KING'S LANDING

"Where is Daenerys?" Jon barely could breathe but he immediately jumped up from his bed, at the moment he noticed his love is missing. His heart was beating in his throat, and he stood on his feet quite uncertainly. Tormund quickly took a step towards him, to help him if he falls down. "Tormund." Jon swallowed.
"I don't know." the giant man shook his head.
"Mom is fine." Missandei was still clinging in Ghost's fur and answered to her father quietly.
"What? Missandei, do you know where your mother is?" Jon frowned and staring at his daughter. Missy nodded. Jon gently pushed Tormund away from himself and he knelt down to the tiny little girl. "Where is she?" Jon took her hand. 
"She'll be better," Missandei answered. "You don't have to worry about her." 
"Tell me where is your mother." Jon sighed and he loved his daughter with her whole heart, he did not want to yell with her, but he was worried for Dany. She did not say a word, just lowered her head. "Missandei" Jon couldn't stay as patient as he wanted, but at that moment Ghost poked him with his nose and started to whine again. The wolf jumped towards the door and back. 
"He knows." Missandei looked at Ghost. "But let her do what she has to do. Do not try to stop her dad." she raised her eyes at Jon, and he was clearly lost in the situation. He had no idea what is going on. He glanced at Tormund. 

"Jon!" Samwell arrived at his room and he surprised about the presence of Missandei and Tormund. 
"You should be in bed" Arya crouched next to Missandei immediately and placed her arms around her.
"What is going on?" Jon was staring at Sam, but Ghost was barking and he wanted to convince them to go. 
"Something is happening at Dragon's Pit." Sam pointed towards the window in the corridor, and Jon walked there and looked around. He could see how fire lit the whole place and Drogon was roaring continuously, meanwhile, the small dragons were doing circles in the air, above it. 
"We have to go there." Jon looked to the others. 
"What the hell..." Yara also woke up for the noises and arrived at them. "What is happening? Where is ... where is Nesera?" he looked at Tormund. 
"Nesera" Jon realized it was her who he saw last time before he fell into a deep sleep. She was there in their room, and she acted a bit weird. "She..." Jon glanced at Missandei then knelt down to her again. "Is she...." he did not want to say it loud but he knew... his daughter knows. 
"She has to. There is not another choice. If she won't... we are all lost. Everyone. Everything." Missandei answered and every eye in the room was looking at her. Jon narrowed his eyes, then swallowed and stood up. 
"What is going on with Nesera?" Yara stepped closer to Jon then her eyes stopped on the little girl: "Tell me." she was clearly nervous and worried. "Tell me!" she shouted and turned to Missandei. Jon placed his arm in front of her and pushed her away from his daughter. 
"We have to go there. Maybe we can do something." Jon made it clear for Yara, but she left them there and started to run towards the entrance of the castle. 
"If you let her stop it, mom is not going to survive." Missandei raised her eyes at his father.
"I'll take care of it," Arya answered and a moment later she was not there anymore. She stormed after Yara and Gendry followed her too. 
"I'll bring a horse. You are too weak for that walk." Tormund nodded towards Jon and left them there.

"Nesera is going to sacrifice herself. For Daenerys." Jon stated to Sam when they were alone. "I ... " Jon turned to Sam "I need your help." Sam immediately stepped closer to his friend. "No. You don't have to hold me." Jon smiled. "But keep her safe." he nodded towards Missandei. Sam nodded and stretched his arms towards the girl to raise her up to his arms.
"I am going with you," she told to her father.
"No, darling. You have to stay here with Sam."  
"What if you need me?" she asked back.
"I always need you." Jon took her tiny hand and gave a kiss to it. "But now I need you to stay here, with Sam." he smiled at her.
"We are not in danger." Missandei placed her tiny hand on her father's face and almost whispered those words. "We will only be in danger if mom won't wake up," she added and she was looking at Jon's eyes. "You know I can go if I want to." she smiled a bit. She was worse than her mother, not to mention she has powers. She was just a toddler but she has much more power than someone ever. Meanwhile, she was the light in the darkness, it was scary for Jon. He saw how the power took over the control in Bran, what if.... what if Missandei will fail. What if the power took over the control in her mind too. He opened his mouth to answer.
"I've got horses. They are ready." Tormund arrived back in a hurry. 
"Mom needs us," Missandei told them before Jon could form a word and he just nodded, and they were heading to the entrance together. Sansa saw them stormed out and she had no idea what happened. No one told her anything about what is going on. She also heard the huge roars of Drogon.
