Rhaenyra had woken up at mid day and saw Aegon was gone again. She assumed he went out for a fly so she got dressed into her riding outfit because she planned to ride him after she had eaten. She had black leggings with boots and a shirt to match, and an over coat with scales from Aegon from when he had shed.

She walked through the corridors and noticed it was extremely quiet. She went to the kitchen and saw a bowl off porridge that looked like it had been sitting there all day. It also had the same note from her sister.

The porridge was covered in flys so she grabbed an apple and left. When she got back to her room she was done with the apple and walked over to the platform to throw it off and she did. Rhaenyra looked up into the sky and couldn't see Aegon.

"Aegon!" She called out.

Suddenly he roared loudly and came nose diving down. He crashed in the platform just missing Rhaenyra. He stood up and looked at her with a large whale in his mouth.

"Hurry up and eat, we are riding today" she smiled and he began to tear it apart.

She sat at her vanity and did her hair, then a maid walked in.

"You didn't knock?" Rhaenyra stopped bushing her hair.

"Apologies my lady, your sister, her Grace has traveled north to help the king in the North, Jon Snow" she bowed and left.

Rhaenyra took a minute to process the information and finished doing her hair in two braids. She stood up and Aegon was licking the whale blood off the floor.

"We are going North" she smiled.

She grabbed her satchel from a hook that hung next to the door then walked over to Aegon. He leaned his head down and she climbed up and sat on the back of his neck. He turned around and flew out of the room and  headed for the clouds.

After a few hours of Aegon flying at a rapid pace the two began to approach Winterfell. It made her smile as she thought of Bran then she saw Drogon flying around. Aegon noticed him and made a calling sound. Daenerys dragon flew over to Aegon who began to hover in the sky.

To Rhaenyra it seemed like they where having a conversation. Aegon roared and headed to the ground.

"Aegon?" Rhaenyra asked and he landed.

She looked around and saw people heading into the gates. The line stopped when Aegon landed. She slid down his wing and observed the line.

She saw Unsullied soldiers, people from Dothraki tribes and then on a horse, sat her sister, Daenerys Targaryen. She had a huge smile on her face as she rode next to Jon Snow.
Daenerys looked over at the white dragon then saw Rhaenyra and her smiled shrunk.

Jon looked over at Rhaenyra then looked back at Daenerys. Rhaenyra rolled her eyes and walked towards the gates pushing past people. She walked in and looked around and stopped.

An orange haired lady looked at her with a smug expression. Rhaenyra cocked an eyebrow and looked at the person next to her.

She didn't believe it.

Nor could he.

"BRAN!" She ran towards him and hugged him and dropped to his feet as she fell weak. "I'm so so so so so so sorry"

Her head rested on his knees as she cried. His hand rubbed the back of her head.

"I missed you" he said and she looked up.

"I'm so sorry" she said again. "I shouldn't have left you"

She wiped her eyes and stood up. She looked around and smiled.

"Winterfell is beautiful" she said and looked back at the lady from before. "Bran is this Sansa?"

"It is" Sansa held out a hand. "You are?"

"Oh right, Rhaenyra Targaryen" she shook her hand.

"Another one" Sansa muttered and looked behind Rhaenyra.

Rhaenyra turned around. She walked around Sansa and stood next to bran as she saw her sister ride in with Jon. Jon's eyes landed on the boy in the wheelchair and he jumped of his horse and ran to him. Jon trapped him in a hug and kissed his forehead.

"Look at you!" Jon said. "You're a man now!"

"Almost" Bran said and interlinked his hand with Rhaenyras.

Jon was confused by his brothers words and it also made Sansa confused. Jon turned and looked at Sansa. She smiled and they hugged. Bran looked at Daenerys who was staring at Rhaenyra. The youngest Targaryen rolled her eyes and kept looking around.

She was mad at her sister, not only for not telling her she was going to help them, but for ignoring her the night before. Rhaenyra knew it was petty to be mad at her sister for that but she knew something else was wrong.

Everyone was in the main room and people argued about Jon and being named king. Rhaenyra couldn't care, she was sitting next to Bran with her head resting on his shoulder. That's all she wanted, after two years of being away from him all she wanted was to be with him. Though... He was different, he explained that he was the Three-Eyed raven now but it didn't feel like her Brandon.

"We named you king!" lady Mormont yelled.

"And I and great full for that-" Jon began.

He was interrupted and the whole room began to yell.

"Bran?" Rhaenyra asked him through the loud arguments. "Where's Meera and Jojen"

"Jojen died to get me to where I am now" He said looking at Jon. "Meera left to go to her family, only her father left now though"

Tears fell from Rhaenyras eyes. Her brother was dead and he sister was miles away. Bran was colder but he knew she needed it so he hugged her tightly.

Bran looked at a maester and he nodded. The maester moved Rhaenyra onto Brans lap and she sat and cried into his chest. Daenerys watched as the maester pushed his chair and the two left the room.

They made it to Brans room and they were sat by the fire. Rhaenyra was still crying and shaking while bran hugged her.

"How did- how did he go" she sobbed.

"White walkers" bran said.

She cried more knowing that being killed by the dead would have been painful and a horrible way to go, especially at 15.

"He knew the cost" Bran said to her.
