Merlin could feel his lower half being ripped in half. Gauis was looking at his apprentice with worry etched on his features. "Would you like Arthur here?" Sir Elyan asked the sweaty body on the bed, trying to comfort Merlin's pain. "No! Please don't tell him what is happening!" Merlin screamed. He could feel it wanting to get out of him and meet the cruel world they lived in. Both, Merlin and Gauis knew it wouldn't be long before Elyan had to call Arthur to meet his new son.

It was mid morning when Merlin started to feel the pains in his hips and lower back intensify as he made Arthur's bed. The pains had been there since the moment he had woken up that morning, but the young warlock had thought nothing of them and continued his day like no other.

Sir Gwaine had helped him up the stairs to Arthur's chamber like every other day. Gwen helped him open the curtains with a smile like she had for that past three months. And Arthur had talked to his bump as always, since he found out about the little person that was growing inside of Merlin. Everything was normal, nothing had been out of the ordinary. Until Merlin had felt his trousers get wet and the sensation as if he had wet himself.

That was when the pain became completely unbearable and he let out an ear curling scream, alarming the guards. The guards came barging into the Crowned Prince's chamber to see if he was in trouble, but were met by his manservant on the ground, crying in pain. They immediately carried him to Gauis' chambers as they were instructed to do if something like this was to occur.

"Merlin what happened?" Gauis asked as he looked him over to see any mayor wounds. "It's coming... it's coming now!" Merlin's scream of pure agony was heard all the way to the courtyard, where Elyan and Gwen were conversing and getting water for the Lady Morgana. Gwen felt the need to go check and see if Merlin was alright. Elyan trying not to leave his sister's side and was to curious about the scream accompanied her.

They walked as fast as they could without breaking into a run the moment they heard more screams. The closer they got the better they could hear what was being said.

"I will kill him for doing this to me!"

"I hate him, I hate him, I hate him!"

"Gauis help me, please! I feel like I'm dying!"

Gauis took a calming and relaxing breath, trying not to snap at the man in labour. "Merlin you have to stay calm. I can't speed up the process" just as he had finished explaining to the manservant, Gwen and Elyan walked into his chambers.

"What happened?" Gwen quickly walked over to Merlin's side. "He's gone into labour." Gauis said, worry and fear leaking his words.

Merlin could feel his lower half being ripped in half. Gauis was looking at his apprentice with worry etched on his features. "Would you like Arthur here?" Elyan asked the sweaty boy on the bed. "No! Please don't tell him what is happening!" Merlin screamed. He could feel the baby wanting to get out of him and meet the world he would be living in.  Merlin and Gauis knew it wouldn't be long before Elyan had to call Arthur to meet his new son. 

"Elyan could please pass me some cool water and bring Arthur. Gwen please help Merlin sit up" Gauis instructed. He pulled Merlin's trousers off the moment Elyan wasn't there anymore. "This will be painful."

Arthur was training with Sir Leon when Sir Elyan ran into the field, yelling for Arthur's attention, "Arthur, Sire!" Sir Leon took advantage of the Prince's distraction and knocked the sword out of Arthur's hand. The young Prince laughed and rolled his eyes. "What is it Elyan?" he asked as he picked up his sword. "Merlin is in labour" Elyan wheezed out, while trying to catch his breath. Arthur instantly dropped his sword again and took off into a sprint towards Gauis' chambers. "Leon cancel all training for the rest of the week!" he ordered as he tried to get to his lover in time.

Sadly, when Arthur arrived Merlin was already holding a bundle of blankets to his chest and smiling softly at it. "Arthur.." Gwen smiled when she noticed him just standing there and staring at Merlin and his new baby. Merlin looked up at the mention of his lover and motioned him over. The Prince complied, still in a trance from the beautiful image of Merlin with their baby.

"Arthur, I would like you to meet your son, Lucca" Merlin smiled, handing the small bundle over to Arthur. He smiled at the mopey blonde hair and deep blue eyes. The boy was the spitting image of the Future King. "Gwen, inform the King and the Lady Morgana please" Gauis asked, feeling a bit tired himself from all the chaos it was to bring that child to life. Gwen and Elyan exited the hall, only to bump into Gwaine and Leon, who were coming to meet Camelot's new Prince.

After a few minutes almost all of the closest people in the newborn baby's life were there. All except his Uncle Lancelot. "Gwen where is Lancelot?" Merlin asked once he noticed the absence of his friend. "He was on patrol last I knew" she smiled.

Morgana was in love with new addition to the royal family. She couldn't wait for Lucca to grow old enough to do schemes with her. Arthur and the knights were exited to teach little Lucca all they could about sword fighting, and Merlin couldn't wait to help his son use his magic for the god and safety of Camelot.
