Bam! I awoke with a jolt as my head hit the table I was sitting at. What time is it? Surely I could not have spent the entire night in the library? Dusting myself off, I pulled the lever to exit the secret section of magical lore.

I exit the library, and nearly end up bumping into Merlin. Instinctively, I muttered a "Good Morning to you too." He sighed and grabbed my wrist so that I'm following him.

"I think you were right about Morgana. And did you fall asleep in the library?"

Instantly I feel more alert. "You have no proof that I have done such a thing. How dare you accuse me of such."

Merlin gave me a weird look and I sighed. "Yes. Tell anyone and I'll have you hanged, regardless of your importance in keeping this kingdom running."

"You think I'm important?" I glance at his smiling face.

"Shut up Merlin. Do you want to get caught?"

His smile dropped immediately. "Right, Sorry."

We followed in silence, careful not to make a sound as we venture further into the forest. I grasp his arm as Morgause appears. I hate her and what she has done to Morgana. What she has done to me. What she plans to continue doing.

I take a deep breath in an attempt to calm my magic threatening to expose us. Now is not the time to let loose, it is the time to watch and listen to the traitor's plan.

The blonde high priestess sauntered up to Morgana. "Sorry you had to wait. There was much to discuss."

"But your visit was successful?"

"Cendred's army ride for Camelot on my command." I remember a time when Morgana used to look at me with the same fondness in her eyes.

"There is nothing you cannot do. It is you that gives me strength, sister. How goes the battle for Uthur's mind?"

Morgana spoke once more. "When Cendred's army marches on Camelot, you will find a kingdom without a leader."

"Finally, we are ready."

"Not quite." Morgana turned towards us, causing us to duck down instinctively. "Merlin and Arianna suspect me."

"Have they told Arthur?"

"Not yet, but they will."

"We must stop them."

I slowly close my eyes and when I open them again, I could feel the golden magic ready to strike out and protect us.

"That shall not be hard, for they are already here."

We both stand up and I throw Morgana, Morgause and her men to the ground in one fell swoop. I ushered Merlin in front of me as we ran. We were surrounded.

"Mmm, you've grown better. But not good enough."
