A THUNDEROUS commotion awoke the young princess from her sleep. Quickly Aelanys jumped from her bed to dress into a robe and night shoes. She scrambled to the door peaking her head out. "What is going on Dravyn?" The groggy princess was trying to readjust her eyes from the lit hallway. "Stay in your chambers Aelanys. I will find out more information," Dravyn kept a collected demeanor as he advised his princess.
Pondering for a moment on his advice, she turned around to go back into her chambers. Just as she was about to close her doors the princess could distinctly hear her young brother scream. "Dravyn! I must go! Alert the commander at once!" Aelanys demanded as she rushed towards the sound of her brothers. She could hear the clicking sound of Dravyn's armor as he ran to alert his lord commander.
It took a while for her to find the source but when she did a wave of shock jolted through her body. Jace, Luke, Baela, and Rhaena had been covered in scratches and bruises. Aemond stood above her younger brother with a rock in hand. "What is this all about?! Tell me now!" Demanded the princess only to get a sprout of voices overwhelm her of the events that occurred. "The lot of you must stop this madness! We are family united by blood one way or another. This cruelty must end!"
"He called us bastards!" Whined Luke who had been underneath Aemond.
"That is no reason to resort to violence!"
"He stole Vhagar!" Cried out Rhaena, a disheartening look painted onto her face.
"None if this matters! The fighting must cease at once! This can only result in further hatred between our families. Please let us go back abed and await for the adults to handle the situation properly in the morrow." Aelanys pleaded with all of her might, tears welling in her eyes. She was only met with her two cousins, Baela and Rhaena, striking her down. Her mind instantly brought her back to the side of herself she feared. The side that completely damaged Ser Criston Cole's back. Aelanys froze unable to will herself to become that monster again. She could only cry out in pain as her cousins continued to strike her. Aemond was quick rescue the princess, shoving Rhaena to the ground and punching Baela. The sound of all of fighting caused Aelanys to twitch in fear. "How fucking dare you both stand there and not defend her!?" Aemond was full of anger as he roared at her younger brothers who stood frozen.
It took mere seconds for the boys to continue fighting giving Aelanys a sick stomach."Luke! Jace! Stop! Someone will get hurt if this continues!" Aelanys tried reasoning seeing Jace remove a dagger from his belt. "No!" Cried out the princess. Everything happened almost too quickly to process. As if it were instinct, Aelanys tried to block Luke from maiming Aemond by putting her hand out. Both Aelanys and Aemond let out an ear piercing scream out of searing flash of pain licking at their skin.
