AN: Please don't ask me to finish other stories or if I plan on resuming my other works in the reviews, I will get around to it, when I get around to it, but for now this is what I want to write.
Chapter 4
Tourney
With Naruto
"It appears father wants to hold a tourney to honor making Lord Eddard his new hand." Samui spoke as she walked besides Naruto through the royal gardens, the sun was basking them upon them and both Samui and Naruto had switched their clothing from the thicker furs they used in the North to more loosely hanging tunics and dresses to better fitted the climate of King's landing.
"I've heard, I've also heard Eddard's direct disapproval for the tourney, whenever I try talking with him about it all he says is "I don't want it," I'm looking forward to it though, can't even remember the last time I saw a tourney and this time I will participate." Naruto said proudly as he stopped a few times during his walk for Samui to look behind some bushes, Samui had come to talk to him while he was playing a game of hide-and-seek with Tommen and Myrcella, who both could be heard giggling in the distance.
"Oh, and which disciplines do you plan on participating in?" Samui asked curiously, while she helped looking for Tommen and Myrcella.
"Father, agreed to let me participate in all of the events, not sure how well I will fare though, Ser Barristan has agreed to practice jousting with me." Naruto spoke, he felt comfortable about the melee and somewhat comfortable about the archery, and while he did think of himself as a good rider, at most he's been hunting on horseback, he had no experience about tilting other men off horses.
If Samui was surprised, she didn't show it. "I see, would you like to bear my favor during the tourney?" She asked and Naruto did turn his head rather quickly in surprise, "that would be a grand honor." He answered with a warm smile.
A short while later, the servant in the garden were smiling at them, as Naruto walked away with a laughing Myrcella, while Samui was carrying and equally laughing Tommen.
Time passed and Naruto went to his next meeting with his mother and the tailor.
"Your request, Robert has allowed you to sit in on the small council meetings." Cersei spoke as she watched her son standing only in his underwear, while a small tyroshi man took Naruto's measurements. Naruto had asked her, since he would one day most likely be acting as Joffrey's hand, so he wanted the experience of sitting in on the council.
After the tailor was done, he began scribbling down, the design for the armor that would be delivered to the blacksmith, Cersei having a few wishes of her own for the custom-made armor, Naruto not objecting to anyone of them, though a few did raise his eyebrow, he swore sometimes his mother would forget that he was half stag.
When the small tyroshi man finished he quickly scurried off, leaving Cersei and Naruto alone. Naruto quickly beginning to pick up his clothes and redress himself. "Is King's landing as you remember?" Cersei asked, while Naruto finished adjusting his breeches.
Naruto released a small chuckle, "well I saw the beggar prince this morning, still wearing all his rainbow-colored fathers, that did bring forth a good bit of nostalgia, is he still persisting father?" Naruto asked, while Cersei offered her own smile, though it lacked the joy that Naruto usually put into his own.
"I'm afraid so, Robert still entertains the idea of conquering the Summer Isles, your father could end his annoying begging with a simple no, but he won't." Cersei spoke, having never liked the beggar prince at court. As fine as the Summer islander covered himself, he was still just a beggar.
"Something on your mind?" Naruto decided to ask, as he could read his mother's face, which looked deep in thought.
"You've been entertaining a northern girl at nights, haven't you?" She let out and Naruto did look like a deer that was about to be hunted down as a look of surprise overcame his face, he was quite curious as to how his mother knew, did she have people spy on him? No, he doubted his mother would ever do that, most likely rumor from by passing servant that could have caught a quick glimpse of Jeyne.
"I have, is something wrong with that?" Naruto admitted, his mother gave him a short and quick smile, "no things' wrong with that, but I want you to still remember you're a prince." She told Naruto who didn't quite get the meaning, was she saying he was dishonoring himself?
Cersei did see the skeptic look on Naruto's face and decided to elaborate. "You're a prince and one of the most desired men in seven kingdoms, you don't have to be bound down by the North, if you want, I can easily arrange ten beautiful bedmates for you, far more beautiful and mature than that young skinny girl you're playing around with." Cersei said and Naruto did raise a single eyebrow when he understood her meaning, she was simply telling him, that he could do better.
"Ahaha, I appreciate the offer, but I'm good for now." Naruto assured her as he took a seat on the bed next to his mother.
"A prince is allowed to be a little selfish and when my little cub has finally found his way home after 10 years, his mother is also allowed to spoil him, if you ever want anything, tell me and I will get it for you." Cersei assured as the she cupped Naruto's cheeks in her hands and leaned up and planted her lips on his forehead, a warm smile spreading across Naruto lips.
"I feel spoiled, just by being near you mother." They shared a warm embrace.
Small Council Room
Naruto had to get used to the new faces of importance at the Red Keep, at the council now sat Eddard Stark the hand of the king, Barristan Selmy commander of the King's guard, Renly Baratheon Master of Laws, Petyr Baelish Master of Coin, Varys Master of Whispers and Grand maester Pycelle, Naruto himself had taken the only chair not currently occupied as his uncle Stannis the Master of Ships, was still absent at Dragon Stone.
Out of all of them it was only his uncle Renly and the new Master of Coin Petyr Baelish that he didn't know very well. Currently they were sitting and listening to the commander of the city's gold cloaks report. Janos Slynt was a short man he had the build of a beer keg, Naruto was told the man, like the friend Arya made, was the son of a butcher, how someone like this had risen to the position of commander of the gold cloaks Naruto would never understand.
"It's the hand's tourney that's causing all this trouble." Janos spoke, sounding exhaust, sweat pouring from his head, as he was still wearing his armor, while the sun outside was baking down on the city.
