4. The Cup of Life

I just wrote this today! It's a little short, but I'm very happy with it ^.^

Title: The Cup of Life

Prompt: 'The Cup of Life': Come up with an idea as to what might have happened to the Cup of Life following it's disappearance at the end of Series 2. You can simply locate it and explain how it got there, or you can have a particular character (origonal or canon or ever historical) making use of it at some future time.

Summary: "I can't believe it. After all this time . . ." He began to laugh.

" . . . and was used during an ancient pagan ritual that was said to give life to the dead. Such customs were eradicated during the rule of ancient King and his well know and universally fantasized son, King Arthur. Now, moving on in the medieval exhibit . . ."

The guide and her group moved on, but the thin man in a dark hoodie did not. He stood staring at the goblet in glass.

"I can't believe it. After all this time . . ."

He began to laugh, a beautiful, musical sound that echoed in the empty room—a rare noise heard by none. There was such relief on the man's face, such peace in his features—a peace that was mirrored by the pure joy shining in his sparkling eyes. Eyes that turned from blue to gold.

Arthur, I'm coming.

There was a shattering of glass and the man was gone.
