Jon Snow 294 AC - 12 Days Ago
Jon and Winter were going towards The Wall, he was riding Winter through the road which led to the Wall, he was sure she didn't like this but he didn't wanted Winterfell to know what he was going to use to travel, Winter was restless but they needed to eat often during the day.
Jon still didn't know why he needed to go To The Wall but Bloodraven said it was really important and that he shouldn't waste time.
' "Why there?" Jon asked Bloodraven, the old man sigh "I can't tell you yet but is something you wanted to know your whole life" Bloodraven responded and Jon was more shocked.
He thought for a second and understood what Bloodraven was talking about it, "You know who is my mother?" He asked with a hint of hope that he would finally know the truth.
Bloodraven nodded and give him a sad smile "Yes my child" he responded quietly.
"Then who is she?" Jon asked wanting to know the answer and hoping he would know it now.
"The time is not right yet my boy, go to the wall and that's when you will find your answer, not a moment sooner or later" Bloodraven responded determined but Jon didn't want to wait.
"Why not now?" Jon asked with a higher tone.
"Listen to me, have I ever give you a reason to not trust me?" Bloodraven asked with a sad smile, Jon sigh and shook his head.
"Then trust me is important that you wait" '
After that Jon had wake up and left Winterfell, a place he thought of as home for a long time, being out there and free showed him Winterfell was no home and would never be.
If Winterfell is not my home then which is my home? Jon asked as tears were developing in his eyes. He had tried so hard for years to endure everything, keep telling himself that this was his home and the people in Winterfell were his family but the more time passed the more he knew that wasn't true.
His father paying less and less attention to him, making him cry thinking that it was his fault that his father didn't like him.
Crying himself to sleep almost every night, No matter what he did, it didn't matter what he did trying to catch his attention but nothing ever worked, instead, he got punished for being better than Robb.
He had dreamed sometimes about his mother, she was very beautiful and very kind in all his dreams. He would ask her who she was in hopes of an answer but that answer never came.
Winter was very fast and even within 2 days of travel he was close to the wall, but the closer he got the colder it was. It was snowing and the ground was covered with snow making it harder sometimes to walk. The winds were very cold, before leaving Winterfell he took some clothes and left in a hurry. A black outfit, was a bit bigger for Jon but he didn't mind, it was keeping him warm and he also got new boots and new gloves made of wolf-skin.
If it was night would be hard to see Jon because everything he wore was a dark color, someone would think that he was a member of Night's Watch.
"Let's rest for now," Jon said to Winter who stopped and Jon jumped down, "Thank You, my girl," Jon said and she licked his face.
He laughed "Stop, you know I don't like it when you lick my face," Jon said laughing and hugging Winter.
"Now let's look for something to eat," Jon said and Winter seemed to agree.
Jon looks up and sees a crow, he closed his eyes and found him.
He started flying around and it didn't take long to find a boar close to them. Jon returns to his body and pulls out his bow and arrow.
Jon and Winter walk slowly through the trees, he looks and sees the boar, he quickly takes control of him and Winter starts sprinting towards the boar, right before she attacks Jon returns and Winter bits his throat killing him immediately.
Jon breaths heavily and he makes his way to the boar, Winter wasn't eating but waiting for him to get his piece. Jon pulls out his knife and cuts through skin and flesh, Blood covering his fingers, it was hard to skin the boar and despite being in a cold place Jon was sweating.
Jon opens the stomach and cuts a big piece of meat for himself. He pulls it away and looks at Winter "Is yours girl" he said and Winter started feasting on the boar.
Jon takes a bottle of skin from his outfit filled with Wine. He collects some wood and leaks wine over the wood.
Jon takes a stick snd starts moving it faster and faster to the other sticks and it took minutes of trying but the wine light up.
He was keeping his hands close to the fire, Winter just stays far enough, After a short while the fire was big enough and he started cooking his meat.
With the knife, he keeps the meat over the fire and he waits minutes until it was done.
Jon had always wondered why his hands liked the heat and didn't bother him.
He starts cutting the cooked meat into pieces and eating. "Thanks, Winter," he said to her and she was just laying on the ground close to him.
