------------------------------------------

Dusri taraf Gopu aur Dinesh ek musibat me phas gaye the jiske karan wo Japu ke paas ab tak nahi pahunch paaye the.  Nahar wale pool se kuch peeche hi unki motorcycle ki chain tutne ke kaaran dono jhatake se sarak par gir pare the. 

Gopu aur Dinesh mamuli taur par ghayal bhi huye the. Dinesh ka mobile bhi sarak ke paas ki jhariyo me gum ho gaya tha jabki Gopu ka phone accident ki vajah se eisa band hoya tha ki on hi nahi ho raha tha.

"Dinesh, mera to phone hi band ho gaya hai aur tumhara mil hi nahi raha hai. Idhar motorcycle bhi chalne ki halat me nahi hai.  Udhar Japu aur Suresh hamara wait kar rahe honge. Hum unhe apne late hone ki khabar bhi nahi de sakte hai." Gopu ne karahte hue kaha.

"Gopu bhai, plan ke mutabik hume unke sath milkar badmaaso ko saamne se gherna tha,  madam aur baaki log peeche se gherne waale the. Par hamare naa pahunchne se Japu aur Suresh kamzor par jayenge."

"Chhor sarak ko, hum in pangdandiyo se chalkar Japu tak pahunchenge. Hum unhe akela nahi chhor sakte."  Gopu ne Dinesh ko ek pangdandi ki or issara karte hue kaha.

------------------------------------------------------------------
Gopu aur Dinesh ek dusre ko shahara dete hue uthe.

Dono apne hatiyar sambhale pangdandi par langrate hue bhagne lage. Dono ko taaja bane zakhmo ke kaaran dard ho raha tha par Japu aur Suresh ki chinta dono ko us haalat me bhi bhaga rahi thi.

Dusri taraf badmaas jeep se nahar ke pool tak pahunchne hi wale the.

Japu aur Suresh ne police Jeep pool ke anadar pahunchane ke raaste par khari kar position le  Jeep ke peeche khare the.

Aparijita khet ke raaste se nahar tak bas pahunchne hi wali thi.

"Saala,  ekbaar mujhe yaha se nikal jaane de phir ek-ek police walo ko chun-chun kar marunga. Haramzado ne bari husayari dikhayi. Pahle to saala main road se kacche raaste par bhej diya aur phir janwaro se raasta block karke launde ko churra liya. Rupaiya to nikal hi gaya. Rani aur 2 sathiyo ko bhi khona para." Jagga jeep chalata hua barbara raha tha.

Tabhi Jagga ko dur nahar ke pool par police jeep khari dikayi di.

"Saalo, apne ko bahut bara ser samajh rahe ho. Abhi dikhata hoon ki Jagga se panga lene walo ka mai kya haal karta hoon." Jagga gusse me chillaya.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Jeep teji se nahar waale pool ke paas pahuch rahi thi.

Jagga ke issare pe Kallo ke chhote bhai ne Jeep ke picchle hisse me rakhe ek bare se bag se 3 AK-47 nikal sabko 1-1 AK-47 pakra diya.

 Kailash ko surakshit zald se zald nikalne ke chakkar me Aparijita aur uske saathiyo ne jeep ke pichhle hisse ki talasi nahi li thi.  Aparijita rupaiyo se bhara bag uthane ke baad kuchh karti uske pahle hi Rohit ki bewabkufi ke kaaran use waha se hatna par gaya tha.

"Tum dono seat ko  jor se pakar lo. Main police wali jeep me side se jor se takaar maar kar raasta clear karunga. Raasta clear hote hi tumlog police walo ko bhun dena." Jagga daant pissta hua bola.

Suresh ne jeep khari karne me thori galti kar di thi.  Jeep ko usne pool ke andar ke taraf se naa khara kar pool ke saamne aara khara kiya tha jiske karan agar police jeep ko thora sa dhakel diya jata to pool ka raasta clear ho jata. Par jeep ke iss position me rahne se ek fayda yeh bhi tha ki jeep ke peeche position lene ke liye kaafi jagah thi .

Suresh ne Gopu aur Dinesh ko dhyan me rakh kar eise position me jeep khari kiya tha par Gopu aur Dinesh ab tak nahi pahuche the. 

Gopu aur Dinesh ke naa pahunchne par Suresh jeep ko pool ke andar ghusane ke baare me soch hi raha tha ki badmaso ki jeep aandhi-toofan ki tarah apni taraf aati dekh usne jeep se door bhagne ki kosis ki.
-------------------------------------------

Jeep toofani raftaar se Suresh ki taraf jhapti aa rahi thi.

