Warning: this chapter is rather violent.

I look with a shocked face as Drogon is shot down. My face contorts in anger. Unimaginable anger and hatred flow through me. I only see red and crave the death of those that did this. Rhaegal roars in anger as he sees Drogon being hurt.

I grind my teeth in anger and direct Rhaegal towards Daenerys. I burn everything to the ground as I make my way to Daenerys. At this point, I do not care about anything but saving Daenerys. Thousands die as I angrily make my way towards Daenerys. The screams of the soldiers that are melting have little effect on me. My mind is only filled with worry and anger. The trail I leave behind is the incarnation of death and destruction. Soldiers under the command of Jaime flee in terror as they see me approach. The spot where Daenerys went down with Drogon comes into view and I am relieved beyond words. I see Daenerys is still alive. She is trying to pull out the massive arrow that is embedded in the chest of Drogon. He roars in pain and anger. Drogon burns and eats every enemy soldier around him.

Rhaegal roars in anger at the sight of Drogon being hurt. I look to see where the large arrow came from. Not too far away, I see a weird weapon. It looks like a big crossbow. They seem to be in the process of reloading. I turn Rhaegal towards it. "Dracarys!" I yell. Rhaegal angrily roars and engulfs the machine in thick torrents of flame. The amount of fire he breaths out is bigger and hotter than usual. The men and the machine melt and burn away leaving only ash. I look around in the area and see no similar weapon anywhere. I lower Rhaegal so I am close to Daenerys. "Dany! Are you alright?" I ask worriedly. "Burn them all!" She says angrily. "Please calm down, this will be over soon," I say, trying to be as calm as I can. Even though I am still quite angry myself. She takes a few calming breaths and turns back to Drogon. I look towards the camp. They seem to be holding their ground for now. Daenerys and I leveled the playing field. By the looks of it, we killed around half of their army just with Drogon and Rhaegal. I think my rampage helped greatly.

Suddenly, I hear a strange sound. It is high-pitched and very loud. I smile widely. The Dothraki have arrived! I look towards Blackwater Bay and on the horizon, an enormous sea of horses is coming our way. They scream their war cries and soon smash into the Lannister army. I turn back to Daenerys. "We need to get there before they kill everyone. As much as I hate them, we should give them the opportunity to surrender," I say to her. She looks at me angrily. "Let them die," she says. "Dany... be better than your enemies," I say soothingly. "I already killed thousands when I made my way to you. They paid the price."

She lets out an angry sigh but nods. "Fine..." she says angrily. I smile and nod. She climbs on Drogon again and we fly towards the fighting armies. As we fly over, more and more soldiers surrender. Not much later the whole army, which is reduced to around one-fourth of their original size, surrenders. I land in the middle of the surrendering army and Daenerys lands next to me. "Take everyone captive and bring them to me!" Daenerys commands the Dothraki in their native tongue.

I climb off Rhaegal and run towards Daenerys, who is climbing off Drogon. "Dany, please tell me you are not hurt," I say while I look for any wounds on her body. "I am fine. Drogon protected me. You and Rhaegal made sure that the focus was not on us," she says to calm me down. I sigh in relief. "Thank the gods! I was so angry and worried," I say with tears coming down my face. I pull her to me and embrace her tightly. I never want to let her go again. "Love... can't... breath..." Daenerys manages to say. I quickly let go. "Sorry..." I say timidly. Daenerys smiles and pulls me in for a passionate and deep kiss. "Thank you, my noble knight. Come, let's deal with these captured men," Daenerys says.

All the people that surrendered have been herded together. I, together with Daenerys, look at the group of captured soldiers that are being brought to us. Behind me and Daenerys are Drogon and Rhaegal. They are also looking at the large group.
