Chapter Two: Lies come out and the Trust of One
It was four weeks after Kumal tried to kill herself at the fountain of life. After that little incident she wasn't aloud anywhere without someone going with her. Estel was the one who went with her the most refusing to leave her side.
One night while he was on duty guarding Kumal she sat at the other end of the room. Razam came waltzing in with everyone with her.
Razam stood there with her arms crossed," We have to tell you something."
Estel made his way over to Kumal and stood right behind her," Well tell her now while she has nowhere to run."
Elorhir started saying it fast wanting to get it over with not wanting to deal with it anymore," Razam is an elf who is the sister of us and Arwen. We are twins. Shendal and Yuku are elves to." He stopped to see the reaction of Kumal who looked on the verge of tears. "They have lived here all their lives."
Before Elladan could explain Razam interrupted," Actually we are like triplets."
"She is right but that is not the point of the story." Elladan sighed and then went back to the matter at hand," You were put on Earth by your parents. My sisters and her bodyguards went to Earth to protect you and then bring you back. They hid their appearance as elves the whole time. Stu is a Ranger in Estel's group and Estel is brother to. "
All waited to see what her reaction would be and she basically started to cry. Estel tried to comfort her but Kumal stood up and ran out the door. She ran through the halls not even caring that they were calling her name or running after her. There were elves in the hall that were watching her or trying to stop her for Estel.
She reached outside and stopped at the sight. Kumal looked for a place to go but had no clue of where to go. Slowly seeing a building with stable hands in it she ran into the building. The sight of all the horses there made her nervous but she had no choice but to stay there.
Kumal walked over to a pure brown horse and opened the stall door. She hurried and saddled the horse and soon mounted him. As she rode out she ignored the stable hands yells for her to come back with the horse she just stole.
She rode on knowing Razam and her family and friends would come follow her. Not knowing where she was riding, while actually she did know where she was going. Kumal pulled out a map and looked to see where Lotherien was. As she rode she realized it would take weeks to reach but had no choice. Kumal had to ride there for her own sake. The elves there would know how to help her in this situation.
It was going on dark as she rode on through the day and some of the night. She stopped for the night thinking of making a fire but choose otherwise. Instead she sat in the cold wind breeze crying. How was she going to trust these elves of Rivendell, Estel, and her old friends that claimed they were her friends?
As the night drifted on she slowly drifted to sleep. That night the elven horse kept watch over the strange mortal who stole him from Rivendell.
Kumal stared at herself as she was captured by Rangers in the forest. She had run off once again from the people she wanted to trust and who were supposedly trying to help her.
She ran off into the woods after they tried to do something for her but she didn't know what they were trying to do. Once again she took the brown horse and rode off into the woods only this was when they were on a journey.
As she rode through the forest she kept hearing noises all around her. She kept riding on and finally she heard a male's voice behind her and horses running. Kumal glanced behind her to see ten or twenty rangers behind her. Trying to get away she was forced to stop.
The rangers came closer into view and she stayed mounted to the horse not moving. Rangers dismounted from their horses and pulled her off of the horse. They tied her up and dragged her into their camp with them. As they built a fire Kumal saw one man who looked like Estel.
In fact the face reminded her of Estel so much that it woke her up from her dream shaking all over. She looked around her to see her surroundings making sure she wasn't being watched. Slowly she stood up and went further into the woods. Her stomach was growling and she couldn't take it anymore. Kumal wouldn't eat anything they gave her at Rivendell afraid of what they might have done to it.
In Rivendell they all ran to the stables. Noticing that Kiren was gone they all thought the same thing. Razam watched Elladan and Elorhir saddle their pure white horses.
Elladan sighed," Father I am going to find her."
Elorhir went up to his brother," I am going with him to father."
Razam made a noise," I am going with you guys to. Estel isn't up for a trip right at this moment, he's to devastate and Arwen is trying to comfort him." She paused with a smile on her face, "Besides she took my favorite horse to."
"Kiren was my favorite horse to and I got to ride him." Yuku stated looking at her.
"Yeah you only got to ride him because I allowed you to. Just as a friend need I remind you?" Razam informed Yuku seeing the look on her friends face.
Stu turned to her," You do know that Kumal isn't going to like this one bit. After all she doesn't trust any of us. So how do you propose to get her to come back with you?"
