AN: So a Merlin story, i know i should finish all my other ones but i cant this has been in my head for ages, so here it goes.
A girl with the lightest shade of brown, tall yet not quite, eyes of green, with blue in them, the girl you may ask who? we'll she is the princess of Avlon, as the she girl was walking thru the castle, people were as blur to her, her mind you may ask, was focused on the conversation she had with the King, known as her father.
"Emilia, this is for the best, your Uncle Uther, has asked for you to stay there, he's a good man, he'll take care of you, no one shall harm you" he's word didn't even let the princess, say a thing but refuse, "but father, I am the princess of Avlon, not Camelot! I belong here! mother wouldnt let me go" she tried, yet the father shook his head, "your mother agrees, I love you but, you must go, not for me but for your mother, for your brother, for Marcus, she wants you to be there, just a couple of months, maybe a year but nothing too long, please." the king who never begged was begging his daughter.
"alright father, as you wish" she sighed and curtsied.
right now she was on her way to her room, once the princess walked in, she saw that her room had her mother, the queen, her brother Ronald, or Ron, Jinny her loyal servant, Cedric the physician, and last but not least her close friend Marcus prince of Willowsale, she ran straight to her brother, who received her with open arms, he embraced her tight, and she returned the gesture.
"we all tried but this is for the best, you'll love Camelot, and besides you loved it when you were there" he told his princess, the only sister he ever had, she shook her head, "no please Ronny, I don't want to go" she told him, "please Ron im begging of you, please" she looked at him pleading, with tears streaming down her face, "ill try talking to him to letting me or anyone go with you and Jinny" he mumbled to her, he whipped away the tears away, "relax" he told her.
she pulled away from him nodding, Jinny came forward and embraced her, running her hands thru her hair, "relax you'll have me, and we can practice swords fighting, paint, and we can ride horses too, you'll have fun at Camelot, its amazing i promise you" she told her, and the princess smiled, Ron left with Jinny no doubt to talk he had a thing for her and she too, Mother and Cedric left leaving her with Marcus.
he came forward, "you know I will go with you, stay there for a bit, visit from time to time, and um ill write you, and um ill... um im going to miss you" he said timidly, she laughed and hugged him, "oh hush up you big prick, ill miss you too" she told him and they laughed together.
Camelot was big, the princess smiled briefly at Ron, who came with her to make sure everything was ok, "see it brings back memories, and you know Uncle Utther is still the same just a bit older, and Arther will he grew up" he told her with a smirk, she nodded her head, she was close to her uncle, they wrote letters to each other, and he was a great person.
Ron wrapped an arm around his sister, and she leaned in closer to him, "you know Arthur might be a good one for her" said Sir Johnathan, she turned to him, and gave him a playful glare, and the knights and Marcus started to laughed at her, and she could feel Ron's chuckles, "oh hush up you 5" she told them, "ill race you guys there" she told them, and they raced they're, yet the princess beat them all.
on the steps stood a handsome sir, with blonde hair and blue eyes, waiting for the princess and the prince to arrive, he saw 6 figures racing there, but they slowed down, and the girl who was in the front turned, to the 5 men and laughed, he smiled not knowing why, her laugh just made him happy.
the girl was beautiful, as she went off her horse, he saw Ronald, and the familiar faces of the knights, yet for the strange guy besides, the princess.
Ron smiled, "Arthur!" he said, and the prince smiled, 'Ronald!" and they embraced each other, Arthur said his greetings to knights, because he knew the, "and this is my lovely princess Emilia" said Ronald, Arthur bowed down, and she curtsied, "lady Emilia" said Arthur, and the girl stood up, "please call me Emily" she told him, and Ron laughed, "your highness" she smiled at him.
The prince saw that the princess was no normal princess, "well father is dying to meet you" he told her, she smiled the brightest smile he has ever saw and the prettiest, "um.. after you, my.. my lady" he stumbled, Ron looked at Sir Johnathan with a knowing look, and the rest of the knights chuckled,
they walked up the stone steps, and entered the kings throne room, the king, was sitting a top his throw, when they walked in he got up, and walked to them, "Emilia, Ronald" he said happily, Emilia smiled, "Uncle" said Ron being all formal, the king rolled his eyes smiling at Emilia who rolled her eyes at Ronald's formal ways, she walked over to the king and he embraced her, she returned the gesture, "sweet, lovely Emilia, so glad that you could come" he told her as he let go of her, and held her in arm's length, "ah Ronald your description of her is so very off" he told my brother, i walked away a bit so Johnathan and the knights could bow.
