28 Chapter 27 ( go arrangements )

In the tent all the lords were now staring at John, anticipating what he would say, and when John opened his mouth, the first thing they heard from him was a long fit of laughter.

"I'm sorry, I never thought this would be our first meeting, so would any of you want to ask me any questions?" John said to the assembled lords with a relaxed expression.

Most of the lords were silent until Lord Bolton spoke in his cold voice as usual to John, "What is your plan to win against the Lannister's?"

"Well, I haven't decided yet, but that's not the problem now. All I want you to know is that we will win, but before that you know I'm leaving for Dorn tomorrow with Ned, and all you have to do is stay here to defend against the Lannister's. Ten thousand of my men will come to your aid. To defend against the Lannister's and of course anyone who would dare to disobey my orders. I would cut off his head. Well, any other questions?" John replied to Lord Bolton while looking at the rest of the assembled lords. Of course everyone else was still and quiet.

"What are we going to do with the Kingslayer Jaime Lannister?" Lord Bolton asked John. When Lord Karstark heard that, he stared at John hard to hear what his answer would be. Afterall, Lord Karstark wants Justice for the death of his son when Jaime Lannister attempted to escape.

"Well, right now, we can't kill him because if we do that we'll lose the only thing that guarantees that the queen won't kill Ned's daughter, Lady Sansa. But you all join me outside, I can show you something." Everybody went outside following John.

Outside, Jamie was now in his cage and he heard people coming at him and stared at them. He could see them all and of course John Black.

"If you are the new king of the north, what next, will I also become the new king of the South?" Jaime said in mockery of John.

John laughed and replied, "How are you my dear friend? How is life with you?"

John finished with a big smile on his face looking directly at Jamie.

"It's okay as long as I can kill some people from time to time as an exercise to pass the time." Replied Jamie.

Lord Karstark got angry at hearing this and wanted to jump on him and cut Jamie into pieces. Lord Karstark didn't calm down until he heard John telling the guards to get him out of the cage.

"So you want to set me free, okay, that's a smart move." Replied Jaime. John interrupts him and tells the guards to pin him to the ground. Then orders Lord Boltonto cut off Jaime's right hand.

"Wait wait what are you doing." Jaime screams in fear. Lord Bolton looked at John and tried to say something to John.

"Do you want me to hold your hand and help you? I told you to cut it off now or I'll cut off your head instead." John said in a deep and calm tone.

Lord Bolton only got cold. John threatened to cut off his head but said nothing. Lord Bolton raised his sword and cut off Jaime's hand, which fell to the ground in a quick and clean motion.

John lifted Jaime's hand off the ground and said to the assembled lords, "I think that hand was the hand that pushed Bran Stark off the Broken tower. Or maybe it was the left one, but it makes no difference." John threw the hand at Lord Bolton and ordered him to put it in a box and send it to Tywin with a simple message. Warning Tywin Lannister that any injury that the crown inflicts on Lady Sansa will be repaid a dozen times over on Jamie Lannister.

Lord Bolton knew this action was two messages from the New King of the North, John Black. First was forcing himself and House Bolton into following King Black and not being able to possibly join Tywin Lannister if things go south. Second was the direct message to Tywin Lannister, the lost of a hand will doom Jamie Lannister for a long time and this gesture will cause Tywin Lannister to lose his mind. This is an insult he cannot let stand against House Lannister. But will also force Tywin Lannister to protect Lady Sansa.

But before Lord Bolton left to do as his new King demanded, John told him to stop. John walked over to Lord Bolton and hugged him. John then came close to Lord Bolton's ear to whisper to him, "Don't worry, I'll stay by your side whenever you need me." John then patted Lord Bolton on his back.

Lord Bolton had a feeling he had never felt before. It was as if someone had penetrated his soul and saw everything about him. And just as quick as it came, it was then gone. Now everyone can see Jamie on the floor with his eyes empty of life.

"Lord Karstark, I know the price you paid with the lives of your two sons in our war and I am a person that as long as my followers are loyal to me, I will back them and bring them Justice even if I face the whole world. But I ask you to wait until this war is over and I will cut off his head for you. But, right now, we need him in order to protect Lady Sansa, Lord Ned Stark's daughter." John states this to Lord Karstark but also looks at the rest of the Lords. Every northern man is proud.

Lord Karstark never felt this feeling before, yes he respected Lord Stark, but he didn't feel that feeling of pride and respect. So with pride Lord Karstark kneeled on the ground and said to John, "As you command, my King!"

"Good," said John, before ordering his guards to chain Jaime's arms and legs and take him to the cage again. But this time four guards will be watching him.

At night

The camp was full of singing and laughing.

"Have you seen these soldiers?" A soldier from Riverland asked while looking at the soldiers on the other side of the camp. The soldiers were all standing and making no sound, as if they were not from this world.

"Yes, they are scary. I swear, none of them smiled or even made a loud sound." Then a man spoke from among the riverland soldiers. "I heard that they are the soldiers of King Black."

Inside the Northern Command Tent

Lord Umber said to John, "Where did you get your guards from?" Lord Umber looked at John's guards and of course the two giants who were outside the tent. "I swear they didn't move. It is as if they were statues watching everything that moved."

"Would you believe me if I told you that they showed up in my room and said they liked my character and wanted to serve me?" John said with a smile that made Lord Umber laugh.

John looked at a table near him. Sitting there was Rob Stark and Talisa Maegyr. John turned to Rob Stark and said, "Go to her and say hello. You already broke your oath to Lord Frey. It makes little difference how close you are to Lady Talisa now. Do you really think Old Frey will forgive you? I would advise you Rob to not go anywhere near the twins any time soon."

John then looks at Lord Ned Stark and says, "Ned, I'm going to change the plan. I want you to stay here. I can't trust your idiot son anymore. When Thorin gets here, tell him to start Operation Red, and he'll know what I mean."

"As you command my King." Ned said to him without any question in his voice and of course Rob was so angry at what John said. Rob could see everyone inside the tent looking at him and of course Karstark was smiling from hearing that Lord Rob Stark was not trusted by King John.

"As for you, there's a ship coming, I'd ride in it with your girlfriend, and go to Winterfell and help your brother Bran rule until I come back. Do You Understand!?! John stated to Rob, looking directly into his eyes.

Robb was angry at hearing this, but he couldn't say anything. He got up from his seat and went with Talisa to his tent.

The next morning John departed for Dorne, with three thousand of his men. John looked at the sun and smiled. "Here I come Dorne!"
