In the dragon pit,
The son of the mad king still lives, this was a shock to those in the dragon pit.
"Another dragon spawn!" screamed Robert.
"Your grace" Ned tried to speak.
"No, lord Stark, he is already calling himself King of Westeros. If my son doesn't kill him, I will" rages Robert.
Ned said nothing, the boy made his intention clear, he couldn't defend it.
"Who is this Ramsey snow, that calls himself the warden of the north" ask Bran.
"He is my Bastard" whispered lord Bolton, everyone was surprised at this but said nothing.
In the Flames,
The Inn was full of people, who came for their promised free drink.
The Westeros natives all sat in one table Arol had Colton put together. He had them properly introduce themselves to each other, It was a way to start the bonding process between them.
"So how did you arrive in Dakour?" a shy Gilly asked Samwell.
"M- My father and I with some of his man went fishing, I fell in the water and woke up here" answered a blushing Sam.
"How about you Lady Gilly" Sam asked in kind.
"Oh, I ran away from my vile father and fell, once I woke up, I was in dakour" she answered still can't believe she escaped her father's influence.
"you four are wildings?" ask Loras.
"We are the free folk, you southern shit" answered Tormund.
"Alright, my apologies, how did you three manage to find yourselves in Dakour" he continued.
"Fucking Thenns came at us on our way to a meeting, when we woke up, we were here." Val answered.
In the dragon pit,
The fact that wildings will receive such wealth did not sit well many in the dragon pit.
Lady Melessa Tarly glared at her husband, who wisely ignored her.
In the Flames,
"How did you Tyrells get here anyway?" asked an interested Quentyn.
"We were playing in the Gods wood, when a bright light surrounded us, and the next thing we know, we were in Dakour." answered Loras.
"It's the same for us three" Robb said pointing at Jon and Theon.
"I remember the bright light; my brother and I were in the Water Gardens, when we were struck." Added Quentyn.
In the Dragon pit,
"I remember this light." Said Orlena.
"What could have cause it, to strike children kingdoms away from each other at the same time?" wondered Tyrion.
"Someone was behind it, no doubt." Said the Blackfish, the others agreed with him, the question was who.
In the Flames,
"How about you Dany?" Margaery asked her friend.
Daenerys looked up from her plate of food, "me and my brother were attacked in Essos, Viserys told me to run as he held them off. One of our attackers manage to slip past him and tried to stab me, I jumped in a river and woke up in Dakour." she answered.
"Do you know who they were?" asked Mya.
She shook her head, dismissively, "No, could have been anyone, my family made a lot of enemies."
"I'm sorry you had to live through that." Bella said.
Daenerys smiled at her, "Thank you"
In the dragon pit,
"Robert did you send assassins after children?" Lord Stark asks with a disappointed glare.
Robert offended at the thought "Of course not, if I plan to kill the dragons spawns it will be with my hammer." No one else commented at the kings words.
In the flames,
"Bolton how did you get here?" Loras asked.
Domeric looked up at him, "I was coming home from visiting my Ryswell family, when a bright light struck my Horse, when I woke up, I was in Dakour." He answered and went back to his food.
"The same thing happens to me." Added Talissa.
"Where are you from Gendry?" Jon asks the only bastard boy in the group, breaking the silence. Arol has told him to overlook their first meeting as Jon would have done the same, he told Jon to get to know Gendry as they have more in common than he thinks.
"I was born in kings landing, flee bottom. My mother was a tavern wench. She was murdered by gold cloaks sent by the queen of Westeros, she tried to protect me, told me to run, the last thing I saw was Janos Slynt running her through with his sword. He caught up with me, I had a knife which I used to take one of his eyes, before I dove in the blackwater bay, waking up here." Gendry explains to Jon.
"I'm sorry for your lost." Jon said sincerely.
"Thank you" Gendry responded.
Robb turned to Mya and Bella, "is it the same with you two" he asked.
"Yup, I was born in the Riverlands, during the rebellion, Lannister man came to where my mother lived and they killed her, they would have killed me to, if I didn't fall in a river before waking up here." Bella said.
They all looked at Mya, she nodded before speaking, "It's the same story for me, but I was born in the Vale, when the Lannister man came, my mother barricaded our home, they burn it down with us in it. I only remember my mother's scream before I woke up here in Dakour" Anger lacing her every word.
"Do you really think the Queen sent those man" Domeric ask.
"Janos all but confessed that she gave the order, before killing my mother." Gendry said
"Once I return to Westeros, every Lannister from babe to elder will die by my hand, I will bring their keep to ruined until there is nothing left." he seethed.
"Enough Gendry!" Mya barked at her little brother, who went back to eating his food.
