Tourney at Lannisport

While returning back to Moat Cailin. Zack and his clipper force stayed some time at Winterfell. When he returned winterfell his mother very harshly berated him for doing something this idiotic. And warned him to be prepared for his punishment because she has already told Eddard Stark about his joining a war.

Well after this, he spent time with his siblings the one who most enjoyed his company was definitely Arya. Who will not leave his side. And whenever she left his side, she was found with females members of his clipper force. She was really adamant on leaving with him and to train like her elder 'sisters' from the clipper force.

But after some persuasion from Zack, who promised her that he will train her when she turns six name days. Well now she was only two name days only.

Well after their stay they returned to Moat Cailin. When he was at Winterfell Alvina told Zack about the burning of Lannister fleet on the Lannisport. So now he knew that full scale counterattack will start on the iron islands. Which will end in the conquering of Pyke.

After returning to Moat Cailin he was informed by his man who was assigned to take care of ravens and to be the messenger, about the letter of Eddard stark. In which there were instructions for the messenger to hurry up and send a message for Zack to return at once to Moat Cailin. But Zack had already predicted it and warned the messenger to not disturb him by sending messages to him beforehand.

And now Zack was waiting for the war to end. And he was keeping live watch over the situation of battle through the map function.

And he was also preparing to go to the Dothraki Sea to subdue the khalasars there. Of course he will not go there openly but he will directly transport there with his two thousand clippers. These two thousand clippers were not his only force, his undead were making sure of that by taking orphans from all over Westros.

And by doing so they are indirectly damaging the spy network of Varys. Because the main source of information for Varys were his 'little birds'. And now many of his 'little birds' are being trained as clippers in the training dimension of Tower Of Heroes.

....................

The rebellion of Greyjoys lasted whole two months. The reason for their defeat was their low numbers as well as their weak fighting prowess on land.

The final battle was on the island of Pyke, led by Robert and Eddard Stark. The nearby Botley castle was destroyed, as was the town of Lordsport beneath it, before the main attack on the castle of Pyke was launched.

Robert's forces assaulted the southern wall with siege weapons, shattering the main watchtower and bringing parts of the surrounding wall down. Maron Greyjoy, the second of Balon's three sons, was killed in the breach.

After this siege Balon Greyjoy surrendered, his two eldest sons Rodrik and Maron were killed, and his last surviving son, Theon, was made a ward of House Stark as hostage.

Happy with his victory the king Robert Baratheon threw a great tourney at Lannisport to celebrate his victory.

Zack also received a summon for the tourney at Lannisport. He clearly knew that his involvement in the defense of Bear Island will come to the attention of lord Tywin Lannister, and he was prepared to meet with that old loin but he didn't expect that the old loin would be so eager to meet him. Well for Zack there was nothing to lose, but it was a good opportunity for him to give some pressure to old loin.

As the tourney was only seven moons away. Zack had enough time to attend the tourney. So Zack asked Katakuri to assemble twenty of his best clippers for them to accompany him on this tourney. His clippers consisted of both male as well as female clippers so in this group of twenty clippers he had seven female clippers.

After assembling his clipper force he rode towards Lannisport without taking Katakuri with him. Because the defense of Moat Cailin was his responsibility and Zack had already assigned him to train new clippers.

So on their travels they were sometimes ambushed by bandit groups but they were easily dispatched by his clippers.

So after their five moons journey, they entered the borders of Lannisport. From there it only took them half an hour to arrive at the check post, which was manned by lannister guards.

When they reached near the gate of Lannisport they were halted by the guards. "Halt. Identify your self and your purpose of visit." When Zack heard them he understood that it was a ploy of Tywin Lannister to understand the young genius of north. Because the guards can easily recognize the banner of Stark house with them.

Mia who was acting as the leader of clippers went forward and stated. " Lord Zack Stark, the second son of Eddard Stark warden of the north and lord of Moat Cailin is here to attend the tourney hosted by king Robert Baratheon at the invitation of king himself." After saying this she rode forward and passed the invitation letter to the guard.

Who opened the letter and after reading it glanced at his right side and after a moment tore the invitation and spat in the direction of Zack. And sneered "Do you think we will allow some tit sucking kid with some whores and bastards to enter the Lannisport with a fake invitation letter? Do you take us for fools. Now hurry up and tell us who you really are? If not we will consider you as remnants of iron born idiots." The guard shouted angrily.

When the clippers heard the guard they became very angry and put their hands on their sword hilts and turned towards Zack as if awaiting his command to slaughter these ignorant scum.

When all of this was happening Zack was clearly enjoying the happenings. When the guard first glanced at his right side, he thought that no one saw his action. But he was wrong, everyone from Zack's side easily noticed this abnormality but didn't say anything. But Zack clearly knew that behind the wall, king-slayer with around a hundred guards was hiding. And Jaime Lannister was the one who gestured the guard to start acting.

Only seven guards were present in front of them, who were given orders to make things difficult for them. Zack was also impressed by the behavior of his clippers. Because they were taught that the only time they must unscathed their swords was to take a kill. So considering the position of their lord they didn't draw their swords, they just silently awaited his orders.

Zack smiled and said to the guards "Oh~ so you guys can't even see the banner of house Stark? Well that's OK as anyone can use a counterfeit banner. But do you know that what you did with the invitation letter of king, specially containing the personal seal of king is a crime? And what the punishment of contradicting the king's word is?"

