AN: I like to think I have a plan for most of the stuff I'm writing, as for the last bath scene some of the reviews pointed out that it may have been Samui's genjutsu, which it may or may not be, making people question things and reading between the lines is one of the reasons I love A Song of Ice and Fire so much.

Chapter 7
Father
With Sansa
Once more another day had come and passed, the sun had left the sky above King's landing and inside the tower of the hand Sansa along with her friend Jeyne and the septa sat at the dinner table and were eating, tonight the menu was mostly fish, which wasn't to her liking, thankfully there were also many different fruits and breads on the table.
"I can't believe father didn't allow Ser Loras to go, it would be just like in one of the stories a gallant knight like Ser Loras, slaying the evil beast that's the mountain." Sansa spoke, while nibbling on a piece of bread.
"You shouldn't question your father's decisions Sansa." Septa Mordane lectured, while Sansa rolled her eyes.
"I heard some of the men talking about how he should have sent Ilyn Payne, as he is the king's executioner." Jeyne said as she reached in and grabbed the jug filled with water.
"The correct title is the king's justice." The septa once more lectured and both girls had to repress an annoyed moan, the septa could never just call things for what they were.
"Shouldn't Arya be here soon?" Sansa asked, knowing very well that for once the septa would agree with her and get up to look for her, the septa excused herself leaving Sansa and Jeyne alone at the table.
"How's things with Naruto?" Sansa asked curiously, she still didn't approve of the relationship, but she had to admit all the sneaking around Jeyne did at night did make Sansa a bit curious and excited, a small part of her did find the idea somewhat romantic.
When she had asked Jeyne's, eyes fell a bit though and Sansa felt like she just asked about something she shouldn't, honestly Jeyne should have expected this, she was just a steward's daughter of course it was only temporary.
"Well, it's going alright I suppose, it's just…" Jeyne began in a small sad tone, while Sansa thought she might have to comfort Jeyne as the girl did start to sound somewhat sad in her tone, Sansa bought the glass of water up to her lips.
"His dick is too big."
"UGHK!" Sansa choked on the water.
"I mean it's amazing, but I feel so useless, like he's always doing everything and I'm just laying there and I'm exhausted after it and then he asked me the other night, if I can go for a round more, I thought her was insane, but he was still hard." Jeyne explained.
Sansa had bought one hand up to her mouth to avoid spitting out the water in her mouth, while still coughing madly from the shock, she could swear Jeyne was too different after she had begun sleeping with Naruto.
Sansa finally managed to get her coughing under control and swallow the water in her mouth, before she was finally able to say something that was burning on her mind. "They come in different sizes?"
"What does?" A new voice let itself be known as Arya came running up the stairs.
"Hey where has all the guards gone?" She asked another question before her previous one had been answered.
"They went with Lord Berric to kill Gregor Clegane." Sansa said as her mood quickly falling when she saw Arya. Once again, her little sister was covered in dirt and bruises after having spent another day with the braavosi dancing teacher. She must be a terrible dancer, but at least her little sister had finally shown interest in a more lady like activity.
"Will they kill the kingslayer too? They should since he attacked father." Arya stated in a matter-of-fact tone, while also growing an angry look when she remembered the incident.
"They can't kill him he's the king's brother-in-law, besides it was just a misunderstanding, soon mother will get the letter to release the imp." Sansa said as she defended Ser Jamie, which only served at annoying her little sister.
Sansa placed her focus back on her plate and didn't even see the devilish smirk Arya suddenly spotted and suddenly Sansa felt something warm and wet hit her forehead, looking up in shock she saw Arya with small smile as she had flung some soup at her she had gathered into a spoon. "Arya!"
"I swear I can't take my eyes of you girls for a single moment." The septa spoke as she returned to the scene, while Sansa was yelling insults at Arya and Jeyne agreeing it was Arya's fault.
"Enough, your father has sent word for you, go to his chambers." The septa spoke, usually she would lecture Arya in situation like these, but if she didn't then it was because it was urgent.
"I will have to go and find another dress. I will be there shortly." Sansa excused herself while Arya began heading to her father's study.
Having chosen an emerald green down, the same color as when she had been at the tourney, she joined her father in his study, Arya sitting in front of his desk, while their father kept a large leather book on the desk that seemed to take up more than half the space.
