Chapter 2- Children of the Dragon Slayer
Eret, Son of Eret I
Eret, Son of Eret, walks down the deck as he checks on the new Dragon Net catcher on the ship. Looking at the long chain wrap around a metal pole, attached at the end is a metal net.
Eret, son of Eret was the son of hill tribe's men of the Vale, Eret being the son of one of it hill tribes leaders, the Burn men, he was a young boy down at the beaches of the Vale mountains.
The Burn men went to catch fishes for the tribe, Eret went to help his tribe by catching the most fishes. But he and other hill tribe men and women were captured by slavers.
Eret tries his best to save his fellow hill tribesmen, but he too was captured. The Hill tribe men feared the worst, as slaver taunts the men and rape the woman in front of them.
Hope was almost lost to Eret, until the slaver shouted in fear, they all shouted in fear as the slave ship was rammed by another ship.
Eret looks from his cage to see armour men with horn helmets killing and capturing the slavers. Eret watches as the slavers beg for mercy, offering the woman and men from his tribe for free.
Eret was mad at the gutlessness of these slavers.
Until he saw him.
A well-built man matching his intimidating face, wearing a scaly like cape, has his long silver hair and beard in thick braids. Multiple scars run over his face and body, one hand holding a scary looking spear as all the slavers shit themselves at the notice of the men.
Dregon Targaryen, the exiled prince, the Dragon Slayer.
They beg for mercy from him, but Dregon was silent, glaring at the slaver to shut them up.
Before turning to the hill tribes, ordering his men to free them and offering the slaver to them.
The hill tribes are more than happy to return the Slaver hospitably
After getting there justice Dregon offer them the ship while he took other stuff from the ship.
But many like himself own the man from rescuing them from a fate worse than death, they swear loyalty to him.
Eret, son of Eret raised to through the ranks of Dregon's army, the Sellswords the Trappers.
Now Eret, son of Eret, is Captain of one of Dregon's 4 main ships, Dreadnoughts, ships made with dragons' bones and magic.
The Bewilder, the others being the Deathgripper, The Red Death, and the Cannibal. Named after the largest dragons Dregon has killed.
"A great weapon is it not?" A voice calls out, making Eret signs as he turns.
"Oh sure, a new metal chain we need to check every day, what would your father say?" Eret said, giving the device a kick as short stubby legs walked up to him.
A Dwarf-like teenager walked to him, wearing dragon scale leather and pants, on his belt was short knives, with a crossbow and short axe on his back, he possessed silver hair and deep blue eyes, with a rather handsome face for a dwarf.
"He would say if it captures a dragon alive then he'll make more" the dwarf spoke with pride as the new Dragon Net Catcher.
This is Maegor Targaryen II, 10 name day, eldest twin son of Dregon Targaryen and Lady Clara Belmore, he was born the oldest of twin boys.
And suffers from dwarfism.
"Oh I'm sure he would, and you get that next ship he's making the Bravos, a big ship for a small man" Eret taunts, looking at the chain as the men work around the Bewilder to keep everything running.
"Was that a short joke? Do you forget how valuable I am? All of Essos wants me" Maegor spoke with a smile, Maegor being a Valyrian dwarf is beyond rare.
"As a slave or a sacrifice, get that magic dwarf cock" Eric chuckles at nearly every slaver wanting to capture and sell Maegor for his blood and looks, Valyrian blood said to have magic, and so do Dwarf cocks apparently.
"Guess again Eret, now some noble ladies want to keep my cock and my handsome face" Maegor smiles at him, getting a laugh from Eret.
Dregon's children all ride the Dreadnoughts, each one learning the ropes and being one of the crew, Dregon wants his children to learn from the bottom up.
Maegor learns how to tie a rope, sail and clean the deck, hard for his size but he makes due.
Especially learning how to capture and kill dragons.
Eret promised Dregon to show Maegor everything he knew and to test out the new Dragon Net Catcher.
"Now we need a dragon to catch today" Maegor said, looking around the sea, hoping to catch a dragon around them, Eret smiles at the young man.
"Oh I doubt any dragon would be around Braavos" Eret points out, learning on the bone like rails, watching Maegor with amusement.
"Coming from the self-touted ' 'Greatest Dragon Trapper Alive'' Maegor points out, out of all of Dregon's Captains, Eret captured the most dragons compared to everyone else.
