CHAPTER 6
Hope woke from a stinging sensation from her wrist. Her wrist didn't look any better then it had the night before. Arwen was still sleeping. Hope got up and went to the bathroom to look for some bandages for her wrist. She found nothing. She needs to bandage up her wrist. She tore her skirt and wrapped the piece of cloth around her wrist. Arwen walked into the bathroom.
"How is your wrist?" Arwen asked.
"Not better and not worse." Hope said.
"Well I am sure it won't be long until he comes and gets us for breakfast." Arwen said. Right when she finished her sentence there was a knock on the door. "Come in." Arwen said. Saruman walked in.
"How was your sleep?" He asked.
"Good." Hope said walking out of the bathroom. Saruman look at her wrist and back at her.
"He likes you." He said.
"No really?" Hope said.
"Well, let's go to breakfast." Saruman said leaving the room. I girls quietly followed. When the reached the dinning room, the girls were shocked. Out of the 50 girls they thought were going to be there, there were only 15 sitting at the long table.
"Please let they others be late." Hope said under her breath. Saruman stood.
"I would like to congratulate you 15 girls that have passed the test. By the end of today the 9 will be decided." Saruman explained. "Since you passed the test, you will receive breakfast. Do not worry it is not poisoned." Orcs brought in the food. It was eggs and bacon, and something strange looking. Their cups were filled with water. Hope, willing to trust Sarumans word, tasted the food. It was delicious. She quickly finished her plate and sat back in her chair.
"I wonder what the test for today is?" she thought to herself. Once everyone was finished Saruman stood again.
"Go back to your rooms. The orcs will come and get you when the test is ready." He said. The girls rushed from the room.
"What do you think the test is?" Hope asked Arwen.
"I don't know." Arwen answered. Worry caressing her face. "I think we should rest before the test, just in case it involves strength and energy." They went back to Arwens room.
"I will be resting in my room." Hope told Arwen.
"Are you sure you want to?" Arwen asked.
"I'll be fine." Hope answered. Hope went back to her room, dropping on the bed tiredly. Her eyelids slowly closed and she fell into a deep sleep.
