Chapter One

Morgana Pendragon was not having a good day. A man had been beheaded for "practicing foul enchantments". Morgana could not understand how Uther could justify killing someone just because they practiced magic, the poor man had not hurt any one with it. It irked her to no end. Morgana proceeded to stomp up the stairs to her room in the castle. Upon entering she found a baby boy sitting innocently upon her bed with a piece of parchment next to him. The most interesting thing about this boy was the fact that his eyes, a beautiful Emerald green, mirrored her own. Without a second thought Morgana reached down a picked up the piece of parchment sitting next to the child.

Hello,
I know not to whom I'm writing, all I know is they're a family member of mine with magic.

My name is Lily Potter, and the child who had this note is Harry Potter, my son.

If you're reading this then I am dead and you are the best chance for my son to have a happy childhood. I implore you… If you have any love in your heart please take in my child.
Sincerely, Lily Potter.

Morgana stared at the letter in shock, whoever this Lily Potter woman was a witch and said Morgana was one as well… Moreover, her son was sitting innocently on her bed and he needed a place to live and a family to love him. Morgana had seen too many innocent people die because of Uther's hatred of magic. Morgana didn't understand how something that could be used to save a child from a horrible childhood could be evil… Actually, she did see it. Just as a tool such as a hammer can be used for torturing, killing, and other evils so could magic. She supposed it all came down to who was wielding the magic. Morgana swore to herself that she would not let this boy be killed by Uther's hatred nor would he fear the kingdom he lived in. Morgana picked up the child, and with Lily Potter's letter in hand, marched down to Gaius' chambers to speak with him.

Upon reaching the room, Morgana knocked twice and entered when Gaius gave her the okay. "Pardon my intrusion, Gaius, but I didn't know where else to go." Morgana said stepping into the room. She adjusted the baby on her hip and looked around the room at Gaius' knick-knacks. All dedicated to the pursuit of science and curing illnesses. 'A noble profession.' Morgana thought to herself while waiting for Gaius to finish what he was doing.

"My dear child, you're never an intrusion… So what troubles you, dear?" Gaius asked while turning around. What he saw when he turned around nearly made his heart stop. Gaius' mouth opened and his face seemed frozen in shock for a few moments. "Morgana, where did you get that child?" Gaius asked as his motor skills finally returned to normal. He took the child from her arms and proceeded to check him over while he waited for Morgana's answer.

"I went back to my room after the execution and found him on my bed. With this letter." Morgana said to Gaius. When Gaius reached for the letter, Morgana pulled it away and said to Gaius, with fear in her eyes. "Gaius, what is said in this letter stays in this letter. No matter what. Promise me that." Morgana kept staring into Gaius' eyes waiting for him to reply. Depending on his reply she would either leave without giving him the letter or she would have an ally in raising this child as her own.

"Yes, child, I promise you on my life." Gaius said. Again, he reached for the letter and Morgana let him have it and took Harry back from him. Gaius read over the letter and was shocked for the second time that day. "What I feared is true…" Gaius simply said after he recovered from his shock. Morgana narrowed her eyes at him and motioned for him to continue explaining, he did as she asked. "Morgana, forgive me, I didn't want you to be frightened of Uther… But I have always suspected you may have magic. Your nightmares aren't always just nightmares… You have the gift of the Seer. Your dreams sometimes show you the future." Gaius explained, Morgana went to open her mouth but Gaius motioned for her to wait for him to finish speaking before she started with her questions. "Not all people with the gift of the Sight have magic, so I had hoped against hope that you wouldn't, but I couldn't tell you or Uther what your dreams were because the word 'Seer' is too close to 'Magic' for Uther's liking. I hope you can forgive me, child."

Morgana was furious. How dare Gaius keep this from her? How dare he decide what was appropriate for her to know about herself! The more she turned his words over in her head, however, the more the anger left her. Gaius was right. Uther would've had her executed simply because of something she was born with. Gaius had done so much to protect her and keep her safe. What right did she have to be angry with him? Morgana looked at Gaius, smiled, and said to him, "You're forgiven Gaius, but please don't keep stuff like this from me in the future. I'm old enough to know what I can and can't tell Uther." Gaius' eyes widened and he smiled at her and nodded. "Good, now how are we going to explain this child Gaius? We can't say that he simply appeared on my bed." Morgana said.

"So you do intend to keep the child then?" Gaius inquired curiously. Morgana simply nodded at his question and so Gaius went on to say. "Well we could always pass him off as your own, My Lady. He looks an awful lot like you." Morgana's eyes widened in shock and she looked worried.

"But Gaius, I have never had- That is to say, I've never…" Morgana was freaking out and blushing all over the place in response to Gaius' suggestion. Gaius merely laughed at her panic.

"I know that, My Lady. Or rather, I know that now." Gaius said. Morgana narrowed her eyes at him and so Gaius quickly went on to explain, "Not that your virtue was ever in doubt, dear girl. It's simply that Uther doesn't have to know that. You will have to mar your good name if you want a reasonable way to keep this child." Gaius said.

Morgana nodded at Gaius and said "All right Gaius, but how will we explain the hidden pregnancy?" Morgana was worried if the explanation wasn't perfect that Uther would refuse to let her keep the child.

Gaius sensed Morgana's worry and simply smiled at her. "Not to worry, my dear… I believe there was that time about a year ago where you gained quite a bit of weight and took to wearing overly-large dresses to hide it?" Gaius asked. Morgana nodded at him and, she adjusted Harry on her hip again because the little child kept trying to wriggle out of her arms, looked at Gaius curiously. "Well then we can use that time as your pregnancy. It would explain the sudden weight gain and loss and it was the perfect time range for this child." Gaius explained to her.

Morgana smiled and nodded. "That's perfect Gaius! Now we need to plan when to tell him and I need to learn how to use my magic in secret. You'll help me with that, won't you Gaius?" Morgana asked with a smile. Gaius simply shook his head at her and turned away.

"I'm afraid I can't help you learn magic Morgana, I swore it off long ago. That doesn't mean, however, there is no one to help you learn. I may have a friend who can help you." Gaius said to Morgana, upset he couldn't help her but also not willing to break his oath to Uther to never use magic again. Gaius debated having Merlin teach her or having someone else but decided he would have to use Merlin, it wouldn't make sense for it to be anyone else. No one else with magic was constantly in the castle.

"Who Gaius?" Morgana asked, staring at Gaius curiously. Harry started making a fuss and so she cradled him in her arms and started crooning at him. "There, there child. It's okay… Shhh…" Gaius smiled at the sight of Morgana, already acting as the mother of the child. Soon enough, because of the crooning and swaying Morgana was doing, Harry fell asleep in her arms.

Gaius looked at the time and was shocked. "Morgana, I think it's high time you returned to your room for the night. I'll have Merlin bring a bassinet to your room for the child after you leave." Gaius hugged her and whispered into her ear. "Merlin will also be the one to teach you how to use your magic, my dear." Gaius let go of her and smiled. "Now off you go, to bed." Morgana smiled at the old Physician and walked to her room with her new child cradled in her arms. When Merlin arrived at her room with the bassinet, she laid Harry down in it, covered him up and then changed into her nightgown by herself and went to sleep. That night Morgana had the first peaceful night of sleep she had had in a long time.
