I arrived almost two days later. Not stopping at all. I saw 6 guards at the entrance. I got of my horse and walked towards them.
"Who are you and what are you here for?" One of them asked.
"I am here as representative of Rivendale, and I carry urgent news for the King." I said.
"I have not seen a human in a long time and never alone. How do we know you are not here to invade us?" he asked.
"I must see the King! Time is wasting! Elrond needs re-enforcements!" I yelled.
"We will not let you pass." He said.
I growled and got on my horse. I would not let that stop me.
"We will not let you pass!" They repeated. I ran jumped over them and rode towards the door.
"I can make it' I whispered to myself. I saw the men on the ground. I smirked. Just as I was about to make it I felt something fly past my face and I felt a sting.
An arrow. I thought. I felt on go into my side. I did not stop however.
"invader!" they yelled.
Just then more guards appeared. I could fight my way through. I thought. But I cannot waste more time. I got off my horse and ran but an elf reached me first. He kicked me in the stomach and then in my back. I grunted but did not scream.
"Take her to the dungeon!" He ordered.
"Wait! I have news from Elrond!" I said.
"spit it out rat!" He hissed.
"The Orc's are getting stronger and are closer than before!" I said frantically.
"What is this?" I heard voice say. It was an Elf with long blond hair and beautiful facial features. He was armed with a bow and arrows.
"I sai –"
"I heard you peasant. Do not speak to me."
"I must speak with the King!" I said.
"no one speaks to the king unless he wishes." He said.
Judging by his voice and clothes and royalness I assumed he was Legolas.
"My Prince I must speak with the King! It is Urgent!" I said.
"Take her away!" He said.
They dragged me down to the dungeons and threw me in like as if I were a feather. I hit the wall worse than I thought it almost knocked the breath out of me.
I fell to ground and coughed loudly trying to catch my breath.
"Great" I muttered.
"how will I be able to get to the King from here." I thought.
I saw the blond from before looking at me but I did not he could see me. I scowled and turned away.
"I'm sorry Elrond" I whispered.
I pictured him in my head running out of time and getting taken by the Orc's. It angered me at the thoughts of it. I punched the wall so hard dirt fell from the ceiling and it rumbled a little.
"What was that?" I heard the elves ask themselves.
The blond stormed to my cell.
"What are you trying to do?" He hissed.
"It's what will happen here if you do not let me out and speak to the King." I said.
"Pathetic. My father will not see you and your lies. He has made up his mind. You ca just die in here for trying to invade us." He said.
"Well… as you wish My Prince" I sneered.
"If something happens to my Lord Elrond…. You will be the one die when I hear of it. His blood will be on you and your father's hands for not saving him from those Orc's. And Your blood will be on mine. I will regret nothing."
"If only you could get out." He said walking away.
I was so infuriated. I gripped the bars and pulled them apart as hard as I could. They made a loud sound and bent a little.
"Are you going to let me see your King now?" I hissed.
"No." He said. And he left.
