Merthur/Merlin one shot

Unintentional time travel or was it dimension travel? part 3

Meeting all of his old friends or more as a family, pained a lot. Yet he hid behind a smile as introducing himself to them as well as Henry. The boy was shy and hid behind him. Making the other look adorable and they all cooed and making sure to talk with kindness.

Gwaine was instantly declared to be their little brother and when someone would harm them hell would be paid, to his chagrin. Henry clearly enjoyed and once again his heart shattered when the boy asked about him being serious.

Then came Gwen with Morgana and he was really unsure what to do. Yet he had to remind himself that this was not the corrupted Morgana. Leading for him to talk but with a distance. Henry seemed to know that something was up and leading for the other to be even more cautious but also curious. As soon as they were left alone, the boy asked him why he was not liking Auntie Morgie as the female was really kind. But Henry also could understand that trusting adults was not easy and making him smile sadly.

There was no way that he could explain this and so he shrugged as an answer and that was it. Myrddin and Henry talked as they continued to converse to each other but because of this he had not paid attention and they ended up lost and he cursed now.

Even though he had once lived in these walls, it had been way too long for him and this was what he realized. Henry clearly knew that they were as lost and he cursed on his mind for not paying attention. Merlin for sure will search for them and that was why he decided that the two stayed here and waited for someone to walk there. This was until a few minutes later and he was hating his luck. In front of him stood a surprised teen Mordred, which was probably around 16 years old from what he could tell.

"Emrys really? I just saw you recently and now you're with a son and shrunk to a 5 year old." Mordred's voice was amused yet deadpanned and he couldn't help but shoot a dry look.

"First of all I am not Emrys, my name is Myrddin Emerson and second of all he's not my son but a friend." He grumbled out and the other snorted.

"Don't even try to lie to a druid. I can feel that you're Emrys but not the same one I am used to. The child on the other hand has magic and just you could come up with a name like this to mess with people." The grin was telling him enough and the giggle next to him made him groan out.

"Hewo w'at you name, stwangew?" The curious undertone made him smile a bit, as if he was glad to see that he little bean wanted to know.

What Myrddin knew was that it would take ages for Henry to be better but he was sure that with the help of the people he calls family and his other self as well as him, that it for sure will go well.

"I am Mordred and guessing that you're still Merlin but at the same time not."

"Yes, and don't remind me. Anyway, we got lost." He was pretty sure that the other found that amusing and he puffed his cheeks out as he knew that the other was different then his Mordred.

Don't get him wrong, this was still him but this Mordred was not corrupted and he knew that it would take ages for him to get used to this. The male ended up bringing them to Gaius and he felt a pang at seeing his father figure. The male looked at him a few seconds before raising his eyebrows.

"I should have known that this could just happen to you. You even found yourself with a child." The wry undertone made him pout as it was really not his fault.

"Really Dad? To be fair it was not my fault that Henry and I somehow chucked back into the past, shrunk as a child, nor was I expecting to land close to the prat and to Gwaine. I really had the shock of my life, so cut me some slack." He whined and looked exactly his age. This sucked a lot.

"Did you just- I feel that you're not Merlin yet at the same time you're him." Gaius said with a soft tone and he winced as he still was not that sure.

"I mean I have the theory that I am in a different dimension but am not yet that sure."

Henry stayed silent as looking around and once again he introduced Henry to his father figure. They continued to converse and as they got found by Merlin, and leaving the room he realized what he called Gaius and he was embarrassed but also felt glad to see that even in this dimension that the other sees his other self as a son.
