"I, Aisling Moore, swear to protect Arthur Pendragon, from everything and everyone that will harm him," the young woman said, she was on one knee and was kneeling in front of King Uther. "And what of you, Kathryn Murphy and Áine Kelly?" King Uther asked the two young women kneeling behind Aisling. "We swear, to help Aisling keep her oath to protect Arthur," the two young women said.
King Uther nodded, happy that they would keep their oaths, and helped Aisling stand up. Aisling then turned around and helped her friends up. Suddenly, ten men burst into the throne room, they didn't wear the Camelot arms. "Get behind us, your highness," Kathryn said, and Aisling took a step, so she was standing slightly in front of Áine and Kathryn.
"What do you want?" King Uther asked. "We're here for Prince Arthur," one of the men growled. "Over my bloody body," Aisling muttered under her breath. Áine and Kathryn grinned as her Irish accent became more prominent, "Get the hell out of Camelot, before I change my mind and decide to kill you."
The men laughed, while Áine and Kathryn simply took out their swords, and Aisling stayed still, not reaching for anything. "This is your last chance," Aisling said calmly, "get. Out. Of. Camelot." "We came for Arthur, and we're not leaving without him," the same man said. "Aisling!" Áine shouted as one of the men's eyes glowed gold, and a bench went flying towards Aisling.
Aisling glanced over, and her normally brown eyes changed blue, and the bench hit some of the men instead. "You're a sorcerer!" King Uther exclaimed. "If I were you, I wouldn't be complaining about it right now," Áine said. "You know, seeing as how she's protecting you and your son," Kathryn finished, watching the men carefully.
The sorcerer let out a roar, and sent two more benches towards Aisling, who sent them flying back towards the sorcerer yet again. This time one of the benches hit the sorcerer and knocked him unconscious. "You are exiled from Camelot," King Uther said, when he was sure that Aisling had knocked out all of the men with the three benches. "As you wish, your Highness," Aisling said, and as the three young women went to leave the throne room, Aisling fell to the ground and let out a shout of pain. An arrow was in her right thigh.
"Áine, Kathryn, you can go completely and utterly mental on that archer if you want," Aisling said. The two women looked at each other and grinned before sprinting out of the Throne Room. "Your Highness, I will keep my oath and try to stay out of Camelot, if I can," Aisling said to Uther, "but my oath is more important than my life." Uther watched in amazement, as she stood up straight, and her eyes flashed blue again.
"Do me a favour," Aisling said when she was at the door, "listen to anything that Gaius tells you." King Uther glanced over at his Court Physician who was grinning at Aisling. "Of course," King Uther said. Aisling smiled slightly and walked out of the Throne Room.
A guard ran up to King Uther a few hours after Aisling, Áine and Kathryn had left Camelot. "Your Highness, we found this in Prince Arthur's crib," the guard said holding up a necklace of a wolf, with a three blue beads on both sides of the necklace and three black beads on both sides as well.
King Uther smiled as he took it from the guard. Aisling, Áine and Kathryn had basically said that they will protect Arthur, no matter what the consequences are.