"Sansa, take a seat next to your sister." She did as he asked, curious as to why they had been summoned, usually these talks could just be done at the dinner table.
"The two of you might end up driving your poor septa mad." He started off with saying and Sansa instantly sent her little sister a small glare.
"She started it, she ruined my dress, it was a gift from the queen, she gave it to me the day I got betrothed to Joffrey." Sansa spoke fiercely, while her father gave a small, tired sigh.
"That's enough, that's not why I've summoned the two of you, I'm sending you both back to Winterfell."
"You can't!" Arya protested.
Sansa on the other hand fell short of words for a few seconds. "Please father, please don't I love it here." Sansa managed to say though her tone was already trembling.
"Oh, so the two of you can actually agree on something." Eddard said with a tiny hint of amusement.
Sansa stood up from her seat. "Please father, I haven't done anything wrong, I'll swear to you we won't fight anymore, I will be courteous and noble just like the queen." She promised desperation inside her tone.
Eddard pinched the bridge of his nose. "Sansa enough, I'm not sending you away for fighting, I'm sending you away cause six of my men were killed not far from here and how the king responds, he goes hunting." Eddard said with a tired tone.
"I can't go I'm to marry Joffrey."
"Yeah, and I'm going to marry Naruto."
This time both Sansa and their father looked at Arya confused.
"What Naruto doesn't want to marry you." Sansa spoke a surprisingly bit of anger in her tone.
"Who told you that." Their fathers asked confused.
"I've talked with Naruto about it at Winterfell, If I have to marry someone then I want Naruto, he said he won't force me to wear dresses or learn how to sew." Arya spoke thinking to herself it sounded like a great idea.
"Naruto won't want to marry you, he's a prince and handsome too, he can marry anyone he wants to, but he doesn't want someone as small or smelly as you, he just says that to make you shut up and leave him alone." Sansa spoke fiercely, her emotion already high from the news she will be sent back to Winterfell.
"Liar!" Arya yelled back, followed by their father hammering a hand down on the desk, making both girls fall silent.
"You will both be sent back to Winterfell and from there you will both learn to get along." Eddard spoke feeling his daughters quarrel beginning to turn his hairs grey.
"But father please, I'm to marry Joffrey and I will become his queen, please father we will become the greatest king and queen there ever was and I will give him beautiful golden children." Sansa pleaded.
"Seven hells." Arya muttered lowly, their father's face that froze for a moment didn't give his thoughts away.
"Return to your rooms, I will look for a ship to take you both to white harbor tomorrow." Eddard spoke, while both girls looked dissatisfied.
As the door closed Eddard turned the great book on his desk towards the page describing the heritage of the family Baratheon.
With Naruto
The morning sun felt amazing along with the gentle breeze flying in from the sea, it washed over the small table he was sitting at.
"Tommen you got jam on your cheek." Samui spoke as she grabbed a handkerchief and wiped the young boy's cheek, much to Tommen's annoyance, they were having breakfast at the table, servants coming and placing plates of fresh fruit and bread, there sat a total of five people at the table Naruto, Samui, Myrcella, Tommen and to fill out the spot that had been meant for Joffrey sat Alys Karstark as the eldest had refused to join them.
Still as Naruto looked at Alys, he had to admit her company was preferable over that of his elder brother, when Eddard and Jamie had fought in the street, he had to admit his mood took a turn for the worse, so he and Alys never went riding together as they had planned, he would have to make sure they did so another day.
"Mother loved the painting, she kept starring at it when she visited me." Naruto spoke, while Samui was giving him a small smile.
"Well, I did the best I could from what little I've ever heard of grandmother, for my next painting I should try at our father's parents." Samui spoke, while Naruto returned her small smile, he had been amazed when Samui had given him the painting even more so when she claimed to have painted it herself.
"Can you teach me as well. I would love to paint like you." Myrcella spoke hopefully, while Samui gave her little sister a sweet smile.
"Of course, you are more than welcome to join me, Alys please remember we need to get more paint." Samui spoke while Alys gave a polite nod with her head.
"Naruto do you have any plans for today?" Samui asked and Naruto looked thoughtfully for a few seconds.
"Naruto promised to practice sword fighting with me." Tommen stated, while Naruto opened his mouth and gave a small sound. "Ahh." So that's what he had forgotten, he was sure there was something he had to do today, but he had forgot.
