Back to Merlin's head.

We will visit Merlin's head a bit regularly at the moment.

Sorry for the short chapter.

Enjoy :)


Magic

Merlin watched as his evil counterpart came back.

"I would have thought that you would have left." The evil one said with a smirk. "Want to be beaten again?"

Merlin just looked up at him. "No just thought I would make it fair." He wasn't really. He was just to busy thinking.

Evil Merlin carried on smiling. "See that's the trouble with good people. They always want to make it fair when they know that the evil ones will cheat."

"Do you think Alator will tell her?" Merlin said after a while.

Evil Merlin looked down at him. "Emrys is scared of her."

"I am not scared of her." Merlin said standing up. "You have my thoughts, my feelings. You know that it would kill her if she found out that we are Emrys. She is happier now as she thinks that we are on her side. Can't we just let her be happy?"

"But see you are though. I can see it now. Why are you scared of her?"

Merlin backed down slightly. "I am not scared of her. I am scared of what she will do. She is more powerful than me and that scares me. I am meant to be her doom. How can her doom be weaker than her?"

"You got weaker right." The other Merlin muttered under his breath.

Merlin ignored that comment. "I can allow her to find out about my magic but not that I am Emrys. She will shut me out completely if she knows I am Emrys."

"You follow your heart too much Merlin. As the dragon says, you try and see the good in people."

They both turned to a wave of energy going through them. Both of them didn't think and ran as fast as they could.

Merlin looked over at his other self. He knew that they would match stride for stride as they were the same person but this evil side seem to be slightly faster.

See the good in people Merlin. Try and make Morgana happy. If you cannot go back to your original self then try and make it so that you can save Arthur.

Then another wave of thoughts when through his head.

I will tell Morgana. She needs to know. Maybe as she knows I am on her side then she will have lost an enemy without killing them.

Merlin shot a spell at him.

The evil Merlin flew into a tree and collapsed.

That will keep him away from now. Merlin thought, smiling.

Merlin could feel the power that came off the light. Every time he knew that he was remembering more but would knowing that he is Emrys be the turning point in remembering everything.

He still had his destiny to protect Arthur. He would just have to be sneaky about it as he would have to do it under Morgana's nose.

Merlin slowed down slightly. She may have slapped him but she was very forgiving. She even lent on his shoulder. She had brought him into the hug that they had.

Merlin stopped.

All this time, all the betrayal towards him. Was it because she felt the same?

Merlin never thought that she felt the same way as he did about her. She couldn't, as Arthur said Uther would have his head just for have feelings for her. If they had a relationship they would have killed him if they found out.

No she was treating me nice because I didn't treat her like a monster when she found out her magic.

But once his magic is revealed to her, she would be angry that he didn't tell her.

For Merlin there was no winning this situation. Morgana could never be happy due to his secret betrayal for not tell her about his magic.

It's not that he didn't want to, he just knew better than to try and stop destiny. But sending her to the druids only strengthened her heart against Uther because of what he did to them.

Merlin wished he could turn back to clock and change nearly everything that he had done.

He would fix his mistakes with Morgana. Maybe they would have a relationship like Gwen and Arthur's.

Merlin hoped that the day when Arthur looks at him with betrayal would never come but as he was slowly coming under the Forromah's influence, he feared it more and more.

He just hoped that Agravaine would be the first to be found out.

He had Arthur's creepy uncle and the way he looked at Morgana made him want to rip his head off.

Merlin shook his head. He wasn't a murder, that was Morgana.

"Oh but Merlin you are. What of Mary Collins? Edwin? Even poor dear Freya's death can be blamed on you."

Merlin turned around.

"Clever trick there. Shows that you do listen to Arthur sometimes." He said with a smirk.

Merlin just darted off. He couldn't allow him to win. He just ran into the light and allowed it to take him over.

The Evil Merlin cursed. "Don't worry Merlin. You will come around to my way of thinking soon enough. There is enough poison for the both of us."

He smirked then ran back into the forest. The fog had risen so much due to Alator telling the shell that he was Emrys.

Merlin may be in control of the shell for now.

The evil Merlin stopped and the eyes when black as the poison consumed him.

This deep voice came from the body. "So Merlin you want to be a man of love. Then I will allow you to love. You will protect Morgana at any costs as you are the only one allowed to love her. Let's see you try and protect Arthur when he has a sword pointed at your mate's throat."

The poison knew that Merlin was strong, not only magically but was strong willed.

"Think of the empire they will have together. Albion will be made in blood and magic. Time to avenge Uther Pendragon, his son and all the others that followed him into the dark ages."

The poison left the body temporary causing it to faint.
