Chapter 1: An Uncertain Escape
Captain John Price, Captain John "Soap" Mactavish and their pilot, Nikolai was flying in their MH-6 "Little-Bird" helicopter after killing General Shepherd some miles off Site Hotel Bravo. However Soap was seriously wounded after he was stabbed in the chest by General and Price was seriously beaten up by Shepherd also after their last bout.
"Nikolai how far is that place that you're talking about? Soap is bleeding badly. We have to treat him there quick."
Asked Price who was sitting beside Nikolai in the cockpit of the helicopter
"Far enough to escape Shepherd's men Captain. It would be safe enough for Captain Mactavish to be treated there it's in India."
Answered Nikolai, but just then a blinding light and a boom was heard by the three and they had some very bad headaches.
"This can't be. What is happening? Captain Price we have a problem! Were lost, look! We're not in the desert anymore."
Yelled Nikolai who was checking his instrument panel for anomalies in the chopper and he glanced at Price who was staring ahead. He heard him reply
"I guess we are not going to India Nikolai… I guess we are on some place that we should not be in. And what tongue are we speaking?"
"I don't know Captain Price we have to get aid for Soap If we could find any. Wait I see a building there on the valley."
Replied Nikolai, he began to slow down and lower the altitude of the Little Bird to avoid detection.
"Captain Price we have to land and get someone to treat Soap's wound He is bleeding gravely."
Said Nikolai, Price agreed with a nod so Nikolai carefully landed the helicopter down in a clearing in the woods not far from the buildings. Price stepped out of the chopper as if one who was drunk and checked Soap's condition which is getting worse. Nikolai got out of the Little Bird to assist him. Price looked around for anyone to ask for assistance but no one was there so Price took of his hat he always wore and said to Nikolai.
"I am going to look for assistance Nikolai, take care of Soap and try to stop the bleeding as much as you could."
Then Captain Price started to walk towards the direction of the building because of the pain he received in the event earlier and General Shepherd's punches in his face. With a sigh of worry Nikolai drew his M9 pistol in his vest over his flight suit and loaded it in precaution and with the best of abilities tried to treat Captain Mactavish while waiting for Captain Price. He already took of Soap's combat vest and started applying bandages in his wound in addition of the first aid Captain Price did a while ago. Soap was now losing consciousness because of his stab wound and the ache in his head he just grumbled,
"My wound hurts and so is my head. Hey Nikolai, where's Price?"
Nikolai just replied,
"Off to get help Captain Mactavish. Don't move too much, stay with me. Wait I see someone but where's Captain Price?"
Nikolai drew his M9 from his holster and shouted to the strangers, two strange looking men who are quite alike,
"Who are you? We have wounded man we need your help!"
The stranger responded
"I am Elladan and here is my brother Elrohir. We saw your other companion lying unconscious so we helped him first. Fear not. Here in the house of our father Elrond you and your companions will be safe if you are not servants of the Dark Lord."
Nikolai just said as he holstered his M9,
"Yes we are not serving some person you said we are just strangers here. Now help me with this man he lost too much blood and he might die if no one treated him."
With that the two brothers helped carry Captain Mactavish to safety. Nikolai then asked as he hurried along them,
"Where are we if I may ask?"
"You are in Imladris, Rivendell in the common tongue, The Last Homely House East of the Sea."
