Bound Through Time (Douxie x reader)

Killahead: Part Two

Douxie and I run after her and we end up running into Jim and Claire

"Morgana's returned! She's enemy number one!" Douxie shouts to them

"Go! We'll hold the bridge!" Jim shouts back, blocking a Gumm-Gumm's sword with his own as he ushers us away

"Hisirdoux, yn, with me!" Merlin says, waving us towards the woods where Morgana had flown to, Archie following closely behind

We ran into a stone clearing and stood back to back, Archie flying in the air, Douxie with his bracelet qued up, merlin with his staff at the ready, and me with my staff in the form of a pair of daggers

The cold feeling I had intensified as we spun around, looking for the witch

"I feel dark magic," Douxie says aloud

"It means she's close," Merlin replies

Suddenly Archie lets out a gasp as Morgana's voice echos through the woods around us

"An old man, a foolish boy, and a backstabbing apprentice; lost as always. Do you dare run... or face my vengeance?" She says taunting us as she appears before us on a stone head

I scowl at her as I tense my arms, ready to strike

"Um, is there a third option?" Archie asks

Unbeknownst to us, hands made of a tree stretched toward us while our focus was on Morgana

I feel them slither up as they grab me by the neck, choking me

I drop my blades as I struggle to release their grip

They gripped Douxie and kept him still as he shouts my name

We then hear a grunt as they grab Merlin and yank him to the ground

One of the branches forms a spike and strikes him through the chest, causing him to collapse in pain

"Hisirdoux, yn, run!" Merlin shouts to us as we continue to struggle

My vision starts to blacken, but my anger causes me to release some magic, breaking their hold on me

Douxie and Merlin use their own magic to release the branches' grip on them

I let out a shout as I focus on Morgana, Douxie rushing over to Merlin

I summon my daggers back to my hand and throw them at her

She dodges them as they fly back to my hand

I go to throw them again but she lets out a cackle and flies away quickly before I can

I make a move to give chase but a groan grabs my attention

I snap my head back to see Douxie supporting Merlin

I rush over and grab Merlin's other arm, supporting him as well

"Merlin! You're injured!" Douxie tells him worriedly

"Badly," I add with a grim tone

He lightly pushes us away as he stretches, standing on his own

I stand close in case he were to collapse

"Hisirdoux, yn, if I should fall this day..." he says, pulling a scroll from his armor and handing it to Douxie

"'Heart of Avalon'?" Archie reads from over Douxie's shoulder

"'Building a tomb'? Why are you giving me this?" He asks Merlin with fear in his eyes

"You don't really think-" I say, reading over the scroll before shifting my gaze to Merlin