After eating, he drinks some water and rests his head on Winter's back.
"Do you think my mother is alive?" Jon asked but he felt dumb, Winter was just looking at him. "I wish she was here with me," Jon said and a tear rolling down his cheek. After minutes of just looking at the sky, Jon closes his eyes to sleep.
Jon opened his eyes in the morning and notices Winter was still in one place, he slowly gets up and Winter gets up too.
"You're lazy Winter," Jon said to her and she looks at him with a surprised look.
Winter starts eating on the dead boar again and He eats some meat from last night. After eating as much as he could Jon gets up and mount Winter.
1 Week Ago
Jon and Winter finally reached the Wall, it was much colder but Jon couldn't deny how beautiful it looked. The Wall was much larger than he ever thought, it looked like it never ends and Jon asked himself how could someone ever build something like that. He had heard tales of Bran The Builder like everyone else. That he was the one who builds the wall and even Winterfell, the ancient seat of House Stark.
Jon reaches the gate and behind him was Winter.
"Who are you?" The man asked at the top of the gates.
"My name is Jon Snow, I'm here to join" Jon responded quickly.
The soldier nodded "Open The Gates" he shouted and the gates slowly open. He walks inside and is greeted by two brothers of Night's Watch.
"You said you're here to Join," the man asked and Jon nodded.
"Very well, follow us, to meet Lord Commander Mormont," one of the men said with a harsh tone. Jon nodded and followed them.
Winter walks behind "You better chain that beast somewhere" one of them said pointing a finger to Winter who started growling.
"He's no beast and he won't hurt anyone" Jon responded with a hint of anger.
"Listen to me, I don't know what he will do but that beasts stays outside," the man said raising his tone and taking a step closer causing Winter to move closer too and showing her teeth. Jon saw the man's hand was going to the sword, Jon knew Winter was faster but the last thing he needed right now was too cause trouble.
He turns to Winter "Stay here" he said kindly and Winter relaxed and sit on the ground and was just looking at them. Jon turns to the two soldiers and they looked at him dumbfounded.
Jon follows them and they entered a cabin.
"Lord Commander, this boy here says he wants to join," the soldier said.
Jon looks at the lord commander, he was old, with white hair and a long beard.
He looks at Jon "You are?" He asked.
"Jon Snow" he answered and the commander raised his eyebrow and looks at the other two "Leave us" he commanded and they left.
"You understand, your father has sent a raven to every lord of The North looking for you," he said sitting on his chair and looking at him.
Jon sigh "I didn't know that and I'm not interested to return to Winterfell" Jon responded coldly and saw the surprise look of The Lord Commander.
"You're still young to join," he said looking at Jon's face, chest, and shoulder.
"You're very well build, I give you that but you're still very young," Lord Commander said kindly.
"Lord Commander, can I see the master?" He asked, he looks at him surprised and confused.
"Why?" He asked.
"I need to speak with him" Jon responded honestly, the lord commander seemed to think about it.
"Very well, his chamber is close to the library, you can stay here for a day or two if you want but not longer," Lord Commander said seriously looking at Jon.
He nodded and gets up and leaves the room.
After searching a bit around the castle, he found the chamber with the help of a brother of Night's Watch named Arti
"Here," he said and Jon opens the door "Don't stay long, he's very old," Arti said and Jon just nodded and closed the door behind him.
"Who are you, young man?" The old master asked, there was a candle burning on the table in front of the old master, Jon could see his face was old, a few hairs left in his head and blinded eyes.
"My name is Jon Snow" Jon responded walking closer to the master and sitting in the chair.
"A new brother?" He asked kindly.
"No master, I'm not here to join" Jon responded and thinking why would he needed to meet him and how could the old master know anything about him.
"Why are you here young man?" He asked, his eyes closed but Jon could swear he could see.
" The Seven Kingdoms need to be ruled by an Aegon, not an egg, kill the boy, egg, and let Aegon Be Reborn," Jon said quietly and the old master gasped.
After a few moments "How do you know that?" He asked with a higher tone.
