Sorry if this is bad but it's almost 1:30 AM here, & I still have to
finish my homework. I'm doing the research under my covers tonight because
my dad said I have to go to bed at 1:30, so g2g. Here's ch 5 A/N: Two
reviews. :-) Sorry this is taking so long, I've got a report that has to be
3-5 pages long with a title page, outline, and a work cited page due Mon.,
and I'm still not done with the research. Thanks to everyone who reviewed.
Now, enough babbling, on with the story. This takes place forty-five
minutes after the last chapter.

Aragon, Gimli, the
girls. Dear's
throne room.

#Uncle, please help us. We may be able to stop the Pentirbalan once and for all, #one of the twins said. #Thurinedlothia, they have different opinions, but that doesn't make them bad, # Daeâr said.
#Uncle, they captured an elf, # the other said.
# Lossenmerilin, they had orders to bring him here, as an attempt to start peace talks between our nations, # the king replied.
#Then I'm guessing that your son and his rebels, the Pentirbalan, weren't supposed to torture him. They dragged him from the guestroom last night, # Thurinedlothia said.
#If you don't help us we will go on our own, # Lossenmerilin added.
'Merilin, I'll go get our things. Start leading them to the twelfth left cavern. I'll meet you there,' Thurinedlothia said.
Aragorn and Gimli followed Merilin through a maze of tunnels, while Lothia said, Latrop, stepped through the portal and disappeared.
"Lady Lossenmerilin, where are we going?" Aragorn asked.
"We are going to the twelfth left cavern. And call me Merilin. Everyone but my uncle and his court does," Lossenmerilin said.
"Why are we going there?" Gimli asked.
"To rescue your friend Legolas, silly," Merilin said.

twelfth left
cavern
just about everybody

"Why are you doing this to me?" Legolas asked his tormentors in a short break while the torture let up. "I see no reason for you to keep beating me up."
#We do it because it is fun, Elf. Question us no more, # one of his tormentors, whom Legolas thought was the evil sorcerer, but he couldn't tell, said.
Then, Aragorn, Gimli, and Merilin, whom Legolas still hadn't met, came into the room. A light flared and Lothia
appeared holding four bags and a bottle. Aragorn and Gimli glanced around the cavern, seeing stacked boxes and barrels, with a single lamp shed dirty looking light around the area.
#How long ago did you give him the poison? # Lothia asked.
#An hour ago precious child. Try to save him, # one of the dark creatures taunted.
But Lothia was at Legolas' side and Merilin was halfway through a circle of protection by the time the beast was at hour.
'Here, drink this,' Lothia said to Legolas,' holding the bottle to his lips. Then everyone noticed the bottle, wondering how they could have possibly missed it. It was green, made of jade, but the colors kept shifting, lighter and darker shades of green, ranging from almost white, almost black.. Legolas drank the potion, and to everyone's surprise, except Lothia, Merilin, and the evil sorcerer, Legolas' skin, which had been a deathly white, gained color.
"Come, now we must get him to a healer, for we are still amateurs when it comes to healing," Merilin said, leading the way to a hidden exit behind some boxes.
Aragorn picked up Legolas and followed the twins to a group of eight horses. They mounted, Legolas, who was still unconscious, rode in front of Aragorn (A/N: no slash intended or implied. Just putting Legolas there because I'm assuming Aragorn is the strongest.)
Gimli, Lothia, and Merilin all rode separate horses, and three of the horses were packhorses, and one just went with
them. They took off through the gloomy landscape of Gurthos.
A/N: Review if you want the story to continue. Thanks to Elfsheen for beta reading.