"Well, if you can postpone that slightly, I wouldn't mind giving Alys the rest of the day off, poor girl looked so sad when you canceled your riding date." Samui spoke while Alys began blushing fiercely.
"Your grace." Alys said while looking down, though Naruto didn't let it get to him, instead he was looking away to the open plain, while Tommen and Myrcella and the servant walking back and forth looked upon the scene of the direwolves playing.
While most people had seen them by now, they still preferred to stay far away from the large wolves that were playing, giving them plenty of space, Naruto have had both Tommen and Myrcella pat them, though that was long ago now and now Tommen did seem a bit afraid of them.
They had grown quite the attitude that mirrored their owners, with Nymeria being far more playful and active and Lady being calmer and more prideful, while Naruto had mounted Nymeria and rode around on her back in the garden, Lady wouldn't allow it, not even for Sansa, she was too prideful to allow anyone on her back.
"Sure, sounds great, I would love to bring the wolves with us, gods now they need to stretch their legs." Naruto spoke again referring mostly to Nymeria, while Lady could play and run, she was far tamer and preferred being patted and scratched above running wild.
"Of course, I wouldn't mind at all." Alys said with a sweet smile.
With Cersei
She didn't understand this place, she found it terribly dull, then again, no gods ever really spoke much to her as she was out in the gardens near the weirwood tree, in the Red keeps, godswood a place dedicated to the first men, where they could pray.
"Your grace." Lord Stark spoke as he is approaching her, she threw him a small glance.
"Lord Stark, may I ask why you've summoned me and to this place specifically?" She asked, her tone calm and sweet.
"So, the gods may watch we say, "Eddard answered as he took a few more steps before he was in front of her. "I know the truth, that killed Jon Arryn." He spoke, while he stared at her hoping for any change in facial expression but found none.
"Speak plainly Lord Stark, I did not come out here all this way to answer riddles." She answered.
"Very well, I'll be blunt then, are any of your children trueborn of Robert?" He asked and once more she remained stoic, not shying away and not showing any fear.
"No, thankfully not, I was once pregnant with one of Robert's, but Jamie took me to a woman who cleansed me." She lied, once more her face, not betraying her, but Lord Stark seemed skeptic.
"Naruto has stayed with me at Winterfell for almost 10 years, I've had him longer than you." He spoke and Cersei felt herself filling with anger, she did not have to be reminded of that fact.
"And I grew up with Robert in the Eyrie, while some of the traits have eluded him, I do see a lot of Robert in Naruto, his boisterous laughter and his carefree personality." Eddard spoke.
"Believe what you must, it makes no difference to me, they are my children that's all that matters." Cersei stated firmly. She couldn't allow him to know that Naruto was Robert's, if he did the man would do everything in his might to make Naruto the heir, the plan to kill Robert had already started, she wouldn't allow this man to set Naruto and Joffrey up against each other.
"How is that possibly, what did Robert ever do to you, that made you hate him so much?" The man asked and Cersei calmed her nerves.
"Me and Jamie were always fond of each other, ever since we were little, one day my father told me I would marry Rhaegar Targaryen, I still remember how happy I was the day he told me, I must have drawn a thousand pictures of me and Rhaegar, suddenly Jamie was just my brother." Cersei started off. "Aerys Refused however and the prince married Elia Martell, then the rebellion happened, and I got to marry Robert, I didn't know much of the man, but I was ready to try and love him, but on our wedding night he had climbed on top of me and as he went inside of me, he whispered Lyanna, the next day it was Jamie who came to comfort me and together we had Joffrey that day." Cersei had spoken nothing but the truth her face remaining stern.
It was Lord Stark who had to avert his eyes. "Truly I pity you." Eddard said in a low tone
"Save your pity I want none of it, all I need is my children." She spoke.
"You know what I must do." Eddard said.
Cersei raised a single eyebrow, her green eyes looking carefully at the man before her. "Must? Nobody is forcing you hand, it's true we didn't get off on the best terms, but it's not too late, your daughter and my son will marry, be my friend Lord Stark and you won't regret it. Lannisters always pays their debts." Cersei offered.
Lord Stark thought the offer over for three seconds." When the king returns from his hunt, you need to have left King's landing, along with your children, except Naruto." He spoke and for just second, she took on a surprised expression.
"You will not separate me from my child again." Cersei stated hotly, her anger slipping through her tone.
