Merlin could only stare at the boy in total disbelief

" How are you a Dragonlord? " he asked

" My father was a Dragonlord " the boy explained " My sister said that I'm the last one since my father and brother died ".

" I thought I was the last one " said Merlin.

" Can you help my sister? " he boy asked again, Merlin nodded

" Let me see " he said, the boy moved aside so Merlin coud kneel beside her

" What happened to her? " asked Merlin

" We were attacked, they were trying to kill us and my sister had a sword stabbed through her chest " the boy said, Merlin's eyes glowed as he trailed his hand over the wound hoping the magic would have some effect

" Who was chasing you? " asked Merlin

" The same guy who killed my brother, he's called Lord Droom and he has these dead knight things " he explained to Merlin

" What?! " said Merlin " Dead knights? ", the boy nodded

" They only come back to life at night but that's what Droom does he brings back the dead " the boy explained, Merlin said nothing for a moment as he concentrated on healing the girl.

" What's your name? " Merlin then asked

" I'm Oran " said the boy " This is my sister Maron ".

" I'm Merlin ". Merlin finished using his magic and stood up " That should help her for a while but we have to get her to Camelot "

" Camelot are you crazy?! " said Oran " Maron will go mad she says were not allowed anywhere near Camelot! "

" It's OK " Merlin said " The court physician Gaius will help her trust me ", Oran bit his lip and looked down at his sister then nodded

" OK " Oran said

" Great we just have to get her over to Arthur he'll help us get her there " Merlin said, Orans eyes widened in shock

" Your not talking about King Arthur are you?! " Oran shouted, Merlin nodded

" We have too "

" No way Maron will flip, it's bad enough were going to Camelot but she definitely said don't go near the king " Oran said in a blind panic

" It's OK " Merlin said again " He hasn't done anything to me and I'm his servant, he just doesn't know that I have magic we just say the same about the two of you, keep your magic hidden and you'll be OK " Merlin said assuring Oran " Trust me ". Oran smiled and nodded, Merlin lifted Maron gently and carried her away with Oran following

" It's going to be OK sis " he said.

Droom was really panicking now, he had lost Oran and Maron! He looked up at the sky, although the sun was setting it was still take a while to get dark, to long for the dead knights to rise and help him find Oran and Maron.

" If I don't find these two them Galron is going to kill me " Droom said

" That he might " said a voice, Droom cursed and turned around, Jessie was there leaning against a tree behind him with a grin on his face

" Jessie! " said Droom

" Why is Master Galron going to kill you Droom? " asked Jessie smiling

" I've lost the two of them " said Droom. He hated admitting that to someone like Jessie but he needed help. Jessie laughed

" What did they outrun you? " mocked Jessie patting Drooms stomach, Droom swiped Jessies hand away

" Listen Master Galron is going to kill me Jessie help me find them please " begged Droom

" What and miss that show? " said Jessie " I'd love to see Galron get his hands around your chubby neck "

" Please Jessie I need help "

" What's in it for me? " asked Jessie

" Money, Jessie if that's what you want then you can have it, just please help me " Droom pleaded, Jessie smiled and said

" I just want you in my debt Droom, once I need a favour I expect you to help me! " Jessie snapped

" Yes of course just help me now! "

" But of course " Jessie stepped forward and closed his eyes trying to feel the presence of the two in the forest, it took him a minute but he found them

" They're moving towards Camelot there's someone with them however and I can't tell who it is " Jessie said, he kept his eyes closed and concentrated harder, Jessie could normally sense anyone on the other side of the planet and could tell everything about them even if he hadn't met them before. That was his ability, he knew his opponents strengths and weakness before he even went into battle, that's why Jessie always wins, they only reason he serves under Galron is because he could never find a weakness in his master. Jessie's eyes then shot open, his eyes wide with what seemed like fear.

" It's... It's impossible! " he said, Droom was scared now too, he had never seen Jessie like this

" W-what is it Jessie? " asked Droom

" They're with another Dragonlord but this one is different from the others, his power is incredible and I only caught a snippet of it! " Jessie said

" How can a dragonlord be that powerful? " Droom asked, sure dragonlords were powerful, Droom knew that but he had never saw Jessie as scared about one as this

" This one isn't just a dragonlord... It can't be him, he's just a stupid druid legend " muttered Jessie " Come on they're riding towards Camelot, I have to get a better look at him! "

" But, Jessie is it wise to go after them especially if this guy is as strong as you think? " Droom questioned

" Stop being such a coward you idiot now grow some balls and come on! " said Jessie and he started to run through the forest towards them.
