Forbidden Truce ~ Chapter One Bloodied Families

[Cornflower MM]

Arya knew he was serious, but she didn't particularly care. "Oh, just take ME as a prisoner, and that'll solve all our problems! You won't have to shoot me; I get to see Garvina, along with getting some rest!" She said loudly, as she was close enough not to shout by now.

[rachel25]

"Forget it." Laughed the guard, "I'm not stupid. Your not just here to talk to Garvina. You want something, and your not getting it."
With that the guard loaded up his bow, and fired. He had aimed to just miss the squirrelmaid. A kind of warning shoot if you like, but if she didn't scarper after that, then he would kill her.

[Cornflower MM]

"If that's what you think, then you really are stupid." Arya called, then when the arrow shot over her head, she rolled her eyes.

[rachel25]

"She just doesn't get the point." The guard said to himself, loading up his bow. He aimed for her shoulder, took aim, and fired.

OOC: Donavin's me are excellent shots, so Arya has a high chance of being hit. But if she is, then Arya could pretend to faint or something, then the otters would take her inside to care for her. You don't have to, its just a suggestion.

[Cornflower MM]

Arya sighed when she saw the guard loading up his bow again. Thump! The squirrel yelped in pain, the arrow had hit her shoulder, and she decided to "Faint" If it got her in there, all was well and good. If not, she had nothing to lose. She staggered back theatrically, and then fell down, as if in a faint. She sniggered to herself; If they fell for this, she;'d have to remember that the otters weren't exactly the smartest in the bunch. Now, if you shoot an arrow at someone who wants to go in, and that creature faints, almost too well, wouldn't that arouse suspicion?

[rachel25]

OOC: She probably would have screamed or something. It is painful to be shot in the shoulder.

BIC: The guard looked down at the squirrelmaid, he wondered if he had accidently shot her in the heart. No, she would have gone straight down, instead of all that staggering. At least, he supposed she would have.
The guard swore, and then hurried down the wallsteps, and out the gate. If she was trying to trick him, by attacking him, it wouldn't work. She was at least wounded, and he was way bigger, and stronger than she was.
He walked up to her, and examined her, no the arrow hadn't hit her heart, it had gone straight into her shoulder. He poked at her with his bow, to see if she was pretending.

[Cornflower MM]

Arya felt something poking her a few moments later, and remained still. She'd retreated into a little spot in her head where pain, and things poking her, sidn't matter. Just listening to the rhythm of her breathing. In, out, in, out.

[rachel25]

The guard swore, and bent down over the squirrelmaid, he then picked her up, over his shoulder, and headed back into the Castle. He'd just have to lock her up in the gatehouse, then remove the arrow. Once she was awake he'd have to take outside or something. The guard knew he'd have to tell someone in charge, he guessed they wouldn't be too angry, that he'd brought one of the enemy into the Castle.

[Faiyloe]

OOC: your over run by the "enemy"

[Cornflower MM]

OOC: Whaaat?

[Faiyloe]

OOC: Well currently there are like 6 of us there.

[rachel25]

OOC: Well, the guard doesn't necessarily know that. 

[Cornflower MM]

OOC: Oh...

BIC: Arya felt him pick her up, and remained still.

[rachel25]

The guard carried her through the gate, and into the gatehouse. He locked the door, and went over to the unconscious squirrel. "I better get a medical kit." He mused, and then left the gatehouse, locking it behind him.

[Cornflower MM]

Arya heard the door open, close, then something clicked, then she was set down, and she heard the gaurd mutter something. Then the door clicked, opened, closed, and clickrd again. She waited until he was five seconds away, then opened her eyes, and looked at the arrow in her shoulder while laying down. "Ouch." She muttered, then shut her eyes.
