Sorry for the wait

I realised that in my last chapter that my scene dividers seemed to have vanished to which i apologize since it was probably an arse to follow.

Enjoy!

The forest was quite as the boys quickly made their way through it, Merlin leading.

"You're a Sorcerer." It was an obvious statement, but a needed one. For Arthur anyway.

Merlin chuckled slightly, "Warlock not Sorcerer." Feeling the others confused gaze he went on, "I was born with Magic. I didn't exactly have a choice in the matter. And I still don't know your name."

Arthur stayed silent as he thought over Merlin's words. All his life he had been repeatedly told magic is evil. If you know of magic you are evil, if you see magic and fail to report it, you're evil. But would that still occur for someone like Merlin? Out of the corner of his eye Arthur had seen Merlin stumble more than once, minus the fact he is an efficient killer, he had an innocent sense to him, almost like he was untouchable. Studying the boys, Merlin's, features, Arthur concluded that only a fool would say that he wasn't beautiful. The contrast of the pale skin that glowed in comparison to the raven black hair was striking, let-alone the detail in his face that seemed to mesmerize Arthur. From the high angular cheekbones to the large sapphire orbs that glowed gold when magic was used. The boy seemed angelic, almost fragile. As if he would shatter if touched.

"You're staring." Merlin commented with an adjoining flush, not even looking at Arthur as he pushed forwards.

Cheeks tinged pink, Arthur asked, "Who were those men?"

Merlin paused before answering, "How comes you can ask a question and I can't?"

"Because you're an idiot."

"Prat."

"Imbecile."

"That's the same as idiot, dollop head."

Arthur turned to Merlin with a look of indignation, "Do you have any idea who I am."

Merlin looked at Arthur like he was crazy, "Why would I keep asking you your name, bloody Prat."

Cocking his head to the side Merlin studied Arthur, taking in his golden blond hair, his light sparkling blue eyes, his sun-kissed skin to his deep blood red shirt, made of an obviously expensive material. Both his boots and breeches were made of a smooth leather that seemed to hug his well-shaped arse perfectly. Now that he noticed it, Merlin couldn't look away from the two perfectly rounded globes.

"See something you like?"

Blushing, Merlin shrugged, "Maybe. You're a royal."

Eyes widening in mock-sock Arthur jibed, "Is that intelligence I sense! But really," His eyes flickered to the floating body behind them, "Who were those men?"

Silence fell over the boys as Merlin thought over his answer. "Do you know what a Sidhe is?" Arthur shook his head. "A Sidhe is, in their original form, look like blue Pixies, small with wings, they look completely harmless. However, they are far from it. There aggressive, intelligent and cruel. They only care for the survival of their own race; they wouldn't dare miss the chance of starting a war on other races. It doesn't exactly help that their size makes people assume their helpless."

"Are you telling me I was just attacked by blue pixies? I'm pretty sure that they were human size."

Merlin chuckled, "No. They weren't Sidhe. Though I'm not even sure they were real, let alone human. Sidhe are masters in enchantment, though they weren't Sidhe I'm sure that their leader is." Eyes darkening as he looked at Arthur, "Have you ever heard of Aulfric?" Another shake of blond hair. "Aulfric is a Sidhe who was cast out of Avalon around 13 years ago. I don't know why he was thrown out, but I know his punishment was that he and his daughter had to live the rest of their lives in human form with a mortal's life. Enraged, both he and his daughter went crazy, travelling, destroying any village that were in their path. As they were crossing into Cenred's Kingdom they came upon a small village. Their bloodshed had yet to begin; they were toying with the villagers, mocking them till a woman came up to them, demanding they leave. The daughter, Sophia, laughed in the woman's face and using her staff cut through her." Merlin's voice broke for a second, eye's going from watery to hard within seconds. "There were two children among the adults who witnessed this, both whom she thought of as her children, whilst one fell to the floor with her, sobbing, the other just stared at the female Sidhe before charging at her. Though the Sidhe are an ancient race, these two were not experienced in the human world; they didn't know what kind of magic people could possess. The young boy's eyes aglow with gold, he destroyed her. Not a hand raised, he just ran at her. The pure despair and rage of the boy ripped her, soul and body apart..."

Merlin took a deep breath before looking at Arthur whose face was blank, but his eyes were staring at Merlin with a sad sense of knowing in them. "What happened next?"

Blinking at the intensity of the Blonds stare, the Warlock finished," Aulfric ran. His powers couldn't match the young boys so it was all he could do. There have been rumours for the past few years that he had been building an army. He still wants revenge on the boy who killed his daughter so I guess it could be true. If it is the things that attacked you are his army in training."

Lost in thought Arthur didn't realise that Merlin had stopped walking until a hand pulled at his jacket, stopping him from walking into a wall of boulders. "We're here."

Arthur stopped next to Merlin, studying the moss coloured boulders that surrounded him. "We're where exactly?" Arthur asked, watching as Merlin carefully placed both of his knights down and approaching one of the smaller rocks and uttered, "Patefacio", and watching as the stone started shifting until a gap man shaped gap formed.

"Home." And with that, Merlin walked through the gap, now two levitating bodies and a gaping blond Prince following him.
