I walk into the room delivering the kings lunch when i see all the knights around Arthur's desk whispering suspiciously.

"Whats going on?" i questioned walking closer and setting the plate of food on the table.

Arthur sighed a bit over dramatically "Gwain didn't come back from patrol yesterday so Leon and Percival went to look for him Percival spotted him and when they were going to get him bandits attacked and took him. One stabbed Leon right in the chest."

Merlin looked around and noticed the absence of the drunken knight then he turned to Leon who looked quite alive and uninjured.

Leon noticing the look of doubt in his gaze spoke softly,"A druid man healed me.", he seemed in a state of shock.

"Arthur wants to lock him in the dungeon." Eylan spoke sending a glare to the king.

"I do not. It just a safety precaution this is the third time Leon has been miraculously saved by magic and not know why."

"Arthur you seriously can't be thinking straight Leon is one of your most loyal knights are you really going to arrest him?"

"LEON IS NOT UNDER ARREST! Now Merlin i need you to wash my laundry, clean my room, and sattle up the horses we will be heading to the border were Gwaine was seen last and track him from there."

Merlin nodded looked at Leon sadly then started tidying the prats chambers.

"Leon." Arthur said and signaled him and the others (excluding Merlin) to follow.

As Gwaine was the last to quietly sneak into the armory or their 'base' as they were now calling it, Percival did a final check out for Merlin. Once it was confirmed that he wasn't in hearing distance, he paid the servants that had kept Merlin away, and slipped in after Gwain. For all his bulk, height, and weight he was surprisingly stealthy. Percival sighed as he did so; he was not a man to bribe, but Gwaine had said "It's not bribing, it's encouraging with money."
Yeah right, he thought to himself as he took his place on the... floor with everyone else.

"Leon, why do we have to be on the floor?" Gwaine whined as he shifted on the floor, desperately trying to find a comfy spot, well as comfortable as someone could be on the floor. "Gwaine, if Merlin can sit in the floor for hours on end, I'm sure you can too. In fact, if I remember correctly, didn't you and Merlin spend 6 hours on the hall floor when you first came to Camelot?" Leon teased as Gwaine finally stopped moving. "Shut up." Gwaine muttered to nobody in particular.
"Okay, now that Gwaine has FINALLY shut up, we can get onto why we're here..."
"We are here to prank Merlin, Princess?"
"Yes, Gwaine. So far we're pranking Merlin, which reminds me, Gwaine you need to stay out of sight. However, we need to do another prank that well make him run right back to Gaius. Any ideas?"
"Are we still doing scare pranks, or are we doing more... non-scare pranks?" Eylan asked, not quite sure.
"I think, if everyone agrees, we should still do scare pranks, because it's Samhain's Eve and you are meant to scare people." Leon replied, as everyone muttered in agreement, causing the silence to shatter.

Half an hour later they still haven't come up with anything. "Come on Gwaine, your supposed to be the prankster here! Why can't you think of anything?" Elyan groaned as he shifted once again to avoid the cramp setting in his limbs from being so inactive. "I'm trying! So far everything I've thought of is either 'too dangerous', 'too cliche' or 'too scare-y'. How can it be too scare-y? It's Samhain's Eve for gods sake!"
"Gwaine I think attaching a long rope around Elyan and then having him jump of the tower saying 'Merlin this is all your fault, why did you have to let Arthur steal Gwen from you.' is a bit too much." Leon replied to him, shaking his head in exasperation. "Plus, I don't really want to jump of the tallest tower while shouting a load of horse dung- which they won't hear anyway. I quite like not being a splat on the floor." Elyan swiftly added in as well. "Why not? It's perfectly safe, I've done it bef..." Gwaine trailed off, as he looked at all of the death stares he was getting. Arthur sighed and shook his head, "That would be stupid I mean Gwen was never Merlin's... Right?" Arthur looked at Gwaine with uncertainty.

There was a small silence before Percival spoke,"Why don't we..." Percival said, as everyone jumped at his voice surprised that he was saying something. "Percival that's brilliant, you should talk more often..." Elyan replied. Everyone else nodded in agreement.

Suddenly they heard footsteps nearing the room. Quickly getting up, they grabbed their swords to make it look like they'd been in here polishing them, hoping no one would remember that was Merlin's job. Gwaine and Arthur ran and hid in the small room. Stumbling in un-announced Merlin rushed in shouting, "Where have you been?! I've been looking every where- isn't that my job?- we need to go and find Gwaine! The horses are ready outside, Have you guys seen Arthur."

"Sorry mate, we're coming." Eylan called as they quickly grabbed their swords and their secret pranking equipment. "So Old-mans hill top first right too bad Leon is going to miss this." Elyan loudly said hoping Gwiane would hear. "Yep, that's right. Come on the prat and Apple-Boy are waiting- well Apple-Boy's probably unconscious, but you know what I mean." Merlin shouted from halfway across the room. As they quickly ran and saddled their horses, Arthur saw a fleeting glance of a long haired man in ripped 'bloody' clothes, riding out, just entering the forest on Old-Mans hill. Say what you want, but Arthur had good sight. Smirking slightly, Arthur set off, the knights and Merlin following.

The Knights, Arthur, and Merlin finally made it to Old-Mans hill, and Merlin had to admit that the knights were acting a bit weird they were whispering suspiciously when ever they thought he wouldn't notice then when he tried going closer to over hear what they were saying they quieted down and kept going trying to pretend like nothing happened. The knights were about to give the signal for Gwaine to come out ,but first they needed to do the prank Percival insisted. Merlin thought Leon did not go on the mission because he was with Gaius being checked for any signs of enchantments; but really he was a few feet behind them dressed as one of Morgana's men waiting for his own signal.

A/N the next chapter will hopefully be sooner and will contain Percival's Prank involving Leon and Apple Boy
