Arjuna fights Chitrasen

Yudhistira said to Arjuna, Stop the Gandharva before he reaches his abode. Rescue Duryodhana. Do not fight or quarrel with Duryodhana.
Bhima and Arjuna said We are happy. Of all the evil that he has done towards us, now is the time for him to suffer. Now that Duryodhana is out of the way, we can go and take over our kingdom.
Yudhistira said What you said is not wrong. I also want to fight but this is not the time. Chitrasen will take Duryodhana's wife and give her as a maid in the heaven. This will not be good for the family. We will become a laughing stock for all. Your strength will be doubted.

Arjuna's pride was hurt. Without any delay he took Yudhistira's blessings and taking the name of Govinda, he set forth.

Chitrasen saw Arjuna coming and he increased the speed of his chariot. Arjuna with a weapon stopped the motion of the chariot. Chitrasen got down from his chariot and seeing Arjuna asked him the reason for stopping him. He said - You have come to rescue one who tried ways to kill you. Leave my way and let me go.

Arjuna said The fight is between us and Duryodhana, so why are you intervening. Duryodhana is elder to me and it is my duty to respect that.

A war started between Arjuna and Chitrasen. Using the same weapon that Chitrasen had used to tie Duryodhana, Arjuna bound the gandharva and then taking Duryodhana, the women and Chitrasen went where Yudhistira was.

Yudhistira untied Duryodhana and the women and asked Arjuna to release Chitrasen.

Duryodhana then set forth for Hastinapur and Chitrasen returned back to his owm palace.

Duryodhana bound by Chitrasen

The Gandharva then attacked Duryodhana. Duryodhana had to take care of the women travelling with him and also fight along side. Using a weapon, Chitrasen bound Duryodhana. Putting the bound Duryodhana along with the women in his chariot, Chitrasen started driving away. The women started shouting out for help. Someone of them started cursing Duryodhana, saying all this was happening because of the fight he had picked up with the Pandavas.
Not seeing any way out, Duryodhana's wife asked a soldier to somehow run from there and trace out the Pandavas and seek their help. She said she was aware that her husband had done many bad deeds and there was a possibility that Pandavas could refuse to help. If that was so, then she was prepared to consume poison and die.
The soldier rushed and soon was able to find the Pandavas sitting with sages. The soldier said he had come for help. In a war with Chitrasen, Karna, Dushasana and Salva had fled the battlefield. Duryodhana had been bound and captured and was being taken away, along with the women of the royal household. Seeing no other way, Duryodhana's wife had asked him to seek help from the Pandavas.

Hearing this, Yudhistira was hurt. He asked Arjuna to go and help Duryodhana and rescue him.

Chitrasen attacks Duryodhana

The army and troupe of Duryodhana went through the forest. On the way they trampled many trees. As destiny would have it, they ended up crossing a garden which belonged to the Gandharva Chitrasen. The guards reported to their master that the garden had been destroyed by Duryodhana. They said they tried to stop him, but Duryodhana had insulted them and said they were alive because he was not in a mood to fight. Karna and the others had then pushed the guards out.
Chitrasen climbed up on his chariot and decided to confront Duryodhana. He went where Duryodhana was and said - You dare destroy my garden and behave rudely. Have you lost the desire for life?
Saying this the Gandharva shot an arrow which hid the sun and it became dark. Karna then shot an arrow and the sun was visible again. Seeing this Chitrasen shot a few arrows which were cut off by Karna. The Gandharva then picked an weapon called Simhamukha and aimed that. Karna cut that off. The snake weapon was released which was cut off by Karna who release eagles.
Chitrasen said he was pleased to see the skill of Karna. He then released a few arrows which hit Karna and he fell senseless. While Karna was trying to get up, the army attacked Chitrasen but the gandharva cut off all the weapons of the army. Karna then began showering weapons.
Chitrasen then understood that to combat this, magic would be needed. He then made himself invisible and then started showering arrows. Unable to fight an invisible enemy, the army was soon vanquished. Unable to fight, Karna soon gave up.