"I will present the truth to both Robert and Naruto and if me and Robert agree that Naruto is his trueborn son, Samui too shall be allowed to come back to King's landing, but for you and the rest of the children, run away, run far away, the free cities, to the summer Island or Ibben, just go far away, Robert's wrath will always follow you." He stated, while a small cold wind blew through the godswood.
"Naruto is mine, he will never allow you to send me or the other children into exile, you may have had him for some years, but he was never yours." Lord Stark's face remained unchanged. "Imagine this could have all been yours, my brother told me of the day King's landing fell and you forced him to give up the throne, you could have claimed it all for yourself that day, such a sad mistake." She spoke, while Eddard looked thoughtfully.
"I've made many mistakes, but I do not count that as one of them."
"Oh, but it was, when you play the game of thrones, you win or you die, there's no middle ground." With that she decided to take her leave, hoping her children were still gathered at the table in the garden, she wanted to see their faces right now.
With Samui
Myrcella watched amazed as her elder sister painted, multiple times it looked as if Samui were about to ruin her own beautiful painting, but she merely kept adding beautiful details upon the canvas, as the picture illustrated a bustling street in the middle of King's landing.
"I can't do that." Myrcella stated, while Samui gave a small smile.
"Neither could I when I started off, I was just bored and felt like trying to paint something, anything and after many attempts, they begun to look pretty." Samui stated, while Myrcella carefully walked over to her own canvas.
"What should I draw?" Myrcella asked.
"Anything you want, you can try and paint me, Naruto, Tommen, our entire family or something completely else, like the keep, the city or the Kingswood." Samui stated as she remembered Naruto and Alys were off riding through the woods right now.
She wanted to keep Naruto happy, her memories were still a weird muddy puddle of information, hopefully one day when Naruto reclaims his memories of another world, he could give her some answer, she looked forward to seeing how the world would change when Naruto awakens, if he learns to use the power that radiates off him, the entire world will kneel to him.
"I think I've made a mistake." Samui was cut off from her thoughts, by Myrcella's words, her little sister looking unsure at her canvas.
"Don't worry there's no mistakes, just happy accidents."
Loud knocking on the door took both girl's attention away from what they were doing, usually it was Alys who would answer the door for Samui, but seeing as she was off with Naruto, she took the steps over and opened up, surprised at seeing her mother standing there. "Samui sweetie, you must come at once, Myrcella you too, come here." Cersei spoke as she spotted Myrcella in the room, Samui could hear something was wrong.
"Mother is something wrong?" She asked, while Myrcella also seemed curious.
"You father has returned from his hunt, injured." Cersei spoke, while her daughters followed after her.
"Oh, is that it, what did he do slip from his saddle and break his ankle?" Samui asked, having already lost interest, she didn't care about her father.
"The dying kind of injury." Cersei stated and Samui fell silent very quickly, while Myrcella looked shocked.
"Father's dying?" The little girl asked shocked.
They didn't have to wait for long until they reached the chambers, outside stood Preston Greenfield and Mandon Moore guard with solemn looks, while Barristan sat further away his armor bloody with the King's blood still fresh.
Entering the room, Samui's first thoughts were on the stink in the room, it was unfamiliar to her, yet she somehow felt as if she knew it. "The stink of death, my girls come closer." They heard their father call and Myrcella grabbed Samui's hand tightly.
He was bandaged and covered with a blanket, his face was as pale as milk though and he looked weak, unlike any of the girls had ever seen him before. Cersei took some distance, more people were well on their way, but for now it was only them.
"Stinks of death, it's my own fault truly, your father's a big of an idiot." Robert said and Samui could hear the weakness in his tone, it was weird, she didn't care for him, but she still found this scene shocking.
"Are you dying dad?" Myrcella asked carefully, Robert never had the best relationship to any of his children, none of them too used to speaking with him.
"Aye… I'm dying, I'm sorry girls, sorry for not having been a better father, to both of you." Robert spoke tiredly, it was clear that the wound bothered him.
"Of all the ways one can die, I didn't expect you to go like this." Samui stated and Robert forced a small laugh.
"Me neither dear, must have drunken too much… I know you're both not used to hear this but, listen carefully cause it's the truth and I want you both to remember long after I'm gone. I love you, both of you, with all my heart." Robert spoke, while Myrcella looked down and Samui felt a weight gather in her mouth and her eyes beginning to moisten.
