Capítulo 2: Braavos
The waves were rippling and being cut apart as a small but fast ship sailed through them, the wind pushing against the sail of the ship, the sun had just started to disappear over the horizon the light reflecting off of the water as if turning the ocean into gold. Jon's ship the Princess Lyanna was designed personally by himself and the master ship builder in old town, it was designed like a cog but sleeker so it would cut through the waves faster, downstairs was a small crew quarters but mostly storage space and a small galley.
Jon had designed this ship to be able to be sailed by one person, it cost a lot of money to build, many times he had to dive into a dungeon or ancient ruin to pay for the parts for the ship, but to have a ship made out of ironwood not many can attest to that, Jon is just glad that he made friends with Rodrick long ago.
The Princess Lyanna cut through the waves as easily as if it were cutting through air, Jon was currently at the wheel of the ship as they were closing in on their destination. The last of the suns light was about to disappear over the horizon.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
Missandei came running out of Jon's cabin almost falling over as she tries to locate the source of the noise, Jon can already hear Tyene laughing from inside the cabin though he tries to hold it in.
"Don't worry Missandei it's just to signify nightfall" Jon says to her from the top deck.
Looking up she's met with the shining bronze Goliath that was the Titan of Braavos, standing at nearly 400 feet tall a pure testament to the will of the city of ex slaves. The booming sound echoed across the water the wood on the ship seemed to vibrate, it was if their worthiness was being tested a test that they would not like to fail.
"Amazing..." Missandei says in an awe filled voice, seeing the last light of the day shining upon the bronze statue was something the girl had never seen before having spent most of her life on Naath.
"You know stories say that in desperate times when Braavos is in danger the Titan will step down from the islands and enter the sea smashing all the enemies of Braavos" Tyene says to her as she sits down on the side of the ship careful not to fall into the ocean.
At her words Missandei's eyes open even further as she looks up at the Colossal Titan guarding the entrance to the Lagoon. Jon let's out a laugh catching the girls attention.
"Don't listen to her Missandei, such grandiose things are but in fairytales, it's a magnificent building but it also serves as a garrison that protects the entrance to Braavos, any navy wanted to invade would need to get past the murder holes and arrow slits" Jon explains as he points towards the titans thighs showing a grouping of slits.
"Why did you have to ruin my fun" Tyene says in a pout, Missandei feels a bit bad not realising that Tyene wasn't being serious.
"Don't worry Missandei she's only upset because when she first came here with me I told her the same thing" Jon states with a laugh as Tyene glares at him.
"It's okay Tyene I found it to be very believable" Missandei says to Tyene with an innocent smile and wide eyes, now Tyene felt bad for tricking such an innocent person.
"It didn't end there, when Tyene saw that the Titan was just a statue I told her they have a lever that they use for invaders, it unleashes two boulders that swing from between his legs crushing all the ships underneath" Jon says as he tries to keep his laugh in.
Missandei blushing a bit as to stifle a chuckle as she doesn't want to make Tyene feel bad.
"I could forgive that but tell her what you let me do next" Tyene says as she glares at Jon her face slightly red.
At the memory Jon seems to lose control and starts laughing almost managing to turn the ship before straightening them out, though seeing that Jon wasn't going to answer Tyene decided to.
"He told me that newcomers could release the leaver if they pay a bit of gold and tell them something in Valyrian, at the time my grasp on the language wasn't good so I ended up going around the guards asking if I could touch the titans balls for nearly 3 hours before Jon told me" Tyene spits out completely mortified by the memory.
"Well... I'm uh sure that" Missandei can't finish her sentence as she starts giggling, the giggling turning into full laughter, joining join as Tyene just sits there and pouts.
Missandei has had a rough couple months, first she left Naath for the first time in her life, at first she was so excited by the wondrous things she may see and the new types of people that she may encounter. Only to find that people here were not the same as her people, they doubted each other, they hurt each other and even found humour in their pain, seeing slavery first hand was painful even if she didn't experience it.
And then losing her father so suddenly, he was so dedicated to saving his people that he stepped into the unknown doing whatever he could. Missandei just hopes she manages to fulfil his mission.
Meeting Jon and Tyene was nice, they may be the first people she's met that she thinks would fit in on Naath if you take out the fighting and killing. She's glad she met them and hopes that together they can find the Chalice.
Tyene can't help but smile seeing Missandei laugh 'She's been very quiet since she burned her father, it's nice to see her act this way' Tyene thinks to herself, she makes eye contact with Jon who's stopped laughing and has a gentle smile on his face, letting her know he was thinking the same thing.
