Chapter 2
Everyone returns to the castle where Stannis speak one of his maids, "make room for my nephews and nieces, plus two for our guest" the women bowed and went to complete her task.
Robert, who was still playing with his dragon, looked at his brother with a grin, that Stannis always hated. "Brother, we will have a feast to celebrate this occasion"
Stannis agreed with his brother and went to make sure the preparations for a feast, that will take place later in the day.
The new strangers were escorted to their room, where clothes and a bath were waiting for them. It was the same for the Baratheon bastards. They were all getting ready for the feast.
Later in the day, the feats started, Robert was bragging about how his dragon was already breathing fire at everything. While Renly was right there with him, comparing dragon feats.
Lord Stark who was watching his oldest friend, turn to the Woman, Ur if he remembers correctly, Ur was a woman of average height with a slim, curvaceous figure. Her irises were black, and she kept her dark purple hair at chin length. Her hair was quite unkempt, cascading down the sides of her face and covering her ears. Only a few strands of her hair hung down her temple, some falling between her eyes.
He asks her, "Lady Ur" trying to be respectful. She turns to look at him. "The dragon king, what are his intention with my family"
She smiled at him, "just Ur, will do fine, Lord Stark, I'm no lady", she took a bite of her food, and answered his question. "It's like he said, I'm to teach those with Stark blood how to fight"
Eddard was confused, "We have a master of Arms in Winterfell, that does a good job at training my children, Ur"
Ur looked at him again, "yet none of you are like the stark of old"
That was not what Eddard was expecting, "The starks of old?" he asks.
"Yes, how do you think the wall was built, lord Stark"
"With giants and the children of the forest" he answered.
"True, but Bran was the one with the Ice magic that raised it" she said and went back to her food.
Lord Stark understood what the dragon king meant; he plans to have Ur bring out the magic in their blood.
"Once we are in Winterfell, you will see what I mean Lord Stark, and you will thank my king for it" she said.
Eddard nodded reluctantly; he was thinking how he is going to discuss this matter with his wife or what would happen when his banner finds out his house blood is magical. He looked around and found his children with the heir of Dragonstone Shireen Baratheon and Roberts bastard talking about something, he figures the dragons are the topic of discussion. He continued to observe them as he ate.
Serena was speaking the Baratheon brothers, very enthusiastically, "my king wants me to make y'all as fierce as Godsgrief when he faces the sea god himself" the hall was now paying attention the man.
Stannis couldn't help but observe the man, speaking he have medium-length, wavy and spiked orange hair that juts out at the top in a shape similar to rabbit ears; he has thick eyebrows and bears a scar over the bridge of his nose.
He is dressed in a fanciful white robe with blue long sleeves, a blue belt and blue pants. His chest and neck area are covered by a small red cloak with white colored edges, a large collar and three yellow-colored crescent shapes lined up vertically on both sides over his chest. He also wears a simple pair of boots that reach below his knees. His most noticeable attribute is a large wheel of blades on his back, giving him the superficial resemblance of a divine figure.
Serena jumps on the table and that brings Stannis out of his thinking. "I will make all of you, powerful dragon riders the like not even those abominations of Valyria would be able to stand against"
The hall erupted in cheers, he looked and saw his brother and king participating, he turned and looked at his daughter who was talking to the stark children. What really caught his attention was the boy, Gendry if he remembers, two dragons, he could not believe it. The boy went from being the low born bastard of a king to one of the most powerful men in Westeros, if not the known world.
His attention was directed at Serena again, "We will travel to where storms end, there we will begin our training" the queer man said.
He turned and began to discuss matters with Ser Davos, regarding his journey of locating his brother other bastards. If he can get more dragon riders, house Baratheon would cement itself as a House to be truly feared, of course he will have to discuss the matter with his brother.
Shireen love feast, but his father never really like them, so on dragon stones feasts were a rare thing. Shireen was happy to see she have more cousins, of course she knew of Edric but having Mya and Bella talk to her brought joy to her. Gendry was still a hard shell to open; he became popular due to his two dragons. He only gave her yes mlady, and no mlady answers. He kept his two dragons close to him, but allowed her to pet them, she even manages to convince him to let the stark children pet them too, she considers that a victory.
Tywin was observing everything, in seething silence, he looked at the Baratheon with their dragons, he was wondering why Robert did not push for this dragon king to give dragons to his trueborn children.
His eyes fell on his daughter, and he was disappointed by her actions, the dragon king could have killed her, and no one would have done anything. She was looking towards the king bastards and specifically, the king oldest son, this Gendry, the boy had two dragons.
The boy is a threat to his grandson claim and future rule, if nothing is done, the boy will be added to the succession. Robert was already fond of him; add the fact he had more dragons than anyone.
