Merlin
Pinned against a wall with an angry ghost who had ruled ruthlessly for over 20 years, I hadn't been having the best of days, to say the least.
"I'll take great pleasure in killing you." Uther grinned, striding toward me.
"Father!" I heard Arthur yell from somewhere in the castle.
He wasn't in sight, but he was close enough to scare his father a little. But would it be enough for Uther to leave? I just hoped Arthur wouldn't be too late.
Arthur
Running at full speed, I arrived in the east side of the armory a minute after I had yelled for my father. If it weren't for the metal cling I heard shortly afterward I probably wouldn't have found Merlin before it was too late. Uther was nowhere in sight, but I was more concerned about the body of my serving boy unconscious on the cold floor.
Arthur
"Gaius!" I heard myself yell, carrying Merlin into the physician's chambers.
Gaius looked up from the book he was reading, his face falling when he saw the motionless body in my arms.
"Bring him over here!" Gaius demanded, clearing the table he was working at. "What happened?"
I set Merlin down on the table making sure not to bump him too much.
"All I know is he's alive. I got there after my fath- … Uther had left. He was going to kill him until he heard me coming."
I watched as Gaius worked in silence on the still servant. 'I wish he would move.' My panicked mind almost screamed. A minute or so later, I got my wish, but not in the way I had wanted, Merlin's body started moving violently, and there was nothing I could do as my friend went into a seizure.
