Bodyguard/ Helaena Targaryen / Scott Lang

11. Your Fate

Walking through the gods wood alys brought daemon to the weirwood tree. There was a face. The eyes wee bleeding. Daemon saw... he wasn't sure what he saw. The moment his hand touch the tree visions flashed before his eyes. He saw Raven snow covered the ground in a man, pale white he saw bodies littering the Earth and he was falling through water, drowning, then fire up three dragon eggs a girl among the smoke had three baby dragons in her arms, then the iron throne Before him. He wasn't on the throne however his wife was. Rhaenyra proudly sat the throne. But it was helaena that spoke to him.

" It's all a story... and you are but one part in it." Helaena told him. "You know your part."

Pulling his hand back, he was speechless eyes wavering panic flooded him.

"You know what you must do." helaenas words echoed in his mind. She was so real, it was like she was there, at the tree in harenhal with him but opening his eyes, she was gone, her voice remained. 

"Sister." Aemond said finding helaena on the balcony. "We share the same blood, you and I. I know you wish no harm to anyone. But in a time like this, when the good of the realm depends on us... Our mother is not a dragonrider." Aemond moved closer to her reaching out for her "She cannot understand that you and I have a truer call to heed. Come with me..." he requested. " to Harrenhal. We will lay waste to Daemon and his army. Let our enemy see that we will answer outrage with outrage."

"And if I refuse?" Helaena countered. "Will you burn me as you did Aegon?"

"That is a lie." Aemond rasped.

"I saw it." Helaena countered looking to him finally. "You burned him and you let him fall."

"What you say is treason." aemond warned.

"Aegon will be king again. He's yet to see victory. He sits on a wooden throne. And you..." helaena whispered out. "you'll be dead." aemond stared back at her. "You were swallowed up in the God's Eye, and you were never seen again."

" I could have you killed." Aemond warned.

"It wouldn't change anything." Helaena countered.

"I warn you, Prince." Scott said taking a step forward. "I take my duty seriously and you wont harm Helaena again. Threats included. I will knock on your ass if you dont leave this moment." Aemond chuckled turning to scott. Scott looked to helaena she nodded once. Scott sent a quick jab to aemonds throat sending him stumbling back choking for breath before scott sent a foot to his gut landing him on his ass.

"I am the queen's bodyguard. Your presence is once again threatening her precious body and soul. Im going to have to ask you to leave again or I send you over the balcony." Scott warned. Aemond got up with a huff ready to strike he reached for his dagger but it had fallen and was now in helaenas hands.

"Go brother." Helaena insisted. "Ser Scott takes his job very seriously."

"Give it back helaena." Aemond demanded. She held the dagger over the balcony. There was a small pond below.

"What good would that do? You would hurt scott. I think it swims with the fishes. Just like your fate." Helaena challenged letting the blade fall. Aemond was quick to push past scott with a thud and head down to retrieve it. Scott moved to helaena checking her for injuries.

"He never should have gotten this close."

"Its okay. I know his death and it happens before mine. Aemond wont be the death of me." Helaena assured calmly.

"Still had me worried." Scott countered

"I like it when you kick aemond to the ground." Helaena decided

"Yeah? Well i can do it daily if it makes you smile like that."