Japu ek per ke peeche se raaste par nisaana laage baitha tha. Usne turant hi jeep par firing suru kar diya. Theek usi waqt Jeep ke dahine taraf se kheto ki mer par motorcycle lagbahg urati hui Aparijita bhi prakat huyi.

Japu ki chalayi kai goliya jagga ke aas paas se gujari.

 Suresh ne bhi bhagte-bhagte firing ki.

Suresh dwara chalai ek goli Jagga ke kandhe me jaa ghusi; par usne jeep ki raftaar kam nahi ki.

Jagaa ne police jeep me teji se dhakka mara jiske kaaran police jeep pool ke raaste ke paas khare do pero ke beech jaa phas gayi.

Police Jeep ke piche position liya Suresh jhatke me door ja gira.  Uske dahine haanth aur mathe par chot aayi thi.

Suresh ke haath se gun bhi nikal kar police jeep ke niche dab gaya tha.

Suresh ke aankho ke saamne sar par lagi chot ke andhera chhane raha tha. Wo teji se apna hosh khota jaa raha tha.

Suresh ko girte dekh Japu daur kar Suresh ke paas pahunch use ghasitate huye apne position par laane bhaga.

Jagga apni jeep thora pecche karke pool se nikalne ki kosis karne laga.

Tabhi dahine taraf se Aparijita ki motorcycle hawa me aati huye dikhayi pari.

Aparijita ne hawa me uthe motorcycle se hi jeep ke agle pahiye par firing ki.

 Ek dhamake ke saath Jeep ka agla pahiya burst ho gaya.

Jeep unbalance ho chuki thi.

Jagga ne Jeep sambhalne ki kosis ki par jeep lahrati hui pool se jaa takrayi.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Jeep pool par buri tarah se ataki pari thi. Uska agla dahina pahiya  burst ho chuka tha aur baaya pahiya pool ke railing ko torte hue bahar jhul raha tha. 

Jeep pool me aari teerchi hokar phasi hui thi. Jeep ka aage ka sisa gayab ho chuka tha. Driver ki taraf wala agla darwaja anatho ki tarah ukhara zameen par para tha. 

Abhi Jagga aur uske sathi puri tarah se jhatake se ubare bhi nahi the ki Japu aur Aparijita dwara chalai jaa rahi goliyo ne unki khair-khabar leni suru kar di.

Jagga aur Kallo jaldi se driver ki taraf wali seat se  bahar nikal bhagne ki kosis karne lage. Par Japu aur Aparijita ki chalayi jaa rahi golyino ne unhe jeep ke aar me chhipane ko majboor kar diya. 

Kallo ka bhai abhi tak jeep ke andar se hi firing kar raha tha. Uske taraf ka darwaja takkar se jaam ho chuka tha. Usne do baar uth kar aage ki seat ki tarf aane ki kosis ki par dono baar do goliya uske kaano ko hawa deti hui gujar gayi.

Jagga aur uske sathiyo par abhi dahine aur baaye dono taraf se goliya chal rahi thi. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Aparijita dheere dheere jeep ki aur badh rahi thi. 

Jeep rah-rah kar hil rahi thi. Yeh lagne lag tha ki jeep bas ab nahar me girne hi wali hai.  Kallo apne bhai ko gaaliya dete hue kah raha tha ki iss se pahle Jeep nahar me gire wo waha se nikal jaye. 

Jeep me phasa Kallo ka chhota bhai Aparijita ko Jeep ki taraf badhta dekh bokhala gaya. Usne apne baaye taraf ke darwaje ko try kiya to use khulta paaya.

Kallo ka bhai harbara kar jeap se utar jeep ke peeche se ghera kaat kar Jagga ki taraf bhaga.

Abhi wo jeep ke pecche pahuncha hi tha ki Japu ki chalyi ek goli uske pair me jaa dhasi. 

Abhi bechare ke munh se aah bhi nahi nikali paayi thi ki tabhi Aparijita ki chalayi goli uske gardan me ghus gayi.

"Bhaiya, hamra bacha laa!" usne Kallo se guhaar lagai.

Japu per ke peeche se nikal kar jeep ki taraf badh pool ke bilkul sidhe aake khet me ghush kar ek pathaar ke aar se goliya chalane laga. 

Aparijita abhi bhi pool se thori duri par thi. 

Gopu aur Dinesh abhi bhi apne sathiyo se kuchh duri par the. Unke kaano me goliyo ki awaaz aa rahi thi. 

