Chapter Six
When Tinylia got back to the camp, she left her sword by her horse and then gathered some clothes. She pulled a light blue dress out of her bag. The dress was short sleeved and the bottom ended right above her knees. So she took the dress and a brush and crept into the forest for some privacy to change.
Legolas reached the camp just in time to see which direction Tinylia was heading. He gathered their things and repacked their horses. He fed each horse a juicy red apple, which they quickly ate.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tinylia stopped when she was just a few feet away from camp. She hung her dress over a low, nearby branch and took off her boots. She quickly took off the rest of her outer clothing and then pulled the dress over head. She put her boots back on her feet and then started to hum to herself. She pulled the brush slowly through her light brown hair, ridding it of knots.
When she was done brushing her hair, she gathered her wet clothes. She heard a noise behind her; she turned around but saw nothing. Just as she was about to head back to camp, she heard a growl. She slowly turned around and dropped her clothes when a large Warg stepped out of the brush. Her eyes grew wide. A sound tried to escape her lips but could not.
The Warg slowly stepped forward and revealed its fangs. Tinylia began to step back, her breathing got heavy. The beast began to attack and she screamed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Legolas was just finishing packing up the horses when he heard a blood-curdling scream come from the direction Tinylia had went into the forest. He grabbed his bow and arrow and ran as fast as his legs would take him to Tinylia's aid. He already had an arrow notched to his bow when Tinylia came into view.
His heart sank when he saw Tinylia's body get thrown against a tree, hard. Her head and back had hit the tree and she fell in a heap to the ground. Legolas glared angrily and turned to see a Warg running towards him.
He aimed at his target and released the arrow. The arrow embedded itself in between the eyes of the Warg. Death overtook the beast immediately.
Legolas ran to Tinylia and gently rolled her over to her back. A trail of blood trickled down her chin from her mouth. Her arms were badly scratched, and blood seeped through her dress. Her eyes remained closed as Legolas said her name.
"Tinylia?" she did not stir. Legolas picked her up in his arms and made his way through the forest to the pool had swum in just a moment ago.
When he reached the pool, he gently laid Tinylia's limp body on the ground. He ripped a piece of his tunic and wet it. He patted the cloth to her forehead and once again spoke her name.
"Tinylia?" his call was once again unanswered.
He wet the piece of clothing again and wiped the blood away from her mouth and chin. A tear rolled down his cheek as he cleaned the wounds on Tinylia's arms.
Legolas gently lifted Tinylia in his arms and made his way back to the camp. "Do not worry, Vanya. I am here." He whispered to her.
When he reached the camp, he searched for her royal blue cloak. When it was found, he draped it around her shoulders and sat her up against a tree. He quickly ran back into the forest to claim his bow and arrow and then returned to the camp. He attached his quiver with arrows and his bow to his back and then lifted Tinylia to his horse. He got up after her, and held her tight.
"Nerium, khila amin (follow me)." he said to Tinylia's horse. The horse obediently followed, close behind Legolas.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A day had passed and Tinylia was still in her slumber. Legolas stayed by her side every moment of the day. They were now at the edge of Fangorn Forest and in the land of Rohan, the Realm of the Horse Lords. They should reach Gondor in about two days, at the pace they were going.
Being on the outskirts of Fangorn brought memories back to Legolas' mind. He remembered the desperate search for Merry and Pippin with Aragorn and Gimli and the return of the great wizard, Gandalf the White.
He sat next to Tinylia as her body lay on the ground. His fingers softly stroked her cheek. Night was beginning to fall so Legolas decided to start a fire. Before he got up, he gave Tinylia a kiss on the forehead and whispered, "Quel kaima (sleep well)."
Legolas searched the ground of Fangorn Forest for fallen branches and twigs. He was careful not to disturb the trees, for they were creatures of old and he meant them no harm.
When he found enough wood to start a fire, he returned to their camp and built one. The night air was getting cold, but the fire gave off enough heat to keep Tinylia warm. Legolas moved Tinylia closer to the fire when he felt her shiver. He bunched up his cloak and placed it under her head for a pillow, and then draped her cloak over her body.
"A sleeping beauty." He said to himself as he sat down next to her.
He watched her lie peacefully on the ground. Her chest rose and fell with each breath. He once again stroked her cheek, but then ran his fingers over her lips. Her lips were soft and full. He loved her lips. He wanted to kiss her lips. Without realizing it, he began to lean closer to her. He closed his eyes when his lips brushed hers and then, kissed them.
