A Warriors Hardest Battle

Chapter One: Elfish Run-Away's

Lara woke suddenly. She pushed a scared hand under her rucksack and felt the cool metal of her Elfish blade. She need to get out of here. The elves had told her to leave and had chased her from camp. What kind of family did that? The person she needed to get to was now close from the amount of running her had done over the past two days. She swiftly got to her feet and grabbed her rucksack along with her blade, sheathing it. She continued her silent run forward; her black hair streaming out behind her. From anyone else's point of view this would be an odd sight. Her elf ears were now visible along with a scar that started on her cheek and went down to the side of her neck. Her clothes were ripped in odd places and her feet were bare. Her arrows and bow were hung over her back haphazardly and she was going abnormally fast. Her sheathed sword was hitting her bare legs as she ran; but she ignored the pain and pushed herself over a log, landed gracefully and ran on. She wore a white shirt ripped at the sides and a leather corset around her waist. Her legs were partially covered with a forest green skirt that looked as if it had once been longer. Her hair was waist length and was currently waving in the air due to her fast paced run.

She had unusual forest green eyes that had specks of gold, but this time her eyes were squinted with tears because of the air that whipped into them. She knew she needed to reach him soon. Otherwise the elves will find her and probably kill her. Quickly she crouched and waited. She was insight of where He lived. She needed to get into there undetected. She caustically started into the non-wooded area; aware that if someone looked towards where she was, they would see her.

Springing up she sprinted across the ground and up to the front of the building. Lights were on around the towers and some windows were open welcoming the cool summer breeze. She climbed the steps and up to the main doors. They towered above her menacingly; almost daring her to knock. She knocked quietly and waited, hoping someone would hear. After a few minutes she knocked louder and waited again. When this didn't work she got rid of all fear and banged louder on the doors repeatedly; stopping only when she heard footsteps on the other side. She stood back and waited for them to remove the wards.

"Hello?" said a voice. It was a woman and from the sound of her voice Lara knew she was a very strict young woman.

"I need to speak to Dumbledore." said Lara. Her elfish voice still had its accent and sounded hurried; almost afraid.

"Yes, well he has retired to his chambers for the evening," the woman said. She had light brown hair that was pulled serverly up in a bun. She wore rounded glasses and a navy blue nightgown.

"I cannot stay out here." Lara said hurridly.

"And why is that?" the woman asked causitly. She most likely spotted Lara's weapons.

"That is very personal to me" Lara said quietly. She nervously glanced over her shoulder; almost expecting the elves to come out from the forest that surrounded the castle.

"Come with me." the woman said swiftly and pushed the door wider for Lara.

Lara slipped in through the door. The woman closed the entrance door and put the wards back on. Lara looked around. It appeared as though they were in a courtyard. The woman walked past Lara with a nod of her head to her. Lara followed silently. The woman turned to see if Lara was following her and continued her way across the court yard to another door which she opened and ushered Lara in.

"Now I must ask you before I let you see Dumbledore, who are you?" the woman asked her.

"My name is Lara, I am a elf from the Haven. You might have heard of it." Lara told her.

"Yes, I have heard of it. But why are you here?" she asked.

"They have banished me and if I stayed there they would have killed me." She admitted quietly.

"Very well. You may call me Professor Mcgonagall." she said.

Lara nodded and followed Professor Mcgonagall down a empty corridor.

They stopped at a stone statue of a eagle. "Lemon Drop" Mcgonagall said to the eagle and it slowly turned away to reveal a sprial staircase. Professor Mcgonagall walked on and motioned for Lara to do the same.

"One more thing, what is your last name?" Professor Mcgonagall asked her before opening the door to his office.

"I do not have one" Lara replied and walked ahead of Mcgonagall into Professor Dumbledore's office.
