They watched the orcs for about 45 minutes before three orcs came from the forest on the other side of the clearing. They had said something that was lost on the elves ears but whatever it was made the orcs rush forward in what appeared to be eagerness. The elves stayed close behind, but not to close, curious as to what had made the orcs so excited. But when they walked through the brush on the other side of the clearing they weren't expecting to see a trail of dead orcs littering the forest floor.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Captain Yuy ordered that everyone break up into groups of three and four. Each group was given a different direction to search. They were to look for any remaining orcs and see if they could find what killed them.
Heero took Trowa and Quatre with him to head further up the mountain. This being the most likely direction the remaining orcs would head in. he was right, there was a large trail of gore that covered their path and after Heero stopped to inspect some of the gore, he noticed puncture wounds that could only come from an extremely sharp blade and he found arrows that were extremely well crafted, even better then his own Elvin arrows.
A good ten minutes into their search they herd an agonized cry from slightly up the path. Heero looked at his two companions nodded his head and took off up the trail, the other two close behind eager to find out the cause of the cry. When the three of them arrived at the place where the cry had originated from, they were shocked to see about twenty some orcs attacking something . . . short. It appeared to be holding it's own rather well from there point of view. When they herd a barely held back cry of agony the realized, holding its own or not, it needed help.
Heero sent Quatre to go and gather the troops while he and Trowa stayed to help the 'thing' the orcs were attacking. Heero and Trowa started firing arrows at the orcs before pulling out their blades and engaging in close combat. A few minutes later the rest of the troops arrived to help. In a matter of minutes not one orc was left standing. Heero looked around at his troops noticing no major damage he looked to the bleeding and tired figure on the other side of the miniature battlefield. From what he could tell it was male, but the long rope of braided hair made it hard to tell, while elves and some human males have long hair he had never seen a male of either race with hair that long. He would find out when he went over to talk to the person. Just as he started over to the person, with Trowa Quatre and Wufei, the person collapsed. He paused a second then continued over hoping that whatever was wrong with the person Wufei could fix [1].
As they got about a foot from the collapsed person they were stopped by an arrow that had been fired at their feet. A young woman stepped out of the trees bow at ready she yelled at them, "stay away from him you worthless scum." Well it turned out that the person was male. As the girl came into better light they noticed her ears were pointed her hair was cropped short she was small framed and pale. And a look at her face showed a scroll that was pretty intimidating for such a small person but that could have some thing to do with the arrow pointed strait at Heero's chest.
"We mean no harm," Heero stated calmly as if it was normal to have someone pointing an arrow at your heart. [2]
The girl glared at him "I'll be the judge of that," she bit out harshly.
Just then another elf bust out from the trees with a smile on his face. He was small framed like the girl but quit a bit taller. His hair was raven black with streaks of midnight blue and reached to just above his upper thigh, and he was pale, more so than the girl, making his large violet eyes stand out on his heart shaped face. He looked at the girl, then at Heero, then at the collapsed boy, then the mess of orcs scattering the forest floor.
The boy's face fell into a scroll, he sighed and then muttered something under his breath. Then he spoke out loud, "Hilde put away the arrow. They most likely were trying to help," he spoke to the girl. She grumbled but did as she was told. He looked to Heero, "I'm correct in my assumptions?" he waited for an answer but settled for the nod he received. "It is appreciated. My name is Demgel and that over there is Hilde, don't mind her she is just protective and high tempered."
"I'm Heero and it is not something to worry about." Heero said.[3]
"Well Heero we would appreciate you and your troops company. We are greatful for the help you provided and would like to offer you stay with us for as long as you like." Demgel offered with a bit of a smile on his face.
"We accept and are thankful for your kindness." Heero replied with a slight bow of the head.
"Well then follow us." Demgel said as he walked over and picked up the boy who had earlier collapsed. Hilde walked next to him while Heero walked with Trowa Quatre and Wufei slightly behind, and the rest of the troops trailing after.
[1] Wufei is like a medic though he fights his job is healing. I just thought I'd clear that up.
[2] I bet people are always pointing arrows at his chest. That's why it doesn't bother him any more.
[3] wow Heero said more then three words somebody call the news station it's a miracle.
A/N: I may not own any thing but I do own Demgel. I just had to tell you that. Anyway ::sigh:: I once again apologize for taking so long to post this. I have started to write the next chapter so it should be out by the end of the week. If it isn't I give you permission to yell at me. Please review and let me know what you think or I might not post any more chapters at all. Im just kidding but I would love some reviews.