"It's my dying wish that both of you find a great husband, who can give you the love and appreciation that I never could." Robert said while Samui while Samui felt a mix of anger and sadness boil in her.
He was too selfish, he was a drunken whoremonger, who never attempted to be part of her life, how could he be this selfish as he was dying? And why did tears begin falling down on her cheeks? Why did this hurt as much as it did? She couldn't understand.
Cersei showed no such sentiment, but she did feel saddened when she saw her daughters' pain. "Samui, Myrcella wipe your tears, others will soon arrive, and they can't see your tears." Cersei spoke as she handed both girls a handkerchief, which they used to wipe their eyes.
Only a few minutes later more men began storming into the room, Joffrey being among them. "Father." He spoke in a low tone.
Robert did offer his eldest son a small smile. "What of Naruto and Tommen?" He asked weakly.
"I will send word for Tommen if you wish, but I thought him too young to see this, as for Naruto he's sadly away riding with Alys Karstark." Cersei informed the weak Robert, who gave a small chuckle.
"Chasing skirts, like his old man."
With Naruto
They had eluded the guards, mother would most likely scold him when he returned, but having an escort of 50 people quickly got tiring, especially when he wanted to enjoy some time along with Alys alone.
They had ridden for over an hour through the woods, the sun light barely escaping through the tall trees and leaves, they had ended up at a small clearing, with a small river in front of them and were laying on a patch of green grass.
Naruto was on his back, while Alys laid on top of him, their mouths pressed together in a strong kiss. They had spent the time talking and laughing and once more Naruto had found himself captivated by Alys beauty and when she had made a move on him, he found himself unable to hold back any longer and had kissed her.
They had spent over half an hour in this position. "mm Naru chu." Alys moved back, looking down, on Naruto while her long dark hair fell down around the edges of Naruto's face.
"Will you marry me?" She asked.
"I will ask my father, as the first thing when we get back." Naruto replied with great smile, falling in love was a beautiful thing truly, he remembered his first crush being Lady Catelyn and while she still held his heart, the more time he spent with Alys the more in love he was falling again and he loved it, his heart beating this fast and strong, her beautiful face just above him and looking down on him.
He bought his hands up and cupped her cheeks and moved her pale lips back down on his own, lips as pale as winter, yet burned as warm as a summer day.
A large thud bought both love struck teenagers out of their trance.
"Can't you see we are busy?" Naruto asked amused, as Nymeria was watching them both intensely as she had dropped a large stick in front of them, Alys gave a small chuckle as she saw the large direwolf looking hopeful at the two of them and then down at the stick.
Alys slowly climbed off Naruto who grabbed the stick and threw it away the large wolf happily running after it, they spent another happy hour at the serene location, while watching the wolves run around and play.
When it was time to head home, both wolves were muddy and bloody, mud from playing around and bloody from their hunting. Naruto instructed both wolves to jump into the river quickly and clean themselves up and Lady did so without a problem quickly waddling into the river and back up and began shaking herself her fur almost completely clean, though knowing Sansa she might still get annoyed. Nymeria proved more trouble though as she laid herself in the grass and refused to enter the water, so Naruto had to resolve to try and roll the big wolf into the river, Nymeria whimpering the entire way.
Their ride back to King's landing went fast as Alys challenged him to a race, and he had to realize he still had a lot to learn about riding as Alys sored past him, leaving him in the dust.
"It's all my muscles slowing the horse down." Naruto said while Alys gave a small pretty laugh as she was waiting near one of the eastern city gates, riding into the city, the commoners quickly made way not wanting to get in the way for the large wolves on their heels.
They had barely made it to the Red keep and handed their horses over to the stable boys before guards came running. "Your grace!" They yelled instantly getting Naruto's attention, this was a rather rare sight.
"Yes?" He asked, while stepping forward Alys keeping close to his side.
"We've been instructed to inform you, that your father his highness King Robert has been gravely injured during his hunt." The guardsmen spoke quickly, and Naruto didn't hesitate.
"Where is he?"
When he arrived, he saw several men gathered outside his father's chambers, their solemn looks gave him a good idea of just how grave the situation, he was happy he didn't bring Alys along, having sent her back to her chambers before he arrived here.