Having crossed beneath the Titan they have made it to the hundred islands that situated Braavos, the lights of the city shined reflecting off the water as if another city was just under the surface.
"Alright, we'll find a Inn for tonight I will tell you the plan and we wake up fresh in the morning" Jon says to the affirmative nod of both Missandei and Tyene.
Pulling up to the dock Jon ties off the ship and slips the guards a few gold pieces to keep an eye on it.
"Come we should head towards the Green Eel, foods always good there" Jon says as they head down the dock, but as if remembering something he turns to Tyene and holds her hand out expectantly to her.
Tyene pretends not to see him, Jon continually narrows his eyes at her until she huffs and hands over her daggers to him.
"I would've been fine you know..." Tyene says with a pout.
"I know but you play around too much and I want to go to bed" Jon says bluntly.
Missandei looks confused at why Jon had just taken Tyenes blades away from her but she doesn't comment.
Missandei is amazed at the city, even when it is close to nightfall there are still so many people around and they all dress so differently and she's even heard different languages from the common tongue she had learnt.
The trio were close to the Inn by the time the sun had fully set and the moon had risen in the night sky, a young lad of a similar age to Jon approached the group as they came into a clearing, he was cleanly shaven and had curly hair that he had tied into a bun and dressed in a tunic of high quality, very obviously this boy was the son of a rich merchant. The lad approached the group and drew his sword which was a long and thin blade with a circular guard, a typical sword made for the Braavosi water style.
Missandei feels nervous as she hides behind Jon, she didn't know why a man would suddenly want to attack them especially one the same age as them, looking up at Jon however he doesn't look worried but annoyed.
"Don't worry Misa, it's just local customs, those who carry a blade must be prepared to use it at any time, Jon's just been challenged to a duel, it's why he took mine off me, I have a habit of playing with them for too long" Tyene tells Missandei with a smile as she puts her head on her shoulder.
"Do we really have to do this" Jon sighs as his shoulders slumped.
"Yes! Are you a true warrior! Or will you run like a coward!" The boy says in an over exaggerated tone making Jon raise his eyebrows.
"Fine let's get this over with" Jon says as he takes out his short sword that he has sheathed at the back of his waist.
With a war cry much louder than Jon expected from the lad, he throws his whole body into a thrust trying to run Jon through.
Jon side steps the blade and puts his hand on the boys chest and pushes him over a leg he had extended behind him making him fall over. Not only did he fall over but his sword was thrown from his hand as well, Jon then kicks him in the chin ending the fight before it even started.
"You know he'll probably complain to his father right? He seems the type" Tyene says as she looks down at the body giving it a few pokes with her foot.
"Well I could've killed him so I'm sure that'll earn me some forgiveness, now let's go" Jon says bluntly as he steps on the boy walking towards the Inn.
(Green Eel)
The group had managed to get to the Inn without any further incidents much to Jon's pleasure, they were currently sitting in one of the private booths offered to those who pay a little more coin, Jon had found over the years that when discussing plans you really shouldn't do it out in the open or at least wait until it's empty.
Eating a fish stew Jon sighed contently, as much as he loved sailing the sea on his boat the warmth of an inn and freshly cooked food could never really be beaten.
"Now Jon are you finally gonna tell us why we came here" Tyene asked as she set her spoon down to drink from her cup, Missandei payed close attention as well as she had expected them to head to the wall.
"We need to check the information, I don't want us to go on a wild goose chase" Jon replies setting his spoon down.
"In Daenys journal she mentions a man with no face stealing the chalice, who does that remind you of" Jon continues.
"Faceless men!" Tyene shouts out in realisation.
"Exactly, now they must've brought it to Braavos but there are only a few places it would've been placed" Jon says as he places his hand on his chin.
"The house of black and white" Tyene says questioningly
"No they wouldn't house an artefact of another god in there, the place is practically a temple to the god of death, it would either have been kept in the iron bank or the palace of the sea lord" Jon says assuredly.
"If it's the Iron bank we may as well head north on our wild goose chase, they wouldn't lend you a quill without charging you for it" Tyene says to Jon.
"That is true, if the iron bank had sold it then there is a good chance that they did not know what they had the only gods they worship are numbers" Jon replies to her stroking his chin in thought.
"If the iron bank was in possession at some point then there should be a writ of sale, all transactions from the bank require a contract we just need to find it and we can discover the Northern family that acquired the chalice" Jon says to the girls.