In the dragon pit,
Hearing how his Lannister wife almost killed his children, pissed Robert off, the fact that man that was supposed to be loyal to him did this, is unacceptable.
"Is that what you were hiding, you golden hair WHORE!" Screamed Robert, rushing to hurt the queen, only to be held back by Stannis, Jon Arryn and Eddard who manage to make it there in time to assist in restraining the King.
Jamies stood protectively Infront of his sister, hand on the pummel of his word, while Ser Barristan, the blackfish and many of the norther warriors there met his eyes daring him to draw his steel.
The situation was going downhill fast, the others where silently watching the event unfold, while the Martell's had huge smiles of their faces.
"Robert violence will bring us no good here" Jon Arryn urgently said to a struggling Robert trying to break free.
"Fine" Robert stop struggling and sat down still glaring at his wife.
"Spider!" Varys look at his king, "Your grace"
"Find all my bastard and if they wish send them to Storm end, they will keep Edric company." He ordered, shocking everyone in the pit. Jon Arryn and Stannis shared a quick look with each other, 'This will work to their advantage' they both thought.
"Onion knight, you will lead this endeavor, since my brother trusts you, I will to." he added, a shock Davos bowed and left with Varys to complete their task.
"Jon, when this is over, I want Janos Slynt brought to me, I will cave in his skull with my hammer." Jon Arryn did not have a chance to reply before Robert turned to Stannis.
"Stannis, I want every Lannister gold cloak sent to the wall or be executed, Renly will help you bring in storm landers, man loyal to our house to replace those traitors." He looks at the Lannister daring them to test him now, they said nothing. Everyone else just observed the kings wrath in silence.
Cersei glared at her husband, about to say something, Tywin stopped her before she made matters worse "You will still your tongue Cersei" he ordered her with a glare of his own which cowed her into submission. Tywin knew they had no allies here, everything he has worked so hard for, coming to an end because of his foolish daughter.
Tyrion was laughing, looking at his family, "it seems we are truly fucked father" he continued laughing.
In the flames,
The Baratheon bastards left the table and went to the counter to order drink, when something caught Gendry's attention.
A blonde boy with green eyes is telling people how he will be a powerful warrior when he grows up and fight against the dragon king, the adults started laughing at him.
Gendry comes to his defense, "The wishes of children are the future reality… Adults that; laugh at such dreams are no longer human." The whole Room was deafly quiet after that.
The boy looked at Gendry and approached him, "I wish to be your apprentice" he declared, surprising Bella and Mya.
Gendry looked at the boy, he could tell he has been training. "I have no need for an apprentice" he said, shooting down the young boys hope.
The boy looks sad, but then his face changed to stubbornness, "I challenge you to a fight" he said, shocking everyone in the Inn.
Gendry looked amused at the boy, "what will I get from beating a green boy" he asks.
"I will prove myself and show you that I have potential" the boy scowled at him.
"Very well, you land one hit on me, and I will take you on as my apprentice" Gendry said, he got up and they went outside, everyone followed them.
"What is Gendry doing" Bella asks her sister.
"I think he sees himself in the boy" Mya answered.
In the dragon pit,
They are amused at the young boys boldness.
Tywin couldn't help but notice the boys Lannister appearance, he looks like Jamie at that age. He looked at Jamie and then Tyrion, before returning his gaze to the flame.
In the flames,
Outside the Inn, Gendry and the boy were now inside a circle of people who wanted to see the boy beaten.
The boy squared up, fist raised, and a serious expression on his face, this made Gendry smile.
Without waiting, he charged at Gendry, Left and right hooks thrown at him. Gendry dodging each punch.
After a minute of relentless attack by the boy, Gendry caught one of his jabs, and hit him hard in the stomach, the boy fell to his knees holding his abdomen while trying and failing to catch his breath.
Gendry kneels in front of the suffering boy, "what is your name?" he asks.
The boy looks up at him, "Tyr" he manages to say, trying and failing to act like he was not in pain.
Gendry smile at the boy, "can you stand, Tyr", the boy struggles but in the end, he stands back up on his two feet, still clutching his stomach.
"Good, follow me" Gendry walked away, and Tyr followed. The crowd dispersed and went back to the Inn. Mya and Bella went back inside to order some ale.
In the dragon pit,
"The boy is a brawler, he lacks discipline, but with proper training, he will be a force to reckon with." Observed the Red Viper of Dorne.
In the flames,
Later in the day, Arol finds Gendry and the Boy in the training yard. He approaches his apprentice; Gendry notices him and respectfully greets his master.
"Master" he said with a bow.
"So, he is your new apprentice" Arol said as he stood by Gendry watching Tyr train. The boy was punching the living crap out of a metal wall, it was the same training Arol had Gendry complete to increase the potency of his Haki.