"And proud of it, how lucky are you to learn off me" Eret brags about himself, teaching the dwarf son of his leader.
"Yes, very lucky to learn off an arrogant and cocky whore, tell all the ladies of your dragon conquest" Maegor points out, making Eret smile back.
"All the whores love my tales, you can stand to learn a thing or two" Eret said, but Maegor shakes his head, still looking around the sea.
"Women and men love my cock too much, it's good luck to suck a dwarf's cock you know" Maegor jokes, but Eret rubs his hair.
"I thought you got lucky by rubbing a dwarf's hair?" Eret asked with a knowing look.
"It's better luck to suck mine, double magic of course" Maegor presents his size.
"Yeah big balls for such a small man" Eret taunts him, but Maegor doesn't react, Eret looks to see Maegor looking out the horizon.
"You sure you don't want to suck my dick?" Maegor points his finger to a far away, Eret squints his eyes to see a large flying dragon heading there direction.
"MEN, DRAGON ON THE WEST" Eret shouts, all the men on board get ready, Maegor runs to the Dragon Net Catcher.
"This one is mine" Maegor grins as he starts to pull the metal lever to pull the Net chain up, as he aims for the long neck dragon while Eret rubs Margor's dwarf hair.
"We need all your luck Maegor" Eret said, getting as much luck as possible, you never know how dangerous hunting dragons are.
As the Bewilder starts to turn around to aim at the dragon heading to Braavos.

Daemon Targaryen II
Daemon Targaryen flies across the Narrow Sea on Caraxes, nicknamed the Blood Wyrm. Daemon is flying to Braavos to find his way to his exiled brother.
Daemon frowns, recalling his brother while riding his dragon Caraxes.
Daemon can't help but be disappointed in his younger brother, his fear over dragons, the very creatures that put the Targaryens in the throne in the first place. Daemon remembers training his cripple brother how to fight, seeing he needed to learn how to fight with one hand.
Daemon was more than happy to help, hated how people looked at his brother for what happened to him, a cripple prince they called him. Daemon always scared those people talking about his younger brother, no one talks down to a Targaryen, even a cripple one.
The cripple part is something Dregon is going to get used to, there Father and Grandfather gave him the finest prostates, multiple ones too with weapons on it, Daemon smiles at the memory of fighting his brother with a sword for an arm.
Daemon loved his young brother, he loved his drive to not let what happened to him stop him, he and Viserys tried to help him as best they could.
But that one thing neither Daemon or Viserys could help that one thing holding Dregon back.
His fear of dragons.
No Targaryen had this fear, something none of the Targaryen's know how to deal with. Viserys didn't have an idea of how to deal with his fear.
But Daemon had an idea, to beat your fears you need to confront them.
Daemon recalls dragging a young Dregon to the dragon pits, the King took everything that look like a dragon away from Dregon. That's was the problem, keeping Dregon away from dragons won't make him feel better.
Dregon needs to face his fears head on.
Daemon takes his brother to his dragon Caraxes in the centre of the Dragon Pits, everything was under control, Caraxes was his dragon and the dragon handlers were around.
As soon as Dregon saw the Caraxes he freaks out, tries to run away but Daemon caught him, slowly trying to get him to at least meet Caraxes but he bites his hands, before running back to the Red Keep.
Daemon was disappointed for his brother, not to mention the talking down from his family about scaring Dregon.
But now the Daemon thought about it, he shouldn't have done it like that, he should have handle it better then showing him Caraxes right away.
Daemon just wanted to help his brother overcome his fear and bond with a dragon like the rest of his family,
Daemon's first experiences with dragons was his dear mother Alyssa Targaryen took them flying on her own dragon when he and Viserys were very young.
Sadly Dregon first experiences is even younger and a baby dragon took his hand, scaring him for life.
The Targaryen tradition now changed with the Dragon's egg being at the cradle, they still do it but now with Dragon handlers will always be nearby encase the egg hatched, so they don't lose another baby or dragon. Daemon really wants to help his younger brother.
When Daemon learns about Dregon asking questions about dragons, he, like the others, was more than happy to answer, hoping it would get him to ride a dragon.
The questions were basic, what they eat, how hot is there fire, can you cook food with dragon fire?
Such questions were simple enough to answer.
