Elindithas' P.O.V
I awoke at dawn; the sun was shining through the badly thatched roof. I quickly pulled my cloak on and put the fire out. Making my way to Arwen's room, I noticed Eowyn standing at her window in the royal rooms. I also saw a man behind her, clad in black fur and missing his eyebrows. I shrugged at this and continued my way towards the healer's house. I knocked on the wooden door, and Gwyn answered it, allowing me to enter. I ducked as I walked through the hall and into Arwen's room. She lay on her bed, her eyes shut tight. I smirked at her; she was beautiful when she was sleeping. I trailed my hand up her cold shoulder. She stirred slightly, breathing my name.
"Elindithas." She whispered, resting her arm on my chest and hoisted herself up into a sitting position.
"Good morning beautiful." I said, kissing her cheek lightly. She smiled at my touch, wrapping her arms around my shoulders and pressing her smooth lips to mine. She hoisted herself up, so she was on my level. I looked at her clothes, they were soaked in blood and sweat, from the operation.
"I need new clothes." Arwen said, looking down at her blood-stained gown.
"I will go ask Eowyn if you can borrow some of her clothes." I replied, leaving the tent. Quickly, I made my way up the steps to the great hall. Looking for a guard, I entered, pushing the brass door open quietly. I made my way past the sleeping soldiers that were supposed to be on guard. I smiled at the two men, resting against the walls. Looking forwards, I saw King Théoden in his throne, sound asleep. His face was wrinkled and grey, his hair was white and stringy. Nimbly, I bypassed him and made my way down a corridor. I looked in every room for Eowyn, but couldn't find her. Suddenly, I heard voices from the last room at the end of the corridor. Following the sound, I came to a room with a locked door, there was a small window that was fogged up by condensation. Wiping it with my cloak sleeve, I watched what was happening inside. Eowyn stood by her window, watching the plains of Rohan. The man in black fur approached her, his grey eyes glinted in the light. Using my elvish hearing, I listened to their conversation.
"I accept that your cousin's passing is hard to take." The man spoke into her ear. "Now that your brother has deserted you." He placed his arms around her shoulders, but she shook him off.
"Leave me alone. Snake!" She spat at the man, moving away from him. I pulled an arrow from my back and used the head to fiddle with the lock.
"Oh, but you are alone." He responded, pulling a knife from his belt. He moved towards her, brandishing the blade.
"Grima? What are you doing?" Eowyn questioned, backing away from him, her back however, was met by a stone wall. Grima slashed at her, taking her dress off in one. He swiped at her blouse underneath, exposing her bare chest. "Leave me alone!" She shouted, moving away from him.
"No one will hear you. You have no family left." Grima spoke slowly. Suddenly, the lock broke off and fell to the ground, I put my arrow back into my shoulder. Eowyn fell back onto her bed, her back resting against the mattress. Grima moved in, straddling her. "There is no point in screaming for help. I told the guards to stay away." Grima taunted. Notching an arrow in my bow, I kicked at the door, knocking it clean off. Grima turned and I fired, the arrow hit the top of his coat, nailing him to the wall. Startled, Eowyn screamed and I ran to her, helping her up. Looking at Grima, I placed his dagger to his throat. "Get off me! Peasant!" He ordered.
"You do not know who I am? Do you?" I questioned, pressing the blade into his neck. Grima shook his head, fear in his eyes as I stared at him. "My name is Elindithas. Son of Queen Ohbrym of the Woodland Realm." I exclaimed.
"And your father?" Eowyn questioned. I smiled, looking towards her, taking her hands in mine.
"My father was King Theyret of Rohan." I said. Eowyn gasped, her piercing green eyes, staring directly into my soul. She stuttered slightly.
"You're… you're my great – great - great Uncle?" she questioned. I nodded, smirking at her reaction. Suddenly, she threw herself into my arms, embracing me. I rested my arms on her pale, smooth back. I heard a noise behind me, turning, I saw three guards standing there, holding their weapons to my chest.
"What's going on here?" The leader asked. Grima, who was struggling in mid-air, shouted out.
