Chapter 5: Death Of A King

*Siiinnnngggg*

*Thud*

*Splurt*

"ARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHH MY HAND! MY HAND!" King Areys shouted out in pain as his right hand fell to the ground and blood started to gush out from shoulder.

Sheathing his great sword on his back, Bart kicked the king which resulted in the king sitting down on the first steps of the Iron Throne.

As soon as Areys was on the step, two shadow knights restrained him and gagged him so that he won't be screaming anymore. Still looking at Areys, Bart removed his helmet and asked Arey "Remember this face?"

That got the attention of the King and the pyromancer, as they looked at the face of their assailant, they were surprised at first then despair came on to them.

Smirking at then he said "Look's like you haven't forgotten the face of my brother. That's right, I'm not Brandon, I'm Barthogan, his younger twin."

When they heard that the man in front if them is not a ghost but the twin brother, they both started to trash around to get freed from the shadow knights.

Chuckling at their actions, Bart said "There's no use. You won't be able to get free from my Knights. They're as strong as Knights come."

Just as he said that, the door to throne room opened and man wearing white cloak came in. When Bart heard the sound of door opening, he had already equipped his helmet, turning his head towards the entrance, he saw a young man of the same age as his.

The young man who entered the throne room saw the king on his bum, the pyromancer on his knees, four black knights restraining them and another knight towering over the king with a helmet that is in the shape of a wolf directly looking at him. Without second thought he took out his sword to fight, but he couldn't move because someone or something was restraining his whole body.

Right then, the young man heard the Wolf Head speak "Fallon, take this is the man. He will lead you to the cahce of wildfire that they have made and buried under King's Landing, dug them up and store them. But don't forget to bring four barrels here."

"As you command my Lord." Bowing to him once, she went near him and took the custody of the pyromancer and dragged him out of the throne room.

After she left, Bart looked at the young man and said "You must be the remaining King's Guard, Jaime Lannister. You won't know me, as I haven't been around Westeros for a decade. But you would know that my brother and father, they died in this same room under the order of this bitch here. Fire is his champion and all."

Jaime's eyes went wide as realization dawned up on him, but then confusion came to him so he asked "But Brandon's brother Eddard is already fighting ath the Trident against the prince's army. So who ar.....?"

"One minute." Bart stopped him while showing his hand towards him as he got a message from Albern 'My Lord, we have secured the Prince, he was fighting against someone with a warhammer and deer antlers as his helmet. Bertha is handling him now, I'll be at the Red Keep with the prince as soon as possible.'

'Good job.' Replying to Albern, Bart looked at Jaime and said "Just know that I am a brother of Brandon Stark and son of Rickard Stark."

Turning towards Areys, Bart signalled his knights to keep him stay upright. When Areys was standing forcefully by the knights, unequipping his gauntlets he started to beat the kings body relentlessly.

*POW**POW**POW**POW**POW**POW**POW*

Areys could only whimper out in pain as he was gagged by the shadow knights. With each punch to the body, Bart repeatedly muttered out "This is for my father Rickard! This is for the stupid Brandon!"

Few minutes later, Bart stopped and looked at the crumbled form of the King Areys. Breathing out, he looked up to the ceiling of the throne room to calm himself down. Right then, Diana, Dante, Elwira and Ezekiel entered the throne room with two men, right behind them, Fallon arrived with fifty shadow knights carrying two barrels each.

Turning to them, Bart said "You have my thanks for bringing these men the wildfyre that has been buried under Kings Landing."

"The what?" Jaime asked surprised.

"Ah.. Right, you didn't know. Your King here wanted to blow up the entirety of King's Landing if the Rebels ever won the war." Shaking his head, Bart muttered to himself "Madness goes hand in hand with incest."

Looking back at the three men who were dragged to the throne room, Bart said "Only one of you know who I am, so I'll introduce myself. I am the son of Lord Rickard Stark and brother of Brandon Stark. Remember them? I heard what you guys did to my father and brother under this madman's orders, so my men are going to do the same with you."

When Bart said that, the three men were terrified and started to trash around so that they could escape form the clutches of a man who is here to enact revenge. But, that only made their sufferings even greater as Dante broke their arms and legs in one blow while saying "You shouldn't have done what you have done to our Lord's father."

Picking up the king from the floor, Bart put him in on a chokehold, not strong enough to kill him, and ordered his knights "Hold those three on chokehold and burn them with wildfire from neck down. Protect their head with everything you got. Even this Mad King should burn like that."

