Mizeloph's Tale Chapter 4

Pairing - In the beginning it will be General Kirigan x OC Sun Summoner then switch to Kaz Brekker x OC Sun Summoner

Summary - Anna has a lot to learn in a very short period, there is nothing like almost being killed to appreciate life. Only nature can understand the pull a Sun and Shadow Summoner have for one another.

A sudden jerk of the coach woke Anna up, she looked around noticing that the sun had risen and that the coach had come to a stop. She looked at Ivan and Fedyor, seeing that they had  worried looks across their faces. Ivan was talking to one of the soldiers about something but Anna was still a bit groggy from just waking up.

“What is going on?” Anna asked while looking around

Fedyor looked over at Anna smiled a little “well good morning sleeping sunshine, it seems like there is a roadblock, it could be a ploy for an ambush, so be careful, I am going to go check on it with Ivan, do not leave this coach unless it is with a Grisha or Oprichniki”

Fedyor stepped out of the coach, closed the door, then followed Ivan to help in any way that he could. As they were trying to see if anyone was out there, someone yelled ‘Fjerdan!’. It had been an ambush after all, Drüskelle swarmed the Oprichniki and Grisha catching them off guard. From the coach Anna could hear yelling and the sound of weapons clashing. Anna ducked in the coach as she barely missed being hit by a bullet that flew through the window she had just been looking out of. She tried to stay close to the ground but a gas grenade was thrown under the coach, a thick gas was let out making Anna cough. As she made her way out of the coach to try and get away from the thick gas she was grabbed by a Drüskelle.

“Grisha!” the man yelled at her with his thick Fjerdan accent, he dragged her away from the fight then held her down

“No! Please let me go! I am not Grisha! Please I am just a map maker! Let me go!” she tried fighting with the man on top of her

“What you are is a witch, now die!” the man said as he went to raise his axe to kill Anna

Darkness, but to Anna it felt different, very familiar and almost comforting. General Kirigan had arrived along with his following shadows. The Drüskelle on top of Anna turned around still holding the axe above his head realizing that this is where he would die instead of Anna.

“Darkling” was the man's last Fjerdan word as he watched General Kirigan create the Cut and then thrust it at the man splitting him in half

Anna gasped as she watched the man above her be sliced in two then fall off of her, General Kirigan walked up to Anna and held his hand out to her “are you hurt?”

“No..” she took his hand and got up “I’m not hurt.. Just a little bit shaken by what just happened” that same feeling of comfort she felt in his tent earlier washed over her, it was strange to feel this way with General Kirigan, only a few moments ago Anna thought she was going to die but now those worries had been pushed down

“The others will have fled by now, they should know that I am here. Everyone else will continue on but you will ride with me to the Little Palace” General Kirigan brought Anna to his horse

They got onto his horse and started their ride to the Little Palace, there was a long journey ahead of them. Anna continued to think about what had just happened, she was attacked and almost killed. She knew that with General Kirigan she was safe, but Anna wondered about the deeper feeling she felt in his tent and just now. Riding together was their first close interaction and she felt like there was an even stronger natural pull. Anna tried thinking reasonably, if she was the Sun Summoner then she was the natural opposite of him, the Shadow Summoner. Eventually it was decided they would take a small break, the horse had been going for a while and they had put a lot of distance between them and where the attack had happened.

As Anna stretched glad to be standing for a little bit, General Kirigan held out a handkerchief, she looked at him with a confused look “for your face” he gestured to the blood on her face from the Fjerdan that had almost killed

“Thank you” she took the handkerchief and whipped her face “Never in my entire life have I felt like I was going to die, until today. Even in Ketterdam I knew how to survive.. But today was something else”

General Kirigan watched her “I am glad I got there in time, I couldn’t imagine.. Not being able to save you”

“About you saving me, you cut that man in half with a shadow. I am thankful that you saved me.. But it was also a little bit scary to see” Anna was seeing and learning so many new things today and that was some of the terrifying aspects of her new life

“Would you rather I have used a sword?” General Kirigan asked looking at her curiously

“Oh.. uh I don’t know, it was just something I was not expecting” she said looking down feeling bad for what she had said

General Kirigan stepped closer to her and lifted her chin up with his hand for her to look at him “it is alright, I understand that this is new and scary, but know that I will always be ready to protect you” he let go of her chin and Anna continued to keep eye contact with him. She looked up at him, their height difference a bit more obvious, she had only stood this close to him once and that was when he cut her arm. She wondered if General Kirigan felt the same comfort and natural pull that she felt. Anna wasn’t planning on bringing it up, but it was something that she was thinking about, maybe a bit too much.

