Hey everyone sorry about the wait but I am giving you two chapters now, this one was a bit longer than expected but I hope you enjoy it anyway
Disclamier: I don't own MerlinRain beat down heavily in the forest, everything was soaked, the rain continued to beat relentlessly on Jessie too. He didn't mind the rain in fact in some ways he found it rather calming and in this case he needed calming, Jessie was a overall calm person he never panicked he always kept his cool under pressure but that was heard to do when you have the devil walking behind you. Jessie doubted it was actually the devil instead just a name that had been dubbed on it to make it sound more terrifying. It worked. Thankfully they had nearly reached their destination Jessie stopped and closed his eyes and sensed the powerful being ahead, he began judging their strength and rather annoyingly found that it eclipsed his own
" There ahead in that old castle " Jessie said, The Devil stepped in front of him, it was possessing Droom's body as it didn't have one of its own it could only posses beings of evil and Jessie was thankful that Lord Galron had it posses Droom and not him
" This is as far as I go " Jessie said, The Devil looked at him and smiled
" Scared Jessie? ". Jessie had never felt intimated by Droom but he felt it now.
" I have my orders, it's your job from here " Jessie answered, The Devil laughed Droom's laugh
" Fair enough " and it jumped down the hill towards the castle, Jessie watched him run towards it at freighting speed, he never knew Droom could run that fast. He closed his eyes again searching for that huge power.
" God help you " he said to it " You don't know what's coming for you Morgana "
" That's fantastic Oran! " Merlin said to his pupil as Oran made a small dragon from the flames, it began to fly and Oran laughed, it vanished soon after but Oran's smile remained
" That was incredible!" said Oran
" Your ability is coming along great Oran " Merlin said
" You think so? "
" Yeah definitely, you near twice as strong since we started " Merlin said, Oran laughed in delight. Maron watched them from further back she had been for the last week or so, she sat there with her legs and arm crossed always with a scowl on her face every time Merlin looked over to her, she would normally try to meditate which was something Merlin and Oran took great joy in making fun of but she did see Oran become much stronger in a short space of time which was something he couldn't have achieved if Merlin hadn't been teaching him so at the end of their training session Maron swallowed her pride and walked towards Merlin
" Merlin " she said, he spun around towards her after lifting the bag he carried
" Hi Maron " he said with his goofy smile
" I want to say " she began, she bit her lip and sighed
" Yes? " Merlin said
" I want to say I'm sorry " she managed to say
" Sorry I didn't hear that " Merlin said
" Don't push it! " she said, Merlin's smile grew, she rolled her eyes and said " You have trained Oran really well "
" Better than you could? "
" I didn't say that " she said " But he has gotten a lot stronger and if it's alright with you I would like to train with you "
" Sorry my hearing must be gone I didn't hear that either "
" Merlin! " snapped Maron
" Couldn't resist " said Merlin " That's fine, course you can train with us I'm surprised it took you so long to ask actually " he said, Maron held her tounge as Oran came over to the two
" Guess what Oran looks like your sister has decided to join us " Merlin said, Oran's face lit up
" Really? " he said full of excitement, Merlin nodded and Oran ran and hugged his sister cheering in delight, Maron smiled and hugged her younger brother just as rain began to fall from the sky, the three ran for shelter under the canopy of trees, there then was a roll of thunder and then a flash of lighting in the distance
" Wow " said Oran but Merlin and Maron weren't so sure that the lighting was genuine, something was wrong.
Morgana was in the ruins of her castle when it had arrived, she had two guards at the door but they were soon killed, it walked into the castle searching for the high priestess. Morgana sensed something coming earlier in the day but had dismissed it she thought it was nothing just her imagination, that was until she sensed it again only minutes before when it had arrived. She walked through the castle until she found it
" Who are you?! " she demanded, what she saw was Droom but it wasn't Droom, she didn't know or understand the evil and power that was inside. The Devil smiled.