Until they are more disturbing, What do dragons fear? What kind of poison works on them? Can they breathe fire with their mouths wet? Are dragons more dangerous without their wings carrying them.
Such questions disturbed the Targaryen, none wished to answer or even want to find out, and that didn't stop Dregon from researching it himself, learning from a distance and talking to the dragon keeper.
When asked for a few eggs and a dragon from his grandfather the king at the time, king Jaehaerys called out on his oppression and banished him for it.
Daemon was at first happy to see his brother leave, hoping to never let him near their dragons again
But it didn't stop Dregon, he turned to hunting dragons himself, starting with Cannibal, the largest and most dangerous wild dragon, known to eat other dragons.
Many try to tame it only to be eaten, but Dregon wasn't there to tame him.
No he killed the beast, something no Targaryen would ever do.
Daemon knows it's only wild dragons Dregon hunts, but how long until he takes his hate to tame dragons, the Targaryen's dragons.
Daemon is now worried others will use Dregon's hate for dragons to attack the Targaryen's throne, manipulating his hate to target the family that banished him, Daemon could imagine the Triarchy or hell that cunt Otto Hightower pointing at Daemon's dragon.
No Daemon will not let his brother become someone's pawn to attack his family, his older brother is already tied down to his crown to see the snakes and cunts controlling him.
Daemon wants to get his brothers back.
Caraxes roars, shaking Daemon from his thoughts as he looks to see his dragon looking scared.
"What's wrong?" Daemon shouts, the wind blowing in his face as he tries to see what got Caraxes so scared.
Daemon looks over to see something in the distance, a ship. A very large ship, big enough for him to see it compared to other ships he saw from high in the sky.
Getting curious he guides his dragon down to get a closer look at the very large ship. Driving down Daemon seeing dragons all his life can tell this ship is built with dragon bones, seeing dragon like wings on the sail and the body and head of a once mighty dragon on the front of the ship, with ballista all around it, Daemon never seen before.
These must be Dregon's dragon bone ships.
While Daemon disapproves of Dregon using dragon bone he can't help but admire the design of it.
Before he could get a better look, lowering Caraxes, the ballista all turned and fired large Nets at him, making him turn Caraxes to avoid it.
"Hold on Caraxes" Daemon shouts through the wind, driving down to avoid the net as he tries to get closer to the bone ship.
Hoping to see his brother and find out if these ships can take down a dragon.
Daemon smirks as he avoids the rope launching at him and Blood Wyrm, Caraxe roars as he turns around to avoid another net flying at them.
"Is that your best?!" Daemon shouts, hoping they hear him, dragon riding has become rather boring for him after so many years flying, but avoiding nets is the most fun he had while flying Caraxe.
Before Daemon could shout for his brother who he assumes was on the ship, Caraxe roars in pain as Daemon holds himself when Caraxes shifted around.
"What's wrong?!" Daemon shouted, Caraxe roared as he flew around in different directions, Daemon turned back to see the net wrap around the back of Caraxes back.
"They hit your legs!" Daemon looks concerned, Caraxe struggles to fly as he gets lower to the sea, while they miss the winds Caraxe legs are just as important in flying, adding extra weight to the legs and ropes wrapping around his lower wings.
Making it hard to fly, Daemon tries to see what he can do.
"SHIT" Daemon swore, trying to get Caraxes away from the ship.
SHOOOOTTT
RRRTTTTTTTT
Daemon looks to see a large metal chain like net coming at him and Caraxes.
"OH FUCKK" Daemon shouted, Caraxes roar in distress the metal chain net wrapped around Daemon and Caraxes, Daemon gets tied down to his dragon with the metal chain pressing down on him, Caraxe roar in pain with the chain net wrapping around his head.
With both his legs and head tied up the dragon and rider start to fall from the sky.
Daemon screamed as they fell from the sky, Caraxes roared as they both crash landed in the water.
SPLASHHHHH
Daemon struggles to move and breathe as Caraxes starts to sink into the sea, Daemon tries all his might to pull the chain like net off him or get the Dark sister out, but it was not used, too pressed down and can't breathe.
Daemon slowly starts to breathe in the water, his eyes closing in the dark abyss of the sea, sinking down the Narrow Sea.

