Hi Merlin fans, and to all my lovely awesome followers, hope you all had a good fun and Happy holiday, and hope you all got what you wanted. Happy reading to you all.

What's truly in the heart.

This world is full of darkness, darkness and nothing more, there is no light to be seen, all there is a head is nothing but the dark.

As he looked at the people around him, he realized there was no longer any goodness in the world, no light, nor good that is left in others hearts, all that there is Left behind is nothing but a black hole, nothing less nothing more.

The only thing that he believes is that this world has to be cleansed, and he is the one to do it, for it is his destiny, and accepts it willingly.

There are no longer any light that's left, and there's no changing that, in his heart, or in the hearts of others.

When Merlin and the others opened their eyes they found themselves in a unfamiliar place.

Merlin looked around the small room. There was a bed in the corner, a small table in the middle of the room, and there was, that seemed to be another room off of this one. And something that was unfamiliar to him against the wall, it looks like some sort of black box of some kind, he'll make a mental note to ask about it later. The color of the walls was a pale green. Against the other wall across from the black thing, stood a covered of some kind.

He was so fascinated of his surroundings It took him a moment to realize that he was still holding hands with Quinn. He released her hand and took a step from her. She turned to look at him, clearly puzzled.

He struggled for something to say, but like usual when he was in her presents his mind went blank.

"Where are we?" Arthur asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

"My home" Replied Quinn quietly, it could be just Merlin, but he could have swore he heard a touch of bitterness to her voice.

"Merlin's spell actually worked?" Asked Arthur incredulous.

"You don't have to make it sound like my spells fail all the time" He said a little offended.

"Not all the time" agreed Arthur "but they do sometimes, or need I remind you about the fish guts?"

"Are you ever going to let that go?"

"No"

"And how many times have I saved you with my 'spells' now?"

"Do you know?" Arthur retorted.

"Arthur, no one can count that high, especially you, you can barely count to five"

The Knights behind them laughed. Arthur opened his mouth to reply when Quinn cut him off.

"Okay you two, stop bickering like an old married couple will you? I know that it will be hard for the both of you, I got faith in ya. Now, Why did you guys come with me?" Her eyes stanned them all. "Why? I'm sure you all are needed back home- you're home, back in Camelot, so why risk it all for me?"

"Like I said before, you're our friend. And Merlin has something to tell you" Arthur pushed him forward.

Merlin Laird menacingly at him before turning his attention to Quinn.

"Quinn, do you know about the Crystal Cave?"

"Yes, of course I-" her eyes widened."Oh, oh no, what did you see?"

He thought about not telling her, but she had a right to know, but there was a part of him that was hesitant to.

"I saw fire, you on the ground, holding a lifeless body of a man in your arms"

"And what does that mean?"

"It means that you may be in danger" Arthur spoke up.

"That's why we came along with you" said Gwaine. "You're our friend and as your friends it is our duty to keep you safe, so don't try talking us out of it, we are stubborn, just as you apparently are"

Quinn smiled. "Oh I can see that" her smile faded. "But how are you guys going to get back home?"

"The same way that we got here" Arthur padded Merlin on the back.

"And if it doesn't work?"

"We will figure out a way" said Arthur confidently.

"But if you don't figure out a way, if you don't find your way back home to Camelot, then it will be all my fault. All this for me? I'm not worth it" Quinn said quietly turned then started to walk away.

"Yes you are" Merlin called after her. She froze in mid-step. He continued."Yes, Quinn you are worth it, don't ever think less of yourself. I see-"

"You what?" Asked Quinn, turning to him. "You what Merlin? You see what?"

"A light"

"A light?" She echoed.

"Yes, I can see a light in you're heart"

"And what does this 'light' that you see look like?"

"It-"

Merlin suddenly realized that they weren't alone. Arthur was smiling looking between them.

All three Knights all looked at one another, smiling as well.

Merlin suddenly felt like he was on the spot. He can't believe for a moment he actually forgot that they weren't alone. "So, um- this is you're home?" He asked, changing the subject.

"Obviously" Quinn muttered.

"And what is this?" He walked to the black looking thing.

"A TV"

"A what?" asked Gwaine walking to stand next to Merlin. "I have never seen something like this" He reached out and place a hand on top of the box.

"It's how you can watch things" Quinn explained. "That's how I knew about Merlin, here all of you are just story's, but. ."

Merlin looked at her, his breath hitched when he saw her smiling.

"I know now you all are very much real, and I am so glad for it, believe me, it's the best thing that's ever happened in my entire life. Now, I need to get you guys a change of clothes"

"What? Why?" Asked Arthur.

"This is my world Arthur, trust me, you don't want to be seen in your armor, people in my world won't understand"

"So you are saying it would be dangerous for the king to go around dressed as he is?" Asked Percival.

"Yes, yes! That is exactly what I'm saying" Quinn replied. "So I think it would be best if you all blended in"

"Alright" Arthur agreed "this is you're world after all, you know it better than we do"

"Wow" Exclaimed Quinn.

"What?" He asked.

"On the show you were such a jackass at the beginning"

"And now?" Arthur raised his eyebrows.

Quinn smiled. "You still are at time's, and a royal one at that"

Merlin and the others couldn't help but laugh. Quinn was right of course, he just would never tell Arthur that.

Arthur just rolled his eyes and muttered something that sounded suspiciously a lot like 'you and Merlin belong together'

Quinn turned, gesturing for Merlin to follow her.

It seemed that the time has finally come, after 19 years.

Quinn will fight against her destiny, there is no doubt about that, for she is just too stubborn for her own good.

But she shall soon realize that it isn't going to be as easy as she first thought, no matter who is accompanying her to help her, it doesn't matter, and she shall soon realize that. Some lessons must be learned the hard way. She will be the ruler of this world, no matter how hard Quinn may fight, her efforts will be in vain.

With love to all.
