I have decided to redo this story so here is the new stuff, well I kind of just edited the first two chapters. Disclaimer: I own nothing.

Chapter One

Katrina woke with her head fuzzy she looked around and saw that she was in a cell, her arms were chained to the wall, but she could move them comfortably, well sort of. Where am I? She asked herself. Then a smell reached her that made her want to gag. Gross what is that smell? She asked herself again.

Katrina looked up to see someone cloaked in black. It was a Ra'zac. "How are you feeling?" The Ra'zac asked. His voice was low and menacing. "Tomorrow you sshall see the king." it continued and then laughed walking out of the cell.

Katrina rubbed the side of her head to find that there was dried blood caked. "Roran," Katrina said softly remembering now that she was taken from her lover. Then her head sunk down thinking about him. "He is probably dead by now, he is strong so I may be wrong. I don't know who could survive this though. I am not even sure if I am going to make it," Katrina said softly talking to herself. "I might as well go try to go to sleep."

"Wait, before you go to sleep." A stranger said in the doorway.

"Who's there?" Katrina asked she squinted her eyes to see a young man walking toward her. He wore black head to toe and had eyes that reminded her of Eragon's. His hair was draped over his face and he had a friendly smile but most of his features said that he was not really a joyful person at all.

"My name is Murtagh, I am the king's rider," Murtagh said ashamed at himself.

"I am Katrina." Katrina said smiling at Murtagh. For some reason even though he looked like a non friendly person, Katrina wanted to open to him. Maybe it was the fact that she was better looking than the Ra'zac?

"What a lovely name, you are Roran's fiancé?" Murtagh said like he was trying to remember something.

"Yes, how did you know?" Katrina asked appalled.

"The king knows everything, especially about his enemies," Murtagh said sadly again.

"Why would Roran be an enemy?" Katrina asked.

"He isn't, but Eragon is." Murtagh said avoiding Katrina's face when he said his name.

"What?" Katrina asked loudly. How could Eragon be an enemy? Eragon was sweet, gentle, caring. He always helped her when she needed help. In fact, Katrina could not remember a time when Eragon put himself first.

"I am sorry I cannot say more about him, but I know he is on his way to rescue you." Murtagh continued.

"How is he going to do that? He will get himself killed!" Katrina exclaimed.

"You do not know they new Eragon, he is an amazing fighter and when he wants to do something, there is no stopping him, trust me I would know." Murtagh said smiling thinking about the good old times he and Eragon spent together.

"Where is he?" Katrina asked.

"He is on the right side, he is with the Varden, rebels of the Empire. Their last location was Surda, but they might have moved on to somewhere else," Murtagh explained.

"That does not sound like him, but of course after his uncles death he was acting weird and then he just left." Katrina said coldly. "Roran thought he was dead, well so did everyone else." Katrina said still with a cold voice. "So he has been alive this entire time? I can't believe it. How can you just leave like that?! He left before his Uncle even got buried, I just don't understand-"

"Do not talk so coldly about him!" Murtagh snapped Katrina shut up right away and gaped at Murtagh. "I am sorry, but you probably will never understand why he left, but know this; he is risking everything to come and rescue you from this hell whole. When you see him, you can question him. I was with him for a majority of the time when he was heading toward the Varden and I know that his actions were for the best," Murtagh said through his teeth. Each word he said made him feel more and more sorry for his brother. It made him realize he would never be the man that Eragon was. He could try, but he would never be like him. "Well good day Katrina, I will try to visit everyday and update you on things, if you would like."

"I would, thank you," Katrina responded and watched Murtagh leaving. She tried to soak in what Murtagh had said about Eragon, but all she could do was blame him for everything. He just fled, like it was no big deal, like non of us were going to be affected.

Her mind grew weary and she decided to try to get some sleep, even though she was not comfortable. She fell asleep thinking of Roran and the days that they had spent together in Carvahall, being care free.
