Chapter 5: LAUREL POV
We were walking around the underground passages, (Mirkwood is actually a bunch of caves) when we bumped into, yes, literally bumped into Legolas.
"Ai! So sorry!" he cried, helping us up. Ariana looked thoughtful for a second, then grinned.
"Legolas," she said sweetly. Legolas raised an eyebrow. "Could you take a walk with us? We want to go for a walk in the woods, but we knew we couldn't by ourselves." I grinned too. We were going to use him as bait for the twins.
"Why, surely my ladies! Follow me!" and he set off down the passageway. He opened a big stone door, and a blinding light hit us all.
"The light! It blinds me!" Ariana and me cried at the same time. We both looked at each other, confuzzled, then laughed. Legolas looked equally as scared as every other elf in the room/courtyard.
We began our walk. When we were a suitable distance into the forest, two figures whizzed out of the trees on vines, swept Ariana and me up, and into the trees, and clamped hands over our mouths.
I gave little muffled shriek, looked down, and recognized the hand to be slim and white. I grinned. It was an elf. Ariana had come to the same conclusion. I looked at her elf, and she looked at.oh god. THINK LEGOLAS WITH BROWN HAIR!!! Oh yeah, and less high cheekbones. Oh goodness they were hot. Ariana and me looked at each other, eyes wide.
I wiggled my tongue out of my mouth and touched his hand with it slightly. Looking at the ground, Legolas was gone. The elf, one of the twins I wager, let go of me. I gasped as I fell forward. He grabbed me around the waist, and then yelped as hands slid around him.
"I've got you two! Let them go!" I recognized the voice to be Legolas'. They let us go, and we turned around. But sadly, with all the commotion and coming dusk, spiders decided to pop in for a tea party!
I SCREAMED as loud as possible. One came down behind Legolas, and tried to pierce him. He spun away, yelling for us to run. But me, having severe arachnophobia, I just squeaked, "Ariana,"
She jumped over to my branch, knocking me out of the tree and out of the line of fire. We both tumbled. THANK THE VALAR FOR MARY-SUE REFLEXES!! Other then that, all other Mary-Sues can die.
The spider shrieked, and started at us. Ariana whispered, "Kick it in the head, like you would a shark." So as it came forward, I lashed out, and kicked it between its bulbous eyes. It scuttled backward, then advanced on Ariana. She did the same, but because of her obvious interest in the spider, and non-arachnophobic symptoms, she kicked it a wee bit harder. Just a wee.
It stumbled backward, obviously enraged. The twins and Legolas leapt forward and began to fight. But little did they know, there were three more advancing on us. "Oh shit." I muttered, as two advanced on Ariana, and one on me.
I lashed out again, but it was ready. It grabbed my foot with it's pinchers and, you guessed it, pinched. HARD. I screamed REALLY loud. Legolas looked over, and yelped as he saw the spiders leaving Ariana to gnaw on me!
"Laurel!" Ariana screamed. She grabbed a knife out of her boot (how come I don't get a pretty knife?) and cut off one of the spider's legs. I screamed again, louder. It had broken my skin.
Ariana leapt onto a spider and slit it's back open. Then she gave me a knife from her other boot. I grabbed it and hacked off its head. As black blood poured all over my leg, I felt like puking. I quickly wrenched my leg out of the spiders grasp, and found the twins just now killing the spider. The last spider was already dead.
I heard more scuttling. "There's more," I said quietly. One of the twins picked me up swiftly, and we all ran toward the gates.
"SPIDERS!!!" Ariana yelled.
"Thank you Captain Obvious," I said softly, as Spiders were pouring, yes, literally POURING out of the forest. The twin who was holding me chuckled, then set me down. As soon as I touched the ground, I was swept away by ANOTHER elf. This time, it wasa healer.
Ariana followed close behind. "Let's take a walk in the forest," I growled. She smiled at me.
"But what would have happened if we didn't warn them and they didn't shut the gates in time?"
Crap, I thought. She's right.
I LURVE YOU LAUREL IN A TOTALLY NON-LEZZIE WAY!!! NOW IF YOUD READ MY STORY, YOU MIGHT REALIZE SOMTHIN!!!
