18 year old orphan Merlin, was a good luck charm since the day he was born. Unlucky for him when he was 8 years old he decided to escape the orphanage, it felt suffocating and the fact that he knew that once you where 4 the chances of leaving the place where next to nothing, felt heavy in his chest.
So he ran, and since that day he had been running all his life.
Aredian. He had found him roaming in the streets and told him that he would protect him and help him survive if he worked for him. Merlin oblivious by what he meant by 'working' said yes. What he did not know was that when he signed the contract Aredian would own him and he would for the next 10 years of his life, he did not know he would train him to be an assassin or that he would be forced to gamble in underground places once they realized just how much luck he had; it seemed that luck was with him in everything but in life it self.
He did not know he would end up being the leader of the most powerful people Aredian owned simply because he had more skill and that Aredian would be the abusive asshole he was. He knew he could kill Aredian just like he had been forced to do with others he rather not in the past but then what? At first he refused to kill but that just ended up in the ones he cared for getting hurt, he tried to fight but that only ended up with him getting hurt. So he gave up. And when he killed he tried to forget what he was doing he shot down and switched his heart for a cold-hearted one.
But today the contract ended he he was going to escape he was going to leave this place the ones that had been ones his friends had been either killed or they had chosen to lose themselves in their own minds; there was no going back for them. No matter how much wanted to deny that to himself.
He was smarter than most and he knew that, he was clever and he was somewhat a genius with technology. But just when he had thought he was free he died. He was killed just like that, lost in his own thoughts, crossing the road a car hit him...from all the possible ways an assassin could die and this, this was an insult to his kind! Not that he was proud of it, but it was below mediocre it was a crap! A crap of a way of dying he had always tought that if he died it would at least have been in an exiting way but this?!
Then again maybe not..."Oh, god! He woke up, he woke up!" As he woke up he saw a pretty dark haired and pale skinned woman screamed looking down at him. When he looked around he realized where he was, he had expected to be in some king of fluffy heaven but it turned out to be just a car...it felt weird he had never been inside a car before...The guy driving turned around for a second to look at him and then Merlin thought he might be seeing some kind of Greece god or something but then again he had been the guy that had almost gave him a very, very shameful death. "You know, you should look at the road maybe that`s why you almost killed me!" The guy looked like he was about to spat right at him but the pretty woman shut him up with a force glare."He is right Arthur you should look at the road."
"Where are you taking me?" He growled. "To the hospital." The blond said as a matter of fact. "No!" He suddenly shouted. He could`t go there, he for once did not have money and yes maybe escaping hand`t been the greatest idea but he had to. The black haired woman gave him a strange look. "You are bleeding, have been losing a lot of blood during the next 15 minutes!I`m surprised you haven`t died yet! We have to take you to the hospital or you will die!" She said leaving no space for argument unlucky for her he wasn`t going to go in there even if it cost him his life. Which it probably would. He looked down at his shirt and realized he indeed had lost a lot of blood, but she was exaggerating he had seen worst.
And then he freaked out. No wounds...
No wounds. No wounds, NO WOUNDS! Not here not there. He inspected his whole body and nothing blank...Literally he was paper white.
"No! I`m fine I`m fine." He told here trying to convince her, they would probably put him in a lab or something and make experiments on him, he could`t! He was finally free and he was not going to be caged again! Not matter what he had to do to get there and he what going to go to university and live a normal life with no deaths or super abnormal healing powers that he had apparently somehow achieved once he had been in the edge of death. He had cheated death! HE! The one that had taken hundreds of lives since he was 9! "How can you possibly be fine! You are covered in blood!"
"Maybe you hit some poor animal to!" Merlin told the guy. Which was bollocks. The guy rolled his eyes and said. "Let us at least take you to the hospital so you can be checked over." Merlin then realized looking at both of them closely. "You can`t tell me what to do!" He protested. "Yeah, I can I`m older than you."
"No you can`t, and you are not Arthur." He smirked mostly to himself. "How do you know my name!" The guy demanded. "Take a long guess, idiot. And I`m also 18 even if I don't look like it."
"How do you know?!" The guy demanded to know. "The license, you know you freak out very easily."
"How can possibly read that from there! Thats humanly impossible!"The girl snorted and smirked at him. "I like him, I think I`m going to adopt you!" Merlins grin turned into a pained look and he felt like crying. He felt pathetic. "Can you let me down here."
"No way where do you live we are taking you there, people would think you just committed murder or something." That hit Merlin twice as much but then again they didm`t said anything to make him feel bad and they, they might be able to help. But he did`t reply the words did not form properly in his throat or at all. "I asked you where do you live?" He repeated himself. He sighed. "I don`t have a home..."
The girl looked back at him shocked. "You are barely an adult you now. And your parents? Family something?"
He shook his head. "I just turned 18 right about now in fact." He looked at the clock that said 7:00pm. "And no I don`t have, parents, family...or friend." At least not left alive he bit back. "So unless you want to bring a homeless guy home you will live me , right here."
"You are just 18 and are already in the streets!" Arthur shouted abruptly stoping in a parking-lot but not letting the door locks open. "Well technically I don`t know my age I have always a summed I have this age but i think I have like 2 years less or something." He srugged of.
Ok, so to resume it better because if I don`t I`ll probably write the whole thing:
Merlin kind of starts living with Arthur and Morgana. They all enroll into the same university and Merlin uses have been thrown out of the orphanage once he was 18 for an explanation which he dosen`t think they believe as the whole truth but they leave it there. And since the day of the fateful accident he somehow earned healing powers that he will use and so he decides to learn medicine in the university.
And just when he had started having somewhat a normal life he finds out that people had been searching for him.
Now what will happen after all of that and during all of those lines is completely up to you. Again you can change that how much you like to and don`t forget the rules.
Happy writing~