"The king's tourney, I assure you the hand wishes no part of it." Ned said with an annoyed groan as he to swept away some of the sweat that had build on his forehead, Starks were never meant to endure in a heat such as this he believed.
"No matter the name, my lords, we have knights arrive from every corner of the seven kingdoms and with each knight, we get free riders, men-at-arms, new craftsmen from with different talents, merchants and whores and far too many thieves that I would dare to try and say… Just last night we had two drownings, a tavern brawl, seven knife fights, a rape, a street race down the street of SIsters and just this morning a woman's severed head was found inside of the great sept."
"If you can't uphold the king's peace, perhaps another man would be more suited for your position." Renly spoke unsympathetic, while Janos face did turn a red at the insult, he still kept his tongue in his mouth.
"I just require more men." Janos insisted.
"You will hire 50 new men. Lord Baelish will find the coin." Eddard spoke, getting a quick look from the Master of Coin.
"I will?"
"You found 40,000 gold dragons for the champions purse, I'm sure you can find a few coppers to uphold the king's peace." Eddard continued, while Naruto almost choked, Robert was known by his generous nature, but still it was an enormous amount.
Naruto leaned back and seemed bored for the last half hour of the council meeting, before it was done.
"As you can see nephew, a terribly dull affair." Renly spoke as he raised himself from his chair and looked over at Naruto.
"I didn't expect the subject of whores to fill as much as it did." Naruto said with a small stretch as he too stood up, according to Baelish thanks to the tourney the whores were going bowlegged and were jingling with each step, whoring being the best profitable business in King's landing now.
Renly let out a small laugh. "I actually believe that's why Stannis is no longer among us, you know at one time he suggested outlawing brothels and whoring, but our dear king asked him if he wanted to outlaw breathing and shitting as well. It's amazing enough the man actually managed to conceive a daughter."
Naruto did give Renly a small look. "Speaking off, any news if Stannis might return? I've never meat with Cousin Shireen before." The blonde asked but, was let down as nobody seemed to know for certain whenever Stannis wanted to honor them with his presence once more.
"Stannis won't bring that girl anywhere, you have heard about her affliction, right?" Renly spoke, Naruto have heard about Shireen and her greyscales, but still she was his Cousin, besides he doubted it could be as bad as people said.
"Yes, I've heard… Ser Barristan, do you have the time, for a bit of practice?" Naruto asked, wanting to shift the focus. The old man bore a small smile as he heard Naruto.
"Of course, your grace, I look forward to seeing how much you've improved." Ser Barristan said with a smile as the old man could still remember Naruto as a child in the Red keep, Naruto having always requested to fight against the legendary swordsman, though the boy had trouble just raising a sword with both arms.
With Sansa,
She loved King's landing with all her heart, the city reminded her of the stories she read when she was small, with beautiful green gardens and flowers, men walked around in golden armor and from all over the realm knights and lords were flocking to King's landing to participate in the hand's tourney.
They had stayed at King's landing for well over a month already, and each day was amazing as the next, though her father and sister Arya didn't share her fond feelings for the capital.
She could tell her father was annoyed and tired most of the time, the small council meetings and the heat of King's landing did seem to take hard on him as her father looked somehow smaller than she had ever seen him before.
Arya was equally annoyed, holing herself up most of the time and when she wasn't, she was either spending time with Naruto or would explore the castle, though father had given both Sansa and Arya specific instruction on never leaving the Red Keep without an escort.
Things weren't perfect though, while she did adore King's landing, a few issues had arisen, Naruto would often visit to take Lady and Nymeria out on walks in the gardens, but she still didn't talk with Naruto much, surely, he was still her friend, but she's found it more difficult to look him in the eyes after knowing what he's doing to her friend Jeyne.
Even now as she was heading out for the wagon that would transport them to the tourney, she was looking at Jeyne, who was wearing a beautiful red dress, Sansa knew someone like Jeyne would never be able to afford a silk woven dress like that and quickly figured out it must have been a gift from Naruto.
It annoyed Sansa more than she would care to admit.
Arya was forced into a small cute blue frilly dress, while Sansa herself decided to wear a beautiful green that made her auburn hair stand out. Septa Mordane rode with them in the wagon, while her father would arrive shortly.
They didn't have to ride for long, before they begun seeing the splendorous tourney ground that had been set up, hundreds of pavilions next to the river and they rode past the smallfolk that had gathered outside to watched in the thousands, moving past, she began seeing knight after knight out in the open field, next to another hundreds of tents, young boys running around acting as squires.
She could see the banner of houses from all over Westeros, she remembered the banner of house Royce, from their brief visit in Winterfell, a great deal of smaller houses from the Riverlands, she saw the lion from the Casterly Rock, the green rose from Highgarden, even the sun pierced by a spear, meaning the Martells had arrived as well. Though from each house Sansa recognized there were two she didn't.
She took her seat up on the stands, to her left sat Arya and to her right Jeyne, while the septa sat right of Jeyne, there was a left empty spot for her father left of Arya, when he would turn up, which Sansa prayed he would do soon, this entire tourney was held in her father's honor. Thankfully he did show up just before the knights and riders would take the stage, though again he didn't look the slightest bit happy, which Sansa couldn't understand.
Sansa didn't dare guess just how many knight and nobles would take part in the joust, as they began riding in, they would all line up in front of the stand and pay their respect to king Robert, before he announced the start. She saw all seven of the king's guard in the beautiful armor and snow-white cloaks as they rode past her.
