Ab akela Munna bacha tha usko jaise hi lund dekha to bola dia
Renu - Ye kya hai harami tera naam Munna nahi nunna hona chaiye tha... Ye nunna khada b hoga k aise hi rehne wala
Munna - Madam sorry ye meri shuru s pareshani rahi hai jab tak nangi ladki nahi dikhti ye khada nahi hota... Tabhi ye aisa mujjhaya sa hai
Renu (us k gaal p chanta maarte hue)- jhaath k baal ab tere maze k liye mai nangi hu kyaa.. tere ko maze dene waali raand samajh rkha kya muje haraami
Munna- Madam maaf Krna mujko maaro mat majne to apni dikkat batai apko nangi ladki dekhe bina ye khada nahi hota mai kya kar skta
Renu lag jaati apne kaam p usko masalna sehlana lagti par uska nunnu to khada hone k tayyar hi nahi... Iss baat p Renu wapas frustrate hone lagi thi or gusse k level high hota jaa rha tha or is gusse p hi usne Munna ki dhunai b shuru kardi kabhi ghussa kabhi laat kabhi slap... Wo bechara roye hi ja rha tha .. or khud ko bachane k try krrha tha... Kitna b try kr lia par uska nunnu na khada hua ab Renu b Ruk k break lene lagi, chahti to usko b us kamre p baaki 3 k saath band krdeti par haath lage shikkar ko haath a kaise jaane deti wo b jab usne itni jaada himakat ki ho us k ghar p ghus k uske sister k bang karne ki .....
Is par Renu ne ek idea nikala
Renu - Chal ek kaam krti hun mai waha khadi ho jaati hu apni nighty utaar k tu mujko hi dekh k apna khada kar le aisa sunhara mauka tujko apni zindagi p kabhi nahi milega ... Par agar ye nunnu khada na hua naa to tujhko mai utha dungi .. samjha
Ye sun k Munna hakka bakka reh gaya wo soch b nahi sakta tha k aisi haalat p usko Inspector aisa offer dedegi... Uski to khushi k thikana hi nahi raha
Munna - Deal madam... Aap ek baar nighty to utaaro aage k khel mai khud khelunga or apko shukyayat k koi mauka nahi dunga
Renu kone p jaa k apni nighty utaar k side p fek deti. . sirf bra panty p wo to Qayamat jaisi hi lag rahi thi... Jo ab tak nunnu tha wo to shayad 6 second k time p hi aakash chumne waali height p khada ho gaya tha uski uchai ko dekh k Renu k muh p paani aa gaya or usse sabar nahi ho raha tha.... Or wo aaage badte hi bala ki furti s usko apne muh p lelia... Full on choosna start krdia
Munna to romanch k charam Seema p pahuchne laga par isse pehle k wo pani chorhta usne is mauke k fayda uthaate hue Renu k k bra khol di jo ki Renu choosne k dhun me itna mast thi k uss k is or koi dhyan hi nahi gaya or uski bra niche ko gir gai usko abhi b kucch pata nahi laga.... Dheere dheere Munna apni charam Seema p pahuch rha tha or ussi tarah dheere dheere us k haath Renu k nangi peeth s sarak k uske boobs k taraf badd rhe the ... Renu inn sab s anjaan apne khud k masti k Alam me madhosh thi k tabhi Munna k hatth double jackpot lag gaya or usne jitne dum tha laga k uske uroj ko masal diya. . Renu bahut jor s cheeki or uss k ling s muh hata k apne haaatho s apne boobs ko sehlaane lagi bahut jaada dard hui thi usko is mauke k jhatpat fayda uthaya Munna ne uss ne fatt s Renu k bachi hui kattchi bhi niche sarka di or sidha jaa k uss k chut p apne jibh s attack kar dia. Wo bechari to pehle s hi chus chus k geeli ho gai thi or upar s ye jibh k attack uski yauni p jabardast saabhit hua ...

