The horse soon skidded to a stop causing Rani once again to fall off landing on her back, she gave a small wince of pain before getting up and running towards where Merlin was, she looked to the pale man giving a small sigh as he seemed to be so much worse then before, her eyes were filled with sympathy, hope and sadness. Rani walked over to Gaius and handed him the little bag full of the herbs and stuff needed to help Merlin, he got out a pot from the shelf and put the herbs inside crushing them a little bit then adding some liquid, Gaius held the pot and closed his eyes, all Rani could do was watch as the contents began to bubble up and froth, Gaius walked over to Merlin and knelt down, Rani helped by opening Merlin's mouth and the liquid got poured inside, Rani and Gaius took a step back watching as Merlin began to cough and splutter but it seemed to have worked as his colour slowly came back and his eyes opened, Rani squealed with delight before running over to Merlin and hugging him tightly
'Merlin! You're alright!
Rani called as she placed a small kiss on his forehead, then her face went serious as she had to tell him about Arthur and the fact he was in a lot of danger
'Merlin I have to tell you something bad… it's Arthur he got put asleep by Nariko, she used a spell and I can't take her on by myself'
Rani explained as she kept her arms wrapped around him but soon stood up and felt a little awkward she should have stopped it but she couldn't. Rani watched as Merlin's eyes widened and he was quick to stand up
'Show me where'
Was all Merlin said causing Rani to give a quick nod of her head, she grabbed Merlin's hand before running out with him, both of them getting on Rani's horse since it would waste too much time getting Merlin's, Rani controlled her horse this time and headed to where Arthur had fallen, Rani stopped the horse a few feet away, the two of them got off the horse before trekking the rest of the way being careful that they didn't make any noise, they looked through the cave to see the Prince lying on the floor, Merlin looked towards Rani thinking of a plan
'I have a plan.. I will distract Nariko while you get the soul and Arthur'
Merlin whispered, Rani nodded her head and watched as Merlin walked from their hiding place and into the cave, his eyes turning the golden colour as rocks fell down hitting Nariko and making her fall to the floor but this only made her angry, Rani ran towards Arthur grabbing him and dragging him out the cave, grabbing the jar with the soul in and dragging Arthur towards the horse, back at the Castle Gaius had heard everything and had rushed off to warn the King immediately, what would the King say? What would his reaction be?