Maegor Targaryen I
Maegor smiles as he shoots the Dragon Net Catcher, catching and wrapping up the red dragon attached to the ship.
Watching the red dragon crashing in the sea, the metal chain staining on the ship as everyone braces as the ship stays afloat with the chain still holding.
"IT WORKS!" Maegor cheers as does everyone else.
"Pull the chain, let's put the dragon in" Eret orders, and sailors and other men slowly pull the chain around the mast of the ship.
Maegor smiles at the capturing the dragon alive, a problem that his father had to deal with, whenever they kill or capture a dragon they would land in the sea and sink down, his father and his men have to fish out the large dragons out of the water.
But this new artillery will capture dragons alive and chained to the ship without sinking.
"My father is going to love this" Maegor gets excited at his father loving what he made.
Being the son of an exile prince has its benefits and disadvantages, better still his father has gone more than your average man, much less a exile from Westeros.
Dregon Targaryen was a hard man, an intimidating man to most people, even dragons fear him.
But not to Maegor, his father always was there for him and his family, Dregon gave him the name of a cruel King from his family history.
When Maegor asked why his Father said this.
"Maegor the first was a cruel man and a hard king against the seven Kingdoms, but without him we wouldn't be here, he destroy the faith of the Kingdoms and insure the Targaryen's remain after his father's conquest, your already stronger than most my son, being a dwarf under me, I gave you that name to prove you can be better than the first" Maegor spoke to his son, as Maegor the second nods to his father.
From there Maegor proved he be better than his precursor name sake, learning all he can about Dragons from his father, learning the court from his mother and others, reading all he can and learning to sail from the sailors around him
Taking up his father's use to design weapons, Maegor asked his father to build the Dragon Net catcher after hearing him speaking about a dragon trapped under the sea and they can't get it.
His brother Aenys came up with another way to capture dragons as well.
Aenys is always copying his work, at least he changed it up a bit.
But what did he expect from his dim-witted 'big' brother.
Dregon made both weapons while he was focused on making his next Dreadnought, giving them a challenge to capture a dragon out in sea without losing it to the waters.
Both took the challenge and are ready to prove themselves to their father and everyone else, both made a bet on who captures a dragon alive.
And Maegor is excited he won the bet.
"See if Aenys caught his dragon alive, harpoon launcher" Maegor scoffs at his brother making his own weapon, no doubt copying his or his father's work.
"To be fair, Aeny's weapon was new too" Eret points out, helping the men pull the dragon in.
"Why must everyone always be against me, is it because I'm shorter than you all" Maegor calls out, getting a few laughs as he signs in good humour.
Taking every insult like water off a dragon's back, being a dwarf made him hear everyone's dwarf jokes.
ROARRRR
A small dragon voice is heard, Maegor turns to see a small green dragon fly to him.
"A my terrible terror, Nibbles, my only friend in this large world" Maegor pets the small dragon on his shoulder, Maegor being a Targaryen tame one of the few wild dragons not killed by his father.
Maegor names him Nibbles, for always chewing on everything, shoes, buildings, other Dragons, he will chew on anything and everything in sight.
Nibbles chips at Maegor giving him a pet before he starts to chew on his armor.
"Can't believe you name your dragon Nibbles, such a small name for a growing dragon" Eret said, the large red dragon is now coming on the deck as everyone starts to get ready to tie it up.
"It's a simple name, imagine a dragon so large, and his name is Nibbles" Maegor jokes at the name, petting his young dragon.
A large terrifying dragon name like a house pet, Maegor has his sense of humour.
"That is amusing, right everyone get ready, watch out for the jaws, and double knots this time, Steve" Eret warns everyone, getting the dragon is one part, tying down a dragon is the hard part.
Each of them has metal chains and hard ropes to wrap around the dragon.
The dragon lands on the ship, net like chain still wrapped around it, Eret seeing it still wet and tied from the swim.
"It tired from it swim, carefully take the metal net off" Eret orders, everyone quickly pulls the net chains off the red dragon as it groan in exhausting,
Then they start to notice a saddle on it.
"Eret this one has a saddle" One of them points out, getting the two to look.
"And a rider" Another shouted, a silver haired man fell down.
"Of fuck me, a tamed one, dammit all" Eret curse, seeing this is the Targaryen tame dragon, not a wild dragons.
