scramble the number in a? place, say the ath place, is moved to the bth place and the number in the cth place is moved to the dth place and the number in the eth place is moved to the fth place .In the next scrambling the new number in the ath number is moved to the bth place and the number in the cth place is moved to the dth place and so on. If the intial order is 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 and the order of the numbers after TWO scrambles is 6 5 13 10 12 8 2 3 7 11 9 1 4, then what is the order after the third scramble? (WITH REASONING)

Additional Details
I am not sure if i was clear about this but for each position the number in that position, say position a, gets scrambled to another specific position where numbers from always go to after being scrambled.
