Okay, sorry for the mix-up, but I put 10 in front of one, and I'm too lazy to try and fix it. The next chapter will be on Ademia, on account of I lost the book.
~~**~~ signals a flash to Legolas and the same at the end means back to Mia.

Ademia looked around, with her hand on the wall, it was dry and dusty. It was pitch black, and the stench of death was so strong, Ademia had to resist the urge to lose her food. "Where am I?" she asked quietly. She touched the pendant on her chest and a clear white light illuminated the tunnel. The first thing she looked at, was the uneven surface her hand was on. She snatched her hand back. A skeleton had been hung on the wall, her hand had been on his. She noticed how one of his fingers had been straightened to point on down the tunnel. Every few feet there was another, pointing the same direction. She looked at the ratty garb they wore. "Elves, dwarves. Great. I might as well be in my own tomb!"
She began walking down the pathway. It went steeply down. Ademia kept her eyes on the floor in front of her. She suddenly felt a hand grab her from behind. She spun, but found a clawed hand grasping her throat. "Who are you?" he asked.
Ademia gasped for breath. Black closed around her eyes, and she fell to the ground in a crumpled heap.

Legolas sat up suddenly, startling Aragorn out of his silent guard duty. A hand at his throat. Aragorn looked at him. "Legolas?" he asked softly. "Are you okay?"
"I don't know. I really don't know."
~~**~~
Ademia's eyes fluttered open. Her first thought was to her weapons. Gone. She shook her head, and moaned. She had been hit in the head.
The door to her cell opened. A grotesque shape entered. Ademia pushed herself further back to the wall. The shape took two steps forward, and lifted her up. "Stand up!"
Mia scrambled to her feet. "Who are you?" The voice asked again.
Mia kept her mouth closed. "What's your name?" he repeated.
Still she didn't say anything. A clawed hand slapped her across the face. "I'll teach you to show disrespect!"
She felt something hit her in the stomach, and once again, blackness over came her.

Legolas paced silently by the fire. Gimli noticed something was wrong. "What's wrong?"
"Mia. There's something wrong with Mia."
Worry flashed over Gimli's eyes. They cleared. "She'll be okay."
"I'm not so sure," Legolas said. "She's hurt."
~~**~~
Ademia felt the blood trickling down her face. She had been healing well. The wound had just come, nothing worrisome. The door opened again. She pushed herself to her feet. She grabbed the arm and the Uruk-hai grappled with her for a moment, then she pulled him into the cell, and she got out. Slamming the door behind her, she saw a small shape running in front of her. She laughed. Jogging after him, she caught him. He let out a cry of fear when he felt her behind him. "It's okay Sam! It's just me!"
"Ademia! Where's Master Frodo?" Sam asked franticly.
"Follow me!"
Ademia jogged down the hall, up some stairs to the top of the tower. Ademia kicked the door, twice. And it opened up. "Frodo!" Ademia cried.