"The Iron bank won't reveal such documents even if we gave them all the gold we had" Tyene says dismissing the idea with a wave of her hand.
"So... we take it" Jon says with a smirk.
"Oh? You want to steal from the Iron Bank? What next shall we declare war on the seven kingdoms? Perhaps Misa here can go and fight the mountain for us" Tyene says in an overly exaggerated tone.
"It's not impossible and we won't be breaking into their vault just their records room, much easier" Jon says with a smirk, Tyene rubbed her legs together she hated it when he smiled like that with his cocky attitude, but his confidence definitely made her moist in between her thighs.
Missandei was amazed as well, even the people of Naath knew of the iron bank, many times they have sent envoys in order to barter for the high quality silk that can be produced, though they stopped coming once they realised how dangerous Naath was to outsiders.
"From your cocky grin I assume you have a plan though if it's anything like your usual plans I'm sure we may as well walk through the doors with our swords drawn" Tyene says to Jon as she keeps rubbing her thighs together.
"The iron bank is the most fortified place in Braavos, maybe even in all the free cities" Jon explains as uses his cup to depict the iron bank.
"Obviously, they've had hundreds of years and a near unlimited amount of gold to build it, an entire army could bash on the doors to the bank for a year and it would not give way and that's not even including the vaults" Tyene says casually.
"Having strong walls does not make a place well fortified. Especially if the people inside starve to death" Jon explains.
"They regularly stock enough food in the bank for years, but for water they rely on the lagoon, but only in times of emergency, the ratio between the salt and fresh water make it drinkable but mostly disgusting" Jon continues.
"The spring opens up into a chamber underground, there is hardly any guards that far into the bank and the only locks will be on the vaults so I'll be free to walk in and grab what I need" Jon says concluding his plan.
"I thought you might actually have a plan but it turns out it you're telling me about another foolish dream you've had" Tyene says unimpressed.
"I doubt you are the first to have a plan such as this but unless you have grown gills in the back of your neck you won't make it to the spring" She continues, though the smirk on Jon's face doesn't disappear but in fact grows wider.
"Maybe for the average thief, but if I can design a device that can help us sore through the sky do you think I do not have one that can do the opposite?" Jon questions.
"So what do we do" Missandei asks eager to be of help.
"You'll need to provide a distraction for me, when the bells strike for the midday sun I want you to set this alight in the bank" Jon states as he opens his satchel showing a glass filled with a green liquid, Tyenes eyes widen as she can recognise the substance.
"Wildfire! You want us to set the bank on fire!" Tyene whispers loudly at Jon who puts the bottle back into his bag.
"Just a little fire, but it'll force an evacuation of the bankers while the guards put it out" Jon explains.
"Now the reason you need to wait for midday is because the bankers all take their lunch at the same time, they receive food from a nearby bakers that they own, two women from the bakers bring the food" Jon says gesturing to them.
"So we knock them out steal their clothes and delivery the lunches in their places" Tyene finishes but Jon shakes his head.
"The couriers are given a writ of entry that needs to be stamped by the iron banks seal, they are given one every day and must present it to the guards to gain entry through the side passage" Jon corrects.
"So we lure them into an alley then knock them out and steal their writ" Tyene corrects herself, to which Jon nods.
"You'll need to pour out the wine and switch it for the wildfire, since you'll most likely be searched going in" Jon states, the girls nod.
"Once we have the record of who the cup was sold to then we'll be able to follow its movements, maybe even discover the clan of wildings that took it beyond the wall" Jon concludes.
"Jon may I ask you something" Missandei asks in her usual polite voice.
"Of course Missandei we will be travelling together for a while so do not be afraid to speak your thoughts" Jon says with a gentle smile.
"How do you know so much about the Iron Bank" she says curiously, though this causes Tyene's eyes to widen in realisation.
"That's true why do you know so much" she says narrowing her eyes at Jon. Jon just gives a nervous laugh trying not to answer but between Missandei's large brown eyes staring at him innocently and Tyenes eyes narrowing dangerously he sighs and answers.
"I'd heard of a rumour that the Iron Bank was in possession of something valuable, so I spent a while trying to search for weakness' which is how I came up with this plan, though I could never figure out a way to get into the vaults without a key" Jon admits.
"So what you're saying… is that my first time in Braavos you planned to rob the Iron Bank and you didn't tell me…" Tyene says as her eyes twitch in anger.
"I didn't do it in the end" Jon says with a smile though it quickly disappears as Tyene goes for her daggers.