Renu - Uuui maa ... Aaah .. chorh mujee haraami ... Chorh suar ... Chorh
Munna(us k juice ko chusta hua)- Kyu saali bada mazaa aata tha naa chusne p aaj humko b chusne de teri madmast anchui c jawaani.
Renu kucch kehne k haalat p nahi thi naa us ko is attack k koj umeed thi... Wo to jaise cheekne or karahne k machine ban gai or aise hi jhaddd gai.. Uski aisi haalat dekh k Munna bahut muskura raha tha

Munna - Kyu saali, tu to choote hi jhadd gai.. itna sex hai tuj me... Aaj tera saara juice p k apni comm ka badla lunga tuj s dekhti jaa...
Aur dobara s Renu ko garam karna shuru kar dia jaha uss k haath boobs ko masal the the or jeebh apna kartab uski chut p dikha rahi thi
Renu (kisi tarah karahne or chikne k control krte hue )- Harami mai tujhe nahi chodungi .... Chorh muje kutte

Renu ko tadapta dekh Munna muskurane laga or uska confidence or jaada badta chala gaya .. wo aaj full mood p tha uss k bang karne ka
Munna- dekhti ja saali aaj tera bang kar k baaki sa k liye ek misaal saabit karunga k sherni k shikaar sher ne niche s kiya
Renu abhi b tadap rahi thi chatpata rahi thi khud p kaboo paane k koshish krrhi thi par uska pehla anubhav tha uss k muh s karahne or siskariya band ho nahi ho rahi thi .. wo dusre baar jhadd gai thi or Munna jo ki kucch der pehle nunna tha kis tarah s is sherni k shikaar krrha tha dekh k hairaan thi... Par wo aise kisi criminal k haatho bang to nahi ho sakti thi aakhir ijjat k sawaal tha mauj masti to alag baat hai par us tarah bang uss ko kisi tarah kabboo paana hi tha...

Iss baar usne bahut jor s Munna ko baalo s khicha jo uss k chehra niche k taraf tha usne upar sar utha k dekha... dono k aaknhen laal thi or gussa nazar a raha tha or ek dusre ko khaa jaane wali nazro s dekhne lage par isse pehle k Munna koi action karta Renu ne ek jordaar ghussa us k chehre p maara wo karahta hua jameen p gira... Uss k baad Renu us ko koi mauka dene k mood me nahi thi or uss p ghusso k barsaat shuru kardi bal or himmat p wo kisi s kam nahi thi aisi hi nai wo sherni kehlaati thi par aaj us k ghusso p wo baat nahi thi kyuki ek to wo alag haalat p thi upar s do baar jhadd chuki thi... Munna b fight dene k andaaj p tha or kisi tarah sherni k war ko rokne k koshish krne laga kabhi uss k aage ko jhuke boobs dabata kabhi baal kheechta par wo is baar rukne waali nahi thi or naa hi ruki jab tak wo behosh nahi ho gaya ...

Fir wo khadi hui sheeshe p apni haalat dekhi us ko tab realize hua k wo itni jada excited ho gai thi k Munna ko maarte maarte b ek baar or jhad gai thi matlab 15 min p 3 baar jhadd chuki thi wo b ek criminal k actions k kar k ...
Kisi tarah khud p kaboo paya or kapde pehne... Raat ko washroom p jaa k nahai


Agle din subha security officer ko 4 agyaat logo k laash naale p mili jin k ang kate hue the or investigation Renu ko karne ko mili... Ye chaar laash kis ki thi ye to ap log samajh hi gaye hoge

Hope apko ye story acchi lagi

Tab tak k liye Good bye

Last season humne dekha ki kis tarah Badmaash security officerwali Renu ne 4 gundo ka shikaar kia or unko maar k fek dia



Ab hum aage chalte hai

Shehar me waise hi bahut jyada dehsat faila hua tha ki 4 Qatl kisne or kyu kiye par Renu ko tassali thi ki usne kiye Qatl se Jurm ka safaaya hua hai or jab b usko mauka milega wo aise Papio ka ant karti rhegi magar apni masti p kami nahi aane degi, Machine ko chalne ke liye oil ki jarurat hai waise hi Renu ko apni sasti masti bole to choosna jaruri hai else uska dimaag nahi chalta, so chaliye aage badte hai is kahani me kya kya hota hai



