Chapter 485 - Looming Trouble III

(Third Person POV)

Saera was lying in Daella's bed, holding her in her arms, "My sweet sister." She said softly, "You need to be up and walking about. Your girl, Aella, she needs her mother..." 

Daella was in her arms, saying nothing. 

Saera ran her hand through her hair, "I wish Maegelle would be here. But she is so busy.....we all are...." She said softly, "My beautiful Sister, I know your heart is wounded." 

Daella dug her face further into her chest, her eyes completely red with tears, "I'm tired....." She said softly, "I want all of this to end....." 

Saera frowned, "Daella....." 

"I want Maegelle here...." Daella said softly, "I want my Sisters with me...please....." 

Saera nodded, "I will make sure they come, alright?" She said softly, "Worry not about a thing." 

There was a knock on the door, and Saera saw as it opened and Alyssa walked in. 

"How is she doing?" She said as she walked up to the bed

Saera sighed, "She's..." she said, "It's a bit rough." 

Daella didn't want to move from her position, she merely closed her eyes. She entered a depressive state, worse than what she went through when she lost her child. To her, the suffering never ended, and she wanted to be free of that. 

Alyssa reached for her waist, leaning in, "Daella..." She said, "You need to eat something. You need to be walking, getting some fresh air." 

"No...." she said softly

"Sister." She said, "I understand your pai-" 

"You do not understand my pain." she said softly, "You haven't lost a child. Your Husband still lives. You don't know this pain. You are favored by that beast, that monster....while this sister I am being embraced by is married to him. None of you know my pain, none of you can truly understand it. So do me a favor.....keep quiet....and hold me..." 

Saera hugged her tightly, "Yes." She whispered, "I am so sorry.....Daella, I am so sorry..." 

"His daughters are left without a Father now." Daella said softly, "A few years and they would have gotten married. Just....just a few more years....and he could have seen that....but..." 

"Shhh...." Saera said softly, "You don't have to say anything else." 

"I miss him terribly...." Daella said, "I want him here.....I want him here.....I don't care, I want him back...but I know he's not coming back. Why? Why must this happen to me?" 

"I don't know." Saera said softly, "I don't know, Sister..." 

***************************

Drakken walked down the streets of Fleabottom, seeing how there were several people on the ground, their entire bodies shriveled up as their eyes were burst open, bleeding profusely. It was a disturbing sight, seeing almost a dozen bodies laid around in the street. 

He didn't seem bothered by the sight, almost as if he expected it. 

He turned into an alley, hearing some muffled screams as he noticed a woman crawling on the floor, her eyes bleeding profusely. 

"H-Help....." She sobbed, "Is someone there? Help me please....." 

Drakken stopped before the woman and tilted his head, "Hm....." 

"W-Who goes there?" The woman looked up, her eyes were completely destroyed, "Please.....help me...." 

Drakken flicked his wrist and the woman's neck snapped, killing her instantly as her body slumped down to the ground. 

He then rolled his eyes, "This fucking guy....." 

As he walked into the small open area, he noticed that there were several men down on the ground, their bodies shriveled up and their eyes bleeding profusely. Before them, he saw the naked and female figure of what he assumed was Aemon Targaryen's corpse, possessed by Thanatos.

He only saw the backside, a bit surprised by the new form, "What the...." 

Thanatos was holding a man by the throat as a black smoke-like substance was being extracted from his mouth and entering his own mouth. As this happened, the man's body was shriveling up, his skin turning a dark grey and plenty wrinkles appearing. Towards the end of this process, the man's eyes burst open and blood splattered everywhere, splashing on Thanatos's face. 

Drakken cleared his throat, "Ahem." 

Thanatos dropped the man to the ground and turned around, showing Drakken his front-view, which Drakken was also taken aback. He knew that this was Aemon's body, but was perplexed by the sudden shift of gender. 

"Like what you see?" Thanatos voice was somewhat feminine, but it didn't have the deep distortion it had before, "Drakken." 

Drakken gestured his arms upwards, a bit confused, "The fuck is this?" he said with a serious scowl, "What did you do?" 

Thanatos flicked his long hair back and gestured at his naked female body, "A bit of psychological damage to House Targaryen." He said, "Well, for the others. I wanted to lighten the blow on Daella." 

"So you turned Aemon's body into that of a woman's?" Drakken asked with a raised eyebrow, "What's the benefit from that?" 

"He's dead, what does it matter?" Thanatos said, "And you won't bring him back, not in a million years." 

"I mean, that is true." Drakken crossed his arms, "I'm still confused, Thanatos. You're a male Dragon, why bother using a female human's body?" 

"Tch...." Thanatos scowled, "If I cannot have my original body in this world, I might as well try new things. Any other man's body will never be enough for me, it would constantly remind me that I am not in my own." 

"So you use a man's body and turn it into woman's." Drakken said

"I thought you'd be a fan of this." Thanatos twirled around, "I think it came out pretty well." 

"Why the fuck would I be a fan of this?" Drakken said with a scowl, "That's Aemon Targaryen's body, just gender-switched. You think I was going to get horny by watching you do that? Get your head out of your ass and put some damn clothes on." 

Thanatos looked at him, "The time is near, Drakken." He said, "Soon, we'll have to make a move. I intend to use this body and go North." 

"Why?" Drakken asked

"I feel it." Thanatos said, "A being of Death. I must show that being that they are weak compared to I, The Dragon of Death. There is no way we can coexist. I will destroy them....." 

"You're not going to the North, not yet." Drakken told him, "Get your shit straight. Put some damned clothes on and stay out of the Targaryens' sights." 

"Have you gone soft on me, Drakken?" Thanatos asked with a serious look, "This is not like you." 

"Shut up." Drakken said as he turned around, 

"Do as I say."
