To Strike Fear In The Heart Of Men [T] Merlin/Arthur

[merlin-hols.livejournal.com]

Title: To Strike Fear In The Heart Of Men (A Canon Era/Hunger Games AU)
Recipient: oddishly
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Pairings: Merthur
Word Count: 6,149
Content Notes/Warnings: depictions of violence, injury, mentions of blood
Summary: They meet their fate just before the Games will make them enemies.
Arthur, a well trained carrier of eighteen years, joins voluntarily to prove his worth.
Merlin, a seventeen year old mage of the weakest rank, is reaped and forced to fight for his life.
On the training grounds the first wave of resentment turns into overwhelming attraction that leads to an affair under the cover of night.
Both revealing deeply hidden secrets in youthful ignorance, they say goodbye, knowing only one of them can survive.
But will they be able to let the Games run their course when they meet again?
Author's Notes:There's much I'd love to say here but can't just yet. So let me just say this much:

Thank you my beloved giftee oddishly for providing me with the buzzword <b>Hunger Games</b> in your prompt. It gave me the perfect opportunity to think of a scenario including elements from one of my most favourite franchises. And since you wrote, that you love canon era fics, I thought I could write you some Hunger Games during the Merlin era. I'd love to write the whole story one day, seeing all the ideas I came up with while writing. Ideas that I could unfortunately not include. Right now I can only give a glimpse into the scenario that's been building in my head since I started writing this short scene. But I hope you'll like it nonetheless.

This work was created as a part of the Merlin Holidays Fest. A big thank you to the mods for running this wonderful fest once again~
