Good day/night/evening/morning to the beautiful followers , favourites and readers. I hope that you enjoy the story.

I would like for you to drop a review. I still do not own Merlin.

Now onto the story. Upwards and onwards!

"Gwen can I talk to you for a moment" Merlin asked "Alone." It had been some time since the two of them had been alone together. When she thought about it last time they had been alone together was just before Merline left Camelot. "Of course Merlin" she answered and followed the young man. They walked away from Morgana and Arthur. The siblings looked at Merlin and Gwen as they left.

When the two had gotten away Merlin sat down and covered his face with his hands "Gwen, I really don't know what to do anymore" he sobbed "How can I look any of you in the eyes after what happened back then." Gwen already knew what he was talking about. "It is okay Merlin" she reassured him placing her hand on his shoulder.

They sat there for a moment when Gwen remembered the paper Arthur had showed them when Merlin had first started. She debated with herself if telling him about it would be a good idea. However, she came to the conclusion that it would be better if he let Arthur explain. "Are you going to talk to Arthur about any of this?" She asked her friend. He shook his head "Not yet, I am not sure that I can look him in the eyes" Merin told as he stood up. "Thank you for listening to me Gwen. You have always been a good friend" he said. "Merlin both Morgana and Arthur have been looking for you since they were very young" Gwen told him as he was about to leave "That is the reason Arthur will not leave you alone" The young man looked at the normally composed girl. It was as if his legs gave after under him and he fell to the ground. "They always remembered" he whispered.

"What do you think Merlin wanted to talk to Gwen about?" Morgana asked her brother. Arthur had been staring at the same spot since Merlin and Gwen had left. Not just that. He had been in a bad mood since yesterday. Morgana had been wondering about what happened. She not seen Arthur in such distress since before her first death.

"Arthur, if you really want to know what they are doing how about asking Merlin" Morgana mentioned "He might not be exactly how you wanted our Merline to be but it is who she/he is now" Arthur did not even look at his sister when he answered "It is not that I am disappointed in who he is. I just miss my friend and when I found him/her there were no memories of the past and I find out that the world might fall apart because I was reborn" Morgana had never seen him like this. Her brother seemed broken. Not like the noble prince from the past or the brave boy holding unto a dream of finding his friend. She saw a man burdened of the past who wished for it all to be a dream. "I am sorry" she whispered to Arthur as she hugged him. A sad smile appeared on his face. "There is no reason for you to apologise" he told her "It has always been my fault. Our father's hatred for magic lead to everything bad that happened back then but that did not stop me from hating it too"

Gwen was sitting beside Merlin as he processed the information he just received. "Was that why you asked me those questions the first time you saw me" He pieced the information together "But how did you know it was me?" Gwen patted his head and said "We did not know it was you before you told us your name and even then we were not exactly sure. It was when you called Morgana by her name we were sure you were not just a guy who looked like our friend"

The two of them sat there a while. Merlin then stood up and dried his eyes before he took Gwen's hand. "I will talk to Arthur shortly" He told her and they went back to the siblings. Morgana was looking concerned at her brother when they got back. However, when she noticed that Gwen and Merlin came back her face lit up. That was when Merlin spoke up "Arthur, I know I was acting strange yesterday but I would like to talk to you." Arthur looked shocked at him but nodded shortly after. They then left the girls.

"What do you want to talk about Merlin?" Arthur asked "It seemed clear yesterday that you did not want to talk to me." The boy beside him sighed. "Same as always it seems" Merlin stated "Always such an ass no matter what happened. Magical beasts, undead armies, Morgana and everything we faced." Arthur turned his head and looked at Merlin. "Of course, it is first now that it really gets into your royal head that maybe I remembered something" Merlin ranted "And oh, I do remember something. Well, not just something. Everything. And you wanted me to remember. Living to see almost you care about die?"
