"The time has drawn nigh, yet again, the time for our game to begin" Gwen whispered spookily. "The last dare was created by Merlin and served by Arthur. Now it falls to Arthur to fabricate a truth or dare for Morgana, consisting of anything his mind can conceive."
"Dare" said Morgana, before Arthur even had the chance to ask.
"Alright Morgana. I know you don't agree with Uther's decision to execute that man who's suspected of sorcery tomorrow, am I correct?"
Morgana nodded, lips slightly parted, wondering what all this had to do with her dare. "Of course I don't, he has a wife and children!"
"Then, Morgana, I dare you to openly challenge him tomorrow on his decision. You must get him to threaten to punish you. Then you have to say something along the lines of, 'So you're going to throw me in the stocks just for trying to protect an innocent man and his family?'"
"I planned on challenging him anyway, Arthur. "
"I thought so, but the dare consists of challenging him and getting yourself thrown into the stocks"
"You mean I have to be thrown into the stocks? Are you serious Arthur?"
"That's your dare, Morgana, like it or not. Do you accept?"
"Well of course I do, Arthur!"
"Good. I'll be the first to throw a rotten tomato at your pretty little face!"
"I feel so honored" she said dryly.
"Oh, and Morgana, you must wear your hair at least mostly down."
"You're just brutal. Do you have any idea how long it will take to get that stuff out?"
"Not my problem"
"My lord, he has a family and children who rely on him for income!" Morgana cried angrily
"Morgana, as king I must enforce the laws of Camelot. What becomes of his family is not my concern" Uther explained irritably.
"Then you Uther, you are an awful king! You will leave his children fatherless because you suspect him of magic!"
"Morgana, hold your tongue!"
"And watch as you leave another girl fatherless? Tell me, do you plan on making her your ward like you did me?"
"Morgana!" he bellowed. "If you do not sit down and remain silent I will-"
"Have me thrown in the stocks?" she interrupted, finishing his sentence and putting an idea into his mind. A new idea that he rather liked.
"Yes Morgana! Now would you please take a seat?"
"And watch you kill an innocent man and take away a child's hero?"
"Morgana" Uther warned
"No."
"Then I will have you put in the stocks."
"You know uther, I don't think you would. I think this is just another empty threat." she said mockingly
"Guards, arrest the Lady Morgana and place her in the stocks." said Uther angrily. Morgana fought the guards, but she was no match for them and soon she was being led away.
"Father, may I throw the first fruit at her?" asked Arthur once she was gone.
"Why would you want to do that, Arthur?" asked Uther
"Well, I'm concerned that the people will be afraid to throw rotten fruit at the kings ward, the first lady of Camelot. I think, that if I took the first shot and hit her square in the face with a tomato, they would be more likely to pelt her."
"Of course, Arthur, what a splendid idea. go on now, you don't want to make her wait"
"Let me go!" shrieked Morgana as the guards dragged her out to the townsquare. "Let me go!" they clamped the wood down over her neck and wrists. 'How embarrassing' she thought. her backside was sticking out in a very unladylike fashion and she realised she was blushing. 'lovely' she thought as arthur approached the crowd, tossing a rotten tomato up and down nonchalantly in his hand.
"People of Camelot!" he shouted "Come, bring your rotten fruits and pelt the lady Morgana with me! Watch as I take the first shot!" he shot her a look that said 'I've waited all my life for this day'
Then, without warning, he threw the tomato right at her. she tried to dodge it, keeping her eye on it, but the stocks held her in place. When she realized this, it was too late. The tomato had hits its target head on.
"Ahh!" she cried. the tomato juice had gotten in her eye. now she was being pelted. This was going to be one loong day. Her hair had food in it everywhere and her feet, back, neck, and arms were getting sore already. She would definitely have to get Arthur back for this one.
"Ow!" sh cried. was that a potato? seriously Arthur?
please read and review! I NEED ideas for dares! But please, no slash/femslash please!
Oh, also, I;ve gotten a few reviews and messages suggesting a dare for Arthur or Morgana
to get undressed or run naked through camelot or through the castle. Does anyone else
think that would be a good idea? I'm trying to get an idea of how many people would
actually like that in the story as a dare.
