Chapter 2

In the garage at Merlin's house, everyone walked in to find that Merlin had magically transformed his small car into a large people carrier.

"I see you did it then" said Gwen.

"Yeah, there's even some child seats in there for the twins" replied Merlin.

"So can we go to Church now?" asked Arthur

"Sure, everyone in"

Ten minutes later they all arrived at the church to see the vicar who is named Reverend Pearce greeting everyone at the door. "Oh hello William, who are you friends, I haven't met them before?" asked the vicar.

"Oh hi reverend, these are my friends, Leon, Percy, Elijah, Daniel, Arthur and Jennifer and their two kids Elizabeth and Arthur Jr, they've all moved in with me" explained Merlin.

"Good, I've been telling you for years its not good to be cooped up in that big house of yours all by yourself".

"Yeah well, guys this is Reverand James Pearce, vicar at St Luke's Parish Church" introduces Merlin and then the group all say hello and they follow Merlin to seats at the back of church.

About an hour later, they all head out back to the car comparing the church they knew with the one now.

"And what was that hand shaking all about?" questioned Gwaine.

"Were you not listening it's called the Peace, you shake the hands of your neighbours to show good will to all men". says Merlin.

"How do you know so much about this time?" asks Percival.

"Because unlike you guys I didn't die, I've been alive for all these hundreds of years"

"But that's not possible" exclaims Leon.

"Well apparently it is, now come on get in the car, we need to get back and discuss you guys getting jobs" informs Merlin.

Back at the house everyone is sat around the table "So what did you say about jobs?" inquires Elyan.

"I need help supporting the cost f keeping this house, I've barely been able to do it recently, I need help. Now I was thinking about what sorts of things you guys could do, obviously Gwen would you be wanting to stay with the twins?"

"Yes"

"Okay so you guys, I've been thinking about what you could do and one idea I had was that one or two of you could try and get jobs at the local stable where they look after all sorts of horses. Another idea was that you could teach P.E in schools, though I will have to teach you all about the modern day sports and the final idea I had was that you could volunteer at the Arthurian museum not far from here".

"Arthurian museum?" questions Arthur

"Well do you remember how I told you that there wasn't much evidence that any of you ever existed and some of the evidence they do have is distorted?" answers Merlin

"Yes"

"I thought it would be a good idea that one of you could go and work there and every so often correct something, so as to let people nowadays to build up a better picture of yours and my lives, what do you think?"

"I think it sounds ok, I think i'd like to do that" answers Arthur.

"I thought you might" said Merlin.

"I think I'd like to work with horses" interjected Elyan.

"Me too" commented Leon.

"Which means that I could teach you to guys about the different sports on the school curriculum, I think you'll like football and rugby, if that sounds cool?" says Merlin as he looks at Percival and Gwaine.

"Sounds good to me" says Gwaine.

"Great let's get to work".
