The Old Bear’s Daughter - Part 9

Masterlist

*****

"How are you keeping?" the man asked as he arrived at their cell. It was an older looking man with greying hair and a face that looked like it had been exposed to a lot of harsh weather on the open sea.

"Great," Gendry replied sarcastically, "Never better."

"It was just a bit of blood," the man said, confusing Juliana.

Gendry shook his head, "I should have known. Every time a highborn asks my name, it's trouble," he added, making Juliana look to the ground.

"Most of you don't really see us as people, do you? Just a million different ways to get what you want," he added.

"I'm not a highborn." the man said.

"She called you Ser. I heard it."

The man sighed and sat down, leaning against their cell door, "A recent state of affairs. I was born in Flea Bottom just like you."

Juliana scooted a bit closer to listen to the man's words as Gendry replied, "Sure, you were. You're my friend. You're here to help."

"I lived below the street of Flour."

"How far below?" Gendry asked, not really believing what the man said. "How close to the Red Keep were you?"

"The shit that poured from the privy pipes flowed down the side of Aegon's Hill along Tanner's Row and right in front of my front door on Gin Alley", they finished together.

Gendry now turned his head to look at the man as he continued, "The Street of Steel, with your armour and your knights? Pfft. You lived in the fancy part of town. And here we are now. Two boys from Flea Bottom and a northern lady of the wall locked in the castle of a southern king."

"Come a long way," Juliana told them.

There was a moment of silence before Gendry asked, "So how did you become a lord?"

"Oh, that's a long story."

"Better not, then, I'm a bit busy."

"Many years ago I helped King Stannis out of a difficult situation. He rewarded me with a lordship. And this."

He held up his right hand so the two of them could see that four of his fingers had been chopped half off.

"That makes you Davos Seaworth, the Onion Knight," Juliana acknowledged.

"Aye, but I didn't want to be a lord. I nearly didn't accept."

"Why did you?" Gendry asked.

"I did it for my son. I didn't want him to step over a river of shit every time he stepped through his front door. I wanted him to have a better life."

"And does he?" Juliana asked.

"He's dead," Davos replied.

Juliana and Gendry then fell silent, neither knowing what to say.

"How'd he die?" Gendry then asked as Davos stood up.

"Following me," he said before turning and walking away.

*****

"Before we left the tavern with the Brotherhood, Thoros told me that you are a walg."

"A walg?"

"A Wack?"

As Juliana raised her eyebrows, Gendry groaned, "You know what I mean."

She chuckled, "I'm a warg. It means I can take over the body of an animal."

Gendry looked as if he didn't believe her.

"You remember those torturers in Harrenhall? The rat that bit one of them?"

"That was you?" Gendry asked and as Juliana nodded he asked, "So you can just take over any animal, no matter what?"

"Well, it's easier if I'm familiar with the animal but if I'm in danger or highly emotional it usually works with others too."

Gendry seemed amazed with that and proceeded to ask her different questions about her abilities until he felt like he was an expert on the topic himself.

*****

Juliana had slept while leaning against Gendry but she was quickly awoken as the door of their cell was opened.

"What are you doing?" Gendry asked.

"You're leaving," Davos replied.

"Is this some kind of trick?"

"Yes, but not on you."

He threw a bundle of cloth at them and Juliana realized that it was two cloaks. She handed one to Gendry and swung the other one around her own shoulders.

*****

The three of them were walking on the beach of Dragonstone. Gendry had just put the hood of his cloak down while Juliana still had hers up.

"Aim for that star," Davos told them, pointing at the brightest star at the sky, "Don't stop. There's bread and water. Go slow with it."

They got to a small boat and Davos placed a bag in one side of it, "If you finish it off, no matter how thirsty you get, don't drink seawater."

"I know not to drink seawater," Gendry told him as the man pushed the boat into the ocean for them.

Ignoring his remark, Davos continued, "Row for a full day and night and you'll reach Rook's Rest. You'll want to stop there. Don't. She'll find you."

"Where should we go?" Juliana asked as she got into the boat, spending the first few years of her life on an island, she knew her way around a boat and didn't have difficulties with keeping her balance.

