~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
My head was pounding. I wish aspirin would fall into Middle Earth soon. "Come on slowpoke!" Rhiannon yelled. She was WAY ahead of me. I hate riding horses; especially in Middle Earth.
Rhiannon slowed to a stop. I did the same. "Feeling better yet?" I asked. "I should be the one asking you that. You're the one who gulped down I don't know how much wine." She laughed. I smiled; she was right. "Hey, what exactly did I do that night?" I asked. Rhiannon smiled. I hate that evil grin. "Wait, don't tell me. I'd rather not know." I said quickly.
"Lady Megami, Lady Rhiannon, your presences are required at once!" Alarian called suddenly from the palace window. We hadn't gotten very far, but I turned my horse around nonetheless. "Sure, one second!" I called back. Then I turned to tell Rhiannon to head back, but she was gone already. "Over here, stupid! You sure don't now what you're doing huh?" She hollered at me. "Yeah." I grinned sheepishly.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"What are WE doing here?" I asked Valkeron. "Shh. You'll find out soon."
:: Gee, nice talking to you, too.::
"Silence, everyone. I wish to inform you of this terror that we have been faced with." The king clapped his hands. His face was paler than usual.
"A few nights ago, a monster attacked Mirkwood. Ten people were killed, including three of my best guards. This is not the first time this monster has attacked us. That is why we required your presence in the first place, Valkeron. We wanted you to find out about this monster."
Valkeron looked towards Legolas. He'd gotten the message.
"There are a couple of witnesses who have survived that night that wished to speak with us." The king continued. "We have found that this monster is..."
Rhiannon stood up suddenly, interrupting. "A wolf thing with glowing eyes and a fur-less body." She said. The king and Legolas looked at her. "That is correct, how....." "That was the monster that attacked me." She said simply, cutting the king off again.
By now, I had taken this all in. "Rhi, describe that monster again." I asked. She did.
"Hey Rhi, when it attacked you, it walked on its hind legs, right?" "I think so..." She said. "I thought it was only a dream." I mumbled to myself. "What was?" Someone asked. "Valkeron, that night in the forest, do you remember?" I asked. "Yeah, sure. You woke up early and started a fire. Big deal." "Why I woke up early was because of my dream. That wolf thing - I dreamt about it. Every detail Rhiannon just gave, matches my dream monster." I stated.
Everyone looked puzzled. "So you are saying, Lady Megami, that the monster that has attacked us, is the same monster that was in a dream that you had a few weeks ago?" The king asked. "Yes, your majesty. That is exactly what I'm saying." "How intriguing." He said, stroking his chin thoughtfully.
Then, out of the blue, I began to walk away. "Megami, where are you going?" Asked Legolas. I just smiled. "Who wants to come with me and kill this monster?" I asked. "You cannot be serious! This monster that we know nothing about, is too powerful!" He exclaimed.
"Listen, Legolas, I'm going to go after this monster. It haunted my dreams, tried to kill my best friend, and attacked Mirkwood. Revenge is always sweet. Plus, that was what Valkeron was doing here in the first place, right?"
Rhiannon stood up and walked towards me. "Do you know what you are doing?" She asked, serious for once. "No, but they do." I motioned towards Valkeron and Legolas.
The king stood up. "I appreciate your concern toward this land, but I'm afraid that you..." "Cannot go alone." Legolas finished the king's sentence. "Father, they have showed enough courage in their unique situation. Please allow Valkeron and I to go with them." Legolas asked.
The king began to answer, but was interrupted (for about the hundredth time that day). "I will also be accompanying them." Said a deep voice. I looked toward the door opposite to me. A tall man -not elf- stood in the doorway.
"Armoron?" Rhiannon asked incredulously, eyes wide. "Lady Rhiannon." He nodded.
::Note to self- find out about this guy later...:: I thought.
The king shook his head. "I believe that I am outnumbered. Though I am reluctant, you five may seek out this awful monster. BUT, you must have sufficient weapons." "I shall make sure of that, father." Legolas told him. And so, the five of us walked out of the room.
~*~*~*~*~*~
"How did I get into this mess, again?" Valkeron asked me. "Legolas volunteered you. Plus, it's not like you don't know us; we've been with you for the past month or so." I told him. "And you still do not get any less annoying." I continued. "Thank you." He said sarcastically. "You're not welcome." I muttered, walking away. I could see Rhiannon and Legolas staring at us and talking. I bet her heart was pounding.
"Megami, Valkeron, we have to stop here for a bit!" Legolas called. I turned around. 'Here', was a big room in the castle filled with weapons. "Oooooooo! Shiny swords!!" I grinned. "Megami! Get over here!"
That's bossy Rhiannon for you.
"What?!" I asked, annoyed. "The guy will be here soon." She answered simply. Sure enough, a man walked through the door. "Sorry that I am late. I was making a new sword for another customer. What do you need?"
Legolas stepped forward. "Anything that is sharp enough to pierce a leather hide of an unknown species." "Well, that narrows it down to about 1,000 possibilities." I could tell that this guy was being sarcastic. "How about something suitable for each of each of us?" I asked. "Sure." He shrugged.
First, he looked at Valkeron. "You're that magic-boy, right?" "Yeah. That's me." "Here." The guy handed Valkeron a dagger. "Stop by your house and get whatever magical supplies you need, too." The guy advised. Then he turned to the next person.
"Ah! Prince Legolas, I think I have your new bow here somewhere, right?" "Yes." Legolas said. The weapons guy searched the back room and gave Legolas a bow with a set of arrows in a quiver.
"Armoron, you need anything?" He asked. "No, I have my father's sword." Nodding, the guy looked toward Rhiannon and me. "Since when do ladies go on this type of quest?" He smirked. "Since they're the ones who suggested it." I returned his sarcasm. "Oh, well in THAT case, what would you like, dear lady?" He asked Rhiannon.
"Well, I already have a knife and a compass, so how about a..." "Here" The guy tossed Rhiannon a staff-like thing with small but efficient spearheads at each end. "Cool." She breathed, eyeing it.
"You want anything special?" The weapons guy asked, turning to me. "Depends on what you've got." I shrugged. "You have three choices: sword, spear, or a bow and arrows."
I considered these choices for a moment. Everyone seemed to already have these things. "Anything else?" I asked hopefully. "I was hoping you'd say that." He smiled, disappearing into the back room.
We waited about five or ten minutes, talking. "Here you go." The guy said suddenly, coming through the doorway to the back room.
He handed me a staff carved with a dragon at the top. "A mage, long ago, put an beautiful spell on it. It can turn into any weapon the wielder chooses- while in battle." He smiled. "So why didn't Valkeron get it?" I asked, looking at the guy with a skeptical expression. "He didn't ask." The guy said simply, shrugging.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
With our new weapons, we headed out the door of the castle. Our bags were packed for a week's trip. We went to the stables and got four horses; Rhiannon and I would share one. I wished we had gotten one for each of us, but whatever. Everyone in the village bade us goodbye as we trotted along the small dirt path.
The five of us were off to kill a monster. Nice story for the grandchildren, huh? I'm gonna end up in an insane asylum. If I ever got home, that is...
