Chapter 6
Jon walked in his soldier costume through the streets of King's Landing, he had to admit how beautiful the city was, the port had a horrible stench, a mix of dead fish and sewage, but the streets of King's Landing were different.
Jon could do nothing but admire the view of the great church of the seven gods that the people of the south worshipped, the so-called Great Sept of Baelor. It had seven glass towers and marble walls. In front of the building was a large marble plaza with a statue of Baelor the Blessed and some gardens at the side.
And finally, he reached his goal, the Red Keep. The home of the King of the Seven Kingdoms, and the dungeons.
It was an impressive fortress built of light red stone. The enormous wall rose directly above the cliffs at the mouth of the Blackwater River, with seven enormous towers inside, crowned by iron bastions.
Jon didn't hesitate for a second to walk down one of the streets and find an empty place where he could start.
" Crow" he muttered, touching the ground he felt a tickling sensation all over his body and a small bird appeared before him. The boy caressed its head and the bird happily let itself be petted.
" Okay, let's get started... Now explore for me" the boy indicated.
He didn't know if the bird understood him, but it took flight.
Jon watched it leave and remembered its figure well, its plumage, its beak, and its legs, until a perfect image of the raven remained in his mind. The boy closed his eyes.
"Vision" the boy murmured, opening his eyes. He was no longer on the street, but in the air, flying meters away from him, approaching the red fortress. The boy saw the crow and focused on the points, remembering every detail he saw with the crow. He reached the lower parts of the fortress and could see some bars on the stones.
"The dungeons," he murmured.
The raven looked through the bars and could see a man with a long face, dark hair, and grey eyes who looked at the ground, from his position sitting against a wall, his beard was dirty, the greyish tones mixed with the dust.
" Father" he murmured excitedly and the connection was suddenly cut off.
Jon sighed at the time he had to see what the raven saw.
He sat and waited for it to return. It took about half an hour for the bird to return. Jon rewarded it with some cheese, which it ate with pleasure.
" Okay, you've seen the bottom of the fortress, now I want you to see the top," he said while pointing up and down.
" Look specifically at the windows," he said while making movements with his hands, the crow turned its head in confusion and then took flight.
Jon waited a couple of minutes and then used his magic again, he saw what the raven saw again, and he saw that it was approaching the towers, he saw kitchens, the raven continued, rooms, he could see Joffrey sleeping with a prostitute and finally he reached the room he wanted to see, she was there.
With her curious blue eyes and thick reddish brown hair, the boy looked at her, her eyes were sad, and she had tear marks on her cheeks. The girl turned to see the crow and it looked at her with its red eyes, she smiled.
" Go, go back to your family, you who are free" the girl murmured.
Jon felt the vision fade and the raven flew away a few minutes later.
" Good job, now it's my turn, you stay here, if you see that I need help come" the boy murmured.
[T/N: the F*ck the birds suppose to do?]
The boy approached and entered the red fortress, he walked confidently, as if he knew the place, and with the limited knowledge he obtained from the raven, the dens turned to see him when he passed and then returned to their own.
He walked for a good half hour until he reached the kitchens.
"Yes?" asked a maid.
"I've come for Lord Stark's food," he said.
The maid looked at him curiously.
"Two meals... The king ordered to only feed him at night" she indicated.
"It seems he changed his mind," Jon said more annoyed.
She looked thoughtful and shrugged.
" He's been changing his mind ever since he sat on the Iron Throne, wait a minute" she clarified.
Jon waited about fifteen minutes for the maid to bring him a metal tray with a piece of meat and bread, also a glass of water.
'Just this, no wine,' he thought but said nothing as he took the tray and moved towards the lower part of the fortress.
He turned a corner and came across a man somewhat younger than his father with blond hair and impeccable armor, he recognized him immediately.
'The Kingslayer,' he thought.
He continued on his way, but then Jaime stopped him.
"Where do you think you're going with that?" he asked.
Good atmosphere
"The dungeon, sir" he indicated.
Jaime raised an eyebrow.
"The king declared that Stark will only eat dinner, until his execution" Jaime clarified.
Jon knew that deceiving him like the servant would not be so easy, he had to say something credible, the Kingslayer was present with the king, he knew all his orders.
"It's not for Stark sir, the jailer asked me for it" he indicated.
Jaime raised an eyebrow.
