Chapter Five

Daenerys holding the dragon egg, in a hut, sitting down. She stands up and walks towards a pot with rocks and fire burning beneath them. She places the egg on the rocks. She kneels and stares at it. Irri enters the room holding the soup that Aera asked her to deliver. She stands at the door and looks at Daenerys.

"Khalessi?" Irri asked but Daenerys seems not to hear her.

The dragon egg is burning hot then suddenly Daenerys pick it up. Irri hurriedly places the soup on the side and runs up to Daenerys.

Irri takes the egg from Daenerys hand but she drops it as it was burning hot, she grabs Daenerys hand to see if she was burned. It's unburnt, she looks at Daenerys unbelieving. Daenerys looked at her hand she could see the burn marks on her palm.

"You're hurt," Daenerys said.

"You did not burn, just like Princess Aera," Irri said who was still surprised. Daenerys perks up hearing the name of her sister

"Aera?" Daenerys asked.

"When Mago grabs her she accidentally touches the burning pot where she cooks the soup. It didn't burn her" Irri said in Dōthrāki as she can explain it properly to her.

" Mago grabs her?" Daenerys asked worriedly. She heard what the girl said but what bother her is someone hurt her sister.

Irri nodded. "She's just protecting me, Khalessi. Mago wants her but she manages to burn his arm, I didn't see how. She asked me to deliver this soup to you." Irri said and pointed to the soup on the corner.

" Call my sister, Irri. " Daenerys mandate and the girl nodded.

" Yes, Khaleesi. " After that, the girl leaves the tent to look for the other Princess. Daenerys takes the soup that her sister made for her. She took a sip, she smiled at how appetizing the soup is.

She then turns to the dragon egg, she keeps dreaming about them. She keeps dreaming of them flying in the sky, and she also dreams of her and Aera flying dragons back by black and white dragons while the other dragons fly beside them.

She wishes for that, flying with her sister. Away from everyone. A minute later Aera came with Irri, the Khalessi dismissed the girl leaving the twins alone.

Daenerys caressed Aera's face with her left hand. "What Mago did do to you?" Daenerys asked.

"I'm fine sister, he will not be touching me ever again. I kinda threatened him using the word that my twin sister is the Khalessi." Aera retorts making Daenerys smile.

"There will be a ceremony for me to eat a horse heart and I need you to be there for me," Daenerys informs her about what Irri just notified her.

Aera stops herself from remarking about the horse's heart because she will throw up in no time.

"I'll try my best, I try my best not to throw up during the ceremony." There is full sincerity in Aera's voice and Daenerys smiled.

"Once I gave birth to my son, I promise that we will live a stable life." Daenerys guarantee. Aera just nodded even though she knows what was supposed to happen.

"A son?" Aera asked.

"A son. I just know that is why I decided to name him Rhaego, after our brother Rhaegar" Daenerys said and Aera nodded.

"Or after our mother, Rhaella. " Aera whispered and this made Daenerys smile.

The Ceremony begin when the ritual for Daenerys pregnancy had been prayed to the great stallion as they called it.  Daenerys needs to eat the whole heart of a horse. Daenerys is centered around everyone and the priest chants around her. Khal Drogo looks in anticipation as she continues eating.

Aera stands beside her brother who's looking so disgusted at how Daenerys chum the bloody heart.

Aera who has a high sense of smell can smell the heart and she did everything she could not throw up.

"She has to eat the whole heart? I hope that wasn't my horse." Viserys commented.

"She's doing well." Ser Jorah reassures.

"I feel like I'm gonna puke" Aera whispered and Ser Jorah looked at her concern.

"She'll never keep it down," Viserys commented once more. Both of the Targaryen looked at the priest who chant loudly and Aera who can understand the word because she learn from Irri.

"Tell me what she's saying." Viserys pointed to the woman who was chanting. Jorah glance at the priest.

"The prince is riding. I have heard the thunder of his hooves. Swift as the wind he rides. His enemies will cower before him... And their wives will weep tears of blood. She's going to have a boy." Jorah translated and Aera nodded.

She didn't nod because she knows it was a boy but she nods because she can finally understand the language fluently. A month of learning pays off.

"He won't be a real Targaryen. He won't be a true Dragon." Viserys knows that Daenerys son will be a threat towards his claim.

" Why brother are you scared? What does it mean to be a dragon? Does it need to be a real Targaryen or it needs to have dragon blood? " Aera retorts, this past few days she doesn't give a damn about the man's paranoia, he's gone too far.

Viserys glared at her." I am the last dragon! I am the king and I'm not scared of anything. "

" Are you now? I'm pretty sure Daemon Targaryen would be disappointed. " Aera retorts and even Ser Jorah cannot stop himself from smiling.

" Shut up!" The man hissed at her but the girl just shrugs.

Dany eats the last chunk of the heart as the Priestess continues to sing. Dany chokes and drops, one hand on the ground, the other on her mouth. She almost vomits. Then pushes the bits back into her mouth. Gasping, she lifts herself back to her knees. She swallows the heart. Drogo smiles at her.

Aera was worried for her but she know how strong her sister is. The Priest started to speak again.

"The stallion who mounts the world. The stallion is the Khal of Khals. He shall unite the people into a single Khalasar. All the people of the world will be his herd" Jorah translated again.

Daenerys stand up and this made everyone silent. "A Prince rides inside me! And he shall be called Rhaego" the Khalessi announced. Even Khal Drogo smiles while looking at his wife, proud.

Everyone chants the name Rhaego.

"They love her" Viserys whispered as he looked around. Khal Drogo stands up from his sit and walks towards his wife, he lifts Daenerys and carries her around the platform as the Khalasar keeps chanting.

