Magic pt.11
Hello, hope you are having a good day.
It had been one of the few times that Merlin had smiled. Hunith went over to Merlin. Balinor used magic on spot were merlin vomited. The vomit disappeared. Hunith sat down and kissed Merlin's forehead. They all watched as Merlin and the knights went to save Gwen.
After everyone had fallen back to sleep after Leon and Percival had a vision, Merlin felt something strange. He got up and walked into the woods. He heard something and went in that direction. He felt a sharp pain in his leg. He screamed as loud as he could and looked down. He saw a snake and moved away. He sat down on the ground and looked at his leg. He saw 2 puncture wounds. Arthur and the knights came running to Merlin.
"Merlin, what happened?" Arthur asked.
"I got bitten by a venomous snake. I heard something and came to see what it was. I got bitten by a snake. I need help getting to camp. When I get there I'll need my bag." Merlin painfully panted. Arthur carried Merlin back to camp. Gwaine got merlin's bag. Merlin vomited on himself. "Gwaine, you will see a small book find it." Gwaine found the book. "You'll find that in it, it'll tell you what to do about snake bites." Gwaine looked in the book and found it. He began to do what the book said. Merlin kept calm and tried to stay awake. He had a high fever and was nauseous. Half an hour later Merlin began to convulse. Finally, Gwaine finished making an antidote. He did what the book said. Merlin began to recover. He was very weak. Gwaine went to the others.
"How is he?" Arthur questioned.
"He's weak. He's resting right now. He'll need to rest for a while." Gwaine answered. So Merlin rested. His magic destroyed any venom in him.
"That was so painful. Luckily my magic helped keep me alive." Merlin said.
"So I did all that work for nothing?" Gwaine wondered teasingly.
"No. My magic wouldn't have been able to get rid of all of it."
"Nice to know I did something right."
"Yeah with the help of a book."
They watched what happened. When Elyan died Merlin felt slightly guilty.
"If anyone says that Elyan's death didn't hurt me as much then you must be an idiot because I almost went into shock." Merlin explained. They watched as an evil Gwen helped Morgana.
When Merlin got back into the cell he collapsed on the bed. He used his jacket as a blanket and went to sleep. Merlin had a nightmare and woke up screaming. A guard came to his cell.
"What's your problem?" The guard rudely asked.
"Nothing. Just a nightmare. Happens all the time." Merlin replied sleepily.
"Well next time try not to wake the dead."
"Can I have some water?"
"You don't deserve it."
"Please?"
"No. Now shut up."
Then Percival came.
"Is there a problem here?" Percival questioned sternly.
"I had a nightmare and he came to me and started being rude. I asked for some water and he said no." Merlin explained.
"You're dismissed."
The guard left. Percival got Merlin a cup of water and went into the cell and gave Merlin the water.
"Merlin, I know you didn't try to kill Arthur." Percival quietly sighed.
"Thanks." Merlin replied. Percival left and Merlin got some sleep.
"Why is it that Percival is the only knight who admitted that he knew that I didn't try to kill Arthur?" Merlin wondered angrily making Leon and Gwaine feeling guilty in the process.
"Sorry." Gwaine and Leon mumbled.
