Hello everybody :D I'm so glad you all like the last chapter so here is my newest one.

"Ok what's this guy want?" Anya asked pacing around my room.
"It's not our problem" I told her. Following her with my eyes it was like watching a tennis match. She started to bite on her nails.

"Can we remember the fact that he got stabbed and is still alive" I reminded her.

"But we're not sure about it though" she corrected me. I rolled my eyes at her.

"Well I don't know about you but I'm going to sleep now" I said feeling very comfortable in some pajamas I had found.
"How can you sleep at a time like this?" she asked me.
"I'm tired" I just plainly said.
"Good night" she said walking out of the room.
"Night night" I told her settling into the bed comfortably.

Anya and I walked into the arena and lucky for us had to sit next to Arthur again. Arthur and I avoided eye contact with each other still and stayed silent for awhile.
"So nice to see you slept in your own bed this time" Arthur said.
"Yep" I just replied. Anya looked at me mentally telling me to say more.
"Sorry about that again" I apologized. There you happy I glared at her.
"Mmmm hmmm" he said. I started to tap my foot just to pass the time but apparently that annoyed him so he decided to step on it. I just glared at him and he smirked at me evilly. I could see Anya give me a look probably saying You two are both five year olds. After that the duel commenced and again I saw the black knight get stabbed and this time I wasn't the only one to notice. Then he killed Sir Pellinore. Before he could challenge another duel Arthur threw his glove down in front of him. I just stared at him wide eyed.

"I Arthur Pendragon challenge you"

"So be it" the knight replied.

"Single combat, noon, tomorrow" Arthur told him. And then the knight just walked away. I saw Uther storm out of the arena probably angry at Arthur.

"Are you crazy?" I asked Arthur getting up from my seat.

"No" he said.
"Do you have a death wish?" I asked.
"No"

"Then why are you doing this?"

"Why do you care? You don't know me" he retorted shooting down any comebacks I had left and then he just walked away. I could feel Anya looking at me probably knowing that I was about to blow at any minute.
"Really why do you care though?" she asked as we were walking through the castle.
"I don't know. I just do" I said.
"Hang on do you like him?" she asked.
"No, I mean he's attractive but no" I said. She just gave me a knowing smile.

"I think you care because you're starting to like him and don't want to see him get hurt" she sort of taunted.
"Well….."
"Oh my god I made you speechless" she smiled.

"I haven't even known him for a week" I said.
"Yeah but he saved you and you practically slept together" she listed off.
"So?" She rolled her eyes at me and started to walk off.
"Where are you going?" I asked.
"To the library. I've been needing a good read" she said.
"But what am I supposed to do?" I asked hating being alone.
"It's a big castle I'm sure you'll find something to do" she said leaving me alone in the hallway. It was quiet being all by myself. Screw it I'm going to my room was all I thought.

I quickly ran to the library as the sun started to go lower. I almost found it hard to believe that it was still open when I got there because the door was unlocked. I opened it and looked into the dark room. I walked in and picked up something and just started reading it at a table by candle light. I could really use a flashlight or any electric lights now I thought as I squinted to look at the words.

"Achoo!" I sneezed violently, smacking my forehead on the dusty book in front of me. I muttered a swear word as I grasped my forehead from where it hit the book.
"Hello?" I heard a voice say.
I saw Merlin stuck his head around a bookcase. I blushed for no apparent reason and sniffed delicately.
"Are you reading?" he asked, bending around to look at the text.
"Yeah, it's, um, a book of fairy tales I think?" I looked up from the alarmingly lifelike illustration of a griffin to find him staring at me, smirking. His eyes were such a deep blue that I found myself looking into them for a bit too long.
"Fairy tales?" he chuckled, "no, I've seen this with my own eyes!"
"Really?" I asked with a mix of incredulity and genuine scholarly interest.
"Oh yeah," he said sinking into the chair next to me, "It's huge, and almost impossible to kill" his eyes lit up with excitement.
"But how does it exist?" I asked, "The wings in this drawing look far too insubstantial to support the weight of such a large creature. And look here, it says the griffin's talons alone weigh as much as a horse, how is that possible?" he stared at me, eyebrows raised, mouth forming a small o.
"What?" I blushed again and looked at my fingers.
"You can read?"
Oh no! Omigosh I blew our cover! No, no, stupid! This is what you get for trying to show off for a cute boy! I freaked out in my mind.
"Well, I mean you are a noble, so I suppose I shouldn't be surprised," he said more to himself than me.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
Merlin suddenly took the book and flipped a few pages until he found what he was looking for.