When the men saw Naruto, they all changed their expression to a more saddened one. "Your grace." They all offered with a small bow.
"Can I go see him?" The question was directed towards Barristan, while he looked at the blood on his armor.
"He's sleeping right now, Pycelle gave him milk of the poppy not an hour ago." Varys said, while approaching Naruto's side.
"How bad is it?" Naruto bought forward his second question.
"Honestly it's amazing enough he managed to get on his horse and ride back to the Red Keep, he's a tough man, my brother." Renly spoke up, though he looked ragged almost frightened even.
"Is there anything we can do?" Naruto asked his final question.
"I've heard stories of a healer in Qohor who is said to have perform miracles, sadly before we could ever hope to get word to her, I'm afraid it will be too late." Varys spoke calmly. While Naruto gave a small nod.
"They are suspicious bunch, the people of the free cities, sooner going over to dark sorcery rather than the knowledge of the citadel." Pycelle spoke almost as if having taken what Varys said as an insult.
"If father is sleeping, then I should go and spend time with my siblings, if he awakens, send word to me I wish to speak to him." Naruto said, while he was once more given several deep bows from the gathered people.
Naruto had dinner with his family for once Joffrey was there too, it was a sad and silent scene, without and smiles and with a somber tone lingering.
Naruto then withdraw himself to his chambers for the rest of the day and he did attempt to go to bed, though with no luck, he had already sent word for Jeyne that she shouldn't visit tonight, there was no mood for sex.
Instead, Naruto simply wandered aimlessly back and forth in his room, while the night had fallen and the stars were heavy upon the sky shinning down, he had no idea of late it was getting, but still no sense of tiredness fell over him and then there was a knock on the door.
He walked quickly over the soft myrish carpet, till he reached his door, who would be outside and what message would it be. He had been looking from his balcony at the bell towers, afraid that they might soon start, when all four sounded it meant that the king had passed, but no bells had sounded yet.
Would it be a message that his father had passed before they started the bells or perhaps his father had woken up and wanted to speak with him, the idea of not getting to speak a final time with his father did bother him a great deal, when he opened the door, he was a bit surprised when he saw Samui. "Sister, come in." Naruto said as he quickly moved away to grant her passage.
"I thought that you might not be able to sleep either." Samui said as she did notice Naruto had been quick at the door and fully dressed. She went over and sat down on the edge of his bed, patting a spot next to her and Naruto walked over and sat down beside her.
"Father may not be here tomorrow, how could I sleep?" Naruto asked with a deep sigh, while Samui leaned in and grabbed his arm.
"You know, when I was thirteen, I began to ignore father and avoid him at every turn I could after hearing him says my hair made me look like a Targaeryen whore," Samui confessed, while Naruto leaned in and hugged his elder sister. "And then for the first time in almost three years he spoke to me in the tourney, curious about the girl you crowned, he didn't even realize that I had been ignoring him for three years and then this happens, and he fires off some bull shit about having always loved me and then I begin to cry, it's stupid." Samui spoke.
"It's stupid how much we can hate family, but when they leave it always hurts, no matter how much you resent them." Samui admitted, while Naruto held her tightly.
"I don't hold the same resentment for father as you, but neither do I hold any love for the man, I guess it's the blood that we share that causes this sadness… Because the thought of not saying a proper goodbye is almost too much to bear." He admitted, his griped around his sister tightening once more and Samui turned around and grabbed her brother in a powerful embrace, both of them falling down on the bed together.
"We will always have each other, more than anyone else Naruto, it's you and me, no matter what." Samui spoke as their faces were pushed up against each other.
"Samui I…" Naruto began but fell silent.
"Naruto." Samui closed her eyes and moved her mouth closer, her lips not even an inch from Naruto's own, he could feel her warm breath enter his mouth before he pushed against them, his lips slowly placing over Samui's.
They laid in a silent embrace their lips slowly moving against each other, the room silent as a crypt.
"This is wrong Samui." Naruto stated having pulled away, their lips still barely touching.
"Yes, it is." Samui admitted as she recaptured his lips
They kept kissing for a solid minute before splitting apart once more. "You can have me Naruto, if you wish you can have all of me." Samui said her voice just above a whisper, as she got up and moved further up on his bed.
"You're truly the most beautiful women in all the seven kingdoms, but I can't, not tonight at least." He spoke while Samui gave him a small smile, that did well in hiding her disappointment.