'I'm glad I took them off her' Jon thought to himself. Though Tyene huffed when she realised she didn't have her daggers on her.
"Forget it, let's go to bed I can already tell it will be a long day tomorrow" Tyene says getting up from the table grabbing Jon and heading up to their room.
"Tyene wait I could only get one room we have to wait" Jon whispers to her.
"No…" she then puts Jon's hand into her trousers and Jon feels pubic hair that's been made soft by the sheer amount of liquids dripping from her sex.
"You'll take responsibility for making me this way" she says pecking him on the lips, before leading him back to the room with Missandei following behind.
In the room Jon is pushed roughly on one of the two beds that were in there, the wood of the bed groaning under the new weight, Tyene is already on him before he can sit up and straddles his waist kissing him passionately, swirling her tongue in his mouth. It was at this point that Missandei had come into the room, which sobered Jon up out of his lustful haze pulling away from the kiss.
"Please do not stop because I am here" Missandei says with a smile as she sits on her bed.
"Doesn't it bother you?" Jon asks confused at her reaction.
"Not at all, on Naath people are very free with their intimacies, people often do it out in the open in witness of the butterflies as they are the eyes of Harmony" Missandei says, while it was interesting to Jon as he had studied different cultures at the Citadel he could not bring himself to concentrate as Tyene was sucking on his neck and unbuttoning his trousers, though he wasn't fully erect as he was not used to being watched.
Missandei had slept in the small crew quarters on the Princess Lyanna she also woke up earlier than both Jon and Tyene so it came as a complete surprise when she started taking off her long flowing dress, none of them realising that a lot of her people slept naked or mostly naked.
Starting from the shoulder straps the dress slipped down her collarbone intruding two large breasts with dark brown nipples on the end of it, her skin looked smooth and was a beautiful brown colour, at this point she turned around making Jon silently curse until he was treated to two large thick cheeks that ripples as her dress was pulled over it, the room wasn't too large and the beds were not far apart so Jon was close enough he could see the lips of her sex as she bent over.
Jon's cock had hardened the instant she started undressing, something Tyene had noticed, when Jon looked around he noticed Tyene had a mischievous look on her face.
"Keep looking at her" she whispers as she gets down between Jon's knees.
Before Jon can reply his hard cock is taken into her mouth, feeling like a warm furnace, her tongue rubbed along the tip of his cock, stopping as she took him deeper into her mouth. All the while Jon was looking at Missandei who was using a bowl of water and a cloth to wipe away the accumulated sweat of the day, seeing the water drip down her back and into the crevice between her cheeks, her hands rubbing her large chest making her nipples slowly become erect.
Jon was slowly going over the edge, his balls felt like they were about to burst, it was at this point Tyene put his cock fully into her mouth.
"Gods!" Jon stifled out as she was sending him fully over the edge and he unloaded all of his seed down her throat.
Missandei had noticed what Jon was doing and it did make her feel som excitement, being able to turn on a man like that she had never experienced it before, being the daughter of her people's king kept the roguish type away and brought the prim and proper.
'Maybe they won't notice if I touch myself' Missandei thought.
Needless to say it was a restless night for the group as Jon and Tyene did notice Missandei pleasuring herself and it only made them more passionate with each other making Missandei more fierce with her pleasuring.
(Morning)
Tyene and Missandei had woken up to Jon having disappeared, when they went downstairs to check if he had gotten up early the Innkeeper said Jon had told him to let them know that he was at the ship.
Deciding that it would be better to get breakfast before meeting Jon, Tyene and Missandei sit down together and wait for their breakfast both nursing cups of watered down wine.
"You look tired Misa, did you not get enough sleep last night " Tyene says with a smirk on her face. This embarrasses Missandei causing her face to blush a pretty red.
"Don't be embarrassed Misa, he's attractive isn't he" Tyene says as she moves closes to Missandei her breasts pushing against her side.
"You could've joined us last night if you wanted, I felt how hard his cock was when he looked at you, all you'd need to do was bend over and he'd bury himself deep inside you" Tyene whispers in her ear making Missandei's blush intensify as well as make her legs rub together.
Though Tyenes teasing comes to an end as the barmaid comes with their food. Though it did give Missandei something to think on.
(Harbour)
Jon was currently bringing what he believed would be the key to his success out from storage on his ship when both girls came walking onto the ship.
"And why were you up so early" Tyene asks in a sing song tone as she saunters up to him.
