Flame // Sandor Clegane

A thing for words

'I could do better work if I had proper tools.' Gendry told Thoros. Kit was happily running circles around chama when they got out of the tavern. He had waited with the horses, chama gave him some bread and meat. He ate it quickly before she offered him some water as well.

'It doesn't need to look pretty just needs to keep the arrows away from my heart.' Thoros told him as he helped him with his armor.

'Why are you helping him?' arya sassed, 'he takes us as his prisoners and now he is our friend?' Arya asked incredulously.

'Not your prisoner little lady, a guest.' Thoros corrected.

'So I can walk away then?'

'You're not safe on your own being Ned Starks daughter. It's lucky we found you.' Chama informed her. 'could have been found by a lot worse than us, trust me.' they packed up the horses and arya and gendry were loaded up as well.

'little lady your friend not coming with us?' chama asked tipping her head back to hot pie.

'No he is going to stay and cook he made this.' she held it out to Chama.

'what is it?' chama questioned looking over the oddly shaped loaf of bread.

'He says it's a wolf... he made you one as well.' she handed one over to chama.

'Is this a wolf too?'

'He said it was fire... I don't see it but-'

'That was really sweet of him,' chama said she smiled back at hotpie he blushed before heading back inside. 'come on now time to go.' Chama told her helped arya up onto a horse. 'come on Kit.' Chama said jumping on her own horse, Cavall. Kit ran after her spiriting into the woods.

'Where are we going?' arya questioned.

Sandor's horse was led by Rick, since sandor was so large sharing a horse with him was less then comfortable as opposed to arya and gendry both slight they rode with a fellow brotherhood member. Sandor grumbled just as much as Arya.

'you sure hes not your father?' chama questioned as they stopped to rest the horses and arya made a face of disgust.

'He is a monster!' arya told her.

'you two just seem to grumble a lot.' Chama remarked. Kit put his front paws on chamas legs and she pet his head, rubbing between his ears.

'you have a pet fox?' arya questioned.

'hes not a pet, he is a companion.' Chama corrected.

'hes her pet.' Thoros called over to her. 'like a puppy, vicious.'

'I had a direwolf. They were vicious when threatened.' Arya remarked.

'kitsune here is a wild animal, just as direwolves are.' Chama clarified, 'he just prefers people to his own kind.'

'kitsune?' gendry questioned.

'it means fox.' Chama told them with a laugh.

'cha cha has a thing for words.' Thoros told Gendry.

'what do you mean?' Gendry questioned but arya spoke up.

'how did you come across Kitsune?' arya questioned.

'he was wounded, his paws burned, a trap had been set but it caught fire, he was hurt. i helped him and he stays with me.... we look out for each other.' Chama told him.

'most people would want him for food.' Gendry remarked and kit growled at him as if he understood.

'don't threaten my baby.' Chama warned. 'he doesn't like it and neither do it.'

'I wasn't-' genry said nervously. 'I just meant-'

'I know what you meant. But I saved him from that life, he is going to live a long life with me for as long as he wants.' Chama told them.

'what if he wants to leave?'

'he can. But he chooses not to.' chama told them.

'come on, cha cha, move your sexy ass.' Thoros told her as she jumped back on her horse. 'we gotta keep moving if we are going to make it by night fall.'

'yeah, yeah,' chama whistled, kit spun around before chasing ahead of them.
