Aegon wanted to show off to ara but she was naughty, so she got grounded. He had claimed a dragon. Everyone said his dragon was the most beautiful with his golden shimmering scales. He felt like a total bad ass. Of course his brother were completely jealous. Daeron whined that he didn't even have an egg. Aemond cried out he needed a dragon more than his big brother. Life wasn't fair.

Ara agreed that life wasn't fair. She was trapped in her room while her siblings got to go to the dragon pit and watch aegon fumble with commands

But Being grounded in her room turned out to be  not so bad. Because it gave her time to play with her plants. Helaena had a gardener name Miguel pick her a little peach tree they were going to plant.

Ara played with the leaves finding the right spot in the room for it in the little pot.

"You can grow now. I know the man said you wouldnt have fruit but you can grow." Ara encouraged "im starving they havent fed me in like an hour!"

"I feel bad grounding her." Alicent remarked

"She wanted to sell daeron," viserys corrected.

"She was joking!"

"I dont think so." Viserys chuckled "shes a sweet girl with an attitude."

"My aranyani doesnt have an attitude." Alicent demanded

"Her twin says otherwise." Viserys reminded her.

"Ser criston!" Alicent called out but it was ser harold.

"Your grace?"

"Oh. I thought that you had switched." Alicent breathed back

"He has night shift." That excited her.

"Hey sweetheart," criston said with a knock

"Are you here to rescue me?" Ara declared running to him.

"Just thought you want a snack."

"You aren't rescuing me?" Ara whimpered

"Sorry sweetie."

"Aw man." She whined marching back around her room.

"You hungry?"

"I had peaches." Criston looked to the peach tree in full bloom. "Hela had it brought up for me since im a prisoner."

"You are not a prisoner." Criston chuckled.

"What do you call being trapped in my room with out any way of escape!" Criston glanced to the door and window to the balcony and then back to aranyani. "I repeat no way of escape! No cookies! No kisses from mama whenever i want! Its prison!" She demanded.

"Aranyani-" alicent stopped herself. "Ser criston." She smiled

"I hope i didnt over step. I wanted to check on the princess-" criston added as ara ran past him to alicent.

"Mama may i offer you a freash peach for my freedom?" Ara questioned alicent chuckled

"Can you promise not to try to sell your brother?" Alicent countered. Ara didnt answer just smiled holding out her peach. "Ara can you promise-"

"Mama may i offer you a freash peach for my freedom?" Ara questioned Again.

"Aranyani." Alicent demanded with her best mother knows best tone

"Fine." She grumbled.

"Shes something special alright." Criston remarked as he walked alicent to her chambers that night.

"When i heard you were on knights watch..."

"Yes?"

"It excited me." She admitted.

"Oh?" Criston added.

"Yes but seeing you with ara makes me remember why i love you over and over again." She pulled him into her chambers closing the door behind her.

Although aemond told ara every night it seemed the next dragon that comes our way is mine. I know it. She said that she wanted her egg to hatch. Aemond wanted a real dragon, a big dragon, one that he could compete with his brother. Aegon couldn't have the most bad dragon he wanted it. The two eldest brothers were always competing. Ara didnt know why. But she was the baby of the family and she was the favorite so competition really wasn't part of her daily life. Unless she was trying to get rid of her twin.

Aras jaw dropped when her egg started to hatch. Her jaw dropped even farther when not one but two little heads popped out. One two. One. Two. One... two dragons?

Aras secondary thought to oh my goodness i got two dragons was i will give one to aemond. He needs a dragon. I have two but as the little heads broke free ara noticed one little body.

"One dragon... two heads? One body.,, one dragon?" Ara questioned confused. Aemond deflated. Ara got a dragon and he didnt. The first ever two headed dragon.

Terra and Flora.

Aemond was happy for his sister but it didn't stop him from being jealous.

" you can play with my Dragon Aem." Ara told him holding it out her big green eyes so happy that her egg had hatched.

"Thanks ara..." he whispered, reaching out to touch the little dragons head.

" you will get one too. Before Daeron thats for sure."  Ara declared

" why do you think that?"

" because you deserve a dragon and he doesn't."









A/N

Before you say it because I know you people and many of you complained and whined in all of aranyanis other stories when I hinted that criston was the father and she cant have a dragon well it does not say in the lore that someone not of dragon seed cannot have a dragon. It is just very unlikely.   So before you start commenting and driving me freaking crazy do us all favor and remember this is fictional- fanfic and I can do whatever I want.  I don't wanna read condescending comments, acting like you know everything.  Aranyani has a two headed dragon. Get over yourselves.