Renu ke karnaame kucch din aise hi chalte rahe jo b mujrim kisi b jurm me us k lockup me aata uspe Renu ka choosne wala torture itna jyada kamaal krdeta ya to wo sudhar jaata ya fir wo area hi badal leta, takeeeban 3 months tak ye sab chalta raha or mano ya na mano shehar poori tarah crime mukt ho gaya, koi b crime kahi p b nahi ho rha tha Renu ke torture ke darr se, desh ka iklota aisa shehar ban gaya tha jaha crime report hona to dur crime hona hi band ho gaya, ye baat news media me jab aane shuru hui to prashasan ko b realize hua ki ye Shehar bahut shanti priye shehar ban chuka hai, or alag alag politician b involve hone lag gaye or khud ko zimmedar bolne lage is tarah ke crime mukt shehar ke. Kucch dik ye sab Politics b chalti rahi or sab kucch normal chalta raha



Ab Election aane wale the to MP Mathur or MP Khan opposition party kr hone k baad yaha p apne kadam jamaane lage or khud ko yaha k logo me popular karne k liye din din bhar rally karne lage, haalaki Renu ko sab pata tha ki crime mukt city sirf usne mumkin kia hai par wo credit lena hi nahi chati thi so election days k chalte mathur or khan dono hi hawaala ka paisa yaha laane lage or apna election campaign me lagaane lage.

Khan ka right hand tha Rahim aur paise ka sab her fer wohi manage krrha tha, kitna kaha s aana or kha ko jana sab wo dekhne laga.



Ab tak crime mukt abhiyaan k chalte shaant baithi Renu ko jab khabriyo se ye khabar mili ki ek baar fir uske shehar p crime apni baahe faila rha hai hawaale ke paise ke jariye jo election campaign ke liye hai to wo fir se action me aa gayi or usne Khan ke 2 truck sieze kar liye border p jo lagbhag 40 crore ki funding le k aa rhe the, is baat ka Khan ko bahut gussa aaya par wo election days k chalte koi direct action nahi lena chahta tha to usne Rahim ko station bheja deal karne k liye



Rahim- Namaste, Renu ji

Renu- Yes, How can I help u

Rahim- Aji, help to hum apki karna chahte hai

Renu- Clear bolo, kya kehna chahte ho pahelia nahi chaiye muje

Rahim- Hum Rahim hu, Khan ji ka aadmi, aapne border p humara kucch maal uthaya hai aap release krdijiye

Renu- Yaar, badi himmat hai tuj me, mere crime mukt city p khule aam crime kar rha or mujko bol rha maal chorne ko

Rahim- Ye city tumhari nahi Khan bhaiji ki hai or ye maal b unka hai release krdo chupchaap

Renu- Khan jaise neta aate jaate rhenge par maal to release nahi hoga jyada bola to andar krdungi tu b release nahi hoga, bhaag ja apne baap k paas

Rahim- mai koi tuccha gali ka gunda nahi jisko tu dhamka rhi, chup chaap maal relase krde saali

Renu- Chutiye, tujko teri aukaat batani pdegi, hawaldar andar kro saale ko



Do Hawaldar uski taraf bade par wo ready tha usne piche ko ho ke dono Hawaldaaro ko aapas me takkar karwai or ek ki taang jhatkai oe dusre ko kohni se maara jis k baad dono bechare gir k karahne lage

Renu- Shaanash, to tu muqable wali cheej hai, bahut badia, kai zamaane se yaha kisi s muqabla nahi hua, mazaa aayega



Bolne k saath Renu ne Cap or Gun nikal ke table p rakh di or Rahim ki taraf bad gayi



Rahim ek baar fir se ready tha is baar fir usne piche ho ke fir s pehle ki tarah dodge karna chaha Renu ka ghusa but bandi b Blackbelt thi hawa ki teji se left leg se back kick di uske chehre p uski naksir fut gai, usne aisa nahi socha tha ab wo pehle se kucch jyada alert hua or is baar khud first attack ki taraf bada , magar Renu p attack koi aam baat nahi thi usne khud ko niche dhakelte hue Rahim bke pairo ko apne pairo me jakda jisse uska balance bigda or wo bechara fir se niche gira. Ab tak wo samajh chuka tha ki Renu koi airi gairi inspector nahi bandi me dum hai



