A/N: *crickets* So. How 'bout that episode? Was anyone else thinking Lenny and George at a couple points? Yes? No? Who're Lenny and George? (Go read Of Mice and Men.) I'm so excited! My mom's taking me to see Les Mis tomorrow! SQUEE! Oh, and the finale's next week! AND I discovered that that'll be the day I post my 100th drabble. Completely. Un. Planned. I love it when stuff like that happens! Enjoy!

93. Tag 12 Outcast
This wasn't the first time that Camelot had fallen under siege. Wasn't even the first time it had been captured by the same person.
It was, however, the first time Arthur had run away from his kingdom. (Against his will, he would later argue.)
It was cowardly, weak, and completely against everything he stood for, even though to stay would mean certain death.
Now, he was on the run. An outlaw. Gathering a rebellion against his own blood for the second time in as many years.
Merlin was wrong. They did hate him. Hated him, and lusted for his power.
