The Guardian of the North (Robb Stark) Completed

The Hound

"I shouldn't be alive, unless it was for a reason." -Tony Stark, Iron man.

"Arya?!" Robb yelled as he ran through the camp, searching for his sister. A lot of his men stood dumbfounded as their King ran past them. Robb didn't care though, he only cared about seeing his sister again.

Elena ran after him. Her heart was beating faster than it had ever done, was Arya okay? Was she hurt? Elena didn't say a word.

"Arya!" Robb yelled again, turning around in a circle. He couldn't find her, had Gillian lied only to wake him up? Even though he knew Gillian to be somewhat of a trouble maker, he knew that this went too far even for him. 

"I'm here." Arya said silently. She was being helt back by the Hound when they stepped out of a tent.

"Arya!" Robb took a few quick steps towards her only to be helt back by the Hound. Anger and confusion flashed on Robb's face as he looked at his disformed face.

"Not so fast boy." He put a knife against Arya's throat yet she didn't look scared at all. "I want my money." The hound said. Robb took a deep breath to try and control his anger.

"Money?! You should be happy when we let your live after you just put a knife against my sister's throat!" Robb's voice became louder and louder with each word he spoke. He hadn't seen Arya in ages, he would wonder if she was okay every day. Now here she finally is and then someone puts a knife against her throat.

"Robb." Elena sighed. She knew the Hound wasn't a man of honor, he left the city he fought for during a siege and now he transports people to places for money. "Just do as he says..." Elena didn't want to put Arya in danger.

"Elena?" Arya's eyes widened when she saw the guardian standing behind her brother, alive and well. She had received a letter in King's Landing from Winterfell a year ago. It said that Elena had died yet here she stands.

"Shut up." The Hound barked in Arya's ear. "I want my money."

"How much do you want?" Robb growled.

"How much is your sister's life worth to you?" The Hound smirked. Elena and Robb both knew that the Hound wanted a large amount of money. They had no choice but to give him that.

"Get the money." Robb told his sguire, who ran off immediatelly. Robb took a hold of Elena's hand when she stepped closer to the Hound and Arya. "Don't." Robb simply ordered her to stay.

Elena looked down at her hand intertwined with Robb's. His hold was strong and almost painfull. It reminded her of something that happened years ago.

"So you hold it like this." Elena demonstrated the grip on a sword, explaining Arya how to wield it. Arya was more than interested, she had wanted to fight her whole life. When she found out that her father had taken in another woman, a warrior to be exact, Arya was more than thrilled.

Elena had only been in Winterfell for a few weeks, her muscles were still sore from the fight with Robb. They hadn't spoken to each other. Elena didn't mind that at all. They had avoided each other at all costs. For breakfast Elena would eat alone in her chamber, Lord Stark told her that after a while she would be welcome to come eat with the family.

As much as Elena wanted company, she didn't think that would be a great idea. Eating breakfast and dinner around the same table as Robb, the man who had almost killed her, didn't sound as such a smart idea.

She had spoken with Eddard Stark after he stopped his son from killing her. He told her that he knew who she was and what she could do. Elena was afraid at first, afraid he would use her powers.