Ab usne bina koi time diye ek dum se flying kick li Renu ki taraf, haalaki Renu ne khud ko side kia but wo kick uske chehre ki jagah haath ko touch kari but wo giri nahi magar jo Rahim gira tha usne usko uthne ka mauka hi na dia n jhatt se apni belt nikaali or us pe Bijli ki tarah barasti chali gai, marta kya na karta ek chillane wali machine ban gaya, or jab haalat jyada bigdi or khud ko sambhal na paaya to Renu ne hi belt gardan p baandh k uthaya or jaa k lock up me feka saale ko



Renu- Ab dekhti hu tujko saale konsa tera baap teri jamaanat karwata hai, Hawaldar torture room ready kro bol k chali gai

Idhar

Rahim je arrest ka sun ke Khan tension me aa gaya tha pehle uska paisa pakda jaana or baad me Rahim ka arrest hona usko bahut jyada gussa aa rha tha , itna hi nahi shaam ko 4 bje press conference kar k Renu is paise ka announcement b karne wali thi matlab wo expose ho jata aur uska election jeetna to mushkil ticket b cancel ho jata



Idhar Lockup me Renu ne fir apna torture game shuru krdia tha aakhir bade din baad koi lock-up me jo aaya tha or wo b Rahim jaisa jabardast banda



Rahim ke haath bandhe hue the piche ki taraf, wo sirf safed underwear p waha khada tha or waha p sirf Renu akeli thi apne haath me danda liye apne niraale torture ke liye jo saamne chair p baithi thi



Renu- To bta kitne aise truck or aane hai or aa chuke hai wo kaha p hai

Rahim- Taki tu Khan bai k adde seize krde ye apun hone nai dega

Renu- Tu tension naa le aaj waise b press conference k baad tera neta public or media k aage nanga hone wala hai

Rahim- Saali Nanga to hum tuje krenge, aisa badla ...

Baat adhuri reh gai kyuki tab tak kataak k saath ek jhatke p Renu ne jordaar tamacha usko laga dia or uske hotho s khoon behne laga

Rahim- maar le saali jitna marna par tu humare muh s kucch na ugalwa skegi

Renu- tere ko ye laga ki maar k ugalwaungi mai, abe konse zamaane me jee rha



Or bolte bolte hi usne Rahim ka ek maatr kapda safed chaddi jhat se niche kardi or Rahim kucch samajh hi nahi paaya ki ye kya kia isne n kaise torture



Rahim- Ye kya krrhi hai tu, krna kya chahti hai

Renu- meri Sazaa , Mazaa b hai or Sazaa b jo jhel jaaye wo mazaa jo na sek sake wo sazaa, chal ek akhiri baar pyaar s puch rhi bata de adde jaha paise aaye hai , jaane dungi



Rahim muskurata hua - Naa jaane de, jab tu mere hatthe chadegi to tujko aisa tadpaunga na saali. Sab hisaab barabar krdunga, Aaj tera din ka mera hoga



Renu- Bilkul hoga, par Kal Kisne dekha hai, tu Aaj to Jee le pehle



Kehne ke saath hi bina koi time gawaaye Renu ne Rahim ka hathiyaar jo ki pehle se hi khada tha muh me le liya



Or bas kya tha Rahim ki to jaise haalat hi bigadne lagi, saari shanapanti gaayab see hone lagi, marta kya na karta waale haalat banne pade



Udhar Renu ko uska pasandeeda khilona bade arso baad mila tha crime khatam ho jaane k wajah se wo to choose hi ja rhi thi aur kabhi kabhi to kaat b deti



Rahim- chorh saali, chorh muje nahi chodunga mai.... Aaah , badlaa le k... Aaaa



Bechara apne shabd b poore nahi kar pa rha tha, dekhte hi dekhte Renu ke muh p pura jhadne ke baad latak gaya or thakaan se tut gaya