When the guards heard Zack they couldn't help but tremble. Their faces turned pale and they didn't know what to say. When they were contemplating on what to do, they heard Zack saying "What you just did is treason and the punishment for treason is death." Zack smiled and said to them leisurely.

Now they understood that they have made a very huge blunder and their lives are stake. Now they can only hope for Ser Jaime to rescue them. They came out of their thoughts when they heard the little devil say "So now prepare your selves to meet your god." While saying this Zack turned towards Mia and ordered her "Mia dear! Kill them."

When Mia heard Zack she immediately drew her sword and when she was about to rush towards the guard. They heard a loud voice. "Stop!"

*POV Jaime Lannister*

After the war i was summoned by my father to his study. After getting permission to enter i came face to face with my father Tywin Lannister.

"Jaime have you heard the news about a little wolf on bear islands during the war?" My father asked me about the news which we received at the start of war.

"Father are you talking about the second son of Eddard Stark the genius of north, who helped in the defense of bear islands?" I asked father.

"Yes him. I have convinced Robert to call him to this tourney. And when he comes i want to probe him. So that we can understand him better." My father seriously told me.

"Father do you believe all those rumors about him? That he is gifted by gods? And have an invincible army under his command?" I asked my father incredulously. Who is gonna believe that a kid who is not even ten names days command an army who fought against an army with three times their number without any causality? Maybe he is intelligent but that's it.

"Do you think a kid who brought his poor family to rank three in riches is an idiot. And it is also possible that he prepared an army. Maybe it is just a propaganda that they won without causality but i may consider it a possibility. In my life i have learned to never underestimate anyone. When loins hunt a prey they always use full force." My father calmly told me. And from his tone i could feel that he really is very appreciative of that little wolf.

"Ok father i will do as you instructed when he arrives at Lannisport." I told my father and excused myself.

Today when i was supervising the repair work of Lannisport, one of the scouts came to told me that Starks has entered the territory of Lannisport. I gave him some instructions for the security guard and prepared fifty guards and rode towards the gate, and hid behind a wall so that i can watch the drama unfold.

After some time i watched twenty rider coming towards the gate. And then from the way they were riding, i noticed that they were extremely skilled. They were also dressed very strangely. They didn't have any armors on them. While their horses were also amazing. And in the front a youngster who looked like a fourteen names day was riding.

I watched the whole process. I was sure that they will be humiliated but what i didn't expect was the sharp mind of Zack Stark. He easily manipulated the whole conversation and made our guards traitors. And then he very easily ordered his soldier who was amazingly a beautiful lady to kill the guards.

At that point i thought that i have watched enough. As the lady was going to attack, i decided to stop the charade. So i shouted "Stop!" and rode out with my fifty guards.

*POV End*

'Couldn't wait any longer huh~' Zack thought when he heard the shout of Jaime Lannister. He then motioned for Mia to wait when she turned towards Zack after hearing the shout.

"What is happening here?" Jaime demanded. When the guards heard him they heaved a sigh of relief, and accounted the happenings and described Zack as if he was falsely accusing them of treason.

"Zack Stark right. Our guards were impolite. I will see to their punishment." Jaime then turned towards Zack and haughtily said to Zack.

"It is Lord Zack for you." Zack also told him while constantly smiling. "And what punishment will they be getting?"

"It is our house Lannister's affair, so i don't think you should get involved with this matter any further." Jaime said in an irritated voice when he heard Zack telling him to call him as lord.

Zack's smile widened and said to Jaime "'Our house' you say huh~ and from when a kings guard have any house of its own? Don't you vow to leave your family and lands behind when you join as king's guard?"

When Jaime heard that he was a little stumped. He didn't know how to answer, because Zack was right. All the kings guard vow to leave any lordship or lands when they join the king's guard.

When Zack saw Jaime a little stumped to his words he continued. "As you heard your guard dogs what they did to king's words. This is open treason and the punishment for treason is death so i was just going to punish them." Then he turned towards Mia and told her "Do it and be quick about it."

As soon as he said that Mia rushed towards the seven guards and before anyone could react three heads flew in the air and three headless corpses fell down on the ground. When people understood what happened one more head was separated from another body.

Jaime became angrier and unsheathed his sword as all the other guards also drew their swords. "I wouldn't do this if i were you." When they were preparing to attack, Jaime heard Zack saying. When Jaime heard it he clenched his teeth very hard to suppress his anger. And watched how Mia was fighting with the other three guards and couldn't help but be startled at the prowess shown by her.

And after a few exchanges the other three guards also died. When this was over Mia slashed her sword in the air which removed the blood from her sword and sheathed her sword and jumped on her horse and came to the right side of Zack.

"Well they deserved it. It was their own fault." Jaime sounded like everything was OK but Zack could feel an amazing amount of hatred from his eyes.

"Ok as the dogs are already dealt with, lets go inside because we are tired from our travels. And we also have to see the tourney. Ser Jaime lead the way." Zack motioned Jaime to lead the way. While Jaime was fuming with anger when he called the Lannister guards as dogs. It seemed as if he was calling the Lannisters as dogs.

After showing them to the living quarters of Starks Jaime went towards his father's quarters to report today's happenings.

After meeting with his father and hearing a handful of reprimands from his i was allowed to take the rest because from tomorrow on wards the tourney will start.
