A/N: As always, this isn't slash.

Disclaimer: I do not own Merlin.


Where Do We Go From Here?

"You're a sorcerer?"

"Warlock, technically," Merlin answered, not quite meeting the prince's eyes.

"I should take you back to Camelot for you to await trial," Arthur said, not wanting to believe the words he was saying.

"You know as well as I do that there will be no fair trial," Merlin said. "If I'm to die for the crime of being born with magic, then you should finish this yourself." Merlin's eyes flashed gold again, sending Arthur's sword flying off the ground - where it landed during battle - back into its owner's hand.

Merlin turned away from Arthur, awaiting his decision.


A/N: Okay, so what did y'all think? I was sort of in the mood to write something kind of dramatic today. :)

If you thought that maybe Merlin seemed a little OOC, it's just because I was thinking last night that you always see Merlin go willingly to the dungeons. But what if he didn't? What if wasn't going to give up on his destiny so easily? What if he was like, "If you want me dead Arthur, you're going to have to do it yourself."

Haha, I don't know, it was just a thought. :)

Also, if y'all did like this, then maybe I might write more drabbles? Maybe turn this into a series? So, please review and let me know what you thought!
