The Trial of Tyrion Lannister

Tommen's POV

I really need to get some cushions for this damn throne! Everyone had taken up their places on the seats as my uncle enters the throne room in chains.

My grandfather Tywin Lannister wishes for me to stand down from the court today but I know once I do, this trial will become a farce and judge the moment I leave.

Everyone is waiting before I stand from my throne.

"Tyrion Lannister… you are on trial for the murder of King Joffrey" my words echoed throughout the throne room.

In the corner of my eye I can see my mother smirking and on the other side I can see my grandfather waiting to start his trial… my uncle Jaime came to see me day yesterday on the history of their hatred of uncle Tyrion… it all made sense when he finished, it was time for me to take the rain, I chose different judges.

I looked both sides to the judges my grandfather and mother chose and told them to rise before telling them to get lost, Margaery Tyrell took up her place next to my throne, I kept the leader of the dawn on as a judge… let the trial commence.

Readers POV:

Tommen and the other judges listened to the testimony from the man with the stolen poisons, Tommen couldn't remember his name and referred to him as scruffy git.

"Did you see him?" Tommen asked.

"Beg your pardon sire?" he replied.

"Did you see him take the poison" Tommen asked.

"Well no but…" Tommen cut you off "then how do you know it was him?" he couldn't find and answer for it and Tommen looked to his uncle.

"Did you take the poison?" he asked and Tyrion shook his head "no"

Tommen dismissed the bearded idiot on lack of evidence.

As the trial went on, he had either dismissed or kicked out anyone due to the lack of evidence.

Shea was next, the look in his uncle's eyes said it all, he loved her.

Tommen's POV:

After listening to both sides of the story unlike my grandfather would if he had taken my place in the trial… I ruled no evidence of Tyrion's involvement in the murder… to say my mother was not happy was an understatement.

I went to my chambers as she followed closely 'oh this is going to be good' I thought with a smirk.

My mother slammed the door shut "Are you insane!" she shrieked.

"I'm your son… doesn't that answer your question" I replied trying to hold my laughter in.

"He murdered your brother!" she screamed.

"Oh come on, yes he's a schemer but he has more loyalty than anyone else" I defended "he wouldn't kill Joffrey… sure he hated him but killing him… nope" I went to my desk and began to look over some reports.

"Joffrey wouldn't…" I couldn't take it.

"JOFFREY IS DEAD MOTHER!" I bellowed "he was a sadistic tyrant that everyone hated… even me… are you going to accuse me next" she shook her head "Send for Uncle Jaime" I ordered.

"Why?" she whispered.

"Because I wish to learn how to handle myself" looking to the sword in the corner "if I ever need to go to war, I will serve with my men"

She turned away before I called her "Mother" I said.

"Yes sire" she replied.

"Why lie?" I asked.

"I don't know what you mean?" she replied.

"You said that Joffrey was on the battlements when Stannis attacked" I narrowed my eyes at her "he wasn't, you ordered him to his quarters and like a good boy he obeyed" I spat out.

"You must be mistaken" she said and I shook my head incredulous "I may have been a child but I remember… Uncle Tyrion led the fight with honour, he bled while Joffrey cowered away" I was disgusted.

"You may leave" I ordered her.

I sat in this room waiting for my uncle Jaime to arrive, then I needed to talk to Tyrion.
