I do not own Merlin. This Chapter is in Arthur's Point Of View. Thank you for reviewing it means so much to me ^_^
Finding Out What Happened To Merlin And Gwen
By waterrain
"They were going in the wrong direction and I told them that Camelot lays West not East. They told me that Lamia asked that they take her home. When I told them that we need to get Gaius they said that Gaius could wait. I asked them what about Longstead and their lives depend on us." Merlin calmly informed me. "The reaction I received from my words was not violent."
"How did they reply, Merlin." I said calmly and he looked at me.
"Well, Sire. Leon had said that you dare question our judgment. Leon basically told me that I'm nothing just a Servant. That I'm not a Knight or even a Physician which is true. Gwen said to them please listen Merlin is right we have to, but before she could go on her brother told her to stay out of it Gwen and it is none of your business. Then after a while Leon and Gwaine fought each other."
"Merlin, I barely understood a word you said to me. You were talking too fast and I know you are doing this on purpose." I stated firmly and he stared at me. "And what is this about Leon and Gwaine fighting each other? I have not heard about it."
"You can pretend to be me for a moment while I pretend to be Leon."
"What?" I asked in a confused voice for why am I pretending that he is Leon, but more importantly why am I suppose to be pretending that I'm Merlin? It does not make much sense to me.
"You dare to question our judgment? You are not a Knight. You are not even a Physician. Your nothing, but a Servant. That was how Leon replied back to me. It is true that I'm not a Knight or a Physician and I'm just a mere serva-"
"Shut up, Merlin. You are not just a mere servant. You are my manservant so you are not just a servant." I stated firmly and my arms are crossed.
"What is the difference? I'm still a servant."
"Merlin, I only have one manservant and that is you. So you are not a mere servant and if I hear you call yourself just a mere servant. I will sentence you to clean the entire castle unaided." I informed him, his jaw practically dropped, and his eyes are wide in disbelief. I find Merlin to be more than a manservant, but I mainly tell him that in life or death situation.
"What? Are you serious, Arthur? The entire castle?" Merlin asked slowly and I nodded my head at him.
"Yes and you would have twenty hours to get it done. If anyone else calls you a mere servant just let me know about it. My skin is starting to wrinkle slightly Merlin."
"Why not get out of the bath?" He asked me, I looked at him, and his arms were crossed.
"Because I said that I would stay here." I informed him and Merlin has an amused smile on his lips.
"Originally you said that you would stand up naked."
"Shut up, Merlin." I groaned for why must he be such a smart ass at times?
"Gladly, Sire."
"Just go on." I commented firmly and got out of the tub. The water was getting too cold for me. "I'm the King. So I can change my mind, but regardless you will not leave my chambers until I get the information that I want out of you."
"Want a towel to cover yourself?"
"Stop getting off topic it is annoying me."
"Pretend I'm Gwen and she is talking to the Knights. Please listen Merlin is right we have to get back to. Those were her exact words."
"How did the Knights reply to her?"
"Pretend I'm Gwen's brother. Stay out of this Gwen. It is none of your business. Those were his exact words. They used words and didn't use violence at that point of time."
"Now tell me about Leon and Gwaine fighting each other. How did that exactly occur?" I asked him. I'm in control of my emotions and remaining calm. I'm a bit annoyed at my Knights for being rude to Merlin and Gwen. Yes my Knights were under a spell, but that does not reduce my slight irritation towards them. So far Leon had been rather rude to Merlin. Elyan had been a bit rude to Gwen.
