There Is Only One You! 45 Champa Market.

"This place is called as Champa market? Wah! This is the first time I saw a place as lively as this after coming here!" Ira sounded so excited.

The Champa market was known for its resources. There was nothing that one could not find there. From the purchase of a normal pin to informations, everything was said to be sold there. They also sold weapons banned by the capital through an underground organisation called "Tails". Though all the people were aware of that organisation, none had ever seen its members. They maintained high secrecy and protected the information of the clients. It was also heard that those people help everyone from the rich to poor as long as they are benefitted.

"Why? You have never been to a market before?" 

"Of Course I have! But this is the first time I have been to a market in this world! It makes me feel a little weird!!" 

"What's with 'This world'??" Abhinav sounded a little confused with her words.

"Are you not good with the crowds? With your att.i.tude I thought you would be able to adapt to any situations."

"You don't need to know." Ira sticked out her tongue.

"And hey, you were complimenting me right?? That was a compliment right???" Ira bounced back and forth in a funny manner.

"Yeah, yeah! Whatever! Let's go. Be sure to cover your face properly." Abhinav pulled the hood of the cloak and covered Ira's head completely.

"Hey! If you cover me like that then I won't be able to see!" 

"Yeah, yeah! Whatever! If you are going to slow me down, I will leave you behind!" Abhinav's nonchalant att.i.tude got on Ira's nerves.

'd.a.m.n this guy! Just you wait! Once I found s.h.i.+v, I will have him to spank you! Humh!!

But s.h.i.+v.... I wonder if I could find him here? It would be good if that were the case. I wonder how he is doing? I already miss him..... *Blush* Mis... miisss himm?? Me?? Why?? That's not possible!! It can never be possible!!!' Ira was slapping her face like crazy.

"Have you finally gone nuts?" Abhinav stared at her like looking at an idiot.

"I am not! Shut it! Let's go." 

....

'I hope, I can find her soon. "Tails" is an renowned underground organisation, maybe if I could somehow get their help, I might be able to find her. Until then I hope she is safe from their hands.'

s.h.i.+v was raiding on his horse as fast as he could to reach Champa market by dawn. 

.....

*Panting* "Did you finish with your purchases?? How much are you going to buy? Seriously this guy! d.a.m.n it!!" Ira was shouting on top of her lungs.

"Shut it! I still have a lot more herbs and medicines to buy. Thanks to a certain someone, my major important medicines are almost over!" Abhinav complained.

"You can't be talking about me right? If you don't even have enough provisions for a single person how can you call yourself a doctor!"

"You speak too much! Then pay for my treatment!" He stretched his hand in the form of asking for money.

Ira blinked blankly for a second, "Money.... I don't have any on me.... I will pay you back someday for sure. You can have my word!!" 

"Don't speak nonsense! Why should I trust you? If you don't have any money on you, then how about you pay me back with your body? Isn't that fair enough??" Abhinav casually asked her.

"Bo...body! You... you big pervert! How dare you!?" Ira crossed her arms over her shoulders in the form of protection.

"Is that tiny head you have on your shoulders only an accessory? Just what kind of thoughts runs wild in that head of yours and what, you call me a pervert! I meant for you to help me carry all these in the form of payment. Besides I am nowhere interested in a kid like you!" 

Abhinav measured her from head to toe for a second, "Well, I would be interested in another 5 years or so... You might not be too bad afterall I could adjust! Hmm!"

Ira blushed hard, "You.. you d.a.m.n old man! Even I am not interested in old geezers like you! Shoo Shoo! Get lost!"

'This guy certainly has a way to irritate me! Calm down Ira... calm down. Take a deeeep breath! Yeah that works!'

'Huh, what's that place? Is that a food stall?? Man, that smells good!' Ira stared at the food stall with a drool on her face. 

Abhinav noticed the girl and went near her, "What? You want that? Hungry??"

Ira nodded her head like her life depended on it. Abhinav originally wanted to tease her, but couldn't help it, when she looked that desperate. 

"Wah! This is so tasty! So good!! Never thought you would be a good guy. What a surprise..."

Abhinav bent down and took a bite from Ira's bun. His face was so close that Ira's heart nearly skipped a beat!

"He... hey! That's my bun!" 

"Its my money! If you speak more, I will eat the whole thing!"

...

"Finally, I reached Champa market." s.h.i.+v casually lowered his hood and started to walk around the market.