She saw Naruto in armor that looked a bit similar to the one Renly had, though there were noticeable differences, while both Naruto and Renly had unique helmet designs with antlers, Naruto visible went for the most realistic looking antlers, while Renly had long straight antlers made of solid gold, while the ones Naruto used seemed like ivory as they held a bone white color.
Their armor made it much easier to pick them apart as well, Renly had dyed his armor green, while Naruto wore a mix of a golden color mixed with Lannister red, on his shoulder pads the lion were symbolized again, though the large stag on his chest was the most prominent feature.
Once more Sansa recalled, when she was a small little girl and Naruto had arrived at Winterfell a boy of just six years, even now she could remember how excited she was, but as years passed Naruto became more and more like any other northerner at Winterfell and he would crawl around and fight with Robb in the mud, she still liked Naruto, but he wasn't like the southern knights in her story.
That was at Winterfell though, right now as Sansa looked over Naruto and saw him covered from head to toe in beautiful steel armor, her heart did beat a little faster as he looked much more like one of the knights from her stories.
For just a moment Sansa forgot where she actually was and her cheeks burned red, when she believed all the knights and nobles bowed before her, but that wasn't so.
"Yes, yes just get started already." Sansa turned to look up at the king, who gave a quick wave of his hand and urged them to start, her beloved Joffrey sat to the left of the king, she briefly wondered why Joffrey hadn't joined the tourney, but decided not to think too much about it, to the King's right sat the queen and to her right the princess Samui and then Myrcella, though she couldn't see the youngest prince Tommen anywhere.
Some of the knights begun riding away, while many other knights rode closer to the stands, looking further down the stand she saw a few women rising from the seats and approached the many knights and nobles, before they handed over a small thing, from a flower to a handkerchief and Sansa realized they were handing out favors for their favorite.
Sansa barely got to wonder, if anyone would come and ask for her own before Naruto, had rode up before her. Sansa's cheeks quickly began burning surely Naruto didn't mean to ask her, she was betrothed to his brother! She was already remembering the old stories about Prince Aemon the Dragonknight and the queen Naerys Targaeryen.
She refused to let Naruto be humiliated though, she wasn't going to turn him down if he asked and just as Sansa was about to rise, she saw the gold and crimson color pass by her out of the corner of her eye. Naruto raised a single hand and Samui passed him a light blue favor. Sansa finally realizing it wasn't her Naruto had awaited and a small look of disappointment adorned her face, when Naruto rode away and Princess Samui turned back around, she must have noticed Sansa's small, disappointed look as she gave Sansa a small smirk.
She then heard a man's shouting voice in the distance as he presented the two first men, both men came from smaller unknown houses and Sansa had no idea from which kingdom they might have come from. She watched as both men lowered their lances and both steeds went into a gallop a large sound of wood splintering as once man was sent down on his back in the mud and another man remained on his horse, Sansa herself joining in on the applause.
Every now and then she would hear a name she recognized, a blush befell her cheeks once more as she laid eyes on perhaps the most handsome knight, she had ever seen, wearing green armor embroiled with gold, Ser Loras Tyrell was the third son of the current Lord of Highgarden, he was sitting gallantly on his steed and had easily unmounted a rider from house Dayne.
There was a small horrific accident when Ser Gregor Clegane, the largest man in the tourney by far, killed a poor young knight from the Vale, despite the killing it was ruled as an accident and Ser Gregor was declared the winner, Jeyne must have felt sickly after the death as she had to excuse herself, while Sansa looked to Arya, who seemed more interested than horrified by the killing.
Naruto's first opponent was a member of the King's guard, Ser Mandon Moore, Sansa worried slightly for Naruto having to start out against a member of the king's guard, but her worry was unneeded as Naruto easily unhorsed Ser Mandon Moore.
A few men from her father's household guard also participated with varying results, some of them reaching a few rounds in and another few defeated in the first round, Jory did manage to get all the way to his third tilt, which ended up being a draw with Ser Lothor Brune, but Robert had given the victory to Ser Lothor as he had landed the best hits.
The day moved on quickly as horses kept on running on the field, the sky itself turned to a beautiful orange as the sun began to set, yet the tourney continued, many jousts still left and even when the orange beauty left and it became dark, with stars filling the sky, horses could still be heard.
"Arghh!" The hound made a pained groan as he hit the dirt and mud beneath him as Naruto unhorsed the man, only four riders were left. Prince Naruto, Ser Loras, Ser Jamie and Ser Gregor. A total of three jousts left to find a victor, but the king deemed it fit with waiting for the last three till tomorrow, so the riders were in a rested condition and could perform at their best.
They would head down towards the river now, long tables had been sat up and large braziers were outside, while food had been prepared for the nobles and knights.
When Sansa arrived, she saw the many long tables, with one of them hanging the sigil of her house, she could hear the musicians began playing their songs as soon the nobles began filling the tables, her own table was near the royals.
Even more so than doing the tourney she found herself looking around eagerly at the knights and Lords and Ladies that walked around during the feast, the smell of delicious roasted and smoked meat filling her nose, on the tables stood long lines of wine and water.
"There's my boy, come on get up here!" Every head outside turned, when they heard the loud boisterous voice of King Robert, eyes turning to see an exhausted prince Naruto waltzing up to the royal table, having changed from his armor, into a black doublet covered with lines of gold, his breeches matching the pattern and his body would seem almost invisible if not for the brasiers lighting up the area.
"I'm coming, got any food I'm starved." Naruto had barely spoken, before servant came running to fill up his plate at his seat, "drink my boy, you earned it, you never told me how skilled you were at lance." Robert continued.