"Oh she is coming back whether she likes it or not, that means even if I have to drag her back here I will." Razam said getting irritated.
Elrond made no protests," When you find her bring her back and bring her to me." He looked at all the questioning looks around him and then smiled," She is finally trusting me. I will be able to get her to trust me completely and then get her to trust you all. Then we can help her."
The three rode off into the morning air in search of Kumal. Razam was in the lead on her black stallion with her brothers behind her. As they rode on they knew they were on the right track for Elladan had really good elven senses.
Seven days had passed without any rest only stopping to eat. Elladan and Elorhir kept looking over at their sister seeing that she was dead on her feet. They tried to stop for more than just food and water but Razam wouldn't hear of it. She kept pushing on making her brothers push on with her. Razam didn't want to stop until they found Kumal and her brothers felt the same way.
They all felt sorry for the devastated Estel that was back at Rivendell. The three of them wanted to get Kumal back for him but Elladan also wanted to get her back. Although they all knew that he had a crush on Kumal and she was going to be Estel's he could still like her. They had no choice but to ride out to find her. Besides they had to find her for she was going to help them in this world.
Riding on they came to a camp that had no fire. Elorhir dismounted his white stallion and looked around. Seeing no fire he was going to tell his brother and sister but they already knew. They too were dismounted from their horses to help their brother search.
Mounting their horses knowing that there was a sign of Kumal being there. They rode on knowing that they rode for at least three weeks. All three of them knew where Kumal was heading but didn't think she knew herself.
Back with Kumal as she was searching for something to kill so she could eat it. Her stomach kept growling as she pressed on looking for food. As she walked on she spotted a deer. Kumal unsheathed an elven sword that she stole from Elladan.
Slowly creeping up on the gorgeous tasty looking eight point buck. Kumal kept creeping up on the buck not wanting to wait any longer for the food that she would be getting. As she went in to kill the deer something made her stop.
A blonde haired male elf spoke out demanding, "Daro."
Kumal looked at the tree behind her at the lowest branch on it. She saw the blonde haired elf who yelled the elvish word at the deer that she didn't understand at all. As she turned back around she saw the eight point buck run away from the yelling of the elf. Just great she thought, there goes my dinner.
The blonde haired elf," I know of who you are."
Kumal started to cry," Leave me alone. Please." She stopped talking and then cried even harder," I just came to get help from the Lotherian elves."
The elf was taken aback. He didn't know what to make of it. He didn't know who she was or what to do. Just has he was about to go over to her he heard horses in the distance. Feeling the presence of three elves he stood waiting for them to ride into the clearing.
Elladan, Elorhir, and Razam rode into the clearing. Razam being asleep unaware of them finding Kumal. Elladan dismounted and rushed over to Kumal. She backed away from him not wanting to be near him.
Kumal looked at the three noticing that there were only three of them and put her head down. She didn't see Estel anywhere. They didn't bring him with them. Why they hell they didn't bring him with them. WAIT WHAT THE HELL WAS SHE THINKING. She didn't want any of them to be there. Yet somehow they came.
Did they actually care so much for her that they would come in search for her. A part of her wanted to believe it but another part of her told her not to believe it. The part telling her to believe it was stronger than the part telling her not to believe and she was forced to listen to it.
Elladan stopped," Are you alright, Kumal."
Kumal cried answering him for the first time," I'm fine. Leave me alone."
Elorhir sighed and stated," Haldir we will be staying in Lotherian for a while." Elorhir looked at his little sister," Besides Razam needs to rest. We have been riding for three weeks straight and she hasn't slept until now."
Unaware of anything going on around her. Razam's horse stopped and Razam snapped out of her sleep," What. Why did we stop. We are supposed to be looking for…."
She stopped as she saw Kumal standing in the clearing with Elladan beside her, Elorhir on the other side of her and Haldir behind her. They had her cornered. That's exactly what she wanted.
Razam pointed," To find you."
Kumal kept looking for Estel and Razam could see that," Where is Aragorn."
" I thought you didn't like him." Razam smiled.
" I don't like him."
Elladan and Elorhir were laughing and finally Elorhir stated," You are coming back with us."
" I am not going back with you. I came to Lotherian for a reason you know." Kumal demanded.
Razam looked into her eyes," To get help from the elves. The only way you will get help from the elves of Lotherian is if you have permission from us first."
