Here is the second chapter, Merlin doesn't belong to me~

Merlin strode out in front of the sorcerers and cleared his throat to make them look up to him, "Look, I know many of you still think of me as Arthur's manservant, but if we want to win this war I am going to have to ask you to do as I say. Now, how many of you have had practice in healing arts?" A couple of hands were raised, " Good, I want you to go to the physicians tent, even if you do know fighting arts, because good healers are few and far between. Next, who has more power in defense then offense?" More then three fourths of the rest of the hands were raised.

" Okay, you who raised your hands are going to create a shield together to protect this entire encampment."

"That is impossible!" One of the voices shouted out, and others muttered behind him.

"It isn't if we all combine our powers together, and I back you up with my strength," was Merlin's quick reply. He turned to the few left who could do attacks, " You will also be behind the shield, but your attacks will go through, try to preserve your strength, use magic that has the biggest effect with the least amount of power used, I might suggest starting fires, they spook horses and no sane human wants to ride right into one."

"But, we can't burn the fields!" A youngish voice rang out, and Merlin turned to find one of the farmers he had made friends with was looking up at him, and Merlin smiled, "With all you know about me, do you really think that I would leave the fields to burn?"

The girl stopped and thought for a moment, before flashing a small smile and nodding her head.

"We will lead the first part of the defense, and when the time is right, the druids will come out of hiding to add their magics to ours," Merlin turned towards the low rumble as Morgana's army came closer and closer, "After me, Gescildan"

...

Morgana had been looking out over the rest of her army as they thundered forward towards her castle. To say she was shocked to see a giant golden dome cover the entirety of the other army was an underestimate. She knew that Arthur had allowed magic back, but she knew that he was just using it to draw out all the magic users and then kill them when they thought they were safe. "Idiots," she hissed into the wind that whipped past her, and raised her hand into the air, "ATTACK!"

...

The two armies met. The charge met lanes of spears laid down to greet them, causing the first two lines of assault to fall, but with the loss of their spears the grizzly battle had begun. Swords met swords and the clangs echoed across the field. Arthur turned and took down one enemy after another. He could see the effects of the barrier Merlin had made as he noticed that the sorcerers who had stayed back on the other side found their magic to be of no effect. He smiled grimly as he took down yet another foe, and turned just in time to see Gwaine take down some kind of giant creature, "Having fun yet Queeny!"

Arthur just turned around and continued to fight his way towards his sister, his enemy. He did a quick over view of the battle field, and was happy to see that the lines were holding and Morgana's army was being pushed back. "NO, ARTHUR DUCK!" Merlin's voice rang through his head, causing him to jerk and fall off his horse. As he was tipping back he noticed an arrow slice through the air and fly past him, embedding itself in a peasants arm.

He was at a sever disadvantage without his horse, but in less then a second he was being pulled up by his arm, and spun around so his back was facing his best friends.

"MERLIN! What the hell are you doing, I know you are the main one holding up the shields," Arthur yelled as he thrust and parried while circling, Merlin always keeping up with the constant motion, "It's fine, I will probably sleep for days afterwords, anyway, I'm not letting you die, I put way to much effort into turning you into some kind of human." Merlin was blasting away at people near him, and suddenly turned around and shouted out into the sky, his eyes turning bright gold.

...

Morgana raised her head as she heard a cry of pure magic, so pure that it seemed to burrow itself deep into her soul. "Who can have that kind of power?" She urged her horse forward, but then staggered back when hundreds of druids streamed from the trees, surrounding her armies on all sides, and even circling around their back. They were completely surrounded. "My lady," one of the men near her shouted out before a blast of fire consumed him. She screamed in rage and cast her powers against the shield, but no matter how much magic she threw against it it would not break. "DAMN THEM!" was heard throughout the field.

...

"Merlin!" Arthur turned around to stop someone from skewering Merlin, who had stopped moving to try to catch his breath, "Are you suicidal?"

"Not trying to be," Merlin huffed out as his eyes glowed pure molten gold.

"Lord Emrys," a voice rang out through Merlin's head, " You may stop aiding with the shield, we have enough power to hold it by ourselves, it is time that you showed Le Fay what she is up against."

Merlin sighed and broke his connection with the shield, which at first wavered, but then stayed steady. Arthur smiled as he saw Merlin stand up straight, his eyes burning with a new light, and stepped back as Merlin took a deep breath and looked up at the sky.

Dark storm clouds appeared in an instant, the rain pelting down upon the field. Thunder and lightning filled the air, and the very earth beneath their boots shook and shivered with anticipation. Lightning struck down upon their foes, and their earth formed spikes and craters which slowed down their opponents. Some men were swallowed into large abysses, whilst others found themselves captured in vines and they had tree limbs clinging to them. The wind blew harshly against their foes, but none of Emrys's allies were affected by the wash of power.

...

Morgana reeled as she felt that amazing power again, and backed away as the very forces of nature destroyed all she had worked for. She glared through the icy rain, and felt more then saw, where that pure force was coming from. She forced her horse onward and tried to traverse her way through the maze. The earth below her suddenly disappeared, and she tumbled off her horse as it fell down into some kind of bog. She screeched and moved onward, hair flying behind her and magic streaming out in pure malice. She stopped as she felt herself coming close to the center, and stopped in her tracks when she saw who was in the middle of the golden vortex.

"Merlin."
