Here is Chapter ten, Wow this story is longer than expected!
How will Arthur get out of this one?
Arthur dodged quickly, still reeling from his blow to the wall, the fire almost catching his legs.
This woman did not make sense, well she made it quite clear that she wanted to kill him, but other than that, she had just confused Arthur. This Emrys was a sorcerer who had protected him and now she had stolen his powers and was using them to kill and burn Camelot? Yup, no sense what so ever?
Weren't all sorcerers' evil? Moreover, if this Emrys was protecting him why didn't he know about it before?
Another curse, another flash of fire and Arthur's brain banished thoughts of Emrys and focused on trying to stay alive.
"You can run and dodge as much as you like dear Prince but it will be in vain. You will die," She laughed cruelly.
Suddenly she stopped a look of shock spreading across her face. She grasped at her cloak pulling out a glowing mirror. Arthur stared at it, he felt its energy pulling at him, it felt oddly familiar.
"No, No this is impossible! Your power is sealed! NO!." The sorceress screeched
Arthur took his chance while she was distracted and did the only thing that he could think of. He ran forward, swung his sword down and smashed the mirror.
Light exploded from the shards rippling through him yet leaving his flesh untouched, shielding his eyes, he heard the screams of the sorceress.
Then suddenly nothing, the light was gone, and so was she. Arthur was standing in an empty chamber. The fires had been put out and Arthur knew that Camelot would never face her blazing fury again.
Arthur knew he had been saved, and vowing never to tell his father the truth of his magical protector, left muttering three words.
"Thank you, Emrys"
(With Gaius)
Gaius was sitting by his wards bed, staring at his ward, contemplating the Dragons words, when a jolt passed through him, but passed in an instant.
Then from the bed, a groan shocked him out of his reverie
Merlin was awake.
Yay, He's alive.
Arthur thanks Emrys, so he thanks Merlin! even if he doesnt know it.