"Bloodraven told me" Jon responded and could see the master was confused. After a few moments, He seemed to relax "Do you know who I'm young man?" The master asked.
"Aemon Targaryen" Jon responded with a respectful tone.
The old master seemed to be thinking about something and for a few minutes there was silence "Can I?" He asked reaching out his hand.
Jon didn't understand what he wanted to do "I don't understand" Jon responded confused.
"Let me touch your face," he asked kindly, Jon was more confused but leans forward and his hand touches his chin, jawline, his nose, cheek, and hair.
The breathing of the old master seems to get harder "Your color of hair and eyes?" He asked.
"Long dark hair and Dark Grey Eyes" saying that Jon saw the master's face suddenly filled with sadness and there was a hint of anger.
"Oh my boy, the world is filled with bad people, cruel people," the master said his head down and he was looking at the table.
"I don't understand" Jon responded, what was wrong and why would he say that.
The old master sigh sadly "Did Lord Stark ever tell you about your mother?" He asked his voice kinder.
Jon found that strange, why would Aemon Targaryen ask that question to him, he didn't know him.
"I. . . No, he never said anything" Jon responded sadly thinking about his mother.
"Your hair and eyes are just like Rhaegar described her in his letters," the old master said and Jon was shocked.
Rhaegar, Rhaegar Targaryen The King Jon thought and he was sure he heard him wrong.
"Rhaegar, you mean the king?" Jon asked.
"Yes my boy, your hair and and eyes are hers but your face is very similar to my brother Aegon," the old master said with a genuine smile but Jon felt his heart stop.
Why what what he does he mean by that, how How can I look like his brother Aegon, that's That's impossible Jon thought sure and feeling his heart beating in his throat.
He swallowed a huge breath "What. . . What do you mean my hair and eyes are like her? Like who?" Jon asked and his mind racing.
"Like Lyanna Stark my nephew, she was your mother and Rhaegar Targaryen is your father" he answered and took his hands on his "You're alive" he added and tears rolling down his cheek.
Nothing
There was no Answer from Jon
Not even a whisper
Jon felt he couldn't breathe, his mind was just racing and thinking about what the old master just said.
Your mother was Lyanna Stark
But but but she was married to King Rhaegar
He felt like the whole world was spinning, he couldn't believe it.
Your father is Rhaegar Targaryen
You're no Bastard the mind told him.
Why Why Would Why Would Lord Stark Take Me Then it It Doesn't make Sense
Jon's mind was going through everything that happened in his life, his father's constant denial to talk about his mother, and his clear hatred for the Targaryens. Him letting him to Suffer.
How How How Could you Why You Monster, You Took Took TOOK ME AWAY Jon screamed inside, tears coming out like rain.
He felt he was on the ground but he didn't care.
My Mother Was Dead The Whole TIME
HOW COULD YOU
"WHY" Jon screamed and hitting the floor with all his strength, he felt the wood snap but Jon didn't care.
My Mother Was There The Whole Time, She Will Never Come To Save Me, To Hug Me, and kissing my Cheek.
Jon felt his vision blur from the tears, his dreams were never real, SHE WOULD NEVER COME.
He heard someone talking to him in his rage but he couldn't focus No, He, He Wanted to Burn it all Down.
"Why Why Why" Jon kept asking and with each question he kept hitting the floor with his fist.
He falls on his hands and knees crying and sobbing loudly.
Jon just keeps looking at the floor, and the tears falling on the floor.
He knew mast... uncle Aemon was calling him but he couldn't answer, he couldn't talk, he opened his mouth to talk but no words coming out.
After what felt like hours, "My boy" he heard his uncle call him.
His hand on his shoulder and he was trying Jon to make him look at him.
Jon slowly turns his head to his uncle, his uncle looked worried, "Jae please sit" he said kindly but all Jon could think of was what his uncle called him.
"What . . . What did you say?" Jon asked looking at his uncle.
"Jae, Your name is Jaehearys Targaryen" his uncle answered.