"Stark! Don't do this!" Jaime shouted from his position.

Chuckling at that shout, Bart asked "What? You want to save your king? You think you can?"

"....." Jaime didn't say anything as he was sure that he won't be able to beat close to eighty people single handedly.

"Thought so. Burn them up Knighs!" Then lowering his head Bart said in high Valyrian "Vestā bona perzys iksis aōha kosh hae iksā iā zaldrīzes paktot? sȳrī sylugon naejot botagon se perzys se lo iksā iā real zaldrīzes, pār kesā botagon

(You said that fire is your champion as you are a dragon right? Well try to survive the fire and if you are a real dragon, then you will survive.)"

Hearing High Valyrian from a Norhterner surprised Jaime and the King, but the King started to say something while being gagged. So, Bart took out the cloth that was placed over the King's mouth and heard the King say "Iksan iā zaldrīzes! kesan botagon se perzys! yn ao! morghūljilā isse se perzys! hahahahahahaha

(I AM A DRAGON! I WILL SURVIVE THE FIRE! BUT YOU! YOU WILL DIE IN THE FIRE! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA)"

The king kept on laughing out loud and when his laughter died down there was a smile of victory on his face, but that fell as soon Bart said his next words "Ao Targārien's emagon zaldrīzes ānogar isse aōha veins se perzys dakogon rȳ ziry paktot? sȳrī, gīmigon bisa, se Stārke's emagon zokla ānogar isse īlva veins se suvion iāragon rȳ īlva bodies. Nyke ȳdra daor gīmigon lo ēdā forgotten, yn Stārke Lentor ēdas issare mēre hen rovaja allies hen Targārien kesrio syt hen Vāedar Suvio Perzo, yn ao pryjatan bona bridge skori ao ossēntan ñuha kepa se lēkia

(You Targaryen's have dragon blood in your veins and fire runs through it right? Well, know this, the Stark's have wolf blood in our veins and ice flow through our bodies. I don't know if you had forgotten, but House Stark had been one of the biggest allies of Targaryen because of the Song Of Ice And Fire, but you broke that bridge when you killed my father and brother.)"

After hearing what Barthogan had said, some clarity returned in the eyes of the Mad King as he mumbled out in low voice that only Bart could hear "Maesters. narys. zaldrīzoti. narys. ñuha. riñar. Vāris. rahegar. iksan. vaoreznuni

(Maesters.... poison.... dragons.....poison.....my...children....Varys.....Rahegar...I'm....sorry...)" As soon as he finished mumbling out, madness returned in the eyes and he started to laugh hysterically.

Barthogan ordered his knights to burn the four men from neck down with wildfyre. 

"RARARHAHRHARHARGARHGARHARGHGARGARGARARGGAR" Agonizing scream of four men was heard from the Red Keep that day, everyone thought that some poor soul has been caught in the hands of the Mad King and was being burned. Only Elia and Jaime knew the truth of the matter on that time.

When the four men slumped over, Bart said "Cut their heads off, place the pyromancers head where they place the traitor's heads are placed." Then looking at the dead King, Bart said "Place his head at the entrance of the Red Keep."

Nodding at his orders, Diana and Dante sliced the necks and took their heads to position them as ordered by their lord. Bart on the other hand was mulling over the words spoken by King Arey's 'Masters poisoned the dragons, they poisoned his children, someone name Varys is connected to Rhaegar somehow. I don't know what it is, but I'll have to find the bottom of those things and know if there are more hands at play here.'

Half an hour later, outside the Red Keep, people were surprised to see a head at the entrance of the Red Keep, they didn't mind it at first. But when a large knight with hundreds of black knights came through the King's Gate of King's Landing while the Prince Rhaegar on his back, they started to follow the group and reached the entrance of the Red Keep. Rhaegar who had been confused about the whole thing from the moment he was rescued from his death at Trident, saw the head of his father muttered out "Father!"

That, created a chaos in the King's Landing as men and women who heard their Prince say father, shouted out after recognizing the head "The King is dead!"

"The Mad King is dead!"

As soon as the news was spread in the King's Landing, all the informants in the capital started to sent ravens to their lords, informing the death of the Mad King and that he was murdered by someone who have infiltrated the Red Keep and kidnapped the Prince from the Trident.
