Dragon Queen's Revenge

Nothing Lasts

        Snow Tarley and Sam Jr. of whom had volunteered to join The New Watch out of the goodness of their hearts, were distraught over the loss of their mother after having lost their father at such a young age. Both siblings were in tears and as a result, Bertram was beginning to feel sorry for them even though going along with The Jester's plan meant that he would be able to remain by the side of his only father-figure.

        "What did you just do?!" Jon demanded in a rage that burned greater than the wildfire behind Rhaego even though he knew all too well that the brunette had just murdered everyone he knew in cold blood and had affectively destroyed their only safe-haven from the dragons.

        "You just murdered our King! You destroyed our home! You murdered everyone! Men, women, children!" As Jon began to cycle through his emotions, Rhaego merely stared at him in silence, the gaze behind his violet eyes cold and unfeeling.

        "And you murdered our Queen...My mother...My real mother..." Rhaego calmly reminded Jon.

        "I did what I did to protect The Realm but you...You destroyed everything!" Jon shouted at Rhaego, on the verge of tears. Jon was nearly hysterical at the fact that he was unable to protect his own people, his own family included from an attack from within. He felt truly ashamed of himself for such a failure even if it was a failure that had been beyond his control.

        "Our 'King' was a liar...He has been lying to all of us for a long time...I am your King now, your true King..." Rhaego pointed out the fact that he technically should have been King of The Seven Kingdoms had Bran been truthful about his heritage. A great deal of hardship could have been avoided had Bran been truthful about the survival of Rhaego Targaryen, including the burning of King's Landing.

        "He's right, you know?" Tyrion chimed in to side with The Dragon Prince.

        "You knew about this?" Jon then turned to glare at Tyrion with disbelief.

        "Jon, try to understand...He was going to take my only son away from me..." Tyrion argued, attempting to justify his betrayal.

        "You murdered my brother in cold blood to protect this Bolton bastard?!" Jon then lashed out, causing Bertram to flinch as Tyrion moved to protectively stand in front of him.

        "And you?! You are no King! You are a bloody murderer!" Jon then whipped back around to snap at Rhaego.

        "Are you going to stab me too, Queenslayer?" Rhaego then taunted. Jon quickly began to close in on Rhaego of whom braced himself in preparation to fight after having been hardened by the great, sudden shock of both betrayal as well as now knowing the truth about his identity.

        "I wouldn't do that if I were you!" A sing-song voice then interrupted, causing Jon to halt in his tracks. Everyone then looked up to see The Jester from earlier standing upon the front of one of Bran's many ships. The Jester then leapt down from the tall ship with a few front-flips before landing with grace in front of the group, a wicked grin stretching its way over his countenance as he once again began to grind his teeth.

        "Who the bloody Hell are you?!" Jon demanded as he stared at The Jester, incredulously.

        "Me? Nobody!" The Jester practically giggled before then pointing to Rhaego.

        "He however, is our ticket to saving The World!" The Jester then further elaborated before snaking his arm around Jon's shoulders.

        "Just think about it, Jonny-Boy! Who would ya rather be known as: The Queenslayer or the man who reunited a mother and son?" The Jester then inquired before patting Jon on the back hard enough to cause the man to grunt.