Renu- Kyu be mard, namard saabit ho gaya tu to, shuru hone s pehle hi khatam, par abhi mera jee bhara nahi



Rahim- Saali kutiya ab kya chahti hai mujse tu, mujme abhi or saahas nahi bacha, magar mai ye bhulunga nahi



Renu- Bilkul mat bhoolna or jurm ki dunia se juda ho ja nahi to tere badan se tera ang juda krdungi... Chal ab apne adde ka pata bata de nahi to mera 2nd round shuru ho jaana



Rahim ab is haalat me tha hi nahi ki mana krne ka sochta bhi, usne apne 2 Addo ka pata bataya or Renu ne bina koi samay gawaye wahe p fauran raid kari or lagbhag 100 crore money waha s pakdi



4 bje jab press conference hui

To Renu ne Rahim ko as a gawaah pesh krte hue Khan k against saboot media ko diye or jo n paise jabt hue unki details b saath dedi,



Ye sab tamasha kucch din tak chala haalaki Khan mukar gaya or bola usko fasaya ja rha hai magar media coverage milne k chakkar p uski party ne usko nilambit kar k hata dia or ticket to gai saath me political career s b haath dhona pada, ghayal sher ban k reh gaya jo ki badla lena ka wait krne laga



Jabki Rahim ko Renu ne gawaah banne k chakkar p maaf krdia or apna khabri bana lia, ab uski nazar Mathur ke kaale dhan p thi or uska maal Ravi uska right hand control kar rha tha, jo bahut jyada careful the Khan waale incident ke chalte isliye unhone shehar me paise aane hi nahi diye or saara kaala maal border ke uss paar chal rha tha kyuki wo security officerwale unki jeb me the,



Khan ko in sab ki khabar thi wo ye b jaanta tha ki Rahim ab khabri ban chuka hai apne admio s usne mathur ke kaale dhan ki khabar Rahim tak pahuchai or usne Renu tak, idhar jeete ya haare maal pakde jaye ya nahi jeet Khan ki hi thi kyuki Renu or Mathur dono uske awwal dushman the or usko Rahim se b badla lena tha,

Renu ka area nahi hone ke baad b wo raid ka risk le ke apni Jeep p 3 hawaldaar ke saath ravaana hogai location p or kaala dhan seize karne

Jab wo adde p pahuchi to usne bahut jyada savdaahni barti or is operattion k liye local area station ko inform nahi kia kyu ki wo b janti thi ki wo log mile hue hai isliye sirf apne station ke trusted hawaldaar le k pahuch gai
Jaate hi Action me aa gai or 7 log the including Ravi jisko usne gun point pe lelia jo ki truck s paise unload krrhe the. Usko dekh k sab hakke bakke reh gaye kyukk uake darr se wo area k bahar ye kaam krrhe the par Renu ne is area p b aa k un logo ko pakad lia

