Magic
When I was a child
I heard a great story
Of kingdoms and empires
And prophets of old
Of heroes and martyrs
Who died for their cause
And through every chapter
The story was told
Of redemption and love
Sometimes written in red
Headed right to the heart
Of every woman and man
And down through the ages
Again and again
It's the greatest story ever told
Straight from the pages
From beginning to end
It's the greatest story ever told
Wise men could never begin to explain
The measure of grace
This wondrous book holds
It's more than a fable
Or an old fairy tale
It's the greatest, greatest story ever told
Greatest Story Ever Told by: 4him
Hello, hope you are having a nice day.
Merlin was still wounded because of the rock fall. His father was next to him. Merlin was unconscious and was very weak. Balinor smiled and put his hand on Merlin's forehead.
"Merlin." Balinor whispered. Merlin opened his eyes and looked up at Balinor. "You must stand up. You will have to fight Mordred and Morgana here. I am teleporting them here as well as those you love and care about."
Merlin nodded and stood up. Merlin was in a lot of pain and wanted to collapse but knew that he couldn't. Then Morgana came. When she saw Merlin she tempted to kill him but Merlin dodged the ball of fire. Merlin did not know that Arthur and the others were there. Morgana managed to hit merlin and Merlin flew back and hit the rock wall. He hit his right side on the wall. He got up and killed Morgana. When he did Mordred hit Merlin with the sword. Merlin gasped and killed Mordred. Merlin collapsed in pain. Gaius, Balinor, and Hunith went to him. Gaius looked at Merlin's wounds. Hunith put Merlin's head on her lap. Balinor held Merlin's hand and smiled at Merlin who was panting. Then Arthur came over.
"You're a sorcerer. Arthur asked calmly.
"It's warlock. I was born with magic." Merlin panted. Gaius looked at Merlin and sighed.
"You, Merlin, are very lucky." Gaius explained. Merlin nodded and with Hunith's help got up. Hunith helped Merlin find a more comfortable place to sit.
"Now, that you all know about Merlin. I want to show you something." Balinor said. They all sat down and Balinor casted a spell that made all the crystal come together. They watched and saw who Merlin's father was and what happened. Merlin was leaning on his mother with his head on her shoulder. He was very weak and cold. They saw when Merlin was born and what happened. They saw the first time that Merlin used magic. It showed some of what happened when Merlin was a child. One night when Merlin was 5 Hunith was reading a story.
"Mother, what's the greatest story you ever heard?" Merlin asked.
"When I was a child a heard a story about people who fought for a cause. The man who told it gave me the book and taught me to read. He gave me his bible. It was about kingdoms and empires and prophets of old. It's was and is the greatest story ever told." Hunith explained.
"Does God love me even though I have magic?"
"Yes, he does. To him you are one of his children. You have to ask Jesus into your heart if you want to go to heaven. Soon you will understand."
"Why do I have magic?"
"Because God has something special planed for you in the future."
"That is true." Hunith sighed. She looked at Merlin who began to shiver. Merlin was cold. "How do you feel, Merlin?"
"I'm so cold." Merlin shivered. Balinor came over and made a fire near Merlin. Then he made a blanket using magic and covered Merlin up. Merlin stopped shivering and calmed down a bit. Gwen saw this and knew that Merlin was a good man.
"Feel better?" Balinor softly questioned. Merlin nodded and smiled slightly.
"If God loves me, then why am I a monster?" Merlin tearfully wondered.
"You are not a monster." Hunith sternly replied.
"But I heard a few people talking and they said that people with magic are monsters."
"Don't listen to them. God wants you to use magic for good. Remember yesterday, you used magic and healed an injured bird."
"I'll try."
"Good. Now go to sleep."
They watched as Merlin grew up. By the end of the day they got when Merlin turned 18. Hunith looked at Merlin and saw that he was asleep. She put her hand on Merlin's forehead to wake him up but found that Merlin had a fever.
"Gaius, he has a fever." Hunith panicked.

Ok, so anything in bold letters is from Merlin's past. Anything that isn't in bold letters is the present. Hope you liked this chapter.