Anna knew that there was still more to being Grisha than what she knew, her conversation earlier with Fedyor was helpful in understanding “I do want to learn more though, after all this is starting to becoming my life”

“Well, we can start small, think of how there is matter to everything, in air and shadow, but it is too small to see, does that make sense?” he asked her wanting to make sure that she understood what he was explaining

“Yeah that makes sense” Anna appreciated him taking the time to make sure everything made sense to her

“For example, The Cut is something a Summoner can do, but it requires tremendous skill and I try to use it in a last resort situation”

“Last resort like that ambush.. ” Anna wondered how often this happened, an ambush on Grisha “how did they even know about me? It has barley been a day since everything happened”

“Well your little light show from the Fold was visible from miles away, they must have been on some other mission and abandoned that to come and find you” General Kirigan knew that there was a chance of this happening “this is why I wanted you to leave Kirbisk right away, and since you were attacked like I feared, it is better that you travel with me until we arrive to the Little Palace”

“They are really that scared of you?” Anna knew that General Kirigan could be scary, but for skilled enemies to not want to attempt anything while he was around really spoke volumes to her

“I think that they are more scared of you” He reasoned, this was not what Anna was expecting him to say, she was no threat. She had no training with her powers, the only reason she was able to do something in the Fold was by pure unknown instinct.

“Why? I have no control over whatever I am and you can cut people in half from many paces away. What damage could I do?” Anna wanted to understand since this would impact her life

“Miss Mizeloph, your power means a lot to the people of Ravka, you could be the first of your kind, we have always had a name for you. You have the potential to do so much, the people hope for what you can do, when you eventually enter the Fold and destroy it from within. With the proper training and some amplifiers..” General Kirigan went to keep talking but Anna stopped him

“Wait..” this was becoming very overwhelming for Anna. “I haven’t even been Grisha for a day and I feel like my destiny is already being set up for me without my control.. I mean, I am trying to take this in strides and accept who I am becoming, but there is so much more. I was just dragged away from my friends, I never asked for any of this... I mean I was always a freak, an outsider, but this is just just so much…” Anna played with a strand of her white hair that was kept out of the pony tail, it had always been a symbol of her being different, something she could never change

“Miss Mizeloph you are no freak, you are Grisha, no matter what, there will be other Grisha with you along with myself to help you every step of the way. This might seem like a lot, but you will have so many others to help you along the way to taking down the Fold” General Kirigan held her hand in a sense of comfort wanted to make sure that Anna knew she was not alone, they where two sides of the same coin, they would always have each other.

They got onto the horse and rode to the Little Palace, this would be the day when Anna Mizelophs life changed forever. She would not be the map maker she had continued to convince herself that she was. A Sun Summoner, maybe she still had one more step to prove that is who she was, but starting this day as she passed through the walls of the Little Palace she would become something new.

Anna groaned, opening her eyes trying to figure out what was going on. One moment she had been in complete darkness and now she had a Healer kneeling over her. She tried to look over where she last remembered seeing Mal and Alina, she gasped in pain as the Healer continued to work on her.

“Hold on, your collarbone is fractured” she said and worked to heal her collarbone and anything else that Anna needed done

“Wait, Mal.. Alina.. One is a tracker and the other is a map maker, where are they?..” she struggled to speak

“First army goes to medical now please try to stay still” the Healer said and continued to look for anything else that might be broken

Zoya approached them “we have to bring her to General Kirigan’s tent”

“I am not done healing her” the Healer countered

“You can go with her, General Kirigan needs to see her now” Zoya said

The Healier finished making sure that Anna felt comfortable then she was taken to General Kirigans tent. Anna was still slightly out of it, she felt like she had been drained of all of her energy. As she approached the black tent with the guards holding her arms she was amazed by what she saw inside but was also scared. All of this had to be a mistake, she shouldn’t be here, after all she was just a map maker who only had a few years of combat training under her belt.

General Kirigan turned around from looking at the map on the table “what are you?”

“Um.. I am a map maker sir, that's all”

The Grisha in the tent giggled at her response, Anna felt self conscious about her answer but she was telling the truth “Quiet” General Kirigan commanded, everyone stopped laughing “so what actually happened? Zoya? You manned the main sail” he looked over to her

“We were attacked barley two marks in, someone lit a lantern” Zoya replayed the events out loud and in her mind

“And?” General Kirigan asked

“It was her” Zoya answered, point to Anna “she created the light that killed the swarming volcra”

“Our mapmaker.. Is it true? Can you summon light? Where did you grow up?” he looked back over at Anna, with every piece seeming to fall into place, this girl seemed to be at the center of it all

“I don’t remember having a family, I spent a lot of time on the streets of Ketterdam trying to survive, but when I was around 10 Duke Keramsov took me back to his orphanage across the Fold” Anna had never talked much about her childhood, but here she was telling a stranger

“Hmm, and when were you tested?” General Kirigan knew that she had not been tested before, but he wanted to know why from her

“Well, when I was brought over I was past the age of when they would normally test children so on testing day I would be shoved away into a room where they would lock me in there until the testers left” Anna knew that didn’t sound good, but it was the truth and honestly she was glad because then she would not be separated from her friends.

