...:: Till Death Do Us Part ::...
Buffy fought the orcs, who kept coming one by one, fiercely and
angrily. No one messed with Haldir, not if she had anything to say
about it. Haldir's eyes were watching her closely, intently, she knew
because she could feel it. Aragorn had long since left Haldir's side
to continue the fight, and Buffy knew she had to get Haldir to safety.
"Haldir, do you think you can walk?" She turned around quickly to see
Haldir nod. "Alright, stand up melamin.... We've got to try to make it
to the Keep." Haldir said nothing, only nodded. Buffy looked around at
her surroundings. Orcs everywhere! There was no way she would be able
to push through all of them with Haldir wounded and bleeding. It would
be death for him and her! "Damn...." Haldir came up beside her and put
a hand on her shoulder. "Leave me." Buffy looked at him incredulously.
Instead of saying anything she turned and slapped his face. "I did not
save you just to let you die!" Haldir nodded, understanding. "How do
you purpose we get to the Keep, then?"
Legolas pulled more arrows from his sack on his back. More and more
Orcs were making their way over the wall, overtaking the elves and the
men. Most of the men had already made for the keep, but the elves had
stayed and fought. Legolas shot some arrows and killed some orcs, but
his main concern was finding Buffy. He had to make sure she was in
good health. Looking around on the Deeping Wall, he spotted Buffy with
a limping Haldir on the West side just where Gimli and he had been not
too long ago. Buffy kept turning, trying to find a way to escape the
orcs that had now encircled them. "Oh my ...." Below, something else
caught his attention. Aragorn and Gimli fought side-by-side with an
encirclement of their own. His eyes flew back to Buffy who was now
trying to put some since into the elf beside her. "Shore up the door!"
Legolas heard Theoden yell and he knew he had to pull Aragorn and
Gimli up to safety first. "Aragorn!" He tossed a rope over and Aragorn
grabbed on, pulling Gimli at his side and Legolas pulled them up to
safety.
Buffy pushed Haldir off of her. "Now, the real magic is going to be
shown." Haldir looked at her confused. The orcs snickered, pointing
and taunting at the elf woman before them. Buffy paid no attention and
Haldir could have sworn that this was the time he would die, and
Buffy, along with him. Buffy stood in the center and held her arms out
at her sides. Her face turned upward at the sky. A misty blue light
shadowed down on her and the wind picked up her skirts and wet hair,
causing them to fly. Suddenly, Haldir too, was under her spell.
Buffy's Voice Over:
i'm so tired of being here.... surpressed by all of my childish fears.
and if you have to leave, i wish that you would just leave...
Haldir, in Rivendell, watching Buffy with her little sister, Arwen,
and older brothers who were twins. They all played together, happily
as if nothing bad could ever happen. His main focus became on Buffy
and saw her starring straight back at him. Smiling. It was geniune and
true.
because your presence still lingers here and it won't leave me alone!
This time, Haldir saw Buffy peering into a room and then leaning
against the wall, almost to tears, once her father and siblings left
the room. Haldir felt a great grief now, and it seemed to only deepen
when he watched Buffy enter the room.
these wounds won't seem to heal
Haldir watched Buffy walk, as if in slow motion, up to the bed before
her. But he didn't get a chance to see what else happened or who lay
on the bed, for his sight was now with him in Lorien. He blinked a
couple of times, seeing nothing but the city and talans now.
this pain is just too real
Haldir remembered now what day this was. The first time he had ever
laid eyes on Buffy. She rode up with her father and brothers behind
her, greeted by the Lord and Lady. She had a since of pride, honor,
charisma, and charm that had always clung to her. The day he had
actually fallen in love with her.
there's just too much that time cannot erase.
Now in Haldir's talan, Buffy walked up to him with eyes harsh and
biting her lip. Haldir saw the sorrow in her eyes, the pain of knowing
that she had been used by him. Haldir bowed his head in shame, wishing
he had never made that bet.
when you'd cry, i'd wipe away all of your tears. when you'd scream i'd
fight away all of your fears and i held your hand through all of these
years. but... you still have all of me.
(Back at the fight) Buffy stood, motionless with the orcs still
encircled around her and Haldir. The orcs were under her spell as was
Haldir, seeing things from her memory. Legolas and Aragorn ran up and
stopped, seeing that Buffy was all right, along with Haldir. One-by-
one, Legolas and Aragorn slaughtered the Orcs, but it seemed more
piled up to see Buffy after the others were killed. "She holds a power
over them and us that not even the Ring can claim!" Gimli remarked,
coming up to help his friends. Legolas and Aragorn simply nodded. "And
she is going to be my wife!" Legolas smiled proudly.
you used to captivate me by your resonating light, now i'm bound by
the life you left behind. your face it haunts, my once pleasant
dreams. your voice it chased away... all the sanity in me!
Haldir now stood in Rivendell, as part of the court watching Buffy in
a beautiful white gown with her crown on, walk up the way, escourted
by Elrond. Haldir grimaced, realizing what he was seeing but hoping it
wasn't true. His eyes shifted over to the altar where he saw Legolas,
his brothers and father along with a priest below an archway.
Everything looked surreal, white, and dreamy as if it were all a
dream. Haldir took back his last thought. More like, nightmare.
these wounds won't seem to heal... this pain is just too real. there's
just too much that time cannot erase.
He continued looking around, trying to find a way to escape, but it
wasn't possible. His eyes fell back on Buffy, who was now at the
altar, her brothers and sister, along with her father were on her
left. Legolas's family, on his right. They held each other's hands as
they spoke vows. Tears fell from his eyes, he couldn't bare this
sight.
when you'd cry i'd wipe away all of your tears, when you'd scream i'd
fight away all of your fears and i held your hand through all of these
years, but you still have all of me.
To Haldir's surprise, Buffy's head turned in the direction of him and
was now speaking, or rather, singing a sweet melody to him.
i've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone and though you're
still with me, i've been alone all along.
(Back at the fight) Buffy came back into her normal state and saw that
Legolas, Aragorn, and Gimli were now propping Haldir up. The orcs that
had been around them, were all gone and she noticed that the orcs in
the field were gone. Haldir, she also noticed, had now come out of a
stuper and was staring at her. "What happened?" Legolas was glad to
hear Buffy finally speak. "The orcs were summoned back by Saruman. I
believe he felt your power enamering from you and thought it not wise
to continue it." Buffy nodded. "To the keep, then." They all walked to
the keep, holding Haldir up as they went. The sun began to rise on the
east and Buffy turned her face up into it feeling its warmth. Finally,
some peace!
