-----------------

Kira walked along the dark corridor, her head hanging. Ever step was a step closer to her death, every breathe felt like her last. The tension is the air was high all the time. She slowly swung the bucket of water in her hand, the sound of the water swishing seem to give a rhythm to her life. She felt her mind dissolve into her past. She gently skimmed her fingers across the dark walls as she walked past them. Suddenly the only source of light in the corridor, coming from an upcoming window was blocked. A figure stood about 10 meters in front of her. Kira's eyes widened and her sweaty palms dropped the bucket. The metal bucket fell to the cold hard marble with a loud clatter, the soapy water spilled across the floor and the bucket rolled away. The sound rang through the corridor. Kira trembled and slowly kneeled down to pick the bucket, her hands shaking, her eyes still watching the figure now towering over her. He walked towards her and stepped on her fingers. A wave of pain shot up her arm and she whimpered. She bowed her head towards him. He grabbed held of her hair and pulled her up. His face was inches away from her face. His green eyes stared at her arrogantly and she met his eyes with her silver ones.

"Get this cleaned and report to my room once you're done, I will be waiting for you." He whispered in her ears. He traced her lips with his fingers and lingered his lips over hers before drawing back. He turned and walked away. Kira fell to the floor whimpering, her heart was racing. The water soaked her clothes and her hair. She grabbed the bucket and started mopping the water off.

Kira shuffled towards the door. Her breathing was labored and her vision blurring. She softly knocked on the door. It swung open immediately and he grabbed her. He smiled seducing at her and dragged towards the bed. Another man was sitting next to the bed with a cold expression on his face. Kira eyes widened as she saw him. Lord Murtagh.

"I'm bored of this routine Egeus, I'm going," Murtagh declared and got up. Egeus rushed toward Murtagh and held his shoulders. Murtagh glared at him.

"Murtagh, Murtagh! Come on, you're going to soft, harden up Murtagh, it's you're turn today, come on, please." Egeus gave him a pleading look. Murtagh looked defeated. Kira felt her heart race as she felt Murtagh lay his eyes on her. His blue eyes made her shiver with fright. Egeus gave him a push.

"Look, Lord Murtagh, these are the skills you got to learn. Women, they are our weaknesses but they really should be our strengths. Galbatorix will have my head if I don't teach you these skills." Egeus pleaded. Murtagh bit his lips. Kira wrapped her arms around her legs and stared at him with awe. He walked over and gave her a hand. Kira felt her heart warm up to him. She nearly cracked a smile but stopped herself. She gently took it and got up. Egeus frowned.

"I'll show you how it has to be done," he said. He pushed Kira down and then took a good grip of her collar and pulled her up. Kira felt her lips quiver.

'Egeus, go, I know what to do about the rest, just go," Murtagh said angrily. Egeus smiled and patted his shoulder.

"I know it's hard but you're learning, I'll quiz you and Kira all about it, don't go easy on her." He added as he chuckled and walked out of the door. Kira retreated to the corner of the room and her heart started to race wildly. Murtagh advanced on her. She felt his hot breathe on her face. He shoved his face next to hers and caressed her cheek. She felt his tongue trail from her ear to her mouth. Kira wanted to scream. Murtagh grabbed her waist and pulled her closer to him. Kira's eyes widened and her heart felt like it was going to be torn apart. She felt Murtagh get more intense. Her rubbed his body against hers and forced an entry into her mouth. Kira fought back but allowed him finally to enter her. He picked her up and carried her to the bed. Her heart was pounding loudly now. Kira let out squeal. Murtagh pushed her down and got on top of her. He ripped her clothes apart.

"Lord Murtagh, please no, please don't!" Kira whispered pleadingly. Tears collected in her eyes. Murtagh's blue eyes watched her and smiled understandingly at her. He bit his lip and he forced himself to get off her. Kira's eyes widened in surprise. He quickly pulled her off the bed and pushed her against the wall. She crumpled and fell to the floor.

"Trevius Moo Raein!" he screamed. She let out a howl as a wave of pain passed through her body ripping everything apart. After several minutes the pain subsided and she fell to the floor bare conscious. Her nose started to bleed profusely. Murtagh fell to the floor next to her and grabbed her and gently rested her on his bed. His eyes formed tears.

"Kira, I'm sorry, I really am but I had to." He whimpered. Kira looked up at his blurred face as a tear fell from his face to her cheek. He held her hand and pulled her up so that her head was rested against his shoulder. He hugged tightly and whispered I'm sorry before he got up and opened the door. Egeus came in with a huge smile on his face.

"I'm proud of you boy, Galbatorix will be very proud of you, you sure did her well." He chuckled and Murtagh frowned, disgusted.

"Egeus u are now dismissed, I will get someone to take her to her quarters." Murtagh replied curtly. Egeus bowed and walked off. Murtagh rushed over to her, pick her up and walked her into the corridor to her quarters. He set her on her bed.

"Kira, I am so sorry, but that was the only way I could you save you the pain. Forgive me, avoid Egeus or me as much as you can, you will save yourself the torture, goodbye." Murtagh turned to leave but Kira caught hold of his tunic.

"Lord Murtagh, thank you, you're nothing like you're father or our dragon rider, I am in debt to you." Kira whispered and managed a feeble smile. Murtagh looked at her. His eyes clouded. He bowed.

"Thank you but the compliment is quite untrue, I am my father, I am just as cruel and twisted as he was, so please, just stay out of my way or else." Murtagh uttered and walked off. Kira felt her heart warm and race as she saw Murtagh give her a last searching look. Destiny.