" How do you know that."
Elladan and Elorhir were now laughing even harder. They were pretty much on the ground laughing. As they did this they all looked over at Razam and the two brothers sighed.
Sleep was overcoming Razam once again. She fell forward on her horse and fell asleep again. While she was asleep they took Kumal and headed to Lotherian. Elladan put her on his horse with him and made sure that Kiren followed.
At the woods of Lotherian they left their horses just outside of forest. Walking into the woods they had no trouble getting in considering they knew their grandchildren were coming. They came to a ton of stairs and Kumal thought they were the prettiest things ever. All started to climb the stairs only one of them thinking it was taking for ever to get up the damn stairs.
Once to the top Galadriel walked over to them with a huge smile on her face. She led them into the only place safe enough to talk without them being overheard. The room they walked into was the prettiest room Kumal ever walked into. The walls were all silver and there was a pool of water behind them as they stood there and white steps in front of them.
Galadriel spoke lightly," Hello granddaughter."
Razam said through a yawn," We were looking for Kumal and she wishes to get help from you."
Galadriel turned to Kumal and saw all the fear in her," You have so much fear inside. You must learn to trust the people near you before your fear destroys you."
" How do you know that." Kumal asked fright in her voice.
" My dear child. You wished to seek help from me. Well I am going to give you all the help I can right now." Waiting to see if she was listening Galadriel went on," You have been hurt so much in your life on Earth and in Middle Earth. After all those hurtful times you have feared everything. You have never trusted anybody."
She paused taking a moments rest and then went on," That fear and those memories are keeping you from ever trusting anyone, having friends, and loving Estel." Once again pausing to look at Kumal she then continued," This fear will destroy you the longer you deny help and it will also kill the ones who try to help you. You already trust one. Elrond made you trust him and now you do."
Galadriel took yet another rest and finally come to the end of her story," You want to be able to trust Estel but the fear is keeping you from doing so. You must return and get help. Let Estel help you."
Kumal started to ask a question," What about the dreams and the dreams that make me act them out."
" There is no cure for your dreams or the acts of the dreams. If there is a way to stop them I will find it and give it to you." Gladrail answered Kumal's question.
" What do they mean though, why is it me that has this problem and no one else."
" I do not know what they mean but we are all trying to find out. You have them from the elves. Your mother and father were being hunted by Saron and his army." Gladrail stated softly and then told the rest," In a desperate attempt to save you they called a meeting and all elves attended. We all gave you this curse to have this type of thing happen to you in hope that one day you would remember everything. Saron wanted you so you could help him destroy middle earth. That's why you were taken to earth. That is the full truth."
Kumal actually found herself wanting to go back to Rivendell and trust all of them. She thought it was strange but what Gladrail was saying actually sank into her head.
Getting showed to their rooms she felt the fear inside her and she didn't want to go back to Rivendell. She would have to face the journey home with Elladan, Elorhir, and Razam. She didn't trust them all at. As she went into her beautiful silver room she saw Haldir walk out of the woods.
Slowly crawling into the soft bed she immediately fell asleep barely touching her head to the pillow. No dreams came to her that night and she was kind of thankful for it. Not wanting the dreams at all she was hoping she would never have them again.
In Rivendell, Estel was still as devastated as ever. He didn't come out of his room and felt like dying right then and there. Elrond and Arwen tried to get him out but he wouldn't come out even to eat.
Finally one day he decided he was going to take measures into his own hands. He unlocked his door made sure the coast was clear before he went out of the room. Running to the stalls he saddled his horse and was about to mount him when he felt a hand on his shoulder.
Elrond turned him around," Estel be careful on your journey."
Estel looked his father in the eye," I was hoping you would accompany me on the journey."
" Son I can't come along with you. I will be waiting for you all when you get back." Elrond sighed looking at his son.
" I will ride alone then."
" I do not want you to ride alone. You will take Shendal, Yuku, and Stu along with you." He saw the irritation in his eyes, "They will be some help to you. Go to Lotherian, you will find them there. Take all the time you need. Please just make sure all of you come back in one piece."
Estel only nodded to the request that Elrond asked of him. He wasn't in the mood to answer any of his father's questions or requests. All he wanted to do was ride to Lotherian get his brothers and sisters back, maybe even get Kumal back as well.
