Hello everyone. Here's the second chapter of Intertwining Swords. I'm sure in the last chapter I mentioned I'll be changing the story, so it fits with what I want to do with it. Most of the dialogue from this chapter is the same as the first chapter two, but I changed a few things. Warning: I have inserted my Headcannon in regards to Sonic being the King of Camelot and regarding Iblis.

EDIT 24/04/19: Hello everyone, I am currently going through and editing this story and adding in things here and there and expanding on some ideas. I know its been forever since I last updated but I have been very busy recently. I started my Bachelor of Arts/Master's in Teaching 8 weeks ago and have been unbelievably busy. Mid-session break from May 26th - June 11 (exams) and then ends on June 21. During the break, I'll likely work on my stories.

Time: 11:11 am – 4:24 pm

"Welcome to Camelot," Sonic replied, that confident, self-assured smile remained on his face as he motions around them as he walked towards the medieval castle but stopped when he realised they weren't following him. Sonic seemed older somehow; something must have happened when he disappeared for that day. Shadow scanned the area out of habit not seeing Sonic's knowing smile.

Shadow was a lot like Lancelot, he had come to rely on his judgment over the last 10 years and had often mistaken Shadow for Lancelot though that usually only happened when he was tired or stressed.

"To where?" Knuckles questioned, wondering if he had heard Sonic correctly. There was no way they could be in Camelot; the palace was legendary for its library and the magic protecting the grounds from intruders. No one got past the gate if they intended to harm the King, and if they did, they didn't live very long after they were found by the guards.

Knuckles hadn't thought Camelot was real, there were only mentions of it throughout history, no one knew where it was. Some claimed it existed but was hidden by magic. Those who claimed to have found it could never tell their friends or family where the castle was even though they could describe it perfectly.

"Camelot. Home of the Knights of the Round Table, Excalibur and King Arthur," Sonic answered, turning to face his friends, Shadow could tell Sonic was incredibly proud of the Knights of the Round Table, it made him feel warm for some strange reason. It was odd as Sonic had told them he had only spent a short time in Camelot, this information apparently coming from experience.

Shadow, Knuckles, Tails, Silver, Blaze and Amy stared at the large castle, its spires reaching into the darkened clouds, Shadow knew there was a storm coming. Guards were standing at every visible entrance. The road leading to the castle was surrounded by a lush forest. The wind seemed to curl around Sonic. Knuckles stared at who he guessed were merchants loading and unloading their carts, he assumed there was a village on the other side of the Castle gate.

When they got closer Knuckles could see stalls set up outside the gates selling metal, vegetables, bread, meat leather and other items the merchants might need for their travels.

"You weren't making things up after all," Blaze muttered, looking around her in awe, Sonic seemed pleased with her reaction, he appeared to be tall, his fur was darker, his quills were longer and deadlier and the calculating look in his eyes scared Blaze and Tails, Sonic had never had that look in his eyes before and since when had his quills looked that dangerous.

"How could I make something like this up? I hardly have the time to read because I'm stopping Eggman from taking over the world?" Sonic questioned, gesturing to the dirt road, castle, guards and people. Silver could tell Sonic was proud of Camelot though he couldn't figure out why. Sonic had told them how he had ended up in Camelot and helped the Knight of the Round Table but Silver hadn't really believed him, he could tell Sonic wasn't even trying to convince them what he was telling them was real.

He already knew they wouldn't believe him so he wasn't going to try and make them believe him.

"He has a point," Amy admitted reluctantly, glaring at Sonic, not sure what to think, she still didn't truly believe him. It was well known Sonic didn't read many books because of how busy he was. Shadow opened his mouth to ask a question but was interrupted by a woman wearing a purple dress. Shadow didn't trust her even though he didn't know her, something about her rubbed him the wrong way.

"Sir Sonic? Is that you?" The women questioned, how she managed to hold her skirts out of the mud and hold a staff was a mystery as she ran up to them. She was wearing a purple dress with blue accents matching her lavender eyes. There was something off about this women but Silver had no idea what. Shadow eyed her suspiciously, there was something familiar about this woman like he had seen her somewhere before but he couldn't remember where he just knew she couldn't be trusted and to be cautious with what he said around her.

He looked up when he heard Silver groan and knew he had noticed it too.

