This is a Arthur / Guinevere Lancelot/OC Tristan/OC parings

Disclaimer:- I do not own King Arthur, the characters or the previous events of the movie. I do however own Kaiden, and this new plot… but not King Arthur's characters… if that makes any sense whatsoever… any way most of the credit goes to Jerry Bruckhimer and his fantastic crew, the rest of the credit goes to history

Chapter 6

The night seemed to drag on, after the meal everyone slowly began returning to their respective quarters and houses. Lancelot however found himself lingering outside on the balcony, the night was late and judging by the position of the moon it was soon to be early. He sighed rolling back his tired shoulders in an attempt to loosen them.

"I'm glad your still here." said the instantly recognisable voice of Arthur.

Lancelot turned acknowledging his friend. "Enjoyable night?" he asked, already knowing the answer to his question.

"Stressful." began Arthur, looking out at the same scenery Lancelot had only moments before. "I never knew it would be this hard."

Lancelot rose an eyebrow in clear amusement. "You mean juggling two women?" he asked with a smirk. "… because I'm sure most men would disagree with you there."

Arthur groaned, leaning against the railing. "Kaiden is a beautiful, strong woman… but I cannot marry her, my heart is already taken."

"Have you told her this?" asked Lancelot, glad that Arthur finally got what he needed off his chest.

"How can I? I am her betrothed; I marry her in less then five days." he exclaimed, holding his hands up in agitation. "I do not know her… I only know pieces of her life before she came here, I have learnt little of her personality… perhaps I haven't being paying enough attention…" his eyes gazed off over the country side, many thoughts running through his mind. Then his frustrated eyes fell back to Lancelot. "I told Guinevere I would find a way not to marry Kaiden."

Lancelot gave a sarcastic whistle. "Your gotten yourself stuck between a rock and a hard place my friend."

Arthur nodded. "Oh I am very aware of that."

"Do as what you see is best, I have not questioned your decisions in the past… … let me rephrase that... I try not to question your decisions." he said with a wide grin.

Arthur laughed clapping him on the back, "You are a good friend Lancelot, my life would have been a whole lot shorter if you hadn't questions at least half of my decisions." he said taking a few steps back from the railing. "Now good night, rest well." he said retreating through the balcony doors.

Lancelot grinned up at the night sky before turning around. He stopped short however as a figure blocked his path way. Tristan.

"What is it friend?" he asked, surprised by his sudden appearance.

Tristan looked to where Arthur's retreating form had been, then back to Lancelot. "She's can't be trusted." he said bluntly.

Lancelot frowned. "Who? Kaiden?"

Tristan nodded. "She's hiding something from us… I feel her uneasiness."

"She's probably worried about the wedding." Lancelot said idly, and then he looked at Tristan's serious, more serious than normal expression. "I'll keep an eye on her if that makes you happy." he said shrugging his shoulders.

Tristan nodded. "Two eyes Lancelot." he said gravely, turning and light footedly walked off in the opposite direction.

Lancelot sighed. "All this because of a women." he muttered, finally walking inside.

Kaiden slipped out of her gown and into comfortable sleep garments, tiredly falling into bed. Tonight hadn't gone as she had planned. In fact everything seemed to go wrong.

One. She had hoped Arthur would attempt to make more conversation with her, to get to know her better. But he hadn't.

Two. She wanted to form a connection with him, but ended forming one with a completely different person. If that was what she could call their brief moment together… 'it was a moment… a small amazing moment.' She mused. Than quickly shook her head of the thoughts.

And finally Three. Arthur seemed to have eyes for another woman. She wasn't dim-witted she saw his small discrete glances to the lady by the name of Guinevere. She's also saw all the condescending glanced shoot her way, there was something definably going on between the both of them. At least now she felt a little better for not being able to form a connection, but she still didn't like being lied to like this. She was a joke to Britannia, everyone else knew of his relationship except her… now they all waited for her breakdown and return home. But if they thought she'd breakdown they were sadly mistaken. She grinned to herself; she was going to stay here, she wasn't sure of her future with Arthur, but she wasn't going to give into the people's assumptions of her. She was too strong for that.

Two Days Later.

Kaiden leapt of her horse in frustration, Lancelot had been following her for two days now, every corner she took she could feel his presence behind her, even out on her daily ride she could hear his horses hooves off in the distance. He was trying to be discrete, and he was, but Kaiden had learnt to listen to things, like horse hooves and human steps long ago with her brothers. She had been trained with them, though neither her father nor any of the army knew it. That is where she snuck off to most nights with her brothers, they taught her how to defend herself with sword and bow, how to know if someone was tracking her… much like a certain someone was now.

As she leapt of her horse and hit the ground she could see Lancelot's horse about fifty meters behind her tied to a tree in the forest. He was nowhere in sight. She grinned to herself at his unguarded horse. Though she was certain he was somewhere close he wouldn't dare show himself unless he wanted to explain why he'd been following her.

Taking her horses reigns she led him through the thick forest to where the other horse was tied. Slowly she untied Lancelot's horses reigns and took them in her hands. "What are you doing so far out here?" she asked the horse loudly so Lancelot would hear her. She forced her chuckle down as she pattered the horse and led him away from where he'd been tied.

If he wanted to continue following her, she'd make it harder. Kaiden looked up at the stormy sky. It was only two miles to Hadrian's wall, if Lancelot ran, perhaps he could make it there before the downpour.