"I didn't know I was. I just practiced a bit with Ser Barristan." Naruto spoke, while he tried to drink from the large horn filled with mead that his father had given him, but Robert began patting Naruto on the back and Sansa had to watch Naruto with pity as he clearly had trouble drinking, while Robert kept laughing loudly.
"Modest too!"
As the night proceeded Sansa began felling her eyes weighting heavily, the clock was far past her usual time for bed and Arya had already fallen asleep besides her with her face down on the table, but the music and nobles walking around in the beautiful clothing and the stories they spoke, along with the music, to Sansa this night was too magical, and she was afraid of sleeping it away.
She looked over and saw Naruto speak with Ser Loras and his uncle Renly, they shared a few laughs together and when Naruto walked away, she could weakly hear Ser Loras, mentioning to Renly that he wanted Naruto to join the two for something, though she didn't quite hear what.
Her lips tightened into a tightline, when she saw Joffrey take a seat next to her, where Jeyne had sat before she returned to the Red Keep. "My lady, I've trust you've enjoyed the day?" Joffrey asked with a small, sweet smile.
Sansa was thankful Arya was sleeping, otherwise she might ruin this, like she almost ruined her day with Joffrey at the Trident. "Yes, my prince, it's been a wonderous day, I've never set my eyes on a tourney before." Sansa answered honestly, returning the princes smile with the finest she could put on herself.
"Of course, I too had been looking forward to entering the joust, but sadly my mother wouldn't allow, a future king shouldn't go risking injury in foolish games." He spoke, his tone remaining proud, though his words did confuse Sansa a bit.
"Of course, I'm sure if you had participated, you would have won it all, my sweet prince." Sansa spoke, while Joffrey puffed himself up.
"I probably could, I would have let my dog win it this time, but my brother has been quite lucky today, well I suppose my brother does ride a horse quite fairly, honestly though it's more luck, Naruto has been riding from right to the left all day and his opponents have always had the sun in their faces." Joffrey spoke trying to downplay Naruto's accomplishments, and once more Sansa did hide her confused thoughts behind her beautiful smile, there had been plenty of men who had won that had ridden from the other side all day as well, like Ser Jamie and Ser Loras.
"I think Naruto rode very gallantly." Sansa spoke, but quickly regretted her choice as words as the smile left her beloved betrothed's lips.
"Naruto!" Joffrey yelled out loudly, surprising Sansa and some nearby nobles, she threw a small look at her little sister Arya and was surprised when Arya was still sleeping, her eyes then found Naruto who had clearly noticed the yell for him, it looked like he was in the middle of a dance, with a beautiful woman with olive skin and a long thick braid, Sansa couldn't make out who it was, but she could tell the woman was a bit more mature than herself or Naruto and from the skin color told Sansa the woman was most likely dornish.
Naruto offered his dance partner a small bow and kissed her hand, excusing himself before he began making his way towards Sansa and Joffrey.
"You called brother?" Naruto asked and once more Naruto came prepared, even though he was tired from today's jousting in the warm sun covered in steel, his lips steeled themselves into an unmoving smile.
"My sweet Lady Sansa, here says you rode gallantly today." Joffrey spoke, without any hint of his joy in his tone, but Sansa quickly found Naruto's eyes on her, "you think so, I thank you Sansa that means a lot to me." Unlike the stiff smile he gave his older brother, the one Naruto used when he spoke to her, felt much more genuine and Sansa did feel her face turn a bit warmer, perhaps the wine was finally getting to her.
"How long have you been practicing with the lance though, dear brother?" Joffrey continued, while Naruto bought up a hand to his chin, he released a small humming sound to let Joffrey know he was thinking over the question. "I'll say about a month with Ser Barristan."
"So how come, you managed to out tilt some knights who have been practicing for years?"
"I suppose I've been lucky." The answer seemed to be the correct one as Joffrey grew a cocky grin, "see my sweet lady, it's not actual any real skill, my brother has just been very lucky today." Joffrey spoke and without a goodbye or allowing anyone to refute, Joffrey simply stood up and walked away, with a self-satisfied smile.
There was a small silence, Sansa looked a bit disappointed at how the end of her conversation with Joffrey had gone. "Sansa, are you still sure you want to marry Joffrey?" Her head snapping back to meet Naruto's face, she felt shocked by the answer, but even more so she felt worried, by the look of concern Naruto's face held for her.
"Of course, why wouldn't I want to marry him?" Sansa remained firm in her response, she observed how Naruto's concern turned into a soft smile instead.
"You're right, sorry for asking, did she drink too much?" Naruto asked as he looked to the snoring Arya.
"She's just a baby, who was it you've been dancing with?" Sansa changed subject eagerly.
"One of Prince Doran Martell's nieces, Nymeria Sand, I'm hoping to steal a dance from her older and younger sister Obara and Tyene as well." Naruto said as he threw a look over his head, making sure his dance partner was still available.
"Isn't Prince Doran here?"
"The man is suffering from gout. He isn't moving a lot and spends most of his time in a chair. I've had hoped to see Arianne Martell, but sadly her cousins told me she wasn't allowed to attend." Naruto said and Sansa instantly pitied Arianne, this was the most beautiful day of her life and she wouldn't want anyone to miss out on something like this.
"Well Sansa, you must excuse me, but I'm still in a festive mood." She was about to let Naruto walk away, when she found words quickly coming deep from her throat.
"When you're done, would you like to dance with me?"
Once more there was a small break as Naruto turned to look at her, "I love to."
With Robert, Next Day
It was the morning following the large feast and Robert, and Robert was a in a great mood, he had fucked the living shit out of one of the maids he had found last night as the feast was coming to an end, having given the woman a rumble so good, she might never be able to feel her poor husband inside of her again.
