I do not own Merlin. All rights go to BBC. But I do own Leashay and the rest of her ways.

A month later Leashay and Rownoch had traveled 500 miles north, passing through 2 kingdoms as they traveled. Leashay had hayed both. The first one was wet, it rained on them constantly. Leashay and Rownoch were used to the hot dry desert of Loonairous. The next one was cold freezing cold, it was a mountain range and it was winter, so lots of snow. So now they were in a kingdom that was perfect not too cold or hot but she did not know its name but only the capitol; Camalot. So this was where Leashay was decided she would stay, she simply needed to find work. "you don't need to be nervous my rider." Rownoch said telepathically. "I know… but we will stick out, I mean I'm a girl riding an elk for corns sake!" Leashay said. "We will be fine." He said. They came to the cities entrance, and Leashay was impressed, the great walls that surrounded it were had knights upon them. Leashay watched as the men looked at the twosome and one of them ran out into the city. Leashay and her ride got many looks as they rode up the crowded streets. Leashay could not help but think of her home land capitol; Rodia. The only thing was that Rodia was a city in the trees that surrounded a lake. As they rode farther in they caught sight of the castle, and Leashay had only one thought "that's where we will work." They rode into the court yard to be met by a group of people. There was a man that had a large cloke, she believed he was the king. Beside him was a boy with blond hair, behind him was a boy with black hair. There were others but Leashay only focused on the king.

Merlin watched as the elk came to a stop just in front of them; both rider and elk were clad in silver armor. Merlin could not tell who or what the rider was but he was shur It was a warrior of some kind. He looked at Arthur, who already had his hand on the hilt of his sword. "Who are you and what do you want?" Uther asked. Merlin watched as the warrior reached up and touched a spot on the chest plate. With a shing the armor retracted into the chest armor revealing a girl! Merlin was shocked the girl had blond hair and dark green eyes; she looked around Merlin's age. "I'm Leashay Starstriker Tigrean, warrior of the land of Loonairous, I come seeking a job." She said. Uther looked at her, "why do you come here? And what can you do that is any use of me?" "I did not like any of the other kingdoms and I can do many things that could be of used to you." She said looking at him. Merlin was impressed she had courage. "Such as?" Uther asked. "I am a warrior, so I can fight very well, back home I am one of our most skilled warriors. I'm skilled in 16 different fighting styles. I am also an animal trainer, I ca tame and train any animal. How else do you think I trained old Rownoch here." She said patting the elks armored neck. Merlin looked at the big elk, it was the largest elk he had ever seen, at least a foot larger than the average elk. With its armor it looked deadly. "I have no doubt that you are a skilled animal trainer, but if you don't mind I will test how good of a warrior you are." Uther said. Then two knights came around them, swords drawn and slowly moving towards the warrior. "I will fight, but I will not kill them, only disable them so they cannot fight back." She said as she swung off the elk. Merlin finally saw how short she was, she could not be taller than 5'2". She reached up and touched her armor and it all came out again, the helmet made her look like a wolf. "you say you are a warrior, but you have no sword."Uther said. " O I have a sword." She said. Merlin noticed that the gauntlets on her arms were larger and bulkier then most. Then Leashay hit a spot on her wrist and three, 3 foot long claws sprung out of the wrist guards. Merlin was shocked, he looked at everyone else. Arthur and Uther had shocked looks on their faces, Gaius looked like he was thinking, Morgana and Gwen looked scared. The knights began to move closer to Leashay who stood ready. Both knights lunged at her with their swords out, but Leashay simply jumped up and out of their reach landing a few feet away. One of the men dove at Leashay's feet but she moved to the side of him and pivoted on one foot bringing the other foot up and round house kicked him in the head, dropping him. The other one came at Leashay, sword raised and she met him in the air, her claws met his sword and they began to slash at one another. Leashay blocked all of them. Then his sword stabbed in between two of the claws, and then twisting her wrist she pulled the sword out of his hand and flinging it across that court yard. She held her claws at the man "do you give u?" she asked. The knight nodded his head. The other knight was out cold from her kick. Merlin was impressed; she had just taken out two of Uther's best knights. She truly was a skilled warrior. "Well Leashay you have proven yourself a skilled warrior. I am confident that you are a good trainer. You have earned yourself a job here at the castle; you are free to stay in the stables tonight if you wish. Now I am going to head in for the night." Uther said. Leashay bowed her head "Yes sir, thank you sir." She said. Merlin began to fallow Arthur and everyone in to the castle, "what do you think of her?" Merlin asked Arthur. "She is skilled….. And pretty" Arthur said. Merlin just shook his head.

Leashay led Rownoch into the stable "I take it that was weak sauce." Rownoch said. "I've never been in such an easy fight hhahahaha!" she said. She looked into one of the rooms; it was a tack room that had a pile of hay in it with an empty saddle rack. "This will work." She thought as she led Rownoch in. she began to take his saddle off and put it on the rack, than hitting a spot on his armor it all retracted in to the chest plate like Leashay's, then she took it off and put it with his saddle, then taking the blades off this antlers. She put them In a small bag. He shook then lay down in the hay, stretching his head out on the ground. Then she proceeded to take her armor and placed it with Rownoch's armor. She was simply dressed in a thin long sleeve buckskin shirt, with long fringe on the sleeves. She had buckskin pants that had fringe down the outside, along with moccasins that went up to her knees. She took her bags off her saddle, she had one bag that held the few personal items she brought, and the rest off her bags had things that she needed to survive, like herbs and food. She pulled out two blankets and walked over to were Rownoch lay. She placed one of the blankets on the ground and lied down on it, and leaned against Rownoch and placed her other blanket over herself. "Rownoch." She said. "Yes" he said. "I think we are going to like it here." She said. "I think you right" he said. Then they both fell asleep.
