Chapter Fourteen
"M ani nae tanya Legolas?" (what is that)
We both heard a disturbing noise coming from the cluster of trees from behind us. The noise became louder as the sound was coming closer.
"Andrial, please stay here!" I asked of her.
"But, Legolas. I want to see what is going on too!"
"Please melamin, I almost lost you once. I don't want to take that risk again."
"I'm a big elf, Legolas, I can handle myself!" she spat back at me.
"What if they are Orcs or something dangerous? Then what will you do? I'm the only one here with a weapon."
"Then I will just have to run back to town to get help. And I."
She was interrupted by an inhuman like sound coming from the stirring trees from behind.
"You know Legs? I think you're right and I'll just stay put!"
"Diola lle melamin!" (Thank you my love)
I prepared my arrow for any sudden attacks. Whatever this foul beast was, I can only imagine it was not human in the least. It was definitely not an elf like being, so the possibility of it being an orc was out of the question. Then it hit me. Only one type of beast lurks around this part of Mirkwood. I could only be a.
"Oh my god, Legolas. Watch out it's a giant spider!" Andrial shrieked with pure horror.
These creatures were twice my size. I noticed one heading in our direction, and as fast as my elven senses would allow, I quickly shot this ruthless thing right in its left eye. The body of this creature came crashing into the earth's floor. One by one they were coming towards us. I heard a loud shriek coming from Andrial's direction. I quickly rushed off in her direction, dodging the spiders that were in my path. She screamed for the second time and that is when I noticed her being dragged by her left leg. I took my elven knife and ran towards the beast, and cut off his left that had a hold on her.
"Don't worry about me; just go get the rest of them!" Andrial said in between breaths.
She was referring to the three remaining spiders. I am really sick of this, every time Andrial and I are alone something happens. Think back to the time I thought I would loser her, gave me a sudden urge to go on a killing spree. The spider with the lost leg was the first to charge at me. Since I was out of arrows I had to use my knives. It was not a pretty picture, and I mean that for the spiders. It is a real shame that the earth's floor was being washed in this spider's cursed blood.
"Melamin, lle tyava quell? Lle anta amin tu?" (Do you feel well? Do you need help?)
"Amin naa quell!" (I am well)
"Let's get you back to the palace where you belong."
"No, I'm fine. Realy, no harm came upon me."
"Be we should really get you back. Just to check if you are completely okay."
"Fine, but I don't need you to carry me. I'm fine on my own!"
"If you say so!"
"Really I'm fine, I think." I helped her get upon her feet when she cried out in pain. " Put me down Legolas!"
"Sorry melamin, I thought you said you were fine?"
"I thought so too, until I stood up!"
"Please forgive me, but I have to."
"To do what Legolas.?" then I answered her question. "Oh!"
I had no choice but to lift up her dress so I could take a closer look at her leg. Sure enough it didn't look too good, but not too bad either.
"Legolas Greenleaf, you better not be down there taking extra glances if that is why it is taking you so long!"
"No Andrial, but thanks for the idea..." I gave her a grin.
"Legolas!" She hollered.
"Don't' worry love, but it does look like your leg is swollen a bit. Come let's try to get home ok."
