Symphony of Sadness
Lancelot POV
I was angry. How could Arthur do this to Merlin? Even though Arthur hates to admit it is obvious that they are the best of friends. I hope Merlin hangs on, we are going to get him out of there, he's not going to die, i'm certain of it.
"Ah, Lancelot my man. Fancy a trip down the tavern?" hiccuped Gwaine who looked like he'd already visited.
"Merlin's been arrested." i stated. The smile on his face was soon wiped away.
"I'm going to kill Arthur!" shouted Gwaine. I grabbed Gwaine before he did something stupid
"I know you're angry, so am i, but you have to keep it in okay? We're going to get him out." i convinced Gwiane who was getting redder and redder.
He took a deep breath
"Okay." he huffed
"Good. You find Leon and Pervical. I'll find Elyan and Mordred. We will meet outside of Camelot's walls in 15 minutes" I instructed. Gwaine nodded and turned away, a determined look on his face. Gwaine headed towards their quarters and i headed towards the armoury.
It must have been the middle of the night as the courtyard was quiet except for the slap of boots on stone and the gentle winnying of the horses. I walked past the throne room and into the armoury. Luck was on my side as i saw Elyan and Mordred chatting, inspecting their armour.
"Lancelot, you look troubled." said Mordred
"Merlin's been arrested and we need to do something." I answered.
"What? How? When?" questioned Elyan
"I'll explain more later, right now we need to meet with Gwaine, Percival and Leon." i said. Mordred and Elyan nodded and followed me. We each grabbed cloaks and pulled them over our heads - we'd rather do this without anyone noticing. We kept to the shadows and made our way to the outside walls. Gwaine, Percival and Leon we're already waiting. They were pacing and un restless,
"Finally." moaned Gwaine.
"Let's run." i stated.
We ran and jumped and landed on the ground on all fours. Our fur protected us from the cold chills. Gwaine's ears were flat back and his teeth were beared as we sped through the forest. Our paws pounded on the earth, flying up mud. A munkjack deer and it's mother fled as it saw 5 wolves sprinting through the undergrowth. Nothing was going to stop us. Eventually we trotted up the hill and stopped, standing in a circle. We transformed back into humans, breathing heavily.
"Can you tell us the full story now?" questioned Gwaine impatiently.
"At the most recent battle against Morgana Merlin saved us all with this wolf powers and.... magic. Arthur saw and now he's been arrested." i explaine - hoping that they would all be understand Merlin's magic
"Merlin's got magic?" questioned Leon
"Yeah he has Leon... and so have i." admitted Mordred.
"Well..." started Gwaine
"That's suprising." finished Percival.
"Before we work out a plan i need to know if you're all fine with Merlin's magic." i pointed out
"Yes." answered Elyan
"Yes, we're wolves so nothing is really a suprise." agreed Leon
"Obviously." nodded Mordred
"Fine by me." smiled Percival
"Merlin's like a brother to me, i'll accept him in any shape of form." smiled Gwaine solemnly. Gwaine's words seemed to sink in and everyone stood there, reflecting. Merlin was a brother and friend to all of them, they couldn't let him die.
"So, what's the plan?" asked Percival
(A.N// I'm going to say the plan but if you'd rather it be a suprsie then skip a couple of pages ^-^)
"We're going to break him out tomorrow night. Merlin will go to court as planned and Arthur will sentence him to death. Merlin gets taken back to his cells. I will come and deliver his dinner with a message telling him to lay very still and shut his eyes when he hears the call of the owl. Leon, Percival and Gwaine you will inform the guards that you're expecting the cells. We will find Merlin 'dead' and we will take him outside. A horse will be ready for him with supplies and we will run beside him to Ealdor. Then Mordred and Elyan you wll inform Arthur of his 'death' and with some luck Arthur will realise his mistakes. If all goes to plan then we will tell him what happened and we can get Merlin back."
i explained
"It's risky but it should work." agreed Leon. Everyone agreed and it was decided that we would break him out tomorrow.
END OF PLAN
We all transformed back, and we howled. It was loud and solemn and echoed for miles. It was a call that reflected our anger and sadness. A member of our pack was being ill treated. Everyone stopped and i howled one last time, long and loud. I snapped my mouth and turned and nodded back at the rest of the pack. We were running again. Thundering back through the forest, barking at eachother now that we had a plan. Whilst we were running there was an almighty gust of wind. We looked up and saw an almighty dragon, its scales gold and it face wise and old. We stopped and stared up to the sky to see the dragon flex its wings and circle, lowering to land. Elyan whined, backing up a little. The ginormous dragon landed gracefully, we were all large wolves but this dragon was collosal. I looked over to Leon whos ears we slightly back - was this the dragon that Uther imprisoned under Camelot?
"Sir Leon, Sir Lancelot, Sir Mordred, Sir Elyan, Sir Gwaine." spoke the dragon, bowing his head respectfully. I decided that it was fine to transform and i returned to human form.
"Are you the Great Dragon - Kilgharrah?" i asked, voice a bit shaky.
"Indeed i am brave knight." answered Kilgharrah, "I've come to inform you of the future. Merlin is a key part of Albion's future. Your destinies are inter-twined. As Merlin's destiny is to protect Arthur yours is to protect Merlin. This is why i will agree to help you in your endevour to save the warlock." said Kilgharrah.
By now all of the other knights had transformed back into humans.
"How do we know that we can trust you?" questioned Gwaine
"I give you my word, a creature of the old religion never breaks a promise." reassured The Great Dragon. He uncurled one of his claws to reveal a horn.
"Only Merlin can summon me but with this horn you will be able to call me. Use it wisely young Knights as there are dark times approaching on the horizon. The future of Albion rests on your shoulders. I wish you luck." Said Kilgharrah and in the blink of an eye he flapped his wings and he was off, leaving no trace that he was ever there. I traced my fingers over the horn.
"We need to get back to Camelot." warned Mordred. I nodded in agreement and we were running once again. The horn was in my mouth as we ran through the Darkling woods. It was quiet except for the distant clicking of Serkets and the wind. We sped through the forest un-noticed and sneaked back into the city without a fuss.
"So remember the plan, we will strike tomorrow." i said and we went our seperate ways.
Arthur POV
I had finally got to sleep however i was soon awoken by a collection of howls. I sat up, and listened closer. It was a sad symphony of wolves howling, i could tell they were not howls of victory, they were howls of anger and missing. Missing.
Throughout the days that Merlin was unconciouss i did miss him - his idiotic chatter and witty remarks. It was too quiet without him.

Hi guys :) Hope you enjoyed that chapter, i've been trying to make these longer. I thought i hadn't written a wolfy scene in a while and this was a great time to write it.
Who's been watching Atlantis? I think it's been great so far! I still can't believe that Icarus is going to be in this series! I'm vair vair excited!
Has anyone been watching I'm a Celebrity? I'm really bored of Kendra doing all the bush tucker trials, it's getting boring hearing Kendra go "Oh my god." at everything that moves. :O
Update soon ^-^
