This is the second chapter of this story (obviously). Please don't expect me to update every day, I only want to get this started so I can get more readers. As I promised, this one is about twice as long as the first chapter. Last chapter was Merlin's POV, now time for Morgana's.

DISCLAIMER: I sadly do not own Merlin. :(


Morgana was quickly looking though Arthur's thing. Morgause needed to see a map of all Camelot including any secret passages that would help Cenred's army to win. She had already gone through Uther's chambers, but she had no luck. She looked up and saw a chest on the top a Arthur's wardrobe. She walked over to it and carefully started to lower it down. CRASH! Morgana dropped the chest, with all its contents flowing out of it. She froze as she heard voices.

"MERLIN!" Arthur yelled.

"Yes, Sire?" Merlin replied, sounding very close to the room.

"What stupid object have you knocked over now?" Arthur continued to yell.

"I assure you, Sire, I have not knocked down anything," she heard Merlin say confusedly. He sounded like he was right by the door. She unfroze and ran behind the curtain, the only safe place. Morgana heard them talking, but didn't bother to hear what they were saying. She couldn't risk getting caught. She stood stiller than a stone, and was quieter than a mouse. Finally she heard them leave. Morgana started to come out from behind the curtain quietly to see Merlin still there cleaning the mess up. She panicked and ran back behind the curtain. She was lucky. His back was facing her, so he didn't notice a thing. She sighed silently in relief. That would not have ended well.

It seemed like eternity before Merlin got up and left. At that point Morgana quickly ran out the room before anyone else could come. She went strait to her chambers. She knew she still had to get the map, but she just wanted to take a break after sitting quietly behind a curtain for hours.

"Milady," Gwen said relieved. "I have been waiting for you to return! Where have you been?"

"Around," Morgana snapped. "Why would it concern you?"

Gwen frowned. "It is my responsibility to make sure you are okay! Is there a problem?"

"Of course not, Gwen," she assured her falsely. "I just don't feel too well at the moment, so please excuse my rudeness."

"Of course, Milady! Should I summon Gaius to make sure you're not too ill?"

"Oh no, Gwen. I assure you I'm fine, it's just that I'm a bit tired."

"Is there anything I can get for you?" Gwen asked worriedly.

"Just a glass of water," Morgana told her.

Gwen curtsied and walked out of the room. She returned quickly with a metal jug full of water and a cup. She poured the liquid to the rim and handed it over to Morgana. Morgana was sure to sniff it to make sure it wasn't poisoned. It had been a natural reflex since Merlin had poisoned her. She drank the water, thinking about how she was going to obtain the map. It wasn't in Uther's or Arthur's chambers, so that would mean it would be in the mapping room. She would have to plan her next steps carefully. She couldn't afford to be caught.

"Milady, would you mind if I took the rest of the night off? I believe I am becoming ill myself," Gwen informed Morgana.

"Yes, if course you may! A long rest would be good for you!"

"Thank you, Milady," Gwen said as she curtsied and walked out the door. Morgana sat on her bed and continued to drink her water. She looked over at her windowsill and saw a beautiful white dove perched upon it. Morgana walked over to the dove and took the note that she saw tied to its feet.

"Dusk. You know where."

That was all the note said. Morgana closed her eyes and willed the note to burn. She opened them to feel the familiar tingle go throughout her body as the note set to flame.

'No one would be able to find it now,' she smirked as she let the ashes be carried away with the wind.

She looked outside to see the sun was starting to set. Morgana definitely didn't want to worry her sister so she grabbed a cloak and hurried out.

Morgana was walking down the hall when she ran into Arthur.

"Ah, Morgana!" Arthur exclaimed. "Have you seen Merlin by any chance?"

"No, I haven't," Morgana stated. "Why?"

"I just haven't seen-" he stopped in his tracks. "Hang on. What are you doing on your way out of the castle?"

"I have the right to do what I want, Arthur Pendragon!" she yelled. "It's not even dark yet!"

"It will be soon," he replied sternly. "Maybe you should take a guard with you to... Where are going, anyways?"

"Someplace where I can do what I want in PEACE!"

"You don't need to scream about it," Arthur replied. "Just go since you seem like you're in such a rush."

"That is the most sensible thing you have said all day," she said with a smile, pushing past him. She turned around. "I'm going to visit my horse," she told him, to eliminate any suspicion.

Morgana continued walked down the halls and started down the road to the stables. She was going to be late. It was already dusk and she hadn't even gotten a horse yet. She finally got to the stables and went to her white stallion. She turned around the corner to be pulled by the arm by an unknown person. She was quite surprised, she didn't even bother to see who is was as she struggled out of their grip.

"Stop your squirming, I only want to talk," a familiar man's voice said to her. She didn't know why, she just felt she needed to obey. She looked into his eyes.

"Merlin! LET GO OF ME!" Morgana screamed.

"Only if you won't run," Merlin replied calmly.

"How dare you! I'll go strait to Uther about this!"

"We both know you won't, Morgana," he said. "You never have."

"Fine! I promise I won't run, NOW LET GO!" she demanded. She couldn't help but notice how strong he was, holding her firmly. She looked into his eyes. "Please."

He let go of her. She kept her promise, she didn't even move a muscle. They were still close together, still touching.

"What are you up to?" Merlin asked.

"What are you talking about?"

"You were searching through Arthur's chambers earlier. I want you to tell me why."

Morgana froze. She was certain no one had saw her, not even Merlin. "What are you talking about? I haven't been even close to Arthur's chambers all day!"

Merlin eyed her. "Really? Then who would have done such a thing?"

"How would I know? You were the one who was there!"

"Why are you lying to me?"

"Who said I was lying?"

"Stop playing games, Morgana. I want answers," he said angrily.

"Well that's too bad because you're not getting any," she told him as she turned to her horse.

"Where are you going?" Merlin asked.

"That is none of your concern."

"Actually, it is. I'm Arthur's servant, therefore, it is part of my duty to keep BOTH of you safe," he told her.

"I'm going on a ride," she said, getting on the horse.

"Really? In the dark? Then someone must accompany you."

"Stop with the smart talk, Merlin, but I best be on my way if I should get back before midnight."

"Tell your army I say hi!"

"Shut up, Merlin."

And with that she rode off into the darkness.