"I had to send a letter to Lys" Jon simply states, Tyene more in understanding, she puts a hand on his cheek.
"After this you should visit them" she says in a calm voice.
"It's better if I don't" Jon says with a hint of sadness.
"Jon I'm sure it is fine, they're your family and they love you, well maybe not Viserys" Tyene says chuckling at the last bit.
"It felt awkward after that night so I thought it best to leave" Jon says with a sigh.
"That's only in your mind, Daenerys was just a little jealous it's as plain as day that the girl has had a crush on you for a while" Tyene says hugging him.
"Maybe I will visit them, I will give it some thought" Jon says drawing a smile out of Tyene.
"Now are you going to show us what Maester Jon has invented to help with the greatest theft in history" Tyene teases.
Jon steps out of the way and reveals a larger than normal bell, but the bell has been widened at the base making it look like a large hat,
Missandei and Tyene looked unimpressed.
Seeing their looks Jon laughs a bit, he knows how it must look so he begins to explain how it will work.
"The bell will sink to the bottom with me, and it will bring down a small portion of the air we breath allowing me to travel under the water and into the Iron Bank" Jon explains.
"Are you sure it will work" Tyene asks skeptically.
"Leave this to me, you two focus on your part in the plan" Jon replies.
"I'm going to leave now, the Iron Bank is close to the water but I do not want to risk not being able to find the underwater tunnel" Jon states seriously getting a nod from the two.
Jon then takes off his shirt his muscles twitching and rolling as he moves, Missandei takes sneaky glances at him while Tyene looks unabashed. Jon lifts the bell over the side of the boat, the weight of it almost pulls him in, he climbs over the side and enters into the water with the bell.
"I'll see you soon" Jon says before submerging himself into the water.
(Near Midday)
Tyene and Missandei were dressed in their disguises and had dumped two unconscious women into a large pile of hay, Missandei did not participate as she did not believe in harming others, normally she wouldn't even consider a plan like this but she had to be strong for her people even if it made her less favourable in the Lord of Harmonies eyes.
"Come Misa, grab the food we need to go" Tyene said as she grabbed one of the large trays the woman had carried before heading off to the iron bank.
Arriving at a heavily guarded side entrance to the Iron Bank, Tyene and Missandei were nervous, this was a place that provided funds to topple kingdoms, and they were about to set it on fire.
"Well looks like Old man Varn finally got himself some pretty girls to deliver" One of the guards says in Low Valyrian.
"I was tired at looking at those nasty Crones, finally I feel my cock coming to life" Another guard replies drawing a life from the others.
"Here is the Entry papers" Tyene simply says not amused by their chatter, taking the papers the guard doesn't seem to give it much of a look before handing it off to one of his fellow guards, he's instead much more focused on Missandei who because of the woman's smaller proportions was filling out her dress quite nicely.
Tyene huffing to herself decides to get this over with "Come now boys I'm sure you can do plenty of looking once your shift is over" Tyene says with a playful wink.
"But if we don't finish these deliveries fast we won't be able to finish our other chores" Tyene says with an over exaggerated pout, though the men seemingly realise what she's saying and immediately open the doors for them, not even bothering to search them.
Once they get inside Missandei walks next to Tyene and gets close.
"Do men lack women here?" She whispers to Tyene.
"No?" Tyene says wondering why Missandei would ask such a strange thing.
"But as soon as you alluded to anything intimate they seemed to forget almost everything else, they even neglected to search us, I thought maybe there were not enough women around" Missandei whispered, Tyene laughs quietly.
"Never underestimate a man when his balls are full" Tyene says to Missandei whom nods as if receiving sage advice.
When they arrived into a large kitchen area they noticed that a lot of servants were here, it would blow their cover but they couldn't afford to wait any longer, the bells would be striking any minute now and once Jon heard them he'd leave the spring and head toward the records room.
Tyene grabs the bottle with the wild fire and immediately pours it on anything flammable, this gets a rise out of the other servants as they start to complain, though as soon as one touches Tyene she elbows her in the face.
"Sorry but I'm in a rush" She says apologetically to the woman on the floor with a broken nose.
Grabbing a candle from one of the holders she looks to the servants.
"I advise you all run" She says with a smirk before tossing the candle onto the wild fire, the substance ignited almost reaching the ceiling, If Tyene had been any closer when she threw it then she may have not made it out unburnt. Both of them were running back through the corridor they came in heading outside. They could hear the panicked screams from behind them.
Running up to the guard Tyene approaches him and almost collapses into him.
