Dragon Born

The Arrival

Handmaidens rushed up and down the palace of Dragonstone as Queen Rhaella went into labour. Her 7 year old son, Viserys was right beside her, holding her hand.

She cried as she tightened her grip, making Viserys wince but he stayed strong.

It had been an hour, then there was a loud wail that boomed the whole room, it wasn't the queen, it was a baby.

The princess has arrived!

The handmaiden wiped the princess and wrapped her in soft blanket. She handed the queen her newborn daughter. Rhaella was breathing heavily, she took her daughter in her arms, admiring her features, Viserys smiled as he saw his new sister.

"She's beautiful. What will you name her, mother?" the young Targaryen Prince asked. With a smile "Daenerys."

They smiled down at the new addition, Daenerys.

"Wait, there's another." the doctor said.

The queen teared up but she went with it anyway. The pain was too much for her but for her daughter- er- daughters, she would do it a hundred times.

*Skip some small time*

There was a small wail of a baby's cry. Viserys was so relieved as his hand was now sore but he didn't care, not one bit. He just wanted his mother to not feel this pain anymore, hearing a baby's cry made him excited to have a baby sister, TWO in fact for that matter.

They wiped her and handed her to the queen, who was breathing heavily. Viserys and Rhaella took in her features.

"There are other news, Your Grace." the doctor said, holding a worried expression on her face. "Don't tell me there is another one" the queen said out of breath.

"No, the birth was a success." the doctor said "but the second baby has a problem with her lungs." She explained.

Queen Rhaella was shocked. "How? I was told they are perfectly healthy."

"Yes but when you escaped Kings Landing, there was fire everywhere, you inhaled the smoke and it went to her." The doctor explained.

"Will she be fine?" the queen asked as her voice cracked. "She will but she will have some breathing problems like Wheezing, couching, short of breath." She explained.

The queen thanked the doctor and she left, leaving the Targaryen Queen and young prince to take in the news.

They have been through so much already, their Kingdom was attacked, Rhaella lost her husband Aerys and her elder son, Rhaegar, it was too much.

Not realizing, a tear tricked down her face and Viserys wiped it with his small hands. "Do not cry mother, you have cried enough today." He said.

She knew she would be next and with no doubt, after inhaling that much smoke, the doctor said that it was either her or the baby- um- babies that would survive.
Like any mother any mother, she took the fall for her daughters.

"My son....." she said as she caressed his cheek. "I need you to be strong for me, there will come a time where you will have to protect your sisters." "But what about you?" he asked concern written on his face. "I will be watching over you three, protecting you." she said as tears tricked down her face.

Realization hit him.

"No mother, you can't. You can't leave me, please." He pleased as tears fell down his pale cheeks. "I need you to be strong, for me, Daenerys and... Aleara." She said with a smile.

"But mother-"

"I will always love you, my Targaryen warrior. Tell your sisters, I will always love them too. Protect them, love them, teach them of their origin. Protect Aleara, she needs you. Please my son." she said.

"Mother, you can't leave me. I beg of you. Please." he begged as he laid his head on her hand, crying.

The queen took her last breaths "I love you." "I love you too, mother." he said in the middle of sobs. With that, her eyes closed and that was it.

"Mother please, please stay. You can't...." he trailed off as he looked up, only to see her with her eyes closed. Tears escaped his blue eyes.

"Mother?" He asked. No response.

"Mother?" He asked again as he shook her hand but it didn't move. He got up from his chair and cupped his tiny hands on her cheeks, "Mother? Please, wake up." No response.

He cried, stroking her snowy white hair. He cried and cried, till he stopped. He wiped his tears and went out the room. He walked all the way to the nursery.

Viserys' face was red out of crying. He wiped his tears as they tried pricking down his eyes and walked to the nursery.

When he got there, he saw a handmaiden with a baby bottle.

"Hi" he greeted softly then the handmaiden turned and saw him.

"Your Grace." she bows down. "Can I see my sisters, please?" "Sure."

He went over to the two cribs, there laid his sister's, both peacefully sleeping. He played what his mother said in his head.

"Protect them. Love them."

He looked at them. He knew who is who. He didn't need any permission. He took Aleara in his arms carefully and looked at her, taking every detail on her face. He smiled as she slightly opened her eyes, they were were blueish with silver.

"Would you like to feed her?" the handmaiden asked the young Targaryen Prince.

He nodded and sat down on a couch, she took the bottle and fed her. Daenerys was already fed and she was sound asleep.
He was a bit rusty and he thought it was kind of weird but he got used to it and smiled.

Then he was done feeding her and burped her. The handmaiden left and he just admired his sister. She took some features of his. He went to put Aleara in her crib. He looked at both of them.

"I'll always protect you dear sisters." he said softly then kissed their foreheads. He left and went to his chambers.