Ravi- Ae Madam, ye area tumhara nahi, yaha s chali jao, warna accha nahi hoga
Renu- area mera nahi to kya jurm hone du, aise kaise chali jau, ab aayi hu to le k jaungi
Ravi- Ye tumko b pata hai humko andar nahi rakh paogi n humko n maal ko chorhna pdega to time waste mat kro n chali jao
Renu- Jaungi jarur par tumko b maal ko saath le k, chupchap chalo ya encounter me maro. Choice is urs
Ravi- Madam ye b sahi baat hai, haath me revolver me kutta b sher ban jaata, is khilone k dum p ucchal rhi
Renu bandook wapas rkhte hue- meri himmat azmaani hai kya ?
Ravi- Mauka milega to bata dunga hum me kitna hai dum
Renu- Dia mauka tuj ko b tere tajpunjo ko b , Hawaldar chorh do inko n jeep k paas ja k khade ho jao, aaj inko inki aukaat h dikha du pakadne s pehle
Hawaldaar is baat k haq p nahi the par kya krte madam ka jo order tha peeche ho gayez jaante b the ki Renu kya cheej hai,
Udhar 7 bando ne usko gher lia sab k sab khaali haath the n Renu ne b apni revolver wali belt and Cap jeep me rakh di thi
Ravi ne Renu p chalang lagai par wo b ready thi or ek taraf ho gai jis taraf hui waha p Gunda 1 ready tha us k muh p punch maarne ko or b tyaar thi naa sirf uss attack se bachi balki counter attack p usko pair se addandi di uska balance bigda wo gira or jab tak samajh ya sambhal pata Renu ne apne leather boot se uske chehre p waar kia or wo behosh ye sab hakke bakke ho k Ravi or us k saathi dekh rhe the or ab wo 6 logo ka muqabla Renu se tha. Is baat ka poora fayda Renu ne uthaya or Gunde 2 pe apni karate technique s gardan pe waar kia , bechara kya kar paata wo be behoshi ke alam me dub gaya ye sab dekh hawaldar log taaliya bajaa rhe the or maze krehe the, ab teesre gunde ne aage bad ke Renu ko piche se pakadne ka try kia jo ki Renu ki peeth uski taraf thi to aisa laga wo usko pakadne me kamyaab ho gaya but aisa b nahi tha Renu ne na sirf us giraft se khud ko azaad kia balki uske jute se uske guptaang pe waar kia wo bilbilata hua neeche ki taraf baithta gaya or Renu ne uske Sir p peeche se waar kia wo be beshosh ho gaya

Mamla ab kucch aisa tha ki 5 min me hi 7 me s 3 khunjaar gunde Renu k aage sher s dher ho chuke the or ye aab dekh k Ravi or bache 3 Gunde hairaan k saath pareshan b the ki is bala ka muqabla kaise kre, wo ye maan chuke the ki chalaki or himmat se Renu ko harana mushkil hai, kucch jhol jhaal karna pdega nahi to unka b wohi hashar hoga jo baaki gundo ka hua
Renu- kya hua, attack k liye aage kyu nahi a rhe
Ravi- Tension naa le hum 4 log hi bahit hai, tere liye
Renu- Accha hua bata dia warna mai tension le rhi thi ki kya karu
Ravi ne kucch socha or piche ki taraf ho gaya bole to aisa laga ki backout ho gaya, Renu thoda hairaan hui or jaha wo baitha tha us taraf dekhne lagi, wahi baat hui savdhani hati durghatna ghati, gunda 4 or gunda 5 ne bina koi mauka gawaye time ka fayda uthate hue uski taraf chalang laga di, is baar wo ready nahi thi or dono usko le k niche ret me gire, isse pehle wo sambhal pati ya usko hata pati Gunda 6 or Ravi b waha pahuch gaye or usko kick se maarne lage, wo usko wapsi ka mauka nahi dena chahte the ialiye jor jor s usko laato se marne lage, Renu b poori koshish karrhi thi khid ko bachane ki par kamyaab nahj ho pa rhi thi wo log sambhane ka koi b mauka nahi de rhe the, tabhi usne gunde 5 ki taang ko pakad ke apni taraf kheecha jo usko girane k baad khada ho chuka tha uska balance bigda or wo fir niche gir gaya, or iska fayda utha ke Rene ne usko apni dhaal bana lia. Jo b laato se attack ho rhe the wo sab khud se bacha ke Gunde 5 p divert krne lagi usko jakad ke poori tarah apni dhaal banate hue, Ravi b nahi ruka chaahe uska aadmi mar jaaye par wo advantages nahi lose krna chahta tha, itni maar kha k Renu ne she lia par gunda 5 b behosh ho gaya, ye sab dekh ke Ravi ke bache baaki 2 gunde piche ho gaye, matlab Renu ko fir se wapasi ka mauka de hi dia, or is baar wo ghayal sherni ki taraf khadi hui or apne maarhe or hotho se khoon saaf karne hue maar dene wali nazro se Ravi or Gunda 5 or Gunda 6 ko dekhne lagi, jabki Ravi ab tak apne haath me gaadi ki dickey se 1 hockey le ke aa chuka tha