" What are you smiling about?!" Morgana said " Do you have any idea who I am you will answer me!". Again he didn't speak instead he began to slowly walk towards Morgana
" Alright then I#ll just make you tell me! " Morgana's eyes glowed, her magic caused the roof above The Devil fall down on top of it. When the dust cleared there was just a pile of rubble lying in front of Morgana
" Fool should have known better " said Morgana turning her back to it but a small piece of the rubble broke away, it caught her eye and she turned around to see the rubble being pushed away and The Devil in Droom's body walking out unharmed
" What? How " said Morgana but The Devil had enough games at this point and had grown at how weak Droom was, it needed a new host and the high priestess in front of it suited him nicely. A dark glow surrounded Droom, he opened his mouth and The Devils soul shot out at Morgana it collided with her and she fell to the floor screaming trying to push it away but it shot into her mouth and began to slide down her mouth, her body jerked on the ground as she tried to draw breath but then The Devil took over. Droom collapsed to the ground as The Devil stood up looking at its new body, it began to laugh and laugh at the power it now had. Lighting struck as it raised its hand to the sky and was an inhuman scream it gave the world a glimpse of its power as the storm brew.
Jessie watched the lighting strike around the ruined castle which The Devil had entered it had clearly completed it's mission and gotten its new host as the power was enormous.
" Holy Fuck " breathed Jessie as it felt its power he actually began to sweat when he felt the power the monster was generating " This is insane " he said to himself as the storm began to attack the ground below, he looked through the rain to see The Devil in Morgana's body now standing on top of the castle laughing in the rain
" This thing truly is The Devil. I hope Lord Galron knows what he's doing " said Jessie as lighting struck again lighting up the area " Or we could all be in trouble"
Gaius stood watching out the window at the sudden storm of rain, lighting hit in the distance as thunder rang out over Camelot, he felt something was wrong no storm like that just appears he had also felt something, something was wrong. Just then Merlin, Maron and Oran came crashing through the door all soaked
" Where were you? " Gaius asked
" Training " replied Merlin
" How did it go? " Gaius asked
" Really good, Oran is coming along great and Maron has finally agreed to join us " Merlin said, Maron glared at him but he didn't see it
" That's great " said Gaius as another strike of lighting flashed outside. " Merlin can I speak with you for a moment ". Maron looked between Gaius and Merlin before saying
" Come on Oran we'll go get dried up " she said and led the young dragonlord away.
" What's up Gaius? " asked Merlin. The older man looked out the window again with a worried expression on his face
" What do you think of the storm?" he asked the warlock
" What do you mean?" Merlin asked in confusion, Gaius looked behind him to make sure Maron and Oran weren't listening
" I'm worried Merlin " Gaius said " That storm isn't natural something terrible has happened ", Merlin now walked towards the window to study the storm outside another flash of lighting lit up Camelot in a freighting way
" I think your right " Merlin said looking back at Gaius " You think it's Galron?" Gaius nodded, Merlin looked back outside remembering the evil he felt when the storm had first struck. " What are we going to do then? "
" We can only hope that when he appears you are ready to defeat him" Gaius said
" So that's it? " said a voice they turned around to see Maron standing watching them " We just wait until he shows up that's suicidal"
" What else are we meant to do Maron?" asked Gaius
" We go and fight him!" she said walking towards them " We have to stop him before he finished whatever he's planning". Merlin looked at her then at Gaius
" What about the East King?" asked Merlin " You said he created the spell that sealed Galron away the first time what if we find him again"
" I wouldn't know the first place to look Merlin" Gaius said " The East King was supposed to be a legend the story of Demon King Galron was"
" Well it's clearly not" said Maron " And if you two aren't going to do anything about Galron then maybe I should!" she shouted walking towards the door
" Where are you going?" asked Gaius
" To find this East King"
" Maron don't be so foolish" said Gaius " Surely the best thing for you to do now is to continue your training with Merlin until the time comes to face Galron" Gaius said to the girl, she clenched her fist and looked at Merlin then back to Gaius
" I was Droom's prisoner for months! " she said " He moves his victims around and I know where he is going to be surely if we found him we can find Galron". Gaius and Merlin looked at each other considering her request, she looked between them thinking that they weren't going to agree to it and was about to launch another argument but Gaius said
" Alright " he walked back to the chair and sat down " But please be careful"
