Flight To Edoras

It was nightfall now and after burning the bodies of the villagers they decided to make camp a rfew miles outside the town. Heromir had made himself comfortable beside a fire as he shived against the cold. Around him were riders of the rohirrim who seemed hardy being able not even to shiver.

One of them, a tall long blonde hair man, looked to Heromir as he asked," Soldier of Gondor.. Answer me.. How are these... Orcs able to come into our lands when you still ohld Osligath?"

Heromirs eyes met the mans, but as soon as he was gonna answer Amroth sat down beside Heromir and answered," Gondor still holds the city... These are not Mordor Orcs.. These we have encountered I fear are from the White Wizard..."

The soldiers looked to their Captain in dismay as they all felt anger surge through them as one of them said in a angry tone," Saruman has long been an ally of Rohan! Why does he turn on us when we need him most?"

Amroth looked at him blankly," I cannot answer that.. Maybe he has been corrupted by Sauron..."

Heromir looked to Amroth as he asked," Tommorow where do we ride?"

Amroth pondered this question for a couple moments as he then looked back up making eye contact with him," We ride Edoras and report to King Theoden..."

One of the soldiers shook his head," Theoden has long let these incursions happen since Wormtongue has become his advisor!"

Amroth rose up," Long and has done nothing... Men we get no rest tonight... We ride Edoras!"

A wild cheer ran among the men as they poured water onto the fire and they mounted their horses. Heromir got up brushing the dirt off his Tree Emblemed chest armor as he picked up his long spear given to him by Amroth and climbed onto the horse almost falling off. Securing himself into the saddle he followed behind the thundering gallops of the horses as they raced down the dirt pathed road.

After a few hours of riding Heromir had fallen asleep on his shirt leaning into the horses neck, but it still managed to keep up haste with the others. Then a long FLUNG sound was heard as Heromirs eyes immiediately opened as he saw a arrow in a mans neck as he fell off his horse his hand catching on the saddle as his body hit the ground while his horse still ran.

Then all of a sudden a loud unhuman cries could be heard as Uruks ran out of the ditches shooting their crossbows at the unexpected riders. Amroth ran along the column of his men dodging the arrows," Keep riding!! Saurman has learned that we know of his treachury! We must ride!"

Amroth turned around and headed forth as he then felt an arrow hit his leg. He winced, but continued to ride. In a reaction he took his hand to the arrow immediately ripping it out fearing the poison on the tip of the arrow. They finally rode out of the Uruks firing range as Heromir looked behind seeing the Uruks swarm over the wounded men. He stopped his horse riding back galloping at the Uruks. Amroth saw Heromir charge at the uruks, but kept riding thinking he would be dead in a matter of seconds.Heromir then was within ten feet of the Uruks as he aimed his spear carefully throwing it into the one of the Uruks back as it let out a cry before fallin down. He then jumped off his horse unsheathing his shield and sword. The Uruks drew their long swords and charged at him. His eyes widened seeing his horse ride on trampling over ten of the Uruks. One of the Urks charged at him immediately, but then stopped looking down. Heromir then turned the sword insidev of the Uruks intestines ripping it out.