"Merlina, good to see you again," Sonic yelled once Merlina reached them, she was taller than Sonic by three or four inches and bowed one she had gotten her breath back, not seeing the startled looks on Shadow, Silver, Tails, Blaze and Amy's faces. Shadow could tell Sonic didn't like Merlina. He knew what Sonic sounded like when he was genuinely happy to see someone and the blur was definitely not happy to see Merlina.

His chaos energy was curled tightly around him, creating a barrier between him and the human preventing her from getting any closer, not that she seemed to notice. Sonic was a good actor as Shadow had found out in the last 10 years and had excellent control over his chaos energy, using it to create a barrier between him and whoever he was talking to, it would stop them from getting any closer even if the person wanted to get closer. He had often used it to stop Amy from touching him.

"Good to see you again too my liege. I was wondering when you would arrive, I had been planning to call you later in the week," Merlina replied, smiling down at Sonic. Silver got the impression the Sorceress wasn't happy to see Sonic even though she acted like she was. Sonic was only just managing to stop himself from laughing when he heard a familiar voice yelling at Merlina about what the rush was about. Caliburn wasn't pleased about being left behind apparently.

"My Liege? Why would you call her that?" Silver questioned as it was clear no one else would. Sonic sighed and muttered something about 'witches not being able to keep their noses out of other peoples business' under his breath. Shadow stared at the floating sword when it finally reached them, it was glaring at Merlina, who of course wasn't paying attention, all of her attention on Sonic.

The look in her eyes sent a cold shiver down Shadow's spine, he knew Silver had picked up on the fact Merlina wasn't happy to see Sonic, it wasn't hard to tell given the amount of annoyance she was giving off. Shadow was surprised Tails, Blaze and Amy hadn't picked up on it though then again they weren't as sensitive to chaos energy as Shadow and Silver.

Knuckles likely hadn't noticed because he hadn't gotten over his shock yet.

"You could have taken me with you. Didn't Sonic tell you he was King?" Caliburn questioned, somehow managing to look disapproving even though he was a sword, Merlina looked sheepish, Sonic just grinned. Shadow, Silver, Knuckles, Blaze, Tails and Amy stared at him trying to process the fact the floating sword was talking and that Sonic was king.

Caliburn clearly didn't like Merlina, if the scathing look he was the giving the human Witch was anything to go by. Knuckles dimly wondered what Merlina could have done to piss off Camelot's sacred sword. He knew enough about Arthurian law to know Caliburn was a sacred sword, what kind he wasn't sure.

Caliburn clearly didn't like Merlina, if the scathing look he was giving the Sorceress was anything indication. Knuckles dimly wondered what Merlina could have to piss of Camelot's sacred sword. He knew enough about Arthurian law to know Caliburn was a sacred sword, what kind he wasn't quite sure as there were a few, it was evident he was sentient and didn't very much like Merlina.

"King? How are you talking, if you don't mind me asking?" Knuckles questioned, it was more used to Sonic's habit of getting himself into strange and impossible situations after being friends with him for so long. Sonic smiled, it was just like Knuckles to be curious but respectful. Almost everyone who met Caliburn and found out he could talk promptly forgot their manners.

Sonic knew appreciated when someone did remember their manners even if they had just found out he was able to talk. Sonic had to sit through more than one of Caliburn's rants about disrespectful people and how they were lucky he didn't curse them. Sonic hadn't even known Caliburn could curse people. It did, however, make sense, during the ten years he had stayed in Camelot there were quite a few people he wanted to curse.

It was often times a near thing usually due to Lancelot promising to do something about them which satisfied Caliburn enough for him not to curse the unfortunate person who had annoyed or angered him, most knew better than to be disrespectful around Camelot's sacred sword but there were some who didn't have any common sense and didn't realise that Caliburn was Excalibur.

"I was getting to that part before Merlina arrived. This is Caliburn, he's a sacred sword that just so happens to be able to talk. He's my partner and weapon as King," Sonic clarified, he knew people thought he was strange for considering Caliburn his partner and not just his weapon. Caliburn was sentient, of course, he was going to consider the sword his partner. His friends didn't need to know Caliburn was Camelot sacred sword.

For now, they could think Excalibur and Caliburn were two different swords. It would be better that way.

"How can you be King? I thought Excalibur was King Arthur's sword?" Tails inquired, staring at Sonic, he had known there was something Sonic hadn't told about, he had changed after he had come back after being gone for a day, it had taken Tails a while to notice. Sonic sighed, wondering if his friends had always been this oblivious. He would have thought they would have guessed he was the Kin by now, he hadn't exactly kept it a secret.

