Merlin Oneshots

Stalker (Part 3)

Ok, this should be the last part of the oneshot, if not I'm so sorry! Happy reading!

Third POV

Merlin definitely needed tended to, so Gaius set to work. He started with cleaning all the blood of of Merlin. He then put a herb mixture on all his bruises. And he finished by wrapping them up. As he stood back to make sure he hadn't missed anything, Merlin started to wake up.

As soon as Merlin had woken up fully, he shot up from the bed. He looked around and relaxed a little bit. Gaius walked towards him, and reached out for him. The poor boy instantly reeled back against the wall and fell to the ground; curling in on himself. Gaius stopped advancing towards the boy and put his hand down.

"Oh my boy, what did that man do to you?" Gaius wasn't asking, he was just saying. There would be no answer and he knew that.

---Time Skip---

"Gaius, is he ready to be seen now?" The usually drunken knight questioned. And as soon as he got a confirmation that he could indeed go see his best friend, he walked in. When he came in, he saw the small frame of his friend. He was much smaller that he used to be, and he had lost a lot of muscle. But he was still Merlin, the boy who could make anybody laugh even on their worst days.

"Hey mate, how's it going today? The princess is really worried about you. He's been in the training yard all day, beating up the training dummies. He's broken five by now. You need to get better mate. We're getting worried about you." The knight sat down by the bed of the broken boy and they say in silence.

A couple of minutes went by before Merlin spoke. "He raped me." He spoke so softly that Gwaine barely heard it. But when he looked at his friend, he knew he heard right. But, the boy had other things to say so the man stayed silent. "He would rape me then he would beat me. Almost every night. I was put in that pit when he wasn't with me. All I got to eat was some moldy bread twice a week. He would rape me then beat me then throw me in that pit. Almost every day for two months." The boy was silent once again. But if you listened close enough, you could hear him crying.

Gwaine was upset to say the least. He was going to kill that bastard. He kept his emotions at bay until he left his friend in peace.

Arthur's POV

"Sire, I need to talk to you. It's about Merlin." That was all I needed to open the door. Gwaine walked in with a face full of rage. "Well, what is it Gwaine?"

"You should sit down sire." And that's how I knew that this was some fucked up shit I was going to be told. Gwaine never calls me sire, least of all twice in a minute. So I sat down, and motioned for him o continue.

"I was just with Merlin, and he told me what happened to him. He said that man would rape him then beat him then throw him in the pit he had dug out for him. The man had starved him, feeding him twice a week. He won't be the same." The speech left a somber mood in the room and we were both trying to suppress the anger inside of us.

Oh screw that, we will kill that monster.

Third POV

"Gunter, you are here on trial for what you have done to my manservant. What do you have to say for it."

"I have nothing to say sire, you know what I did. So do I. Do what you will. That boy will never be the same again."

"But Gunter, you are forgetting that there are other people in the room, tell them what you did to Merlin so that the trial will begin." Arthur had begun to lose his patience with this man.

"Oh dear, I simply can't remember what I did. Can you help me remember? Bring him in here please. It might jog my memory." That made Arthur snap.

"YOU DON'T REMEMBER WHAT YOU DID! YOU RAPED HIM AND YOU BEAT HIM AND YOU STARVED HIM!" At the king's outburst, several members in the room gasped. They knew this creature had done something bad, they didn't know it was that bad.

Gunter chuckled. "Oh little king, that's not all I did to the boy. I gave him a potion to mess with his mind. And it seems to be working! The boy will ruin himself. And I will watch from hell."

"What did you give him? If you tell me, you will die a swift death. I promise." The king didn't want this potion to ruin his friend. He had to do everything in his power to help his servant.

"I will never tell you, it might wear off on its own if you wait long enough." And with that, he grabbed a sword from a knight and killed himself.