Riding fast and hard to Lotherian he was forced to stop from a terrible storm. As the rain came hurling down and the lightening came crashing he couldn't light a fire. That night was long and very uncomfortable for him. Estel didn't mind sleeping on the ground it was just the fact that he didn't feel like being cold at the moment. He very much would have liked to ride on but after four days of riding he was forced to stop, his horse needed to rest.
In the morning he woke to the hot sunshine and the smell of fresh air. He didn't bother to eat at that moment he mounted his horse and started out. Planning on riding the whole way to Lotherian he didn't want to stop once again.
As he rode his mind was full of thoughts. Every single one turning back to Kumal who needed his help. Why did he have feelings for her. He loved Arwen but he couldn't keep loving her. He needed to seek the answers to the question lingering inside his head.
Riding for five more days and keeping his horse going for another eight days Lotherian came into view. He let his horse lay outside of the woods and walked into the forest. The forest was quiet and peaceful. Finding his way through quite easily he made his way up the stairs and in front of the pool of water. Looking for any signs of the elves he left looking for them.
Once out of the area he came to find Elladan and Elorhir. They looked up as he came into the area. Both had smiles on their faces as he walked in. Both stood up and greeted him not telling him if Kumal was ok or Razam.
Kumal came walking out with Galadriel," I don't have a thing for…."
She stopped as she saw Aragorn standing in the area with Elladan and Elorhir. Elladan smiled at the thought of Kumal would have said if she hadn't seen Estel standing there.
Estel walked over to Kumal," You're alright."
Kumal didn't look at him," It's not like it matters. Does it."
" I came looking for you. These three were taking too long and I was really worried about you." Estel told her as Razam came walking into the room with Haldir, Rumal, and Orphan.
" Estel you came." Razam smiled seeing him.
Galadriel interrupted their conversation," Kumal would like to talk to you all." She turned to Estel," She needs you to listen the most."
They all stood there waiting for Kumal to start telling them what she needed to tell them. Kumal glanced at them all but didn't say anything to them. Estel made his way over to her and stood there hoping it would give her some comfort. He was right. As he stood there beside her she looked up to him and smiled faintly but it was defiantly a smile.
Kumal finally spoke," I am sorry I have been acting the way I have been."
Elladan spoke first," its fine. We can't blame you for the way you acted."
" I would like to try and get to trust you." Kumal smiled at them and then looked sadly at Aragorn and walked over to Razam," I'm sorry Aragorn but I can't love you. You and Arwen are in love and you must stay with her."
Razam crossed her arms and turned to Kumal," They may be in love but Aragorn loves you and besides Aragorn needs someone better than Arwen."
Elladan and Elorhir busted out laughing at the fact that their sister blurted out. They knew she disliked Arwen a lot.
Elladan stopped laughing while Elorhir was still laughing," You said that about your own sister Arwen."
Razam didn't see any problem with this," I dislike her with a passion."
" I want to be with you not Arwen." Estel said changing the subject back to the problem.
" How will she deal with it." Kumal asked.
" She will have a big problem with it but as long as my brother is involved she will have to deal with it." Razam demanded.
Stopping their conversation they walked out of the area. They went into the woods and Aragorn unsheathed his sword. He hadn't had a chance to hunt anything he had the urge to do so. Eyeing out the area he spotted a rabbit eating grass.
Aragorn quietly walked close enough to it so he could kill it. The rabbit didn't have time to jump as Aragorn's sword made contact with it. Smiling to himself he picked up the dead rabbit and watched as Elladan and Elorhir killed two more. It was settled then, they all wanted rabbit for dinner that night. Seeing baby ones he held up his hand stopping all from shooting them.
Walking further into the woods they heard something in the woods. Razam went to check it out wanting to be a part of the hunting that day. She slowly walked around the bush with and arrow fitted to her bow. Letting the arrow fly at the target she heard the grunt of the boar she just shot. Elorhir came over and picked the boar up smiling at his sister.
As they walked back to take back their dinner, Haldir met them at the entrance. He smiled seeing the three rabbits and the boar. Three servants came running over taking the game that they shot and ran off once again to get it prepared. They walked back in with Haldir talking to Razam the whole way.
At the top Razam ran over to Rumal and gave him a hug with a smile on her face.
Kumal smiled thinking she figured out the elf," So those two are an item."
