I LOVED THIS CHAPTER. I know I was the one who wrote it but it was so fun to write. Thank you for all your wonderful reviews. It makes me really happy every time someone posts a new review.

Enjoy!

Great! Merlin thought. Why the hell did he have to go and slay another Harpy. It was bad enough last time. Jordan had gotten seriously injured. And he had been able to use magic freely. Now the only thing he would have to kill it with would be Ddraig Anadl. He used that last time but he had to get close to the creature first.

"Hurry up Merlin." Arthur told him. "We leave at noon."

Merlin was stuck packing the bags, as usual.

"Do you even know what a Harpy looks like?" Merlin asked Arthur, who probably didnt.

"A women and a bird mixed together. Not that hard to miss." Arthur commented and Merlin slapped his head.

"Well, a women and a bird. What a great description." Merlin said to his friend. Who was also his master, but only in camelot.

"Well, no ones exactly gotten close enough to it without being killed MERLIN." Arthur told him and Merlin was about this close to tell him that he was one of the only people who had actually slayed a harpy.

Before he could comment there was a knock on the door. Merlin groaned, now what?

"Enter!" Arthur shouted. The knights came inside.

"Ah, Did you find anything?" Percival and Elyan shook they're heads but Leon and Gwaine nodded.

"Ok Leon, Gwaine, lets hear it." Arthur said and Gwaine looked at Merlin.

"Sire, the harpy is a dangerous creature. The only person that has been able to slay it in the last few centuries was the lost prince many years ago." Merlin stared at Leon, how the hell did he know that!

"And apparently this prince has a magical sword called Draid Aiodl or something like that." Gwaine commented, looked at Merlin's sword.

Even though you couldnt notice it because of the enchantment it was still there. Gwaine had seen it placed under the enchantment so he could just see it if he really was concentrating.

"Ddraig Anadl, Gwaine. It means Dragon's breathe" Merlin spoke up. The least his friend could do was remember what his sword was called.

Arthur stared at Merlin for a moment.

"How did you know that?" He asked surprised.

"I'm not a totaly idiot you know." Merlin said and Arthur raised an eyebrow.

"That's debatable." He replied.

"Prat." Merlin mummbled.

"Dollop head." Arthur counted and Merlin tried to look offended.

"That's my word!" He shouted.

"Actually, that's my word." A voice said from the door and they all turned to see Jordan looking on Amused.

"The King wishes us to ride in one hour, sire." He bowed to Merlin but it would have looked like it was to arthur. Jordan then turned and left.

"Well, we better get ready to go." Arthur said, dismissing the knights.

Merlin was in the stables. Preparing his and Arthur's horses for the long trip ahead.

"You know. You could have warned me that you were using my insult." A voice from behind him said and Merlin turned to see Jordan staring at him.

"Didnt think you would mind." Merlin replied. "You seem to hate me so much."

"I was angry Merlin. And can you blame me?"He asked. "I have seen my friends die."

"I didn't choose to leave." Merlin said. "William knocked me out. When I came to the battle was already over."

Merlin smiled a sad smile.

"I couldnt even return without risk of discovery. But then news of a peace treaty comes up and Arthur goes so I have to go too." Merlin sighed.

"I see you made a new life for yourself." Jordan said sadly.

"I did, but it doesnt mean I dont miss this." Merlin motioned to the stables.

"And now I am the last bloody dragonlord. A supposed all powerful warlock and I have to protect the once and future king." Merlin put his hand through his hair.

"You dont have to do all that Merlin." Jordan said to him.

"Do you know what the last thing that my father said to me, as my king?" Merlin asked Jordan and Jordan shook his head.

"He told me that we cannot escape our destiny. I didnt believe him but now i do." Merlin said.

"And I'm sorry but everytime someone or something gets in the way. They are taken from me. Even the women that I loved." Merlin sad sadly.

"Never knew you were that good at speeches mate." A voice said and Merlin spun around to see Gwaine waking into the stables.

"Who's this?" Jordan asked Merlin.

"This is Gwaine. He's a knight of camelot." Merlin said and Gwaine nodded.

"Gwaine this is Jordan. He was one of my closest friends many years ago." Merlin said and Jordan and Gwaine shook hands.

"One question?" Gwaine asked and Jordan nodded.

"Have you ever managed to get Merlin drunk?" Gwaine asked with a serious face. Jordan broke out in a grin.

"Oh yes. And trust me, half the time we ended up in the stocks." Jordan said and Gwaine cracked up laughing.

"You have to show me how to get him drunk. He barely even has anything to drink!" Gwaine shouted.

"Remember when you got up infront of the whole kingdom while your father was Making a speech and did an irish Jig?" Jordan asked Merlin and cracked up laughing. Gwaine started to laugh too.

"How could I forget? I never heard the end of it." Merlin chuckled.

"I remember that!" Thomas came into the stables and caused a new round of laughter.

When they managed to stop laughing Jordan stared at Merlin.

"I'm sorry about earlier." Jordan said and Got down on one knee. Bowing his head low.

"Nonononnononononono! No bowing!" Merlin yelled but Gwaine just laughed, shook his head and followed suit. Finally, Thomas bowed to Merlin aswell.

"I,Sir Jordan Bulion, Pledge my allegiance to Prince Merlin Ambrosious, the rightful Heir to the throne of Asectian, And I will fight to the death." Jordan pledged.

"I, Sir Gwaine Diverad, Pledge my allegiance to Prince Merlin Ambrosious, the rightful heir to the throne of Asectian, and my drinking buddy. I will die for you Merlin." Gwaine said and Merlin was surprised at hearing Gwaine's last name, He had never heard Gwaine's last name.

"I, Thomas Arthur, Pledge my allegiance to Prince Merlin Ambrosious, the rightful heir to the throne of Asectian, And one of my first and Best friends. And I will fight till my last breathe."

Merlin took out his sword. And placed it on Gwaine's shoulders.

"Rise, Sir Gwaine, Knight of Asectian." He said and Gwaine rose.

"Rise, Sir Jordan, Knight of Asectian." He said and Jordan rose.

"Rise, Sir Thomas, Knight of Asectian." He said and Thomas rose.

"I know you are already knights, I know you are already serving a king. But you have also pledged your allegiance to me. And that makes you true Asectian knights. And that bond can never be severed. For it is a bond of brother hood. The brotherhood of Asectian." Merlin said smiling proudly.

"Gwaine, my friend, you brought me strength when I was upset. You always show strength no matter what the cause and you are one of my best friends. Even the Dwarf said you were Strength. I thought he meant Physically but now I see he meant mentally."

"Thomas, you were the most honourable knight I knew. You would have been great friends with my friend Lancelot. You would always stand up for what is right but you would always think of the consequences. You will always do what's right."

"Jordan, you always tell the truth. When I returned you didn't welcome me like Thomas, you told me what has happened, you are never afraid to speak your mind and you have never feared the consequences."

"So I see know that I have the best knights in the land at my side. Nothing can stand in our way. But…" Merlin grinned at Gwaine. "You might need some new weapons."

I loved writing that Chapter. I was like, just let my fingers do the typing. I never expected I would actually do THAT. What do you think Merlin meant by weapons? I know what he meant but I want to see If you can guess. O.O
