Chapter Seven
Vaes Dothrak
Naruto rode next to Daenerys, Jorah and Viserys as they approached the only Dothraki city.
"Vaes Dothrak. The city of Horselords."
Viserys scoffed. "A pile of mud. Mud and shit and twigs. Best these savages can do."
Daenerys glared at her brother.
"These are my people now. You shouldn't call them savages."
Naruto nodded approvingly as Viserys glared at the Khaleesi.
"I'll call them what I like, because they're my people. This is my army. Khal Drogo is marching the wrong way with my army."
"Well even if that's true you should still hold your tongue. It'd be ashame if someone was tipped off on how you talk about them."
Viserys grumbled and rode ahead and entered the city as Daenerys looked at Naruto.
"If my brother was given an army of Dothraki, could he conquer the Seven Kingdoms?"
Naruto shrugged. "The Dothraki have never crossed the Narrow Sea. They fear any water their horses can't drink."
"But of they did?"
The Assassin rubbed his chin as he thought before he replied.
"Robert Baratheon is hotheaded and quick to violence. He is foolish enough to meet the Dothraki in open battle. That would get thousands of men slaughtered. But the men advising him are different. They'd have him hide in castles and the Dothraki aren't built to lay siege."
"Do you know these men?"
"No but Jorah may."
Daenerys turned to Jorah who nodded.
"I fought beside them once, long ago. Now Ned Stark wants my head. He drove me from my land."
"You sold slaves."
"Aye?"
"Why?"
The knight looked at Naruto before sighing.
"I had no money and an expensive wife."
"And where is she now?"
Jorah looked solemn as he answered Naruto's question.
"In another place, with another man."
Naruto stayed silent as they rode into the city. He heard a screech and looked up to see a eagle flying overhead.
"I'll be back."
Before anyone could say anything Naruto took off into the city leaving them behind.
The assassin rode for a few minutes before he spotted the eagle perched in a tree with a message tied around its foot.
The Assassin removed the note from the bird and softly rubbed his head as he stared at the blank piece of paper. His eyes glowed slightly as he activated his eagle vision and revealed a secret message.
The King has ordered the death of the Targaryen girl. He believes her to be with child.
Naruto's eyes widened as he jumped back on to his horse and took off into his previous direction. As he rode his mind raced. As far as he knew the news of Daenerys's pregnancy had yet to leave the company of the Khalasar. Which meant that either Jorah or Viserys tipped someone off and he knew damn well that Viserys couldn't make contact with anyone in Westeros so that left only one suspect.
The assassin rode through the city and spotted a head of silvery blonde hair but snarled when he saw the former lord of Bear Island next to her.
"Jorah do you mind if I speak to you in private?"
The knight looked at Naruto in surprise but nodded before following Naruto into a nearby alley. Daenerys gave Naruto a puzzling look but her handmaidens continued to escort her through the city.
"Naruto what can I do for-"
The Knight was cut off as Naruto punched him in the face making him fall to the ground.
"What is the meaning of th-"
He was once again cut off as the assassin kicked him hard in the stomach.
"Now I'm gonna talk and your gonna listen."
Naruto drew Kuruma and Jorah's eyes locked and to the the ruby orbs of the blade.
"What are you doing Naruto?"
"I told Daenerys that I would protect her. And despite my best judgment I thought we were on the same page but now realize that I was wrong."
"What ar-"
"Don't play dumb with me!"
Jorah looked Naruto in his eyes and sighed.
"I offered a pardon. A chance to go back home. A chance to redeem myself and all I had to do was report to the Kings small council."
Naruto nodded his head and surprised Jorah when he put away his sword.
"I'm gonna be honest with you Jorah. I'm really pissed off. But I know how to make a terrible situation into a good once. Plus I need a ally for my grand finale."
"What are you talking about?"
Naruto only chuckled as he strapped his sword back to his waist.
