Anyway, enjoy~
Uther was sitting on his throne talking to the council about the magic activity in the kingdom, as usual. Arthur was sitting next to him and Merlin next to him. Then the grand doors on the other side of the grand hall flew open. A woman dressed in a navy blue cloak with blood red trimmings and spirals came through the doors. The hood on the cloak hid her face but a bit of white hair could be seen. As Uther stood up, the woman stopped in the middle of the hall. Arthur looked between his father and the woman while Merlin stared at her, he felt the strong magic coming from her.
" What business do you have here, sorcerer?" Uther growled at the woman, pulling out his sword. Arthur did the same. The woman just chuckled. " Is that how you treat all of your guests?" the woman said with her thick spanish accent. Then she lifted her hand to her hood. Everyone tensed when grabbed her hood. " Because, after all these years, I'm offended." the woman laughed, throwing her hood back. Uther relaxed, his look softening as he saw who it was. Arthur stared as wide eyed as Merlin was.
The young lady was about two inches shorter than Merlin, she had long, snow white hair, -except one raven black streak on the right side of the her bangs- her bangs part above the right eye and almost cover the left one. Her hair stop to about mid shin.
She ran across the hall and hugged Uther. Everyone stayed silent. Arthur almost see the tiny smile that came across Uther's face. " Maley, what are you doing here unannounced?" looked at her seriously as she pulled away. Maley grinned embarrassedly, " Well, I wanted it to be a surprise and…" she trailed off as she looked to the side, staring straight at Merlin. " Oh my god, Merlin, is that you?" she ran to him and hugged him tightly, " It"s been so long, I can't even believe I still remembered you. Boy, you look different." She pulled away from the hug to look at him.
" How do you two know each other, exactly?" Arthur made his presence known when he spoke. Maley turned around, " Oh! Hello there Arthur. I knew the ghost in here was you." her attitude towards Arthur was almost the same as Merlin's. " Yeah, It's nice to see you too," Arthur said in a friendly sarcastic way, " now, answer the question." Maley smirked, " I'm his wife," she said simply. Everyone in the room gasped. " No, she is not. She's just my cousin on my father's side." Merlin spoke up, glaring half-heartedly at Maley. " Just a cousin? Oh, your words wound me, Merly." she put her hand over her heart in false hurt. " You are too dramatic." Merlin and Arthur say in union. They all laughed together.
