Hello, ArticWolf Here!

Yes I know artic is misspelled it is the combination of art and arctic.

Anyway this is my first fanfic. I actually wrote this in high school so I am just changing little things and editing it.

I actually told someone on here about it in their review section of their story of this site, so if you are reading this... Hi and I took your advice to post it. Unfortunately I couldn't find the story I was reading so I can't find their user name to put here. T.T If I find it I will edit this part! Edit 3-29-19: I happened to find them! Their user name is JinMukang!

So yeah... enjoy the first chapter! Don't worry they will be longer later!

Disclaimer: All characters are owned by Merlin BBC. Takes place in season oneish, so Morgana is still good and dosn't know she has magic.

Prince Arthur was angry… scratch that… he was furious! His idiot manservant Merlin had once again not shown up for work, thus making the prince late for a council meeting with his father. Uther had been ready to punish Merlin, before Arthur made the point that since Merlin was his manservant that he should be the one to dish out the punishment.

This is why Arthur was now storming down the halls of the castle, servants and nobles alike scattering out of the raging prince's way, to the physicians' chambers. He had decided that he was going to put Merlin in the stocks for the day, then give the idiot extra chores. He deserved it Arthur decided, after all he had made Arthur miss breakfast!

All of this was forgotten, however, when he barged into Gaius' chambers…

"Merlin calm down…"

'I Can't Gaius! I Have a Tail!"

…to find him talking to a black cat, with familiar blue eyes, sitting on the table. Both the cat and court physician snapped their heads toward the door and froze.

After taking a quick glance around the room. Arthur looked that the animal on the table with an unamused expression.

"Merlin, you better have a good explanation… or am I going to have to extend the list of chores I already made?"

'What?!'

(Earlier that Morning)

Merlin woke that morning feeling quite strange. For one his blanket was somehow not only over his feet but also his head. He wondered for a moment if he had accidentally made it bigger with magic in his sleep. 'Hopefully not, or Gaius will give me the eye brow of doom for doing magic so obviously.' The last thing he remembered before going to sleep was reading his magic book.

"Merlin!" His door banged against the wall. "It's time to get up, otherwise you will be late… Merlin! What have I told you about leaving the magic book out in the open! What if it was Arthur that came in and not me!"

"Merlin? What on Earth…" Gaius' voice turned slightly concerned. Not that Merlin noticed, as he was trying to get untangled. "Sorry Gaius! Ugh why can't I get out." Merlin muttered. He was having a hard time controlling his limbs. 'Shouldn't I have fallen off my bed by now, did I make that larger too?!'

Suddenly he got hit in the face with something that definitely shouldn't be in his bed. 'A Tail?! What is a cat doing in my bed!? Oh no…'

Gaius, having seen the trouble his ward was having getting out of the blanket, lifted it off him hesitantly. (He had seen what the book had been opened to. And with the mews and growls come from over here…) "Oh Merlin. What have you done now?"

On Merlin's bed lay, just as he feared, a rumpled black cat with striking blue eyes. The cat looked up at him with a confused and slightly frightened.

"Meow?"

Have any of y'all ever used the read aloud speech in Word? I found it today and let it read this...It was the funniest thing ever. I don't even know why, but every time it said idiot I burst out laughing.

Anyway if any of you want a prompt idea I have some in my bio. If you have any questions about them PM me.

Leave a review and tell me how it is.
