Arya's POV

I wake up early the next morning and the door of my cell creek open. I roll over on the cot and sit up.

Pamela walks to the cell and claps another file folder down on the table. "I don't want to be here longer than I have to, so give me your name." Her expression is hard and unforgiving, I smirk.

"Well, that's forward don't you think." I prop myself up with my arm.

She rolls her eyes, "I don't mind waiting, but you should know Daniel is the nicer one between the two of us."

"Oh, I'm aware." I sneer, "that's probably why you were too afraid to let him back in here."

She shrugs "I'm not really afraid of anything, we just decided it would be best if we switched cases.". She stands up in an attempt to intimidate me.

"Because you're too weak to take that 19-year-old girl" I nod to the wall. "And he's too naive to not play himself into my hands?" I know these are only half truths, but I am pushing buttons and trying to see which one makes her mad. Cracking her neck he walks over to me with purpose, I try to hide the smile that plays across my lips, but this was just too amusing. When she reaches my cot, she raises her hand to punch me and stops. A noise from the other room sounds, an unidentified thump, and something crashing to the ground.

I can see worry cloud her face and find the perfect opening. She turns her head and looks at the direction of the noise and I take my chance. I lunge off the cot and wrap my arm around her neck and we both slam down hard on the ground. She lands beneath me out of breath, but quickly gets her wits about her. She begins to get up, but I shove her back down.

I curl my fist around her neck and hold her down. "Are you going to ask your boyfriend to save you?'' I taunt. And I smirk. "I guess now we know you can't take down either of the 19 year old girls."

"So you are nineteen ?" She gasps and brings her knee to my stomach hard.

I cuss and gasp from having the air knocked out of me. Pamala then flips and trades our  positions. " I don't need to be saved"

"That's debatable." I say strained. I Twist around and catch her hand in my teeth and bite down hard. I taste the iron flavor of her blood and the warm liquid flooding my mouth.

"You little..." she cusses colorfully and brings  her fist down hard on my face. I feel my nose rebreak and my head snaps back. I feel her stand but the black dots in my vision keep me from being able to make out anything. She holds me up by my collar and my neck falls back, my head unable to look up.  I feel her bring her knee into my ribs and I gasp.

She grabs my hair in a fist bringing her face close to mine. "I will ask you again, what is your name?"

I smile weekly and blood drips off my lips. "You'll have to kill to get anything out." I gasp for air.

Another strange sound is heard from the room next to us distracting her again for a moment.

I bring my foot up and place it on her chest, I pry myself from her grip and fall back awards onto the floor. She sighs for a moment, and then walks towards me. "Look I don't want to hurt you anymore so lets make this easy on both of us"

"I think you're a little late for that." I say and push myself up off the floor. I bruise and feel like it's forming under my eyes, my lip is cut and swelling and blood drips from my mouth. I sit up and fix my nose which results in a stream of blood now trickling out of it as well.

"Okay" she sighs impatiently, "I'll be right back".

"Take your time." I growl back.

She leaves the room and the metal door clicks shut. I stan Shakely and walk across the room to see if I can hear the conversation going on in the cell over. It Must be 5872's holding cell if there's that much ruckus going on. I slide down the wall and press my ear to the cold metal.
