Chapter 4

What Happens Next?

Beaten and Abused

Arya is hauled down to the dungeons by the 5 guards. She has been stripped of her belt, which held a knife, which they found and tossed away.

The 5 of them take her into a cell, 1 stays on the outside to lock and secure the door. Arya is thrown to the ground, surrounded by 4 men in full plate mail armor. She attempts to plea, "Please, I'm sorry."

One of the guards says "Should have thought before spitting in the queen's face." He reels back his leg and punts Arya in the ribs, "Because now she is pissed, and if we don't throughly best your ass, she will have us flogged." Arya clutches her ribs with one hand, coughing. One of the guards stomps on the fingers of her other hand, she sits up and tucks her hand to her stomach.

One of the guards grabs her by the shoulders of her shirt and rips it down the front, exposing her breasts and stomach. Arya tries to cover her chest with her hands, but one of the guards comes from behind, grabbing both her wrists and holding her hands above her head.

He pulls her up to her feet in the process, another guard walks up to Arya. She lashes out her leg to kick him in the groin, but strikes nothing but metal. He smirks, and punches her in the stomach. As she gasps, he punches her again, and again, then buries his fist into her right breast. She cries out in pain.

Another guard steps up, he backhands Arya across the cheek, then forehand slaps the other. He grabs her by the hair and looks into her eyes, "Do you want to spit on me too?" He slaps her again, right in the mouth.
