REVIEW:
"Where the hell are we?" asked Sharron looking around. They were surrounded by green hills and a forest off in the distance.
&&&&&
"Tristan." Said Arthur.
The scout nodded once then went up the hill. "What's Tristan doing?" asked Scarlett.
"His job." Said Lancelot helping Sharron to her feet, everyone else got up.
Tristan came back, "The wall is on the horizon." They all headed up the hill and walked in the direction of the wall.
"Well now we know how they got into our time." Said Sharron. The girls were walking behind the knights trying to figure out what to do.
"They don't have movies or any electronics for that matter." Said Belle.
"Which brings us back to square one." Said Kelley.
"How they get in our time." Said Scarlett.
"I bet it was Merlin." Whispered Kelley.
"What?"
"Well he has a lot of magic and stuff plus these stories I've read on fan fiction…"
"Kelley get off the fan fiction it's not real." Said Scarlett.
"And who would have thought this was real?" asked Sharron.
"Good point." Said Scarlett.
"So what do we do?" asked Kelley.
"Right now we need to calm down." Said Belle.
"I'm calm so anyway how long do you think we'll be here?" asked Sharron.
"I don't know but this will defiantly be an adventure." Said Kelley. She winked at her friends and walked up to Galahad starting a conversation.
"When in Rome." Grinned Sharron skipping up to Lancelot.
"We aren't in Rome." Said Belle.
"When in Britain." Said Scarlett walking even with Gawain.
"And that just sounds stupid." Said Belle. They had been walking for awhile and Belle walked up to Arthur, "Hey."
"Hello." He replied with a nod.
"I was wondering how long have you and the knights been in service for Rome?" "It is coming to the end of their final year. Why?" he asked.
"Just wondering. How long until you think we get to the wall?" asked Belle.
"It seems to be about a day." Said Arthur.
"You seem to be glad to be home." Said Belle grinning.
Arthur nodded, "I am, I did like your home it was interesting but…"
"You like it here better." Finished Belle.
"I did enjoy the food." Said Arthur.
Belle smiled, "Well I'm glad to see you happy though."
"Your sister and friends seem to be glad to be here as well." Said Arthur. Belle looked back at the girls walking with the knights, "I don't think they care as long as they are with the knights."
"What about you? You seem to have a certain scout on your mind." Said Arthur grinning.
"Maybe but I don't think he feels much of anything for me, not that I could really tell anyway." Said Belle. She watched Tristan ahead of them scanning the woods.
They got to the woods, "Go through?" Tristan nodded.
"Woads?"
"Not yet." He said.
"Let's hurry then." Said Arthur and the group went into the woods. Belle didn't know how long they had been in the woods and couldn't see much through the trees that grew so close together. They walked into a small clearing and Tristan stopped.
"Oh great." Whispered Kelley.
"What?" asked Sharron.
"They always stop when there are…"
"Woads." Said Tristan.
"Where?"
"Surrounding us."
"Well that's just great." Muttered Scarlett. Belle slid behind Tristan as a large circle of Woads surrounded them except for a single space in front of Arthur. All of the knights had a hand on their weapons waiting for the Woads to attack but they didn't.
"Peace this day Arthur." Called a voice. The owner of the voice walked into the empty spot and towards Arthur, it was Merlin.
"He needs a bath." Whispered Kelley.
"Quiet." Ordered Scarlett. Belle still stood behind Tristan but stepped away.
"What do you want?" asked Arthur.
"We come for the women." Said Merlin.
In a flash the knights had their swords drawn, "You won't get them." Snarled Galahad. The knights made a circle around them.
"Told you." Kelley whispered to Scarlett.
The Woads drew their weapons, "We will have them." Said Merlin.
"No you won't." said Arthur.
"Belle time for you to play diplomat." Said Scarlett.
"Some how I don't think talking will work." Whispered Belle.
"We have to do something." Said Kelley. Belle looked around then she crawled under Tristan's legs.
"Why do you want us?" asked Belle.
"Belle what are you doing?"
"Playing diplomat." She answered not taking her eyes from Merlin.
"All will be revealed in time." Said Merlin.
"That's not what she asked you." Said Scarlett.
"I will come with you only if you swear that you would not harm them and give them safe passage through these woods." Said Belle.
"It is done." Said Merlin with a nod.
"What?"
"No way Belle!"
"You can't go with him."
"No."
"Arthur pulled her back, "Arthur I will be safe." Belle pulled away and the knights held the other three women back. Belle finally looked at Tristan who she gave and encouraging wink. Belle faded into the woods with the Woads and Merlin.
Scarlett pulled from Gawain and stormed up to Arthur and kicked him in the leg screaming, "Why did you let her go?"
Gawain pulled her back and wrapped his arms around her, "He had to let her go, and she went of her own free will. Breath."
"But my best friend…"
"Breath." Said Gawain.
"But…"
"Take a breath." Soothed Gawain.
Scarlett finally took a deep breath and her body relaxed against Gawain with her eyes closed. After a few moments Scarlett stepped away and everyone was looking at them, "What are you staring at? Shouldn't we get to the fort?" They snapped out of it and finally went on.
&&&&&
"Um Merlin where are you taking me?" asked Belle.
"All will be revealed in time." Said Merlin.
"Well I would like to know now if that is alright with you. I didn't want to press it in front of the knights so a fight could be avoided." Said Belle following Merlin.
"And that is why you were allowed to come and not one of your companions." Said Merlin.
"You let me come just because I don't want a fight; you said you wanted all of us." Said Belle. Merlin didn't answer as they passed through a wall of bushes. Belle's mouth dropped at the development before her it was an entire city.
