to music and typing.

Chapter Eleven: Only Skin Deep
I shakily stood, blankly staring into the eyes of the ferocious beast. We all stepped back until we were against the hall wall.
"Legolas." Bariela whimpered.
"Do not move." Lemron advised.
The beast began to snarl angrily. The sounds coming from its mouth rang in my head. I knew it was there for me.
"Leave." I said to them.
"What? No!" Bariela protested.
"LEAVE!" I shouted.
But they did not move. I took a step forward but Lemron pulled me back. I pushed his hand from me and I glared at him. I gave a slight nod before moving again. I stepped closer and closer to the sneering beast. A warg fierce and dangerous as they are. They are very large in size, and contained gnarled teeth inside and brown long bristly hair. Its large golden orbs glimmered at me. I slowly circled he warg and it followed me.
"Go," I mouthed to them.
Legolas and Lemron turned to each other. The warg snarled again and they began to back away. Bariela stepped back with them and turned. Then they began to run. I brought my eyes back to the warg. It stepped back and forth side-to-side. It gritted its teeth and began to peddle its paw against the stone ground. It was getting ready to rush at me. But before I could scream for help it lunged at me.
I flew to the ground as its body smacked into mine. I landed harshly against the solid rocky floor. I pushed forcefully up on its neck trying to keep it from me. The drool from its mangled mouth began to slip down onto my neck and dress. The warg pushed closer to me no matter the force I had in my hands and arms.
Darkness crept over me as I felt its cold teeth gripping into my neck. The blood that mixed into the sounds of its teeth ripping into me was too much for my ears. I slowly closed my eyes and began to drift from consciousness when I heard a high-pitched growl from the warg. I felt its heavy body collapse on my frail and immovable body. I kept my eyes sealed; I wasn't willing to see what had happened.
I felt the wargs weight slowly being tilted off of me, until I could feel it no longer. I could hear faint voices conversing with each other. I then felt arms around my legs and back lifting me from the ground. I fell into a deep sleep before I could unclench my eyes, to see who had me in their arms.
~*~
I opened my eyes and they slowly faded into a small pale room. I felt the sheets on top of my body. I was about to sit up quickly when I felt pain in my neck. I worriedly began to move to the side of the bed. My neck was barely moveable. As I began to place my feet on the ground I saw someone rush into the room. The person forced me back to the bed and I did not rebuff this pushing of me.
"Please relax Galadwen." A deep recognizable voice whispered.
I focused my eyes to view Lemron. I slightly smiled as he placed the blankets over me. He brought his eyes to me, and gave a grin.
"What?" He questioned.
"It was you wasn't it?" I asked him.
He shrugged.
"I do not know of what you speak." He replied.
"You would deny the fact that you saved me?" I asked.
I sheepishly looked at him, although the pain was shooting into my neck. I only ignored it and stared into his crystal blue eyes. I knew I loved him. And I knew my face looked incredibly awkward to him, because he began to give me the most peculiar stare.
"What?" He asked again, but this time with a laugh.
"You know I love you." I said to him.
He smiled and brought his lips to my forehead.
"Amin mela lle." He whispered.
He lovingly stared at me and I gazed deeply at his face. No matter if he was the most handsome of all elves, I loved him for him. His wonderful and always joyful personality.
"Why do you stay with me?" I questioned him.
He shockingly stared at me. I knew he was shaken at me asking this, but I had to know.
"I stay with you, because I am in love with you!" He replied.
"But why?" I questioned.
He stared at me and he brought his hand to my face. He lightly brushed a lone hair from my face and grinned at me.
"That is not even a question. I love you, more than anything in this world. I love you eyes, because I can see into your soul to see you are pure. I loves your face because you are more beautiful than an autumn day when the wind speaks to me. I love your hair, because it shines with the light from your heart," He paused for a moment, but his eyes did not leave mine. "And above all else, I love your personality, It is that, that makes my day shine with the light from you. You have never been behind me, always in front. And I love how you are your own person, and are not controlled by anything but yourself."
I smiled, I felt a tear lightly leaving my eyes. He bent down and he began to bring his lips to mine. But before our lips had even touched there was a light knock on the door. He puffed and turned his head from me.
"Come in!" He nearly shouted.
I brought my hand to his and gave a smile to Bariela as she walked into the room. She grinned and rushed over to me. She gripped my weakened body. She pushed me away and turned to Lemron.
"Bless your soul." She cried.
She jumped onto Lemron squeezing the life from him. His face was towards me and had the oddest expression.
"If I was not so trustful, this would look bad." Legolas voice said.
I brought my eyes to the door where Legolas was standing. I smiled again (The smiling was getting tiresome, might I add). He slowly walked over to me. He brought his hand to mine and took it. He brought it to his lips and kindly brushed his lips upon them.
"Are you feeling well enough for visitors?" Legolas asked.
"Aye, I am." I said and gave a nod to him.
He nodded back and then someone else ran into the room. It was as far as I could tell a shaken Arwen.
"Are you well? What happened?" She cried.
I saw tears flowing from her beautiful coffee colored eyes. I slowly brought my hand, which Legolas had kissed, to Arwens face and wiped her tears from her reddened checks. She slightly gave a beam from her pink lips.
"I am all right." I replied.
"But you were attacked!" She almost shouted.
"Aye, I had been attacked, but I fear, it is only skin deep. The worse is yet to come. And it I feel what I am I know the worst is not even close." I said to them.
I felt a sharp pain in my neck, but I did not cry out in pain. After a few moments of antagonizing pain I felt it leave my body. I brought my eyes to Lemron shakily. I did not know what had just happened.
"Galadwen?" he questioned.
I moved my neck to him and stared at him. But his jaw only dropped. I brought my gaze to everyone, and they all had the exact same expression. It was then I realized I was moving my neck around.
I slowly brought my hand to the wrap around my neck. I brought my fingers around it and began to tear it off. Lemron lunged at me but I pushed him back. I ripped the wrap almost in two. It was almost completely off. I brought my hand around my neck and pulled it off. There was no resistance where the dried blood would have been.
Everyone's faces only worsened with fear. I stared at them shockingly.
"WHAT?" I shouted in question.
They only glared worriedly at me. I shoved the covers from my legs and I slid off of the bed. I placed my feet on the ground and walked over to the vanity that was a few feet from the bed. I glared at my reflection and felt almost faint at the vision I saw before me.
A/N: Sorry it is short again, but was it good??? I hope it was. yeah so this is weird huh, and I hope you all are like EVIL! Cause I did a cliffy again! I am slightly mad aren't I?? But I know someone with worse cliffys!
