Wild Side

Chapter 4

Chapter 4| The KingsRoad & Kings Landing

Lyanna, Arya, Sansa, Lord Stark, Ashter, and Jon were leaving today. Bran still hasn't woken up and Lady Stark was by his side, not removing from her place. Lyanna and Jon went to farewell Bran one last time. Lyanna was wearing her wooden ring, as was Jon. People thought that it was a sibling thing, which why Lyanna thanks the Old and New Gods, for the people being stupid. Lady Stark looks at Jon dismissively, but gave Lyanna a warm weak smile.

"I came to say goodbye to Bran." Lady Stark wasn't looking at Jon at all.

"You've said it."

Jon walks over to the other side of Bran's bed. Bran is still comatose. Lyanna could remember his body in her hands when she found him from the Tower and the horror shall live up with her till the end of her days.

"I wish I could be here when you wake up. I'm going north with Uncle Benjen. I'm taking the black. I know we always talked about seeing the Wall together, but you'll be able to come visit me at Castle Black when you're better. I'll know my way around by then. I'll be a sworn brother of the Night's Watch. We can go out walking beyond the Wall, if you're not afraid." Jon glances at Lady Stark. She is now crying and looks back at him hatefully. In the background Lyanna sees Lord Stark entering.

"I want you to leave."

Jon looks between Lord and Lady Stark with a mournful look on his face, then kisses Bran on the forehead and leaves with Lyanna. They walk to the courtyard where Robb and Ashter stand. Jon gets his saddle and Lyanna looks tearful.

"You've said goodbye to Bran? He's not going to die. I know it." Jon looks at Lyanna and Robb.

"You Stark's are hard to kill."

"Maester Luwin says he'll live. And I trust him. What about my mother?"

"She was very kind."

"Good." Lyanna couldn't believe her husband was going to leave her. Ashter noticed her tearful face and stands beside her, placing a hand on her shoulder. Jon fastens the saddle to his horse and looks at Robb but mostly Lyanna behind him.

"Next time I see you, you'll be all in black."

"It was always my color."

"I bet anything you'll be Lord Commander up there in no time!" Ashter comments, while still gripping on Lyanna's shoulder.

"Farewell, Snow."

"And you, Stark."

Robb and Jon embrace, and they notice Lyanna was crying, making a space between them and Ahster let Lyanna go and slip between them both and they embrace in a hug. Lyanna kisses Jon's cheek, even though she will bid him goodbye at the Kings Road, Lyanna wanted one in Winterfell. Lord Stark comes out and Lyanna looks at Robb really carefully.

"Good Luck to you Stallion-Stark. Gods knows when I'll see you again. Perhaps you'll be married and have little lords and ladies already." Lyanna hugs Robb once more before riding on her mare. Joffery gave her a look that wasn't pleasant, but Lyanna had her sword close near her.

"Fuck off twat!" She spat at Joffery and Rhaella growls at Joffery. King Robert and Lord Stark laughs echoed through behind them.