"Gods someone is trying to kill us all please stop them, i was so scared" Tyene says in a hysterical voice, the leader of the guards stepped to attention immediately and ran right to where Tyene said the danger was. When he was gone Tyenes face morphs back to a smirk.
"Come let's go back to the ship" Tyene says to Missandei as they finally hear the bell strike for midday.
(Underground Spring)
Jon had made it through the underwater cavern though he was slightly upset he had to leave his invention there, it wasn't a huge loss as they were easy to make but the first drafts are always special in Jon's eyes.
Sitting in the chamber Jon started thinking about his family, he missed them, even if Viserys was a cunt he was still his uncle. Though most of all he missed his Grandmother, when he had managed to find out where they were he left the citadel and traveled there, he'd been mortified at how they were living, that was part of the reason he lived this lifestyle, being a Maester would never make you a rich man but the knowledge he gained from the citadel is invaluable when searching for lost treasures.
It makes Jon happy that he got his family off of the streets and they are now living in luxury.
'I really should see them soon' Jon thinks to himself but he is drawn out of his thoughts when he hears the faint ringing of the midday bell.
"Time to go" Jon says to himself as he sits up off the edge of the pool, heading towards the door, he slowly opens it checking to see if the guards were gone before slipping into the corridor.
Right now he was on the lowest floor, their records room is one floor higher than the vault so he would need to make it up two floors unnoticed, the inside of the back was a sight to behold Jon thought as he climbed the stairs onto the vault floor, he could see how the building transitioned from low quality materials to high quality when you went from the oldest vault to the newer ones.
The Iron bank did not want to forget their roots so they still have the original Iron Mine that was used when the first runaway slaves hid their valuables. He saw the floors and walls transition from rough stone floors to polished stone and from polished stone to marble, it was a true marvel.
But making it near to the staircase entrance to the upper floors he found something quite unbelievable. A vault door was open, these massive circular doors of stone and metal were practically impossible to get into without a key, and one of them was just open.
Reading the inscription on the vault outside this vault seemed to be specifically for debt repayment.
'How can I not go inside, I'd never forgive myself' Jon thought to himself as he went inside the vault room.
Truly Jon had never seen so much wealth in one place, though it was completely ordered, though what interested Jon was not the mountains of gold but the treasures and artefacts that people must've paid off their debts with.
'Maybe it's here' Jon thought to himself as he started looking around the massive room, he found a pair of Valyrian steel daggers that he swiped.
'I can't imagine the things Tyene would let me do to her if I gave her these' Jon thought with a chuckle. He also found a beautiful butterfly pendent that had a mixture of sapphire emeralds and rubies on a golden shaped butterfly, he took that as he knew Missandei would like it.
Finally he came to a small chest and opened it, excitement could not be used to describe how Jon was feeling, laying on a smooth velvet pillow were three scaled oval pieces of what looked to be polished stone. One was green the other was a cream white and the one in the centre was a deep red, so red it was almost black.
'These have to be hers!' Jon thinks to himself with excitement as he immediately grabs the eggs before putting them in his satchel.
Jon exits the vault and makes haste to get to the next floor, however he stops in his tracks as he nearly barrels over a girl a young looking girl.
"Sorry little lady, what're you doing here" Jon says as he grabs onto the girl to stop her from falling over.
"I'm Beth, I'm nine namedays old and I was looking for my father, it's his lunch time and my mother lets me come down everyday to see him as I bring him his favourite pastries that my mother makes him" the girl says sweetly.
"But I'm lost and I can't find my way out" Beth says with watery eyes.
Jon silently curses as he knows he can't leave the girl here, he can leave her on one of the higher floors and hope he has enough time to get out before she tells someone he was here.
"Come with me little lady I'll help you find your father" Jon says with a gentle smile as he takes her hand and leads her down the corridor.
Jon wondered how big the fire was that the girls had set as it had been quite a while and he had no sign that any guards were around. He continued looking for the records room until he came to a large heavy metal door.
'This must be it' Jon thought to himself as he approached the large door, taking out a small spherical bottle firm his bag he uncorks it and pours green granules into the place where the key is placed. Grabbing a torch from the wall Jon rips a tiny bit of cloth from himself and sets it slight, standing as far away from the door as he can while doing it.
Throwing it the rest of the way is greeted with a brilliant green flash as sparks ignite from the lock, this continues for around ten seconds before it finishes leaving the metal area around the lock red hot.