"They have you as a messenger... Oh, I see, you're young, did you come in with the new recruits? " he asked.
Jon nodded.
" Very well... Keep going" Jaime finished, turning around.
Jon sighed as he watched him go and hurried to the dungeon door. He knocked hard on the door.
"Password" a growl was heard from inside.
Jon hoped Sam's information was accurate and Tywin hadn't changed the old password.
"Golden lion," Jon told her.
A moment of silence passed, then a pair of locks opened, and then the door. Jon could see the jailer, a large, fat man, bald with a dirty beard.
"What's this?" said the guard, letting him pass.
"By the king's orders, Lord Stark will be offered a meal in addition to dinner" he indicated.
" What!? Why!? "said the guard angrily.
" I don't know, I don't question Ser Jaime," Jon said.
The guard turned pale.
"No…Of course, me neither" he said.
The guard tried to grab the bread.
"I wouldn't do that," Jon said.
The guard looked at him with a raised eyebrow.
" The king said the food is for Lord Stark" Jon clarified.
" The king doesn't have to find out" the guard threatened.
" Sure, sure, as long as it's not poisoned," the bastard said simply.
" What?" the guard muttered.
" Well the king is upset with the traitor, if he doesn't want to wait until the execution, it would be a good way to offer him a meal... you know" Jon indicated.
The guard looked at the food with some fear. He nodded and opened the dungeon doors, tossing the keys to Jon.
"Feed him, boy, stay until he's done, what goes in comes out" the guard informed.
"Yes sir," Jon finished, turning around.
He walked through the dungeons, there was everything, men, rotting bodies, women, skeletons, he reached his father.
"Your meal, Lord Stark," he said.
" I don't want it, go Lannister" the man murmured.
" Your food, Lord Stark" Jon insisted.
"Go," Ned muzzled.
Jon gets frustrated.
"Your food, Lord Stark!" the boy exclaimed.
"I told you to get out!" he exclaimed angrily and turned to look at him.
"Jon? Impossible. What are you doing here? Did you dye your hair?" he asked incredulously.
' You really did dye your hair, that's your reaction ' the bastard thought with a smile.
" Yes Lord Stark, two meals for today," he said loud and clear and then whispered "What do you think I'm doing here, father? I've come for you and Sansa," he said annoyed.
Ned raised an eyebrow at Jon's ability.
'How did he infiltrate?' he thought to himself, then noticed that he only named one of his daughters.
Jon put the tray under the grate and Ned took it and began to eat, while talking to Jon in whispers.
" Arya?" he asked.
" No one has seen her since you were arrested, I don't think she's still in King's Landing, knowing her she could already be in the North Sea."
Ned smiled. No one would stop that she-wolf, least of all a pair of Lannister kittens.
" In that case, it's clear what you must do, take Sansa and get out of here" Ned ordered.
" I came for both of you, I'll leave with both of you," Jon said.
Ned shook his head.
"I'm already doomed, we can't get through an entire army, just the two of us" he clarified.
"I have acquired magic, father... That's why I went to Essos to train it out of sight of the seven kingdoms, I am able to summon animals, and my swordsmanship has also improved" Jon implored.
Ned looked at him in surprise. And smiled.
" amazing, can you summon something that will destroy the red fortress and get us out of here? " he asked, knowing the answer.
Jon's silence said it all.
"Can you use a swordsmanship capable of defeating ten thousand soldiers?" he asked again.
" If we make a proper plan, we can…" Jon muttered.
Ned smiled.
" I already told you the correct plan, take Sansa and get out of here" he indicated.
" Father… " muttered Jon.
Ned smiled.
" Since I pleaded guilty, I'm condemned, and I'm satisfied with that. The only thing that terrifies me is that something happens to you lot... Jon, please. Save Sansa" he begged.
Jon wanted to cry.
" I will" he murmured.
Ned handed the tray back to him.
" You've always wanted to know about your other side of the family, I'm sorry I can't tell you, but I'll tell you one thing Jon, I loved your mother as much as I love you, wait for my execution, the Lannister armies will be there, there will be fewer guards at the ports... Save Sansa Jon. Now go, the guard will come back here if he notices anything strange" Ned finished.
XXXXXXXXX
Jon cursed from the small room he was resting in, the plans were made, but the skills he had were insufficient, he had killed several guards, gained experience points, but not enough to level up, he needed better summons if he wanted to save Sansa.
