This is my first Merlin fic, if you have not watched episode 3x13 you might not want to read this. Set right after it.
It is clear that i do not own any of the tv series character, but I hope you enjoy it =). R&R
Arrows
The forrest was really dark; of course they knew it was going to be like that, but they could't actually search for them in that black environment. They could hear every single sound, the leaves cracking under their feet, the sound of the fierce wind that fought the trees' branches, the sound of birds on their nests, a couple of owls; however, they didn't hear anything that resembled any human presence. That was either a good or a really bad thing, after all Morgause was a witch; therefore, she was in no need of moving or make a sound in order to attack them, but they could easily resist her attacks, she was hurt.
"Silence" - a voice said
"Are you telling us to be quiet or are you actually stating the fact that there's no one here?" - another voice responded, bringing some low laughs from a third one.
"Shut up, listen very careful, someone's watching us" - the first voice responded. At this point the group gathered in a circle with their backs at each other, troubled by the upsetting darkness.
"How do you know that? Can you see in this darkness, because that would be…" a third voice started to say, but was suddenly interrupted by a flash of fire that hit a tree and a several arrows attack.
"MOVE!" the voice of a blond man rang in the woods. After his message, the other six men ran in different directions, all of them trying to remain safe from the arrows that seemed to come from everywhere. They were trapped.
The only one of them not wearing an armor hid behind a tree, raised his hand and started murmuring words, he was safe now. He laid on the floor and crept towards the place where some arrows seemed to come. Silently, he took a knife out of his pocket and buried it on the archer's leg. The man yelled and that distraction allowed the knights to run and find the rest of the archers attacking them.
They were safe now, or at least for now. They faced each other wondering if everyone was all right; all of them looked extremely worried, and some of them tired and in pain, but besides that, nobody was deadly harmed. They sat for a second helping each other to take some arrows out of their armors and heal a bit the superficial hurts that the they left. They knew for sure that they couldn't stand there for too long, but they couldn't keep walking too much if they weren't in a fair condition. Little they know that the ambush had just begun.