Jon had discovered this alchemical mixture himself, using a combination of black powder which is used by warlocks and charlatans to wow the small folk and a tiny bit of wildfire he was able to create a mixture that lasted longer than black power which when ignited is used up instantly and less volatile than wildfire. The result being a controlled burst of heat capable of melting steel.
Quickly walking up to the door before the metal could cool Jon pushes the door open bits of molten slag dripping onto the floor.
"Wow that was pretty" Beth says to which Jon smiles and takes her hand again leading her into the records room.
Jon had a time period, as it was when Bloodraven went to the Nights watch shortly before disappearing so it must've been sold around nearly sixty years ago. Jon is looking through the records from that time, lucky the iron bank was very orderly and meticulous about record keeping and he finally found it.
"Here we go the contract between them, seems as if the iron bank made a mistake and this was given in apologies, maybe they did know it's history" Jon says to himself as he reads it finally getting to the parties involved.
"Contract between Iron bank of Braavos and… this has to be some sort of jest" Jon says to himself, but he suddenly feels the wind shift around him tickling his back and he only had a half second to move before a dagger is implanted in the place where he was standing.
Turning around he sees Beth but she no longer is acting like the innocent girl he had just met but instead as a neutral expression on her face. Jon's eyes finally light up in realisation but before he can say anything she speaks.
"I see you have finally realised" The girl says with a small smile.
"What're you doing here" Jon says with narrowed eyes, he's already reaching for the sword on his back.
The girl takes something out of her pocket and flicks it towards Jon who deftly catches it, looking at the coin it seems to be a typical Braavosi one with the Iron Bank on one side and the House of Black and White on the other.
"Two sides of the same coin, that is why a girl is here" she says before drawing another dagger out from behind her.
Jon is inwardly panicking having to fight a faceless man was not in the plan, he immediately takes out another of his flash mixtures contained in the circular containers, they had worked well on Daario so he threw it towards the faceless man's feet.
Closing his eyes the mixture goes off creating a large flash though when Jon opens his eyes he realises that the faceless man is standing still not reacting. He decides to get out of there but as soon as he takes a step the faceless man's head spins in that direction and they charge towards him dagger drawn.
Quickly taking his sword out Jon parry's the initial swipe but I'd nearly skewered when a second knife comes out of their sleeve, fighting someone so small and fast with the skills of the best group of assassins in the world would not end well for Jon.
Using his size to his advantage Jon uses and aggressive overhead swing that forces the faceless man to dodge but where he dodges to is exactly where Jon wanted him to and using offhand arm he pulls down a bookshelf the records were being held on it landing straight on them.
Knowing that wouldn't hold him for long Jon ran out of records room. His initial escape plan was to knock out a guard or servant before walking right out but since he's been caught already that plan seemed less viable.
"Guess it's run and hope I don't get caught" Jon says before sprinting down the corridors. As Jon was running down the corridors of the Iron bank he started realising that the corridors were starting to get more and more crowded, he was lucky that he had only ran past bankers and servants and no guards yet but he knew it wouldn't last for long, a man running out of the bank with a satchel and no shirt would draw attention.
"HALT!!!" Jon hears someone scream, most likely a guard but he doesn't stop, he's close to the main entrance to the bank just one more corner and he will be able to see it.
Though he's grinds to a halt when he sees that most of the guards are in the atrium that composes the entrance to the bank, Jon had forgotten that the fire would've drawn most of the guards here.
Most of the guards were already looking in his direction when he came around the corner and for a few seconds they don't say anything, until the guard from before also comes running around the corner still screaming to hold.
"Shit" Jon days before he runs back the way he came pushing the guard out of the way.
'Plan C it is' Jon thinks as he looks for the staircase that takes him to higher levels, pushing bankers and servants out of the way as he does, he tries to ignore the score of soldiers running behind him but it's hard to with the clanking of their armour and their death threats.
Jon makes it up stairs and then heads towards the window, though an old man is in his way, not wishing to injure him he tries to avoid him but is nearly decapitated as the old man swipe at his head with a large dagger, Jon's quick reactions are the only thing that save him as he rolls underneath the swipe kicking out with his legs as he exits the roll.
"You thought you could escape a man but one can not escape from the one true god" the faceless man now in the guise of an elderly man says to Jon.
Jon grabs onto something in his satchel, the faceless man tenses waiting for whatever trickery Jon is going to summon up, however Jon just turned around and ran.
The window was already open as it was a hot day, Jon grabbed the item out of his satchel revealing a grapple hook that he dropped to the floor before jumping out of the window, the grapple hooking onto the inside of the window.
