Many years ago

''I had a bad dream.'' Avalon remarked pulling herself up on viserys bed.

''What was it about?'' Viserys questioned pulling the covers up over her.

''Mouse shrunk to the size of a mouse!'' Avalon exclaimed

''Thats a bad dream?'' Viserys chuckled

''I can't be a dragon rider if my dragon is the size of an actual mouse!'' Avalon told him with a very large pout.

''Are you worried? Should we check on him?'' Viserys offered and avalon jumped up tripping on the blankets as she went

''I'm okay.' she declared standing back up. ''Come on!'' She pulled viserys hand down to the dragons cave. ''Mouse! Come here Mouse!'' Avalon declared

''See not tiny. Quite large actually.'' Viserys remarked picking up his baby sister and she let out a deep breath of relief.

''Mouse is going to be bigger than caraxes and balerion!'' Avalon declared

''You think?'' Viserys questioned a shiver went through his spine as the night breeze picked up

''Mouse gets more love and everyone knows you need lots of love to grow.'' Avalon told him

''Then why are you so little?'' Viserys questioned ''you are the most loved little girl in all of westeros.'' Viserys countered and avalon tipped her head to the side debating.

''So my theory is flawed.'' Avalon admitted resting her head on his shoulder.

''You ready for bed now?''

''Yes.'' Avalon agreed. ''Can you read me a history book they always put me to sleep.'' Avalon mused and viserys tickled at her ribs.

"You stinker butt." Viserys told her as she laughed into him.

Viserys didnt have a lovely singing voice but avalon still liked Viserys to sing her to sleep anyways.

''I'm a little dragon, strong and stout.
Here is my tail and here is my snout.
If I get upset, you better watch out!
I'll roar, and shout, and stomp about."
Avalon giggled into him. Viserys didn't have a good voice, Daemon did, but Avalon always wanted Viserys to sing her a song at night and tell her a story.

"Another one!" She declared.

"You don't look very tired." Viserys remarked.

"I can pretend." Avalon assured laying back down.

"It's late little love, big day tomorrow."

"Another one, please Vis!" Avalon begged and Viserys could never say no to her. "A story, please a story!" Avalon requested she had mastered the pout and dragon eyes.

''Five little dragons went out one day.' Viserys began and Avalon beamed up at him. 'Over the hills and far away Mother dragon said, It's time for your snack, Only four little dragons came roaring back.''

"Oh no!" Avalon declared with a smile as Viserys lay down next to her, her little hand disappeared under his hand.

''Four little dragons went out one day, Over the hills and far away, Mother dragon said, It's time for your snack, Only three little dragons came roaring back.' Viserys went on.

"We are losing dragons Viserys." Avalon remarked and Viserys chuckled nodding as she curled into him.

'Three little dragons went out one day Over the hills and far away Mother dragon said, It's time for your snack, Only two little dragons came roaring back."

"Balerion must have left, mouse always comes for his snacks." Avalon told him confidently.

"Must be." Viserys agreed. 'Two little dragons went out one day over the hills and far away Mother dragon said, It's time for your snack, Only one little dragon came roaring back.'

"Definitely mouse." Avalon assured. 'He is the most well behaved of our dragons."

"He is, because he has the best owner." Viserys agreed. 'One little dragon went out one day Over the hills and far away-'

"He better come back, Viserys, or else we are going to have to go back down to the dragon cave." Avalon warned and Viserys chuckled wrapped an arm around her shoulder.

''Mother dragon said, It's time for your snack, But no little dragons came roaring back."

"Viserys!" Avalon declared. "That's a bad story."

"I'm not done." Viserys assured. 'Mother dragon said, It's a really good snack! And all five little dragons came roaring back. Viserys told her and Avalon giggled into him. "Goodnight little love." Viserys coed.