General Kirigan nodded, he was angry about the treatment Anna had when Grisha testers came to the orphanage she had grown up in, but he would fix their mistakes now “If you have never been tested, let us just make certain” he walked up to her taking his claw ring off his pinking and onto his thumb “roll up your sleeve” he summoned shadow into the tent

She rolled her sleeve up, there was nothing she would have to be nervous about. In the moment, she didn’t feel scared, it was as if General Kirigan made her feel less afraid with his presence. Anna had only felt something like this once but, that had been a long time ago when she had a certain boy at her side until he had disappeared. He pulled her sleeve up just a little bit more and used his claw ring to cut her arm and from that wound a burst of pure light came out lighting up the tent and going through the top, everyone in the camp would be able to see. Anna could not believe what she was seeing, pure sunlight was coming out from her arm. General Kirigan smiled at her, seeing the amazement in her eyes, after a bit longer he closed off the cut which stopped the light from coming.

“Ivan” General Kirigan called for him “take her to my coach, I want as many armed guards with her at all times until she is safe behind the walls of the Little Palace”

“Yes sir” Ivan called a few guards over and they ushered Anna out of the tent and towards General Kerrigan's coach.

“Wait, I want to see my friends before I leave, please!” Anna had not seen them since everything went down inside the Fold, they had been taken to medical already by the time she woke up

“No, we have to get you to the Little Palace right now, the sun is beginning to set and there is no doubt every enemy who knows of your existence will be after you now” Ivan kept trying to get Anna to the coach, but she kept trying to fight them

As they approached the coach there was a Healer standing there where he went to make sure Anna was completely healed and took care of the cut on her arm. The Healer then took off his Kefta and gave it to her, she didn’t take it right away but he insisted. It would keep her safe during her journey to the Little Palace.

“Please I just want to make sure my friends are alright” Anna pleaded one more time before they left

“Like I have said, we need to leave now, we must start our journey, we can’t waste a moment. You don’t understand that by now every Shu Han assassin and Fjerdan spy will be after you” with the sun beginning to set in the west and to avoid any danger they would have to leave now while they had some natural cover

Anna knew that she could not fight Ivan and the guards off forever and was about to get into the coach when she saw Mal and Alina trying to make their way over to her “Mal! Alina!” she stepped down and went to run to them but was stopped by another Heartrender

“Miss Mizeloph we have to leave now” Fedyor commanded holding onto her arm

“Anna!” They yelled trying to get closer but where stopped by guards

“Please I need them” she was exhausted, this day had been very draining for her and just a few minutes with her friends would mean the world to her

“I am sorry but you cannot, we must leave now” Fedyor with the help of Ivan were finally able to get Anna into the coach

Once she was shoved into the coach and it started to move, Anna found the back window and pulled the curtains back. She yelled to her friends as she saw them trying to get past the guards to catch up, but there was no way possible for them to get close as the coach left. Once they got farther away from Kribirsk Anna sat down and looked at the two Heartrenders. She sighed and held the Kefta close to herself, so much was running through her mind. Only moments ago she was just another map maker, to now discover she was the legendary Sun Summoner. As the coach continued to move, Anna looked out the window to see the rising moon in the sky, lanterns had been lit to be able to see where they were going.

“So.. I know you are Ivan, who are you?” Anna looked back at the other Heartrender

“My name is Fedyor, and I am sorry about earlier, but we had needed to leave, it is dangerous for you now out in the open and we could not waste a moment to get you to Os Alta behind the walls of the Little Palace”

“Yeah.. I just, this isn’t normal, people coming after me like this. Even in Ketterdam I was never really sought after” Anna went back to looking out the window

“Well they will, if you are truly the Sun Summoner you are the key to taking down the Fold and the Fjerdan and Shu Han will make sure that they will give it their all to make sure that does not happen” Ivan said while looking out the window

“You are after all a hope to our country, it was Grisha who created the Fold and if one can destroy it then maybe.. We could finally be free of its burden, we would no longer be hunted because of who we are'' Anna looked at Fedyor once he was done talking to see that he had a small smile on his face, for him there was hope

Anna looked between the two men and knew that there was so much more to being a Grisha that she did not understand. Just yesterday she had been complaining about how the Grisha at Kirbisk wanted more space to train. However, they had not always had those luxuries, they had once been hunted and in reality they wanted to be treated like others. Grisha could practice the small science at their will, there should be no reason for them to be called witches and hunted until they are all dead. Now that Anna was Grisha she feared that she would now be hunted, always with a pair of eyes over her shoulder to try and survive. She sighed and realized that this would be a long journey, it would be a good idea to get some shut eye before her life changed forever at the Little Palace. Anna closed her eyes and was able to fall asleep pretty quickly, she had started to feel safe with Ivan and Fedyor, knowing they would protect her.