"And it seems he too possesses Haki" he added.
"He does, even though he can only use Armament at this time." Gendry answered.
They continued to watch the boy pummel the metal wall, he was getting tired they could tell, even if he was trying to hide it.
"Has he shown sign of the other kinds?" Arol asked.
"I know he is no Conqueror, but I'm not sure about Observation." Gendry answered.
"Well introduce us, my apprentice" Arol said with a smile.
"Tyr" Gendry yelled, catching the young boys attention.
Tyr, rushed toward his master, and saw someone with him.
"Tyr, this is my master, Arol the wise of the mage council" Gendry said to a wide-eyed Tyr.
Tyr bowed to the powerful mage, "It's a pleasure to meet, my lord" he said with a respectful tone.
Arol chuckles, "Well, he has better manners than you did" he said to Gendry who smiled before responding to the young boy.
"Like wise young Tyr" he finished.
"We are done for today, go rest and we will begin again tomorrow" Gendry said, catching the attention of the young boy memorized by his master, one of the most powerful beings in Dakour.
Tyr nodded in agreement and went to the Inn to eat, bathe and rest.
In the dragon pit,
"This is the second time they've mention this, Haki." Tyrion said.
"All we know so far is that there are three types" added Renly.
"Gods, look at what the boy did to the metal wall." Said an impressed king Robert.
"Indeed, your grace, Gendry seems to be a great teacher" earning a smile from Robert.
"Do you think Gendry can train me like this father" ask Tommen
Robert looked at his son, "Of course, when he gets back to Westeros, I'll have him train you, Myrcella and Shireen." he said, the three children smiled brightly at him.
Joffrey looked at his cousin and siblings with jealousy, he was the crown prince. He should be getting those trainings. He also knew that his father was not in a good mood, so he kept he mouth shut.
In the flames,
In the city, bells are ringing waking everybody up from their sleep, they all suit up and grab there weapons, hoping they won't have to use it.
Arol and the Westeros natives make their way outside the Inn, to find the city in chaos.
Arol sees a guard and asks him "Why are the bells ringing" the guard looks at him, "The city is under attack my Lord, 20 stone golems have been sighted, 30 minutes away from the city." the guard rushes off to where he was initially heading.
Arol and the group, head to the city center and there he uses his barrier magic, everyone sees a blue wave slowly envelope the city, he looks at Jon and Gendry, "I can't leave here, or the barrier will fall, go to the gate and see how you can help defend Andrel" they all bowed and made their way to the gate.
"Tyr, stay here and guard Master Arol." Gendry told his young apprentice, who bowed and watch as his master leave for battle.
In the dragon pit,
"Golems?" ask Sansa.
"It's the stone giants the Martell's fought, in the beginning" Arya said to her sister.
"If only we had something like this here, none of our keep would ever fall." Edmure says and everyone agrees with him.
In the flames,
As they arrive at the gate the see the captain giving out orders to his man, "Start getting the civilians in the bunkers, we need to be ready." He shouted, his man, rushing to do their duties.
The captain looked and saw the group, "Is this your doing?" he demanded angrily.
"Of course not, but this is" Jon said, pointing at the blue energy now fully covering the city.
"Lord Arol wanted us to assist you" Robb added.
The captain sighs, "I apologize for my words, but if I don't do something this city is going to be destroyed, 20 golems have enough power to topple a kingdom, what do you think they will do to a city."
"Lord Arol's barrier will hold against them." Gendry said, putting the captain mind at ease.
"Our best choice right now is to challenge them before the reach the city" he finished.
Jon and Robb agreed with him, "us devil fruit users will face them, the rest will help with evacuating the civilians to safety" Robb commended.
"Captain, we need 8 of your fastest horses" Jon demanded.
The captain obliged and had the gate open for them. 12 riders leave the city behind and rush to face the Golems, while the soldiers get into defensive position, praying they succeed.
20 minutes from the group, the golems are seen, on the left shoulder of the leading one is Ramsey Snow and on its right shoulder its Viserys Targaryen.
(We now know how our heroes found their way into Dakour.)
(Cersei Lannister have may have brought the destruction of house
Lannister, what will Tywin do?)
(Jon Arryn and Stannis plan to expose Cersei is coming along quite nicely.)
(Gendry new apprentice, why does he get a familiar feeling around him)
(We will see the power of our heroes in the next 3 chapters, the fun is about to begin.)
(Viserys and Ramsey are now ready to complete their mission, will they win)
(Both Viserys and Ramsey have eaten a devil fruit, gifted to them by their master, one of the Dragon Lord of Duir, Arioch the Defiler.)
(As always, thank you for reading and Criticize, Criticize, Criticize.)