There was a chance, but it was risky. Killing a captain, Jon knew that the more skilled he was, the more points he would get, but most of them were in the Red Keep, his father would be executed the next day.
He headed to the bar where he was spreading unpleasant rumors, one of the skills he learned from Pym, his collaborators, the owner of the tavern, James Alan confirmed the rumors he was saying, everything was developing so that during the execution a revolt would break out that would leave the Lannister army there.
Of course that wasn't the whole plan, he would hide in Sansa's room, during the execution, the Lannisters would be busy, but they would leave Sansa in her chamber since they had to protect her as a political prisoner against the North. The problem was that to escape he needed to go around the back of the fortress, which meant breaking through a wall, he needed a stronger summon.
The boy planted rumors about the Tyrells, taking advantage of the lack of food, saying that it was Joffrey's fault for alienating the Tyrells, which led several men to agree.
"We should start a riot," James exclaimed.
Some shouts of joy were heard.
"But why would the king listen to us from his fortress?" some said.
"Well then let's make a mess of the execution, the king will be there," said Jon.
Others shouted in agreement.
Jon smiled with satisfaction, what happened in one tavern happened in another in a couple of hours.
" It's time" the boy murmured.
XXXXXXXXX
Bran was accompanied by Rikkon in his chair next to the maester outside Winterfell.
The maester was with them when they heard some noises outside, Rikkon went to see and cried out for help, the maester went to see and Bran could see some savages from beyond the wall come out of their hiding place holding Rikkon hostage.
The boy looked at the savages.
"Let him go" he whispered.
The savages laughed, one was a woman, the other two men.
Bran looked at the wildlings in annoyance and raised his hand.
"Air Blast" the boy muttered.
A force of wind came out of his hand and hit the wild man who had Rikkon trapped, sending him flying backwards. Rikkon fell and looked at Bran in astonishment.
"Witch" the woman murmured.
"Poison Needle" Bran muttered, a needle of green water shot out from one finger and embedded itself directly into the other man's jugular.
The man who had fallen due to Bran's air attack got up and ran away, the woman tried to, but an Air Blast from Bran left her lying on the ground.
" Maester, bring the guards" Bran finished.
XXXXXXXXXXXX
Jon moved silently through the Red Keep, he went into the tower where he saw Sansa with his raven, and hid in the wardrobe, he summoned the raven and used vision, and saw the execution of his father, he cried at that, as Joffrey impaled his head, Jon barely contained his hatred, only the thoughts of saving Sansa contained him, he lost the connection with his raven and could hear thousands of screams.
" The rebellion has arrived. Let's see what you think of your people... Joffrey " the boy muttered with hatred, it took about twenty minutes but the door was heard opening and closing and the cries of a woman.
Jon opened the closet door a little, he saw Sansa lying on the floor, there was no one in the room.
He left silently and went to her, in a quick movement he threw himself on her and covered her mouth, the girl screamed for a few seconds and fought, then resigned herself and waited, Jon turned his face still covering her mouth with his hand so she could see him.
Sansa recognized him immediately, and her eyes widened in surprise, Jon put a finger to her lips and she nods. Jon lets go of her.
Sansa throws herself at him, crying.
"There will be time to mourn for Father, first we must go" He whispered to her.
She looked at him hopefully and nodded, Jon handed her a small knife.
"I don't know how to use this" she muttered.
" Hopefully you won't need it. I'm going to take out the guards, stay here, I'll knock on the door when I'm done" he muttered and stood up.
Sansa took his hand. Jon took her by the shoulders and looked into her eyes.
"I'm going to get you out of here" he promised.
The girl nodded and let go.
Jon headed outside and closed the door, he saw that there were two guards in it who drew their swords, Jon immediately killed the first one, the second one attacked quickly, Jon evaded him and eliminated him without problems, then slammed the door.
Sansa came out of the door a few seconds later, Jon told her to get behind him, and they both ran out. Fortunately, most of the guards were protecting the king or fighting off the civilians who were rebelling.
It wasn't long before they reached their goal, the dungeons. Jon knocked on the door and nothing was heard until it opened.
Jon saw that it was not the fat guard, he recognized without a doubt his father's executioner, and he recognized Sansa. Jon was faster, a punch to the face knocked him to the ground, Jon entered after him.
