Amelia's POV
Arthur drifts under murky water wearing his armour. A woman stands over him watching as he drifts further into the water's depths.
Amelia wakes with a gasp, her breath shakes. "Arthur! Arthur!" She gasps quietly.
Once she calms down, she leaps from her bed to where her notes are, which she had recently found and flicks through the pages till she gets to the episode she had noted down after Edwin.
"Season 1 Episode 7 - A girl called Sophia turns up with her father, enchants Arthur and tries to kill him in lake but Merlin stops them."
Okay, she can work with that. At least she now knows that while her dream partly comes true, Arthur does not die, which is a relief. Now all she has to do is wait for them to show up and make sure the ending her notes say happens and does not change for the worst or she can try to prevent it happening in the first place.

The next morning, Amelia learns that Morgana also had a similar dream. This is not unusual as there are times that she and Morgana have the same dreams at the same time, it is like they are connected.
Amelia tells her that they will have to see what happens as there is nothing they can do right now.
Later that morning her and Morgana take a walk through the Castle. When walking down one corridor, Amelia notices Merlin handing a familiar girl a blanket. The girl, most likely Sophia, enters her Guest Chambers. As she does so, she turns her head and looks directly at Amelia and Morgana causing the both of them to slow down to a stop. Once Sophia has entered her room, Morgana picks up speed and approaches Merlin anxiously. Amelia follows.
"Who is that?" Morgana asks, still staring at where Sophia had once stood.
"Er... Sophia Tír-Mòr. We rescued her in the woods." Merlin says before muttering, "Well, Arthur did most of the rescuing."
"She can't stay here," Amelia says.
"The King said that she and her father are welcome in Camelot. Is everything ok?" Merlin asks, noticing the anxious looks on both Amelia and Morgana's faces.
"Yes. Thank you." Morgana tells him, snapping out of it.
"Let's go to Gaius," Amelia tells her. Morgana nods in agreement. If they tell Gaius, then when something starts happening then he will probably mention it to Merlin and make him aware that something is going on. She wants to encourage as much suspicion as possible on Sophia.

Amelia and Morgana enter just as Gaius takes a flask off of a burner.
"I'm sorry, we didn't mean to disturb you," Morgana says as they walk over to him.
"Nonsense, my children. My favourite patients are always welcome." Gaius kisses both their cheeks. Amelia then glances behind Gaius and spots that a small part of Gaius' bench is now on fire. She can see that Morgana has also noticed.
"I'm sorry about the mess," Gaius tells them, having not noticed it yet but has noticed the looks on their faces. "Most of it's Merlin's. If I'd known you were coming, I'd have tidied up in here."
"Er... it's not that. It's just... your bench is on fire." Amelia awkwardly tells him.
"My bench is on fire? What are you..." he trails off catching onto what they had just said and turns to look. "My bench is on fire!"
Morgana hands him a bucket. "Here."
Gaius uses tongs to drop the flask into the water. "You two are always getting me into trouble. What brings you to this dark corner?" He leans against his bench that no longer has flames on it.
