Disclaimer: I don't own Star Wars. I don't own LOTR. I wish I did but I don't. The changes of Anikan's and Obi-Wan's ages and relationship I do own. Obi-Wan's in his mid-twenties. Ani's about 16 or 17ish.
Author's Note (DON'T SKIP!!! VERY IMPORTANT!!!): I know its been awhile; sorry. School's almost out so the chapters should be coming up faster. Thank you to the many reviewers who pointed out the mistake in the spelling in Anakin's name. My books are in my doored bookshelf, but I didn't really want to face the avalanche that would start if I opened it. I think his name is spelt right in this chapter. I'll fix the first chapter soon, I promise. This isn't my favorite chapter but it kept things moving so oh well.
Obi-Wan awoke to the sound of heavy footsteps. He reached for his lightsaber, but a booted foot was placed on his wrist, and he was injected with a Force-inhibiting drug. He was surrounded by a group of fifteen to twenty Uruk-hai. It was useless to fight; his hands were bound tightly behind his back, and belongings packed up. Then the Uruks lead him off further into the woods.
Obi-Wan was still being lead by Uruks. It was now the night after he'd been captured, and the group was about to stop and rest. Suddenly, three Uruks dropped like flies. Each had been shot by an arrow in the back of the head. An elf leapt out of a nearby tree, and made his way over to Obi-Wan, fighting Uruks as he went. When they were alongside each other, he slashed at the bonds with an elvish knife, then handed the weapon to Obi-Wan. They fought together until the Uruk-hai were all dead. Then Obi-Wan turned on the elf, elvish knife still in hand.
"Who are you?" he asked, suspicious.
"My name is Legolas. I'm not going to hurt you." The elf said. "Now seeing as you're in elvish land, I'd like to ask you the same question."
"Obi-Wan." came the answer. He was about to give the knife back to Legolas, but Legolas refused.
"Keep it. You may need it." He said, picking up the other knife and handing it to Obi-Wan, then unstrapping the sheathes from his back and handing them over as well. "Now, follow me. I'll bring you to Rivendell where we can care for those wounds." He referred to the deep cut across his left shoulder, and a few other bruises.
They left the clearing in the direction of Imladris. Suddenly, Legolas heard something of to left. He motioned for Obi-Wan to follow him silently then snuck up to the edge of another clearing, there a man was reprimanding two very small people while a third stood off to the side. Legolas notched an arrow. Unknown to him two brown-haired elves, on the other side of the clearing, were having the same thought. Before he let his arrow fly one of theirs flew over the man's head, passed Legolas's ear, and into Obi-Wan's shoulder, coming part way out the other side. Obi-Wan cried out and dropped to his knees. Legolas took one look at the arrow and knew it belonged to the twins. He leapt into the clearing, before they could fire more.
"Legolas!" Aragorn called. "That wasn't your arrow. It came from the wrong direction. Who was it?"
"The twins." He said shortly. "Elrohir! Elladan! That's enough. Get out here." The twins came out slightly worried. They'd heard the cry, but it didn't appear that Legolas was injured.
"Who'd I hit?" Elrohir asked, concerned.
"A friend. Now each of you grab a Hobbit. We need to get to Rivendell now." He left the clearing, followed by his friends, and picked up Obi-Wan who was now unconscious. Then the four set off to Rivendell at a sprint.
"ADA!!!" Elrohir screamed as they ran up the steps of Imladris. Elrond appeared in front of them in seconds with Anakin close behind.
"This way." He said, leading them to the nearest empty bedroom. He motioned for Legolas to put Obi-Wan on the bed. "Frodo is in the last room in this hall." He told the Hobbits. They ran out of the room to see Frodo. Then Elrond turned to the Jedi on the bed. "What happened?"
"I hit him, accidentally." Elrohir said guiltily, looking apologetically at Anakin, as this was obviously the 'master' he'd been looking for. No one mentioned that he'd been playing a joke on his foster brother. Elrond nodded. He pulled Obi-Wan's shirt off to make sure he could get at the entire wound.
"What the…?" Elladan said, when they all saw the huge half-circle scar that covered the right portion of Obi-Wan's stomach, between his ribs and hip.
"It's none of our business." Elrond said, intent on the healing. He snapped the arrow tip off, as Legolas prepared some bandages. When they were ready he pulled out the arrow and wrapped up the shoulder. Then he turned to the four others. "You may stay if you want. I must tend to Frodo now. Let me know when he wakes up."
With in a few minutes of the door closing behind the Lord of Imladris Obi-Wan woke.
"Why does this always happen to me?" he moaned. The five in the room jumped. They hadn't expected him to wake up so soon.
"Obi-Wan!" Anakin cried happily. Obi-Wan glanced over at him.
"Yes!" he cried. "I didn't lose the little shit. Qui-Gon's not going to kill me this time." He made an attempt to sit up, but Aragorn gently pushed him back down.
"You're wounded."
"You make sound so life-threatening." Obi-Wan said rolling his eyes. "The proper terminology for this is incident is hurt, not wounded. Now, who was it?"
"It was I." Elrohir said guiltily. "Sorry."
"Wouldn't be the first time…" Obi-Wan said. "Actually it wasn't an arrow that time, so I guess this is the first time…Oh well, it doesn't matter. Forgive and forget. Now who are you and where am I?"
"I'm Elrohir." Said the respective twin. "These are my brothers, Elladan and Estel. You're in Rivendell."
"The healing place?" Obi-Wan asked, turning to Legolas. Legolas nodded. "Great." The Jedi muttered. "Just what I always wanted." Anakin laughed.
Reviews:
oblivious-jedi: Glad you like it. I fixed the error. Thanks for pointing it out.
skywalker05: The building exploding was just sort of a way of getting them to middle-earth. I might go deeper later but for right now that's it. I know Obi's not characterized perfectly. In this fic he's going to be much more reckless. I was trying to make him and Anakin have something in common to make them closer. Glad you liked Ani vs. orcs. Obi vs. orcs in this chapter. J
Annon. 6:6:6(): Ahhh! Another Obi-lover. J Yes! Hope there was enough Obi in this chapter.
Mara look-a-like: Hey! Glad you liked it. Thanks for reading.
JugheadFan123(): Updated! Glad you're liking it.
Lady Tolwen: My driving force!! Thanks for reading, my only double reader/reviewer. AND you've read all the JA. You rule! I own them all too. They rule. Hey, what did you think of number 6?
Next update: possibly the council, maybe before
