We need a nice tankard of mead he said, it will calm us down he said, nothing will happen to us he said, well why was I currently surrounded by thugs and bandits about to be killed? I glared at Arthur who raised an eyebrow as if to say 'it's all your fault' I pulled away from the giant before me and gulped.

"It seems like you two have got yourself into a bit of a pickle?" Came two voices from behind the leader, he stepped sideways and looked into two pairs of brown eyes.

"You don't have to get involved," begged Arthur.

"Oh we don't do we?" Laughed the girl with a determined look on her tanned face.

"What do you think sister?" Smirked the man.

"Oh I'm going to need a drink with all this thinking! Hey you!" She laughed pointing at me, "can I have some of this places finest ale?"

I fumbled around until I found two tankards of ale and slid it across the table to the brother and sister, they had long brown hair hanging down to their shoulders and a cheeky smile etched on their faces.

"Please don't get involved you'll be killed!" Cried Arthur shocking me with his manners.

"Well what do we do?" Mused the man as they both took a gulp of ale and then without warning, the ma punched the huge one in the face and the woman kneed another and kicked him to the floor

"Nice one brother," laughed the sister knocking her tankard against her brothers before a massive fight begun, they shrugged at me and Arthur before running to join in. Arthur stared after them with an impressed look on his face before he ran at the leader and was pushed against the wall and kicked in the stomach.

I looked round at the woman who helped us and laughed as she jumped on the giants back until he was tired out before pushing a couple of pressure points till he fell to the floor.

I ran under the bar and threw some plates at the man trying to get me and with a little help from Mary the innkeeper we got him on the floor unconscious with a nasty blow to the head, I nodded my thanks before she took off into the midst of the battle.

"Hey mate pass me that jug?" Came the voice of the man who had helped us, I passed it to him and he took a gulp before punching someone hard in the face he then held out his hand as said, "what's your name?"

"Merlin."

"The names Gwaine and this," he said as his sister popped up next to him, "is my sister Gwen."

"Hi now if you don't mind," she smiled before grabbing the jug from Gwaine and smashing it against a short eye patched man's face.

"Such a waste isn't it sis?" He said causing them to laugh.

"Hopefully we'll see you around Merlin," yelled the girl as she pulled Gwaine away into the fight. I looked at Arthur who still seemed impressed as he was thrown backwards onto a table with a sword dangling above him, I muttered a few words until he screamed as the sword burnt his fingers. Then with a swift kick he was on the floor.

Cheers erupted through the crowd as Arthur walked away, I looked around only to see the leader stand up and charge at Arthur with a knife, I yelled out and went to fling the leader against a wall but a scream distracted me.

I spun round and saw Gwen cry out as Gwaine fell unconscious to the floor with a knife in his leg, Arthur towards him and knelt down beside him, I went to go over to them but I was distracted as Gwen's eyes went gold and time was slowed down, I looked round to see Gwen running towards me making me cry out and cower in terror, I closed my eyes and prepared for impact but it never came.

I opened my eyes just as Gwen collapsed in my arms with blood soaking through the side of her shirt and onto me, she tried to pull herself up but with a shudder she passed out in my arms.

Arthur ran towards me and picked her pale, fragile body out of my arms, "we need to get them to Camelot while they're still alive would you mind helping us get them on horses?" He asked as men carried Gwaine's body out and put him on a horse, Arthur walked out and put her on his horse in front of his saddle so he could get on.

"If these men cause you any pain or trouble come to Camelot! You will be helped," Arthur promised after putting the two gang leaders in the stocks and climbing onto the saddle whilst I done the same.

"How can you promise something like that?" Asked Mary picking up a piece of rotten fruit.

"Because I'm the king's son Arthur."

"Arthur Pendragon in my pub! Come on boys!" She yelled pelting the men with fruit as me and Arthur galloped back to Camelot with Gwaine and Gwen.

"Gaius!"

"Merlin what's wrong?" Gaius asked stepping from behind his desk.

"In about two minutes Arthur and some of his knights are going to come up her carrying a man and woman named Gwaine and Gwen, they've been stabbed and you have to save them," I whispered just as Arthur came in carrying Gwen with Gwaine being carried behind him.

"Gaius please help them they saved my life," begged Arthur as the brother and sister were put into mine and Gaius' bed.

"The wound is bad but I can save them," he said looking at their stab wounds carefully.

"Thank you Gaius I could never repay you if you saved them," thanked Arthur letting out a sigh of relief.

"Why do you want to save them so badly?" I asked sitting down next to him.

"You wouldn't believe me Merlin."

"Try me prat," I smirked receiving a punch on the arm from the smiling prince.

"When I first saw her I felt like I'd known her all my life, like we had a special bond even though we had never met before," he explained staring at his hands, " I know it's weird but she's special I think."

"No I believe you Arthur."

"No you don't..." he started.

"Believe me! I've seen a fair few weird things since I've come to Camelot," I said to a barking laugh.

"Yeah I guess you have what with the gargoyles, the Afanc, the Questing Beast and the rest of the monsters this seems almost normal," he yawned.

"You look tired my lord why don't you go sleep and I'll call you when they awake?"

"Ok see you later Merlin," he said patting me on the shoulder before running out the room, I sighed and turned round to watch Gwen only to see her eyes flash gold and the window smash.

"GAIUS!" I yelled grabbing her hand.

"What!" He yelled back only to gap at the shattered window, "Merlin what did you do?"

"It wasn't me it was Gwen," I whispered pointing at the sweating girl in front of me.

"She has magic?"

"Apparently so," I answered back staring in shock.

"Emrys..."

"What?"

"Emrys..."

"Gaius she talking to me in my head and she knows I'm Emrys," I gasped.

"So she's a druid then, Merlin be careful," Gaius said before I interrupted.

"Arthur said he felt a bond with her and now she knows who I am I feel like there's a piece of string tying us together," I muttered without taking a breath.

"Then she might be more than just a typical girl in a pub you have to watch her Merlin." Gaius cautioned.

"So just like any other day?"