Rumal glared at her not answering. Orphan was behind her laughing low so Kumal didn't hear him. Elladan and Elorhir were on the ground laughing out loud at what they just heard. Estel put his hand to his face and didn't do anything.
Kumal turned to Orphan," Does he not speak English."
" He doesn't like the statement you made." Orphan tried to say between laughing.
" Oh so they aren't an item" Kumal asked confusion in her voice.
Razam couldn't help but laugh herself," We aren't an item. Trust me. There is no way there would be an us." Then she added to Rumal," No offense."
" None taken. I know who you are with." Rumil laughed also.
Before any of them could say anything else. Shendal, Yuku, and Stu came running in. None of them seemed able to talk and they grabbed Estel's arm and started to drag him with them. As he was being dragged he looked at Razam who was just as clueless as he was.
Following them was the only thing they seemed to be able to do. Making it to the edge of the forest they all looked around. All eyes stopped on an elf that was lying on the ground covered in blood. Aragorn and Kumal ran over and Aragorn turned him over. The elf's fair face was covered in blood as was the rest of his body including his hair.
Aragorn picked him up and carried him back into the realm of Lotherian. Galadriel saw them coming in and Haldir took the elf from him and saw the worry in his eyes. They all knew very well who the elf was. If he was here then what was going on in Mirkwood.
Kumal gasped finally realizing it," That's Rirmik the messenger of Mirkwood for Prince Legolas and King Thrandail."
" I must leave." Aragorn quickly said.
" You don't know if anything happened to them in Mirkwood." Rumil tried to calm him down.
" I have to go. There must be something wrong at Mirkwood." Estel argued with Rumil.
The elf messenger muttered quietly without opening his eyes," Under attack." Then he fell quiet again.
Estel started to walk out," I am going to Mirkwood alone. Meet me back in Rivendell."
" Don't leave. Take me with you." Kumal ran to him.
" I will most defiantly not take you with me. I will not let you die." Aragorn said urgently.
Razam finally said something," The hell I'm not going with you."
Aragorn sighed," I'm not risking yours or anybody's life."
" There is no way that I am not going with you. I need to make sure that…" Razam started but stopped as Kumal stared at her.
Aragorn glared at her," Legolas will be fine."
" He is always at the front lines whenever something like this happens." Razam yelled in elvish.
" You can come with me then and you're our brothers but Kumal is staying." Aragorn yelled right back in English.
Razam's anger went down a little bit but she still argued in elvish," You have to take Kumal with us. She can help us and I know without a doubt that you wouldn't leave her here if it was an order from the king."
Seeing the sign of defeat he walked out with the six behind him. They mounted their horses with Aragorn in the lead. Riding fast Razam soon went to the lead riding way ahead of them. She never stopped once until a storm hit. Lightening came down and crashed right beside camp. Razam jumped as it hit and she ran to Elorhir and Elladan.
Elorhir sighed as she shook beside him and Elladan laid a hand on her shoulder to give her comfort. Kumal sat by Aragorn not flinching one bit from the storm but she did eye. She eyed the clouds in the sky knowing that she wouldn't be able to see any of the clouds if they were different colors.
Aragorn saw her eyeing the sky and put a hand around her surprised to see she didn't pull away from him at all. Kumal looked away from the sky and looked at Aragorn in the eyes. She actually felt comfort there and laid her head down on his shoulder. Kumal fell asleep quickly being tired from the day's ride. Being tired himself he didn't want to move afraid that he might wake Kumal up.
All falling asleep that night the storm slowed down a tad bit and then started up again. Barely getting any real sleep that night Razam stayed up and took watch although she had a felling nothing was going to happen. Waiting until she saw some sign of dusk she went over and started to wondering around.
The dusk hit the eyes of Aragorn and Kumal waking them up before Razam could. Aragorn opened up his eyes seeing the dusk but saw no Razam, and Elorhir. He bolted up off the spot he was laying on and immdetialy woke up Elladan, Kumal, Shendal, Yuku, and Stu. All stared at him as he mounted his horse and then they did as he did.
Riding off with the five behind them and Kumal rode up to him getting beside him," Legolas will be fine won't he."
Aragorn looked at her in surprise," He will be fine although now that I think about it I have a feeling. Why do you ask."