"How did you two get in here?" this librarian said appearing out of nowhere making him drop the book.
"The door was open?" I said wondering why he didn't know that himself.

"No I locked it" he said. I looked at Merlin for an answer.
"Someone else must have opened it then" he said.

"I think you two just opened it yourself" the librarian stated.
"We were just looking for books" Merlin told him. In a library? No way I thought.

"They're for Gaius (Merlin's uncle) he thinks the black knight is a wraith" Merlin continued.
"A what?" I asked.
"I'll explain that later" he said quickly to me.
"If that's true then Arthur is in a grave danger" the librarian reacted to his comment.
"Which is why I'm here I need to find a weapon that'll kill something that's already dead" Merlin told him.
"And what about you?" the librarian asked looking at me.
"Ummmm same here" I just muttered out and Merlin nodded going along with it.

"Well I have heard of some weapons from the great chronicles" he said.
"Really what'd they say?" Merlin asked.

"Well several fables speak of ancient swords" he continued.
"That can kill the dead?" I asked.

"So the fables speak of anything alive or dead" he answered.
"Can you show us one of these fables?" Merlin asked.
"I think yes" he replied and then he went and got a book down from a shelf and plopped it down in front of us making more dust going in the air causing me to sneeze again.
"Bless you" Merlin smiled at me.
"Thank you" I blushed. The librarian opened the book to a certain page with a picture of a dragon on it.

"Sir Mawhouse looked upon the great sword begotten in the dragons breathe and found it passing good" the librarian read for us. Merlin had him reread the dragons breathe part for some odd reason. He then just got up and left in a hurry.
"Well thanks anyways" I told the librarian quickly going after him. So there's something involving a dragon, Arthur, and a sword this should be interesting I said slowly following after Merlin without him noticing.

I quickly opened the door to what I thought was my room but found Arthur just fighting with the air with his sword. God why can't I remember which room mine is I mentally kicked myself again.
"Merlin what have I told you about knocking" he said not turning around. I just stayed silent and he finally turned around.
"Oh it's you again. I really think I should just get a sign on my door"

"Or we could just switch rooms" I joked.

"Very funny" he said in mock laughter. I started to walk out but soon stopped myself.
"Listen I'm sorry about what I said earlier. It really isn't my place to tell you what you can and cannot do" I said.

"Thank you finally someone who gets it. Everyone thinks I can't do fight against him and they won't let me go through with my own decisions" he admitted.
"Maybe that's because they care about you and don't want to see you get hurt" I said. Oh god I sound like my mom I cringed.
"Do you care about me?" he asked but I couldn't tell if he was joking or not because he was smiling while he said it. I blushed. Wait hang on don't blush you barely know him I thought.
"No not at all" I said sarcastically and that made him laugh. Haha see I found away to slither around your tricky little question.
"Well you keep doing whatever it was you were doing with the air" I said closing the door behind me.
"Castiel" he said before the door shut.
"Yeah" I said sticking my head back in.
"Good night" he said.
"Good night" I said closing the door behind me. I quickly ran into my room and started giggling like a little girl. A couple seconds later Anya ran in looking breathless.
"What happened?" I asked looking at her gasping for air.
"I….Merlin… sword….pshhhhh….Arthur….knight….zombie….lizard…pshhshhshshsh" she mumbled out catching her breath.
"Huh?"I asked looking at her like she was crazy. She grabbed me by the wrist and immediately dragged me out of the room and down towards this dark basement and I had to immediately clutch on to her hand because I hated dark tunnels. She gave me a be quiet sign and lead me out into this huge cave and right on a rock there was a sleeping golden dragon.