Naruto did climb up and joined her, but in an embrace as they fell down on the bed once more, both them closed their eyes and a silence fell over them until finally sleep came to take them.
The next morning came too soon, the sun having barely dipped over the horizon turning the morning sky bright orange and red, but it was the sound on the wind that made Naruto grabbed a nearby pillow and push it to his ear, hoping the sound of the four bells would stop.
Throne Room
The throne was a truly ugly thing, standing tall in the big open room, forged with thousands of blades of Aegon's fallen foes, Joffrey truly looked small sitting on top of the throne, with his golden crown.
Dressed in his beloved golden and scarlet colors, while below the throne stood Cersei in her golden gown and her emerald tiara, below the throne stood six out of the seven kingsguard, with Jamie still away from the city.
The hall had already been filled with people who had come to greet the new king, but the official first meeting in the throne room with King Joffrey would soon take place as he had summoned all the members of the small council.
Soon the doors opened, and Naruto watched with tired eyes as the men of the small council came, escorted by a small sortie of guards, the castellan proudly presenting Joffrey's new titles.
"All hail King Joffrey of house Baratheon the first of his name. King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men. Lord of the Seven Kingdoms and Protector of the Realm!"
When the group had made the long walk from the end of the hall to the middle in front of the great throne Joffrey finally spoke, his voice ringing through the great room. "I command my councilors to make the preparations for my coronation, I wishes to be crowned within a fortnight. Today I shall accept oaths of fealty from my loyal councilors."
Naruto was watching it all take place from the side, Samui standing on his right, while Myrcella and Tommen were to his left.
"Ser Barristan, would you be as kind as to read this letter, I believe nobody in this room could ever question your honor." Eddard spoke while pulling out a sealed letter from his pocket.
The commander of the kingsguard took the letter and looked it over quickly. "King Robert's seal unbroken." Barristan declared and Naruto already had a bad feeling about this.
"King Robert of house Baratheon the first of his name. King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men. Lord of the Seven Kingdoms and Protector of the Realm. Hereby declares Lord Eddard Stark as protector of the realm until the heir's 18th name have come to pass." Barristan read the King's will loud and clear.
Joffrey looked unsure for a few seconds as he sat on the throne, while Naruto bit his lip, please let this play out calmly.
"Ser Barristan may I see this letter?" Cersei asked calmly and Barristan did step back and handed Cersei the letter, who without giving it a second glance ripped the paper in half and then in quarters.
"Was this supposed to be your shield Lord Stark?"
"Those were the kings' words and will." Barristan declared shocked.
"Samui take Myrcella and Tommen back to their chambers, a fight is about to break out." Naruto spoke, while Samui gave a nod and grabbed her two younger siblings, who protested a bit as they wanted to stay and see, both finding the situation exciting.
"We have a new king now, bend the knee and swear fealty to your king and we shall allow you to go back and live the rest of your life at Winterfell." Cersei stated loudly.
"Joffrey has no claim to the throne he sits upon." Eddard declared loudly and Joffrey quickly stood up on his throne.
"Liar!" His voice so loud and hitched screeching through the throne room.
"Robert's rightful heir and true king…" Eddard stated loudly and fell silent for a few seconds, he threw a small look up at Naruto who looked at the scene in shock and horror.
"Is Naruto Baratheon!"
END OF CHAPTER 7: FATHER
AN: Oh boy, this is my shortest chapter yet, still I feel like more happened in this chapter than in any other.
Hopefully this chapter also gave a bit more understanding into Samui's character and how she's emotionally connected to this world, despite remembering her old one, I also teased another Naruto character, though she won't be around for a long time still.
One of the reviews I got from the previous chapter also pointed out, how little Naruto's impact on the general story is and yeah, it's not massive I be the first to admit, he will of course become more active, but when there are certain things and scenarios in the future you wish to arrive at, then sometimes it's hard not to steer along the canon. That's not to say Naruto won't have an impact on the story, he will, but for now it's not much I admit.
And another thing I noticed in the reviews holy shit people hate Sasuke, but that's cool I don't like him either, I do have a plan for the brooding emo, though it's more of an easter egg, so don't worry I can promise right now, Sasuke doesn't hold a major role in this story.
How would you guys rank the seasons from worst to best, my own list is: 8,7,5,6,2,1,3,4