"Keep the coast on your left side until you reach King's Landing."

"The gold cloaks are looking for me," Gendry explained.

"They were looking for me for 20 years. Do they know your face?"

"No."

Davos nodded, "I'd worry more about the Red Woman."

Gendry climbed into the boat, making it shake dangerously as he sat down.

"You ever been in a boat before?" Davos asked as he saw Gendry hold onto the sides of the boat tightly.

"No."

"You know how to swim?"

"No."

Davos sighed, "You're lucky your lover is an islander. Now go on."

"Why are you doing this?" Gendry asked, ignoring his comment while Juliana took the rudders in her hands.

"Because it's right. And because I'm a slow learner."

"When you get to Flea Bottom, have a bottle of brown for me!" he called after them as Juliana moved the boat forward with strong strokes.

"You think we'll ever see him again?" she asked.

"I don't know," Gendry replied as they watched Davos return to the castle.

The Old Bear’s Daughter - Part 8

Masterlist

*****

"What are you doing? Let go of him!"

As Julianna heard Arya's yelling she quickly walked away from the horse she had been reading and towards the shouting only to see that two armoured had gripped Gendry while Arya was yelling at them to stop. A woman dressed completely in red stood between Thoros and Beric and watched.

"The fuck are you doing?" Juliana asked.

"The Lord of Light needs this boy," Beric explained.

"Did the Lord of Light tell you that or did she?" Arya spat as Gendry was forced onto a wagon.

A knight came over to them with two money bags, making Juliana walk over to Beric angrily, "This isn't even for your stupid god, is it? This is for gold!"

Suddenly the woman in red spoke up, "And we will double the price if you send the warg with us."

Before Juliana even knew what was happening, two men gripped her arms. Quickly, she kicked in the legs of one of them, using her free hand to pull her dagger from her boot to slit the throat of the other one before stabbing the man on the ground.

She threw her dagger into the neck of another man that was approaching her and knelt down to pick up the weapon of the man she killed first but couldn't continue her work as the red woman suddenly stood in front of her and blew red dust into her face.

Without wanting to, Juliana breathed the dust in and choked a moment before the world around her turned black.

*****

"After all the running and fighting, here I am, back where I started," Gendry said as he stood next to Melisandre on the upper deck of the ship they had been brought to, looking at the palace of King's Landing, while Juliana was in a cabin below, still unconscious from the mysterious powder the red woman had used.

"Do you miss it?" said red woman asked.

"King's Landing?"

"Your father's house."

Gendry shook his head, "Never had a father. Never wanted one."

"Haven't you ever wondered where your strength came from? Your talent for fighting?"

"I'm lowborn," he told her, "As low as can be. My mother was a tavern wench."

"Mine was a slave. So was I. Bought and sold, scourged and branded, until the Lord of Light reached down, took me in his hand and raised me up," she stared at him with bright blue eyes.

"I was born in Flea Bottom," he looked down.

"Your blood is noble."

"Are you saying my father, he was some lord or...," Gendry trailed off.

Melisandre turned to look at the Red Keep, "There. Your father's house."

Gendry looked up and shook his head, "I'm just a bastard."

"The bastard of Robert of the House Baratheon, First of His Name, King of the Andals and the First Men. Why do you think the gold cloaks wanted you? There is power in a king's blood."

*****

"Where are you bringing her?" Gendry asked as he saw a man carry Juliana away.

"She will stay unconscious for a day or two," a knight explained without answering the young man's question.

*****

Gendry was looking around the room he was in as the red priestess entered with a box in her hand. He was now dressed in finer clothing and had been bathed.

"Have you ever seen one like it?" Melisandre asked, referring to the golden firepit he was looking at while she placed the box on a nearby table.

"I've never seen anything like any of this. Not in my life."

"It's shocking, isn't it, the first time you encounter real wealth? when I was your age, I lived on a bowl of stew a day. And stew is a kind word for it."

"In Flea Bottom we call them bowls of brown. We'd pretend that the meat in them was chicken... We knew it wasn't chicken."