"Wow."
"Come you must meet my family Gwenivere." Said Merlin.
"Gwenivere?" asked Belle catching up with him.
"Yes."
"This is insane." Murmured Belle. They walked up a set of stairs and into a large hut. Merlin sat her on one side of the fire in the middle then sat across form her next to a brunette woman.
"Belle, this is Gwenivere."
"Nice to meet you." Said Belle smiling.
"I suppose you want to know how you got here." Said Merlin.
"Yes actually I would." Said Belle.
"I brought you here." Said Merlin.
'Kelley was right.' Belle thought. "You were brought ere to help those you have love for." Said Merlin.
"I sort of understand how and why we are here. I don't understand why the knights were brought to my time." Said Belle.
Merlin suddenly found the ceiling very interesting, with a sigh Gwenivere explained, "His spell went backwards his words were not of focus with his mind so he had to try it again later after he had rested."
"So Merlin is human." Said Belle grinning.
"Ahem." Coughed Merlin.
"Sorry."
"You and your sisters hold the hearts of two knights and know their fate." Said Merlin.
"And?" asked Belle.
"The fates have told me it is not yet time for them to pass on." Said Merlin.
"Is he usually like this?" questioned Belle Gwenivere nodded.
"So you want to know what is going to happen to them?" asked Belle.
"No I am not meant to interfere more than I have." He answered.
"But there are three knights that die we have to save all three don't we?"
"I was told only two knights who needed to be saved." Said Merlin.
"But my sisters and I won't accept that we could save a man when we could prevent it." Protested Belle.
"I do not know what the Fates wish of this third man." Said Merlin.
"And I do." Said Belle.
"You cannot go against the pattern that is set." Said Merlin.
"Obviously you have never seen Final Destination." Mumbled Belle, "I am sorry Merlin but I cannot just sit by and let it happen to him when I could change it. Even if you could convince me to stand by then you wouldn't change my friend's minds."
"You are not meant to die here." Said Merlin.
"You mean we have to stay here for the rest of our lives." Said Belle.
"No." Belle relaxed.
"Just you."
"What!" screamed Belle, "You've got to be kidding, why me? Not that I want to loose my friends but why not one of them? Scarlett is a great leader and Kelley more people like her. I'm not a 'let's go save the kingdom' kind of girl."
"You know the fate of the nights."
"So do they, I'm not strong enough to stay 1500 years in the past." Said Belle trying to calm down.
"You hold the heart of a knight and he will help you." Said Merlin.
"No I don't Sharron has Lancelot, Scarlett and Gawain get along well, and then there is Kelley and Galahad. I do not hold the heart of any knight."
"The scout." Said Gwenivere grinning.
"No way; I think I annoy him more than anything but then again he never shows any emotion but that's beside the point." Said Belle.
"The point is you and your sisters are meant to save two knights." Said Merlin.
"We are going to save three." Said Belle.
"You cannot change fate." Said Merlin.
"But you make no sense you just said Fate said for us to change it." Said Belle.
"All will be revealed in time." Said Merlin.
"You are very hypocritical." Said Belle, "Are you going to let me go?"
"You seem to understand the purpose of your presents here."
"I guess." Merlin called out for someone as he stood. A man came in and Belle saw that he was the man who had tried to seek up on Arthur in their fight for the Bishop.
"Belle go with him and he will escort you back to the Roman's fort." Belle curtsied to him and ducked out of the tent.
After Belle Merlin turned to Gwenivere, "There are some force south of here that are in need of your leadership against their master."
&&&&&
"You can't pout forever Scarlett." Said Gawain.
"My best friend was carried off by a bunch of blue freaks!" yelled Scarlett stomping. They had made it out of the woods and would soon be at the wall.
&&&&&
"You don't seem upset." Lancelot said to Sharron.
"I have more trust in the world around me. Besides I don't think Merlin will hurt Belle."
"You trust those blue devils that much?" asked Lancelot.
"Those blue devils could have killed us if they wanted but they didn't. I trust that they will not hurt my sister." Said Sharron.
&&&&&
Galahad and Kelley were holding hands, "Are you worried for Belle?"
"Yes and no. I don't worry much about anything but she is just like a sister to me so I will worry a little." Said Kelley.
"All Belle needs to do is cook for them and she will be fine." Smiled Galahad.
Kelley laughed and kissed the back of Galahad's hand, "Thank-you for being so sweet."
&&&&&
"Scarlett you cannot control everything." Said Gawain.
"Why not?" she asked sticking out her bottom lip.
Gawain smiled at her and put his arms around her, "You just can't I'm sorry. You can control your mind but your heart you cannot."
Scarlett laid back into Gawain, "How is it you can help me relax so quickly?"
"I don't know but you are a difficult woman to please."
"Thanks for ruining the moment." Said Scarlett pulling away.
"Scarlett come here." Laughed Gawain pulling her back.
"What?"
Gawain laced his fingers with hers and kissed her hand, "You should not worry over which you have no control. You should apologize to Arthur."
"Why?"
"He already feels bad about Belle and you didn't make it better by kicking him."
"Fine I'll apologize."
"Good." Said Gawain kissing Scarlett's hand.
The silence was broken with a familiar voice screaming, "I'm going to die!" and a horse pounding across the land. Gawain and Scarlett ran up a hill they saw a man on a horse with a woman I front of him. He pushed the woman off and Tristan caught her. The rider turned back and rode back the way he had come.

Well what do you guys think?