"I caught this man trying to rape Lady Eowyn. I tried to save her, but he defeated me. Please, kill him before he can do anymore psychological damage to her!" Grima pleaded, with fake desperation. Before the soldiers could register what Grima said, I had drawn Liberator and stood with it, shielding my body.
"That sword." The leader whispered. "Where did he get it?" He looked around at his two other soldiers, one wielded an axe whilst the other a scimitar.
"It was given to me." I replied, they looked around not knowing that I could hear everything they were saying. The leader thrust his sword at mine, but I blocked it, he closed the gap between us. He was close enough for him to read the inscription.
"Only the heir to the throne of Rohan can use it!" He spat at me. I pushed his blade back, gripping him round the throat with my hand.
"The heir of Rohan is using it!" I calmly replied, throwing him back into the other guards. "And you all are committing treason!" The leader threw his weapon to the side, and kneeled before me.
"Forgive us." They whispered. I shook my head, helping Eowyn. Suddenly, a guard arrived at the door.
"Sir! We have a situation!"
Legolas' P.O.V
We entered Edoras, Gandalf rode at the front on Shadowfax, his white hair, blowing in the wind. I looked around, watching the citizens of Rohan stare at us, with confusion. Frowns were plastered on their faces as the harsh, cold wind blew at us. We stopped abruptly at the foot of the stairs and de-mounted.
"You would find more cheer in a graveyard." Gimli commented, gripping his axe close. The four of us, began to walk up the stairs, but I was stopped when someone grabbed my hand. Turning to see who the assailant was, I was met by the face of Arwen.
"Arwen?" I questioned, staring at her with a look of confusion in my eyes. She hugged me tight, resting her chin on my shoulders. "Arwen. Where is Elindithas?" I questioned.
"He went to get me some clothes from Lady Eowyn. He has not been back for some time." She explained, I looked at her, both worried and relieved. Elindithas was safe. But for how long? We quickly ascended the stairs to the entrance of the Great Hall. The doors opened and a man walked out.
"I cannot let you before Théoden King so armed, Gandalf Greyhame. By decree of Grima Wormtongue" He explained. Gandalf shared a nod with the rest of us and we handed over our weapons. Gimli had trouble giving up his precious axe. Gandalf waited. "Your staff."
"Oh!" Gandalf said, looking at his white staff. "You wouldn't part a man from his walking stick would you?" The soldier sighed, rolling his eyes and moving aside. We entered the hall, Théoden sat on his throne at the end of the hall, his face pale and wrinkled. He looked up, registering Gandalf's face.
"What do you want? Gandalf Stormcrow?" He questioned, looking at the wizard. "Leave Rohan, and never return I told you!" Gandalf approached the King, brandishing his staff.
"His staff!" One of the high-ranking guards shouted. "We were told to take the wizard's staff!" The guards rushed forwards, but we were ready, I dodged a flying dagger and punched a soldier straight in his chest, winding him. Aragorn landed a kick to one's shin and knocked him clean out with his elbow. Suddenly, I felt a knee in my back and I was falling to the ground. The man stood above me, a knife in his grip.
"Say goodbye. Elfling!" He taunted, raising his arm. All of a sudden, an arrow impaled his chest, killing him instantly.
"Goodbye." I responded, smirking. I turned to see Elindithas stood there a bow in his hands, he released several more arrows, defeating the heavily-armed soldiers.
"Brother!" I exclaimed, running to him. A woman stood behind him, with little to no clothing on and several soldiers.
Elindithas' P.O.V
I released another volley of arrows onto the guards fighting Aragorn and Gimli. Suddenly, the figure with the staff turned, looking towards me. I suddenly recognised his face.
"Gandalf?" I questioned, moving towards my master. "How?"
"Elindithas." He greeted me, embracing me. I smiled as I looked over my master. "I will explain later." I moved away from him and towards Arwen. Running my hand through her hair, I kissed her. She watched Gandalf as he approached Théoden. Eowyn tried to move towards her Uncle, but Aragorn caught her hand, whispering a quick 'wait'. "Théoden, son of Thengel, too long have you sat in the darkness." He said, holding out his hand.
