Endurance
Author note: This is my first Fanfiction but an idea I've had for a while, I accept criticism but please try make it constructive! I'm sorry its so short, but I promise future chapters will be longer. I don't know how often I'll be able to update as I am in the middle of my GCSE's and my mocks are in January, but I'll try update as much as possible! Hope you enjoy!
Please REVIEW!

Chapter 1:
Morgana watched the courtyard before has as the citizens fled, desperately trying to escape the crossbow bolts she had fired into their midst as the knights refused to bow to their rightful queen. Despite the rush of people, Morgana could still stop the bodies of people lying prone on the floor, not quite fast enough to escape her soldiers. Still more bodies were revealed as the people trampled one another in their attempt to escape the bolts. Animals. She grinned to herself as she watched Sir Leon's look of horror, soon they would learn that it was better for everyone if they just gave in now instead of suffering and continuing their allegiance to Uther.
Her smile fled from her face as she thought about her father, the man who had slaughtered hundreds, no, thousands in his endless battle against magic, how he would have killed her had he known of the truth of her magic.
She looked out at the battlements of the place that used to be her safe haven from the safety of the balcony. It was only late morning and there was still a lot do before the day was done.
Morgana was not blind and nor was she an idiot, she had seen what her betrayal had done to Uther, to his mind, and knew that he was not in a position to go against her. Even if he had the means. No. The only one that even stood a chance of stopping her now was the one who still haunted her dreams. The one she saw in every shadow, every flicker in the corner of her eye. Emrys.
Though soon, even he would not matter. Morgause had made a discovery, a discovery that would change everything. In a few more days all the requirements of the spell would be met and not only would the allusive Emrys be visible to her at last, but the method of his discovery would be delectable and something she had prayed for, for the entirety of her knowledge of him and his destiny. A twisted smirk made its way onto her face and a gleam entered her eyes that promised no mercy.
She turned to go meet Morgause to discuss what preparations needed to be made.
Just a few more days…..
