Emrys, My Hero (Merlin x Mordred)

Chapter Seventeen- The Disappearance

Mordred's POV 

Emrys?  I need help, Emrys! 

That was all I was able to get out before everything went black.

Merlin's POV 

I ran through the castle hallways trying to get to the front door. I ran outside and stopped and looked around to see any signs of the young knight that called for help in the courtyard. No one was around. I ran out of the citadel and was looking through the town below. 

Arthur didn't tell me where they were taking Mordred, only that he was taking him out for some reason. I assumed Arthur knew about our breakup and wanted to make him feel better. Where would he take them though? The tavern maybe? 

I kept running until I reached the tavern that the knights like to go to, nothing. I asked the owner of the tavern if he had seen them and he said that the King ordered a bunch of bottles and put them in a crate to take out. So they were in the woods somewhere, great. 

Mordred where are you? Please tell me so I can find you!

I wasn't getting anything. Ugh. I didn't know what to do. So I kept thinking.

And thinking.

The Queen! Yes! She will send a detail out with me to look for them! I started to run back to the castle only to stop dead in my tracks. What would I tell her? How could I tell her that Mordred and I have magic and he linked with me to tell me that they were in danger? Just how?

Great now I have to do this by myself and hope Gwen will notice they are gone still by morning.

 I went to the stables and got a horse ready then went to the kitchen to grab some food and water before I went. After I headed out I thought that I should've probably leave Gaius a note so he would know but I was already heading into the woods and I don't have any more time to waste.

I rode through Camelot just looking for a single sign that the knights were here. Just one. I was already seeing the sun come up and I was dreading going any further. I don't know where they could have gone. 

Mordred are you there? I'm looking. I'm trying to find you. Just hold on.

I waited a minute, nothing. I just want to hear his voice, I don't like not being able to hear him or know where he is. I may not love him anymore but he was still close to me personally, I told him to leave but now that he is gone I want him back. Maybe I can try to fix things when I find him.

Just maybe.

Mordred's POV

-hold on. 

I could faintly hear Emrys, though I couldn't call out. My body was heavy and my head was throbbing with pain. I peeled my eyes open and tried to look around. I could barely see in front of me with as little light that was in the room. I slowly moved my arms, noticing that they were chained to a wall above my head. I moved my legs and heard chains clanking from them too.

"Arthur is that you?" 

I heard a voice call out to me, "No it's Mordred. Who are you? I can barely see."

"Thought you would've recognized my voice then. It's Gwaine."

"Where are we?"

"Some of Morgana's men got us. I think we are the only two in this room. You've been asleep for some time now."