"OH MY G-" Anya covered my mouth with her hand. We quickly started to walk back but I heard a deep voice say.
"Back again I see, young Anya and this time you brought Castiel, lovely" We turned around slowly.
"Sorry are you talking to us?" Anya asked the dragon that was awake now.
"Well you are the only two people here" the dragon replied.
"Oh my god a giant flying lizard is talking to me" I mumbled.
"Yes and a tiny human girl is talking to me" the dragon said to me.
"Excuse me?" I said putting my hands on my hips.
"Hang on how do you know our names?" Anya asked.
"You are a part of a great legend that will soon begin" he told us.
"Haha that's very funny but really how do you know us?" I said to it still not believing that I was talking to a dragon. It smiled at us.

"You don't mean the Camelot stories do you?" Anya asked.

"There is no stories for now there's only living here in the present" he said all mystically.

"Ok puff the magic dragon tell me what this great legend we are a part of is?" I asked crossing my arms.

"Two girls will be rescued from the lake of Avalon one destined to be married to the future king of Camelot and the other to his faithful sorcerer" it told me.

"What about us going home?" I asked thinking about my parents, my little sister, college, my future job in film all of it was waiting for me back home in the future.
"This is your home" he said.
"I don't think so" Anya said.
"You will come to call it home at some point" he told us as we slowly walked away. Anya and I just shook our heads at him.
"You will come to see me again" was the last thing we heard him say.

"That was insane" I said as we walked back to our rooms.

"That was real right?" Anya asked me looking dazed. I just shook my head. You'll soon call this home. Yeah in your dreams Mushu I thought and then I just plopped on the bed and thought about what he had said to us. Going from what the dragon had said it'd hadn't taken me long to figure out that I was most likely the one to marry Arthur because Anya and Merlin obviously had something going on.

"Ughhhhhhhhh" I just moaned into the pillow from frustration. And then I just fell asleep. When I woke up I heard this loud banging noise. I put my ear to a wall in my room and heard Arthur's voice.
"ARTHUR?" I asked trying to talk through the wall.
"CASTIEL YOU NEED TO GET MY DOORS OPEN NOW" he demanded. I looked outside my window and saw Uther was fighting the black knight. I quickly ran out of my room and tried to open it but it was locked. I kicked it and it still wouldn't work I even took a running shoulder budge to it which hurt my shoulder and probably bruised it.
"Don't try shouldering it open bad idea" I said through the door. God I could really use Alohomora right now I thought.

"God your useless" he said.

"Well I'm sorry I need a key genius" I snapped at him.
"What's going on?" I asked.
"He did it" Arthur said relieved.
"Well that's good" I told him.
"No it's not he locked me in my room"

"Remember what I said about people caring?" Arthur stayed silent.
"Well your father cares about you although locking your children in rooms isn't the best way to show it. But that means he really cares about your safety and he should because he's your father" I told him. I thought I heard Arthur mumble something like "no he doesn't" I heard Anya's footsteps running up behind me.
"Oh you're up" she said looking surprised.
"Yeah why didn't you wake me?" I asked.
"You just looked so peaceful sleeping and you needed it because frankly no one wants to deal with a cranky you" she told me.
"Do you have a key?" I heard Arthur ask. Anya looked at the door surprised.
"Uther locked him in" I explained. Anya explained to us what had happened and how Uther had killed the black knight. Later some guards came along and let Arthur out. I could tell he looked really angry.
"I'm sorry for not being able to open the door" I apologized as he walked to where I'm sure his father would be.
"You say sorry way too often" he told me giving me a hint of a smile before walking off looking angry again.

"You know as weird and random as this sounds. I think I could stay here for awhile" Anya told me.
"Me too" I said looking at Arthur walk off.
"Oh I know why you want to stay" Anya said nudging me.
"Shut up" I told her before we started giggling.

So that's the end of my chapter. I hope you all liked it.
