Hello everyone! So this is my first GOT fanfic…it's a Robb/OC (aka Tania Mallister) fanfic. It should mainly follow the series but I will probably mention characters that are in the books but not in the series (like Dacey Mormont and Patrek Mallister etc.).

Hope you guys enjoy. This is the beginning of a wild idea I had when I realised Arya and The Hound were just outside the Twins at the time of the massacre!

Why did it have to rain? She thought to herself while walking in the woods that surrounded Seagard. Usually rain was good in the Riverlands for it made the animals come out of the hiding spots…But not today.

Today, Tania wished for sunlight, warm weather and she was even bold enough to hope for a raven with some news of her father or of her brother. It was the second day in a row that she tried hunting and came back with nothing. She needed to find something and soon or else she might end up having difficulties in trying to feed everyone. She stopped at the sound of leaves and trees moving.

Could it be a deer? She thought to herself

A deer would be a blessing from the gods for she could feed a lot of people with one deer. Tania stringed an arrow and crept towards the noise…until she hear a loud thump…like something had fallen

She did not see a deer but a black horse and next to it was a small boy soaked to the bone and a taller one next to him, trying to wake him up.

"Arya wake up!" she heard

Tania walked closer. The other man jumped up and took out a dagger.

"Stay away!" said the man. She then realised she still had her bow and arrow out.

Tania put it aside before walking towards them. "I mean no harm. I want to help you" she said with her hands in the air. She moved closer and looked at the boy who was, in fact, a girl.

"She needs water." said Tania. She gave water to the girl

"You as well." She added before handing him her water skin. He drank it all.

"Robb" they heard whispering

"I'm here Arya." The man said.

Tania looked at him carefully…it was then that she saw it, his brooch. It was a wolf. The man before her was Robb stark, the king of the North.

But what was he doing here?

"We must continue. Come" he said while trying to get her up.

"It's no use." Said Tania. "You are both exhausted. The horse is exhausted. Come with me I don't live far. You can rest and heal your wound" she said gesturing to his leg

"How do I know you're not a spy?" He asked

She pointed his brooch. "My name is Tania Mallister. I'm acting Lady of Seagard till my father's return. You might know him…Lord Jason Mallister." She said. "We are friends of the North and loyal to your cause and claim. Please come with me it will be much safer."

Robb knew she was right. He needed rest and heal his leg and so did Arya. He also needed time to think about his options. Suddenly a lightning bolt tore up the sky…A storm was coming.

"Please. I mean no harm I swear" she said.

Robb hoisted Arya back on the horse and followed the girl. After a short walk the arrived to a citadel…a half ruined citadel but still.

"Welcome to Seagard Robb and Arya Stark."

They finally got inside and Tania led them to a large room with a roaring fire.

"I will be back shortly with some dry clothes for both of you and our Maester."

She came back shortly with the master. She had discarded her hood and cloak, thus showing thick blond hair that was tuck behind her head.

"This is Maester Thomas. He will then to your wound. You can trust him" said Tania. Robb nodded.

"Now rest. Both of you. You are safe here no harm will come to you I promise."

"Thank you"

"You're welcome"

She turned around, and Robb saw the hilt of a sword strapped to her hip…he didn't know why but it made him feel safe. After the master was done, he went to the bed where Arya was already sleeping; he pulled Arya close to him and quickly drifted into sleep.

Arya was the first to wake up the next day. She panicked at the sight of this strange place but was soon reassured when she saw Robb sleeping next to her. She then heard the door open slowly and a woman came in holding a variety of things. She smiled at Arya.

"Hello." She said "How are you feeling?" she asked

"Not too bad" answered Arya while getting up.

"You must be hungry?" asked the mysterious women. Arya didn't know why but the woman standing in front of her was slightly familiar.

Arya waved vigorously. Tania smiled and handed her plate of bread cheese along with an apple.

Arya ate everything. "Forgive me but I don't remember your name Milady" said Arya

"No need for titles here. My name is Tania." She answered

"I'm Arya. And this is Robb. He's my brother" said Arya pointing at her brother.

"I know. You are very lucky I was there. That storm could have killed you both." Said Tania

"And we are very grateful for your help" said Robb whilst getting up.

"May I ask what happened your grace? How come are you so far away from Riverrun?" she asked

"Please call me Robb."

"Only if you call me Tania."

"If you insist. We left Riverrun a few days ago for the Twins. There was a massacre at there. I barely escaped with my life.

"The Twins?" said Tania. "But, that's impossible; I heard there was a wedding. Lord Tully's wedding in fact."

"Yes. My uncle Lord Edmure Tully did marry Roslyn Frey, but Walder Frey and some of my own men betrayed me. They were in league with the Lannisters. Good people were butchered that night. Others were taken prisoners like my mother, Lord Tully and…

"My brother? He was with your army I think. His name is…" she didn't get to finish her sentence

"Patrek Mallister, I know him. Good man. He was one on my personal guard that night." Said Robb

"Do you…Do you know if he is alive?" she asked with a low voice, almost a whisper.

"I think so yes. I think he was taken prisoner with the others" he answered. "It happened so quickly. One minute the bedding ceremony was starting then the next the doors were closed and the musicians started to shoot at us. I ran to my wife but she was already dead… Then I got shot."

Tania covered her mouth with her hand. "I am so sorry." she said

"Then I don't exactly recall how but the doors opened and…"

"It was me!" said Arya. "I came in with the Hound."

"Yes you did." he said kindly to his sister. "The Hound, surprisingly killed a couple of them, pushed some tables around to help us escape. Then my mother held a knife to Walter Frey's wife throat. She begged me to save my life and Arya's. I shouldn't have left her there."

"You did what you thought was best. You saved your life along with your sister." Said Tania, trying to be reassuring. "Walter Frey is cruel and a traitor but I don't think he would harm a noble man like Lord Tully nor you mother. He will probably try to ransom them more likely." she added

"Probably. If that is the case then we must be on our way very soon. I must find my Great Uncle as soon as possible."

"The Blackfish? Ser Brynden Tully?" She asked

"Yes. I don't suppose you know where he is?" asked Robb

"No. But they are ways to find out." She said.

Tania stood up and walked to the door. "Stay and rest. You are safe here like I said yesterday." She opened the door and gestured to someone to come in. The man was a little old but looked valiant.

"This is Duncan. If you need anything at all you ask him. I will be back shortly hopefully with some news." She said before leaving, closing the door behind her.

After a moment of silence Arya turned around to face her brother. "Do you trust her?" she asked Robb

"Yes. I think we must"

"She's nice. "added Arya

Yes she is, Robb though to himself.