"Your father Rhaegar mentioned your name if you were a boy or a girl in his letters, your mother decided for your name Jaehearys if you were a boy and Rhaegar decided for Visenya if you were a girl" Uncle Aemon said kindly.
Jaehearys smiled a little and slowly sit on the chair, despite being old, his uncle fills a glass with water for him.
He sits on his chair "I'm sorry maybe I sho" "No don't worry master Aemon" Aemon was interrupted by Jaehearys who was still looking at the table.
"Uncle, you can call me uncle" his uncle answered kindly.
Jaehearys smiled but still looking at the ground. "Look at me," his uncle said and Jae slowly turns his head to him.
"I know this is hard for you, and trust me, your family will love you and they will bring Fire and Blood to them," his uncle said but Jae couldn't answer.
After a minute of silence "Did you know anything about my mother?" Jae asked quietly and drinking the whole glass with water and filling another one.
His uncle gave him a sad smile "I never knew her my boy, but your father talked about her in his letters, he said that he loved her with all his heart" Aemon responded and Jae grows a little smile.
"She was wild, she wasn't like any other woman" his uncle added and grabbing his hands.
"If you want I will send a letter to Kings Landing right now," his uncle said but Jae shook his head.
"No, not right now" Jae responded, his uncle disagreed with him but didn't say anything.
"Can I do something for you?" He asked kindly but Jaehearys shook his head and gets up.
"No, I need. . . I need to be alone" he said and was about to open the door when he falls to the ground.
Jaehearys Targaryen
He was in a dark place, he didn't know where he was, when hears a voice "You Know Now" it was Bloodraven. Jon turned around and saw him in the same tree, the darkness around Jae slowly became the cave he knew Bloodraven lived.
"Why didn't you tell me from the very beginning?" Jaehearys asked harshly and with a commanding tone.
Bloodraven looks at him with a sad smile "Trust me, is The Only Way" he responded confusing Jae.
"The only way for what?" He asked with a higher tone.
"When the time comes you will understand" he responded with a tired tone.
"Now I want you to do something, This is it, this is why you have been trained to Warg," Bloodraven said proudly.
Before Jaehearys could ask, he sees in his right a kid or what looked like a kid coming towards him.
Jae turns to her and she hands him what looked like a sharp dark knife.
"What is it?" Jae asked inspecting the knife, made of strange metal or glass.
"Is dragon glass my boy" Bloodraven answered.
Jaehearys was surprised by this, he had read about dragonglass before, it was a beautiful knife.
"I want you to cut your palm with it and put your hand on the Weirwood tree," Bloodraven said.
Jae wasn't sure why he would need that "Why?" Jae asked, turning to Bloodraven.
"Is the only way to call him, to wake him" Bloodraven responded and Jae walks closer.
"Who?" He asked and putting the blade close to his palm.
"Dragons of Old Valyria" he responded and Jaehearys wasn't sure what was happening.
He felt his whole body turned cold as ice, he saw as his hand moved on his own and cut the palm, it wasn't a deep cut but enough to draw some blood, Jaehearys walks closer and put his hand on the Weirwood tree.
"I'm Awake"
Jae heard an old voice, he looks around and Bloodraven wasn't here anymore.
He then sees two green eyes looking at him, Jaehearys felt afraid but quickly pushed it away.
Jaehearys slowly saw the whole dragon, one of his teeth was as large as his body.
Jae was breathing heavily, he walks closer, Jae closed his eyes and touch Dragon's head and tries to warg him.
At that moment Jae felt Pain, like never before, he was trying very hard to not lose, the dragon was trying to push him away but Jaehearys was trying and trying to not lose this. He needed to win, he couldn't lose.
The Dragon roars at him and Jaehearys was trying to take control.
He kept on trying and trying, but was getting harder. Jae kept on trying but he knew he was losing. No No No.
He kept trying but suddenly the struggle of the dragon stopped and he warged him.
Jae opened his eyes and saw himself in a place covered with snow.
"Not Bad, I have been waiting for You" Jae heard the dragon talk to him.
"How, how can you talk?" Jae asked shocked.
" We're bonded now, Everything that you feel I feel too, I needed someone with your blood, only a man with your blood could be my rider," the dragon said shocking Jae more.
