Legolas was half awake and half in the dream world. He wished it was a bad dream but when he opened his eyes, he was still in the same damp and dark cell as he fell asleep in.
The only good thing was that he did not seem to have so much pain from his wounds anymore. It took him a while before he remembered.
He looked up when the door opened. Saruman walked in again.
"I see you are rested. Now let us see if you are ready to talk, little Elf." Saruman's icy voice said.
Legolas kept quite. He would not tell him anything.
"Keeping silent, are we? I will teach you. By the end of this day, you will talk. I am sure of it." Saruman said while grinning.
Legolas did not like that look.
To his surprise Saruman made him loose, but Legolas could escape since his legs hardly carried his own weight.
Standing up, he was forced to walk before Saruman. The wizard brought him to an arena.
"You will fight them with your bear hands. Let us see at the end who will be laughing then." Saruman explained while walking up a stairs and sitting down in a chair.
Two Uruk-Hai stepped into the arena. Legolas eyes them weary. He was not sure if he could move as fast as he usually could. His ribs seemed to be broken.
One of the Uruk had a sword in his hand. He moved to strike Legolas. The Elf took a step back when the second Uruk hit him with his fist.
Falling to the ground, Legolas tasted blood in his mouth. Spitting it out again, he jumped up and while stepping aside once more, he made use of the opening in the Uruk's defention to strike to his throat.
Legolas saw the Uruk gasping for breath when his fist connected with his windpipe.
Making use of the opportunity, he took the sword and finished the Uruk off.
"Good job, my prince. I am glad to see that you are a good fighter. Now let us see how you fare against ten of these Uruk. But I have some business to attend to. You will have to do it alone. He better is left alive when I get back." Saruman hissed to his Uruk.
Legolas eyes the Uruk again and his brain was working hard to come up with a plan. But first he had to survive these 11 Uruk then he would be thinking about escaping.
Raising his sword, he managed to kill two before he felt a hard blow on his back, which caused his knees to give out underneath of him. Two Uruk pinned his legs down and one sat down on his chest.

Nienna saw Saruman leaving the room. Looking in, she saw Legolas being pinned down by the Uruk. They would leave him alive but he would be gravely wounded.
She had to make a choice. She could let the Uruk have their way with him and then go to his room later. Or save him now and risk being exposed.
She could take him out off here, everything had been prepared. They would make for Fangorn Forest. It would be the safest place.
There she would be able to treat him. She had made her choice and it was time to do the right thing.

Legolas saw surprised somebody could feel so much pain as he was feeling right now. He prayed to the Valar to put him out of his misery.
He looked up when the Uruk were no longer sitting on his legs. They were attacking somebody else.
Well somebody who had already killed three. He just didn't know how she was doing it since she was obviously not a very good fighter with a bow and arrows.
She was very lucky that the Uruk were surprised and soon they all were killed.
When she crouched down next to him, he said. "It is you. Get out of here while you still can. I cannot move."
She smiled at him and then gave him something to drink. Legolas felt his strength returning to him and was pulled up to his feet.
"Come and stay close to me. I think you are far better with a bow and arrow then me. I will take the sword. We can escape now without being pulled back by his might. Just follow me.'
Legolas nodded and followed Nienna through small halls and after what seemed like hours they were finally outside.
Legolas sank to his knees. The pain was returning to him. He was pulled up again and Nienna whispered in his ear. "Please hold on. We just need to go a little bit further."
Legolas nodded again and while supporting on her, they continue to make their way out of Orthanic.

Legolas drifted in an out of consciousness. He was vaguely aware that they had stopped but soon the world became black again.
Nienna was getting worried. It was night and they were in Fangorn Forest. But Legolas had collapsed soon after they had reaches it.
She had threatened all his wounds but her recourses were limited and she did not have enough herbs to keep him here and wait until he got better.
He needed somebody else. Somebody who knew better but who?

Voices was all Legolas heard before he realised he was awake. And the fact that he was warm and that his body did no longer hurt him. Well not as much anymore.
Opening his eyes, he found himself staring unto the leaves off a tree.
"Glad to see you awake, my boy. You had us all worried." A booming and familiar voice said.
"Gandalf?" Legolas asked uncertain.
Soon the wizard came into view and he smiled at Legolas. The Elf smiled back and while being pulled up is the wizard, he rested his back against a tree trunks.
He saw Nienna sitting across the fire and the girl smiled at him. Smiling back, Legolas asked. "You got us out?"
She nodded and Gandalf said. "Yes, she did and she also found me. It took me a long time to get her to trust me. But she knew you needed help so she had no choice. Nienna, get some water, please?"
She nodded and while walking away, Legolas asked Gandalf. "Do you know her?"
Gandalf nodded and a sad expression came over his face. "I don't know her personal but I do know her parents."
"Is she related to Elrond?"
Gandalf looked up and said. "Yes, she is. She is not his daughter but his granddaughter. Her father is Elrohir. He does not know of her existence. Her mother and she were taking captive when she was very young. I think she is about 1500 year old. And she has been with Saruman since she was 800. That is a long time but you are lucky she found you."
"But how do you know of her then?"
"Her mother escaped and went to Galadriel. But she was too wounded and died only to tell her that her daughter was still in captivity. Elrohir never heard that part but did hear that his loved one had died."
Legolas nodded and fell silent until Nienna came back. While she handed him some water, he said. "Thank you for saving my life. If there is anything I can do for you, just let me know."
Nienna smiled and said. "If you would be my friend that would be enough for me."
Legolas smiled back and said. "It would be an honour, my lady."
Gandalf then said. "Go to bed, both of you. Tomorrow we will meet up with Aragorn and Gimli."
Nienna nodded to him and while lying down, she fell asleep while Legolas continued to talk to Gandalf.
Hope you liked it. Please review.
