Merlin
How things have changed, how technology has changed, for the better… I'm still deciding. 200 years I've waited for him and many still to come, I'm sure. "When Albans need him the most Arthur will rise again", that's what Kilgarrah said, well I don't see him do you? I look down the street, the same street I've lived on for these 2000 years, so trust me when i say , I know it like the back of my hand( I think that's what the people say now anyway). For a moment just a single second there's silence, but it's soon disrupted by the loud honking of cars and motor bikes. I turned around to see a group of boys, who looked around about the same age as me (20) walk this way (or strut these days), how ignorant they looked.
Magic is known as a myth to everyone these days something little kids wish they had, after watching films like Cinderella and so on. How blind the world is.
The boys "walked" past when a middle heighted blonde one yelled out, "Oi lanky one".
They were talking to me.
"You should really stop talking about yourself in third person it's creepy", I yelled back pretty impressed with myself, it didn't last.
"What'd ya say lanky", boomed another boy, I gulped silently; this one looked rather like a beefy thug, quite rough and cut up. He walked towards me, when a hand pulled him back, "It's alright Percival, I got this one" said another boy with long wavy hair and a dark skinned boy. I gasped silently, Percival it couldn't be of course it isn't, although to be fair I didn't get much time to think about it.
"No, this one's mine" said the Blonde boy again walking towards me, the others started grinning, they obviously thought he could take me. Little did I know they were right? I couldn't use magic here how could I? I had kept it secret for 2000 years and many before me died because of it.
Suddenly all hell broke loose, the blonde boy lunged for me, I jumped to the side just as he was about to grab me, grinning turned around to see the boy on the floor, with one swift motion I he kicked my shin and I tumbled over flat on the ground. Before I knew it the blonde boy and the others were leaning over me kicking and spitting at me until I was black and blue all over, there was no getting out of this one.
Only then did I see it.
As the blonde boy leaned over, he had a necklace that hung in mid-air form his neck.
Only the when it caught the sun did I see it.
The mark on the necklace.
Only then did I see it that every one of the boys wore an identical necklace.
Only then did I see the Crest of Camelot planted into each and every one of these necklaces, as the blond boy leaned over to kick me one last time I grabbed it quick and fast, no hesitation.
Then it all went black.