"sire" they told him, he nodded his head, then Marcus bowed, "Uncle this is Prince Marcus of Willowsale, a close friend of Emilia" told him Ronald, the king nodded his head, "ah the son of Lord Frederick the second, a friend of Emily is a friend of mine" said the king.
we were showing to our rooms, princess Emilia was beautiful but nothing compared to her room back in Avlon, Marcus and her were walking in the castle ground, when they saw Arthur and his men, practicing, the princess who always loved swords, walked over to the side, next to Arthur, "your highness" she curtsied teasingly, yet it was so graceful, he smiled, "my lady" he bowed, she rolled her eyes, "no my lady just Emily, or anything else" she told him, as he nodded his head towards Marcus who returned the gesture.
the princes ignored the look both prince's shared, and turned to the men fighting, "the dark-haired man is going to lose" she told them both, Arthur asked, "how so?" Marcus smiled knowing her gift, "his footing is all wrong" she explained just then, the dark-haired man got his sword flown out of his hand, "told you so" said the princess, and every pair of eye turned to the beautiful lady, besides the future king, "alright Issac you and Mathews shall fight" said Arthur, as every man started to show off trying to empress the princess.
after a couple of rounds, the princess spoke out loud, every knight in the arena became quite, "i must be going, prince Marcus and I still have more exploring" she told the future king, she curtsied, she walked to Marcus, he smiled, "had fun?" he asked her, "very" she told him smiling, he gave her his arm as they walked to other places in the ground.
not knowing that a certain blonde prince was glaring at Marcus's back, and Merlin his loyal servant came beside him, "i see someone has a liking towards King Josephs daughter, no?" he said, and Arthur turned his glare to Merlin, "oh hush up" he said.
"Arthur" called out the king's ward, the dark-haired lady, said to the blonde haired prince, he smiled, "Morgana where have you been all day, it's almost noon" he told her, Morgana smiled, "oh just talking to Gwen" said to him with a light smirk, everyone thought that the prince fancied Gwen, but those feelings have been long gone.
he nodded his head, "well im off to go get the princess, care to join me?" he asked the girl who was a sister to him, "yes its been ages since i last saw her" said Morgana, she took his arm and together they walked to the princess room.
Emilia and Marcus were in her room, laughing at a joke Marcus said, "Emilia i see your all happy" said Ronald, she nodded her head, and the door opened and in came Arthur and a beautiful girl who could only and easily be known as Morgana, "Emily!" said the beautiful woman as she embraced her, "its been ages" she told the princess, "indeed" replied the princess, as they pulled away, Jinny bowed, "my lady" she told Morgana, "my Lord" she told Arthur.
Morgana looked at Ron, and curtsied, "your highness" she told him smiling, he bowed, "Morgana always a pleasant to see you" he told her, Marcus bowed, "Morgana always the honor of seeing you" she smiled and curtsied, "and i you Marcus" she replied.
Arthur nodded at Emilia, "i came to get you for a nice trip around the grounds" he told her, she looked at Ron who nodded, "alright, Jinny you can stay here, ill have Marcus with me" she told her, knowing that her brother wanted to spend sometime with her, Jinny nodded her head, "if that's what you wish" Emilia smiled, as Marcus gave his arm to Morgana, Emilia rolled her eyes, her friend always had a thing for Morgana.
Morgana and Marcus walked out talking, Arthur and her followed suit, Arthur with his hands behind his back, Emilia was in another nice dress, it was beneath her knees, blue with gold etchings on it, and it was fitting in all the right places, and she was wearing a golden locket, with her hair down and half of it was up in a simple yet in an elegant way.
and then Merlin was walking out of Arthur's chambers which was next door, to Emilia and they collided, Merlin fell and the clothes he had fell too, but the princess got held by Arthur, she gasped, "im so sorry" she said, as she got down to help Merlin pick up the clothes, "its ok my lady, its my fault" said Merlin, but she shook it off as she got up and handed him the clothes, "please call me Emily, and its ok we both weren't seeing where we were going" she told him.
