Arya still has her list of people who she wants to kill to completely fill out and i think she might join Daenerys after that. Unlikely she will fit into Winterfell with her sister as her soul will be too restless after all she's gone through. I doubt it even Sansa will stay at Winterfell. And i think Littlefinger will come to die one way or another (most likely brutal). Maybe even by the hand of Sansa. Bran will return to Winterfell because he's already at the Wall. The Night King's "mark on Bran's arm may not be a terrific factor in the White Walker's invasion, because they already demonstrated, back in the First Season, that wights can operate south of the Wall when one of them tried to kill Jon Snow, who burnt it when he hurled a lantern at the creature. In short: they can get through the Wall anyway! Bran is the only truly supernatural human in the whole series, and they wouldn't have developed him to this point, so that they would kill him off for no reason in Season 7. Waste of a good character. Waste of a good plot.

True but they could kill Bran and Night King could then turn him into White Walker. The same thing would apply to Jon, being killed and turned into a White Walker.

Arya won't return to Winterfell not yet anyway - Cersei and Gregor need to die first, I still think that only after they both are dead she might head North and kill her sister, for all the trouble she caused to her and their family by being "so in love" with Joffrey. That would actually be the bittersweet ending that one could foresee.
