The Half Bastard Princess//Aemond Targaryen

06

"What are you-"

"Someone stole Vhagar!"

———

Rhenee tried to calm her two cousins down as they began to freak out and sob as that was their mother's dragon but in her defense it's anoyones game to claim her.

"You sure someone took her? She could have just taken off for a flight." She tried to reason and reassure them.

"We saw someone! We swear it!  But they were to far to see who it was." Rhaena cry's out. "She was mine to claim."

Rhenee looked at her as she seemed defeated and not sure why a small girl needed to claim such a huge dragon right away.

But again Vhagar was older and skilled dragon and her having a dragon that huge would help if any enemies came and tried to fight.

"Um, where are the adults?" She wanted to at least get someone older than them to be involved on solving this situation.

"Who cares! We have to go see who took my mothers dragon!" She cried out and dragged Rhenee by her hand.

Jace and Luke follows holding closely to one another.

The two cousins lead Rhenee towards a cave that leads to where Vhagar had landed to see who was the person to claim her.

"You sure she just didn't fly?"

"No!"

Rhenee rolled her eyes. "No need to get angry. Lost of dragons usually fly off when stressed out. That's what father says."

"Well your father lied." Rhaena says and quickly moves closer toward the cave as flames light the way.

All children come to a stop when they see who it was.

"It's him!" Rhaena calls out accusingly.

"It's me." Aemond says confidently.

Rhenee looked over her cousin's shoulders and felt herself sigh in relief he is not hurt but was also conflicted on how to feel about him and her cousins anger for taking the dragon.

"Vhagar is my mothers dragon."

"Your mother is dead."

"Aemond!" Rhenee shouts.

"And Vhagar has a new rider now."

Where is mother when you need her.

"She was mine to claim!" Rhaena fisted her hands in anger.

"Then you should've claimed her!" He says back not caring if it was her birthright to claim a beast. "Maybe your cousin's can find you a pig to ride. It would suit you."

Within a flash Rhaena runs forward and tried to hit Aemond but he had gotten a hold of her and shoved her to the ground. Then Baela rushed in to defend her sister and punched Aemond to him cry in pain and fall to the ground.

"Stop fighting!" Rhenee shouted not wanting anyone to get hurt over a dragon.

Aemond stood up with blood on his face and swings his arm back and punched Baela in the face as blood spurs out her nose as she landed on her butt looking up at her cousin in fear and anger.

"Come at me again and I'll feed you to my dragon." He threatened her.

"Aemond that's enough! Jace–Luke no!" She tired grabbing her brothers but they swung.

The sound of cracked noses and skin hitting bones made Rhenee cringe as blood is spilled from their faces. She tried her best to calm the situation as Jace gets shoved to the floor and Luke screaming to defend his brother but with him being smaller and not as strong yet he is easily punched in the face with him groaning on the ground.

Rhenee saw red for a second and charged Aemond to the ground and slapped him around. "Don't you dare hurt them! You have done enough already." She shouted to only be punched on the nose and be pushed off and land on her back clutching her face as tears swell at her eyes.

"Rhenee!" Jace shouted.

He looked at Aemond who just got back up and tackled him down with ease as Rhaena and Baela join in on hitting him. Their anger consumed them as their older cousin is crying and clutching her face.

Rhenee took awhile to realize the boy she loved and cared for punched her as all she wanted was to defuse the situation.

"Enough!" She groans as more blood spurts out her nose and into her mouth. "I said enough!" She leans her head back in agony as a headache came to be.

Aemond managed to kick everyone off of him as Luke came from the side to attack to only be grabbed by the neck. He had lifted up a large rock in his palms as Rhenee eyes widen in shocked.

No...

"You will die screaming in flames just as your father did! Bastards."

Rhenee heart sank at his words as he knew who her true father was and being called a name he told her not to worry about. She felt betrayed by him as she's the one about to get her head bashed in by the rock.

"My father is still alive!" Luke cries, referring to Ser Laenor.

Aemond chucked. "He doesn't know, does he, Lord Strong?" He looked towards Jace...then her.

Jace stood there as he pulls out a blade from his clothing as Rhenee pats her dress down not feeling her blade and looked back to see the carved dragon on the blade. Her eyes widen as it fallen out when she got into it when Aemond.

"Jace!" Her and Rhaena call him out.

Jace tried to cut Aemond to only be pushed back down to the sand as Luke scrambles up and find the blade himself as Aemond lifted his arm up with rock still in hand ready to smash it against Jace.

It happened so suddenly as the screams of Luke and Aemond are heard but more of Aemond.

Rhenee looked over to see what happened as Aemond held his face and blood drips between his fingers as he cried out in pain. She tried to crawl next to him to see how bad the damage was done.

The guards on watch suddenly came in. "Cease this at once!" Ser Harrold shouted as they ran up to everyone to pull them apart. "Get away!" He shouted once more.

"A-Aemond!" Rhenee calls out but be ignored her as a guard picks her up and gave her a cloth for her bleeding nose.

"Let's go princess." He mumbled as she tried to look over to Aemond

"My Prince, my Prince. Let me see." Aemond shows Ser Harrold his eyes but she couldn't see it. "Gods be good." He mumbled but loud enough for her to hear.

The damage is done.
