You Are My Sight, You Are My Voice
(A/N)- Hey there I do not own any Lord of The Rings characters, but I wish I did!! I do own Caroline Jones (aka-Yarrow, later on her name changes.)
(This story is not about me it is about a character I have made up. I'm sorry if you took it that way, but it is not. Also this is placed before the movies when the books were making a come back and there was news of the movies. Of course the characters look the same as from the movie. Sorry for the confusion! Enjoy!)
Thank you to all my readers I really appreciate the support!

Caroline's POV.-
(Well all I seem to be doing is walking… hmm… but where am I? It feels as though I've been walking for at least a few hours now. Why can't I see anything still?)
I kept walking even though I couldn't even see the nose on the front of my face.
(I wonder if there is anyone around here that can help me…)
Almost as though on cue I heard a noise in front of me. I still couldn't see, but I heard the sound coming closer never slowing.
"I though I heard something over here!" shouted someone. It was a gruff voice, which sounded a tad irritated.
"You're hearing things again!" said another voice. Equally irritated about being dragged along for the search.
"What's this?" I heard the first voice say. "Is it an elf, or a human?"
I grip my new walking stick and began to shake… An elf? Who would call someone an elf? Where was I? That's when I realized…
(The book! Maybe that was why everything went dark when I read from it… why else would I land in grass and not on the floor next to my bed… I'm in Middle-Earth!!)
Now that I knew that I was here in Middle-Earth I needed to know where exactly in Middle-Earth I was. Was I near Rivendell? Or somewhere else entirely. I prayed a silent prayer that I was no where near Sauron or Mordor, for when I was skimming the book earlier I found out that he is the one who wants to destroy all that is good in the world and rule Middle-Earth.
Just then I realized that someone had a firm grip on my arm and was dragging me somewhere. I tried to break free but failed, I then opened my mouth and tried to scream, but was hit in the back of the head for punishment it seemed. I lost consciousness and everything went silent.
End POV.-
"Well guess I was right there was something out there! You owe me five coins!" said the orc that had found Caroline, and was carrying her now.
"Yah, yah!" replied the other. "Just you wait, but we have to take her to Saurman first! He said if anything turns up anything that we were to take it to him immediately!" he finished as the two of them began the ascent of the tower Orthanc.
As they reached Saruman's main chamber, they found him standing next to the pedestal that held the palantir. He seemed to be talking to the Dark Lord, but the orc's knew better than to disturb him while he was doing this, so they waited.
"What is it?" Saruman's voice boomed.
"My Lord we have found what looks to be a human woman just outside the tower." Replied the orc standing next to the one carrying Caroline.
"Good…take her to one of the extra rooms. I will be along shortly." Saruman replied, a small smile crept upon his lips.
"This must be the maiden that my Master said had come from another land. He told me to cast two spells upon her for she knows what is to happen in our world before anyone else. He said she is to be feared, but I see nothing fearful about her. Oh well she shall be no trouble to us now…"
He watched as his two servants turned and walked down the hall towards the room he was talking about. He turned back to look at the palantir, and smirked. No she would be no trouble or help to anyone at all… he went to cover the seeing stone and with a swish of his robes was off after the two orc's and the unconscious girl.
Caroline's POV.-
(Why do I hurt so much? What happened? Where am I? I hear someone talking, but I'm awake…it's so dark…why?)
I try to sit up, but my head begins to spin. What was going on? I hear them speaking and I can tell it's a man's voice, but I just can't seem him… this is so weird!
"Ah! You are awake, good," says the voice.
I begin to ask him where I am and who he is…but…nothing comes out! I can't speak! I know my lips are moving, but absolutely nothing comes out!
The man begins to chuckle at me. I feel him sit on the edge of the bed near me.
"I am Saruman as I am sure you are trying to ask and you are in the tower Orthanc," He said. "As to why you can not speak or see, well…let's just say the Dark Lord knows who you are and he doesn't want you to interfere," he finished.
(OH MY GOSH!! I can't believe this!!)
I try once more to make some sort of sound come out, but to no avail.
Saruman laughs once more at me.
"It is useless child you can not say a word to anyone and you can not see, this is how you will remain!"
Tears begin to fall from my sightless eyes that have turned now from a greenish brown to a dull black. I feel a hand move to wipe away my tears, but I shy away.
"You shouldn't cry for nothing will help now. You will remain here till I see fit to let you leave. Till then…Duran!" he shouts. He stands up and walks away from the bed a ways and stops.
I hear and feel the hurried footfalls of another being of which I did not realize was there.
"Y-yes m-my Lord? What is t-thy bidding?" Duran asked.
He is obviously a young boy, about my age by the way his voice sounds.
"You will be the caretaker of this girl till I see fit. Do not let her go anywhere near the caverns, but she may walk outside in the gardens," Saruman informs him.
I hear more footfalls and the tap of what sounds like a staff, begin to fade away. I then hear the sound of what I think is Duran walking towards me. He comes and sits on the end of the bed, and I can feel his stare. I stare back even though I can not see.
"So…um… My Lord, Saruman tells me you can not see and can not speak. Well I shall tell you something," he pauses. "there really isn't anything to see here at Orthanc cept' maybe the gardens and even then they isn't much to look at."
I listen quietly to him talk, and he seems to appreciate it. I can only imagine what it's like to live here in Orthanc with Saruman and all those orc's. He must be from a village near by, and has come to be a servant to Saruman.
"Well I guess I ought' to leave you be, now I'm sure you are tired, but I have to call you something… well I'll think of something tomorrow. Till then good night milady." He says and I feel him rise from the bed. I reach out and grab his arm and he turns quickly obviously surprised at my actions. I smile and bow my head at him and release his arm. Duran pauses and pat's my hand.
"Good night milady, I shall come and wake you in the morning, and don't worry I'm sure I'll all turn out alright in the end. Do not lose hope." And with that I hear him leave.
I lie back in the bed, and cover myself with the covers I quickly drift into sleep. One thing I know is that tomorrow anything could happen, so I must get rest.
End POV.-
Saruman's main chamber:
"My Master the girl is here in Orthanc, I shall keep her here till you command me to do otherwise. Also the work on the army will begin in a week's time… until then my master."
