Revival

"Gods be mine where am I now?" Donner asks as he looks around the room, his eyes landing on Jon, "Again?"

His brother turned around to see Donner leaning against a chair still covered in blood from the Sons of the Harpy, "Donner?"

"I don't think I'm anyone else. Unless I'm somehow Arya, " Donner said sarcastically as he hugged his brother, "So Hardhome. Are they really back?" Donner asked, referring to the White Walkers.

"They've always been back. What happened to you?" Jon asked, leaning against the table that has numerous scrolls.

He finally took a minute to look at himself, surveying dried blood that caked his clothes, "To put it simply, today I both killed people and watched a dragon kill people."

Jon was about to speak when a boy entered the room. The boy looked from Jon to Donner before speaking, "Lord Commander. It's one of the wildlings you brought back. Says he knows your Uncle Benjen. Says he's still alive."

Jon and Donner both exchanged glances, "Are you sure he's talking about Benjen?"

The boy nodded his head in confirmation, "Says he was first Ranger. Said he knows where to find him."

Jon rushes out of the room with Donner following close behind. They are met by another man Donner didn't know the name of. The man raised an eyebrow as he looked at Donner, "Man says he saw your uncle at Hardhome the last full moon."

"Benjen has been missing for years. He has to be lying, " Donner said.

The other man holds something in his hands, covered by his furs, "Could be. There are ways to find out."

"Where is he?"

"Over there." The man gestures in another direction.

"Stay over here in the light. You're not a brother. I don't know what would happen." Jon said. Donner obliged, watching as his brother walked past a group of Crows holding torches. On a sign, the word 'Traitor' is carved in deeply. Soon he is out of Donner's sight.

As soon as Jon is away from his brother, he turns around to see he is cornered. Alliser stabs him in the cut, "For the Watch."

Another brother stabs him, "For the Watch."

A third brother stabs him, "For the Watch."

A fourth brother stabs him, "For the Watch."

A fifth brother stabs him, "For the Watch."

Jon falls to his knees, struggling but still alive. The boy, Olly walks up to Jon, "Olly, " Jon says with almost a whisper tone.

Olly stabs him, "For the watch." The boy said.

Jon stays on his knees, then falls backward. The Brothers begin to walk away from him. Jon lays on the ground as a puddle of blood begins to spread through the snow.

Seeing that the group of Crows dispersed in a lighter attitude, Donner wandered around towards their former location. As he grew closer, Donner could see a body lying motionless in the snow, "No..." he said quietly as he neared the body. He broke into a run, "Jon."

He was too late. His brother lay dead in the snow. Suddenly his vision faded to white. He didn't even get to say goodbye.

Once again, he was not in his bed. When he came to, he was standing in a room surrounded by men, "Who the fuck are you?" A man with orange hair asked. It didn't take Donner long to realize he was a wildling.
