Fear pt.5
Hello, hope you are having a good day.
"Mary or Matthew or whatever you call yourself, you need to get Thomas. Now." Merlin said weakly.
"Why? You don't look ill." Mary or Matthew or whatever she calls herself asked.
"I'm sick. I'm coughing and sweating. I have a fever and you're blind."
"I warned you."
"You know what? I have a weakness. I never listen."
Mary used magic and caused Merlin a lot of pain. Merlin gasped in pain. When it was over, Merlin passed out. That afternoon, Thomas came to check on Merlin.
"You have a fever. When did it start?" Thomas sighed.
"This morning. I guess I was so ill that I passed out." Merlin answered.
"There has been a plague going around. It looks like you have it."
"I feel so sick."
"You will. I'll have Mark come later and give you something to help."
"Ok."
Thomas left. Later that day, Mark come with the medicine. Merlin got as much sleep as he could. The next day, Mithian came.
"Merlin, can I talk to you? Alone?" Mithian asked. So Thomas and Mark left the room. Matthew stayed. "You too."
"But I'm his servant. I must stay with him. He's ill." Matthew answered.
"He'll be fine. Now go. How about you go get him something to eat. He looks hungry."
SO Matthew left.
"Thank you. Ok, get this bracelet off me." Merlin sighed. Mithian did. "Ok. I don't have time to explain so I'll have to show you." So Merlin chanted a spell and showed Mithian what was happening and had happened. Then he put a spell on the bracelet and put it under his pillow. "Ok. What I need you to do is get your father's best knights. Tell your father what's happening. I don't know what she's planning but I do know that it's revenge."
"I know what to do."
"I'm going to chant a spell that will protect you from her."
So Merlin did. Then Mithian left.
"How is he?" Matthew asked.
"He's fine." Mithian replied.
"What were you talking about?"
"Not much."
Then Matthew went in.
"What was that about?" Mary questioned.
"She wanted to ask me about what had happened." Merlin answered.
Merlin ate his lunch. Several hours later, Merlin was asleep. Mary approached him with a dagger in her hand. Merlin laid on his left side. Then just as Merlin woke up, Mary stabbed him.
