''It seems you were mistaken as to Aegon's habits." Criston remarked as they walked

"He could be in the hands of mercenaries, on a ship to Yi Ti. He could be dead." Aemond offered nonchalantly.

" Let us hope, for your mother's sake, that is not the case." Criston offered kindly.

''Something must be done. Aegon is unfit to rule.'' Erryk remarked as the brothers stared down at the fighting pits, the childrens fighting pits.

 ''You tolerated the Prince's proclivities for years." Arryk added

''Because it was my sworn duty, Arryk.'' Erryk reminded him. 'It's for the Hand to find wisdom. We swore an oath of service until death.'' He hissed.

"You say goodbye to your boytoy?" Rocket questioned as Cassie got on the ship.

''The prince and... No.'' Cassie murmured taking her seat

''Oh he break your heart?" Rocket mused and cassie swatted him over the head.   ''Watch it!"

''Shut up before I scruff you.'' Cassie countered.

''What happened? You tell him we were leaving and he take it bad.'' Peter pondered as he buckled up.

''I guess.'' Cassie agreed. ''I looked for him but the castle seemed to be in a state of panic. Best we go before something really goes wrong here.'' Cassie remarked. Cassie reached for the lever but Peter stopped her.

''We are never hopefully never coming back. Don't you want to say goodbye?" Peter countered.

''He wouldn't have run away if he wanted to see me off.'' Cassie reminded him and peter saw real pain in her eyes.

"Im sorry cas."

"Its whatever.'' She lied. ''Lets go home.'' He leaned back in his seat.

''I am groot."

''Hatch secure. Lets give it a go.'' Cassie agreed pulling the lever as rocket hit about a million buttons.'' One jump back to nowhere.'' Cassie prayed softly as she shifted gears. The ship rattled a bit as the engine revved and lifted off the ground.

''Good sign right?'' Rocket remarked happily.

''Still here so lets not jump to yippie ki yay mother fuckers just yet.'' Cassie countered.

Aemond watched from the ground as the ship took off a portal opening and the ship rattlings it bumpily flew through.

Rocket chuckled giddy as they were soaring through the stars again.

''We did it.'' Peter declared.

''I am groot.''

"Rocket... why do you have the kings crown and mask!" Peter shouted. "And the princes eye!"

"Dont touch that!" Rocket demanded swatting a paw at him.

"What else do you have in there?" Peter demanded. 

"DO NOT TOUCH!" Rocket spat. 

''Rocket!'' Cassie shouted.

''What? He doesn't need it.'' Rocket countered.

"The kings needs his crown." Cassie corrected.

''Its his eye.'' Peter remarked as rocket held it up in the starlight

''It's a gem he shoved in his eye. Big difference.'' Rocket corrected.

"I did steal you that robotic eye previously. There is a difference." Cassie agreed. 

''I am groot''

''Groot!'' Peter tsked.

''I am groot.''

''What?'' Cassie countered.

"Yeah he was dead when I went for the mask I wasnt going to just leave a perfectly good crown." Rocket agreed. 

"I am Groot!"

"I'm gonna be sick.''

Cassie jumped up pointing her gun in the direction of the groaning.

''Whos there?'' Peter demanded doing the same laser beams focused in on the hatch.

"Do you have a chamber pot? Im really gonna be sick."

"Aegon?"
