Chapter Title: Capture III

Original Chapter Title: Elle goes to Frodo for help (gets captured)







"Frodo, you don't understand! They're coming for you! You need to leave here now!" Elanor yelled.

"What about you?" the ring bearer replied.

" Don't worry about me I'll be fine. Here, give me some of your clothing."

"What?"

"Just give it to me." Elanor said holding out her hand. Frodo dug through his sack and took out a pair of hobbit-sized pants and a long sleeved shirt.

"Here, it's not much but..."

"It's fine. Turn around."

"Excuse me?"

"I have to change, turn around."

"I don't know what this is about." Frodo sighed. In mere minutes Elle was in Frodo's clothing and the rest of hers was in his bag.

"There, done. Goodbye my love." Elanor said pecking him on the cheek.

"But Elanor! Why are you doing this?"

"How else am I going to get into Isengard and save you at the same time?" She winked.

"You mustn't do this!" He exclaimed. "He'll torture you." at that comment Elanor looked at the ground and cold fear filled her eyes.

"Listen, what ever he does to me, I'll always love you. Now run! You have a world to save from death and destruction!" She said one more time before flying out the door.

"And I will always love you!" He called out after her. Frodo felt awful. This wasn't the first time his girlfriend had to save him. He dug through his bag and pulled out the frilly blouse she had left behind.

"Great. He muttered and he went to go collect Sam and Gollum. He had a feeling that their sleeping periods were going to get shorter.

She ran with all of her might towards the approaching orcs. 'If I'm lucky, I'll get a ride.' she thought before screaming at them. "Ahh! Orcs! They've come to capture me and the ring of power! I must run!"

A couple of them turned their heads towards her and grinned. She acted as though she was frozen with fear as an orc jogged towards her and scooped her up.

"I have the halfling!" it bellowed and the minature army turned towards Isengard and away from Frodo and Sam. 'At least I did one thing right.' Elle thought.

Elanor sighed. She hated being captured. It was so tedious. But at least she'd be able to save Lauri, if it wasn't too late. Elle hoped against hope that she was okay but knowing Saruman, she probably wasn't. That's not the time to think about this. Isengard came into view and she know she could expect a warm welcome.

"Ahh, I see you've brought me the ring bearer." Saruman said walking towards the orc carrying Elle.

"Saruman, I see you've remodeled a bit. Good for you." Elle said as soon as he could see her face.

"What?!" He screamed. "You brought the wrong one! This one is female! The ring bearer is a male!

"That must really be a disappointment for you." Elle laughed.

"Put her down!" Saruman ordered. Elle was thrown to the ground and Saruman picked her up by the collar of her shirt.

"Where is he?" He snarled.

"Where is she?" Elanor snarled back.

"So be it." Saruman yelled whisking her inside and taking her down stairs as far as they could go. She could see a very large stone cell with one practically invisible door and three orcs guarding it.

"Let me help you and your friend try and remember where the ring bearer is." He spat. The door opened and Elle was thrown in.







A.N.: ELLE: *singing to self to the tune of jingle bells* Oh what fun it is to ride on a one orc as a slave! Hey! Isengard, Isengard, I'm goin' there hurray! Oh what fun it is to ride on a one orc as a slave! Hey!

LAURI: Heh heh, stupid orcs. "Ahh! Orcs! They've come to capture me an the ring of power! I must run!" heh heh. Good one Elle! But, unfortunately you've been thrown in the terribly scary room with me now... GET ME OUT OF HERE! R/R please