Dregon forbid them trapping tame one, family owning thing, Eret see the dragon starting to move.
"What are you waiting for, tie it down or it will kill us all" Eret shouted, getting everyone to shake their heads. Eret jumps over the dragon's large head, wrapping the chain around its mouth to stop it from biting.
The red dragon struggles as everyone dog piles on top of him to tie it down.
"That it, it is weak from the water, tie it down, now" Eret orders, the men wrap ropes around the wings and tail, keeping the dragon in place while said dragon struggles to get out, still tired from his swim.
Meanwhile Maegon went to the rider, seeing him pass out.
"Shit sorry about this" Maegon apologised, seeing he nearly drowned this Targaryen, going on his knees he started pressing on his heart, pumping it to get the water out.
"Come on, come on rider" Maegor pants, doing to his mouth to breath air in,
"A little help here" Meagor orders, a sailor goes to him, helping by pumping the Targaryen chest while he breathes air into his mouth. Another takes out the Targaryen weapons and other things on his body.
The standard way to get sea water out of his lungs and stealing from a potential corpse.
"Come on BREEEE come on BREEEe '' Maegor breathed deep to blow air into the stranger's mouth, the stranger gasp spitting water out and coughing.
HHUah HAHUH
The silver-haired Targaryen coughs out the rest of the water as he takes a deep breath of the sweet air.
"Nothing like drinking sea water to make you appreciate the air stranger" Maegor points out, the men gave the Targaryen some room to breathe.
The silver haired stranger turns around to look around, taking time to breathe deep as he tries to recover himself.
"What cough cough, what is this?" The silver hair stranger asked, looking around, seeing a handsome dwarf with a small dragon and pirates tying up his dragon.
"HEY, GET AWAY FROM CARAXE YOU CUNTS" The stranger shouted, going for his sword but notice it was missing, turning to see others holding his weapons, Eret laughs getting his attention
"Ha no can do dragon rider, you see Braavos wants no new dragons flying around here, not seen the last time" Eret said, tying up Caraxe, the rider was about to charge but everyone pointed their weapons at him, stopping him in his tracks.
"I'm Prince Daemon Targaryen, heir to the Iron throne, killing me would enrage my brother the king of the Seven kingdoms" Daemon Targaryen introduces himself, so this is the rogue prince.
And his uncle, Eret laughs jumping on the deck.
"Oh pardon me, your royal ass, didn't your king get the letter, no Dragons over Braavos" Eret said, pulling out his dagger to point at the prince.
Daemon sees a man pouring sleeping potion in Caraxe's face.
"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING!?" Daemon shouted, seeing Caraxe closed his eyes.
"Relax princess, just some sleeping potion, the dragon is fine and alive" Eret calls out, Daemon looks over to see his dragon is only asleep, making him calm down a bit.
"I'm only here to see my younger brother, '' Daemon said, looking around but stopped to see a handsome silver haired dwarf with a dragon.
"What's wrong my prince, never seen a dwarf before" Maegor asked, getting a chuckle from a few people.
"How did you tame that dragon? And natural silver hair?" Daemon asked, looking closer at Maegor and his dragon.
"That would be my Valerian blood, helpful for women and dragons" Maegor smiles, getting a few laughs even Daemon smirks a little.
"Who are you?" Daemon asked, wanting to know.
"I'm Maegor Targaryen, Son of Dregon Targaryen and this is Nibble '' Maegor introduced himself and his little dragon, Nibble did a little roar in greetings, to Daemon's shock.
"You're my nephew? A dwarf Targaryen? And my brother names you Maegor?" Daemon was beyond confused at his newly discovered nephew.
"Yes, Father thought it would be funny that I would continue the name of the cruellest king of Westeros" Maegor smiles as everyone laughs, Daemon looks confused at him.
"So Princess Daemon, what brings you and your dragon to the direction of Braavo" Eret calls out to the prince, asking why the prince was here.
Daemon shakes his head.
"I'm here to see my brother, nephew? the king, your other uncle is willing to give Prince Dregon his complete forgiveness and welcomes him back to his court" Daemon said, looking at his brother's son with interest.
"Really? Complete forgiveness, didn't your old king, my great grandfather apparently banished him for, how long now?" Maegor looks around , thinking about it, getting smiles from everyone as he plays with his dragon, Daemon reach for his pocket and gives it to Maegor,
The paper is a little wet but still readable. As Maegor opens the seal.