"Here, taste this," Melisandre handed him a goblet. As Gendry was reluctant, she added, "You think I'm trying to poison you? This isn't poison."

Slowly, Gendry walked forwards and took the goblet of her hand. Lifting it to his lips, he took a sip before putting it down. "That's-" he didn't finish his sentence as his legs gave out underneath him.

He felt as she heaved him up onto the bed in the room but wasn't able to move a single muscle in his body.

She walked over to the small table with the box on it and opened it, taking pincers to get a small wiggling creature out of it. A leech.

"Don't worry, it won't take much," she said before ripping his shirt open with one hand and placing the slimy creature on his naked chest.

*****

When Juliana finally woke up, she was lying in a dimly lit cell with Gendry across of her.

"Where are we?" she asked groggily as she sat up.

"Dragonstone," he replied. "We're King Stannis' prisoners."

Juliana cursed and rubbed her hands over her face, "How long was I out?"

"About a day or so," he replied as they heard the footsteps of a man echo through the dungeons. They looked to see a man carrying a torch walking towards them.

Masterlist

*****

"So, who will it be?" the Hound asked, "Should we find out if your fire god really loves you, priest? Or you, archer? What are you worth with a sword in your hand? Or is the little girl the bravest one here?"

Beric looked back at Arya, "Aye, she might be. But it's me you'll fight."

The people around them started to gather to watch what would happen.

"Lord, cast your light upon us," Thorus spoke in a deep voice.

"Lord of Light, defend us," the men chanted as Anguy cut loose the Hound.

"Show us the truth," Thoros continued, "Strike this man down if he is guilty. Give strength to his sword if he is true. Lord of Light, give us wisdom."

Arya exchanged a look with her friends who seemed to find it just as unusual as she did.

"For the night is dark and full of terrors."

"For the night is dark and full of terrors," the men echoed him.

Beric got on his knees and Thoros used a sword to cut into the kneeling man's hand while Sandor was swinging around the sword he had been given.

Then, Beric took the sword of Thoros and quickly dragged his bloody hand against the shaft of it, making the sword go up in flames.

Juliana watched as the Hound stumbled back in fear before gathering himself and taking a shield of a man in front of him.

Beric, who now also had a shield in hand, swung around his sword as he faced the Hound.

Sandor shouted as he charged forward, clinking blades with Beric. He attacked again but Beric blocked him and then attacked back, his fiery sword being blocked by Sandor's as the defender took a step back.

They stood opposite each other for a moment before Beric started to charge repeatedly making Sandor take steps back while dodging and blocking his opponent's sword.

The two fighters got closer to the crowd, making Arya duck and Juliana could feel Gendry pulling her away from Beric who was swinging around his sword wildly while Sandor was frantically trying to avoid the flames that scared him so.

They moved away from the watchers again and Sandor managed to block another blow with so much force that Beric had to take a step back, which Sandor used to attack again.

Beric managed to block as he turned and seemed to dance back into the battle, swinging at the taller man. Their swords clashed, creating sparks as Sandor became more aggressive and his different barrels around them.

Beric used his shield and pushed Sandor forward, sending him stumbling into a small fire. The tall man yelled before kicking at wooden objects around him and marching forwards again, blocking an oncoming blow and kicking at Beric's stomach.

Juliana watched as the two took turns in attacking and blocking until Sandor managed to hack Beric's shield to pieces.

Beric threw down his demolished shield and started to attack again, forcing the Hound back until the man tripped, holding his shield up to protect himself from further blows.

Seeing as the shield was made out of wood and Beric's sword was still burning, the shield caught fire after it was repeatedly hit, making the crowd chant, "Guilty! Guilty! Guilty!" while Sandor stood back up and started to hit at the shield to kill the flames.

"Kill him!" Arya yelled as Beric charged again.

Sandor blocked and pushed the older man back, shouting in fury and charging forwards. Beric had his arms raised to deliver another blow but Sandor was quicker and stabbed him through the chest, making him fall to the ground, dead.

The crowd fell silent as Thoros dashed forward and leaned onto his friend's lifeless body, "Lord, cast your light upon this man, your servant. Bring him back from death and darkness. His flame has been extinguished. Restore it."

