Meant To Be
Chapter One
Arianna Pendragon groaned as the early morning sun shone into her dorm room. She was now thirteen years old living in Worchester with Merlin. She had her long hair which was brown like Artie's, her mother's eyes and features. She was slender but wasn't like any of the other girls that were at Worchester.
For example she was an ogre in appearance which threw people off seeing as she was the heir to Artie and Marissa's throne when she was ready.
She looked cute for an ogre.
The other thing that threw people off were her magical gifts. She'd inherited them from her mother.
She was always learning spells from her grandfather Merlin but sometimes her magic emerged by accident like making the jousting team levitate off their horses after they teased her last week.
She was also a tomboy and liked being around the jousting field and was on the Archery team.
But besides that, she was lonely. None of the other kids would dare to approach her because of her ogre like appearance and magic.
She was always wandering the campus on her own after classes but people always made fun of her.
Merlin found her eating alone in her dorm room.
"Arianna are you alright? You haven't shown up for classes and I was worried for you." he said gently.
"I'm fine Granfather.
I-I just need time alone, okay?" the girl answered sadly but he could hear deep sadness in her voice and saw sadness in her emerald eyes.
"Okay then I'll be in my room if you need me or you want to talk, okay?" the wizard told her.
Ari nodded in reply. She was holding in the tears until he left and it was safe to.
They then came fast and fell down her face and her black clothes.
"W-Why am I a freak, a monster? Why do I have magic?
Why won't my grandfather talk about my parents everytime I ask?" she asked herself as she wiped away the tears.
She then lay on her bed thinking but fell asleep after a while.
She didn't know Merlin had heard her......
He needed to leave Worchester for a few hours as he vanished......
