Oh my gosh. I just watched season 4 episode 9 Lancelot De Luc and balled my eyes out. It is such a sad sad episode. I hate it, poor Arthur poor Guinevere. Ooo poor Arthur and Guinevere...

sorry I'm blabbing huh... enjoy the chapter :)


Uther Pendragon stared outside the window thinking of Arthur, his one and only son and heir. How could he have left with a serving girl? He gave up everything for her. Uther then thought about the memory 5 years when hen Arthur left the palace. That day haunted Uther forever.

5 years ago...

It started in the courtyard. Arthur had just came back from saving the dragon and Uther rushed down to his son to make sure he was alright. What he did not expect was for someone else to be embracing his son. Uther stood in shock as Morgana's old handmaiden Gwen he thought it was, was hugging his son.

He heard her utter the words that confused him, "I thought I lost you," she mumbled hugging herself to him. What was even more confusing was when Arthur hugged her back, nuzzling his face into her neck.

"You could never lose me," Arthur said softly holding her closer. He then kissed her on the forehead, and looked into her eyes. He gazed at her with somthing that Uther had never seen Arthur have before, love and affection.

"E-erm," Uther cleared his throat, glaring at the young couple with his arms crossed. Arthur looked up to see his father staring at him and Guinevere. Uther could see Arthur tense up and tighten his grip on the young girl. "Arthur, I need to speak with you NOW," Uther said his angry tone of authority.

"Yes father," Arthur said, meeting his father's gaze. He then kissed Guinevere again on the cheek and followed his father into the throne room. Uther told Arthur to go in first, and before Uther went him he turned to the guard telling his to get the girl and throw her in the dungeons, saying he would deal with her later. The guard nodded and closed the door behind Uther.

Uther then walked into the room to see his son pacing with his hand over his face and looking distressed. "Arthur James Pendragon, what are you thinking? Kissing a serving girl like that?" Uther yelled causing his son to stop in place. "A serving girl? Really Arthur," Uther said again watching his son closely.

Uther could tell that Arthur was on the verge of anger, holding something back that he knew that his son wanted to say. "Spit it out," Uther snapped.

"Father...I...um" Arthur began, hesitating. He then took a deep breath, "Father, I love Guinevere. I always have, always will and there is nothing you can do to say that," Arthur said finally meeting his father's eyes.

Uther studied his son looking at him before it clicked in his mind "Of course, I should have seen it. Why did I not see it, she has enchanted you and then brought the dragon here to take her revenge of Camelot. She then ordered you to battle it, and you nearly escaped with your life. She shall be arrested imediately," Uther said about to leave the room.

He then felt his son grab his shoulder, "No father, don't Guinevere is not a sorcerer. She is the most kindest a sweetest girl you will ever meet. I am in love with her, genuinely in love with her, I'm not enchanted or under a spell," Arthur said quickly.

Uther sighed and removed his son's hand from his shoulder, "Arthur, stay here and I will handle this." He then began to walk towards the dungeons. "Did you take her to the dungeons?" Uther said, stopping to speak with the guard walking towards him. He nodded, and went on his way.

"No father," Uther turnd to see Arthur running after him. "Don't you touch her," Arthur said standing in front of him blocking his path. "If you do anything to harm her..."

Uther then turned to the guards, "Take the prince to his rooms and dont let him out until I take care of this," they nodded taking hold of Arthur's arms.

"What! No father, you can't do this. Father I will never forgive you if you do anything to her, never. No!" Arthur began struggling as the guards pulled him to his chambers and out of sight, his voice echoing through the halls.

Uther then arrived at the cells, to see the girl silently sobbing into her hands on the floor. "Get up girl," Uther snapped. She then lifted her head standing up and not meeting the kings eyes. "You must leave Camelot by morning or you will be burnt to the stake for controlling the dragon and attempting to attack Camelot. Do not make me regret letting you leave alive."

He then left the girl crying in the cell and never saw her again. But he also never saw his son again, finding out that Arthur left with her in the middle of the night. Uther was devastated at the loss of his son and for a year he looked and searched for Arthur but there was no trace of him, so Uther just gave up. And to this day it still puzzled Uther why Arthur left for that serving girl...


...Creak, slam. Uther jumped at the sound of his door opening and closing. "Who's there? Because whoever you are, you should not be in the King's chambers...Arthur?" Uther turned around to see his son standing in the door way.

Arthur smiled slightly, seeing his father turn in his direction and uttering his name. "Hello father," Arthur said nodding to him.

"M-my son you have returned," Uther said shock in his voice as he rushed over to his son and embraced him into a big hug. "My son you have finally escaped the clutches of that witch. Oh I'm so happy your back," Uther said holding his son closer.

"Father," Arthur groaned, "Guinevere is not a witch and I was not under a spell. She and I love each other very much and are happily married."

Uther then pulled away, glaring at his son, "then why are you here if your are so happily married?" He said. Arthur flinched at the venom in his father's voice.

He then crossed his arms and began to pace the room. "Father please don't remind me how difficult my decision of leaving Guinevere was. I had to do it for the good of my family, they won't survive this next winter because of the living condition we have. That's why I've come back, to ask for your help to bring my family home. Guinevere is pregnant and very sick, and we are starving. So please father, I will get on my knees and beg if I have to," Arthur begged sitting on his knees.

Uther stared at his son, shocked to see him after 5 years. But he was even more stunned to see his son begging and pleading like this. He almost was swayed to allow his son to come home, he usually could never refuse Arthur anything but then he remembered that he left for 5 years without a word. "I'm sorry Arthur, but I can't allow that maid you seduced back into Camelot."

Arthur glared at his father expecting his reaction. Alright fine, time to introduce you to your grandchildren father, Arthur thought stepping closer to the door. "Father, I want to show you something," Arthur said changing his tone of voice into a softer tone. "You must promise not to do anything or cause any harm to them because if you do I will take them, leave and never return."

Uther puzzled as Arthur was still walking to the door. Them? Who is them that Arthur is talking about, Uther thought very confused at the entire situation of what was happening. He then took a step forward following his son, but hesitated when Arthur held up a hand to stop him.

Arthur then moved to open the door and two people walked into the room. Uther gaped at the two people, no...two kids that came into his chambers and they were no more then the age of 4 or 5 years old. The little girl was holding her Arthur's hand tightly standing close to his side and the little boy also had his other hand and was clinging to his leg as they made their way into the room. Arthur then took a deep breath, holding the children closer to him, "Father, meet your grandchildren Anna and Amhar Pendragon."


so what do you think of this chapter? Are you all satisfied with how they ran away? I did not go into a lot of detail because it was Uther's perspective but I wanted to get the memory of why they left on my fiction. I hope you (my readers) are satisfied with this chapter :)

now... Do you like the cliff hanger? I thought that would be the best place to end it. What will Uther say? How will he react? Will Amhar and Anna win over Uther? What does Arthur have to say about it? All will be revealed in the next chapter :) I hope you enjoyed this chapter!

Love, Arthurlover7
