Merlin walked through the forest collecting wood, it was late November and it was starting to get cold so merlin figured he would stack the wood pile up so him and his mother had enough to last through the winter. When there came a high piercing sound merlin fell to his knees and coved his ears. When the sound had ended he heard fighting and screams. Once the screams stopped merlin headed in the direction they had came.
The sight he came upon was horrible, there laid bodies here and there and a large beast with blood soaking the ground. He checked for survivors, he was ready to walk away for the smell of the blood was making him sick, when he heard a sound at first he thought it he was imagining it, but then he heard it again. He ran over to the small figure that laid half way under the creature. Merlin crouched down and rested his head on his chest and heard a slow and shallow heart beat.
He grabbed his arms and tried to free him from under the creature with no luck. Then with a flash of gold he was free. Merlin lifted the figure and carried him to a small cave near by and stated a fire and ran back home. Merlin quickly told the story to his mom, who gave him a few blankets and some food and told him to be careful. Merlin laid a blanket out and went over to the man on the floor or so he thought.
He began to remove the armor, so he could breathe better, when he saw a deep gash on his right should, he pulled back the fabric to heal the wound when he realized some else, that the small figure that laid on the cold cave floor was not a man but a women he quickly healed the wound and checked the fire. Merlin stared at the small girl on the floor, he had to admit she was pretty, with her blonde short hair and her small figure but for even a girl she had hard strong muscles.
The next few days he tended to her and talked to her, he told her every thing about him and his mother and his best friend Will. The fourth night Merlin heard voice calling out and then three men stormed in the cave, merlin stood with a small knife in his hand ready to fight. When a knight walked up to him and said "We mean no harm to you", "we have been looking for him for days" he pointed to the small figure on the floor. "Him, you mean her don't you?" Merlin asked confused.
"So you know then" the knight said. "Sir we should get her back" a knight behind the knight in front of merlin said. "Thank you for saving her" The knight said as he lifted her up. "Wait what is her name?" merlin called the knight that was in the back turned around and answered "Sarah and what is yours so we can tell her when she wakes up?" the knight asked politely. "Merlin" merlin answered as he watches the men mount their horse and ride away.