Juliana couldn't make out the rest of the chant as Sandor yelled and rolled himself on the ground to try and extinguish the burning shield.

"Arya, don't!" someone yelled as Arya dashed towards the Hound with a weapon in her hand but was stopped by Gendry before she could kill the man.

"No! Let go of me!" she shrieked "Let me go!"

"Looks like their god likes me more than your butcher's boy," Sandor taunted.

"Burn in Hell!" Arya yelled as Gendry held her down so she wouldn't do anything stupid.

"He will," a voice spoke and Juliana looked away from her friends to see that Beric was on his feet again, "but not today."

*****

Juliana found Gendry working on a piece of metal.

"What are you doing?" she asked.

"Just mending Lord Beric's armour."

Juliana furrowed her brows, "Why?"

Gendry put down his tool, "I'm going to stay on and Smith for the Brotherhood."

"Why would you do that? I'm supposed to bring you and Arya to Winterfell, remember?"

"The only reason you were supposed to bring us there is that she is a Stark," he said as he used a cloth to clean his hands, "I have no business there."

"Then come to the wall with me."

"And serve some purpose I don't believe in? Lay down vows I don't want to uphold? This is where I want to be, the Brotherhood needs good men."

Juliana sighed and there was a moment of silence before she spoke again, "Then I will come back."

"What?" Gendry asked.

"I'll bring Arya home and then come back here."

Gendry stood up and stared at her before taking a step closer.

"What are you doing?", she asked as he stepped even closer but she didn't dare to take a step back. She looked around quickly to see whether someone was watching them.

"Probably something stupid," he replied.

She went to answer but was cut off by his lips on hers. His arms went around her waist, pulling her closer to him but letting her the option of escaping his hold if she wanted to. Instead, she kissed him back feverishly, lifting her hands to the hem of his shirt to pull him closer.

They pulled apart for a moment, looking into each other's eyes before Juliana closed the gap between them again, continuing their kiss.

"If I had a proper forge, I could make it good as new," Gendry commented as e helped Thoros into some armour.

"Doesn't have to look pretty. It just has to keep the arrows out of my heart."

"Why are you helping him?" Arya asked her friend, "He takes us prisoner and now he's our friend?"

"You're not our prisoner, little lady."

"What am I?"

"Our guest. No one's put any chains on you."

"So I can walk away, then?"

"These woods aren't safe for Ned Stark's daughter. You're lucky we found you."

Arya walked away and Gendry turned to look at were Juliana was readying a horse, "What about her?"

Thoros chuckled, "She's from Bear Island. They say every man from Bear Island fights with the strength of then mainlanders."

"But she's not a man."

"Aye, but you shouldn't let that fool you. I have fought with her brother and he used to tell me of the little girl that would sneak out and train in secret when she thought no-one was watching and let's not forget about her gift."

"Her gift?"

"Well, she's a warg."

"What's a warg?"

Thoros went to explain but was interrupted by a yell from one of his men, beckoning him over. "I'm sure she can explain it better anyway," he told him before walking towards his comrade.

*****

"What are you doing? We're about to leave," Arya asked as Hot Pie approached the group of friends with some baked goods.

"I'm staying," the boy told her.

"You're what?" Gendry and Juliana asked.

"I baked some brown bread for the innkeep and she said she never had better. Told Thoros she's keeping me as a payment for all the free meals she's given him. Anyway, it's not me the Brotherhood wants. My brother ain't no king. I'm not a Stark of Winterhell.

"Winterfell," Arya corrected him.

"You sure?"

"I'm sure," she chuckled.

"Well, I made you something," he said and handed two loaves of bread to the girls. Arya's was formed like a wolf while Juliana's was a bear.

"Thank you," Juliana chuckled as she packed it into her bag.

Arya looked at her bread questioningly, "What is it?"

"It's a wolf."

"Yes, it is," Gendry nodded.

Arya patted the back of it, "That's the tail?"

"Yeah."

"Be safe, Hot Pie," Juliana told their friend.

"Yeah, you, too. Don't get stabbed."

