Link: Hey you put another chapter up! Don't you have Homework?
LE: Yea, but I decided not to do homework today.
Marth: Didn't you skip school?"
LE: No I didn't. We didn't have school today.
Link: So what you're saying is you took the whole day to write this?
Roy: No she didn't. I watched her. She did this tonight. She had a friend over earlier.
LE: I think that it's time for the disclaimer.
Roy: Luinedhel Elfobbit owns none of the characters besides Celebfea.
Celebfea: now on with the chapter!
Chapter 9- the battle part 1
"Marth, you've had people watching you before. The people at the tournaments have seen you. This is no different." Link explained while running over.
"Link. I've had only family. Friends and my men watch me. All of which are either equal in some way or need more training. Besides, I feel so inexperienced around elves." Marth whispered.
Roy tried to continue to persuade him, "Yes, well, elves are more into sneak attacks. You know, bows, daggers. I thought you knew that."
"Roy. Can I talk to you? Alone?" Marth dragged Roy away from the elves.
They walked over to Marth's sword.
"Marth, Link is an elf, and yet you let him watch." Roy pointed out.
"Yea, but then again, he's a friend. These elves, the elves of Mirkwood, they seem different then Link. Like they don't fully trust us." Marth picked his sword up and held it so the moonlight glinted off of it.
"Roy, you were right. The elves aren't the only thing on my mind. The big thing is that I have to live up to my ancestor. He was a hero of Arkanea. Just like Link is the Hero of time. I have his sword; therefore I fell like I have the obligation to continue that legacy. If I'm here fighting for the elves of Mirkwood, and not home commanding what few 100 soldiers I have left, then I feel like I'm failing. I'm a prince. I can't fail. You know that. You're of really high nobility. Tell me I'm wrong." Marth sheathed his sword leaving Roy to think.
He started to walk back when Roy's voice prevented him.
"Marth wait." Roy yelled.
Roy went to catch up to Marth.
"My prince. Knight me as your own personal bodyguard. I give my service in order to help you win the war on our homeland." Roy kneeled offering his sword.
"Roy, son of Pharea, general of the Phareanian army, mostly as friend rather then a bodyguard, rise and be beside me forever more." Marth accepted.
"Dnerg-ayo la bhursi." Roy replied happily. (Thank-you my prince)
They then walked back to the stunned elves, all of them.
"May I ask what you guys think you're doing?" Link asked suspiciously.
"I agree with Link." Celebfea added in.
The elves finally came back to reality, nodded in agreement. Marth began telling the elves why they sword fighting so hard and the little exchange about Roy becoming his bodyguard, so to speak. When they were finished they went to bed for the other half of the night. Celebfea took watch, just as he wanted to.
"What's your story?" Link asked coming up behind Celebfea.
"What?" Celebfea asked, shocked of the question.
"Why do live in the palace? How'd you get there?" Link clarified.
"Aren't we observant. I'll answer your question, in return for your answer to one of mine." Celebfea stated.
Link nodded in agreement.
"Well, Legolas is my adoptive brother. When I was still considered too young to go on hunts, yet old enough to learn to fight, my parents went out on patrol. Their company was over run by Orcs. They were out numbered, and no one lived. Legolas, my best friend, begged his father to take me in as one of his own. I have lived there ever since. Now for my question. How did you come to know Marth and become friends?" Celebfea informed Link.
"Well, he was one of the latest people to join the group, along with Roy. I had to fight him a couple of times, just to see how good he was. At the time I was one of the best fighters. Marth and Roy come in and I find out that we are equals. So we became fast friends. Since we have swords we have helped each other out many times. Even saved each others lives more then once." Link told his tale.
"You two better get some rest." Legolas suggested.
They both nodded and went to bed. The next morning the army was up and ready to go when Marth and Roy joined the land of waking. By midday they arrived at the dwarves home. On the way they also made an alliance with the people from Lake town. They made their camp at the base of the mountain. At sunset a halfling came walking out with a jewel. He met with the mayor from lake Town and Thranduil. Marth and Roy were too far away to listen in and hear what was happening. Link was talking with elves feeling a little at home. A man in gray robes walked up behind Marth and Roy with very little sound.
"May I ask who you two are?" the man asked.
"I'm Marth and this is Roy. Who might you be kind sir?" Marth introduced. He gave Roy a look that told him that information was all the man needed to know. Roy nodded in understanding.
"Well, from the looks of you two I'd say you have had battle experience. I'm guessing Generals to be more precise." Turning to Marth he added, "So what country do you reign over?"
"I don't reign over any country." Marth stated.
"Ryd eralyhi erafea." Roy whispered. (Not any more)
Earning him an elbow from Marth. Roy let out a small yelp in surprise.
Marth then turning back to the man asked, "So what is your na…?"
The man had left. Link noticing the conversation with the wizard walked over.
"Fny fem dned?" Link asked. (Who was that?)
"Ni tutr'd dicc om." Roy answered. (He didn't tell us.)
Link then lead them over to supper. When they reached the fire they could see a little ways around them. Roy was surveying the land in awe. Marth noticed and nudged Roy
"We are going to attack at dawn." An elf informed the three outlanders.
Marth nodded in reply. They at their supper in silence. After supper they saw Legolas coming over to them, with Celebfea right behind.
Two words left Legolas' mouth upon arriving, "Plans changed."

Like the language? Take it out? Please review. It would make my day.
Celebfea: Hey what about that site that you go to?
LE: what the samurai site??
Link: I saw you on that. Give them the link.
LE: Give them you? That would mean I would have to take you out of the story.*laughs*
Link: not me. Your trap link.
Marth: I agree with Link. It would help.
LE: yea, but would that be breaking the rules here?
Roy: Since when do you follow the rules?
LE: I follow the rules at school and on the RPG and internet sites like these.
Marth: I think the vote is three to one.
LE: I'm blaming it on you guys if I get in trouble
Celebfea: on me too?
LE: were you helping?
Celebfea: No
LE: then no. not you.
If you want to know about the site e-mail me and I'll send you a link. Enough of that. I may ban myself from updating for awhile mainly because I need to get my grades back up to my normal grade for the classes. I will update ASAP or whenever I get a chance. It will be very S-L-O-W going. Thanks to the reviews!
