Another chapter so soon? Very surprising for Astievia, don't you think? My brother is also writing a fanfiction and he started his story a week ago and has already got several chapters up, so I had to do another chapter quickly, I can't have my little brother pass me up.
Now to the show.
Jack Sparrow walks in
Jack: Ya'll orcs don't need to be pickin on these fine ladys.
Astievia: Jack! What are you doing here?
Jack: Just come to be the hero of this story.
Astievia: But we already have a hero. And this is NOT a PotC fanfiction.
Jack: But your heros are stuck in a hole, they sent me to fill in.
Star-Stallion: That's fine with me swoons
Astievia: Why couldn't you have brought Will to?
Jack: Sorry hun, but it would make poor Legolas have an identity crises, savvy?
Orc leader: Oh no! Do you own PotC then? We can't have you writing stuff you don't own.
Astievia: I own no one 'cept the OCs(duh) Not Jack nor Legolas burst out in tears nor anyone else, got that! I know that. I just like to have fun with them.
Orc leader: I will let you, if you return them in one piece.
Astievia: Not a chance. Jack can you help me? Jack…
Star-Stallion: Sorry, we are going off in Jack's pirate ship to sail the Caribbean with Jack and Will.
Astievia: In that case, I'm coming to! What the heck with fanfictions…
Host: Oh no! What will we do, the author and other contestant have run off with Jack. What will happen to the show? When and where will it be next? And most importantly, will ya'll ever get another chapter?

'Virawiel woke up wit a jolt. Where was she? The last thing she remembered was the smell of cinnamon and falling into a deep sleep... The maiden coming and setting her arm... That evil human... Virawiel realized that she had been moved from where she last awoke to a new place. This room was just as dark and damp as the one before, but smaller. The light from the door cast eerie shadows over the wall. She could see two guards standing outside her cell. Voices from the pair drifted into her hearing range and she listened to what they were saying.
"I don't like taking care of no dragon. I'm afraid it might toast us or something."
"No, it wouldn't do that. It's out cold. Were just here to make sure people ain't getting' curious and coming down here to gape at the boss' new pet. He wants money for that. We's lucky, we get to get paid to see 'em." The other guard said.
"Still, don't feel safe with a dragon in the next room."
Virawiel checked to see how her arm was doing. She had a splint on it and she could tell it was mending by the itchy sensation in here arm. She heard commotion and a new voice asked
"You don't like my new pet?" It questioned.
"N- uh yeah, of course we like your pet." One of the guards replied
"Well then come with me and we shall see how she is doing."
There was the sound of keys jingling and the door squeaked open.
"Is she awake?" A cautious voice of the guard asked.
"I don't think so." The other replied.
Virawiel smiled to herself. 'This outa be fun.' she thought. She suddenly got up and gave a big roar. The guards faces went white and they couldn't get out of the cell fast enough. Virawiel on the meantime had collapsed back with a sharp pain to her wing.
"Fools!"
A voice rang out "get back here now!"
The sinister man she had seen earlier walked in the room. He saw her holding her wing to her chest and mock frowned.
"Now, now dragon, we wouldn't want you hurt yourself more would we? Just lay down and rest that arm. We need to talk."
"That what you think." Muttered Virawiel under her breath.
"No, I know we need to talk. Now dragon" he paused.
"I forgot to get your name, sorry. Now what is it? We can't have a proper conversation when I don't know your name." he said.
"Tell me your name first." she replied with a much malice in her voice a she could muster.
"Gladly." he smiled. "My name is Dûrlhug. But you, dragon, can call me master."
The man laughed, but not a funny laugh, a sinister, evil laugh that chilled Virawiel's bones.
"Now dragon, what is your name?" Virawiel thought about changing her name but then wondered what good it would do. "Virawiel." She replied curtly after a small silence.
"Good, now that we have got acquainted I can tell you exactly what to do..."

At the end of the hall Elladan found an ornately carved, wooden door. Carved into it were two snakes and under them was a poem that read:
In the earth he make his home,
But where he is, great evils roam.
Be wear traveler of his ways,
For at first a friend he seems.
But in the end trouble he brings.
In the room were simply a wooden desk and several chairs. By the dust and spider webs that littered the room Elladan guessed that no one had been in there for quite some time. There was only one interesting thing in the room, a book. Elladan dusted it off and began reading. The pages weren't as brittle as he would have expected and the writing was in the common tongue. He didn't read much, it seemed like a lot of gibberish and numbers to him and his internal clock told him that it was almost night time so he needed to head back to his brother. He decided to bring the book with him and started on his way. When he got back he found his brother sitting up.
"Hey Ro, I'm back! Look what I found."
"I can see you are back, you make more noise than a goblin going down the passageway." Elrohir snickered
"I do not!" His brother protested.
"Heh, you must be deaf." Elladan walked away as quietly as he could and got some lembas and dried meat out of his bag.
"Here's dinner, lembas again."
"Oh lovely." Elrohir said with sarcasm.
"After you finish I need to check your injury."
"Yes mother." Elrohir and his brother finished off the lembas and meat quickly and Elladan checked his brother's injury.
The wound was healing well and the angry red of the infection had gone down, leaving a little pink, but that was all. Elladan put on some herbs to help the wound and keep the infection from flaring up again.
"Well..." Elrohir said when Elladan was bandaging his wound.
"Well what?" Elladan questioned
"When can I get up and go exploring with you?"
"Um, Maybe in a few days. Luckily for you I have something for you to do in the meantime.
"What?"
"I found a book in the room I also bumped into at the end of the hall."
"Clumsy as well a loud." laughed Elrohir.
Elladan play punched his brother but Elrohir nimbly dodged the punch.
"Hey, watch out for the wounded."
"Who's wounded?" Elladan said innocently
"Why I don't know" said Elrohir starting to get up but a restraining hand of his brother kept him down.
"No you don't Ada instructed me to get you home in one piece"
"So what book do I get to read?" Elrohir asked, changing the subject.
"I don't know, it is in the common tongue and has a lot of gibberish in it. I was hoping you could decipher it for me. You were always better at common than I."
"I shall try. I wonder if the fire ha gone out yet?" Elrohir said, changing the subject once again.
"I'll go see" Elladan was already taking off.
"Come back and tell me if it is out, and for goodness sake come back if it isn't out." Elrohir yelled after him.
Elladan walked quickly down the passageway. His feet were noiseless, despite what his brother had said and in the silence he felt as if he could hear his hart beating. Still several feet from the mouth of the cave Elladan could see that the fire had gone out. Only charred twigs and ashes remained, leaving a black scar on the face of the mountain. Elladan practically flew the last few feet to the edge of the cave and hi eye searched where his brother and friend had last been seen. Although Elladan knew it was fruitless he still yelled his brothers name.
The only reply was the cry of a far off timber wolf, its last note dying out into a silent night.

Aragorn stood up as soon as he heard the men. He looked up ouut the hole and saw that the fire was out. 'We must have been out longer than I thought.' but it wasn't them who caught his attention, it was a far off cry that sounded like his name.
Estel was soon pulled out of his thoughts, and onto the ground by Legolas. "Wha-" Legolas pulled with great pain both himself and Aragorn over to the corner, dimming his light as he did so. All of Aragorn's questions were answered by one word,
"Evil."