"How could you be king? I thought Excalibur was King Arthur's sword?" Tails inquired, staring at Sonic, he had known there something Sonic hadn't told them, he had changed after he had come back after being gone for an entire day and missing his 'date' with Amy. It had taken Tails a while to notice the difference. Sonic sighed, wondering if his friends had always been this oblivious. He would have thought they would have figured out he was King was by now, he hadn't exactly kept it secret.

Maybe it was the shock. After he had returned to the future he had found it incredibly hard to stop habits he had developed over 10 years in a single day. He still couldn't get is head around the fact he had been in Camelot for 10 years and yet it had only been one day in the future. He had his suspicions as to why that seemed to be the case. He had often wondered what was happening in the future while he had been. It had been a shock to find he had only been gone for a day and missed his 'date' with Amy.

"Because Caliburn is the King second sword," Merlina stared, startled, she had meant to tell them Caliburn was Excalibur but found she couldn't. Sonic shifted a little when Amy glared at him. Shadow and Silver stared at him as they finally put the pieces together and see what had been right in front of them for 10 years. There were times when he acted strangely and they figured those were the times he fell back into his 'role' as King Arthur, it most often happened when he was Shadow.

It was sometimes difficult to remember Shadow was Lancelot even though they were very alike. Shadow hadn't once called him out on it and played long, with ease, Sonic still didn't know how he did. Shadow had noticed Sonic would often panic if 'Lancelot' wasn't' around though that only happened when he was tired or injured so he played along, a panicked Sonic was dangerous.

"Why didn't you tell us?" Amy shrieked, Shadow and Silver cringed, their ears pressed tightly to their quills, inching away from her. Silver unconsciously moved closer to Shadow knowing he was safe as long as the older hedgehog was around. Shadow glared at Amy, he could feel Silver's scared mental presence pushing against the edge of his mind, he likely didn't even realise he was doing it.

"I did but you didn't believe me. If you had actually listened to what I was telling you than you would have picked on it but no, you had to make me look like an idiot and a liar in front of my friends," Sonic snapped, Shadow had no problem, at the moment, seeing Sonic as the King of Camelot. Silver paled slightly remembering Sonic telling them about his trip to Camelot.

He hadn't even tried to convince them because he knew they weren't going to believe him regardless he had then enough evidence and could tell them exactly where Camelot was. The detailed description he had given of Camelot wasn't something that could be faked. It was too detailed. That should have been their first clue that Sonic had spent more time here than he had let them believe. He had 'just finished' helping the Knights of the Round Table defeat the Black Knight and a troublesome Sorceress.

Silver guessed the 'Troublesome Sorceress' was Merlina.

"I thought your Knights were inside the castle," Caliburn whispered, floating closer to Sonic as he stared at Shadow, Knuckles and Blaze. Sonic sighed and gently pulled Caliburn from the air. Things could end badly if they weren't careful. There was a high possibility something could happen and it would ruin his Knight's reputation. Particularly if someone found out Lancelot was injured.

"They are. These are the friends I was telling you about; Shadow, Silver, Knuckles, Blaze, Amy and Tails," Sonic introduced pointing to his friends. Caliburn knew Merlina wasn't happy about Sonic or his friends being here. There was a high possibility Merlina had everything to with Lancelot, Gawain and Percival being attacked and Lancelot waking up as he should have been awake by now.

"Is that why you sometimes called Lancelot; Shadow?" Caliburn questioned, his voice soft as he stared up at Sonic with an understanding look on his face, Shadow didn't understand and knew he was missing something. Over the last ten years, Sonic would call him 'Lancelot' usually in high tension situations. It almost always happened when they were trying to stop Eggman.

Sonic was stressed or Knuckles, Silver and Blaze were with them, after the first few times of Sonic being confused, panicked or even scared when he realised 'Lancelot' wasn't there Shadow had started to act like he was Lancelot. It seemed to calm Sonic down. It was strange but something he had excepted as fact over the last 10 years, he had gone to the effort to learn a little about the knight in question.

"Yes, Lance was completely fine with it after I explained why it was happening," Sonic replied - after he had defeated the Black Knight he had stayed in Camelot of ten years and got to know the Knights very well. He accidentally called Lancelot 'Shadow' when he was tired or had just woken up, before remembering where he was an apologizing. Lancelot was quite understanding when he realised what was happening.

