{ now pretty baby, i'm running back home to you }

It was safe to say that as soon as two large dragons flew over King's Landing, every alarm bell in the city went off. Screams echoed through the city as people fled into their homes, terrified of the fabled dragonfire that had caused the Seven Kingdoms to bow to The Conquerer.

But there was a new Conquerer now.

Aemond Targaryen raced into the courtyard and after commandeering a horse, quickly rode out to Vhagar, who rested alongside a gravel road in a bed of grass. The large dragon lifted her head, and after a few moments, she took flight.

Aemond didn't recognize the two dragons, but he knew Vhagar could take them.

The large Bronze one circled the city, while the beautiful silver one settled onto sitting atop the Dragonpit as if it was simply a perch.

Aemond led Vhagar closer to the bronze dragon, which was closer to Vhagar's size and thereby a greater threat. But as he drew closer, he thought he saw something familiar on the dragon's back.

The realization struck as he noticed distinct white hair.

"Vhagar, Umbas!" He ordered, and he narrowed his eye until he was certain.

His little queen had claimed a dragon.

Valyria stopped circling until she hovered in front of Vhagar on Vermithor, and she smirked when she saw Aemond's awestruck expression.

"I couldn't find one as big as yours, love, but I'm sure this one will do!" She yelled and knew he had heard.

Aemond had to smile. How could he not?

*.·:·. .·:·.*

Valyria walked into the Small Council chambers, and she saw the same awestruck expressions on her council's expressions as she had seen on Aemond's. Aegon was already seated, but he didn't just stand when she entered.

He stood, and as she passed, he kissed her quickly on the cheek, making the corner of her lips quirk upwards. When she did sit and place her orb in its holder, there was silence.

They were speechless.

Never in the history of the Targaryens had a dragon lord dared to claim two dragons at once. And if they had, they hadn't been successful. Valyria had done what not even Aegon The Conquerer could achieve.

Alicent was the first to speak.

"You...have a dragon now, Valyria. Two." The Queen simply nodded. "I have Vermithor and Silverwing. Silverwing...she followed us from Dragonstone. I assume she'll stay, as she has taken up residence in the Dragonpit. Adding them to our lot, we now have five dragons, four of which are prepared for battle."
