Timeless Vengeance

I really enjoyed writing this chapter, and hope to hear some feedback, thank you.

Towards the end of the second day Arya finally felt her magic return to her, over whelmed with joy she prepared spell, just to make sure her magic was back, but caught herself right before she started.

"There might be spell casters in the area." She thought to herself

She knew if anyone felt her use magic then they would be alerted, and she would never get out. So instead she decided to meditate until the officer arrived. What seemed like seconds to Arya turned out to be hours. Arya was pulled out of her meditation with voices out in the hall. She quickly lied down on the stone slab and pretended to grimace with pain. Only until she heard the officer say.

"You can stop now."

Is when stopped and sat up to look at him. He slowly walked over to her and sat down next to her. She looked at him and saw he was deep in thought. So she decided to wait and let him speak on his own. Several moments went by.

"Last time I was here I told you why I betrayed the empire."

He took a long pause.

"When I was younger I was dragged out of my home and forced to join the Emperial army. My mother was in frenzy, my father tried to calm her. She wouldn't listen and broke away and tried to push the soldiers off me; one of the men then grabbed her by her hair and stabbed her through the back. Father then attacked the soldiers; he managed to kill two before he was struck down."

By this point the officer had his face buried in his hand. He looked up at her, eyes swollen bright red, on the verge of tears.

"I watched both my parent slowly die that day. That was also the day that I swore on my life I would do every single thing I could to destroy the Empire. So I spent the next two and a half decades climbing the ranks and learning all the secrets I could. So that one day I could assist anyone who would oppose Galbatorix. Then I Started to hear whispers and rumors that elf was captured, I then decided this was the perfect time to act. So I contacted the Varden and told them the same story I'm telling you now. At first they were cautious of me, and then I gave them the information on the twins being spies. That gave them enough trust in me to talk about getting you out. So that's it, that's my story, revenge 25 years in the making."

His last statement has said with so much passion, determination, and courage Arya shudder at it. After an appropriate pause he began again, this time in his normal tone.

"As for how we're getting you out. Well, we're going to walk out?"

Arya looked at him confused. He chuckled at the look on her face

"How? How are we going to walk out? There must be hundreds of guards between here and the gate?"

He started chuckling again. Before he began

"Let's call it another act of trust. One of Galbatorix's more trusted officers has recently been knocked out and she's on her way here now. Now I'm guessing you have use of your magic right?"

Arya nodded

"Ok good, now, I know that elves can use magic to change their facial features"

Arya was slowly beginning to understand.

"When she gets here, you change her facial features to match yours, and you'll completely change yours around."

Arya's eyes widened, then regained her composure.

"It's an interesting plan. But how will you keep her unconscious long enough to escape? Let alone not alerting Durza?"

He began to laugh now.

"I have given this plan more though than you might think. The drug she was given also prevents any coherent thought. Which means you can use your mind to place her in a comatose state; you can also put up barriers in her mind like you do when Durza tortures you. Since he's used to using methods that would kill any human, she won't live for long tomorrow. And if that wasn't good Durza will no doubt have to answer to the king because of it." He said with a hint of humor

"And it just so happens, her body will be found to the east. Mauled and killed by a pack of wolves."

"And as for we're walking out. You me and a group of "new recruits, will be going on a mission for the king himself."

"These "new recruits", where are they from?"

He caught on and answered in a way he knew would answer her question

"They volunteered from a, southern village." He replied slyly

Arya just grinned which was unusual for an elf

"One last question, If Arya dies from torture, then who gets mauled by wolves?"

"A young scout, no one will notice her disappearance."

As if on que there were three loud thuds on the door. Arya jumped at the notice.

"Bring her in." The officer replied

The door opened and two soldiers brought in an unconscious woman. Who Arya assumed aw the officer. She moved while the two guards laid the woman on the stone slab.

"Can you remember what her face looks like?"

The male Officer asked

"I should be able to."

Then she got to work changing each-others appearance. After that was done Arya broke into the officer's mind it was surprisingly easy, she went and placed her in a coma and added barriers to her mind. Finaly she hid all traces of her tampering.

"Is it done?"

"Yes."

The officer then Signaled to the two other and waved them out.

"Wait where are you going?"

"Well, I doubt you want a bunch of men staring at you while change."

He replied with a hint of humor. Arya only blush. And watched the door close. She never herd the lock turn so she knew it was still unlocked. She then quickly switched clothes with the officer. Before she finished, she added the injuries and bruises to the officer that she has obtained, to add to the hoax. When she was finished, she casually walked out of the cell and was greeted by a group of six soldiers who bowed, and the officer standing to her left. And two others who acted as guards to the cell.

"Wont the guards be suspicious of me with you?"

"No, You're uniform speaks your Position. They won't bother you."

One of the cell guards said.

"We'll meet you and the others by the stables."

The other guards said

"The guard changes soon, you best bee off."

Arya nodded and gestured to the officer to lead the way without a second thought they left the prison. She was careful to keep her barriers up to keep the appearance of a high ranking officer. She was careful not to let her excitement shine through her barriers. By the time the group reached the stables there were the two other two guards waiting for them. Arya couldn't help but feel relieved. Without a second thought they all got on horses and headed towards the main gate. They were stopped by a watchman. Arya looked at the officer next to her who only gave a small wink.

"Where are you going?" The watchman asked the two officers in front of him.

"Neither do you need, nor do I have to tell you. If you have a problem with that then go complain to the king." He replied in an obviously threating tone.

The watchman flinched and waved them past. When they were far enough away from the city the group changed directions to east and traveled for well over an hour before coming to a small clearing, only a few miles from the city. When Arya looked around and saw a woman who was recently killed by wolves. Arya looked at the officer who only nodded. Arya got off the horse and walked over careful not to leave any deep prints.

When she was finished the dead woman looked just like her. After she returned to her horse and saddled up, she whispered a spell, and scuff marks and wolf prints appeared all over the place even her prints turned to wolf prints. She casted another spell, this one would make the horses hooves will leave wolf prints instead. To give the illusion of a large pack. After so they turned their horse around and started off to the Beor Mountains.
