Border

“I suppose we better head North to the border, the Reeds apparently have one of the keys to unlock the armour, we can also see how military capable they are!” I spoke Brienne looking down at the map spoke, “Then up to Jon, south to Cersei and so on. Almost like a circle!” I nodded before staring at the map spoke, “Do we have an eta on this supposed White Walker battle?” Brienne shook her head but commented, “I heard from Jon that his men were getting physically ready with weapons and armour, so only a few weeks max. Who do we even side with? If the houses are going to kill each other afterwards why even bother helping? We could just kill whatever’s left after?” “Because the dead are brought back as one of them...meaning if the humans lose the more you have to kill...We just need to kill the king and it all comes tumbling down!” I nodded before putting the spare tent onto the back of my horse and mounting it helped Arya up on her’s and looking back Brienne spoke, “Nothing we are missing?” I shook my head before saying, “Come on let’s go!

We rode up to the border and looking at the darkness that encroached Brienne spoke, “We should be near, should be only a bit further!” I nodded and looking across the woods started to see the growing orange light appear, “Told you!” Brienne pointed out and looking over to Arya spoke, “Anything I should know like Meera doesn’t go by her name Meera or don’t mention something? I don’t want another mess up like with Brienne!” she shook her head before reflecting on it spoke, “No, just don’t mention Bran my brother, she liked him a lot!” I nodded before asking, “And if she does?” “Be careful on what you say!” I nodded before, “I always am!” before hopping off to walk into the town I was met by the very woman barging past us, “Watch it!” I snapped and turning around spoke, “Who are you?” “You Meera?” “Yeah and you are!” “James!” “Never heats of you, however I know Arya and Brienne!” “We have come to talk to you!” she groans loudly before snapping, “Look! I am busy, I am going to retrieve Bran from his prison, so either help or get lost!” I looked at her who hopefully waited for my response and nodding said, “Fine, let’s go! But you owe us!” “You bring him back here and I will give you all the time in the world!” I nodded before mounting up spoke, “Where to?” “Follow me!”

We rode up deep into the woods and stop outside a cave and dismounting Brienne spoke, “Can’t be safe in there surely?” Meera walked in so shrugging I simply spoke, “Probably isn’t but let’s go!” she nodded what was weird was he was sat there alone against the wall staring at us before speaking, “Hello Meera!” she rushed up to him and looking into his eyes spoke, “Did they hurt you?” she remained still before saying, “Isu have come! come closer Isu’s son!” I stepped forward and offering out his hand I took it as he spoke, “****! Surrounded by ****! **** has been unleashed!” I rolled my eyes before saying, “Bran...shut up!” “Bran is dead, I am the three-eyed raven!” “The what?” I snorted laughing which caused Arya to hit my arm. “Your coming was foretold. A man on a mission to stop suffering, unknown to the White Walkers but yet so familiar! Me and you aren’t so different!” “Bran it’s me Meera!” “Bran is Dead, I am three-eyed raven!” I repeated causing me to say, “So we can leave him?” “James he is my brother and Meera’s friend!” “Correction he was!” “Beware Isu warrior not all is what it will seem, a redhead will try to lead you astray and a family member will need help! If you don’t heed this warning you will fail!” I groaned before saying, “I assume you mean Sansa will lead me astray and this mislead Isu is my family! Who is my this ISU!” he went to answer before saying, “Wights are coming for us! We need to leave!” “What?” Brienne leaned over before saying, “Frozen dead!” “You mean zombies?” “What?” “Never mind, just dead people who have risen up and crave flesh and brains!” “Sort of! Meera you get cripple ready and we will fight them! I hope you are ready!” I smirked before saying, “Always! Let’s?” “Let’s!” as we walked out to meet the “Wights”

