Chapter Six

The Prisoner...

Well, I was right she was as pretty as I thought... Thorn said as he leaned closer to her Nasuada face and slowly sniffed her hair when Murtagh puts her slowly on the bed. Thorn just roared a little when his rider ignored him, He never likes to be ignored, Thorn always want answers.

Murtagh looked at his dragon and just smirked, I'm sure this isn't the first time you actually saw her, I am pretty sure that you have snooped in my mind to know what she look like. He smirked even more when his dragon just looked at him and blew smoke at him.

There was a knock on the door and a little girl with bright red hair and green eyes came in, she looked at Thorn and shivered as she ran to Murtagh. "Murtagh, you came back." She yelled and hugged Murtagh's knee since that is the only part she could reach.

"Freya, don't yell to loud, the old dragon might bite you." Murtagh said, and he stared at his dragon who roared at him. You are older than me. Old man! Thorn yelled at Murtagh's head that he felt that his dragon's voice echoed in his skull. He then kneeled on the floor to be able to stare at the girls bright green eyes.

"Alright," she whispered as she hugged his neck. "I'm glad you're back, I heard that you were not going to be back for a while, because you have to train with Lord Galbatorix." She whispered in his ear and looking at the dragon that was looking down at her, the same way Murtagh is looking at her.

"Well, I have a new mission. So I don't need to train with him for awhile now." He whispered back to her ear, and when she heard that she hugged him some more. "I'm glad your happy then." He said as he hugged her back. Then he slowly pulled her away and looked at her eyes, "Now I have a mission for you… Are you up for it?" he asked in a normal voice.

The little girl nodded excitedly as she looks at him attentively. "Alright…" then he slowly leaned to her ear telling her the little mission

A few moments later….

Murtagh stares at all young lady mistresses that was called by little Freya. All the mistresses looked as scared as ever since Thorn is just standing there, looking as if he was ready to bite anyone who disobeys. They were all standing outside the prison room of Nasuada.

"Behind this room is one of the most important person in that is against our lord Galbatorix," He informed firmly, to this most of the mistresses gasped. "But here is the deal, no one gets in that room, you will only open the door to give this guest food. No one will stay long to open the curtain and check who it is. And I will know." He added as he stared at his lady mistresses each in the eye before he could continue. "Understood?" he asked and they all nodded.

"You may all leave." He said. "Oh by the way, if you guys don't mind our guest is out little secret." He said as he winked at the younger mistresses and most of them giggled.

Murtagh softly bows to them as a sign of a sending off to their chores. He then looks at his dragon and grins.

What makes you think that they will not tell Galbatorix? Thorn asked Murtagh who just looked at his dragon as if the dragon doesn't know anything.

Well, you probably don't know anything about ladies don't you? Murtagh asked sarcastically. Why do you think I chose young ladies for this job? He added as he winked at his dragon who snarled at him.

Then a faint noise was heard from the other end of the room, as if someone was throwing things at the door. Murtagh and Thorn looked at each other. I guess our guest woke up early as planned. Murtagh said as he walked to the door. I'm sure you'd like to come with me inside Thorn? Murtagh asked his dragon who just nodded and started to walk behind him.

I am certain I want to see her. Thorn said as he started to hum when Murtagh started to open the door.
