The Greatest Hero of All Time

~Camelot~

Sasha's POV:

With following the yellow brick road. The carpet flies me and Ruby into the next realm-Camelot.

According to legend,in England with the Knights-brave and bold. The good King has died and no one could decide who is to be the next rightful heir to the throne.

The land is then torn apart by war or it is to be saved by a miracle alone. The miracle does appear in London town. The sword in the stone. And below the hilt,in letters of gold,are written these words:

'Whoso pulleth out this sword of this stone
And anvil is right wide King or Queen of England.' Though many tried for the sword with all of their strength,none could move the sword,not stir it.

So,the miracle has not worked, and England is still without a ruler. And in time,the marvelous sword has been forgotten. In England, it was a dark age without law and without order. Men lived in fear of one another for the strong preyed upon the weak.

We begin our hike. A hike through the harsh terrain and it has become extremely tiring. I can feel my legs and arm burning. We soon enter another forest and we find a house.

I knock on the door and a man answers, "So,you did drop in for tea,after all" He lets us sit in some seats and he pours us some tea, "Oh. You three are a bit late,you know."

I ask, "Oh,we are?" Man, "Yes. Now,my name is Merlin. Who are you,lassies?" Ruby, "My name is Ruby" I say, "My name is Sasha" Ruby, "Is that a stuffed owl?"

The owl comes alive, "Stuffed? I beg your pardon!" I shout, "He's alive!" Ruby, "And he talks!" I say, "That surprises you? We've been to Wonderland!"

Owl, "Certainly a great deal better than you do" He flew into his birdhouse and Merlin says, "Oh,come on. Archimedes. I want you to meet Ruby and Sasha along with..." I say, "Carpet."

Merlin, "Carpet. Now you must forgive them. They are only kids" Archimedes, "I don't see no kids" I start to apologize, "I'm sorry that I..." Merlin, "That's all right. He's much too sensitive."

I ask, "How did you know that we would be..." Merlin, "That you three would be dropping in? I happen to be a wizard. A soothsayer, a prognosticator. I have the power to see into the future. Centuries into the future."

Merlin, "I've ever been there,lass and I've seen all these things. They're only plans and small models of course." Ruby, "You mean, you can see everything before it happens?"

Merlin, "Yes,everything" Archimedes, "Everything,Merlin?" Merlin shook his head rapidly, "No,no,not everything. I admit,I didn't know whom to expect for tea. But as you can all see,I figured the exact place."

I say, "Wow. You are very clever,sir" Merlin, "Well,never mind the "sir" just plain Merlin will do. Sugar?" I beam, "Yes, I would. Please" Merlin, "All right."

The sugar pours itself in my cup first, "How is your schooling,Sasha?" I say, "Very good. I'm in high school now" Merlin, "Very good. That's good. You can't grow up without a decent education. I'm going to be a tutor for you."

I say, "I'm afraid I can't, we need to be on our way. Henry!" Ruby calms me down, "Calm down,Sasha. You'll see him again soon. You are going to be the one to rescue him."

I whine, "But how much longer do I have to do this? This yellow brick road seems to go on forever and ever!" Merlin, "Patience is a virtue,my dear. Nobody ever said that being patient was easy."

Merlin, "We shall pack and be on our way." He magically packed his bag, "I'll be with you in a minute,girls. Packing is almost done" It becomes a chaotic mess with a bunch of messed up words but everything does get packed up.

I say, "Wow. What a way to pack. You've got to teach me that trick!" Merlin, "Now just a minute,girl. How else would you get all this stuff into one suitcase. I'd like to know."

The carpet and Ruby nod with me when I say, "We think it's wonderful" Merlin, "Oh. Yes,it is rather. Now,don't you get any foolish ideas that magic will solve all your problems. Because it won't!"

We soon leave Merlin's place and we continue to walk across the endless yellow brick road, "Everybody's butting their heads against a brick wall. All muscle and no mentality."