"If you're here then you already know what's happened?" Merlina questioned and Sonic nodded, Merina sighed both relieved and annoyed, she didn't want to explain things to him. Sonic never understood her when she did try and explain things - saying she was making it too complicated. Merlina didn't understand how Sonic knew what had happened or how he was even her as she hadn't called him or his ...friends were here.

Sonic being here complicated things further and made completing her plan with Sonic's interference impossible, that hedgehog would do whatever he could to stop her and her mother.

"Indeed I do. Lancelot, Percival and Gawain were attacked. Shadow, Blaze and Silver dreamed about it," Sonic explained before Caliburn could ask how he knew what happened to his Knights. Shadow noticed Merlina looked alarmed, likely hoping Sonic wouldn't know what had happened to three of his Knights in any great deal. It meant she couldn't feed him her version of events ... maybe she still could.

"I see. Let's get inside before they turn up again," Caliburn stated, closing his eyes. He looked tired and worn out or as worn out as a sword could look. Sonic couldn't blame him, he knew Caliburn cared about the Knights. He assumed Caliburn was talking about the things that attacked his Knights. He wanted to ask where the battle had taken but knew he wouldn't get an answer from Merlina. He wanted to ask Caliburn or one of his Knights when Merlina wasn't around.

"Of cause, but before that; Lancelot is the Captain of the Guard, my advisor and children tend to look up to him. Gawain is the language master and does have admirers but just ignore them. Percival often gets looked at but is usually wearing armour when she's outside the castle, they shouldn't bother you too much," Sonic stated hoping it would be enough information. Shadow, Knuckles and Blaze nodded understanding what Sonic was trying to tell him.

They had to pretend they were Lancelot, Gawain and Percival until they were inside the castle. Any was about to say something but was stopped when the massive gates opened. The people in the small village turned to wave or bow at Sonic, a few of the children ran up to him and gave him small trinkets. Sonic just smiled and thanked, not at all bothered by the way people were treating him.

Silver was surprised at the attention Shadow, Knuckles and Blaze were getting. Shadow was walking a little behind them, his arms crossed as he listened to the children who had come up to him and started asking questions. He answered then the best he could. They weren't doing any harm. Knuckles was surrounded by women flirting with him, he tried to ignore them the best he could, they reminded him of Rogue a great deal.

He would have told them to leave him alone but he didn't know if that was something Gawain would do. He didn't want to ruin the Knights reputation. Blaze was being pestered by a group of men, she had asked them to leave her alone but they wouldn't take no for an answer. Silver smiled a little and walked over to Blaze to help her out, the men stopped pestering her as they saw Silver.

Blaze found it a little strange how the men reacted when Silver come over. They had relaxed when they saw he wasn't angry with them. Silver gasped when they walked through the big oak doors. The interior of the castle of stone wall and floors covered with red carpet and embroidered tapestries. There were simple chandeliers hanging from the vaulted ceiling flickering shadow on the stone walls even though it wasn't dark.

Silver could feel something tickling the edge of his mind but didn't know what it was. Merlina lead Sonic and his friends through the winding hallways and up to a curved staircase, the cold was covered with red carpet. Shadow noticed this part was different than the entrance. It was simpler and homey feel to it and wasn't as grand as the rest of the castle from what he could tell. Silver guessed this was the part of the castle the knights lived in.

"How are they?" Sonic questioned the worry evident in his voice. Sonic clearly cared about the Knights of the Round Table quite a bit. Shadow got the feeling Sonic had been here longer than he had let on if Caliburn words earlier were anything to go by and how familiar and comfortable the children had been with him. Sonic hadn't slowed and was more than happy to listen to him which was something Shadow had never seen Sonic do.

Sonic was always moving and could stay still.

"Sir Gawain's arms are injured and plenty sore. He should be awake soon if he isn't already," Merlina answered not turning to look at Sonic if she had she would have seen the worried look on his face. Gawain was incredibly resilient to damage, something bad must have happened for both his arms to be broken. Knuckles got the impression Merlina didn't like the Knights or at the very least had a strained relationship with them based on what she had said so far.

"Percival has been going in and out of consciousness since the attack but seems to be recovering nicely and should be awake within the next few days to a week," Caliburn continued, Sonic could tell, just by the look he was giving the Sorceress, he wasn't happy with her at the moment. After everything Merlina had done the last time he had been here, the already strained relationship she had with the Knights had evidently gotten worse.