Merlin smiled, "my names Merlin" he told her, she smiled, "a pleasure to meet you Merlin, ill see-" she was cut off by Arthur, "really Merlin? can you be anymore stupid? watch where your going, and don't forget to polish my armor, sharpen my sword and fix my shield!" said Arthur rather rudely, which got Emilia angry, "don't be rude! he wasnt seeing where he was going and its my fault! Merlin doesn't deserve to do all those stuff because of me, and besides he's human so be nice to him!" she told him angrily, as Merlin nodded his head, "yes Arthur" and he walked away.
she huffed, and walked away, ahead of Marcus and Morgana, far, far ahead, "she was nice a minute ago" mumbled the prince.
the next day, the princess stood in the court room, embracing Sir Johnathan, "take care of your self little devil, and don't let anyone bug you, remember hit where the sun doesn't shine, and write me the most, and one word that your hurt ill come here first" he told her, "got it Emily?" he said softening a bit, he always had a weak spot towards the princess they all did.
"take care of your self John, behave, don't go around starting fights, and let Ron and the rest be on good terms" she told him, "ill miss you too and i will write you" she let go of him, and he kissed her forehead, "be careful, the princess always must be careful" he told her, next came Presusue, the big guy was almost in tears.
he embraced her tightly, "im going to miss you Emily, more than these mean people would ever tell you, take care of your self, and don't play with swords, don't go into the woods alone, and be careful" said the man who was always so stiff, she nodded her head, "ah Percy, take care of your self, remember to put on your silver helmet in a fight, practice starts at 9 sharp, don't be late, write me, and try to keep Ron and John out of fights" she told him, as he embraced her once more and kissed her forehead.
Lucas came, and he grinned "Emily oh sweet, sweet, adventure seeking Emily, leave the books to side for a bit, try practicing on your bow, behave, don't fight, don't bicker, don't pick fights and eat when its time to eat" he told her, and she nodded her head, "take care fo your self, be careful, good luck in keeping those moronic men in place, let Ron and the rest behave, and be on their top behavior, or else" she told him, and he embraced her and kissed the top of her head.
then came Alexander, he embraced her, "behave and blah blah blah, ill miss you, write me, remember that the left shoe will always face left, and the right will face right" he told her, teasingly, "your all grown up now, try to break a few hearts, and we'll miss you" he told her, she nodded her head, he kissed her forehead and fixed her hair, "wouldn't want anyone to see the princess like this, now would we" he told her, she laughed with the rest.
then came Ronald, he embraced his sister tightly, "ill miss you, take care of your self, listen to what you're told, take care of mother and father for me, don't start fights, always be on your best, after all you're the future king, try to behave once in a while, and don't leave your duties, got it? i love you brother, take care of everyone for me" she told him, he nodded his head.
"listen here, you're a princess never give up on your words, be on your best, show people whom you are, make me proud, and don't go hurting your self, don't enter the forest alone and if you have a nightmare please do tell Uther or Arthur ok? and i love you more than you can imagine possible, take care of Jinny shes the girl of my heart, the love of my life please" he told her, he kissed her forehead and cheek.
he went to give his farewell to Jinny while no one was there, minutes after he was done, Uther, Morgana and Uther came in, with Merlin and Gwen, she turned to Marcus and tried to give him a smile, but the tears already fell, he walked over to her, embraced her tightly and spinned her around, he put her on her feet, "ill miss you so much, take care of your self, write me as soon as you can, don't let people bring you down, keep in touch, and please if you need me with a simple letter, ill leave all my duties and be there, got it?" he told her.
she nodded her head, "ill miss you so very much, take care of your mother and father, give them my love, behave, don't leave your duties, always have your sword, visit when you can, and try not to give your father a problem, give Annabella my love and a kiss, tell her to behave, and don't forget to write me" she told him, he nodded his head, pulled away and held her hands and kissed them, then her forehead, "never" he told her.
she kissed his cheek, "don't get your self killed" she told him, he nodded his head.
Ronald looked at his uncle, "my sister is my joy, she gets hurt ill personally see to it that whom ever hurts her shall get killed, i trust that you shall take care of her, and keep her safe" he told him, then he looked at Arthur, "my princess is in your hands see to it that she is ok, and take care of your self Arthur" he told him, and the men embraced and said there farewells, and warnings.
before they left each one of them embraced her, and kissed her forehead, with a take care, and write us and we love you's she turned to Marcus and Ronald who each took a hand and left something there.
once they left, she opened her palm to see Marcus's ring and a chain in it, she put it on, and on the other hand that Ron gave her was a small pouch with a key and a letter that said: beneath your bed.
