A/N: I will do something from Arthurs Point Of View during this story don't worry, I'm extremely busy at the moment so it's difficult to get time to update my stories. Remember to comment.

Merlin

The Battle of Camlann

"Gaius what do I do I'm useless without my magic, I won't be able to protect Arthur" Merlin said sounding hopeless. Gaius looked at him and wisely said "All you can do is your best, follow your heart and do the right thing". They sat in silence for a while before Arthurs Voice echoed into the chambers calling Merlin to him.

Merlin got up and exited the chambers racing up to Arthur to see what was wrong, when he got there Arthur was sitting down, he looked up when Merlin entered and said "Took you long enough idiot, go get all the knights of the round table tell them we have a meeting" .

"Arthur be nicer to Merlin" scolded Gwen who was lying in bed, Merlin for his part just glared at Arthur, turned around to walk out the door but not before he said "right away your Royal pratness"

Merlin spent the next half hour hunting down the knights informing them that they had a meeting, finally Merlin himself arrived at the meeting to see that everyone was already seated, Arthur was predictably glaring at Merlin "Merlin what took you so long? Anyway back to the topic at hand. As you all know Morgana has got an army of Saxons and is going to march on Camelot, We will go and meet them in Camlann" he continued on, no one noticing Merlin stiffen at the mention of Camlann apart from Gwen "we will be outnumbered allot of people will die. I will not order you to ride out to battle with me, if you wish to walk away now you may do so without any dishonour".

Everyone was quiet as they waited for someone else to speak up finally Leon stood up "Sire, I have fought many battles by your side if this is to be my last one, then so be it." Leon pulled his sword out and threw it on the centre of the round table it landed with a clatter.

Next Gwaine stood up "Princess, I spent many years of my life running, I finally found a place that I'm willing to call a home and I'm willing to fight and die for it if I have to, besides I like the odds it sounds like fun." Gwaine said flashing a cheeky wink in Arthur's direction even as he drew his sword and chucked on the centre of the table along with Leon's sword.

Elyan stood up "You're my brother and my king, my sword is your sword and shall always be by your side. You gave me a place to stay when I had nowhere to go. You rescued me when you never knew who I was. I would gladly die for you" He pulled his sword out and threw it in the centre of the table.

Percival stood up "Your enemies are my enemies; you are my king and my friend. My sword is yours, Sire" Percival pulled out his sword and put it in the pile.

Lancelot stood up and said " You taught me what being a knight is about Honour Loyalty and being Just, When I was younger all I ever wanted was to be a knight of Camelot you allowed me to fulfil that dream. I will fight for Camelot, Fight for my Friends and my King". Lancelot then threw the last sword into the pile it landed with a clatter symbolising the loyalty of the knights.

Everything was quiet for a minute, Until Merlin to rose "I never truly belonged anywhere, I never had many friends in Ealdor i was called the 'bastard child' and I was beat up for it. My mother was the only one I ever had. That changed when I moved here, I met friends which were something I never had, and I fought a dragon bandits and magic beside them. I may not be good with a sword and I may only be a servant, but I will fight for my family, until the day I die".

Everyone sat in stunned silence as they gazed at Merlin with awe. Finally Arthur stood up and said "Thank you, all of you" he gaze flicked between all the knights and Merlin "Your loyalty will not be forgotten am glad to have you by my side".

Everyone filed out to get ready for the battle ahead of them, Gwen was still was watching Merlin suspiciously she could till that something was upsetting him and she was determined to find out what.

Merlin went into his room and looked under his bed to get his armour and sword that he seldom used. He went to the armoury to get it ready for the battle tomorrow; while he was polishing he couldn't help but feel apprehensive about the battle tomorrow knowing the odds of him surviving it tomorrow where slim without his magic.

Merlin jumped when he heard the door open and looked up to see Lancelot staring curiously at him. Lancelot frowned and said "That's not Arthur's sword and armour. Whose is it?" Merlin continued polishing knowing where this conversation was going to lead, after about 5 minutes of silence and polishing Merlin finally replied "No it's not Arthurs... Its mine" Lancelot glanced sharply at Merlin and asked "I didn't even know you had armour, and that sword looks incredibly expensive how where you able to afford that?"

Lancelot was right, the sword was very expensive it had a ruby in the handle of it and the blade looked like it could cut through metal "Oh I would never be able to afford this, Gwen and Elyan made it for me on my birthday they insisted I have a way to protect myself, unfortunately I haven't had much of a chance to use it."

Lancelot was still staring curiously at Merlin "Well, we both know you don't need a sword to protect yourself with and you've never worn armour, so why are you now?" Lancelot said with a large amount of suspicion in his voice.

Merlin gave a nervous chuckle as he made a weak attempt to lie "We have a battle tomorrow I need a way to protect myself when I'm not paying attention, and the armour is so arrows and swords don't run me through"

Lancelot stared sternly down at Merlin as he said stubbornly "Tell. Me. Why. You're Wearing Armour. Now."

Merlin gulped nervously thinking about what Lancelot's reaction to this was going to be like "Ilostmymagic" rushed Merlin, Lancelot who was still staring at Merlin said worriedly "Sorry what did you say?"

"I said I lost my magic" Merlin said nervously

What? How did you lose it?" exclaimed Lancelot.

After what felt like hours for Merlin he finally finished explaining why and how he lost his magic. Lancelot immediately asked Merlin how he was going to get it back to which Merlin replied "I honestly have no idea, I never even knew it was possible to take someone's magic until now.

Lancelot just stared at Merlin digesting the information that he wouldn't have Merlin's protection tomorrow, without it he felt naked, as if he was going into battle without any armour. "Merlin" Lancelot began "Are you planning to fight in the battle tomorrow?

Merlin looked at Lancelot in the eye and replied with "Yes, Yes I am going to fight tomorrow so don't try to stop me".

A/N: I put Lancelot and Elyan in this story simply because I wanted all the round table in it. There might be either 3 or 4 parts to this story i don't know it depends on the amount I plan to do. Do you like the story? Do you have any comments on how I could improve it? Or do you have a idea for a different story in entirely? Please let me know and I will do it. Thank you for reading!