"What is he doing?" Arwen whispered, as she gripped my hand.
"Harken to me. I release you from this spell!" He stated. Nothing happened, Théoden began laughing in a deep voice.
"You have no power here! Gandalf the Grey." Théoden said slowly. Gandalf threw his cloak aside, revealing his white clothes. "Ahh!" Théoden said, startled. Gandalf thrust his staff towards the King.
"I will draw you Saruman, like poison is drawn from a wound!" Gandalf announced, pressing Théoden against his throne.
"If I go… Théoden dies!" Saruman spat through Théoden's body.
"That is a risk, I'm willing to take!" Gandalf replied, thrusting his staff at the King. Théoden fell forwards onto the floor. Eowyn got out of Aragorn's grasp and ran to him, tears running down her cheeks. She raised the body of the King, sniffing slightly.
"Uncle?" She questioned, pressing her hand to his cheek. "Uncle?"
"Aragorn!" I exclaimed, and the ranger rushed down to Eowyn's side, turning Théoden over. Pressing two fingers to his neck, he looked for a pulse.
"Is he alive?" Eowyn questioned, as Aragorn knelt there. Looking back towards me and Gandalf, he shook his head. "No!" Eowyn cried, sobbing into Théoden's robes.
"It is as I feared." Gandalf stated, bowing his head. I turned to look at him, confused and worried.
"What do you mean?" I questioned.
"Saruman's mind control was too strong for Théoden. When I removed him, it destroyed his mind in one swift blow." Gandalf explained. Eowyn suddenly stood and approached me. She stood before me, her face red with tears, and knelt.
"You must command us. King Elindithas." She exclaimed. I looked to Arwen and she smiled at me.
"How do we know that he is the rightful heir to the throne?" One of the guards called out. I felt Legolas place something into my hand. I opened my palm to reveal the Ring of Theyret. I showed it to the surrounding guards.
"This ring belonged to my father, King Theyret of Rohan. Under my leadership, we can drive Saruman's armies out of our lands and restore peace to this once great country." I announced, trying to sound confident. This statement was met by cheers from the soldiers as they bowed before me. There was a noise to the left of me and I turned to see Grima. He quickly grabbed Arwen and held his dagger to her throat. Legolas and Aragorn, drew their bows and aimed at the cowardly man. "What is it you want Grima?" I questioned, looking at him.
"Give me free passage out of Rohan, or the elf dies." He bartered, moving to the door, his blade still close to Arwen's neck.
"Fine. Be gone Snake!" I called. He threw Arwen to the ground and ran to a horse, quickly saddled up, he rode out of the gates of Edoras.
"He will just slither back to Saruman." Gandalf exclaimed, walking out of the Great Hall. "War is coming Elindithas, there is nothing you can do about it."
"I know Master. What shall I do?" I asked, as we made our way to the stables.
"You're the King now. I can't make the decisions for you." Gandalf replied. "But, I will suggest going to Helms Deep, the ancient battle fortress. Make your defence of the country there and hold out for as long as possible!" He climbed up onto Shadowfax.
"Where are you going?" I questioned him.
"Look for my coming on the first light on the fifth day. At dawn, look to the east." He explained, pulling on the reins of the horse.
"Goodbye." I replied, as he galloped out of the stables and onto the plains of Rohan. I watched him go, but something caught my eye on the brow of the hill. A brown horse carrying a girl and a boy trotted slowly towards Edoras. All of a sudden, the boy fell off, crashing to the ground. I turned to the guard that let us into the hall. "You there!" I said.
"Yes, my lord?" He asked.
"What is your name?" I questioned, looking at him. He had a scar that ran down most of his cheek.
"Hama my lord." He replied; following my gaze, he realised that I was looking at his scar. "I got that in a warg attack last month. If Gamling had not saved me, I would have probably perished." I nodded, agreeing with him.
"Send some men out to collect the riders of that horse." I ordered, pointing to the plains. He nodded.
