WARNING: While I don't consider this a death!drabble, you might. It makes me think more of Dragoon (the Great), but take it as you will. Oh, and, to mimic Ultra-Geek: Angsty!Arthur is angsty.

The door was locked. Locked!

Arthur couldn't get out; he was stuck, trapped…

BANG.

"Let me out! Open the door!"

There was no answer. Mind blaring with panic, he ran to the window, feet slapping too slowly on the floor… He had to get out.

Arthur was trapped.

Soon, he knew, down in the courtyard, people would be stepping back from the heat blasting their faces, wincing as a sorcerer screamed for Arthur's help.

And Arthur would be in his room, beating against the door, and calling Merlin's name right back. But no one would be able to hear him.