Kumal looked back at him," I was just asking because the Fellowship needs him desperately although they don't say so." Seeing his expression at what she just said she added knowing he already knew about the Fellowship," I know trust me."
" Can you see the future. No one is supposed to know about that yet except for me, Elrond, Elorhir, Elladan, Razam, and Legolas."
" Can I what." Kumal asked a little surprised.
" Can you see the future." Aragorn asked again seeing the surprise look on Kumal's face.
" Yeah I guess I can." Kumal said smiling to him.
The question popped into his mind," Well can you see what is going to happen to Legolas."
Kumal sighed," Well, um…. My future seeing only allows me to see what will happen in the Fellowship."
Aragorn put his head down," Okay then. Thanks anyway."
Seeing the disappointment written on his face of worriment for his friend," Wait. He doesn't die. I do know that for a fact because he is in the Fellowship and if he was to die then I would lose you."
Aragorn looked up with the sadness gone," Well. Does he get injured."
" I can't not tell if he is going to get injured or not." Kumal sighed in disappointment also realizing how scared she was for Elorhir, Legolas, and Razam.
Aragorn saw the fear on her face for the three," One final question for you. Does Razam or Elorhir get injured."
" I don't know." Kumal put her head down worrying for the three.
Elorhir watched his sister as she rode fast on her horse to Mirkwood singing "May It Be". Being two days Mirkwood she refused to stop. Elorhir had to make his horse go faster just keep up with his sister.
As the day wore away they could hear the clanging of swords as the elves in Mirkwood fought for their lives. Hearing the yells and screams Razam rode even harder with Elorhir keeping up. They kept riding finally coming to Mirkwood.
They rode into the realm seeing orcs almost everywhere. There were elves scattered about fighting, luckily none of them were dead. Jumping off her horse she pulled out her bow and pulled out and arrow. She fitted the arrow with great speed and released it hitting the target of an orc fighting and elf. Looking around for Legolas she finally spotted him with five elves fighting and seeing she couldn't make it over to him she stayed and fought were she was.
Elorhir however ran over to a group of children that were cornered by orcs. He pulled out his sword and attacked as one turned to see what one of the little kids gasped about. Elorhir dodged a blow to the head and turned around slicing the ocrs head off. The other orcs ran over to him and he killed all them within about twenty minutes.
Aragorn led them on with Kumal right beside him only being three days away. Deciding not to stop amongst themselves Aragorn and Kumal kept riding on forcing the others to keep going to. They could now hear the yells and screams of the people in the realm. Making more speed they finally made it to the scene of the elves fighting.
Aragorn didn't hesitate to unsheathe his sword and through one to Kumal. Kumal caught it in her right hand and she amazed Aragorn as she sliced an orcs head off.
" What. I took lessons from the movie and the books from you. Also I had fencing lessons on Earth after I first read the book and I continued to go to them until now."
He didn't get a chance to answer her remark back for fifteen orcs came and started to fight him. Kumal knew he could take them on by his self but she ran over and started to fight them as well. Five being already dead the two fought separately the ten that were left.
Kumal dodged a punch. She sighed as one tried to run her through. She jumped out of the but got hit with and arrow and ran at the orc who did it. Kumal killed five of them and she saw Aragorn's face as she ran to him when he saw the arrow still in her shoulder. He pulled it out as she stood there her not realizing it was even there.
Aragorn then saw Legolas and he ran over with Kumal running to the aid of an elf. He was helping Legolas but kept an eye on Kumal the whole time. Legolas noticed this but didn't want to mention it to his friend.
Legolas looked around," Where is Razam. Razam is always with you."
Aragorn pointed to the circle of orcs," She is fighting about a hundred orcs right now."
Legolas yelled," What." He then looked over at Elorhir," Help Razam."
Elorhir glanced at the kids," Get to shelter and stay there."
He then ran to the aid of his sister. The orcs didn't notice him until he was in the middle of the circle with Razam. He stood in front of her as the orcs attacked. Before she could realize what happened her brother was laying on the ground with orcs all around him. She knelt down beside him.
Kumal ran over from the dead orcs she just killed at the sight of Elorhir and Razam. As more orcs came she sheathed her sword and pulled out her bow and arrow. She let go of many arrows finally stopping when Aragorn and Legolas came to their rescue.
