Thank you reviewers!
Lucillaq- Yeah, Natalie and Tristan will get further in there relationship. You sad about Gawain and Selene? Don't worry. I was going to let them become friends after the war, but I'll change it to make you happy. lol.
Lady11occult- I kind of regret killing off Dag. Anyway, I'm not sure if Natalie was having a heartattack. Sometimes I'll start getting this pain in my chest and it hurts when I breathe. Yet, it only turns up now and then. But it kills. I thought, hey, maybe I should put some of me in Natalie, and well that popped in my head. I'm not sure what it is.
Disclaimer- I own nothing except the characters that were not in the movie.
Chapter 13- The Fort
They came to the wall the next day. When they entered they were greeted by the caravan and Jols. Tristan helped Natalie off of his horse. She looked around and saw that she was now at Hadrian's wall and she was happy.
Emilee got off of the horse and looked around. She noticed Lucan squeezing through the crowd. He went up to Guinevere. "Where is Dagonet?" he asked. Lucan looked around and saw everyone, but Dag. Guinevere kneeled down next to the boy. As she did so, Lucan noticed Dag's horse with a covered body on it. He saw a hand sticking out and noticed the ring as Dag's.
He ran towards the horse, but guards went to stop him. Galahad took out a dagger and placed it at a guards neck. Arthur yelled, "Let the boy go." Lucan went over to the hand and took the ring. Guinevere came up behind him and rubbed his shoulders. "It's okay Lucan." she kept repeating it over and over to him.
Selene looked through the crowd. She couldn't catch sight of who she was looking for. "Looking for someone?" a voice asked. She turned around to see Gawain dragging Erik over. "The kid won't let go of my leg." he stated. Selene chuckled. "Erik, no hanging on Gawain." she ordered. Erik let go. A woman walked up to them. "Is this girl yours?" she asked Gawain.
Gawain rose an eyebrow. "Uh...No?" The woman rolled her eyes. "Yours?" she turned towards Selene. Selene smiled. "Not mine, but I take care of them." she took Willow out of the woman's arms. "Thank you." Selene mentioned as the lady walked away.
Selene looked at Gawain. "So, I'm still alive, but wet and cold. Yet remember, alive." she said. Gawain looked at her. Just then, Galahad came up. "I'll take Willow and Erik with Lauren's help, while you get changed." he stated. Lauren came over. "Yes, that sounds good." she replied. Selene nodded and walked to get Natalie.
In the distance she saw Natalie standing with Tristan behind her. Natalie was staring at Bors. Selene walked up. "We should get changed or we may get sick." Selene stated. Natalie looked at her. "He's dead and Bors is a bloody mess." she exclaimed. Selene nodded. "Yes, but your soon going to die if you don't get changed. Change now, mourn later." ordered Selene.
Natatlie shook her head no. "My body feels numb." she stated. Selene laughed. "That is why we must get changed and take a warm bath." Selene added. Natalie looked back at Lucan and Dagonet's horse. "I don't feel like moving." Selene grabbed Natalie's shoulders. "You are so stubborn!" she yelled. Natalie shrugged Selene's hands off.
Tristan stood there listening to the sisters talk. Selene looked at him. "Tell her to go get changed." Tristan rose an eyebrow. Natalie looked towards the ground. "I'm coming." She followed Selene to her room.
After taking a bath and changing, Emilee came into Selene's room. "The knights got their papers. We are burying Dagonet at sunset." she said Natalie looked at Emilee. "I need to talk to you both." she stated. Interested, both Emilee and Selene sat on the bed.
"Before the battle on the ice, my chest hurt." she said. Emilee looked at her. "What do you mean?" asked Emilee. Natalie shrugged. "Under my heart, everytime I breathed something stung. I don't know what caused it." she continued. Selene stood up.
"You should inform Merlin." she said. Natalie shook her head. "I'm fine now though." she replied. Emilee looked out the window. She saw Gawain and Tristan sparring. They were most likely fighting to get there anger out. Both never cried, not atleast in front of people. A question popped into Emilee's head.
