Slap. And another. And another...

Silas stared wide eyed and open mouthed as Tyrion slapped Joffrey. He was shocked and amazed before he giggled out. He pointed up at tyrion.

"You are gonna be in trouble." Silas declared.

"No. I was educating my nephew." Tyrion corrected.

"Mama says its nice to slap, hit, kick, stab or bite people." Silas corrected.

"What does your father say?" Tyrion countered. Silas chuckled again.

"Go for the balls and when Im bigger the eyes are a weak spot." Silas answered. He forked his fingers and jabbed them out quickly. Tyrion took a step back hesitantly. 

"Listen to your mother." Tyrion decided.

"I wish we weren't leaving you." Haezel remarked. "Im so sorry it has come to this and without him waking."

"It has been a blessing having a friend here in this time but I understand." Catelyn assured. "The realms cant run themselves. They need a king. They need Ned," catelyn whispered wiping at her tears.

"Jon! Jon! Jon!" Arya declared.

"Hey, whats wrong?" Jon questioned.

"I was packing up my sword. The sword you gave me and- well- its gone!" Arya shouted.

"What do you mean gone? Did is sink to the bottom of your trunk?" Jon pondered

"No! I emptied it out. Dumped it on the floor. Nothing!" Arya shouted. "It just up and left!"

"Thats a toothpick." Gregor remarked.

"Finders keepers. Losers weepers!" Griffin corrected.

"Where did you get that?" Gregor questioned.

"I dont know." Griffin tried to hide it from his father.

"Answer me." Gregor commanded.

"I might have stolen it. But a sword is wasted on a girl!" Griffin shouted.

"Aye." Gregor agreed. "But dont let your mother hear that. Shes a fiesty one."

"Can I keep it?" Griffin asked hopefully.

"Gregor!" Haezel shouted. "How many times have I told you!? No real swords! Hes going to poke a hole in someone. Or worse himself." Haezel grumbled extending a hand.

"Damnit." Griffin murmured.

"I found your sword." Jon chuckled.

"That little-"

"Careful Arya. Hes a clegane. And you dont want to feel his fathers fury. I can tell you that already." Jon warned.

"He stole my sword."

"Go get it back. Nicely." Jon added. Arya marched up to them her fists balled at her sides as griffin begrudgingly handed over the sword to Haezel.

"Ah arya is this sword yours?" Haezel questioned.

"Yes." Arya agreed proudly. "But dont tell my father." She added hesitantly.

"Griffin what do you have to say to arya?" Haezel questioned as she handed it over.

"Whats a girl gonna do with a blade?" Griffin questioned.

"Griff." Gregor grumbled.

"Im sorry I took your blade. I didnt think a girl could fight and thought-" griffins mouth was smothered by his fathers hand.

"Thats enough of that." Gregor decided. He picked griffin up.

"Sorry Arya." Haezel added.

"Dont tell my father and we can put this behind us." Arya assured.

"Alright. But hes going to find out."

"How?" Arya sassed.

"A father has a way of knowing when his little girl is in trouble or being troublesome." Haezel assured. Arya thought on that before glancing back at her father. 

"I'm really sneaky." Arya countered. 

"My almost 4 year old stole your sword from under your nose, if anything he is sneaky." Haezel corrected. 

"I not four yet." Griffin added. "Soon though!" 

"Everyone ready? Good lets get out of here." Cersei grumbled ushering her children in the carriage. 

"I need to count my children." Haezel corrected. "Silas, Griffin, Haemon and... GREGOR!" 

"I got her." Gregor grumbled. Haven was strapped to Gregors chest. She smiled completely giddy, she waved back at Haezel. 

"Hat and mittens!" Haezel demanded. "Watch them." she added pointing to her troublemakers. Griffin smiled a wicked smile back at Cersei. 

"Hello little monsters." Cersei agreed. 

"Okay," Haezel remarked once she finished bundling Haven up. 

"She looks like a marshmallow." Gregor remarked. 

"She will be warm." Haezel corrected. "It's this or she rides with me." Gregor looked down at little Haven, she smiled up at him. 

"Mine." Gregor assured. "Oh," he pulled out a handful of winter roses from his bag. "I found them." Haezel smiled taking them carefully from him. "Careful, thrones." 

"Thank you love, they are beautiful." Haezel agreed kissing his cheek. Gregor smiled softly back at her. "Let me know if she needs a break." she added as she headed back to the carriage. 

"I lost one." Cersei remarked calmly. 

"Honey bear?" Haezel demanded. He jumped out from under the carriage bench, laughing out. 

"Found ouuu!" Haemon laughed out. 

"My turn!" Silas remarked. "Go out, do it again." 

"No it's my turn!" Griffin corrected. Cersei smiled back at Haezel. 

"Admit it, you miss this age." Haezel remarked before looking to the twins wrestling. "Stop beating up your brother!"