He had decided to participate in the melee, all the jousting yesterday had put him in the mood to carve in some breastplates and swing his hammer, he hadn't given the damn thing a good proper swing since the Greyjoy rebellion.
One of his squires went over to pick up his armor, he hated these two useless pieces of shits, he was surrounded by enough blondes already, one of them was Lancel, he could remember the name, only because of how stupid it sounded, the other one Tyg, Tyger maybe Tobert Lannister, he didn't care enough to remember the young boy's name, his wife came from a large family, too large.
"It won't go, your grace." Lancel spoke, his eyes damp the boy almost in tears, while Robert looked at him with impatient eyes. "To the seven hells, with both you, do I have to do everything myself?!"
"It's not the boy's fault you're too fat for your amor:" Robert's eyes quickly meetings his friend Ned's.
"Fat? Fat is that how you talk to your king?" A shark and boisterous laughter quickly followed deeply from Robert's throat.
"Well, you heard him, the king is too fat for his armor, go fetch the breastplate stretcher! Out both of you!" The two young blonde boys running out of the tent as fast as their legs could carry them.
"A breastplate stretcher?" Robert and Eddard both shared a small hearty laugh.
"Hopefully those shits will be gone all day." Robert said with a grunt as his laughter died down.
"… I've been told you plan on fighting in the melee." Ned spoke, letting Robert know the reason for the visit.
"Aye, my blood is pumping, you saw my boy yesterday and he will be in there too, imagine the fight, the king and the prince fight, the smallfolk would talk about the story for hundreds of years!" Robert spoke eagerly.
"… Aye, you and Naruto, but what about the others, doesn't it seem a tad unfair?" Eddard could see the question did confuse Robert.
"What do you mean, the others can come if they want to, they can try and hit me as they want, but in the end the last man standing…"
"Will be you." Eddard finished his sentence, "there's not a man in the seven kingdoms that would dare hurting you, well Naruto might give you a good punch, but beyond that I doubt it." Eddard spoke and Robert's face quickly grew red in rage.
"Are you suggesting those cravens will let me win?"
"Aye, they will."
There was a moment where Robert looked like he was about to throw a fit, his head turning completely red and then he simply deflated and with a large groan he fell down on his chair.
"Damn it Ned, you're right, you're always right… Look at me damn it, this is what kinging has done to me, too fat for my armor." Robert spoke with a long drawn-out sigh escaping from his mouth. "I've should never have become king, you or Jon should have taken the damn throne, you would both have been better at this." Robert continued.
"You had the better claim." Eddard spoke referring to Robert's grandmother Rhaelle Targaeryen.
"Aye and look where it's gotten me, the most uncomfortable seat in all of Westeros and five blonde Lannister children… Not Naruto though." Eddard raised a single eyebrow, and he could hear the remorse in Robert's voice.
"The gods were cruel, when they made Naruto my second son, he had the heart of a true stag, not like the others… Hahahahaha, you saw him last night didn't you Ned, it almost looked like the boy was trying to court every one of those girls from Dorne.
"Prince Doran's nieces, yes I saw him dance with them, he always has been fond of meeting new people." Eddard spoke remembering Naruto's time in Winterfell.
"In my heart I know Naruto would make for a better king, still I can't disinherit my first born." Another long sigh escaped Robert's lips, "tell me Ned, tell me of my boy, I barely know him, you've had him more than me, what did he do, does he have any bastards in the North?" Robert asked and Ned did seem surprised by the sudden interest Robert had in Naruto.
"Naruto always has been talented and a harder worker, whenever he struggled with a subject, I most disappoint you though, I've never known Naruto to be one to visit brothels, my own son Robb often went with Theon Greyjoy, but Naruto I suppose he is more pious as such." Ned spoke, but he could see the answer didn't satisfy Robert.
"In the last few years, my wife Catelyn suggested to me that Naruto should use more of his time at prayer, as he seemed to grow close to the gods, Catelyn herself seemed quite eager to teach the young prince more of the gods. A few people even reported that they could hear the prince loudly praise the gods from the bottom of the tower where the sept was located."
Robert let out a grunt, "sounds boring."
With Naruto
"By the fucking seven!" Naruto praised the seven loudly as to thank them for the wonderful cunt his cock was currently plunged deep into, moaning and the deep sound flesh upon flesh filled Naruto's tent, as he was having fun with there still being an hour, before the last three jousts.
In the tent with him, where Obara, Nymeria and Tyene all of them completely naked like himself, his hands currently holding on tightly to Nymeria's hips while taking her from behind, his lips in a fiery duel with Tyene's and his fingers were busy as the thrusts deep into Obara's womanhood.
It had honestly never been Naruto's intention to bed them, Naruto while having been tired yesterday, he couldn't say no to a good party and had lots of fun, he had simply spotted the three available women last night and wanted to ask them for a dance and had wanted to build good relations with them, Tyene was the beautiful and fair, Nymeria was the elegant and agile and Obara was the strong authoritative one.
Surprisingly enough it had been Obara, that Naruto would end up with, it had grown late and most guests had left the feast, Tyene and Nymeria too, while Naruto had stayed and talked with Obara, the subject had fallen on weapons of choice, when Naruto had offered to spar against her with a spear, she had offered to sleep with him if he could win, maybe it was the alcohol or maybe she was just arrogant and believed she couldn't lose or maybe she didn't believe Naruto had any desire to sleep with her.