"The less you know the better. But know this, all your letters to the small council will be read by me first and if I even think that you are trying to double cross me then this friendly conversation we're having right now won't be so nice next time."
Jorah laughed as he spit blood out of his mouth.
"You call this friendly."
Naruto only spared Jorah one final glance before he left the knight lying in the alley.
A Few Hours Later
Naruto sat outside of Daenerys's tent balancing the tip of a tri pronged kuni on his finger. His mind raced with ideas. Normally he created plans on the fly but now he had to play the long game. That's why he decided against taking Jorah's head. Lord Jiraiya told him that in order to survive he had to be able to create, adapt and execute a plan.
His thoughts were cut off by Viserys dragging Doreah into the tent.
Daenerys was sitting in her tent talking Irri who was preparing supper. They were soon interrupted when Viserys barged in throwing Doreah down to the floor.
"You sent, this whore to give me commands!?"
He yelled out while the Doreah begged for Daenerys's forgiveness.
"I should have sent you back her head!"
"Hush now it's all right."
She looked at Irri.
"Please help her up."
Irri nodded as she took the girl out of the dwelling sparing a glance at Naruto, who Viserys had yet to notice standing in the doorway.
"Why did you hit her?"
"I hit because I need you to know that you do not command me!" Viserys growled.
"I wasn't commanding you."
Daenerys held out her arm placating. "I just wanted to invite you to supper."
She motioned to the food Irri had already prepared.
"You think I want to eat the shit that girl, that pile of filth, created!" he spat before noticing a piece of cloth on a table. "What is this?"
"It's a gift for you."
Daenerys hoped he would like it. It was supposed to be an olive branch. Her hopes were soon dashed when he looked at her again, hate and malice consuming his visage.
"Dothraki rags." He scoffed. "Are you going to dress me now?"
"Please." Daenerys whimpered.
"This stinks of manure!"
He thew the rags at her as well as a golden necklace.
"All of it!"
"Stop it."
She looked on the verge of tears but he kept yelling. Out of the corner of her eye she saw Naruto standing in the corner.
"Stop it." She tried again more forcefully.
"You would turn me into one of them wouldn't you? Next you will want to braid my hair."
"You have no right to a braid you have won no victories yet." Daenerys hissed and Viserys looked appalled by her tone while Naruto snickered.
"You will not talk back to me you little cunt!"
He slapped her with all his might, sending her to the floor. He quickly held her down before she could even attempt at getting back up.
"You are a little horse lord slut and now you have woken the dragon!"
He growled as he tried to get control of her arms.
Daenerys quickly grabbed a fallen necklace and struck him across the face. By this time Naruto had drew Kuruma and held the tip of the blade to his neck drawing blood. He looked down at Daenerys who glared her brother and he smiled at the fire in her eyes as he held his hand out and helped her up.
When she stood up she straightened her back and looked at her brother who looked ready to piss himself with the tip of Naruto's deadly blade pressed against his skin.
"I am a Khaleesi of the Dothraki. I am the wife of the great Khal and I carry his son inside me."
Viserys glared at his sister but didn't speak a word.
"The only reason why I'm allowing you to live is so you know that I spared your life. Now leave!"
Viserys looked ready to protest but a glare from Naruto silenced him and he quickly scurried out of the room.
The assassin looked at Daenerys with pride in his eyes.
"Let it out."
Daenerys looked at him and let out a breath she didn't know she was holding.
"I can't believe I just did that.
"Well believe it."
The young Targaryen smiles in went to close the distance but Naruto held his hand up to stop her.
"Not here. Now we have to keep up appearances more than ever."
Daenerys nodded as Naruto put his sword away.
"I'm proud of you."
And with that the Assassin was gone leaving Daenerys alone.
And Done!
Just wanted to get this one out to break my writers block. Sorry if I've been gone so long I've just been really busy an uninspired but hopefully this turns a new leaf for me.
As always read, follow, favorite and review!
