Chapter 3 ~The mark of Nimueh~
It was the big day, Lady Morgana’s return. Bella and Arthur were waiting outside the door to the castle. Around them there were a lot of people. As the carrage with her came all the wolves howled for her return. She was a white wolf that looked quite similar to Bella, only that Morgana wasn’t that pure white like snow, she had hints of grey as well, a dirty white I suppose. She hugged Arthur and said “I’m glad to be back” It was her chance. Bella softly touched Morgana without her noticing. She then felt like she was going to faint. Bella realized she was a witch but she put her head down and said “My lady”. Morgana looked at her and sensed she was a witch as well. Bella quicly lowered her head and walked over to Gaiu...Gaius. “Gaius, Gaius!-“ she said as she stoped talking. Fear and horror where in her beautiful deep blue eyes. On the pacient bed there was a wolf that had no face… she then mumbled “Gaius…whats going on?” Gaius sighted and said “You were going to tell me Morgana is a witch?”. He was looking in this old book of magic. “Uhh yeah how did you know?” she asked in fear “What happened to this wolf?” she added in fear and horror. Gaius mumbled “It’s the mark of Nimueh, it makes the victims grow skin and fur over its face suffocating the victim. It can only be done with magic. You could help him, but now it is to late.” . He sighted. Bella asked “What are we going to do now?” . Gaius looked at her and said “We must get Morgana out of here before she kills more people”. “Don’t look at me…Gaius!!!!!!” Bella said as she did not want to find solutions. “Ugh fine” She mumbled.
Bella and Gaius walked to the king. Gaius quickly explained what was happening and said “It can only be caused by magic…”. Joseph looked at Gaius with wide eyes. He was about to say something but Arthur quickly said “We must find this evil witch before it kills more people!”. Bella softly said “That will not be a good idea, the witch could kill you sire.”. Gaius added “Exactly that’s why Bella will investigate” Bella looked at Gaius with wide eyes and thought ~SERIOUSLY?!~. They walked out of the castle to find themselves standing infront of Lady Morgana. Gaius lowered his head and said “My lady” as he walked away to his home. Lady Morgana was looking at Bella and said “You wus think can stop me from killing Arthur Pendragon or Joseph Pendragon?” Bella held her head high and said “If you are going to kill him, your going to have to pass me!”. As she said that Morgana’s eyes went bright yellow and Bella was thrown to the wall. On the pure white fur there was now a little blood coming from her head. Right at that moment the gates opened and Arthur came rushing out and pointed his sword at Morgana “Leave her alone Morgana!!!” He said as Joseph Pendragon, the king came. Bella closed her eyes and fainted. Arthur looked at her and stabbed Morgana. In that moment, Morgana’s eyes turned yellow and she ran away really fast. Later that day Bella woke up in her bed. Next to her were standing Gaius and Arthur. She looked at both of them and asked “What the flip happened?” . Gaius was pleased to see her awake and said smiling “Arthur saved your life Bella.” She looked at Arthur and thanked him”Thanks..” She said as she closed her eyes again for some rest. Arthur smiled and asked “When will she get better?”. Gaius answered “Soon she just needs some rest”. Arthur smiled and walked out the door thanking Gaius. Gaius looked at him leave and thought ~Indeed the prophecy is right…~
