Chapter Seven
The months that past have been ever so peaceful for me. Andrial and I have come to grow very fond of each other, after that dreadful night. We did almost everything together. We would often take afternoon rides, where Andrial will tell me some of the most important things to her. I felt she was closer to my feeling then my own father. After that night, when Andrial final laid out everything that was bothering her, I felt my heart leap out for her. She wasn't tuff like she made herself out to be, but she was kind and gentle inside.
"My lady, shouldn't we be heading back by now?" I asked Andrial while we sat at an open stream.
"This place is too beautiful for me to leave it now. I wish to see the sunset Legolas!"
"But the road is far to dangerous for us to be out in the open like so."
"Do you doubt your ability to save us if something were to happen. For I know that Legolas, prince of Mirkwood, is a strong elf warrior that isn't afraid of anything."
"It's not that I'm afraid, I'm just worried about your well being. Creepy things crawl around Mirkwood at night. That is why it is smart to be safe behind closed doors."
"Sure we can leave right after sunset, please??" She gave me the most saddest look I have ever seen.
"Alright, but we must leave right after. For Giant Spiders run these parts of the woods!"
"Thank you so much Legolas, the sun is setting in a moment it won't take long." I had my bow and arrows ready just in case anything was going to take place while Andrial wanted to watch the sunset.
"Legolas, isn't that a beautiful site. All the colors mixing together, caa naa vanima It is beautiful"
"Not as beautiful, as the rays of the sunset shines on your silken face, which makes thee even more beautiful, if possible!"
"Legs, your just saying that."
"No, I mean it from the bottom of my soul. You are like an elf I have never seen in my long years. You cherish natural beauty, and so do I, that's why I cherish you so." Andrial took one look at me, and then redirected her stare at the dying sun. I didn't want to bother her in her moment of peace. So I just kept my guard for foul creatures.
"Legolas, did you hear that?"
"I did, I think it is time for us to go, while there is still light!"
"I have no desire to disagree with you there!" She gathered herself up off the ground and jump on to her horse, and I onto mine.
"Ride hard Andrial, and don't look back."
The horses sped away as fast as horses could run. I looked to the side of me and noticed that Andrial wasn't there. I was trying to listen with caution at my surrounding, trying to listen to another set of hooves beating against the ground. But I hear nothing. I turn my head and find Andrial laying on the ground with her leg pierced with an orcish arrow. I jumped off my horse with out if even slowing down. All I could think about was the woman I'm deemed to marry was lying on the ground wounded.
"Tarien, tarien Andria. What happened?" slightly shocked at the sight before him.
"Legolas, look out?" Right then I saw an arrow fly right by my face, hitting a tree in the process.
I notched my arrow, and shoot whatever came into my view, that didn't appear to be elvish. One by one, I shot as many orcs, as possible, and one by one they dropped to earth's floor. When, all the orcs I could see were dead, I went on a fast pace towards Andrial.
"Tarienamin, don't worry I'll get you too a healer!" In one swift motion I took Andrial body in my arms, and carried her to my horse.
"Taren Legolas, I feel so weak." Said Andrial in a weak voice, I knew right there that the arrow must have been poisoned.
"Uuma dela, tarien. Lle anta esta tarien, esta!"Don't worry, princess. You need rest, princess rest I felt her head lean up against my chest, as she fell into a sleep she could not control.
I road as hard as I could to get back to the castle, except if felt as if I would never get there. I saw in the lights of the surrounding city in a distance and knew I was getting closers to getting help for my potential wife. I still can't believe that Andrial and I have went from her hating me, to great friends in the three months that we've known each other. However for me, I know there's more I want out of the relationship. Her she is lying in my arms clinging on to life with what strength she has in her. Oh how I would give anything to make sure she'll be alright. I mean to know for sure that she will live through this. This Angel in my arms has become more precious to me than just being forced to marry her. What was that? Someone gasping for air. I looked at Andrial…
"Andrial No!! You can't Leave Me. NOOO!"