Standing in front of the two they allowed Razam to take her brother to King Thrandail while Kumal stayed with Aragorn. Legolas let his arrows fly as Aragorn and Kumal fought on either side of him with their swords out. With all the elves helping them the orcs were soon defeated and some ran away.
Letting them go they ran to infirmary to see how Elorhir was doing. When they got there King Thrandail was leaned over him with his herbs out and healing him.
Razam was standing beside her brother singing and none of them interrupted her through the whole song all finding it beautiful," May it be an evening star Shines down upon you May it be when darkness falls your heart will be true you walk a lonely road Oh! How are you are from home.
Mornie utulie{darkness has come}
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie{darkness has fallen}
A promise lives within you now
May it be shadows call Will fly away May it be your journey on To light the day When the night is overcome You may rise to find the sun
Mornie utulie{darkness has come}
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie{darkness has fallen}
A promise lives within you now
A promise lives within you now
Kumal asked in wonderment," Why were you singing that song."
Elladan answered for Razam," Our mother who's to sing it to us whenever we needed to relief our hearts from anything."
Kumal only smiled," Well I like the song it is beautiful."
King Thrandail sighed," His injuries will heal in a day. He will be fine."
They all saw the sign of relief on Razam's face and Legolas came up and hugged her tight. She only smiled at him glad for once in her life that a fight was over. She didn't however move from the side of her brother's bed at all the rest of the day or night.
The night wore on and she grew even more worried even though King Thrandail said he would be fine. She didn't know why but for some strange reason she thought it was because of Kumal who was standing in the room on the opposite side. It was defiantly strange but she didn't know why she was thinking this. Kumal was her friend know and she was beforehand. It still didn't explain why she felt this way.
In the morning Elorhir was up and ready at the inframy when he saw his sister asleep on the floor. He got up and shook her lightly. As her eyes opened she stood up and walked out of the inframy with her brother. They walked further into the realm to the home of King Thrandail.
They were right outside when they heard the voices of King Thrandail, Legolas, Aragorn, Kumal, Elladan, Shendal, Yuku, and Stu. Both looked at each other not knowing what they were talking about and didn't want to interrupt so instead they eavesdropped.
Kumal sighed," I am telling you that I got a strange feeling whenever I looked at Razam in the inframy and it happened before that to."
Aragorn turned to her," This has happened before to you."
Kumal nodded," On Earth and here. I think she felt it to. I don't know what it was but it was like when we were in battle. I was worried about you but I knew you would be fine no matter what. Then I looked at Razam and all the worry came back. It was almost like someone was trying to get me to believe that something bad was going to happen and I was wrong."
" Did you talk to Razam about it ever." Legolas asked.
" No. I just thought it was my imagination, people tell me I am the best person when it comes to imagination." Kumal said not looking at Legolas.
King Thrandail then stated," Legolas you will have to confront Lord Elrond of this whenever you go. As will you Aragorn."
" We will have to leave today if we want to make it back." Stu spoke up standing by Kumal and Aragorn.
" At least stay for another night to have our farewell party for Legolas." King Thrandail sighed.
Aragorn looked at Legolas and he couldn't leave his friend," We will stay for Legolas."
Walking out Elorhir and Razam hid avoiding being seen from the mortals but not from the elves. They all watched the two mortals walk off and all decided to listen in on their little conversation.
Walking slow they finally found a spot where they could walk without being seen and still listen in. They all had smiles on their faces leaving King Thrandail to tend to three kids.
Aragorn grabbed Kumal in a hug making them both stand rooted to the spot where they were and he kissed her," I'm glad we can finally have this without being bothered."
Kumal let him kiss her again and then smile," With elves we will never be alone but I am also glad that we can be alone."
" You were brave in battle." Aragorn smiled down at her.
" Yeah I was but I was too worried about you and I got hit by and arrow." Kumal said disaponintagly.
" You did really well. I will have to teach how to block me out of your mind when fighting. We will have to have Elrond take a look at your wound." Aragorn said walking once again with her.
" I don't think your lessons will help. After all I dream and daydream about you." She paused to see him smiling and then let her limp arm fall down beside her," I'm glad you think Elrond should look at my wound because I would rather have him heal it."
" Let's go to the archery range. It is pretty cool here." Aragorn led her off.
Razam now immediately followed. She wasn't going to miss out on this archery fun, not if she could help it. Elladan, and Elorhir followed quickly leading the rest behind them.
