Arjun didn't say anything, Although unwilling he agreed to Krishna's decision. He never went against his friend's decision, But this was not the only reason why he agreed this quickly. His partial reason was fear. He had fear in his heart. Before anytime he fought with man on chariot fought, AHe alway thought that he was better because he was able repalle him back but today he realised that all those times he who thought he beat that man was a misunderstanding. His opponent is always holding back and now he is going all out means he is coming to kill him. 

Krishna look at chariot behind him and decide to let arjun fight to stall some more time.

"So you finally stopped arjun. Let's finish the battle we never get to finish."

Seeing arjun chariot turning towards him, Chariot warrior said to Arjun as he put an arrow on Vijay bow's string and launched it. 

*Bang*

Twang of strings rebounded throughout the whole world. Breath of death spread all around the earth. The gods who was watching the war trembled hearing the twang. Whole heaven shook. Anyone who heard this sound gave birth to fear in there hearts. All gods eyes directly gather on the battlefield between two warriors. They open heavens gates to look at the once in the lifetime battle between warriors who can beat gods.

"Huh True let's finish this battle so world can see how blind they were to say you are better then me."

Arjun also not backed away and also stringed arrow on his gandiva and launched. Whole world shined by the brightness the bow released blinding its opponents. But chariot warrior directly looked at it as if this light didn't exist at all. 

*Bang* 

*Boom* 

*Shatter*

Two arrows intersect in the middle, Then a loud bang sounded, A huge mushroom cloud appeared on the battlefield. Anything that cloud touched were destroyed in a second. There was a total destruction of places all around it.

But this didn't stop two warriors. They started launching arrows after arrows to counter one another. Whole world trembled. Animals wailed as if begging these warriors to stop but these warriors did not have time to pay attention to them.

After the normal arrow they started using divine weapons. This time the end of the world really came. Sky lost its brilliance, earth lost her endurance, Air lost its power, Everything just blew apart. If not for godly protection this world would have ended. 

Warriors kept going on without even noticing the destruction all around them. They were like an artist who lost in his art without caring about anyone. They had only one target in there mind althat was to defeat their opponent.

After some time the chariot warrior got the upper hand, He swity and quickly cut down 12 strings of Arjun's gandiva. His hands were so fast that they appeared to create after images of his actions. This surprises Arjun but also increases fear in his heart. If this goes one the loser will be him. That man showed he was better than him but Arjun's arrogance wouldn't allow him to admit it. 

"It's only because of that damn bow, If I have it, I will be able to do more than him. He was just lucky and tricked guru parshuram to accept him as a student. He doesn't have any power of his own."

His jealousy increased, He said in his heart the opponent 's valour is because of his guru and nothing else.

*Pierce* 

*Splatter*

Suddenly when he was distracted 3 arrows pierce him through his armour. He quickly checked and sigh of relief when he found that all arrows avoided his vitals. For warriors like him these wounds are not even considered flesh wounds. He thanked his luck and put his full focus on the battle.

Krishna, who was driving the chariot, shook his hand lightly. How could he not see that those arrows did not contain any killing intent? These were just warning shots to remind his opponent to pay attention.

'Arjun was fighting as he was facing an opponent and That man was fighting as he was sparring with his younger brother.'

He looked at the man on the chariot with pain in his eyes. How much he wanted that man to join his army, Join pandavas he was even offer him whole world, most beautiful woman in Aryavart (India), immeasurable wealth, gold, silver anything he wanted, He even offered pandavas will serve him but he denied everything without even given a single thought just for his friendship. 

He already knew the answer of that man but he still felt pain when he denied the offer because he knew the ending of that denial.

'Time as come'

Krishna sighed and turned Arjuna's chariot in another direction at full speed. Seeing this arjun also sighs of relief, He was really getting overwhelmed by that evil minded man. He will never admit it but this was the truth.

"Shayla After him."

When the chariot warrior saw Arjun running away again, Suddenly he had a pang in his heart. This was a warning that if he follows then he will surely die in this battle but he still decided to go after arjun. After all he still has to give his last alms to pandavas.

Then it happened as his curse fulfilment time had come. When he was running at full speed after Arjun his chariot wheel got stuck in the mud. Looking at the stuck wheel and the Arjun chariot, He remembered his curse with a knowing smile on his lips.

He decided to get down and fight arjun standing on the ground but then his second curse taken effect and the forgotten all the knowledge about the weapon and Astras in a instant. All of his weapons became useless as he forgot how to use them.

"So this how I am going to die huh, Not bad." 

He shakes his head, his smile widens. He then still decided to fight with Arjun with normal arrows.

"Partha(Arjun's other name) Now is the time to attack!!!"

Krishna sharply turned the chariot and came towards that warrior. Then battle between warriors started again but surprisingly even after forgetting his weapon knowledge that warrior was still able to keep up with arjun.

'How? He was on the ground and I was on the chariot. I clearly have a high ground then why am I still not able to defeat him?"

*Bang*

Arjun again lost in thought and because of his loss of attention a strong arrow of opponent struck him rendering him unconscious.

When the ground warrior saw that his arrow successfully hit Arjun and made him unconscious, He did not feel happy, On the contrary he became worried but after finding Arjun just unconscious and not fatally wounded. He sigh a relief, He didn't not take advantage of the situation to kill Arjun nor did he decide to retreat until his knowledge returned to him but instead he decided to pull out his chariot wheel from the ground. So at least his charioteer Shalya is able to escape if he needs to.

So he put his bow on the chariot fulfilling the 3rd curse. Then he grabbed the stuck wheel with both hands and tried to pull the wheel out of the mud but it didn't even budge. Annoyed, he used all his might trying to take the wheel out of the mud.

*Rumble*

Whole earth shook, With his might he lifted the whole earth with all its river, mountain and sea four fingers high. The God's who was watching applauded his feat of strength but sadly the wheel still didn't budge.

"I will kill you Suta."

Roars were heard, Arjun who woke up felt greatly insulted. He was unconscious but other than attacking him and winning the battle, that man decided to lift the wheel, Which was very humiliating for him. In anger decided to attack that man with rudrastra (Roar of shiva) but after seeing that man's feat, Jealousy again filled his heart he changed weapons to normal divine weapons and launched targeting opponents neck. 

That arrow pierced through the air and swiftly cut the neck of the warrior.

*Thump*

Headless body of the warrior fell down on the ground. His head also fell next to it.

*Thrumble*

Just as his body landed, Heaven and earth changed. Sky suddenly became dark as if the sun couldn't bear to look at the sight in front of him. Earth also trembles as showing her sorrow to the world. Animals wailed, Trees fell. For a moment all the beauty of the world eclipsed. Gods also became sad after paying respect to the fallen. They also closed the heaven's gate. 

"No!!!!! Mitra"

Muscular body man directly kneeled on the ground crying like a baby on the loss of his friend. 

He lost all desire of war, At this time he just wanted his friend back. He was ready to give anything in exchange for his friend but he also knew that was impossible. In the end he cried for his friend all night begging all the gods take care of him in heaven and that he will come there soon to accompany him.

Finally night falls and Krishna uses the shankha (Chank) sound to declare the end of today's war.

Today's night was also too dark , not to mention the moon even stars were not present in the sky. As if every celestial body's were mourning for there loss. In this world only one thing was as beautiful as it alway was, that would be the body of a fallen warrior. Even after this gruesome death he was still as beautiful as when he was alive.

The 18th day war result is not surprising to anyone. This day was the last day of the war and pandavas came out victorious. 

That chariot man for his final alms donated victory to them.

This battle was later known as the Kurukshetra war.
