The sage said
Listen Janmajeya - The son of Arjuna, fought valiantly. The formation, which was like a slow blooming lotus, had been penetrated by Abhimanyu. At every petal formation, Abhimanyu killed many people.Bodies were floating in pools of blood. A son of Shakuni came to fight and was killed by Abhimanyu.
Duryodhana went to Drona and asked him how to stop Abhimanyu. He said You are pleased with the skill of Abhimanyu and that is why you remain quiet.
Drona got angry. He said No one is able to face the son of Arjuna. He is a great warrior like his father. If Karna had to face defeat in his hands, who do you think and defeat him? If you want to defeat Abhimanyu, then you will have fight using unfair means. Do not forget that this is Krishna's nephew. He will be able to defeat all, alone.
Duryodhana then gave orders for seven of the Kuru warriors to face Abhimanyu together.
Kripa said this was not a proper means of fighting.
Duryodhana said this was the time to win the war. Kill the boy by any means and win the war.
It was decided. Drona, Kripa, Karna, Shakuni, Dushsasana, Ashwatthama and Duryodhana decided to surround Abhimanyu and attack him.
The sky was covered with arrows.
Abhimanyu was aghast seeing this unfair means of fight. Abhimanyu shot arrows cutting off arrows coming towards him. He was easily able to overcome the seven warriors. Duryodhana said to Drona - See this boy make a massacre of my army.
Drona and the others attacked again. This time they cut his chariot and then his bow. With his bow gone, Abhimanyu jumped with a sword and sheild in his hand. Karna, with an arrow, cut off his shield. Abhimanyu then began fighting with the sword. He began cutting whoever came in front of him. Ashwatthama, with three arrows, cut off the sword. Abhimanyu now realized that there was no way and his end was near. He looked around and could not see any Pandava warrior close by. His father and uncle were far away, fighting.
He then picked up a wheel of a chariot and using that, began fighting using that.
Karna, with five arrows, cut off the wheel. He picked up another wheel and used that to avoid the arrows coming at him. Soon, with the arrows hitting him, it looked as if a porcupine was fighting. Abhimanyu was now tired. Seeing this, the warriors attacked again.
A son of Dushasana then jumped forward with his mace and struck Abhimanyu.
The blow hit him so hard and that he lost his life. Abhimanyu fell and went over to the land of the moon, Chandraloka, where he had originally come from.
The Kauravas then started celebrating, playing musical instruments.
Yudhistira heard this and fainted.
The sun also set and the day of the war came to an end.
