The Beginning of the adventure- Chapter 3
"Esmerelda? Where are you?" cried Evelyn. They'd been walking since dusk and the sun was starting to rise.
"Esmerelda? Can you hear me? Where are you?" she called out, getting very worried. In the shadows, she heard a crunching sound.
"Who's there? Is that you Esmerelda?" she began to spin around, trying to locate where the sound was coming from. Suddenly, without warning, a huge horse carrying a hooded figure came out from behind her.
"Give me the ring half-ling." the hooded figure hissed at her, "NOW!"
Evelyn looked up at the figure, frightened, and screamed when she saw what was under its hood. It wasn't what she saw under it, it was what she didn't see. It had no face! She turned and ran into the forest.
"ESMERELDA! Help!" she screamed. She could hear the galloping horse getting closer and closer.
"Help! Anyone!" But no one seemed to be around. She stopped yelling and continued to run, harder and harder trying to escape from the thing that was chasing her. She didn't know who or what it was. All she knew was that it wanted the ring and was willing to kill her to get it. She stopped and turned to where it was.
"You'll never get it! I'd die before I'd allow such a foul creature as you to get their hands on it!" she yelled bravely, yet still frightened. The creature screeched and she started to run again. But it didn't follow her. She turned around again and said to herself, "Wow, I can't believe it left. I must've scared it away, (pausing, she hears the sound of hoofs drawing near her).I spoke too soon," she said frowning. She was just about to run when she heard a voice,
"Evelyn, hurry and get onto the horse!" It was Legolas, and Esmerelda was on the horse with him.
"But where is the.what was that.how did you." She mumbled as Legolas helped her onto the horse.
"I'll explain later, WE MUST LEAVE THIS FOREST, NOW!" he patted the horses' side to indicate that he wanted it to run. He also whispered some things in Elvish, but Evelyn couldn't make out what he said. When he finished, the horse began to gallop at high speed, dodging trees and bushes.
"Where are you taking us?"
"To Rivendell, where the ring will be safe." He replied
"Why did that, thing, stop chasing me? What did you do? Did you kill it?" she asked
"It was forced to stop, I shot an arrow at it. And I wish I could've killed it, but those don't die.or live for that matter."
"Huh? But how can something not be alive, or dead? I don't understand what you're saying."
"It was a ringwreith, they were once kings of men, but they were power hungry and let the ring take them over. Now they follow the ring, drawn to its power, and are a slave to its will. They will never stop hunting you, the ring is their only need, without it, they would have no reason to live, or not." "Oh, that makes me feel much better," she said sarcastically.
Legolas whispered to the horse [to stop] about four hours later. And said, "Esmerelda, Evelyn, we will rest here. Be alert, there are nine wreiths and we don't know where they are." He said and disappeared from their view.
"Where'd he go?" Esmerelda asked, looking around.
"He went up into the trees, that's where he lives." She replied, pointing upward at Legolas.
"Oh, cool." She said as he yawned and lay down.
"Good night Esmerelda, Legolas.I hope." That was her last word before she drifted off to sleep.
She woke up about an hour later, but she didn't know why. She sat up and looked around. Esmerelda and Legolas were gone, along with the horse. "Oh no! They left me!" She stood up and looked around. In front of her was a huge, sort of fire eye. It was coming closer and closer. It started to speak, but she couldn't understand what it was saying. Around the eye were all nine of the wreiths with their blades ready to attack.
She woke up, it was just a dream, it wasn't real. But when she looked for Legolas and Sam, they weren't there.
The eye was fixed on her, drawing nearer and nearer. The heat from the eye was beginning to singe her hair. "Who are you?" she asked, and it said "HAND OVER THE RING! AND YOU'LL DIE A PAINLESS DEATH! IF YOU RESIST YOU WILL SUFFER!" Suddenly a burst of flames came out of the center of the eye and engulfed her. She felt a horrible pain in her left shoulder. It hurt so bad she became nauseated and she screamed. She could feel her body being melted by the heat of the fire.
"AHHHHHHH!" she screamed, clutching her shoulder. This is it, it's the end, she thought. And everything went black.
The Beginning of the adventure- Chapter 4 "NO! Not Evelyn!" screamed Esmerelda. Lord Sarumon had captured her & Legolas and they were told what happened to her.
"The wreiths have her now, and no one can help her. The ring is now in the hands of its rightful owner." Sarumon said maliciously.
"You lie! I know where she is!" yelled Legolas, struggling and trying to get out of the grip of a huge orc.
"If I were a liar, than would you be able to see this?" he said as he pointed at a crystal ball. Legolas and Sam were shoved over to it.
"LOOK INTO IT, AND SEE HOW YOUR LITTLE FRIEND DIED!" he screamed, laughing through his sharp, wicked teeth.
Legolas and Esmerelda gazed into the crystal ball. At first there was only flames, but soon enough they saw Evelyn. She sat up and looked around for them, not noticing Esmerelda's knapsack next to her and screamed their names. It was at that time when the eye and the wreiths showed up. Esmerelda looked away; he did not want to see it. The flames went all around her and they could hear her screaming. She fell to the ground, clutching a gash in her shoulder, and passed out.
"That's enough! You just made that whole thing up! Evelyn wouldn't let them do that to her! YOU ARE A LIAR!" Esmerelda screamed and threw himself onto Sarumon. Legolas tried to stop Esmerelda, but it was too late. Sarumon pointed his staff at her and she was thrown against the wall. Now that Esmerelda was unconscious, Legolas was furious. He had a plan; he would get out of there and find Evelyn.
"Sarumon, I know the truth. I am an elf, you cannot fool me." He whispered and once again disappeared from view.
"Silly elf. Does actually think he can fool me?" he pointed his staff around the room, but nothing happened. He looked over to his orc and goblins and asked, "WHERE IS HE!" yelled Sarumon, looking in all directions. "FIND HIM, NOW!"
The orc and goblins left the room and began the search for Legolas. Esmerelda was still unconscious, with a rather large gash on her head. Finally Sarumon left the room to find his orc. How could a little elf trick a powerful wizard such as myself? He asked himself and left the tower. Legolas then jumped down. He was up on a beam on the ceiling. And he used an Elven incantation to hide himself while he went up. "Esmerelda, get up, we must hurry." He said while shaking her. But she did not regain consciousness, so Legolas carried her on his back and snuck out of the tower.
"Esmerelda? Where are you?" cried Evelyn. They'd been walking since dusk and the sun was starting to rise.
"Esmerelda? Can you hear me? Where are you?" she called out, getting very worried. In the shadows, she heard a crunching sound.
