How Can I Survive
Chapter 14
"Estel" Elladan felt the colour drain from his already pale face as he repeated his foster brother's name. Arwen couldn't even speak.
Glorfindel had no choice but to break the shocking silence. "Elladan, your brother…Elrohir is waiting for you. A search is being set up. If orcs are this close we have to free the forests of them" the elf lord stated.
Coming back to reality, Elladan nodded. "Arwen…" he said before he left. "Go its okay, I'll be fine." Satisfied the twin walked out the door. He was stopped only about a metre down the hall though. The Evenstar grabbed the material of his royal blue tunic. He turned around to look her in her eyes. "Find him."
***************************
Aragorn woke up groggy and with a pounding headache. His arm hurt painfully but he couldn't remember why. He was laying on a cold cement floor of a cold cement cell lit by 2 torches.
He ran his hand through his sweat drenched hair only to cringe when his fingers came across a large bump on the back of his head. His fingers came away bloodied, which showed that whoever had him captured had taken little care to his injuries.
Finally the memories of the night before all flooded his mind. That didn't at all help his hurting head. He remembered the dream, the necklace, his decision and then the attack. He remembered it all. Along with all the memories came a question that the answer he knew not. "Why didn't they kill me?"
Hearing the story about the twins' mother, he for one knew that orcs were not merciful creatures. Why did they spare him? Did he own something they wanted? If he had it on him they certainly would've taken it because all of his possessions were gone. He was just more confused than ever.
"Finally awake are we?" a voice said from outside the bars of his cage. Aragorn didn't at all recognize the voice that spoke to him. "Who are you?" "Your worst nightmare Aragorn son Arathorn."
I know I know, its really short. Bad me bad me. I smack myself upside the head. *ouch* r and r!!
