Chapter 46

Morgana could feel her body trembling as she stared sown at the catastrophe created by the explosion, she heard soldiers scream out, some being crushed, others thrown from the force. She watched as more knights flooded the area, amongst all the dries of pain and commands being called out she heard him, his voice angry, filled with eagerness and rage.

"I'M COMING FOR YOU MORGANA"

It seemed to echo impossibly over the noise

She felt her blood go cold, her hand trembled, she was spun around by Kara, the blonde's eyes locking with hers

"He is not gonna come near you" she wrapped her arms around Morgana, pulling her into her embrace "I won't let him" she vowed

Morgana shook her head

The sorceress shook her head slowly she turned back to the window away from Kara

"You don't understand"

Her voice trembled

"Helios is a trickster, this is just misdirection" her breathing ragged "There's more"

Morgana looked back down across Camelot Helios is army hadn't yet moved they did not swarm in the hole just created in the wall they stood their ground, she moved back to the window looking out trying to see what Helios was planning

Another explosion rocked the Castle structure, Morgana gripped the wall for support main gates of the citadel were blasted open, metal from the portcullis flying in all directions along with splinters of the wooden gate, shredding into those closest, more cries of pain rang out

Morgana clasped her hands to her face, covering her mouth, tears stinging her eyes, she couldn't believe the carnage that she was seeing

She felt Kara's presence at her side but the blonde too was stunned into silence

The roar of Helios's army rang out around the castle grounds as they flooded into the citadel from both directions, essentially enclosing the knights and surrounding them

Morgana's eyes found Helios as he strolled in like he already believed he owned the castle and the grounds and the people, it turned Morgana's stomach at the ease that he cut down the people in front of him with no remorse

The knights of Camelot had already broken their defence lines the moment the second explosion had occurred, now they were being herded away from the main castle

Morgana could hear King Arthur calling out commands to his men trying to get them to form a shield wall against the attack but they were too spread out and they were outnumbered greatly, Helios's men will not as well trained as the Knights of Camelot but they didn't need to be with the numbers, they could just swamp the knights

Morgana knew in that moment Camelot would fall, she couldn't let that happen, she needed to help them, magic may be the only thing to save her Kingdom, no matter if Arthur wanted it or not, she would not let the Warlord win, he would not stop at just killing her and Arthur along with the knights, but anyone that would defy him, including defenceless villagers

She turned to the blonde seeing that her blue eyes were filled with sadness, Kara looked up into Morgana's eyes, she frowned, she knew that look in the sorceress's face, it was the same one that Lena had when she was going to do something dangerous, and instantly Kara knew what she was thinking

"No" She said simply placing her hands on top of Morgana's arms, keeping her in place, she shook her head "I won't let you, you're not getting out of this room" She was trying to keep her voice level

Morgana smiled sadly Kara taking a strand of blonde hair and tucking it behind her ear, taking in her beauty

She wished she didn't have to go, but she couldn't let Camelot or her brother fall, if possibly risking her life got Kara back to her home, back to the woman she loved, then that was a price she would gladly pay, it was the only way that Morgana could see this working

"Oh Kara you have shown me so much made me believe again" she smiled again "You brought me home"

Tears fell from Morgana's green eyes, she let them rolled down her cheek, Kara shook her head again this time with more conviction

"You're not going anywhere" the blonde's hands moved to Morgana's face, cupping her cheeks lightly "I'm not letting you out of my sight" She vowed

"You're too important to me" she whispered, Kara leaned her forehead against Morgana's gently, closing her eyes

"Stay with me Morgana, please" she begged quietly "Please"

Morgana allowed herself to enjoy the closeness, closing her eyes too, taking a deep breath feeling Kara's warm skin of her hands on her cheeks and how soft they were

"Everything will be ok, I promise" the raven haired sorceress whispered to Kara "I hope you find your way home, sweet Kara"

She pulled back a little so she could look into Kara's eyes, her own flaring gold as she used her magic

"Don't" Kara pleaded silently, tears streaming down her face as her grip tightened, trying to hold onto Morgana

But it was too late Morgana leant forward and placed a light kiss against her forehead

"Sleep" she muttered against Kara's skin

The blonde's eyes closed slowly, her body starting to give

Morgana gently helped her to the floor, making sure she didn't injure herself, the sorcerers took a deep breath and wiped water from her eyes, smiling down at Kara who was now asleep

"You'll be safe in here" Morgana caressed Kara's check for what could be the last time "Thank you everything Kara Danvers"

And with that Morgana stood and walked towards the door letting herself out and hurrying down the corridor hoping she was not too late.