Kuchh hi palo me Gopu aur Dinesh ko Aparijita aur Japu badmaaso se loha lete dikhayi diye par baaki log kahi nahi dikh rahe the.

"Dinesh,  Madam aur Japu  badmasso se bhire hain; baaki log kisi vajah se saath nahi dikh rahe hai. Hume aur teji dikhani paregi." Gopu Dinesh ka haath pakar khichta hua kaha.

Pool ke dusri taraf se gaun ka ek naujawan motorcycle se chala aa raha tha. Wo agle kuchh minutes me pool par pahunchane hi wala tha. 

Naujawan ne mobile par full volume me ek English song laga rakha tha. Wo naujawan kisi call center me job dhundh raha tha par uski angreji zaroorat se jayada garib thi. Kisi ne use English gaane aur news sunane aur Hollywood ki movie dekhne ki salah  di thi.  Uske baad se wo har waqt kaan me earphone lagaye English gaane sunta logo ko dikhta tha.

Idhar Kallo apne bhai ke paas rengta hua pahunch gaya tha.

"Tu ghabra mat, munna. Hum tuhara bacha leb."  Wo apne bhai ko santawna de raha tha.

Kallo apne bhai ko khich Jagga ki taraf laane ki kosis kar raha tha.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Idhar Gopu ab Japu ke paas pahunchane hi wala tha. Usne Suresh ko ek per ke niche bekhabar leta hua dekha. 

Gopu aur Dinesh firing karte huye Japu ki madad karne uski taraf bhage. 

Dusri taraf Jagga aur Kallo 2 aur policewalo ko aate dekh kar bhokhala gaye. 

Theek usi waqt zakhmi Kallo ke bhai ne dam tor diya.

Kallo gusse me pagal ho kar Japu ki taraf daurna hi chahta tha ki  Jagga ne uska  haath pakar ke wapas kheech liya.

"Saale, marne jaa raha hai. Pahle 3 policeye the aur ab wo 5 ho jayenge. Yaha se nikalne ki kosis kar. Hum inse baad me gin-gin kar badla lenge. Ek baar wo dono police wale aake inse mil gaye to hum yaha se kabhi zinda nahi nikal payenge. Jeep se aage ka raasta band hai; isliye wo paidal hi idhar aa sakte hai. Udhar dekh aage kuchh dur baad jungle suru ho raha hai. Ekbaar hum jungle me ghus gaye to phir inke haanth nahi aayenge."  Jagga ne Kallo ko samjhate hue kaha.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Japu bhai, daten rahu. Hum aa gaye hain."   Dinesh ne dur se hi hank lagayi.  

Gopu aur Dinesh ne hawa me golia chala kar badmaso ko dikhaya ki wo bhi hatiyarband hain.

Japu aur Aparijita ne kai baar aage badhe ki kosis ki par AK-47 ki burst fire ke aage mazbooran unhe picche hatna para. 

Idhar Jagga aur Kallo bhi phase pare the. AK-47 ki baaki magzines picche bag me pare the; par waha tak pahunchne ko kosis karte hi  Aparijita aur Japu ki goliyan unka chuban lene unki or lapkati thi. 

Dono taraf se ab goliyan ruk-ruk kar chal rahi thi jo kabhi-kabar tej bhi ho jaati thi. 

Ghanshyan, Arjun aur Amit moped aur motocycle par kuchh hi minutes me waha pahunchne wale the. Unke kaano me bhi golibaari ki awaaz aa rahi thi. 

Ghanshyam ne AK-47 ki burst fire se anumaan laga liya tha ki agar unhe der ho gayi to badmaaso ki toli Aparijita aur baaki sathiyo par bhari par jaayeegi. 

Ab tak excitement ke kaaran Japu ka zehan saari parishityio ko dhang se nahi samajh paya tha; par golibaari ke dheere hote hi usne gaur kiya to paaya ki agar wo dono badmaas jeep ki oat se bahar aa uspar jhapte to uska raam naam satya ho jaane wala tha. Iss baat ka dhyan aate hi Japu ke sarir ne pasina chhor diya.

Eisa nahi tha ki Kallo aur Jagga ko Japu ke position ki khaami pata nahi thi. Par Aparijita ne eisa position ne rakha tha ki unhe japu tak pahuchne ka irrada taygna para tha. 

