TADA! chapter three is up again!!!! enjoy! I'd like to thank everyone that reviewed!
As the courtiers and everyone began to clear from the room I just stood there, staring at Morgana. She had an evil look on her. Ohno! This can't be happening! This can't be happening! I'm only a little boy! I groaned in annoyance as Morgana flitted towards me.
"Is wittle Merwin scared?" Morgana said in a baby voice towards me, her arm outstretched to pinch my cheek.
"I'm not scared!" I spat at Morgana, swatting her arm away from his face.
"Well then, you won't mind if we update you absolute complete wardrobe!"
My face turned sour. Me and my big mouth... i thought...
"Come on Merlin! Let's go!" Morgana grabbed my armed and towed me towards the door, also grabbing Gwen who was standing obediantly beside the door.
SHOPPING
"Try this one on Merlin, try this one! Do you like the jacket? How about these shoes? What about this cape" that all I ever hear now. 'Merlin wear this, Merlin wear that'
I was in behind the curtain set up in the clothing shop. Also known as Morgana's second home.
"Hey Merlin, try on this outfit please. Me and Morgana picked it!" Gwen stuck her hand in the changing room. She handed me a black shirt and black pants.
"Um... Guys, don't you think this is a bit too... uh...depressing?" I asked, my voice muffled slightly as I was pulling the shirt over my head.
"Nonsense Merlin!" cried Morgana haugtily. "It'll make you beautiful blue eyes stand out!"
"Give us a shout when your done Merlin!" said Gwen. Women and there clothes. Why must they spend hours finding one outfit when the first dress looked very nice on them.
"I have new respect for you guys" I called, when I finally came out from behind the curtain. They gasped.
"What! what! did I remember to put my pants on?" I asked frantically.
"No, it's just that, you look... so good!" They both said in unison. Now I really wanted to see how I looked. I ran up to the mirror. I looked.. exactly the same only in black.
"I look the same.." I told them
They rolled their eyes at me. "Men..." they muttered.
"So... what are we doing next?" I asked. "We're done right?"
"No... it's haircut time!"
I groaned and fell down on the floor pouting.
HAIR TIME!
"No! Don't do this to me! I'm an innocent child! I'm innocent!" I wailed in my seat as Morgana's personal hairdresser began to snip at my hair. I looked down. Holy shit! There was tonnes of hair on the floor. This is not happening!
"Done Master Merlin!" said Fabio the hairdresser.
"Um... I'm no Master" I said embarassed.
"Ahh, don't worry Master Merlin! Atleast I'm not calling you king!" He laughed at his own joke.
'I don't get it!' I thought.
"Would you like to see your reflection?" He asked. Without waiting for my answer he spun me around.
"Huh..." I said. My hair was all choppy and spiked. (to me it would look kinda emo-ish and i kno some of u might not like that but I think that it would suit Merlin :P) It was black with some brown streaks in it. I never remembered him dying it! Wait... maybe that was the freaky paint thing he put on my head? He had cut me a a fringe that swooped down from one side to the other.
"Now I know it is not very... conservative but I think it would suit you and your personality of a strapping, young lad!"
I blushed.
Great now I was a whole new person isn't that splendid. Morgana and Gwen both muttered a quiet aw...
Now with the very... long... very tiring... very annoying makeover done, I was finally allowed to go do what I want. I ran out to the streets before Morgana could grab me and say... Merlin let's paint your nails or something shocking like that.
I walked down the street with my hands in my pocket. I ducked my head low so no one would notice me. I didn't want to be crowded around and be made a fuss out of. It was all going well until this old lady suddenly cried out
"Merlin? Is that you!" My eyes widened. To make matters worse, she had practically shouted it for everyone in the vicinity to hear her. "My you've changed!" Then everyone ran up to me grabbing my hair and my clothes.
"You look adorably merlin! wonderful! superb!"
"Would you like an apple Merlin? A growing boy like you would need his fruits!" Suddenly a rosy red apple was shoved in front of my face.
"Uh... thanks..." I muttered.
Eventually the crowd died out and I was still holding a random apple. I turned around to head back to the castle, but to do that I had to pass all those houses again. Whimpering in annoyance, I headed back through the streets.
"Merlin!" cried a lady I vaguely remembered on my duties with Gaius "Here's an apple for you to enjoy!" Abruptly I was handed another apple in one day.
"Merlin!" cried another lady, "Would you like another apple?" Another apple was given to me
"Merlin!" cried a third lady, "How about another lovely, rosy red apple!" Another stupid apple was given to me.
I looked forward and there was a long line of houses to the castle, each with a smiling women with her arms stetched out with an apple. Crap! How would I explain this to Gaius?
The next day...
Uther POV
It seems that the young boy Merlin had been getting a lot of attention and was gaining more ever since the very big makeover he had just got. I was staring out of my window where an interesting scene was unfolding. It appears that today, the young boy was being bombarded with peaches.
"Sire, would you like to take a break from your daydreams?" Gaius asked stepping from the shadows.
"Yes... that would be best," I replied holding back a laugh
"Relax your majesty, in the mean time, apple?" Gaius asked pulling out 4 red apples from his cloak.
And that's chapter 3! Next chapter, Arthur finally meets Merlin! Wonder how he'll react! and as always... please review!
ectetera!