While it was true Obara wasn't beautiful or elegant as the two sisters she had arrived with, she had her own unique charm, that appealed to Naruto, and when Naruto had swept her off her feet with the bottom of his spear, he had wasted no time, in escorting her back to his tent for a long rumble.
He had enjoyed watching the strong prideful warrior, being turned into a moaning maiden, as he had pushed her down on the ground and taken her right there, she had let out the same soft whimpers as Catelyn had used to as he began playing with her brown nipples, despite being by far the most muscular woman Naruto had ever slept with, when they first had gotten started Naruto didn't see her as much stronger than Catelyn or Jeyne.
After the tumble, she had given him a warm kiss, before parting ways and then this morning she had returned for more, but she had brought her two younger sisters along with her, because neither of them believed Naruto had been as hung as Obara had told them and right now Naruto was in the middle of showing them how true the stories were.
Raising his left hand up high, he imprinted his hands on Nymeria's ass, her legs quivering her walls tightened around Naruto's cock as she reached her climax, pulling his cock out, Nymeria released a disappointed moan. Naruto wasn't anywhere near done yet though, "Tyene your turn." He spoke firmly, his chest already glistening with sweat, but the adrenaline was running high, Nymeria sat down and sprawled out in a nearby chair, heaving for her breath after the amazing tumble.
Naruto easily lifted up Tyene in his arms and let her down on the nearby table, throwing away the tableware and jugs of water on the table, letting it fall to the ground, while Tyene fell down on her back, he didn't want to waste any time, as he quickly guided his erect manhood, up against Tyene's folds, but stopped with a small gasp.
Looking down he saw Obara had crawled in between his legs, her lips playfully suckling on his scrotum. "I swear, you dornish girls, are taught some freaky, but amazing shit." Naruto said, his voice trembling a bit as Obara managed to take one of his orbs into her mouth, her lips forming a tight vice around it, while her tongue licked around it.
"Obara, the prince can't move like that." Tyene spoke, having easily the softest and gentlest tone that Naruto had ever heard, her voice, being a great gift from the gods along with her beauty.
Slowly Naruto did manage to move forward, Obara never letting go with her lips still tightly sealed around one of his orbs, while Naruto began penetrating Tyene, even her moans were like gentle music, as his cock spread her folds wide and he sank into her warm wet walls, that hugged his manhood tightly.
Reaching down Naruto grabbed both her apple sized breasts, his eyes fell on her red wine kissable lips, and leaned down to captured to them with his own, like before Naruto and Tyene's tongues battle against each other's, while the moaned and grunted into each other's mouths, a small gasp escaped Naruto's lips when he felt Nymeria had recovered from her round and had joined Obara in her actions as she had captured his other testicle.
Naruto did his best to ignore, the extremely pleasurable warm feeling surrounding his scrotum, if he thought to much about the girls, both down beneath him sucking on his balls, while he was making small powerful thrusts into Tyene, it was enough to send any man over the edge and Naruto refused to cum even once before he had given all three their own orgasm and Tyene was the only one left.
"Ah ah ahn ah!" Pulling back from the deep kiss, Tyene's moans began filling the tent once more, while Naruto moved down and began sucking powerfully on her pale neck just above her collarbone, "My pri-ahn I'm almost ugh there!" Feeling more motivated than ever before, Naruto moved his hands from her cute breasts and moved them down to Tyene's hips, holding them tightly moving her body back against his own thrusts, his cock hitting deep and powerfully with each thrust.
Finally, with a loud soft moan, Tyene's back ached upwards and her walls tightened around Naruto's cock, pulling out of her Naruto barely managed to take a step backwards as Tyene's two elder sisters were still busy beneath him, Tyene recovered from the rumble much faster than Nymeria as her rumble with Naruto hadn't been as aggressive as the one Nymeria had gone through.
Turning over on the table, Tyene was now on her stomach and she quickly crawled towards Naruto with a playful glint in her blue eyes, as she captured Naruto's already throbbing cock in between her soft lips. "Ooooh I can die happy like this." Naruto spoke, while throwing head back, his muscles tightened and his fingers and toes all curled, while the three girls mouths worked on his cock.
It didn't even last a minute, before Naruto gave up. "Fuck can't hold on," he grunted out and he moved his hands down and grabbed Tyene pulling her off the table, the girl stumbled as he feet quickly touched the ground beneath her, he also moved away from Obara and Nymeria, who looked at him annoyed, but when they saw how wildly his cock throbbed, they understood why.
"Move in close together." His voice giving them a quick and powerful command, the three half-sisters, did move in close, all three of them closed their eyes and opened their mouths wide. Naruto grabbed his cock and began pumping it, while he moved closer. Tyene was the first one as she felt Naruto's seed spray across her forehead and drip down on her nose lips, next was Nymeria, who was thankful that she had closed her eyes tightly as the cum splattered across her left eyes and cheek and finally Obara, who got the last bits splattering across the middle of her face and lips.
Naruto slumped back against the table where he had fucked Tyene on, his hands resting against the warm wood to support his own weight, Obara who had opened her eyes and saw the cock still hovering in front of her face, saw the remaining cum slowly seeping out of the glans and moved in and took his cock between her lips.
"Oh, fuck that's good, the maiden show me mercy." Naruto moaned out as he enjoyed Obara sucking out the last bits of cum from his dick, he looked on amused when Nymeria had grabbed his shaft, his cockhead having popped out of Obara's mouth, as Nymeria stole it and began sucking on it herself.
He stood there, for only god knows how long and looked on with a satisfied smile as the three women in front of him took turns sucking on his cock. "I don't think I've ever heard about this great a warmup for a joust before." Naruto said as sweat fell from his chest and head, the girls ignoring him still more focused on his cock.
