Hey. My computer was down for a while so I haven't been able to update.
Actually, I lost that computer so I had to start all over on the new
computer.
The long anticipated (well, it was a long time) chapter seven is finally here, but first a word from our sponsor. Hears groans Have you ever wished you were someone else? Someone famous? Well the not- reality show in their shoes can let you be in famous persons shoes. Would you make the same dicisions as them? Find out next on in their shoes.
Announcer: Welcome to
Crowd: In their shoes.
Host: Todays contestants are star stallion and Astievia. Both enjoy writing and reading fan fictions, more specifically Legolas and Aragorn friendship fics. Because Star Stallion is such a good author and because Astievia is the author of this thing we have asked them to be our first contestants on...
Crowd: In their shoes
Host: Now Star stallion, the first question is drum rollwhat would you do if you had a million dollars? a. Give it to charity b. Spend it and save a microscopic amount for collage. c. Nothing, I died before the book really took off.
Star-stallion: My answer is b.
Host: And what would you do with it?
Star stallion: I would be living it up in the Caribbean with Captain Jack Sparrow and Will Turner whilst sitting atop a mountain of money.
Host: Interesting answer, Star stallion, you are...
Just then thousands of orcs broke into the room (how they fit in my bedroom I don't know)
Orc leader: You can't do that, you don't own LotR!
Host: Yeah I was about to say...
Orc leader: Whatever, you don't own LotR, and neither does Astievia.(That was my disclaimer right there guys) to fellow orcs Ready bows!
Join us next time for in their shoes!
Elladan had explored as much of the cave as he could and had found that it was actually a tunnel and there were several passages leading different ways throughout the cave. Because of wanting to be with his twin he had not explored any of the passages and instead stayed on the main pathway. Elrohir had gone back to sleep and was lying on the mat near the front of the cave. The fire still raged outside the cave.
Night was soon to come and their food stores were almost depleted. Elladan grabbed a torch that he had found a little way deeper in the cave and decided to explore one of the closer tunnels. He had not gone very far when he came to another torch just like the one he had found in the other tunnel.
Going farther he found more and more. They were spaced about every thirty feet. Elladan didn't light them, although it was unreasonable, he was mad at the fire for killing his brother. 'It was funny,' he thought, 'the same thing that killed his brother he was relying on for light, and in that light, life.'
VVVVVVVVVVVVVVV
Legolas helped Aragorn as they ran from the fire. It was gaining on them. Estel's breath came in short gasps. A tree in front of them caught on fire and came crashing to the ground.
The pair looked for a way out, but the only way was through the fire. Suddenly the ground below them creaked but the roar of the fire cut off the sound. A spark flew from the fire and landed on Estel. Before he could do anything the ground suddenly dropped out beneath the two and they were plunged into darkness.
When Estel awoke he was lying on his back. The only injuries he found were the one on his leg and he suspected he had a few bruised ribs and a burn from the fire. Estel heard a groan.
"Strider, are you ok?" It came from the disheveled prince of Mirkwood.
"Yeah. And you?"
"I'm fine" Legolas said and then groan again at the pain in his arm. He hoped Aragon hadn't heard it.
He had. "Well then if you're fine you won't mind me checking you over."
"No, you don't need to do that. I'm fine." Legolas protested
"I insist"
"Where are we?" Legolas said in an attempt to distract Aragorn from his present state of mind.
"I don't know, some where under ground I suppose. Now let me see what's wrong" Said the young ranger
"I'm fine." Legolas said again.
"We all know that 'fine' in your language means that you are seriously ill or hurt. Now let me take a look or else I'll tell my brothers about what happened to their favorite tunics"
"Okay okay, I'll let you see. Stubborn human" Legolas brightened his glow so his companion could see to get to him.
They were apparently in a tunnel. The ground was covered in straw that must have broken their fall. Aragorn walked over to Legolas and his friend couldn't help but notice his limp.
"-But only if you let me check your leg." He smiled
"It doesn't hurt" Estel tried to stop limping but the pain was too great.
"Riiight. And goblins are the nicest creatures you will ever meet. I am checking that leg."
"Yeah, yeah." Aragorn got down on his knees beside Legolas and resisted the urge to wince at a small sharp pain in his knee
"Where does it hurt?"
"Um, everywhere"
"Be pacific." Aragorn sighed.
"My arm and my ribs." Aragorn gently took up his friends arm. It was cold.
"Can you move your arm?" He inquired.
The elf tried to move his arm and winced. "No, it hurts to bad."
Aragorn felt his shoulder where the pain was centrally located.
"I think it is out of the socket. I'm going to put it back in. Brace yourself. On the count of three..." The Estel pulled and with a pop and a yelp from Legolas the arm went back into its socket. Legolas held his arm to his chest.
"Now to your hurts."
"You still have some ribs for me to check out and I need to put a sling on your arm."
"After I check your leg."
Aragorn shook his head. "No, I have to put the sling on your arm first. I don't want you to hurt it more by accidentally moving it."
"I wouldn't do that." But as if to prove the ranger's point his arm was jostled and Legolas winced.
"See" Aragorn got some herbs and cloth from his pack. He crushed the herbs and added water to form a past and gently massaged it into his friend's shoulder. As the pain receded Legolas' tense body began to relax. After Aragorn was done he used the strip of cloth to form a sling and placed the now numb arm in the sling.
"Ok, now to you, Estel. I'm going to check your leg first." Estel pulled up his trouser leg to reveal a very bloodied bandage.
Legolas found the edge of the bandage and pulled it off with an "Ouchie, boy that smarts!" from Aragorn. The gash has a rust colored crust on it.
"Um, hate to tell you this, but your leg has a small infection. I'm going to have to clean it with saryt."
"I understand." Said Estel starting to move away.
"Where are you going?" Legolas asked.
"I said I understood, but I'm not going to let you put that stuff on my leg." Aragorn was now searching through his bag.
"But-" Legolas protested.
"I have some herbs in my bag that clean just as well but also have a numbing agent in them. It is much rarer than saryt." Aragorn was now pulling out a small greenish bag. He took out four yellow leaves and handed them to Legolas.
"That's all you need." He said.
"Just put them in water and soak them for about five minutes, then place them on the wound."
Legolas did what Estel told him and he literally saw the infection seeping away. After the Aragorn was tending to Legolas' when the elf suddenly sat up straight and held up his finger to signal silence.
I hear someone coming He whispered.
Soon Aragorn heard it too, the sound of many footsteps coming up the corridor.