Pool ki railing lohe aur lakri ke madad se bani thi, iss kaaran golia aasani se gap me se paar ho rahi thi. Jab bhi Jagga aur kallo jeep ki oat se nikal kar pool paar karna chahte to Aparijita aur japu dwara chalayi gayi goliyaa unhe hello bolne aa jaati.   

Japu ne Gopu aur Dinesh ko dekh kar khushi me pathhar ki oat se bahar aa daur kar un tak pahunchna chaha. Uski kismat acchi thi Jagga ki chalayi goli uske bajaye uski gun par jaa lagi.

japu ki gun ke naal ke chithare udd gaye. 

Japu bhag kar phir se pathaar ke peeche jaa chhipa. 

Jagga kafi accha nisanebaaz tha. Policewalo ki kismat aachi thi ki koi bhi uske direct nissane par nahi tha.

Dinesh aur Gopu kheto se hote huye Japu ki taraf bhaage.

Wo beech-beech me goliya bhi chala rahe the.

Abhi wo Japu ke paas pahunchne hi wale the ki Dinesh ki gun ein mauke par dhoka de jaam ho gayi.

Dinesh bhokhala kar achanak ruk kar apni gun theek karne ki kosis karne laga. Par uske achanak ruk jaane ke karan picche teji se daurta Gopu us se aa takraya aur paas ke khet me jaa gira. Khet me kisi fasal ke liye kafi paani jama kiya gaya tha jiske kaaran waha kaafi keechar ho gaya tha. 

Gopu ne khud ko keechar me girne se rokne ke chakkar me gun ko sahara ke taur par istemaal kiya. Natiza yeh hua ki gun keechar me buri taraf dhash gayi.   

Tabhi Jaaga ke madad ke liye call center ka sapne dekhta naujawan pake aam ki tarah uski jholi me aa gira.  

Wo naujawan motorcycle par full volumne me gaana sunte huye jhumata aa raha tha. Yaha itni goliya chal rahi thi par wo inse bekhabar jhumta hua pool par bas pahunchne hi wala tha. 

Naujawan gaane me puri tarah se dub chuka tha. Wo beech beech me bike par thora uchak-uchak kar apne kamar ko hilata aur "Shake It. Shake it." ka haank lagata jaa raha tha.  Is chakkar me uski bike bhi hil rahi thi par usko iski kaha parwah thi. 

Naujawan ki bike pool par jaise hi chadhi ek goli naujawan  ke gale ke paas se gujari aur uske earphone ko kaatati huyi nikal gayi .

Music band hote hi naujawan ne saamne dekha.

Agle hi pal naujawan ke hosh udh gaye. Saamne bhari golibari ho rahi thi. Aur wo sidhe us taraf mooh uthaye badha jaa raha tha.

Naujawan ne jor se brake laagya. Use pata tha ki rukte- rukte bhi bike badmasso ke paas phunch jayegi. 

Naujawan ne chalti bike se hi nahar me chhlang laga tair kar pool ke niche jaa chhipa. 

Naujawan tharr-tharr kaanpta hua jitne bhi devi-devta ka naam yaad aa raha tha; sabko chadhaba chadhane ka vaada kar raha tha.

Idhar bike ja kar Jagga se kuchh kadam ke duri par giri thi. Bike ka engine abhi bhi chal raha tha. Jagga ne Kallo ko issara kiya aur wo dono bike ke taraf bhage. 

Aparijita ne jab dono ko bike ke taraf bhagte dekha to wo bhi unke taraf jhapti. 

Ab tak Gopu keechar se gun nikal kar Japu tak pahunch chuka tha. 

Kallo peeche fire kar Jagga ko cover de raha tha. 

Jagga kandhe se AK-47 latkaye bike sidha kar raha tha.  

Jagga ne bike sidha karte hi kallo ko apne peeche baitha kar Jagga ne bike daura di.  

Aparijita ne bhagte badmaso ko dekh firing ki. 

Ek goli Kallo ke AK-47 par lagi aur uske haanth se AK-47 nikal kar nahar me jaa gira.

Aparijita ne phir se fire kiya. 

Ab tak bike pool ke aakhri chhor par aa chuki thi. Goli ne murte hue Jgga ke AK-47 ke strap ko kaat diya tha jiske kaaran AK-47 ne bhi Jagga ka saath chhor diya tha. 

Gopu, Japu aur Dinesh bhi pool tak aa chuke the par wo sabhi nihhate the. Japu aur Dinesh ki gun dhoka de gayi thi jabki Gopu ki gun keechar me buri tarah se lithri thi jiske wajah se fire karte hi uske phatne ki sambhawna thi.
