"Aww, how sweet they look together," Belnach said nastily to his band of orcs. They were hidden behind various trees, waiting for the right moment. "Isildur's heir will die, and the world of men will fail," the orc sneered. He watched the couple embracing each other and Arwen took Aragorn's hand and they walked towards where the orcs were hiding.

Belnach nodded to an orc and he fired his arrow. The first one missed and Aragorn drew his sword while Arwen drew her bow and arrow. "Who's out there?!" she called. Belnach gave a signal to another orc and he shot his arrow. This time, it did not miss. It was ready to strike Aragorn's heart, but Arwen saw the arrow and jumped in front of him, the arrow hitting her on the right side of her chest. She flew backwards at the force and fell on her back, crying out in pain. "Arwen!!" Aragorn cried.

About ten orcs came from behind the trees and he fought each one, his body filled with rage. He unmercifully slaughtered each one. Belnach lay on the ground, cackling cruelly. "The arrow was poisoned," he chuckled. "She'll never make it." Aragorn threw his hunting blade at him, cutting through his throat. He quickly ran over to Arwen, her face full of pain and fear. Sweat formed on her brow and her breathing became hard. Aragorn crouched down next to her, his eyes filling with tears. "Don't worry Arwen, you'll be okay," he whispered, smoothing back her hair. Her body started to tremble. "Aragorn," she whimpered. "I'm so cold." He bit his lip to keep from crying. "This is going to hurt a little bit," he said as he removed the arrow. She cried in pain and the sound of it cut into him like a thousand arrows. Black poison dripped from the tip of the arrow. He threw it across the forest. He looked around the forest and saw an Athelas plant. He quickly grabbed it and broke off the leaves, chewing them. "Stay with me Aragorn. Please," Arwen begged. Aragorn removed the plant from his mouth and gently placed it on Arwen's wound. "Don't worry Arwen," he said. "I'm not going anywhere."

She took his hand and kissed it. He was surprised at how cold her hand had gotten. "I think I am going to die," she said. Aragorn gasped in shock. "Arwen, do not talk of such things! You're going to make it, don't worry." Tears rolled down her pale face. "You have to go on Aragorn. You.have.to." She started to cough and a small stream of blood dripped down from her mouth. Aragorn could not hold in the tears any longer. They fell down the sides of his face, his bottom lip trembling. "No Arwen. You are my one and only. I can't live without you." Her grip on Aragorn's hand tightened. "Please Aragorn." she begged. He tried to force a smile. "You will be fine, don't worry. The athelas is already starting to work." She smiled. "I love you so much Aragorn." He sobbed. "I love you too Arwen. More than you will ever know." He bent down and kissed her cold lips. He felt her body relax and he stopped and looked at her face. Her eyes stared blankly at nothing and her face was a ghastly white.
