RUNES

Legolas rose and pulled out his knife but Aragorn turned to Melanna.
"Milady Melanna! Please be rational. What would you have us do? I beg you to allow us to leave. You are being illogical." He breathed to her. She looked back at him and in her eyes He saw years of pain and hate. That was all he saw in her. Pain.
Melanna nodded towards the nearest male elves. 7 of them came forward.
"Relinquish your weapons and I will allow you to leave. I wish to see them, tis all. Everyone." She said. The 3 put down their weapons quietly and Aragorn even put Anduril before the feet of Melanna.
(a.n: Ooh! Eminem back on!!:)*)
Melanna sighed and montioned for the 7 elves to come forward. They did." Alright. Let them go." They picked up their weapons slowly. Gimli was slowest to even come to his. He had not yet picked up his axes and Legolas and Aragorn were already at the opening to the alley. They looked back and Melanna chose this moment to speak to the 7 males.
"All but the dwarf. Bind him now! He is our captive." She said. Legolas ran back down the alley with Aragorn following. 10 elves formed a wall at once and held them back. They were pulled at and forced to watch Gimli being tied up whille he fought roughly. The elves dragged him down the alley. They disapeared eventually. Melanna left last, the wall still holding Aragorn and Legolas back. Before she left, Melanna leaned down and picked up the axes, all but one of them. Legolas fought even harder and yelled at her. She looked back and they saw a tear on her cheek. One tear.
The elves broke the wall once Melanna had safely vanished and the elves turned to flee after her. Legolas and Aragorn just stood staring after them.
An entrancing melody floated towards Aragorn. Light elvish singing. Female.(an:Listening to Avril, Im with you) He recognized the voice. Arwen Undomiel.
Arwen came to him in his dreams and he relived the night on the bridge. "You said you'd bind yourself to me... Forsaking the immortal life ...of your people." "It was a dream, Arwen. That is all." "Arwen's time is ending, let her go." "Namarie." Aragorn woke up with a start, sweating from his dreams.
An entrancing melody floated towards Legolas. Light elvish singing. Female. He recognized it. His mother. She was singing of Tinuviel and Beren, her favorite story. Voices of his parents floated through his mind.
" You must inform the Lord Elrond." "Just go. The sooner you leave, the sooner you will return." "I love you, Legolas. I am and always will be your mother." "Namarie." Legolas woke up with a start, sweating from his dreams.
He might not know where he was, but he knew his head hurt like Hell. Actually, his whole body hurt like hell. He was extremly stiff and did not feel like moving. His eyes flicked open slowly. Ow. (an:Eminem again!:))
Gimli sat up carefully. He assessed the situation. Broken leg. Elves swarming everywhere. Distorted vision and mind. No real sense of reality. Large sense of pain. That's about all he felt. Pain. They had broken his leg so he couldn't escape. Yeah. This was definitely not good.
A pretty female elf kneeled besides him. In her hand was a mug of ale and cram. Not bad. Gimli cringed at the cram. Ugh. She looked at him. Melanna.
"Just take it, please? Will you cooperate? Keep your strength up. Well?" She inquired. Her hair was darker and had little diamonds laced into it. She was beautiful.
Gimli reamained silent. He heard Melanna sigh. She set down the tray besides him and stood to leave.
