In the morning, Jon Snow was talking to Sansa. "I'm sending you to speak with Daenerys about White Walkers. I have to stay here and command the defence." Sansa nodded. "I won't dissapoint you." They were walking through the courtyard when they saw Barbara near the stables. Her eye was halfway closed, lip was busted and still bleeding. A huge bruise was over her right eye.
"You will take Barbara with you.." Jon said quietly. "I'm not travelling with her!" Sansa protested. "Look at her." Jon pointed in Barbara's direction. "He will kill her one day"
"I told you he was a monster." Sansa added "Fine, she may come with me." When Sansa and Jon came to Barbara, Sansa seemed like she was staring at her. "You always held yourself above me, Sansa. As if I was a mutt." Barbara's mouth streched into an ugly smile " Now i resemble one, all bruised like I am. Do you enjoy seeing me like this?" Sansa flinched. She wanted to appologize so badly but all she could say was :" You are what you let yourself be, and what you let others do to you." Sansa left. Immediately, she felt even worse. It is disgraceful to hit a fallen enemy. Jon spoke to Barbara. "I want you to go to the King's landing with Sansa. She needs protection on the King's road." Barbara nodded and added :" And you wish to send someone with a brain to speak with Daenerys." Barbara smiled. Jon didn't manage to fully hide his smile. "Can I bring Elena with us?" "Of course" Jon approved.
Sansa, Barbara, Elena and 7 more guards went on a trip. Not long after they rode out of the city, Sansa and Barbara heard two guards talking:"We should be out there fighting White Walkers and not travelling with bunch of girls."
Sansa frowned. "Do you think our mission is less important than fighting? Are you not aware that wars are waged with words as well as swords?" Barbara turned to the guards. "With diplomacy we expect to bring dragons on our side. And dragons, my dear soldier, are worth much more than your mangy hide."
Sansa and Barbara nodded to eachother. "Maybe she isn't so dumb afterall" Both of them thought. They rode for days. Elena passed some water to Barbara. "Can't you travel without the company of your servant? Or are you just trying to pretend you are still a lady with some worth to your name?" Sansa grinned. "Is this your way of asking me to lend you my servant? Your manners are lacking, if that is the case." Barbara had a wide smile on her face. "But very well. Elena, tend to the nice lady's needs."
"As if your servant is good enough to serve me" Sansa said and rode ahead.
When they arrived at King's Landing, everything seemed at peace. Some of the buildings were destroyed by fire. "The battle is clearly over" Sansa spoke. Suddenly, a dragon flew right above them and headed toward the castle. "Well, it seems that Daenerys was victorious." Elena stated. Not long ago after they entered the city some of the Unsullied soldiers stopped them. "State your business, now!" Their comander said. "We came to talk with Daenerys Targaryan" Sansa said. "You may speak with her, but without you knights"
"Deal" Barbara smiled. The Unsullied took Barbara, Elena and Sansa to the Great Hall.
"Your grace." Sansa bent her knee. "We come to ask for your help. "You may rise" Daenerys spoke. "Who are you?"
"My name is Sansa Stark. My brother Jon is king in the North."
"Bastard brother" Barbara added and Sansa scoled her with a look. "Who did that to you?" Daenerys asked. "I fell down the stairs" Barbara smiled. She stepped forward and said "We need your dragons to fight the undead, the White Walkers."
"White Walkers?" Daenerys asked suprised. " Yes Your Grace, we saw them with our own eyes."
"I will consult with my advisors and give you my answer tomorrow. Untill then, you will be my honoured guests."
That night Barbara had a nightmare. She woke up all sweaty. She couldn't fall asleep so she dressed up and went in the garden. She was sitting there when a giant dragon landed infront of her. Barbara flinched. "Oh fuck..." Barbara said to herself. Suddenly she saw a woman on dragon's back. The woman slowly got down and walked infront of Barbara. It was Daenerys. "He won't harm you" she smiled. Barbara nodded still not believing that she was in front of a gigantic dragon.
"You know, my brother used to abuse me too" Daenerys sighned. "But look at how much I have acomplished without him." Barbara looked at her. "Why are you telling me all this?"
"Your eye..It is easier if you share your story with someone." She smiled. Barbara hesitated.
"This bruise is nothing."
"It looks pretty bad to me" Daenerys said as she was petting her dragon. "It is my fault, i disobeyed him, my brother Ramsay would never..." Barbara said quietly.
"You shouldn't let him do that to you." She frowned. "Think about what I said" Daenerys said and climbed on her dragon. "Oh, one more thing, I decided to help you with the White Walkers." She said and her dragon flew up. Barbara was standing there and thinking about what just happend.
