Willow's POV

    Gwen came and woke me up. "Good morning Gwen. Not to be rude but why are you waking me up?" She smiled and told me to get dressed and follow her. I did just that. "Where are we going? I need to get ready for today. I have a fight to do." She nodded and ushered me into a room. "Oh you are getting me ready. I can do it myself you know." "Yeah but Morgana wants me to help you through this whole thing." I nodded and took the clothes she handed me and dressed into them. "Oh pants." She started putting nicely polished armor on me. "I'm rooting for you to win." I tilted my head as to ask her why. "I overheard Arthur talking with his father about the fact that if you win he escorts you to the feast." I smiled a little as she finished and started on putting new bandages on. "You like Arthur don't you?" I blushed and stuttered out a no. "Hmmm okay." She put my hair up handed me my sword and helmet. We walked to the tent Arthur was in and waited for him while talking. "You look really nice in armor, almost like you belong in it." I shrugged and told her that I don't look nice at all. "Where did you get the armor and sword anyway?" She smiled. "My father. He wanted to do this as a gift for you." Knight after knight would walk by and look at Gwen and I. "I must thank him for I don't need any of this." She hugged me a little. "You are just as worthy and look Arthur." I turned and walked over to them. 

        "Hello sir Arthur!" He jumped some and turned to me. "Nyx don't do that. I almost hit you." I smiled. "Sorry Arthur I thought it would be fun plus I get to fight. I'm very happy about it." He nodded and patted my head. "Don't you fight first Nyx?" I said a simple no and told him he fought and then I fight. "Good luck Arthur! May the best win." He walked away to his fight. I sat and watched to see how it went. Obviously he won. "Next fight we have the first ever lady to fight. Willow Nyx!" Murmurs went around as I walked out. "Sire I'm not fighting a lady. She already looks hurt." I simply smiled. "I'll be fine sir Lynn. I can fight just fine." He nodded with uncertainty wavering around him.

   Swing after swing, jump after jump we fought for awhile. I was barely breathing hard when I won. Fights like this went on all day. By the end of the day 2 remained. Arthur, the man with the shield I don't trust and me. I fight whoever wins between those two. It should be fun.

  "Willow, father wishes for you to join us knights at dinner." I nodded and asked if I should change or stay like the way I am. Arthur told me to change into a nice dress for the dinner. I nodded and head towards Morgana's room. "Morgana can I borrow a nice dress?" She threw open her door and drug me in. "Oh I'm going to make you look real pretty. Arthur will just drool over you!" I brushed off her last comment and looked at the dress she pulled out. "You can wear this one again!" I quickly changed and put my hair in an updo bun thingy. "Have fun Willow!" I thanked her and headed to everyone.

   I walked in and everyone got quiet. "Oh did I interrupt a conversation? I'm so sorry!" I bowed in apology. "Rise Willow. I invited you because you are competing. You are fine dear no harm done." I stood up properly and hung my head a little. "I do apologize sir." "Sit." I sat in the open seat next to Arthur and Lynn. "You look lovely Nyx." I smiled and blushed. "Thank you sire. You look as handsome as always." He smiled and kept on talking and eating. I didn't really talk to anyone but Arthur and Lynn but they talked with everyone else. I did enjoy the food but I had excused myself and went to my room. I changed and laid down thinking about all the outcomes for tomorrow, it should be fun.

Next day

   Gwen came in and got me ready again even though I told her not to, that I could do it. "Who are you hoping to fight?" I thought for a second. "I guess Arthur. I have fought him before, plus he has gotten better." "You just want to fight him so you can win." I'm not going to lie, that's exactly why. "You are not wrong Gwen." "Let's get you going. You have a fight to win."

Small time skip

   Arthur won against Valiant. Well he won because Valiant was using magic, sad that he was. Anyway it's my turn to fight Arthur. I stood in the middle with Arthur and everyone was cheering Arthur's or my name. "Ready Willow?" We hit swords. "You bet Arthur." I let him attack first. Wrong move on my part. He almost nicked my leg. "Cheap shot Arthur. Rude." "All fair in this game." This went on for awhile. At the last moment Arthur disarmed me, winning. "You beat me, finally." I took my helmet off in front of everyone for the first time ,while a warm smile covered my face. A few gasps were heard. "I'm glad I got to fight you. I mean I'm still a better fighter." I laughed a little while he rolled his eyes. "Let's go. I need to change and get ready for tonight." Arthur said with a chuckle. Gwen ran over and gave me a hug telling me a I did really good. "Thanks Gwen but I need to bathe and get ready for the feast." She nodded and ran off to do somethings. I went and did what I needed when Gwen walked in with a bundle of dresses. "Um what do you have in your arms?" She showed me the three dresses and told me to try them on.       The first dress was a deep purple with a white flower design at the waist. The second dress was a royal blue. It is plain but very pretty. The last but not least an emerald green, off the shoulder dress. "Did you get this dress from Morgana?" She just smirked and helped me into in and she did my hair and a little makeup. "You look so pretty Willow. All the men will fall for you." I touched my face. "What about my scar? No one will love nor think this beautiful." She hugged me. "You are a very beautiful girl Nyx. Get out there and stun them." I took a deep breath and walked into the feast. Everyone turned to look at me and then went back to talking. "You look lovely Nyx." I jumped some. "Oh hello Merlin and thank you." "Welcome. You seem to have caught a few peoples attention." I took a look around and seen a few knights walk my way. "Hello I'm Hunter Price and you must be the lovely Willow." I smiled and told him a simple yes. "This is one of my servants Merlin. He is here so I don't do anything stupid." He simply laughed. "That's alright." Merlin leaned over to whisper in my ear. "Arthur seems real jealous that you have knights speaking to you." I just laughed and told him he's lying and went back to what I was doing. Little did I know that he wasn't lying and Arthur was death glaring all the knights by me.
