Chapter Number: 32
Chapter Title: The Terrors of Isengard
Original Chapter Title: Elle is brought to Saruman where Lauri is
Lauri was sitting, in tears on the ground when the door opened. She had to look away slightly because of the bright light, however she was thankful that it was there. She heard a thud and a moan, as the door was slammed shut again.
"Who...who's there?" Lauri whimpered.
"Lauri? Lauri! It's me Elle." the hobbit said sitting up.
"Elle?" Lauri gasped as the hobbit scrambled over to where she heard her friend.
"How long have they had you locked in here?!" she asked placing her hand on the elf's shoulder. She was shaking constantly and Elle knew she was terrified.
"Since...since...I got here..." Lauri said, trying to contain her tears.
"It will be alright."
"I doubt it. Are you all right? Did they hurt you? As you can tell, I can't see you..." Lauri said on the brink of tears again.
"I'm fine. We're both fine, for now. Just close your eyes. Don't think about the dark. Besides, we might get the wall if we're lucky."
"Yeah, lucky." Lauri said closing her eyes. "How did you know I was here?"
"I heard you. You spoke to me, through telepathy." Elanor said
"I didn't know I could do that...Maybe Legolas heard me too!" Lauri said with hope.
"Maybe. Lets hope so, because I don't know how else we're going to get out of this mess."
"But even is he did hear me, how would he know where to find me. He's probably not anywhere near here either. They would never make it in time..."
"You never know. Determination is a strange thing." Elanor said trying to cheer her friend up a bit.
"I suppose you're right. Where is Frodo?"
"I left him with Sam and Gollum again. They're safe, I think."
"I hope so. If they get him too, there will be no hope left for middle earth. There will be no hope left for anyone..." Lauri said sadly.
"Don't say things like that. Didn't you once tell me not to think of the horrible things." Elanor said taking Lauri's hand, causing her friend to wince slightly.
"What's wrong?" Elanor asked, releasing her friend's hand.
"Nothing...it's just my wrist, I think it may be broken. It doesn't hurt, only when I use it, or when something touches it." Lauri said.
"How did it get broken?" Elanor asked.
"The big orc from the group of orcs that kidnapped us the first time. I tried to stab him with an arrow, and he broke my wrist."
Elanor cringed at the thought, and all though Lauri could not see her, she sensed it.
"It's not that bad Elle, really" the elf re assured. "Not nearly as bad as this room at least."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The two friends were sitting quietly when the door opened, letting in blinding light. Before they could adjust, they were grabbed by some of the rather large orcs from before. They fought and kicked and actually managed to get away briefly, but were grabbed again, this time, more roughly than before. The orcs grabbed them so tightly they felt that they couldn't breathe. They were taken to yet another large open room in the tower of Isengard.
"Have you had enough yet? Are you ready to tell me where the one who carries the ring is hiding?" Saruman asked.
"We aren't going to tell you." Lauri said through gritted teeth.
"Why do you keep asking?" Elle added.
"I think maybe I can convince you otherwise." Saruman smiled and with a simple movement of his staff, he had them out of the orcs grasp and on the floor.
"Your friend Gandalf enjoyed this, so I figure you will too." He smirked and they flew over and hit the wall hard, then hit the floor again, just as hard as before.
"Will you tell me now?" he asked turning first to Lauri, who was trying to push herself up, but failing.
"Amin feuya ten'lle." Lauri coughed, seeing blood on the floor before her, before she was thrown against the opposite wall and into the floor again.
"What about you, halfling?" he turned to Elanor.
"Antolle uluma sulrim" she growled and was thrown the same way as Lauri had been.
"So, neither of you will tell me then? Fine, you will suffer." He said and they were both lifted high in the air, and then slammed into the floor. This time, they were both knocked unconscious.
"Have them chained on the wall. I'll deal with them later" Saruman ordered the large orcs. And so the orcs set to work, chaining the bleeding elf and hobbit to the wall by their wrists.
ELVISH: Amin feuya ten'lle: You Disgust me
Antolle uluma sulrim: Much wind pours from your mouth.
A.N.: ELLE: Stupid ugly old white dude. Please leave all questions. All will be explained in the end young skywalkers.
LAURI: I'm so sorry about not updated. If you want the honest truth, it's because we only have three or four more chapters to go till we have no more written, and I want to give us some time to write some more. Or at least to finish Book 2 (which ends with Chapter 40) Then we can maybe do some massive work and start Book 3! Well, anyways, I have some super good news! I'm got accepted and will be going to DODDS Creative Connections (Classes on the Arts, Mine's called "Way Off Broadway") for the last week of Feb. (23-28). I'm so looking forward to it! But that means I won't have internet for a week! I'll Die I tell you! DIE! O_O Well, Elle and I have Exams all this coming week at school, so if posting is still slow, you now have several reasons as to why. :D Please R/R and I'm begging you to tell your friends to read this fic! Heehee
