Midnights // Aemond Targaryen // Aegon Targaryen (2)

26. Suffer for an Eternity

"Your granddaughter has escaped." Coryls stared back at Addam confused. "Another dragon, Aegon said it looked like Moondancer."

"They are together." Corlys rasped. He had hoped to convince them otherwise but Baela and Rhaena were being manipulated by Rhaenys before she died and Rhaenyra still. Corlys had been painted as the villain but that wasnt true. He had hoped the Aisha would be back by now. He looked to Laenor and Jaehaera playing together, unaware of the war going on around them. Jaehaera was older and knew something was wrong. She kept asking for mama, Corlys didnt want to be the one to tell her that Helaena had died a long time ago. But Jaehaera was actually asking for Aisha.

News of unrest in King's Landing reached Tumbleton, making the Hightower army believe they should advance upon the city, but Ser Hobert Hightower doubted, and the Two Betrayers refused to join unless their demands were met. Their demands were ridiculous.

As Aegon was recovering slowly, no one outside of the immediately family knew he was at dragonstone. Prince Daeron was next in line for the throne and there were some who wanted to name him Prince of Dragonstone, some who wanted to name Daeron the king.

But others wanted the crown for themselves, tired of putting their faith in Targaryen's. Lord Hugh Hammer had been recruited by Jace Velaryon and became a dragonrider. He thought that worthy of a crown for himself. He wanted to be crowned king by right of conquest. He had the oldest and largest dragon alive, Vermithor, thrice as big as Daeron's own dragon, Tessarion.

Cregan Stark was furious. Jace had come to Winterfell to beg for help. Cregan swore to follow his fathers oath. He was a man of honor and couldnt believe off the traitors, deserters, betrayals. With each banner that switched back and forth he grew more and more furious. Aegon, Daeron, the hightower usurpers would be punished and killed. He would see to it himself.

Aisha went after daemon. Daemon was moving on foot trying to stay hidden but stopping by a stream for water was a mistake.

She felt like she was on overdrive. She was a moon late and was going to tell Aemond when he got back but he didnt come back. They were having another baby...

"Go." Aisha rasped dark sister gripped tight in her hand as Aquarius swam faster than she flew in the air.

Daemon felt the water vibrating around him he moved to run but hands made of water gripped him tight holding him down.

"Drown me like you did mommy?" Daemon shouted as Aisha seemed to walk on the water to get to him.

"You killed him. You killed Aemond."

"Not the foggiest what you mean." Daemon countered still pulling uselessly at his arms. Bound in the water as though it was chains.

"Your blade." Aisha remarked spinning it in her hand. "Rammed into my husbands eye."

"Not eye." Daemon mused. Aisha clenched her fists and Daemon was on his back a blanket of water on him but it felt like chains crushing him.

"I think I will start with your eye." Aisha seethed as she fisted his hair kneeling beside him as he thrashed against her water bound restraints.

He screamed and screamed as she craved out his eye. She held it before him as he continued to scream out in agony.

"You are being too loud." Aisha hissed driving Dark sister into his mouth and carving out his tongue. Blood pooled in his mouth and down his face.

"Cock next. I know how fond you are of it." Aisha remarked driving his blade through his pants and severing his cock from his body she heard the pop and snap of his bones as he moaned and groaned out whimpering in pain.

"I want you to know I wanted you to suffer for an eternity for what you took from me. From my son. From my babe." Her bloody hand fisted her shirt as his lip quivered.

"But I need you dead." Aisha declared. Tears filled her eyes as she stabbed him once for each life he took each person she loved that died because of their cause.

Laena. Stab.

Laenor. Stab.

Little Jaehaerys. Stab.

Criston. Stab.

He struggled for breath. Choking on his own blood. He felt himself fading out of Consciousness but Aisha slapped his face.

"You dont get to die until I say so." Aisha hissed.

Maelor. Stab.

Helaena. Aisha hesitated but then sliced deep along Daemons thigh. If he didnt send those men to kill Jaehaerys then Helaena wouldnt have gotten so low.

Daeron... Aisha didnt know where he was in the world but surly he would want to get a stab in for his family. Stab.

Aegon would want a hit in as well Aisha knew that as she twisted the blade deep.

"For Aemond." Aisha whispered driving Dark sister into Daemons opposite eye all the way piercing his brain.

She watched the life drain out of him as blood pooled around him. Then she weapt. Killing him didnt bring any of them back. But now he couldnt anyone else that she loved.

Before the Caltrops could strike, Tumbleton woke at night to find themselves under attack by Baela and Rhaena, her dragon Moondancer, and an army of four thousand blacks loyal to Rhaenyra.

Tumbleton was a greens camp, Daeron took off right away. But both Hugh on Vermithor and Daeron were killed.

Baela and Rhaena, on Moondancer battled the riderless Tessarion and Vermithor, their riders slain and fallen but their dragons still raging with fury around them.

Vermithor was the older and largest, a big beast and Moondancer was little and young in comparison, Vermithor ripped off the head of Moondancer, Baelan and Rhaena fell, plumeting to their deaths. Vermithor, died next, his wounds from fighting the other dragons too much. Tessarion, tried as she might to get back up, three times she attempted to gain flight before falling back to the ground in too much pain. She grumbled out, her master gone, her body broken. Lord Blackwood saw her suffering and ended her life in mercy.

Though having won the battle it didnt seem like it, Daeron was dead along with three dragons, but the rivermen had not been able to take the town. The greens army at Tumbleton's gates were closed, and without a dragon or equipment, they could not start a siege, so the rivermen took all they found useful and left. Only one dragon remained at the town, Silverwing. Seasmoke and Dreamfyre were at dragonstone, aisha had Aquarius, Aegon had Sunfyre and The Cannibal was still out there somewhere. Four of the six remaining dragons were in the greens hands yet they yet losing lives.

In order to rid the surviving greens of Ulf the White, Silverwings rider, Hobert drank poisoned Arbor gold with him to both of their deaths, but it was a worthy cause in Hoberts mind. Without a leader or a rider for Silverwing, Lord Peake led the green army thinking King's Landing had been saved.

But Aisha never felt more lost.