Sansa walked in and closed the door.
"Do you know who I am?" he asked.
The executioner looked at him without fear.
"I am the son of Eddard Stark" He whispers.
The executor man turned pale.
"Jon?" he heard and saw Sansa and looked where she was pointing on the table, there was a large Valyrian steel sword, Ice.
"Where's your sword?" Jon asked.
"Tywin Lannister claimed her," said the executor.
Jon swung a saber at the latter's head. His eyes felt a bright light and a second later he appeared in the white room, he sat on the floor for a while trying to calm down.
"Sansa" he murmured, remembering that he had no time to waste, even though time does not pass in the room, and he walked over to the monitor and touched the player menu. His status and abilities appeared on the screen.

The boy nodded and hit the exit button.
" I finally have a capable animal" he murmured.
The dungeon doors opened and the dungeon guard entered.
"Payne, until when are you going to admire that stupid sword... Hey you, what happened? " The liar saw the executioner on the ground with his head split open and then looked to his side at Sansa.
"Stark girl, come here!" he exclaimed and grabbed Sansa by the hand.
Jon headed towards him, but the guard put Sansa in between, the girl quickly took the knife her brother gave her from her waist and stuck it into the guard's neck.
He let go of her, grabbed his neck, and fell to the ground. Sansa saw a bright light that blinded her, and then she opened her eyes to see that she was somewhere else. She was in a room with white walls. No windows, no doors.
"Jon?" she asked.
She looked from one side to the other, the cold and ugly dungeon had disappeared, the room was clean, without windows or doors, with tables with strange objects on them, at the end, there was a white table with a square object that shone.
Sansa felt self-conscious, she didn't understand where she was and she approached the object at the end, she saw some letters appear in bright colors on it.
Agree to enter the game?
"Game? I don't want to play, I want to see Jon" she murmured.
She turned from side to side, but there was no one else. She sighed and looked at the screen. She noticed the lights on it and tapped YES with a finger. It quickly changed color and Sansa walked away, but as soon as it happened, she came back closer and saw that some new phrases appeared on it.

" It's a magical room that gives magic," she said excitedly and looked at her choices.
There were a couple that interested her, white magic, music, stealth, support. She quickly began to research them.

The girl looked excitedly and saw that it said, 'Exit.' She pressed the button, and the room brightened. She closed her eyes. When she opened them, she saw the man's corpse and Jon approaching. She hugged him.
" Jon, I was in a magic room, and I got magic, I know it's hard to believe, but it was so real," she said.
Jon looked at her in surprise.
" The white room? " he asked.
She was surprised and nodded.
" You too? " she asked.
The boy nodded.
"I'll tell you later, now let's go" he indicated.
The boy took her hand and grabbed his father's sword, and then headed deeper into the dungeons, they reached a place where there were no people. Jon knocked on the walls from time to time and kept walking.
Sansa looked at him in confusion, until Jon picked a suitable wall.
"Finally" the boy murmured.
He touched the ground with his hands and summoned the animal he wanted.
"Boar," he muttered.
Sansa watched as a large animal appeared out of nowhere, Jon petted its head.
"There you go, the target is that wall. Finish it off" The boar let out a snort and ran off at full speed, hitting the wall with his head. It collapsed in seconds. He returned satisfied.
"Very well, now as soon as people come, attack them without mercy" the boy murmured. The boar seemed to understand him because he stood on guard.
Jon took her hand, and walked out with Sansa to what looked like the outskirts of the Red Keep. The boy searched for something and found it.
"Come on Sansa," he said, going through a hole covered by dozens of branches. When she entered she felt nauseous, they were in a tunnel, full of waste. Jon took her hand and they walked without stopping through the tunnel, 40 minutes, maybe even an hour, until they reached the exit, the boy moved the branches that were in it and Sansa smelled a stench of stale fish, which was much better than the smell of the sewer, her dress was torn in several places and her skin stained with dirt.
"It's the port" she murmured.
Jon pulled her by the hand towards a boat.
"Everything ready?" asked a man.
"All set, let's set sail immediately," said Jon entering the ship with Sansa.
"North?" he asked.
"No, to the green ones," Jon finished.
[T/N: That was, eh...could have used all his points and just summoned a dragon, but that would make for a worse story, also does he mean green ones as in the green mercenaries or the wilds, though aren't the wilds also to the north.