They didn't notice that Viserys left the place but Aera notice it. She didn't follow the man as she promise Daenerys she will be there for her.

"She truly is a Queen today." Ser Jorah said and look to his side, Viserys was gone and Aera turned to him.

"He will do something stupid, Ser Jorah. Find him and stop him, only you could do that without bloodshed." Aera said and the knight stared at her. In truth, he finds Aera... Different. He can see that Daenerys will be a powerful Queen someday but whenever he looked at Aera, he just knows that the girl is different... A princess with a golden heart yet so dangerous to her enemies.

"Ser Jorah," Aera called out and Jorah nodded and leaves the tent to look for the King who will soon wear his golden crown.

Aera turns to her sister. "The day will not end without another blood of the dragon will perish," Aera whispered.
_

Later on, the feast was held in one of the biggest tents they have. Aera seats beside Daenerys. They are both laughing with their people alongside Ser Jorah. The music throbs. Irri stands next to Khal Drogo, who talks to some Dothraki, as a host of people celebrate Daenerys' feast. Viserys stumbles into the tent.

Aera swallows thickly as she knows what will be the fate of Viserys in a few minutes. Aera squeezes Daenerys hands and points to Viserys.

The man is drunk. "Daenerys" he yelled.

"Where are my sisters!? Aerasanne? Daenerys!?" The drunk man asked. Daenerys turned to Ser Jorah.

"Stop him," Daenerys ordered the man who stand up from his sit and walks towards the man.

Ser Jorah tried to stop him but the man is persistently telling him no one touches the dragon making Aera roll her Eyes.

"The sore-foot king, he walks." One of the Dōthrāki said, Khal Drogo laugh that caught the attention of Viserys. Aera closes her eyes knowing what's to unfold.

Viserys walk in front of the Khal. "Khal Drogo, I'm here for the feast!" The man said.

Khal Drogo pointed to a place in the corner, saying that was the spot for him. Ser Jorah translated what the Khal said and Viserys looks annoyed.

"That is no place for a King" Viserys spat.

"You are no King" Drogo spat back.

Because of that Viserys draw his sword making everyone gasp. Jorah tried to stop him but Viserys pointed the sword at him.

"Keep away from me!" Viserys warned.

Daenerys stands up. "Viserys! Please."

"Stand down, brother. Stop this madness." Aerasanne warned as she step forward but Daenerys stop her. Daenerys always have this habit to protect her younger sister no matter what happens.

"Ow! There you are, sisters." Viserys pause and turned to Aerasanne. "Aerasanne my most disappointing sister" He then averted his gaze to Daenerys." And my whore sister. " Viserys remarked.

" And our fool brother. " Aera retorts. Daenerys squeeze her sister's hand to stop her from making Viserys angry.

"Put the sword down. They'll kill us all." Ser Jorah warned but Viserys didn't even budge.

"They can't kill us, they can't shed blood in their sacred city!" Viserys spat and points the sword to Daenerys. It was Aera who tried to block the sword but Daenerys pull her back, making sure she was safe.

Viserys pointed his sword at her belly, threatening the unborn child in front of his father, great move Viserys, well done.

"Brother, back down," Aera said once more but the man still point the sword at their sister.

"But I can. I want what I came for."

Irri starts muttering to Drogo, translating the words of Viserys.

"I want the crown he promised me. He bought you. But he never paid for you. Tell him I want what was bargained for or I'm taking you back. He can keep the baby. I'll cut it out and leave it for him."  Viserys threatened.

Khal Drogo's eyes darkened as Irri translated everything the man says. Even Aera who did love her brother once now disappears. How can he threaten his own blood, his sister?

"Mother will be disappointed," Aera whispered. Viserys heard this as he step back a few times, the man blink at the realization of what he did, but he cannot back down now.

Drogo starts to speak Dōthrāki to Viserys and he turns back to Daenerys to ask what the man said.

"He says yes. You shall have a golden crown... that men shall tremble to behold."Daenerys translated making Viserys smile.

"That was all I wanted, what was promised." The man said and Aera knows this is the end, she cannot stop the man from dying.

Drogo stands up and touches the belly of his wife, securing that she's safe while he deals with Viserys. Two Dōthrāki grab Viserys by the arms and twist them making him kneel in front of them.

Panic arose from his body as he looked terrified at Khal Drogo and Daenerys. He then turned to Aerasanne who looked at him with pity and sorrow.

"No! You cannot touch me! I'm the dragon! I want my crown." He yelled at everyone. Drogo empties the pot with stew above the fire and he puts the golden chains inside while the horror in Viserys eyes can be seen.

He turns to Daenerys.

"Dany! Stop them! Make them, please!" The man begged but Daenerys just stared at his brother. Viserys turned to Aerasanne, asking for help but the same as Daenerys... She stared back. "Aera... Please!"

As the gold melts, Khal Drogo steps forward to Viserys holding the pot with boiling gold inside of it. He smirked looking at the man.

"A crown for a King!" He exclaims and poured the melted gold on the top of Viserys head, burning the man's flesh as he screams in pain, a scream that doesn't sound like a human.

Drogo crouches down to face Viserys, amusement on the man's face can be seen. The screams stop so does the tremble of his body as the two Dōthrāki who was holding him the whole time let go, they can hear the gold tumbles.

The Last Targaryen Man to ever be known is dead with a golden crown on his head.

"Khalessi... Princess." Ser Jorah called. The man is concerned because the twins just saw their brother die in front of him. Daenerys holds Aera's hand for support.

"He was no Dragon, fire cannot kill a dragon." Daenerys blankly said while staring at the lifeless body of their brother.

Aera looked down avoiding seeing the body of her brother she once loves, the man did love them but the life they had been through made him abusive, physically and emotionally.
