Disclaimer: I don't own Game of Thrones
Hey guys, so I recently got into the Game of Thrones fandom and this is just a random oneshot that came into my mind, and is based on Once Upon A Time so yeah tell me what you think
Edit: Made a few changes to reflect the newest season
She was tired...
Tired of fighting in a war that would never end. Even if someone had managed to win the war and gain the throne, who was to say it would stop there? Who was to say they'd back down, and let everything return to the peaceful times that were now a mere memory. No...as long as there were kings there would always be those trying to kill them. So why keep going?...she was trapped and would never see her family again. She had regretted not taking that offer, but it was much too late...Winterfell was her home, but it didn't feel like her home anymore. Not after everything that had happened, it was now just a fortress... with only the lingering memories of her family. Her father was dead...her mother was dead...her brothers were dead...and she didn't know anything of Arya...there was no hope left in Sansa Stark's heart..there was nothing but cold, dark, emptiness...and now she was pregnant.
The red haired girl sat by the window and looked down at the ground the moon shining down on her...she was done with this world and all of the people in it so why not join her family? She placed her hands on her stomach and closed her eyes prepared to jump. When she felt someone's hand on her shoulder. She looked back, and her eyes went wide with shock at the sight of the old crone before her.
" Who are you?" Asked Sansa.
"I come from beyond the wall...milady." Said the hag, Sansa shook her head and glared at her.
"Impossible, nothing comes from beyond the wall...who are you?" She asked, determination in her voice.
"A fellow traveler down the road of pain and suffering...you've been hurt and betrayed by those you most trusted and made mistakes that cost you dearly. Having lost everything and gained nothing but a ring on your finger and a child growing inside of you." Said the hag, and tears pooled in Sansa's eyes at the reality of this. She sniffed and nodded.
" I just want my life back...I want my family back...I don't want to bring my child into this world if it means losing them as well." Said Sansa weakly, she didn't know who this hag was..didn't know if it was some other godforsaken ploy of the Boltons to kill her once and for all but as of now she didn't care...not anymore.
" What if I were to tell you that there was a way?" Asked the Old Crone, Sansa looked at her curiously with bloodhsot eyes now she really wanted to know who this old woman was and what she was talking about...more importantly, where had she come from. The woman's hair was snow white, and her eyes an icy blue going graciously with her pale skin which was covered in age spots and wrinkles. A sweeping black cloak hiding the rest of her save for her gnarled, old wrinkly hands. "There exists a land beyond this one...a land where you and your child can be safe."
Sansa's jaw went slack as she looked on wondering if this was true...but what if this was a trap? After all, Cersei had made her believe in her..and that had turned out terribly. However, there was something inside of her telling her to believe the woman...to put her faith and trust in her, and slowly the hope she believed to have long since died began to resurface. What if it was possible? what if there was another world? She was conflicted, on the one hand how was she to know this old hag could be trusted? What if it was a lie? What if it was real? what if she was free? Her hand made its way to her growing stomach.
" Will I still remember this world?" Asked Sansa, trying not to let her hopefulness show.
" No, that is the price you must pay...everyone must pay a price in exchange for your freedom you will have to sever ties with this world and lose your memories." Said the crone, the teenage girl took in a deep intake of breath and sighed the tears threatning to fall down her cheeks. It pained her to know she'd forget those she loved, but the memories were too painful now..much too painful.
" I accept..as long as my baby and I are safe..that's all that matters.." She replied, gasping as a purple smoke engulfed her she screamed as her memories began to slip away and everything became cold and dark. Sansa groaned, and looked up, at the radiant night sky and finding nothing but inky blackness with nothing but stars. She groaned and stood up, making her way towards a small grassy hill and gasping in wonder at the sea of lights below with tall buildings. She smiled softly, and placed her hand upon her stomach.
13 years later
" San, time to wake up." Whispered a male voice in her eat, Sansa giggled and nesteled in deeper into the covers. Squealing with laughter as her husband gently poked her sides. She opened one eye and smiled at the sight of his chocolate brown eyes staring back at her with love and adoration.
" Morning love." He whispered kissing her forehead.
" Morning, " She replied, as she ran a hand through his dark brown hair and kissed his lips they were interrupted by a ringtone. Sansa sighed and laid back down as Daniel went to go answer his mobile. She shook her head and sighed as she got up and began to put her hair up into a messy bun before putting on her makeup. Sansa lived an ordinary life with her husband and children in Manchester. A life she was perfectly happy with, despite her rough start...she'd been found pregnant and wandering around by herself on the cold streets with nothing but her name and a baby in her womb.
She had no recollection of her family..whoever they were, had they given her up because she'd gotten pregnant at a young age? What were they like?
" Sorry about that, just James calling to see if I've turned in that file already." He replied kissing her cheek.
" Did you?" Asked Sansa curiously.
" Yeah, hey I have to run early so I'm just going to get some toast and un." He replied, Sansa sighed as she looked at him.
" Can that wait? You've been going in early and coming late this entire week I miss my husband." Said Sansa with a small pout, he chuckled and kissed his wife's lips.
" I know but I promise tonight I'm going to make it up to you." Said Daniel before getting dressed, he kissed her cheek and headed out the door when Sansa noticed the briefcase on the chair. She rolled her eyes affectionately and went to the living room where Daniel was frantically searching for it. Only to pause and smile sheepishly as his wife held it in her hand.
"Thanks love, I'll be back soon." Said Daniel, kissing her and heading out to the car. Sansa closed the door, and went to go wake up the children to get them ready for school. She went to her thirteen ear old son's room and knocked on the door.
" Brendan, time for school." Said Sansa gently, the thirteen year old groaned and shook his head. She sighed once again and crossed over to his room gently shaking him up when the doorbell rang. Assuming her husband had forgetten something Sansa went to the door and opened it to find a man in armor with scruffy black hair.
" Who're you?" Asked Sansa in shock.
" Jon Snow, your brother."