"Certainly my lord." He repeated, turning to his men. "Send three riders out to retrieve those children." He started to walk back towards the hall.
"Hama!" I called after him. He turned to look at me. "Please call me Elindithas." I told him, smiling at the Captain.
"Of course my… Elindithas." He corrected himself. I looked back towards the sun, setting behind the brow of hill. Several horses left the gates of Edoras and began to ride towards the two children. Stopping and getting off, they picked up the girl and boy and placed them on the back of two jet black horses. Suddenly, I heard two pairs footsteps behind me, I already knew they were. Turning, I was met by the faces of Legolas and Arwen.
"So… now I'm King." I began. "What titles do you two hold?" They both smiled, hugging me, I wrapped my arms around them, laughing.
"I do believe, that I am Queen Consort of Rohan." Arwen exclaimed, snuggling into my chest, I played with her long chestnut hair as she cuddled into me.
"I have no idea, what I am." Legolas said with a smile. "Am I a prince?"
"Prince Legolas of Mirkwood and Rohan." I said. "I like it." Legolas laughed, suddenly, I heard Hama call to me.
"Elindithas, where shall we send the children?" He questioned.
"Take them to Lord Aragorn. He will check them over for injuries." I answered, walking back towards the hall. Entering, I saw Eowyn sitting next to Aragorn, who was looking over the children. "How are they?" I asked. He looked up.
"Nothing too major. They are mainly suffering from a loss of sleep." Aragorn explained, as the girl looked to Eowyn.
"Where is mama?" She questioned.
"What happened?" Eowyn asked softly. She placed her palm on the girl.
"The wild-men attacked us." The boy answered.
"What are your names?" I questioned. They looked towards me.
"My name is Eothan. My sister is called Freda." Eothan answered. I turned to Gamling.
"Find them a room. We leave for Helms Deep at dawn." I ordered.
"Yes my lord." Gamling replied, showing the children out. I looked towards my brother.
"Get some rest. You too Aragorn. War is brewing and we need you in your best condition." I exclaimed. They both nodded, leaving the hall. Eowyn exited, her eyes red with tears. "Should I talk to her?" I asked Arwen.
"In the morning. She should get some sleep." Arwen replied, kissing me softly.
"So, shall I show you the Royal Bedroom?" I questioned, staring deeply into her eyes.
"You read my mind." She replied, as I took her arm and left the hall.
Third Person
They quickly ascended the short flight of stairs to the Royal Bedroom. Elindithas opened the door and allowed Arwen to enter. Locking the door, he turned to her, kissing her neck softly. She moaned slightly as his lips trailed over her throat and onto her lips. He felt his cloak being un-tied slowly and it fell to the floor. Elindithas slipped his hands behind her and fiddled with the knot on her dress, it slowly it trailed down her body, leaving her in her undergarments. Kissing her once more, he trailed his fingers to the bow on the back of her undergarments. Untying it, it fell to the ground, revealing her breasts. Elindithas caressed them slowly and she let out a moan.
"I need you." She whispered, throwing her head back. She grabbed him and pushed him onto the bed. Quickly, her talented hands went to work, pulling at the strings of his riding trousers. They were soon off and Arwen was standing over the naked Elindithas. She pulled her final article of clothing off and revealed her womanhood to him. Sinking onto him, she felt a wave of pleasure flow through her body. He groaned as she began to move slowly on top of him. Elindithas reached his hands to her breasts, fondling them gently. This unlocked a new form of pleasure for Arwen as she began to moan even louder on top of Elindithas. She suddenly felt herself on the edge of hormonal bliss and was beginning to almost shake herself on top of Elindithas. She soon fell into a haze as she came onto Elindithas.
"I'm going too…" Elindithas trailed off, asking Arwen's permission to fill her with his seed.
"Inside of me!" She half-screamed with pleasure and Elindithas released with one last thrust. Arwen fell forward onto his chest, snuggling into him. "I love you." She whispered, panting.
"I love you too." Elindithas replied. "Queen Arwen."
