3rd Person POV:
Y/N sat curled up in a chair, cup of coffee in her hands. Merlin was sat in the chair across from her and drinking tea. The two friends chatted as they had for thousands of years.
"Remember when Lance would suggest you use your magic?" Y/N laughed a bit before tears pricked her eyes, "God, Lance. Just saying his name hurts like hell."
"I know, Y/N. Talking about any of them hurts." Merlin said, a stray tear rolling down his face
Y/N cleared her throat, "Uh, have you talked to Leon recently? Last I heard he was somewhere in Missouri volunteering at a Least of These."
"No, I haven't, but he's supposed to call later today, check in and whatnot." Merlin replies
Suddenly, the home started shaking and the two looked out to the lake. The surface was churning and sucking in like a vortex. Y/N and Merlin made eye contact. Both looking at their modern attire, if this was what they thought it was.... they were going to have one hell of a confused kingdom on their hands.
"Do you think-?"Y/N started
"It has to be-."Merlin continued
"Albion." They said together before rushing outside
Y/N kept hold of her coffee as they ran to the shore of the lake. Merlin and her had lived in the same house for two thousand years, waiting for Arthur and the others return. Finally, it was time.
Out of the water rose Arthur and Guinevere. Merlin and Y/N rushed into the water to help them out. Continuing with anyone else who came. Gwaine and Percival were next, then Elyan and Gaius, then a few villagers from Camelot, then Mordred, Balinor, Hunith, and finally Lancelot. Of course, the rest of Camelot followed suit.
Once everyone was stood on the shore, most of them dry except Merlin and Y/N, the two stood before everyone with smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes.
"Call Leon?" Merlin asked
"Call Leon."Y/N affirmed
Merlin went to the house and grabbed his mobile, dialing Leon's number. He brought out a towel and a jacket for Y/N, trying to protect her from the chilling wind that had picked up that fall.
"So, uh, welcome to Albion!" Y/N shouted, "You all know Merlin and I, well, you used to anyway. So, welcome back to Earth!"
Merlin looked at her strangely. Hanging up his call.
"Was that good? Did I do good?" Y/N whispered to him
Merlin shrugged, "I don't know, but Leon said he can be in tomorrow if he can get the next flight here."
Y/N nodded, "Where are they going to stay?"
"Uh, I can go get those 14 person tents from Walmart?" Merlin asked
"Yeah, take my car." Y/N said, "Keys are on my hook."
Arthur steadily approached the two of them and pulled them in for a tight hug.
"Uh, so, Merlin is going to go get tents for you all to stay in while we teach you about the modern world!" Y/N shouted pulling out of Arthur's embrace, "I will be right back with some blankets for all of you, just stay here!"
Y/N went inside and came out carrying a mound of blankets. Until, the knights each came and took some from her, flashing smiles and passing them around to the villagers. Mordred approaches and tried to take the rest of them. Before he could walk off to give them out, Y/N grabbed his shoulder.
He looked at her fearfully.
"It's good to see you, Mordred."Y/N smiled, maybe he was redeemable
Once the villagers had blankets, Y/N led Arthur, Gwen, Gwaine, Percival, Elyan, Lancelot, and Gaius into the house. She led them to the sitting room and left to get them tea and coffee.
"So, it's been two thousand years. How are all of you doing?"Y/N asked sitting in her chair
"We're doing alright, I'd guess. Considering we just came out of a lake and you are wearing pants." Gwaine said incredulously
Y/N rolled her eyes, "Merlin and I had to evolve with the times. Women rarely wear skirts anymore and dresses are pretty much just for special occasions."
The seven stared at her.
"Leon should be in tomorrow, he was trying to get the first flight here. But, lord knows how that went." Y/N said, trying to keep the subject moving
Lancelot stood up and pulled her into a tight hug, which she quickly returned. Percival soon joined, along with Elyan, Gwaine, and Arthur. Gaius pulled Gwen in and they joined the fray. Until they all heard someone clear their throat.
Merlin was stood in the doorframe.
"Uh, I need help unloading the tents." He said sheepishly
