Song For None
~
Elrond, Thranduil and Vebor had all gathered in the formal hall to talk about what motives the men might have for capturing the young elfes.
"The only thing I can think of is for some kind of information they want." Thranduil looked more downcast than he had the day before. Elrond could understand, having a son being taken prisoner must be a horrible ordeal to go through.
"Don't worry, we'll find them." Elrond tried to assure Thranduil, although he was none to sure himself.
~
Legolas was not certain of where the men where taking them but he was certain it would only be bad.
He could see Nuquer being lead by Yeriwin in front of him and Ven off the to side led by another one of the men.
Legolas was watching for a way to escape but he couldn't see any. The men had purposefully put their prisoners in the middle of the group and they had wound ropes around the elfes that restricted and had no give. Legolas didn't have any of his weapons on him and even if he did he wouldn't be able to rid himself of the ropes.
Legolas was upset that he was so helpless.
~
The men rode on until late in the evening.
Legolas could swear that he saw Rivendell up ahead but though that it couldn't be possible, they hadn't traveled far enough.
~
Brea, the captain, stopped his men and motioned for silence.
"Up ahead is Rivendell." Legolas's heart stopped when Brea said this. " We are attacking tonight. Make ready now and I'll set you into your troops later." Brea called and the men began to ready for battle.
Legolas looked around to find Yeriwin dragging Nuquer roughly to the ground and shove her against a tree.
Legolas struggled helplessly against his bonds. His frustration was welling up inside of him again.
Legolas was dragged on his horse and set up against a tree where he could se all the men preparing.
~
Maik, Elladan, and Elrohir were sitting unaware in Elladan's room awaiting some kind of orders or information about what to do.
"I just wish there were more guards around here. It kind of scares me that most of the guards are gone." Maik confessed quietly to Elladan.
"Don't worry. Nothing will happen." Elladan tried to assure Maik putting a comforting hand on her shoulder.
~
Later that evening Brea had segregated his men into groups ready for attack. Brea was telling the battle plan.
Legolas caught Nuquer's eye and she had the look of pure fear in her eyes. Ven was crying against her tree and also struggling against her bonds.
Brea sent a few of his men in to check around Rivendell for signs of guards.
~
Maik was on the way back to her room for the evening. She couldn't stop thinking about what was happening to her friends at that moment. Just then she heard a noise in off in the distance.
Maik looked out and saw three men who looked like they were sneaking around. Maik froze in her tracks and waiting until the men left before she took off running towards Elrond's room.
Maik knocked frantically on Elrond's door and Vebor answered.
"Yes, Maik?" Vebor greeted.
"I saw men, they looked like they were sneaking around!" Maik exclaimed. Vebor's eyes got big and he called Elrond.
Elrond came out of one of his back rooms and Maik retold her story.
Elrond called for his guard to gather all the men left in Rivendell and to find the men sneaking around and to search the perimeters.
Elrond ushered Maik into his room and made her sit in one of his many comfortable chairs.
"Stay here, I don't want you leaving." Elrond stated and left Vebor to watch Maik while he went to get his two sons.
~
Brea's scouts couldn't find any of Elrond's guards and were ready to back to Brea and tell him the good news.
Elrond and Thranduil's guards went out on search of the men. Elrond had a fair amount of guards and warriors left in Rivendell and with Thranduil's men had a large enough group to fend of quite a large groups of invaders.
The men had returned to Brea and relayed their good news.
"Captain, we saw no guards." One of the men called out.
Legolas jolted with sudden fear that there might be no one to defend Rivendell.
"Good, get the men ready to attack." Brea smiled maliciously.
