Raavana sends Indrajith to war

Raavana grieved very much hearing the demise of Makaraakshudu.From sorrow,he became angry.He crushed his teeth and thought of what he should do next.He called for his son,Indrajith.Hey warrior son!at any cost you have to kill Raama and Lakshmana.I do not know whether you fulfill the task by fighting direct or by disappearing in the sky.Take your entire army with you.You defeated Indra.It is a negligible matter for you to kill human beings.Indrajith agreed to do as per his fathers bidding.He went to Yajna bhoomi to do the homam or yajnam.Demon women readied red clothes for Ruthviks to wear and other materials necessary to do Yajna.As usual,Indrajith did Homam to regain strength to attain invisibility .He alighted a chariot,became invisible,secure with Brahmaasthram and entered war field.He attacked Raama and Lakshmana,who were in the middle of vaanara army.Raama and Lakshmana released arrows which covered the entire sky,but not even a single arrow touched Indrajith.Indrajith darkened the sky with his magical powers and released arrows on Raama and Lakshmana.Brothers could neither hear the sound of releasing the arrows from bow,sound of wheels of the chariot nor sound of the hoofs of the horses.But arrows from Indrajith came in large numbers.Bodies of Raama and Lakshmana were filled with many arrows.Arrows ,which Raama and Lakshmana released touched Indrajiths body and fell down drenched in blood.They were releasing arrows in the direction from where arrows attcaked them,but by them Indrajith moved from that place and attacked from all directions.Vaanaraas died in large numbers. Lakshmana got angry with these developments and told Raama that he would release Brahmaasthram intending destruction of entire demon clan.Raama told him that it was not wised apt to kill all the demons in the world just to kill a single demon.I will,now kill Imdrajith ,wherever he might be ,like in Earth,Heaven,Rasaathalam,sky or wherever he might go and hide,with my arrows.He would die and fall down on the ground.Hearing Raamas determined promise to kill him,Indrajith stopped his fight and went back to the city.
