Familia pt.11

Hello, hope you are having a good day.

"His stab wound is deep and is most likely puncturing a lung." Gaius sadly continued. Freya gasped. Gaius and Arthur took Merlin's jacket and shirt off so that Gaius could look at the wounds on Merlin's torso. He listed everything that he needed to treat Merlin. When he finished, Freya went to get it. Merlin was gasping for air. Imogene and Luke went to Merlin.

"Will daddy be ok?" Imogene asked.

"Maybe. It's up to him." Gaius answered. Imogene kissed her father's forehead and then left with Luke. Merlin's eyelids started moving and Merlin started groaning. Freya came in with the things Gaius needed. "I need to give him something for the pain." Freya gave Gaius pain medicine and Gaius got Merlin to drink it. Merlin sighed and fell back to sleep. Merlin was still gasping for air. Gaius and Freya treated Merlin's wounds. Gaius had to use magic to treat the punctured lung. When they finished treating Merlin, Percival and Arthur came in.

"Lord Tristan was the one who tried to kill Merlin. Luckily he's dead. How's Merlin?" Arthur explained.

"He's very weak. He might live but if he does he'll be resting for a while." Gaius sighed. SO for the next week and a half Merlin was asleep. He was slowly getting weaker. He stated to have a fever. Freya was tending to him one night as his fever got worse. Merlin was gasping a lot. Freya wiped the sweat from his face and shushed him. Then Gaius came in.

"He doesn't need this now. He's too weak. The fever is killing him. What's causing this?" Freya cried sadly.

"The yarrow is helping him heal. The fever is caused by the yarrow. He won't survive. He has only less than a week." Gaius replied.

"Is there anything we can do?"

"There is one thing but only Arthur can help Merlin with it."