"Selene, what's up with you and Gawain. One day you are friends, the next day enemies. Do you like him more than a friend?" asked Emilee. Selene looked at her. "Yes I do. But I think he doesn't return those feelings." she replied. Emilee smiled and thought, that's what you think. She loved playing matchmaker.
Natalie looked out the window too. She saw Tristan and felt her heart drop. "We should head to where the burial will take place." Natalie suggested. The others agreed and they left.
At the burial place Selene found Lauren holding Willow and sitting with Erik. She came over and sat next to her. Once everyone was present Arthur started his speech. "Sir Dagonet was our brother. He was the one that healed us when hurt, the one that comforted us when depressed. He is one of the brothers that we will rememebr forever. Would anyone like to saw a few words?" Arthur asked. Many people were busy crying or staring off into space.
Emilee stepped up, "I met Dagonet while my kin were trying to kill him. Even though we were enemies, he treated us with more compassion than anyother. He was the first to make us feel right at home. When we thought one of our best friends, Natalie, was dead, he comforted us. When Pelej died he helped us smile. When he found Lucan, he took him in as a son. Now, we should not cry. When woads die, we celebrate for the great lives they lived. We should grant him a happy afterlife, for many loved him." When she was finished she placed a flower on the grave.
Lena and Kimmerlee came up to Natalie. The peasants left, but the knights were still present. Emilee came up behind Natalie. Kimmerlee rose an eyebrow. "Why have you joined us, Emilee?" she asked. Emilee smirked. "I wouldn't leave my friend hanging." she responded coldly.
Lena smiled. "Since little miss tough is back, your going back to her side now?" she asked sweetly. Emilee made a face at her.
Natalie moved closer. "What do you want?" she asked them. Lena frowned. "What are you planning to do next? Kill us?" she asked. Natalie loved scaring people. She let out a cold laugh. "The crows do look hungry." she stated. Lena rolled her eyes. "Whatever." she turned away.
The knights looked from Lena to Natalie. In one swift move Natalie swept out her hand and grabbed Lena's hair. She twisted around her hand and pulled her hair back. Lena let out a shriek as she flew back into Natalie. "I was taught that by the saxons." She told. The knigths moved in closer. Natalie was glad Arthur wasn't there.
"Why shouldn't I kill you?" asked Natalie. Lena let a small smirk reach her face. "My lover would kill you." stated Lena. Natalie rose an eyebrow. "If they could beat me." she whispered.
Lena let out a scream as Natalie pulled tighter. "They could kill you in a second. They are here." Natalie rose an eyebrow. "Who?" she asked. The knights froze. Lena said it loud enough for them all to hear. "Tristan." she stated.
Natalie's heart stopped. Her anger finally came out. She threw Lena to the ground and straddled her. She took her hair and pulled out a dagger. She cut the hair to Lena's shoulders. "That I learned from the saxons too. Talking about barbaric." Natalie got up and walked away. She threw the hair she cut at Lena and went back to Selene's room.
The knights stared at Lena who was on the ground crying. Guinevere walked over to where Lena sat. She touched her hair. "She could've done worse. I would've done it too if you touched the man I loved."
Kimmerlee looked at the knights. "You could've stopped this!" she yelled. Bors looked over from Dagonet's grave. Ignoring them, he drunk some more ale and started to mumble again.
Selene got the two younglings and walked off with them followed by Lauren, leaving the knights there to speak amongst themselves. Lancelot looked towards Tristan. "Did you know how she felt?" he asked. Tirstan ignored him and walked to the stables. Lancelot followed him. When they got there, Lancelot closed the stable door.
"Did you know of her feelings?" he asked again. Tristan shrugged. "Did you bed Lena?" he asked. Tristan looked at him. "Twice." he stated. Lancelot rose an eyebrow. "Do you love Lena?" he asked. Tristan shook his head no. Lancelot moved in front of him. "Do you love Natalie?" he asked.