"What about Lancelot?" Sonic questioned evidently worried about his Captain of the Guard, Blaze could tell respected Lancelot a great deal and relied on him a great deal that much was evident from the way he walked about his Captain. It had taken Blaze to realise Sonic's fighting style had changed only because she hadn't' seen him fight all that often, it seemed a lot closer to the way Sonic fought but still different enough be noticed by anyone paying any real attention.

There were times when he was fighting he went to do something then stopped as though realising something was missing, she hadn't known why until now and guessed if Lancelot had been sparing with Sonic he would have learnt how to fight with a sword then his fighting style would have changed as a result. It was really only noticeable when Sonic and Shadow were sparing, he would go to do something then stop realising he didn't have a sword anymore.

Some of the respect he had for Lancelot had unconsciously transferred to Shadow as Blaze noticed the way he treated Shadow had changed, besides calling him Lancelot several times over the last few years he didn't tease or annoy Shadow as much as he used to, instead of pestering him as he had before when he was bored. He would leave Shadow alone though not before making sure he was alright.

He listened to Shadow when he had something to say like he knew he could trust Shadow judgement and knew it would be better to go with Shadow's suggestion. Now she knew why Sonic relied on Shadow's judgement because he knew he could trust Shadow to know what he was doing. The relationship Sonic had with Shadow was strange that was for sure. Blaze hadn't known what to think. It wasn't a rivalry but it wasn't friendship either. It was something else.

It seemed to be something along the lines of trusted advisor and friend now that she thought about Sonic being King it made more sense.

"Since the battle with Mullegoness three days ago, he hasn't regained consciousness. His wounds haven't healed at all in that time," Merlina explained, it might have been the way Merlina mentioned Lancelot wounds hadn't healed so casually like it wasn't a big deal that made Shadow feel cold. Sonic paled. Lancelot healed very fast if he hadn't healed at all in the three days since he had gotten hurt then there was something very wrong with his Captain.

"We didn't mind him until the day after the battle," Caliburn added giving Merlina a sideways look. Shadow got the feeling Merlina had something to do with him finding Lancelot a day after the battle. Caliburn seemed genuinely concerned about the Knight's health whereas Merlina only seemed vaguely worried but nowhere near as worried as Sonic was after hearing Lancelot hadn't woken up in the last three days and his wounds hadn't healed.

"Whose Mullegoness?" Knuckles asked, watching Merlina's reaction to him asking her the big evil was, there was something about the way she was treating this whole situation that made Knuckles feel weary and more than a little cold. Merlina seemed to know more about Mullegoness and was feeding Sonic the information that she wanted him to know.

Clearly wanting to control what he knew about the battle.

"We aren't certain. When we found Lancelot he was muttering the name repeatedly. We think Mullegoness is the person who attacked him," Merlina explained, not noticing the looks she was getting from Knuckles and Shadow, it was clear she knew or had at least had some idea who had attacked Lancelot. Caliburn stared at Merlina, she hadn't mentioned anything about know who attacked Lancelot. Caliburn narrowed his eyes, there was something bigger going on here and Merlina didn't want them to know about it.

Caliburn suddenly got a sickening feeling Merlina had something to do with Lancelot wounds not healing as they should have. He really hoped Merlina wasn't the reason behind Lancelot current condition.

"If Gawain is awake than he's likely in Highland Yard. It's a meadow behind the castle where he often goes to train," Sonic explained when he saw the confused looks he getting from his friends. Caliburn nodded. It was a five-minute walk. Highland Yard was where Sonic, Lancelot, Gawain and Galahad practised as it was an open plain and big enough for them to practise the parts of their fighting style that required more room than the courtyard provided.

Shadow, Silver and Knuckles couldn't help but gasp when they arrived at Highland Yard. The meadow was not only beautiful but a wide open space. It was used regularly as there was a large amount of chaos residue, Silver could only recognise Sonic's chaos signature which was strong even though it should have been 10 years old, it felt similar to Sonic's chaos signature. He guessed the other three signatures belonged to Lancelot, Gawain and possibly Galahad but Silver didn't know.

Knuckles stared at the meadow, there was something familiar about it but he could place exactly why. When they walked through the stone gates Knuckles shivered when he felt something brush over him but it disappeared before he could figure out what it was. After walking a little further into the meadow they saw a red and white echidna, his quills held out of his face in what looked like six braids. He was wearing brown boots and red tunic, his right arm was in a sling while the left dangled at his side.

