Dark Vengeance

My life isn't the best, it hasn't started the best, nor the happiest. I watched my sweet innocent mother be raped and executed by vile mercenaries, everyday and every night it has plagued my mind like a vicious disease. The five mercenaries have been on my list for over nine years, but I have never seen any since. I don't want them to die. I want the sweet delicious pleasure myself. To stick my dagger into their intestines and twist and twist. Keep them tied up and let their own waste kill them. Waste them in agony.

Then they will know the pain my mother went through. I will scour the entire seven kingdoms if I have to. Nothing will stand in my way, if I have to climb the Wall bare handed so be it. Cross the narrow sea and fight in the pits of Meeren so be it, I will discard my own earthly possessions just to get my hands and grasp their throats.

I looked across the room of the tavern I was in, and there was one of them. Enjoying a plate of Chicken legs and brown Ale, shouting and grabbing the bar wench. Trying to bring Her closer so He could rip her dress and stick his little finger in Her. He had aged a bit older since I saw him that day. Time wasn't fortunate with him the grey hair started to appear around his sideburns and back of his head, he started to bold at the front leaving curves to the center of his fringe.

His beard had chicken pieces and crumbs in from previous meals, he ate like a slob and he won't get any treatment better than a slob. No mercy, just cold hard vengeance.

I got up from my seat, necked my ale and slowly walked over to him, I didn't care for the people in front of me. They looked into my eyes and moved immediately as they saw I was not a Man to be trifled with. I dropped a silver bit next to a drunk and took his cup, I was within three steps of him, he didn't notice me. I grasped the cup harder and slammed it into the side of his head. The bar wench ran away as he fell backwards, he looked up at me while I pulled my steel knife out of its scabbard and plunged it into his shoulder and twisted.

He let out a screech of pain as he looked petrified, he tried to crawl away, but I threw the table out of the way and grabbed his foot. He tried to kick my hand to get free. But it made me squeeze harder. I grabbed his inner leg with my other hand and pulled Him out of the corner of the room and threw him into the centre of the room as he crashed through a table.

"DO YOU REMEMBER ME, BASTARD!" I yelled at him as I pressed my foot against his shoulder.

He screamed out in pain. "No, whatever money I owe. Just take my Horse please, I have Children." He pleaded with fake innocence in his eyes as he lied about his Children.

"I was Fourteen at the time, you and your Mercenaries. Raided my village, pillaged the entire land. You raped my Mother, you slit her throat in front of me. Then proceeded to stab her lifeless body as you laughed. You and your men kicked the seven hells out of me, without the aid of travelers I would of died. But now it will be you who dies, I will make sure you never see your 'Children' YOU MONSTER!" I explained and released my fury as i started to kick him in the rib and face.

"GET UP AND FIGHT ME, BASTARD!" I yelled even more. "YOU RAPED HER, YOU TORTURED HER, YOU POURED HER LIFE FROM HER THROAT, YOU MADE ME WATCH!"

"Please, I'm sorry!" He shouted in agony as he curled in a ball for defense.

I stopped kicking and looked at the beaten Monster. "Then you can say that to the old gods, they always like to judge a hung man."

"Please no." He pleaded and tried to squirm away.

"That was my Mother last words until you carved her throat open like a hog on a spit." Why should I show mercy when you showed none, I am just returning the favor." I said sadistically as i grabbed him by the feet and dragged him to the door.

I pulled out a gold bit and threw it the bar wench and apologized. "I'm sorry for the damages. For your discretion."

I dragged him to the nearest tree, and threw him the rope. "Tie it." I grunted. "A man should make his own demise."

"I'm sorry for what I did, all those years ago." He tried to apologize but all I saw was fear, no apologetic look.

"I can tell when someone lies or tells the truth, and you are lying. Tie it now or I will make it a more painful death and I will start with the toes!" I replied with in a aggressive tone.

"I won't seal my own life, do it yourself." He exclaimed in vain.

"Fine by me, I get the pleasure of sealing your fate." I finally said as those were the last words he would ever here.

I pulled out my Steel one handed sword from its scabbard, and aimed it at his knee. I rose it up in the air and swung down, severing his leg in two. He screamed in agony as blood splattered out. I placed the sword over his next knee, raised it into the air and swung it down dissecting his lower leg. He started to scream even louder and then blacked out, he had a good one or two minutes left of his life.

I tied the rope around his neck and threw it over a thick branch and pulled until he was near the branch and tied it to a nearby well. I opened my bag and pulled out a sign a made the previous night and nailed it to the tree.

'This is what happens to rapists.'

I did my bag up again and headed off, ticking off one mercenary from the list of five. One down four to go until my mother is avenged.

"You know this wouldn't of happened if you just let us go that day, this is your own fault. You have paid the price of rape, barbaric murder and torture." I said aloud as I walked away from the tree.

May the Gods judge you now.

Next stop Kings Landing, time to bring justice to the world.
