Hey all, sorry for the wait. Here's the next chapter, enjoy.

It was cold and foggy. He couldn't see much. He turned round and around desperately trying to find someone. No one was there. The cold was surprisingly getting to him. He ran forward, his speed normal for once in so long. He needed to tell someone something, but he didn't know what...

He heard a noise... A snap of a twig. He spun round rapidly. Someone was out there... No something was out there. Panic crawled in the boys mind. He pushed it down. He had nothing to be scared of. He walked forward.

"Hello..." His voice echoed in the dark.

"Emrys... Emrys... Emrys..." Something was calling him.

He walked forward, forgetting the dangers and the fact he had to be somewhere. Somewhere... Where was that somewhere? Who did he need to see? What did he need to tell? He shook his head and walked forward. More twigs snapped all around him, his head snapping towards the sounds. Silence again. He gulped and walked forward. Something was trying to scare him off, but from what? What could be worse than what he's already been through? What! Anger boiled inside him. Rage escaped into his eyes. His eyes turned red. He walked forward with more confidence. He owned the world, but only watched it. He needed to wake up and get a life... He still hadn't made his mind up on that and he didn't want to. He had better things to worry about. He walked forward, a bad feeling swirled inside him. He ignored it, even when it nearly made him sick.

"Emrys... Emrys... Emrys..." The voice called. It was leading him further away from the place he was going in the first place. He walked forward more, pushing branches away from his face. His sleeve got caught on one. He tugged at it and tugged again. He then gave in a used his super strength to get it off. It was like the trees were trying to stop him from going towards the voice. Like they were warning him. He carried on going towards the voice. He soon came to a cave. It was too dark to see, even for his eyesight. He took a step forward. Something inside the cave was calling him... He put two and two together quickly. No one was there. These woods were deserted.

The dark was calling him.

He never liked silence. It strained the truth.

He took two steps back, making it clear that he was leaving. The vice had other planes. It called to him again.

"Emrys... Emrys... EMRYS!" It screamed at the end. Wind blasted from the cave into his face. Then a bright light came from the cave and blasted out...

Merlin woke up with a start. He looked around. He was in his room.

"Shh Merlin, It was just a bad dream." He turned to the side. It was Gwen. He was back in Camelot, in his room and had just woken up from a bad dream. It was nothing. Merlin had only just noticed that he was breathing heavily and sweating like mad.

"Gwen..." He signed in relief. His breathing was still made and heavy.

"Merlin. Let go of the bed." Gwen said calmly. He frowned and looked at his hands. He was holding the edge of the bed and it looked like it was about to snap in two.

"Sorry..." He mumbled under his breath. Gwen looked at him pitifully. She then brought him into a hug. Merlin, for a second didn't know how to reacted, but then hugged her back, being careful not to crush here with his strength.

Just then, Morgana appeared at the door.

"What happened? I heard screaming." She asked, catching her breath. She must have ran from somewhere.

"Merlin was having a bad dream." Morgana frowned.

"A Nightmare? Oh Merlin." She walked over to the bed and sat down on the other side. She brought him into a hug. Merlin tried to get his head around his dream.

"I'll go get Gaius." Gwen said then left to go find the old man. Morgan let go of Merlin. He didn't say anything. He looked round the room, like he didn't think it was real. Morgana understood that. It took her time to get her head round the world after a nightmare.

"M – Morgana. Do you think my dream could mean something?" Morgana looked up and right into his eyes. She found suddenly that she couldn't take her eyes away from his.

"I don't know Merlin." She said calmly. "You have magic now..."

"Like you." He said eagerly. His hopes seemed to be brightening. So where hers.

"Yes Merlin. Like me. However, I do not know what your dream means."

"You haven't heard it." Morgana gained the power to part from his eyes.

"Merlin, I bet people could hear you screaming from the other side of Camelot." She shook her head. "I don't think I want to." Merlin lowered his head. He understood.

Just then, Gaius came in.

"Ah, Merlin. You gave all a scare there. What happened boy?" Merlin looked from Morgana to Gaius.

"What?"

"You were found unconscious in the woods." Morgana said. Merlin blinked twice and rubbed his eyes.

"What... Oh, shit! Now I remember what happened." He then went off telling the about Will, what she said about a vampire and how she can turn him back. His rant went on forever nearly, but it was only an hour. Gaius and Morgana listened and didn't interrupt.

When Merlin finished, no one asked if he was going to take it or not Gaius got up and left to go inform the Arthur as he had been worried sick.

Morgana and Merlin were left alone. She smiled at him and goes up to leave.

"I hope you get better Merlin. I would quite like to see you at the feast tonight." Merlin frowned.

"Feast?" He didn't know anything of this.

"Yes. We've just gotten word back from Herrinie up in Scotland. They wish to have a peace treating. We've agreed and sent are conditions and they accepted. We are celebrating the face that they've accepted. Herrinie is a powerful city you know. I hope to see you there." She smiled then walked off.

He was going to be there alright.

The vampire had done his work. Why weren't the druids happy? He had gotten a guardian to do his dirty work for him, that's why. Emrys wasn't human. He needed to speed things up. He only had to wait one night and a day. Tonight the half-brained vampires will try to steal it. The one thing Uther has locked up for years. With that power, they will crush Camelot. It may also help him deal with Emrys.

The book of the dead.

The five words would normally send a shiver down a person's spin, but he was the shiver that went down there spin. It was simple. Too simple. The half-brained vampires would mess it up. The boys too cleaver. Good thing the next night will be his last as the dead.

Yes.

His job will then be done and he can get away from those druids. Yes. He might take a trip to Cyprus over the seas. A nice holiday.

However, first, was Emrys.

Let's steer his dreams a little more.

Well,? What do you think. Tell me in a review please, they help.

Please review.
