Chapter 12

Everyone minus Percival is sat in the living room watching the television

"And this is entertainment" affirmed Gwaine

"Yes, there are many different shows all about different things, there are factual shows, funny shows, there's something for everyone" confirms Merlin.

Percival then comes into the room dressed in jeans, a short sleeved t-shirt and a pair of trainers.

"So what do you think?" asks Percival.

"You look great Percival" answers Gwen.

"You think so?" questions Percival.

"Yes, definitely" replies Gwen.

"So what's next on the 'getting used to this time' agenda?" queries Percival.

"PUB!" chorus all the guys.

They all get into the car and Merlin drives them to the local pub, but before they walk in Merlin takes them to the side.

"Guys remember what I said, don't draw attention to yourselves yeah" said Merlin.

"Merlin, we're not stupid" answers Arthur

"Enough of this you sissy's, let's go" says a slightly over excite Gwaine

They all walk into the pub.

"We'll have four tankards of your finest mead please barman?" asks Percival

"Coming right up, ... oh hey Will, are these friends of yours?" asks the barman.

"Hi John, yeah, these guys are friends from way back, this is Arthur, Dan and Percy, guys this is my friend John" introduces Merlin.

They all say hi to each other and John the barman gives them all their drinks, then they go and sit at a table and start drinking their mead.

"This is good stuff" comments Gwaine.

"You got that right" replies Arthur.

"So Merlin, tell me more about your being a sorcerer?" asks Percival.

"I've been using magic since the day I was born, so technically I'm a warlock not a sorcerer" answers Merlin.

"But how did you learn spells when you lived in Ealdor?" questions Percival.

"I didn't I just used non-verbal spells, and a few that my mom told me from her time with my dad, it wasn't until I arrived at Camelot and started reading Gaius' spell books I started using verbal spells properly" explains Merlin.

While they continue to chat, at Avalon Lake, another boat arrives at the shore, this time containing Sir Leon, who gets out of the boat ad looks around him, not knowing what to think of all that has happened.

"Leon, is that you?" asks Gwen who has come down to the lake for a walk while the others went to the pub.

"Your majesty, you don't look a day over ..." starts Leon.

"... the last day Arthur saw me" finishes Gwen.

"Yes, is there a reason for that?" asks the newly reawakened knight.

"It's a long story" replies the Queen of Camelot.

"Well, it's about to get longer, look" points out Leon as the two of them see another boat glide towards the shore. When they get there, they see that is Elyan.

"Well, are you gonna help me up or what?" asks the knight.

Leon then helps his knight out of his boat coffin. "Elyan!" says Gwen in utter disbelief.

"Hello sister" says Elyan.

The siblings then greet each other with a hug. "Would someone like to tell me what's going on?" asks Elyan.

"Let's go somewhere a little more private" says Gwen.

Just as the three of them are about to walk off they hear crying "I know those cries" says Gwen who then looks into the third boat that arrived at shore without them noticing and sees her twins, just as they were they day she gave birth to them. "Arthur, Isolde, oh my god".