"Girls it's been fun, but I really need to get my armor, the tourney will begin again shortly," Naruto spoke as he didn't know how long till they began again, he would have to ride against his uncle Jamie, but Loras and Gregor would have the first round of the day and whoever won between Naruto and Jamie would have to fight one of them in the finale.
"Tyene, give it back, you can't have it all yourself." Once more Naruto was ignored.
"Well, maybe just a few minutes more." Naruto spoke to no one, but himself, as Nymeria and Tyene began licking the sides of his shaft, while Obara went further down fitting more of his cock deep into her mouth hitting the entrance to her throat.
"FIRST JOUST OF THE DAY SER LORAS AND SER GREGOR CLEGANE!" A large voice outside broke Naruto's pleasure filled haze, "what already?!" Naruto yelled in a mix of confusion and shock, then he would be up at any minute and he didn't have anyone to help him with his armor, he handled that shit himself.
"Girls, I've gotta go, like I really gotta go." Naruto spoke with a small bit of panic in his voice, but once more he was ignored and Naruto for a small second was wondering if the girls had even heard the loud voice just yelling outside.
Thankfully Naruto knew a sure fire way to end a good oral session, it always worked with Catelyn, he moved his hands down and grabbed Obara's wild brown hair and forced her head forward, his cockhead pressing in deep and powerfully against the entrance to her throat. "UMPGH!" Obara choked and when Naruto released her hair, she fired back off his cock and released a long series of coughs.
"Asshole!"
"Ah, sorry girls, but I've really gotta begin getting into my armor, perhaps we could continue this some other time, like maybe after the feast tonight?" Naruto asked eagerly, as he had taken a strong liking to the sandsnakes.
Nymeria was the first one to stand up, Naruto's eyes quickly observing her form, her olive skin and long slender legs, her round tits, still hanging out beautifully and Naruto already found himself wanting to fuck her again, while pulling on her long thick hair that was tied into a long braid.
"Well, I could consider granting you the honor or me and my sisters company, but only if you win today, does that sound fair?" Nymeria spoke, not even bothering consulting her sister, before she made an agreement on her sisters behalf.
"Well, if that doesn't motivate me, nothing will." Naruto asked honestly as he begun getting dressed in his armor, while the women walked around naked inside of the tent and grabbed water and a nearby bowl of water and began cleaning away the semen on their faces, the women finishing up well before Naruto, "we shall be cheering for you from the stands." Tyene spoke, while Naruto gave a gracious bow as thank for her sweet words.
"I'm gonna fuck him again whatever he win or lose, I want another go on that cock." Tyene spoke, her beautiful gentle tone not matching her vulgar language.
"Me too, I just wanted motivate him a bit," Nymeria spoke giving Tyene a small wink, "I'm surprised that you're the one who would snag him up first Obara." Nymeria continued looking to her only big sister, who simply raised an eyebrow at her question.
"Just because I'm not a small delicate maiden like you sister, doesn't mean I can't get horny as well, and he won our bet fair and square." Obara spoke referring to their duel with spears last night, she would almost go as far as to say Naruto was as skilled as her father with a spear.
"Born as a prince, only fifteen years old, gifted with extreme martial prowess and hung like the stag on his banner, to say he has been smiled on by the gods, would be a big understatement." Tyene said with smile and Nymeria and Obara had to agree.
"And handsome too."
"A shame we couldn't bring Arianne or Elia, both would have been smitten by him I'm sure, Sarella too perhaps." Nymeria spoke.
A little while later Naruto had managed to arrive to the first joust in full armor on top of his steed and watched Ser Loras unseat Ser Gregor, the large man hitting the ground with a loud bang.
Naruto could hear the people cheer, talk and yell loudly, Ser Loras being widely loved by the smallfolk. "My sword!" The large yell of Ser Gregor got him the attention and a young squire did quickly come running, Naruto watching skeptical, unsure of what Ser Gregor was planning, his face turned into one of disgust as Gregor clearly blamed his horse, when he raised the sword up high and with a powerful downward slash he almost cut right through the horse's thick neck, the horse collapsing to the ground instantly.
Naruto had hoped that would be the end of it, but when Gregor kept on marching with his fingers firmly clutching his sword began marching down the list towards Ser Loras, horrified gasp and screams could be heard beginning to form, Naruto wanting nothing more to jump in the way, but he hadn't brought his sword.
Loras managed to bring his shield up, just as the mountain made a broad swing knocking Loras off his horse, before another swing could follow, the hound jumped in a caught the blade with hid own, the two brothers sharing powerful swings.
Despite the shouting and screaming that quickly began filling the stands and long line with smallfolk, still one voice could be heard booming largely over the others. "STOP THIS MADNESS IN THE NAME OF YOUR KING!" Sandor Clegane fell down on one knee and Gregor's swing found nothing but air.
"Get him out of here, get him out of my city, I never want to see him in another tourney again!" Robert kept on roaring, while Gregor stormed off, puffing himself up, the king's guard, allowed him to pass through as ser Gregor was now effectively banished from King's landing.
Slowly the madness died down as the excitement died and the next joust could take place. "Prince Naruto Baratheon against Ser Jamie Lannister! Both men rode down to the end of the list and awaited the signal to begin, the weak sounds of people making last minutes bets could be heard.
Naruto lowering his visor, grabbed the tourney lance and lowered it, when the signal went off, his armor legs gave a small kick to the side of his steed, which gave him a small wrench before it went into a strong gallop, his uncle Jamie quickly riding against him, both aiming their lances at each other and when the large impact was heard, it was Naruto who was watching the sky.