He looked back at his daughter; he will need to keep her in line once the dinner is over. Last thing he needs is to fight a losing war with the dragon king over his daughter's stupidity.
The Feast ended and everyone went to the room provided for them, Tywin called a meeting, where his brother Kevin, his two sons, Jamie and Tyrion plus his daughter was there waiting for him.
Tywin entered the room, sat down and Kevin poured him some whine, he looks at Cersei and spoke, "Your action today, not only shamed our house, but it also cost us greatly"
Cersei was about to respond when Tywin, glared at her, which cowed her into silence. "Lannister's do not act like fools, yet today_"
She interrupted him, to the shock of the others, "my children were being set aside for bastards, I had to do something"
Tywin gave her a look, and she bowed her head in shame, refusing to look at her father.
He continued, "yet today, you acted more like a petulant child than a lion of Casterly Rock"
Cersei, tried to save face, "we could simply take the dragons"
"And how would we do that?" Tywin ask his foolish daughter.
Cersei looking at her father like she has the brightest idea, "we send our man to take them from the bastards"
Tyrion looked shocked at his sister's words, "how will we explain to the king, your husband that we took his bastards dragons or better yet, how will we explain our action to the dragon king when he returns."
Cersei looked murderous at the Imp, Kevan spoke, "Tyrion is right" everyone turned to look at him.
"This Dragon King will destroy our house if we make any move against him" he looked at Tywin, "it will be best if we try to get dragons when he returns."
Cersei looked at her uncle, ready to dismiss him, until her father firmly spoke, "Kevan is right, we will not make any move, until I say so" no one answered. He repeated himself, for Jamie and Cersei, "Do I make myself clear" they both nodded in acknowledgment. He dismisses them and everyone went to their room.
3 days later the stark goes home with Ur, while the Baratheon's make way for Storms end, Tywin and his host go back home, and the rest of the royal family goes back to kings landing.
Once the Baratheon arrived in storms end, Serena gave them 3 days to rest before he started training them.
Renly had room assigned to them, and for his bastard niece and nephews he had Baratheon colored clothes made for them. Stannis had maester Cresson prepare lessons that will teach them the way of lords and ladies of the seven kingdoms, plus the history of their houses.
After 3 days, of resting and the Baratheon bastard, hearing about their lessons from Maester Cresson.
Serena, walked to the sparring yard and the Baratheon's followed him, he lined them up and began to speak, "the blood of Elenei is very potent, the Durrandon of old could control Thunder, Wind and Water"
The Baratheon's look surprised and shock at the revelation, Serena continues speaking "since your ancestor mingle with the incest spawn of Valyria, I believe with proper training we could add Red-hot fire into the list"
Robert was happy, at least the dragon spawned blood flowing through him is good for something.
Serena stepped forward, with a blade in hand. "Now I will cut your palm and with your blood, I will see your magic type and which method of training will work for you." He told them.
Robert put his hand forward and Serena cuts his palm, a green light appears, to their shock and amazement.
The light dissipates and Robert palm is healed as if it was not cut. Serena looked at him, "Robert, it seems you will be calling down thunder on your enemies." Robert could not wait to start training.
He stops in front of Stannis and Shireen; he cuts open their palms and the green light appears again. "My lord Stannis, it seems you and Lady Shireen will bring great destruction, with raging Tornadoes." Stannis was still stoic, but Shireen face showed a bright smile.
He stops in front of Renly and Edric, he cut their palm, "you both will Burn the plains, scatter the ash, scorch the air, envelop everything in an infernal blaze. It is the most destruction of magic" Renly and Edric, both gave him a serious nod.
He moved Infront of Mya and Bella, he cut their palm, "Mya, you and Bella will draw on the depths of the oceans and tides, as well as through rivers and lakes that flow back to it." Both girls look happy, at the magic they possess.
He moves Infront of his last student, he cut his palm, and the green light appears, once the greenlight disappear, to everyone surprise, he began to chuckle and then it turned into a full laugh, puzzle everyone, especially Gendry.
Once he was done laughing, he points to Gendry and said, "I should have known having two dragons was not enough."
He now has a huge grin on his face and declared "Only one in million chances can one of Durrandon blood control all three types of magic. Only Durran the Devout, was able to do such. As luck will have it Gendry is the second one of Durrandon blood to do so, with the addition of fire magic" he chuckles to himself. "Well, you have surpassed your ancestors."
To the shock of all present, Robert could not help himself, he had a huge grin on his face, when he looked at his bastard son. Serena started explaining the regiments they would have to follow for the next 3 years, so the fully wield their magic.
