Morganna smiled as she walked through the forests of the outskirts of Camelot. She had missed the ancient kingdom since her self imposed exile. It had been months since she was last there. The spring sunshine made the kingdom look beautiful. She stood staring at the Castle through the trees as the sunshine glinted off the turrents.

"I'll be back soon" She smiled as she pulled her cloak around her and disappeared into the forest. Morguse was waiting, the time to return to her rightful place was almost upon them.

Merlin did not like the idea that Morganna was back to cause problems. He just knew she was there somewhere watching them. He had suspected it for a while and now with Sir Leon's findings he was more worried than ever. He sat on the steps of the Castle next to Arthur as they watched the children, artisans and townspeople of Camelot going about their normal business. For a moment Merlin wondered if any of them had any idea what went on around them.

"So she's back then"

"Yes Merlin" Arthur sighed.

"She wants something" Merlin looked at his friend. "You are going to have to be careful, you know. It was you she wanted to kill"

"Yeah I know, thanks for reminding me" Arthur still couldn't quite believe the girl he had always considered to be his sister had hated him so much she wanted to kill him. It felt wrong, as if the universe had been knocked off balance. He knew Morganna, there was no way he could continue blaming Morguse for his sister's behavious, she knew exactly what she was doing.

"And Gwen. She wanted her out of the way too"

"Nothing is going to happen to Gwen" Arthur spoke through clenched teeth "I won't let it" Arthur shot Merlin a look, effectively ending the conversation as Merlin nodded.

"Just, look Arthur I know you think of Morganna as your sister, but she isn't. And she wont let any of her past feelings interfere with her goals. She wants Camelot" He ran a hand through his dark hair "She is not stupid but she has fallen for everything that stupid sister of hers has said. She was prepared to kill me and Gwen. It wasn't that long ago, I can't see how that has changed"

"You know she wants Camelot?" Arthur watched as Merlin nodded.

"Yes"

"You can't always get what you want" Arthur stood and ran down the steps as Gwen walked towards them. Moira was holding Gwaine's hand as they approached them.

"Yeah, thats true" Merlin sighed "It won't stop her trying though" He waved at Gwen as Moira ran towards him.

"Merlin! Merlin!"

"Hello" Merlin smiled at the young girl.

"I helped. I did. I helped Gaius"

"Good girl" Merlin smiled. He looked over to where Gwen was talking to Arthur and Gwaine. She kept throwing little glances towards where Moira stood, just keeping an eye on her young charge. She is definately still trying to look after everyone. Seems our little Moira has made her maternal instincts even stronger. Merlin sighed as he realised the child was still talking to him. He returned his attention to Moira as Gwaine wandered off in the direction of the Castle.

"Are they going to get married? I think they should be married" Moira folded her arms as Merlin laughed.

"Yeah I hope so"

"Anyway I helped. I helped Gaius, just like Freya told me to" Merlin froze as she spoke.

"Moira" Merlin forced his heart rate to settle. "You said Freya told you to help"

"Yes, Freya. The lady in the water. You know Freya!" Moira rolled her eyes "She said I had to be a big girl and help Gauis because we all have to be ready. I don't know why but even me! I have to be ready"

"What else did she say?" Merlin didn't want to scare her. It was clear she had been talking to a ghost. There was no way Freya was still alive. He had seen her die. He had watched as she was laid to rest in the lake.

"Not much. I'm to help Gauis look after you" She twirled her hair around her finger "She said it is coming and we all have to be ready"

"Then don't look so worried" Merlin smiled. "Of course we'll be ready"

He only hoped he was right.

Gaius sat at the large table in the kitchen area of his chambers as he stared in to the dying embers of the fire. The hearth was still warm where the fire was dying back. He sighed heavily, the suspicion that his young friend was once again walking head first into trouble bothered him. He knew Merlin and the others had a knack of finding trouble. They really did not need to go in search of it. He watched the dying embers as he wondered about little Moira and why Freya had decided to speak to her. It was clear the young girl was talking to ghosts. He knew the fact the child could converse with spirits was enough to frighten Uther into unspeakable acts. He decided there and then he would not speak of it to anyone just in case it got back to the King.

"Gaius!" Merlin almost ran in to the room.

"Slow down boy! Running everywhere at such a pace is not good for the constitution surely" He grumbled as Merlin almost threw himself into the chair opposite him.

"Moira, little Moira. She saw, she said. I mean it isn't possible"

"Merlin calm down. It is possible. And yes it did happen. It seems our little helper has magick, the same as you. The same as Morganna. It seems she is a Seer, I dont know how or why she has the gift but she does"

Merlin nodded as he thought about what Moira had told him. He was instantly worried about the little girl. All supernatural powers were strictly forbidden in Camelot, he had been almost caught many times. He didn't want Moira to live in fear.

"The child is in danger" Gaius contined "Should Uther ever discover her powers, if Morganna and Morguse find out I fear for the girl"

"She's just six years old"

"As were you when your powers started. As was Morganna"

"If something happened to her" Merlin shook his head.

"It would kill Gwen and Arthur. Gwen is like a mother to the girl, especially now Anwen has taken up with another man and has a taste for the mead"

"Yes" Merlin closed his eyes. "Times are changing Gaius. But nothing will happen to Moira or Arthur and Gwen. I'll make sure of it"

A/N More soon?