His ass remained in his saddle though, while Jamie had found the first strike, having his shoulder powerfully, another loud cheer resounded through the stands as Naruto managed to regain his seat.
It was his mistake, partially due to the fact that he hadn't gotten a proper night's rest, but had spent it partying and fucking, while his uncle Ser Jamie was well rested and prepared, feeling the pain in his shoulder where his uncle's lance had hit him Naruto forced his senses to sharpen.
And once more the two galloped against each other and once more wood splintered, but this time it was Jamie who landed in the dirt, he must have fallen in a weird fashion, as his helm was turned around and when he had hit the ground it had bulged, so Jamie couldn't get his helmet off, the smallfolk roaring with laughter as a blind Ser Jamie had to be escorted off the grounds to the nearest blacksmith to get his helmet off.
And then it was time for the finale, Prince Naruto against Ser Loras Tyrell the Knight of the Flowers or so he was at least called, due to the roses patterns that covered his green shining breastplate. Both met in the middle in front of the king's stand and shared a quick firm handshake as a sign of good sportsmanship.
They would need three rounds, before the winner was found, during the first tilt, both lances split and both Loras and Naruto seemed as it they were about to be unseated, before they managed to regain their seat, during the next tilt it was only Naruto that landed a solid thrust against Ser Loras, once more Loras fought his way back into the saddle, much to Naruto's frustration and then finally in the third tilt, both lances had split again, Loras had fallen first, while Naruto had managed to hold on to his horse for a few more seconds before he too fell down on the ground.
Both Naruto and Loras had quickly risen to their feet, neither of them having seen when the other fell. "Winner Prince Naruto Baratheon!" The announcement was filled with confusion in Naruto's mind as he had to understand the words, looking towards the stands, he saw the knight and nobles had all risen to their feet during the final tilt, truth be told, he had forgot about all of them, during his joust with Loras.
Raising a single fist into the air, he was met by a thunderous applause, Naruto had never felt anything like this as the small folk began cheering his name and great lords and ladies of the realm applauded him, he could even hear his father yell loudly with pride. "Your grace your horse." Naruto turned when a young boy maybe a few years younger than himself brought his horse back to him and Naruto climbed back on top of it.
He was then handed a crown and once more he felt his mind going blank, he had forgotten everything about crowning a queen of love and beauty, but as soon as he held the beautiful crown, he could sense both the joy and anxiety from the crowd, all of them still remembering what happened the last time a prince crowned a queen of love and beauty. He was hoping he could have given it to Either Arianne Martell or Margery Tyrell, but both were absent, Arianne wasn't allowed to come by her father and according to Ser Loras Margaery was at Highgarden with a fever.
Slowly Naruto upon his steed began making his way towards the stands, he wondered who should receive it. He considered Jeyne, but it wouldn't do, their social standing was too different, it would be like a king giving a crown to a servant, he considered one of the Sand girls he had bedded, while bastards yes, they were nieces to the prince of Dorne and bastards were not discriminated against in Dorne, but this wasn't Dorne, besides while he did play with the thought of crowning Tyene, he didn't want to sadden Obara or Nymeria.
"Sansa wasn't possible either, she was betrothed to his brother, Arya was too young and could start some hurtful rumors, the same thing could be said if he tried to give the crown to Samui, no he needed someone else. Someone all of them could see him attempt to court, close to his own age, not promised to anyone else, somewhat high birth and beautiful and then he did notice her, and he felt stupid for forgetting about her for even a moment, she fitted all of the criteria perfectly.
Among the crowd many disappointed small whimpers could be heard, from hopeful women, it was every woman's dream to be one day crowned as a queen of love and beauty, but being crowned by a prince, raised the bar even further, and many women who wanted the crown the prince rode with, did make small attempts to catch Naruto's eyes, a few on the front rows even leaning forward and exposing a good amount of cleavage before his eyes, but they were all left disappointed.
"My Lady, would you do me the honor of being my queen of love and beauty?" Naruto asked with many eyes turning to the young woman he had asked, who seemed just as shocked as many other, many lords and ladies quickly began gossiping about who this woman was, clearly, she was of high birth as she sat up high in the stands, just below Princess Samui.
She was the only one from her family present at the tourney, her small family banner with a black background and a white sun imprinted on it hang out among the countless other banners, she was tall and skinny, her skin was as pale as the North where she had been born, , her brown hair that usually went down past her shoulders had been weaved into a braid, her lips were pale witch only matched her already pale complexion, her eyes that were usually icy blue likes Samui's, but they had grown damp as she was looking at the crown presented in front of her.
"It would be the greatest honor, your grace." She spoke as she accepted the crown and placed upon her head.
Naruto had crowned Lady Alys Karstark as his Queen of Love and Beauty.
END OF CHAPTER 4 TOURNEY
AN: Ugh for a moment there, I thought this chapter might have become longer than chapter 1, it didn't though, but it definitely filled more than I was prepared for and I still haven't written the melee or archery competition, though those will be a lot shorter.
I'm somewhat worried my pacing might be a bit too slow, but it should begin picking up when we reach the next chapter, when the real court intrigue begins, when the news of Catelyn's abduction of Tyrion reaches King's landing, honestly though the court intrigue was one of my favorite aspect of the Tv show, sadly it left in the last few seasons.
Also, the reason why I've yet to confirm a harem list, is because I prefer surprising people, of course the people tagged in the story are guaranteed, but I prefer keeping the cards close, the same goes for any future abilities Naruto may or may not receive.
Anyway, if you enjoyed, then please leave a review and let me know what you think! :)