"Where are we?" Jae asked trying to understand where they were.
"I'm in The North close to the wall, on an island, I have been sleeping for decades, now I'm finally Awake and I have a Bond," the dragon said and Jae could swear the dragon sounded sad.
"What's your name?" Jae asked feeling strange talking to him.
"I don't have a name, the rider chooses the name, I never had one" the dragon responded sadly.
"Can I give you a name?" Jaehearys asked.
"Yes," the dragon responded with a hint of happiness.
Jaehearys thought about a name and decided "Your name will be Bloodfyre" Jaehearys said and Bloodfyre released a huge roar.
Jaehearys opens his eyes and notices he was in his uncle's chamber. He looks at his palm and sees the cut. Jae looks around and sees someone he didn't expect.
"You finally awake, it took two days but you finally woke up," Uncle Benjen said happily and gets up.
"Uncle Benjen," Jae said confused as his uncle hugs him.
His uncle pulls away "Look at you, you have grown and become a man" His uncle said smiling but he didn't return the smile.
"Jon, you alright?" His uncle asked kindly and put a hand on his shoulder.
"My Name is Not Jon" Jaehearys screamed at him causing his uncle to take a few steps back, he looked at him shocked and confused "What do you mean?" He asked.
Jaehearys felt his anger raising "Did you know who my mother was?" Jae asked raising his tone almost yelling.
"I'm sorry Jo . . . Ned never told me," he said sadly "Did Ned tell you?" He added.
"No uncle Aemon did" Jaehearys responded with a small smile on his face.
His uncle looked at him more confused "Uncle Aemon, What . . . What do you mean?" His uncle asked and his voice only but a whisper.
It didn't take long and his uncle's eyes widened in shock "I'm sorry, I swear I did" he said but interrupted by the door opening.
His uncle Aemon comes inside and smiles when he understands that Jaehearys was awake.
"How are you, my boy?" He asked kindly but looking at Uncle Benjen worriedly.
"I'm fine" Jae answered with a kinder tone still looking at Uncle Benjen.
"I should have known, I should have never been stupid enough to think that Ned would ever father a Bastard," his uncle said sadly and looking at the ground.
Uncle Aemon looks at Jaehearys"I told him" Jae responded.
"Jon I" he was interrupted by the cold glare of Jaehearys.
"My name is Jaehearys" he responded quietly and with a threatening tone at his uncle and his uncle noticed.
"Why are you here?" Jae asked coldly.
His uncle sigh sadly "A rider came to me while I was making my way to Winterfell, he told me you were there and I rushed as fast as I could" Uncle Benjen responded.
Jae closes his eyes and felt Winter, she was close and then he feels him.
"I can feel your hatred, let me burn them," Bloodfyre said.
"No, we're going somewhere first," Jaehearys said and opened his eyes.
When he opened his eyes "Your dire wolve is still here" His uncle said with a hint of happiness when he mentioned the dire wolve.
"I know" Jae answered quietly and emotionless.
"Jaehearys," his uncle said with a sadder tone, he turns to him.
"I know you have no reason to trust me, after . . . After everything but trust me If I would have known, I would have taken you away myself" his uncle responded honestly.
Jae sigh "Thank You uncle," Jae said with a kinder tone and his uncle smiled.
Jaehearys then remembered, "Uncle, did . . . Can you talk to me about my mother?" Jae asked and his uncle smiled and nodded "Of course my nephew" he responded with tears in his eyes.
Aemon Targaryen - 5 Days Ago
When he touched his face, he knew he was a part of his family. He was happy but at the same time he felt sad, how much could Jaehearys have suffered because they thought he was a bastard. When he raged, he was afraid Jaehearys would hurt himself.
After he calmed down, Aemon wanted to follow him but then he fell to the ground, he quickly gets up and walks to him, shaking him and calling him but no response. He was afraid he would lose him, he quickly touched his neck and understood he was alive.
He then asked for help, a brother helped to lay him in his bed, Aemon checked for hours but the young Jaehearys didn't look injured.
