A Slave named Amy
by Jade Limill
Chapter 3
Lord Derrick crept out as the fifth patrol that afternoon passed him. He was starting to think that they had tightened up security in the past two days. He finally reached the edge of the city. He decided to watch for the rest of the day to see if he could find out where his prize was staying. If he could avoid her bird.
He was nearly about to give up, whenhe heard a pair of twins talking about a girl with a falcon. He followed them to the biggest house.
That night, he looked in each window until he found her asleep.
"Sleep, while you still can little Amy," Lord Derrick said softly. "For I /will/ have you back."
"Lord Derrick was here last night," Storemwing commented to Amy after breakfast. The twins were once again trying to get the falcon to come over to them, this time with deer jerky. "Do you want to tell them that falcons don't eat deer? They are too big for us.
"Not really. Are you sure it was him and not someone else?" Amy replied.
"Sure as it is bad hunting at night. He said sleep while you still can little Amy, for I will have you back.' I tried to get his eyes, but he was gone when I got there. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have told you, now you're trembling like a mouse at breakfast." Elladan and Elrohir asked Amy what was wrong, offering to get a healer.
"No, I'm fine, really," she said, smiling weakly. "It's just something Stormwing told me. Oh, and falcons don't eat deer. If you asked nicely enough he would just come over to you."
"Thank you," one said, smiling. "May I ask what the Lord Falcon does eat?"
"Mice, rabbits, or any small game," Amy translated.
"We thank you, the other one said, "I am going to get something for the Lord Falcon to eat."
"How am I supposed to tell the two of you apart?" She asked when he left.
"My brother Elladan, always wears three braids and I only wear two," he responded. "Oh, and we switch every three days to create havoc. We switch tomorrow."
"Why did you tell me about the switching, I don't think it would cause to much havoc if everyone knows about it."
"We don't tell any one that unless they ask, and mostly they don't," Elrohir explained. "So we are still able to cause trouble."
Elladan came in with the stew. He brought four bowls, three of stew, and one with only rabbit meat in it. He handed the bowl of rabbit meat to Amy, who set it beside Stormwing as other bowls were passed out.
"Tell the twins I said thank you," Stormwing said.
"You are most welcome, Lord Falcon," Elladan said after Amy translated.
"I would like to be called Stormwing. tell them that."
"We would be honored to call you Stormwing," Elrohir replied to Amy's translation.

demee- Thanks, but since some people, most people I know, hate Mary-Sues, this is not going to be one, hopefully.
Moralinde- Thanks, I do try.
me as i am- yes, well, you get the door prize, Lindir /is/ a bit friendly. Sorry, but this story is not even goingto have Legolas in it. I'm focusing on Glorfindel, Lindir, Elrohir , Elladan and Elrond as elves go, but if someone asks nicely, I could guest star an elf or two.
