Title: Bait For the Heir of Gondor

Author: grissom500

Summary: what would have happened if Legolas and Pip were taken by the orcs instead of pip and merry? What if the orcs actually GOT to Saruman?

Rating: PG some legolas torture, nothing too horid. Minimal blood.

Disclaimer: HA yeah right I own them. I wish. I'm not making money off of them either. All belongs Tolkien.

"Did you bring the halflings?" Saruman asked.

"We got one."

"WHAT?!"

"But My Lord, we did get an elf."

The anger fell from the wizards face, "Who?"

"I don't know."

"Well bring him before me then!" Saruman snapped.

The orc captain disappeared and returned, moments later with three of his men. One carried a red haired hobbit and set him gently at the wizard's feet. The other two roughly threw a large, willowy elf beside the halfling.

"Ah, the young Greenleaf. Not only have you brought an elf, you have brought a prince."

"What will we do with them Lord Saruman?" Wormtounge asked from the wizard's side.

"We will use them to lure the Ring to us. And, if not the Ring, at least Aragorn."

"Aragorn!" Wormtounge said alarmed, "Why would we want him here?"

"Because he is the heir of Gondor and Sauron will cast favor upon the one who brings Him one of His greatest enemies."

"How will you draw him here My Lord? Surely he is not as stupid as to just walk into Isengard?"

"Perhaps not. We will make sure he comes. He and the elf share a bond, weather known or not, for they are both of royal blood and they are both sensitive to the other. Aragorn WILL come, or we will deliver these young ones to Sauron in his stead."

Wormtounge chuckled, "Tell me My Lord, how will you torture the elf to make his friend come?"

"I need not do anything save lock him in some chambers and check on him from time to time," Saruman said.

"I don't understand Lord Saruman."

The wizard sneered, "Of course you don't, I will explain it to you. You need do naught to a wood-elf save imprison him where he cannot see the sun and make sure no trees can talk to him."

"Do you hope to get from him the Ring's location?"

"No, he would die first I have no doubt, but the halfling may prove useful for that."

And so Saruman lay a spell upon them and placed on each of their wrists a bronze bracelet.
