HIYA! THIS IS MY FIRST MERLIN FANFIC, IT'S A GWAINE/OC STORY BECAUSE I LOOOOOOVE GWAINE

HOPE YOU ENJOY IT, I'VE BEEN WRITING IT FOR AGES….

I DON'T OWN MERLIN, EVEN HOW MUCH I'D LIKE TO.

GWAINE'S POV

"Let me in!" came a woman's voice from outside the courtroom doors, all the knights and courtiers had been gathered in the great hall for a feast.

"Oi! I need to speak to the king!" she yelled.

The doors were yanked open and a whirlwind of beauty swept through the courtroom. Her eyes gleamed a bright green, hair dark and wavy down to her waist and tall with soft features. Her blue dress trailed behind her, muddy and torn a sword at her waist and a bow on her back, she was a fighter. The two guards she had decapitated scrambled to their feet grabbing her arms, pulling her backwards. "Let me speak!" she shouted flicking out of their grasps and running towards the king,

"Sire forgive me, I mean no harm" she said bowing her head "I am princess Sophia of Firegate, I am here to warn you"

"You are King Lucifer's daughter?" he replied.

"Not exactly, my Mother, Queen Emilia, had another partner before the King and found she was carrying me after she was married to Lucifer. My mother died four years ago and he hadn't been the same since. He turned what I could only describe as evil, and when he found that I was not his child he sentenced me to death, I escaped just in time. I fought my way out of the Kingdom" I felt sorry for her, my heart warmed to her and I wondered if I could help.

"What has this got to do with me?" Uther said harshly.

"Nothing my lord, but this does" she retrieved a letter from the bag on her back. There was a long pause whilst Uther read it and then. "Firegate's army attacks in two days, be ready" he said and walked out.

Lady Sophia stood there, stunned to silence. She spun round facing us all, the whole courtroom of Knights' mouths dropped open as they took in her stunning beauty. Her face was slightly worried, eyebrows pulled together in a panic stricken expression and eyes searching all of ours. Looking for someone, then her eyes froze on somebody, I looked across, it was Merlin. Their eyes had met, their gazes locked for a few seconds, and then she looked away. Merlin stood still and ridged glued to the spot. She had magic, I knew instantly. Merlin thought I hadn't noticed him, that he two had magic and that I didn't know the signs. She had just told him something with her mind and it had shocked him completely, he was stood like an ice sculpture.

"Gwen, please show Lady Sophia to her quarters" said Arthur, eyes only for Gwen. There was a lot of groaning from the knights as they wanted her to stay a bit longer.

Gwen lead her out the hall, the princess glanced back at Merlin as she went. I walked over Merlin "What was that all about?" I asked concerned, eyes searching his expression.

"Errrrm, nothing" he said avoiding my scrutiny.

"I know about your magic" I whispered to his ear. He looked astounded, eyes wide and fearful. "Don't worry, I would never watch you burn" I said seriously.

"I've got to somewhere" he muttered scurrying off. I sighed before grabbing a chicken leg and stalking after him. Munching as I went. Mmmmmmm this chicken was gooood.

GWEN'S POV

"This way my lady" I said bowing my head.

"Ooh, I don't like having servants" she said "Can we be friends instead?" she asked, I was surprised but glad.

"Yes, I would like that" I answered smiling.

"It's just here my Lady" I opened the door to her room.

"Please, call me Sophia" she sighed, smiling at me.

"There are dresses in the wardrobe, I will bring you some food soon"

"Thank you Gwen"

"It's alright my, sorry, Sophia" I stammered backing out of the room. She laughed from behind the screen where she had taken a green dress from the wardrobe and was undressing.

GWAINE'S POV

I had finished my chicken so I shadowed to a room, Gwen came out and he hid in the shadows, I mirrored his actions. When she had gone, Merlin walked into the room, I followed quickly, dashing behind a tapestry.

"Sophia" Merlin said. She gasped turning round, popping her head over the screen.

"Merlin, I'm not wearing any clothes" she laughed, I squirmed to look but unfortunately I couldn't see anything. Woops maybe I had had too much mead, still not enough in my opinion!

The princess was dressed now in a striking green, she was stunning.

"So" Merlin began "You're my sister?" he asked siting on the bed.

She sat next to him "Yes, my real father is your father. I never met him" she said looking down.

"I did, just once before he died" he said sadly.

"Was he a dragon lord?" she asked him, looking into his eyes. I've heard of them, they were the most powerful warlocks.

"Yes" he whispered I strained to hear.

"And you are one?"

"Yes but so are you"

"I know, although not as powerful as you" she chucked lightly.

"What is going to happen?" he wondered worried.

"I will tell you and the Knights of the round table, tomorrow. It is their destiny as well yours and mine"

When they had gone, I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. Wow okay, so Merlin and the Princess were brother and sister and were both dragon lords! This was a lot to take in. I had to speak to Merlin, but it was my night off, so I was off to the tavern.

OoOoOoOoO

After a few drinks (I couldn't remember how many) I was stood propping up the bar, or the bar was propping me up, I heard the tavern door opening. Then there came lots of whistles as the contents of the pub looked at the new arrival. I turned round trying not to fall and saw Lady Sophia walking towards the bar, she stopped next to me.

"Hello Mary" she began. Mary turned to her.

"Hi Sophia! How've you been?" the barmaid asked.

"Not too bad" she replied with a smile.

"What can I get ya?"

"A tankard of mead please" I was surprised, wine was usually a women's drink but what the hell? She got her drink and took a swig, she could tell I was staring because she turned her eyes on me.

"Are you alright?" she wondered, noticing my lack of balance.

"Yes M'lady" I said, slurring my words.

"Call me Sophia, Sir Gwaine" she laughed

"How'd you know my name?"

"You were in my room were you not?"

I blushed deeply "Errrrm, yes" I said ashamed.

"Don't worry about it" she chuckled. "You were in the hall, you had a name card"

"You notice everything" I gasped.

"Please don't turn us in" she whispered moving closer to me.

"I will say to you what I said to Merlin. I would never watch you or your brother burn" I whispered turning my head meeting her eyes, our noses almost touching.

"Thank you" she whispered too, going back to her drink.