He sigh in relief when he understood he wasn't injured or didn't look to have any sickness but why did he suddenly drop to the ground.
The next day he woke up sleeping in a second bed they prepared for him, Lord Commander suggested to move him to another room but he refused saying he might be in a very dangerous situation and needed all his attention all the time, Aemon wasn't sure if the lord commander was convinced but he didn't care.
But then Benjen Stark came rushing into his room, usually, he would be happy to see him but now he wasn't sure.
His brother prison his nephew, he didn't know if he was part of it.
' "How is he?" He asked looking at Jaehearys who was sleeping peacefully or at least Aemon thought.
"He's fine Brother Benjen" he responded a bit afraid of his intentions.
He sighs in relief and gets closer to Jae and touches his forehead.
"Poor Jon, I hope you wake up soon," he said kindly and kiss his forehead.
Brother Benjen sits close to him and turns to Aemon.
"What happened?" He asked and Aemon wasn't sure how to answer.
After thinking about it "He was about to leave the room when he just dropped in the ground" He answered.
"What will you do after he wakes up?" Aemon asked a bit afraid of his answer.
"He left Winterfell for a reason, I want to listen to what he has to say before I decide" Benjen answered honestly, and Aemon sigh in relief.
When he woke up, he was very happy but now he just hoped that Benjen would not try to harm him. Aemon already sends a letter to Kings Landing yesterday informing them of Jaehearys.
Benjen Stark
He was at the top of the wall with Jon or is Jaehearys now, he still couldn't believe that he's Lyanna's son. Now he felt very angry about what Ned had done, he had visited Jaehearys a few times and didn't need to be smart to understand Jon was treated very harshly, his clothes in a very bad state, he had told Ned over and over to treat him better but they all fell in deaf ears.
Now he understood, he had willingly left Jon to suffer, He felt to go there and strangle him with his own bare hands. But if he felt like that how did Jon or the king will feel once the truth is out.
One thing that scared Benjen was Jon's eyes, his eyes were dark grey but when he yelled at him that his name was Jaehearys Targaryen, his eyes were pure green like Wildfire and after he relaxed, his eyes turned to normal, Benjen could feel that Jon was ready to burn down the whole North.
"Jo . . . Jaehearys," he said and Jaehearys turns to him.
Before Benjen could continue "How was she?" He asked with a sad tone.
He sighs "She was kind, beautiful, and wild, she used to do many things when we were kids," he said with a chuckle remembering all the stupid things they did.
"What things?" Jaehearys asked curiously.
"Once me and she put shit in Ned's shoes," he said but he noticed Jae's angry face when he mentioned Ned.
"Once she dressed up as a commoner and beat Brandon in a spar, and father yelled at Brandon for losing," he said and Jaehearys was smiling.
"Once I did something to Brandon and Lyanna took the blame for me," he said sadly, "She always wanted to help and had a hard head like a rock" he added.
"Do . . . Do you think she would have loved me?" He asked shocking him with that question.
He turns to him and puts his hand on his shoulder "Listen Jaehearys, she would have loved you with all her heart and she still does" He said but Jae didn't smile.
His eyes turn to him "Do you love me?" He asked emotionless.
"Of course" he answered honestly.
"Even if I decide to kill Lord Stark?" He asked coldly, his voice without any hint of emotion.
He swallowed a huge breath and wasn't sure what to say himself.
"Jon I," he said but was interrupted by Jaehearys shooting him a cold glare.
"I'm leaving," he said and left before he could say anything.
He was following him and he was going to the gates, "Tell Master Aemon I will return" he said and left through the gates and he stopped walking. Benjen was thinking why, his dire wolves Winter was standing close to him but then he hears a loud noise.
He looks up and sees the most terrifying thing he has ever seen, right in front of Jon lands a huge dragon, he was pure black and he looked just very big. The dragon roar and everyone panics in fear, he sees everyone running away. But Jon who just climbs on him like it was the most normal thing to do.
He saw Jon murmured something to the dragon and the dragon took the skies.
"Jon" he whispered as the dragon flew beyond the wall.