Jon swung down hitting himself against the side of the building though he couldn't help but smirk at the fact that he had managed to get away from the assassin. Though that feeling of accomplishment was short lived as when he started to walk away from the building he heard a crash close to him. The assassin had jumped straight out of the window landing on a fruit stall the top breaking his fall.
Jon slumping slightly just breathes out in exasperation before turning around and running. The guards at this point had seen what was going on outside and had begun filing out of the entrance.
"STOP!"
"HALT!'
'SCUM!'
Many different commands and obscenities were thrown at Jon who was running trying to get his way through the busy midday crowd, what worried him in a crowd this big was the faceless man that was still no doubt following him.
'At least things can't get worse' Jon thinks to himself, almost immediately after the bells start ringing to signify the guards there was an intruder.
(Ship)
Tyene and Missandei were currrntly sitting on the deck of the ship, they had dragged two chairs onto the deck and were enjoying the sun both drinking from a wine skin, though they were both snapped out of their relaxation when they heard the bells ring continuously.
Tyene immediately gets to it and starts getting the ship ready for departure.
"Misa, untie the ship from the dock we need to be ready to leave" Tyene says while she climbs the shrouds in order to let down the sails.
"Is everything okay" Missandei asks with concern as she follows the order she was given.
"Jon has probably done something stupid and we need to be ready to leave" Tyene says with a sigh, she had been Jon too long not to recognise the sign of him getting into trouble.
(Jon)
"Shit!" Jon says as he ducks beneath a dagger again pushing the faceless man into a group of people.
Looking around for an escape route he sees that there's too many people around to escape, but he sees an old pulley next to a building, running to it he cuts the rope holding the counter weight and he flies upward landing on the top of the building.
Looking down he sees the faceless man already scaling the building.
"This guy does not give up" Jon huffs out as he begins running building to building in the direction of the harbour.
Jon has made it to the harbour district but unfortunately for him the faceless man had caught up throwing one of his daggers at Jon, which he deftly deflects with his sword, they then engage in combat as Jon tries to run, each one twisting and turning as they have to adjust as the building they jump to get progressively less in quality.
The faceless man leans out of a side swipe aimed for his neck then thrusts his dagger aiming for Jon's gut though his wrist is caught by Jon who punches him in the nose, though the man doesn't flinch and uses his other dagger to stab at Jon's outstretched arm, he bends his elbow just in time almost getting nicked by the assassins blade.
Jon then pivots to the side pulling the wrist he had grabbed in his arm upwards and slashing their side with his sword, yet the assassin does not cry out in pain. Jon kicks the assassin in the side sending him off the building.
'Way too close for comfort' Jon thinks to himself as he scaled down the building heading for the docks, when he arrives to where his ship is he sees it is mostly ready to go so he jumps on, before Tyene says anything.
"It was not my fault, I don't want to talk about it" Jon says making Tyene smirk before nodding and heading to her station.
They get the ship away from port and head out, hopefully the guards in the Titan hadn't of got the message of someone trying to escape yet. They sailed under the Titan of Braavos with trepidation as they waited to see if they would get attacked but in the end it turned out that the message had no reached them yet and they had gotten away with it.
Sighing a big breathe of relief Jon lies down on the deck of his ship.
"Did you get what we needed" Tyene asks sitting down next to him.
Jon nods his head but Tyene can tell he's not happy about something.
"What's wrong Jon" Tyene asks putting her hand on him. Jon looks up at Missandei and sighs.
"Your father was wrong, it wasn't a minor northern house that came into possession of the cup" Jon states before taking out the contract.
"Contract between The Iron Bank of Braavos and Edwyle Stark for one Northern Artefact" Jon quotes the page.
"Stark so he was your…" Tyene asks
"My great grandfather, I don't know a lot about him, my uncle always avoided talking about his family, it was a painful subject" Jon replies.
"So our next trip is Winterfell" Tyene says with a wide smile.
"Fantastic…" Jon says with a small frown.
(AN: Ughhhhhhhhhhhhh 8,000 words for a chapter I don't really like but it had to be done, this was the bag way to get him to Winterfell, btw that mixture Jon uses to open the door is thermite or my half assed attempt at recreating it so if I'm wrong about any of it then no need to tell me I probably am but it's fantasy just be happy it kind of makes sense. Anyway imma focus on my other fic now maybe get a few chapters stocked up before I come back to this, so maybe Monday I'll start writing it. Anyway let me know what you think)