"Ok, so Uncle Daemon, what made my other uncle King Viserys remember he had another brother? Are you still mad about wild dragon hunting, cause my father told us not to target any tame dragons" Maegor figures, looking at Eret who nods.
"Too much trouble to steal a large pet, wild dragons are more challenging" Eret grins, everyone nods or cheers at him.
"That's the issue, sadly we need his help" Daemon said to himself, looking at his nephew.
"You suffering from wild dragons, hahaha" Maegor smiles as he looks at the note before turning to his uncle,
"I doubt my father would take this uncle, he is really busy" Maegor said, looking at him, Daemon smiles.
"Come on Nephew, do it for family" Daemon tries to say to him, trying to use a family relation.
"For family, yeah that would be funny" Maegor chuckles to himself and to the others.
"Of right, let 's see my father, welcome to the Bewilder Uncle" Maegor welcomes, making Daemon smile.
"Thank you Maegor, now can you release Caraxe?" Daemon asked, but Maegor shook his head.
"No can do my princess, your dragon still can't fly in Braavos," Eret grins, Daemon turns to glare at him.
"Caraxe is my dragon" Daemon threatens, trying to scare him.
But Eret and Maegor laugh.
"Nice, a little more narrow eyes and you can be intimidating" Eret laughs at him, walking away, as Maegor laughs, Daemon looks at him.
"Uncle, my father's glare at wild dragons, you think that scares anyone here" Maegor smiles at him, the dragon gives him a look at him.
"Can I get my weapons back?" Daemon asked, looking to get something back.
"No, you get it after the journey, don't want you releasing your dragon" Maegor said, giving his dragon a pet.
"Oh this is Nibbles by the way" Maegor introduces him, the little dragon roars at him.
Everything Daemon has seen, that makes him chuckle.
"Nibbles? You name your dragon nibbles?" Daemon smiles at the name,
"No one would expect a big dragon to be called Nibbles" Maegor asked, scratching the dragon back while Nibbles started biting his sleeves.
"It stills a baby" Daemon points out, not seeing a big dragon.
"For now, what till he grows up, fear the dragon Nibbles" Maegor shows off his dragons, making Daemon smile in amusement.
"I'm surprised my brother would even let you have a dragon," Daemon states, recalling his brother's fear and anger at the dragons.
"Oh don't worry uncle my father has all but conquered his fear, if anything dragons should fear him" Maegor smiles, walking forward with his uncle following, looking at the Dragon net catcher.
"Dregon made this?" Daemon asked, but Maegor shakes his head.
"I did actually, Father wanted to capture dragons alive, me and Aenys designed weapons to capture them, We're heading back to prove I'm superior " Maegor speaks with pride, but that didn't get Daemon's attention.
"Aenys?" Daemon asked.
"My twin brother" Maegor said,
"You have a twin dwarf brother?" Daemon asked in surprise, oh twins aren't new, rare but twin dwarfs.
"No, unlike me, but brother was born to be human" Maegor waves off, unlike some only he suffer the life of the dwarf, his brother was tall and strong.
"How is that possible?" Daemon asked, oh how that is possible indeed.
"Only the gods know the wonder of the human body, I was born a dwarf while my brother was born stupid, hope the next one is better" Maegor jokes, walking to the back of the ship with Eret holding the wheel.
"Next one? How many siblings do you have?" Daemon asked, wondering.
"There's me, my tall but stupid twin brother Aenys, the other twins Shaera and Baelon, and mother is pregnant with another child" Maegor counts his family members.
"Five kids?!" Daemon spoke in astonishment,
"Oh yes, Dregon is quite a love maker, Set the Sails, were heading to Braavos' ' Eret orders, turning to Daemon.
"And you, Princess, just stand there and look pretty and we'll get along fine" Eret smirks, turning the wheel as Daemon crosses his arms.
Maegor smiles as the Dreadnought turns around, heading straight for Braavos, with not only a dragon but his Uncle as well.
Maegor can't wait to see his family's faces.
Meanwhile Daemon thinks about his new nephew, or his brother's family, three boys and one girl, plus another, Daemon is more curious about his brother's life.
Daemon wonders what his older brother Visery would say learning about Dregon's brood.
