Memories of then (Prince Merlin Fanfic)

Part 6

Gaius' POV

Gwaine and Lancelot fumble through the door holding an unconscious Merlin around there shoulders.

"What happened?" I ask clearing off the patients bed.

"I found him looking very unwell he couldn't tell me what was wrong." Gwaine said.

"When we lifted him he fell unconscious." Lancelot added worry written all over his features.

"Lay him down here." They lay Merlin down and I walk over and lift his eyelid. His eyes are glazed over and his pupils unnaturally dilated although they seem to be wandering, as if looking but unable to see.

"Get me some fresh water." His brow is covered in sweat and slightly furrowed in pain.

"Merlin? Merlin? Come on boy what happened?" He doesn't respond the only proof that he is alive is the unsteady rise and fall of his chest. I turn to Lancelot who is standing to the side his face contorted with worry.

"Get Arthur" I say, he nods turning to fetch the king.

"Will he be alright?" he says stopping to ask once he's reached the door.

"I don't know." I say solemnly. He nods and walks out the door. Moments later Gwaine runs in with the water and I place a cloth on his brow to control the fever.

"Any change?" Gwaine asks. I turn and shake my head.

"All we can do is wait."

Olivia's POV

We walk back to our camp, Sir Anthony had awoken and was walking along side Sir Tony.

"Why were you looking for me?" I ask. The two jog forward to be able to speak to me better.

"We have received word that Sirs David, Tyler ,and Fernand have found your brother, my lady." Sir Tony says with a slight smile on his face. I stop in my tracks and turn to the Knights.

"What are you playing at? That's not possible." I say "Merlin died during the siege along with my mother." I look down at my shoes remembering that night.

"My lady, they did not. They settled in a small village called Ealdor and Merlin has since moved to Camelot." He says. I jump slightly at the name.

"Why would he go there?!?" I yell, Merlin is a warlock and a very powerful one at that, why would he go to Camelot a place that hates sorcery.

"He went to stay with Gaius a friend that your mother met while they lived in Ealdor. Since then he has become servant to the king." Sir Anthony responded.

"Merlin's a servant!!! To the king of Camelot!!!" I yelled then burst out laughing at the hilarious scene playing in my head, I had seen Arthur before and imagined Merlin running all over the palace after him.

"Yes he is, my lady. The perfect cover." Sir Tony says giggling a bit to himself. "Will you come to Camelot, my lady?"

"Yes I will, I will do anything to see Merlin again."

Merlin's POV

Darkness surrounded me yet I was conscious, able to wander around the abyss freely not getting anywhere. Pain is all I feel pounding and burning as if someone had just beat me and covered me in acid. But all the pain was focused to my head. I walk around more, hoping to find something that could hint to where I was. Suddenly, I was transported from the darkness to a place easily recognized as my home Ealdor.