We stood there and smiling I heard, “This better be worth it!” “Of course it isn’t! A deranged cripple who can tell the future...what will that offer us?” she nodded as the footsteps the boots head towards us and drawing out weapons I spoke, “Well lets see what you can really do!” “Want a wager?” “Alright whoever kills the most gets three wishes from the others! You in?” I asked Arya causing her to say, “You have a special weapon though, it’s unfair!” “Ten man head start?” she nodded and smiling Brienne asked, “Does it include anything?” “Within reason!” she nodded and seeing the first few come we walked forward and starting to attack the zombie like creatures. There were tones of them who all fell by the sword and Brienne proved her point, when her sword was lodged inside a Wight used a broken spear to fight and when that broke again, a dagger and finally her own fists, “You know you have hidden blades?” I spat killing another before stabbing one that came after Arya in the head and slicing one’s head off she smirked wiping a stray of blood from her lip, “It’s more fun like this!” as she punched another and retrieving her sword she caught it before killing the next one as I stabbed the nearest and kicked it into the next corpse and lifting the sword up slammed it into the ground causing it to fragment and **** other guards down through the gap and smiling Brienne with a thrust forward cause a beam of light to shoot out and **** others to fall off the edge and Arya stabbing the next with her knife spoke, “How long are they going to take?” I killed the next before saying, “Surely they can’t be much longer!” and killing the next continued on fighting.

“Is there any more?” Brienne asked already knowing the answer and sheathing her sword spoke, “Did anyone keep count?” Brienne shrugged causing Arya to glumly look down and say, “You two kill way more than me!” causing me to say, “So it’s a tie? Now what do I use my three wishes on!” and winking at Brienne she just sighed before commenting, “Can we keep to the task on hand?” “Absolutely!” and walking back in there we saw Meera and Bran sit there waiting, “Isu warrior did good! Very good, beware of the one that watches!” I rolled puffed my cheeks before saying, “Does he have an off switch?” “He has bands of prophecies like this!” “So how paralysed is he?” “Waist and a bit down!” I nodded before saying, “So he can use his arms?” Meera nodded causing me to say, “Right! he can ride with me!” Meera nodded before hoisting him onto my horse grabbed a piece of cloth and stuck it in his mouth, mounted the horse, “Right lets ride!” I helped Arya up to her horse started to trot back down to the hill, “So what happened to Three-Eyed?” “He saw Cersei and Jamie having sex but of course being related it must be hush hush so he threw him out of the window!” I tried to keep a straight face before saying, “So Three eyed?” “Last Greensayer who can tell the future!” I nodded before saying, “We kept our end of the bargain now Meera you owe us a conversation!” she nodded before saying, “Well speak...Bran knows why you are here but Bran makes no sense!” this caused me to say, “Have you ever thought that he isn’t Bran anymore? Maybe you should just accept it?” she sighed before nodding lightly spoke, “What do you want?” “Three things actually, provisions so we can go further north to see Jon, secondly you have a type of key that we need to unlock a cabinet, everyone does and finally a warning!” Bran nodded causing her to say, “He kept telling me about this? End of the world? Wars being fought?” I shook my head before saying, “Not exactly worlds will crumble, hopefully that means the kingdom’s will crumble, wars will be thought and me and Brienne must be ready! Now apparently I am meant to ignore Sansa and to save an Isu member! So what next? Meant to get someone pregnant or I have to tame a wolf or something?” Arya laughed before saying, “Probably have to impregnate this “Isu” member” I laughed before smiling at Brienne before saying, “Brienne will have to fight a bear” “Already done that!” she spoke and leaning over said, “Why doesn’t that surprise me!” she smirked before saying, “You act impressed where I am just like this is normal” and joking I said, “You are apparently the only one I can trust!” she laughed before riding into the town Arya spoke, “What about me?” and shrugging I said, “Stranger danger obviously!” “I suppose they automatically assume that you would trust her because she is already with you!” I nodded before saying, “I think the first round of drinks are on raven here, who agrees?” and nodding Brienne spoke, “About time he became useful” and hoping off my house I picked this supposed Fortune Teller up and carried him with the others into the tavern.
