Hey everyone, here is the next chapter! Something big happens near the end! Please vote and review! Enough of me talking, enjoy the chapter. Oh I almost forgot, I do not own anything except for Sam.

Standing in the Council Chamber was very nerve racking. All the knights including Valiant, Uther, Arthur, Merlin, and myself were standing in the room. My mind was going to explode, as I tried to remember what happened in this scene. I caught a glimpse of Valiant staring at me and a creepy smirk was on his face. Sometimes I thought, "I can't wait until this episode is over so I don't have to see him ever again." Merlin must have noticed Valiant looking at me, so he grabbed my hand and squeezed it with comfort. Merlin glared at Valiant as Uther sat down on his thrown.

Uther was not in the mood as he asked, "Why have you summoned the court?"

Arthur looked at Valiant before answering, "I believe Knight Valiant is using a magic shield to cheat in the tournament."

The whole council started whispering and looking at each other. I stared at Valiant to see his expression. He looked shocked, but he then tried to compose himself to make himself look as innocent as he could be. Uther glanced at his son before turning his attention to Valiant.

"Valiant, what do you have to say to this," he asked.

Valiant scoffed at Arthur before saying, "My Lord, this is ridiculous. I've never used magic. Does your son have any evidence to support this outrageous accusation?"

Uther turned back to Arthur as he asked him, "Do you have evidence?"

"I do."

Arthur nodded his head for Merlin to come forward with the snake's head. Merlin and I agreed that he would give Arthur the snake's head. Even though I, Sam Welsh, had cut of its head... I still didn't want to touch it. Looking at the head still gave me the creeps and shivers down my spine. Besides, I'm trying to remember something VERY important in this episode that I kept on forgetting.

Arthur walked up to his father and handed Uther the snake head. His eyes were in shock as he stared at the snake's head. I looked back at Valiant to see him looking very calm. My eyebrows drew together as I thought to myself, why is he so calm and relaxed? What's he planning?

"Let me see this shield," said Uther.

As Valiant was about to hand Uther the shield, Merlin whispered to Arthur, "Don't let him get too close."

Arthur nodded his head to Merlin before saying to Uther, "Be careful, My Lord."

Arthur drew his sword as Uther inspected the shield. I didn't realize that Gaius entered the room until I heard him whisper, "Samantha."

I looked to see Gaius standing behind one of the pillars.

As I walked over to him, I heard Arthur whispered to Merlin, "We need Ewan. Find out what's happening."

"What Gaius," I whispered to him.

"Sir Ewan is dead."

My eyes expanded with horror. "What, I thought he was recovering."

"He was. I went back to the room and found him there with his eyes wide open, no pulse, and not breathing. I'm so sorry Samantha, but there was nothing I could do," whispered Gaius grimly.

I thought about for a moment and a flashback hit me. I remembered Ewan in his bed alive, but something jumped at him and bit him to death. How could I forget that part in the episode?

"It was the snake," I whispered.

I turned about to Merlin to see his face shocked and horrified. We lost our one and only witness. My whole body started to tremble as I realized I could have saved Ewan, but now he's dead.
