The Prince's Return (A Prince Merlin AU )

Chapter 15

Normal POV

Servants, Commoners, Sorceress and Sorcerers were all lined up in front of the citadel. One by one entering to grab a seat and listen in on the plans made by their Crown Prince.

Merlin sent different groups of men to get ready. He had Sorcerers and Sorceress on dragons. Knights, Commoners and some servants on horse backs in armor with swords and shields in their hand.

"Arthur will be with me when I go after James. My brother will lead the other knights as they cover us while we enter the castle." Merlin explained.

"Merlin wouldn't it be better if I lead the knights." Arthur questioned.

Without hesitation."No!" Arthur looked at his friend in shock.

"You'll be aiding me and that's final." Merlin reassured him.

Dismissing everyone from the meeting and they prepared their weapons, horses and dragons as they rode out. Merlin and Arthur was on his dragon while Morgana and Samuel was on the other.

"We are going to descend in a clearing and enter the castle on foot." Merlin shouted.

The others nodded. Finally reaching the clearing they descended from the skies. Mounting the dragons Merlin patted Aithusa as he spoke. "Be careful ." He said.

Smiling at her friend." You to Merlin." Aithusa replied as she took off .

"Well shall we!" Samuel stated.

They walked straight out of the forest and into one of the back tunnels Merlin, his brother and mother had to use in order to escape on the day Aratheial fell.

The dark stone walls strained around them as they walked up the stairs leading into the citadel hallways the warning bells chimed. Taking out their swords when they saw James's knights , Merlin and the others charged forth. Their swords clashing with rhythm each time they attacked. Merlin and Morgana stood side by side.

"Reminds you of our first date huh!" She laughed.

Merlin laughed as he launched at the knight with another attack. "If I remember correctly we went flying on aithusa and was ambushed." He recalled.

The two lovebirds kissed with one final blow to their target. The sensation of their lips touching made it as if they where the only ones in the room. Which was even weirder considering they weren't and it was getting to weird for Arthur and Samuel.

"Get a room you too." Samuel spoke.

"Yeah, how do I unsee that?" Arthur gawked.

The two laughed and released each other. " oh please Arthur it's not the first time we kissed in front of you." Morgana laughed as they walked off leaving Camelot's king as confused as ever.

As they made their way further into the castle towards the thrown room the Emerald of Aratheial glowed around Merlin's neck making Merlin stop in his tracks. The ominous deep blue light shined as it lifted itself from Merlin's seal. Merlin and the others watched as the seal hovered over him, until it began to move.

They followed the emerald until it came to an abrupt stop in front of a bolted door.

"What's behind the door Samuel?" Merlin questioned .

" I don't know. It's the door father told us not to open no matter what." He explained.

Merlin nodded."You and Morgana go help the rest of them while Arthur and I check it out."

Samuel nodded."Be careful Merlin." Morgana said hugging him before taking off with Samuel.

Merlin and Arthur watched as their brother and sister walked away. "What now?" Arthur asked.

Turning around Merlin sighed." Now we enter the battlefield." Merlin said as he turned the knob with nothing but curiosity as he pondered what lied a head.
