Merlin One shots

Merlin's secrets/talents

one, the reason for the title is I'm not exactly sure if it was a secret or a talent, you'll see what mean when you read it. two, this isn't related to any other one shots. Happy reading Merlinians! Oh and sorry for the crappy start, I wasn't sure how to start it.Interesting fact, I was searching through tumbler and found a Colin Morgan fan page, so I scrolled through and it turns out ( I never knew this) He is a vegetarian and lactose intolerant. Also, I stupidly deleted the last Merlin's secrets, So I will be re doing that later.

Merlin was starting to get a bit nervous. He tried not to show it, as his feelings would be ignored. He knew something was going to happen but, he was going to be ignored if he voiced his opinions so why bother. Later on, he wished he did though. Arthur decided he wanted a break from the king life and go hunting for a couple weeks. They weren't due back for another 6 days so, if something happened, they wouldn't know until couple days after that and who knows what could happen in that amount of time.

Since fate loved to prove him wrong and to prove him right at the same time, he had no idea what was going to happen. He sure as hell didn't expect to see an old friend running around the forest as he hadn't seen a single hint of for years, 8 years in fact. He also didn't expect his old friends to recognize him too.

While hunting, Arthur spotted a wolf and because they apparently didn't have enough food so, they went after it. When it ran off around the corner, they didn't expect to suddenly see a man instead of then wolf they were expecting.

" Who are you?" Arthur asked

" I am Giatrós. I am the healer of my people. Who are you to ask?" Giatrós said

" I am King Arthur of Camelot" Arthur said

" Why you are a ways from home. May I ask, are you on our territory?" Giatrós asked

" Your territory? What do you mean? " Leon asked

" You are no longer in Camelot. You hunt in our lands, the kingdom of Ischyrós" Giatrós stated

" What? How?" Elan asked, confused as they thought they were still in Camelot's lands

" You see, We are a kingdom that allows magic, and every once in a while our people like to visit other kingdoms to make trades and stuff of that sorts. We have temporary portals all over as our kingdom has been hidden since the purge. You seem to have stumbled through one. Luckily, I am one of the few who do not hate Camelot for acting in fear but, others hate you as you had made our leaders flee when you threatened his family! He and I were close, I know he would blame you, Arthur Pendragon but, he would blame Uther. If you do wish to stay safe in this kingdom, you must listen to me until I and my friends can get you back home" Giatrós explained

" uh, Thank you I guess" Percival said

" First, you need to put your camelot capes in a bag of some kind, where nobody will see it and if they do, say you stole it to make a new tunic or to put it on a practice dummy or something like that. Secondly, If you do see someone use magic, don't freak out or kill them or anything. Third, the royalties here do not use servants, meaning you do everything yourself, not your manservant. That also counts for training, we have seen you use servants as targets and dummies and other things of that sort. We all get up early on our own accord and everything like that. Basicly, servants don't exist here. No disrespecting our king or anybody for that matter or the stocks for you no matter who you are. I must warn you though, we are creatures of sorts. I believe you call us- err werewolves or something of that sort" Giatrós listed

After all Giatrós' talking he didn't notice Merlin standing near the back until the end of his speech.
"Afentikó?" He asked, bewildered
" Afentikó? Den échete mou láthos, eímai Merlin" Merlin replied
" lypoúmaste, Mérlin, fainesai san telefaío vasilliá mas. To ónomá tou ítan to Afentikó" Giatrós explained
" Hmm. Strange name" Merlin shrugged, now speaking in english
" You speak our language?" Giatrós asked
" Yes, my mother taught me" Merlin explained
"Ah, smart woman" Giatrós complimented
" Indeed" Merlin agreed
" Is that how you name your people? You name then what they grow up to be or do you get the name by procuring that profession?" Merlin asked
" The later one in most cases. For royalty they are powerful enough to see the future and know what to name them" Giatrós explained
"What was it in your case?" Merlin asked curiously
" Royalty. My family has been close friends with the royals for some time now. They do us a favor and look to see what it is" Giatrós explained
" Hmm. Very interesting kingdom" Merlin commented
" What's going on?" Gwaine asked
" Their kingdom speaks Greek, and Giatrós means doctor and Afintikó means boss" Merlin explained
" Hmm. Where did your mother learn it?" Gwaine asked
Merlin tensed slightly, not very much only so much so that only Giatrós, Arthur and Lancelot noticed
"No idea" Merlin answered
Some of them could tell he was lying, but they didn't say anything because it seemed like a touchy subject.