Gendry nodded, "You don't...burn your fingers," he patted him on the shoulder and Juliana gave him a nod before the two of them went to join the others, leaving Arya to say her good-bye.

Thoros pointed to a horse, "That one's for you."

Juliana nodded and mounted it, stretching her hand out for Gendry.

"I can't ride," he admitted.

"Just hold on to me, I'll do the rest."

Gendry took her outstretched hand and used the stirrup of the saddle to further help himself up and then sit behind Juliana.

As they watched Arya get lifted up on Thoro's horse, Juliana kicked against the sides of the horse gently and made if move forwards.

Immediately, she could feel Gendry tighten his grip around her waist and move closer to her in fear of falling off.

"Hey Hot Pie," they heard Arya yell from beside them. "It's really good!" she yelled, referring to her wolf-shaped bread.

*****

For the last few miles, Gendry and Juliana had been hooded while someone led their horse and after that, they had been lifted off the horse and led over rocky ground.

When the hoods were lifted off their faces, they stood in a big cave with a fire in the middle, making everything look orange.

"What is this place?" Gendry asked after his eyes got used to the dim light.

"Somewhere neither wolves nor lions come prowling," Thoros told him before walking towards Sandor Clegane, whose hood had just been removed.

"You look like a bunch of swineherds," the man grumbled.

"Some of us were swineherds," Anguy told him, "And some of us tanners and masons. That was before."

"You're still swineherds and tanners and masons. You think carrying a crooked spear makes you a soldier?"

"No," another voice spoke and the people parted to make space for an eye-patch wearing man, "Fighting in a war makes you a soldier."

"Beric Dondarrion? You've seen better days."

"And I won't see them again."

The Hound shook his head, "Stark deserters. Baratheon deserters. You lot aren't fighting in a war. You're running from it."

"Last I heard, you were King Joffrey's guard dog. But here you are a thousand miles from home. which of us is running?"

"Untie these ropes and we'll find out," the Hound prompted referring to the ropes that were still bound around his torso, "What are you doing leading a mob of peasants?"

"Ned Stark ordered me to execute your brother in King Robert's name."

"Ned Stark is dead. King Robert is dead. My brother's alive," he spat on the ground, "You're fighting for ghosts."

"That's what we are- ghosts waiting for you in the dark. You can't see us, but we see you. No matter whose cloak you wear- Lannister, Stark, Baratheon- you prey on the weak, the Brotherhood Without Banners will hunt you down."

"You found god? Is that it?"

"Aye, I've been reborn in the light of the one true God. As have we all. As would any man who's seen the things we've seen."

"If you mean to murder me, then bloody well get on with it."

"You'll die soon enough, dog," It was Thoros who spoke now, "But it won't be murder, only justice."

"And a kinder fate than you deserve," Anguy told him, "Lions you call yourselves. At the Mummer's Ford, girls of seven years were raped and babes still on the breast were cut in two while their mothers watched."

"I wasn't at the Mummer's Ford," the Hound defended himself, "Dump your dead children at some others door."

"House Clegane was built upon dead children," Thoros told him, "I saw them lay Prince Aegon and Princess Rhaenys before the Iron Throne."

"Do you take me for my brother? Is being born Clegane a crime?"

"Murder is a crime!" Anguy yelled.

"I never touched the Targaryen babes! I never saw them, never smelled them, never heard them bawling! You want to cut my throat, get on with it! But don't call me murderer and pretend that you're not."

"You murdered Mycah!" Arya called out, "The butcher's boy. My friend. He was 12 years old. He was unarmed. And you rode him down. You slung him over your horse like he was some deer."

"Aye, he was a bleeder."

"You don't deny killing this boy?" Beric asked.

"I was Joffrey's sworn shield. The boy attacked the prince."

"That's a lie!" Arya yelled, "I hit Joffrey. Mycah just ran away."

"Then I should have killed you. Not my place to question princes."

Beric looked at Arya's angry expression and then turned to Sandor, "You stand accused of murder. But no one here knows the truth of the charge, so it is not for us to judge you. Only the Lord of Light may do that now. I sentence you to trial by combat."