Sonic knew exactly who it was and couldn't help but smile.

"Gawain!" Sonic called, not nearly loud enough to be heard by Gawain but the echidna turned to face them regardless, he seemed dazed and looked shocked when he saw Sonic a smile spread across his face after a few seconds. He looked exactly like Knuckles but older. There was something not quite right about the Knight as he walked over to them, he seemed to stumble like he was compensating for something that wasn't there, it took Knuckles to realise he didn't have his sword with him.

"Son-" Gawain cut himself off when he saw Merlina standing just inside the stone gate with Amy, a vaguely pained look on their faces. The warm smile that had been present on Gawain's face disappeared, only to replaced by a cold hard, look seconds later. Knuckles looked at the ground as a cold chill rain down his spine at that look. Gawain looked like he wanted to murder Merlina, he looked up when he felt Sonic's chaos energy pulse and knew he was alarmed even though he didn't show it.

Sonic didn't react to Gawain's sudden change as he walked up to the Knight and looked him over for any more injuries he could have. Sonic knew Gawain was prone to hiding his less dangerous injuries as a form of self-punishment when one of the other Knights got hurt. It was a horrible habit, one Sonic had tried to get him to stop but had only been so successful in getting the stubborn Knight to realise it wasn't' his fault they got hurt.

"It's good your awake already. You can go now, Merlina. We'll meet in the dining room in four hours for dinner," Sonic started turning to face Merlina, intentionally blocking Merlina's view of Gawain. Merlina sighed and bowed, disappearing back into the castle, leaving Amy standing just inside the stone gate. Once she was out of site Sonic let out a sharp whistle and a show appeared, Sonic asked him to keep an eye on Merlina.

"There's something Merlina isn't saying, she shouldn't have been able to get past the gate. Something must have happened to the barrier," Sonic muttered to Gawain who noded, he seemed less tense now Merlina wasn't around and a lot friendlier but Knuckles still felt cold. It was clear now Merlina was gone that Sonic didn't like her in any way whatsoever.

"Good to know it worked. Lance wasn't sure Galahad would be able to get the message through," Gawain stated looking down at his lap as he sat on a low stone wall, he looked tired and warn, Sonic looked alarmed but smiled anyway. Knuckles couldn't help but wonder how this Galahad person had managed to get the message to them. Gawain had relaxed, and Caliburn wasn't so tense anymore.

It was clear Merlina had done something to lose not only Sonic's trust but Gawain and Caliburn's. Shadow got the impression it was something big even though he didn't know Gawain that well, but if he wasn't anything like Knuckles then it took a lot to gain his trust, once it was earned it was hard to break, you had to do something unforgivable to make Knuckles distrust and hate you.

"Just before we were attacked, he told Galahad to send the message. Galahad is much like Silver in the way his powers work. Yes, I know who you are. Sonic told us about you ... is something the matter Ms Rose?" Gawain asked looking at Amy when she gasped a little, the vaguely pained look on her face getting worse. Knuckles got the feeling Gawain knew exactly what was wrong with Amy and his concern wasn't at all genuine.

"Iblis likely helped him. Iblis is the physical embodiment of Time; you can't destroy him merely put him back to sleep. He exists in every universe and a single point in time, someone must have woken early," Sonic explained quickly knowing it would take a while for Silver to accept what had happened was a result of someone waking Iblis up, Amy went to reply but stopped when she felt something pushed at her again. She didn't feel welcome.

"Did Mullegoness get inside the castle walls?"

There done. Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to read this story so far. My Sonic does understand, but he doesn't have the time because he's saving the world and something always come up. Like I mentioned in the first chapter. I may change a few things within the chapter as I write more chapter, that way the story flows, and you might even pick up on what I'm trying to do.

If so, then please review to tell or PM me and tell me. I would love to know what you think will happen. I might even add your idea. My feelings are the Knights and Sonic don't particularly trust Merlina after what she tried to and she knows that and tries her best to make it up to them, but sometimes she slips. Merlina's behaviour will be explained in a later chapter. How do you think Merlina knew the name of Lancelot's attacker even though she said she had no idea who he was.

Comment and tell me what you think. Any input is welcome. I hope you enjoy this chapter; the next one should be up within the next day or two.