"The way you feel about Emilee." Tristan replied emotionless. Lancelot looked at him. "You love her." stated Tristan. Lancelot smiled. "So you love Natalie?" he asked. Tristan looked at him and shrugged.
Lancelot thought to himself for a moment. "There's something I need to do." he said and left. Tristan forgot about going for a ride and walked around the inn. Around the hallway he heard two voices. They belonged to Emilee and Natalie. They were outside Selene's room.
"Did the saxons actually teach you that?" Emilee asked. Natalie laughed. "Yeah. I did it to the leaders son, but he shaved his head afterwards. I did it to him because he found out I was a woman. He's most likely going to kill me when they come to the wall." Natalie replied.
"You want to die?" asked Emilee. Tristan heard someone crying. It must've been Natalie. "Yes and no. First, I wanted to live. When I was in that cell I wanted to live so I could see Selene grow up, fight with you, joke with Lauren, and see if Tristan was happy. Now, I want to die. Selene is older and has a good life, you seem to fight with Lancelot enough, Lauren seems to joke around with Gawain and Galahad, and Tristan is happy with Lena." said Natalie.
"Lena?" asked Emilee. "He bedded her twice. Plus, it most likely didn't mean anything to him. Plus, I've heard you have feelings for him. Is it true?" asked Emilee. Another voice joined in. "Yes, is it true?" They turned to see Lancelot. Natalie laughed. "Can I talk to you?" asked Lancelot. He walked up to Emilee. She smiled. "Sure." she answered and followed Lancelot down the hall. "Just make sure she comes back!" yelled Natalie.
Natalie heard someone running down the hall. She pulled out a dagger wanting to scare Galahad or Gawain, or whom ever it was. She went to the side and poked her head around and her hand with the dagger. Suddenly she screamed and so did a little boy.
The little boy ran away thinking Natalie was a ghost while Natalie ran to Selene's room. She knocked frantically. Selene opened the door. "What?" she asked annoyed. Natalie pointed to the end of the hallway. "There is this guy there and I heard a kid scream." she said quickly. "Who was the guy?" asked Selene. Natalie froze. "Oh." she mumbled as she headed back to the other end of the hallway.
She looked down the hallway and no one was there. Interested she kept walking down. It was night outside and she was slightly frightened. She walked and eventually bumped into someone. She looked up and saw Tristan.
They both stood there, looking at eachother. Natalie broke the silence. "I'm guesing your the guy that frightened me and that kid." she guessed. He nodded. "So," she continued., "How's Lena.?" she asked.
"I don't love her." he stated matter-of-factly. Natalie felt her heart beat start to go faster. She nodded.

Lancelot looked over at Emilee, they were in his room. "I know today is a sad day because of Dagonet's death. But the saxons are coming and I need to tell you this." Emilee gave him a questionable look. He pushed her against the wall and leaned against her.
He put one hand on her waist and brought the other up to her chin. He slightly rised her face up. Slowly he tilted his head down and let there lips lightly touched. Quickly he pulled away. He looked back down at Emilee. "Do you feel the same?" he questioned. Emilee smiled and pulled him back down for another kiss, that was more passionate.

Natalie stared up at Tristan. He let his hand slip through her hair. It was short, maybe to her shoulders. He placed his other hand in it as well. He moved his face closer to hers. "The scout that fell in love with the enemy." he mumbled in a husky voice that made Natalie's heart skip a few beats. ( That would sound so sexy with his accent and stuff. lol )
He let his lips touch hers slightly when they heard someone yell something. The both pulled away from eachother. The heard the person yell again. It was Jols. "Knights to the wall!" he yelled. Tristan ran to the wall with Natalie following him.

They were so close. I ruined the moment hehe...muahaha...I'm so evil. This chapter was fun writing. I hate Lena, so I wanted to ruin her hair, so I let Natalie do it for me. It was going to be Lauren, but she's so sweet.
The next chapter is going to be the night before the battle of Badon Hill and the morning of it. So lots of romance stuff. Plus, more Selene and Gawain for Lucillaq and more Tristan and Natalie fluff. YAY!
