Chapter 7 of Break away…
Reunited…
She waved bye to all the people in the palace. After that he had a sculptor sculpt a statue of her and place it in the village. He told the villagers that they would have a beautiful village in her honor and because she wanted these people to be happy. They were happy about it a little. They were still trapped there. He told them after they were done building the village they would open the gates so that one day she may return to see the beautiful village. He then began to re build Mordor and would rename it.
She ran to the stables to take a horse. The big black horse was kicking the walls restlessly, he had done that ever since he was in there. He wanted to find Sestina. She ran to the medal stall keeping him held in there. She then saddled the horse and grabbed three other horses and saddled them. She held the horses and guided them into the forest the way she watched the others run into.
She entered the dark and cold forest. Her brown curls flying in the exquisite design it was in behind her; as the horse raced the dark cold wind. She watched the scenes pass her by as every little sign of movement would send her head shooting in that direction.
The group herd horse hooves and started to scramble. " Marion!" Sestina yelled. " Sestina!" Legolas and Marion yelled as they all ran out. She stopped her new horse and tried to climb off. They just pulled her down happy that they didn't have to go back into Mordor yet. She hugged them all and they all hugged each other. She looked happy to see her friends once again. They all sat down and ate some food that Sestina had gotten away with. She had food to last them about two weeks, and about three and a half weeks if they all ate lightly.
They all laid down and went to sleep. Well the boys did, Sestina told Marion about what had happened. Marion was always in love with romance stories, and she was listening to every detail. They were all reunited at last. They were happy and content now that they could go to the shire, but there were still questions left on answered. What did they mean she had powers, she was a regular mixed breed girl, but she had heard that fairies were extinct. She laid her head down and drifted into a sleep. She had slept only once since she had been taken by Dominion. There ride there was two days.
The next morning the guys packed up the stuff. They seemed in a rush. She couldn't help but wonder. She watched Legolas's strong arms lift his sack and his blond hair fall in front of his shoulder. He helped her up and then lifted her up on the horse. " I only brought three horses," she said forgetting there was four others. " Its ok," Legolas smiled. " I get my own," Gimli said grabbing the nearest one. " I get my own," Marion said. " I'm the tallest, kind of, well I'm bigger then you Legolas. Sorry buddy, share with one of the others, or you could run, but I doubt you'll keep up," he laughed jumping on a brown horse. He nodded feeling kind of nervous and angry with his friends.
" You can ride with me, besides you're the safest," she said helping him feel better and making the others angry. He smiled then nodded. She waited until he was behind her to give a flick of the reigns. The horse gave immense amount of speed. They held on tight as the horse's burst of speed out ran the others. They tried to ketch up and when Aragorn finally reached them a little Mariel gave another flick and the horse shot off leaving the others behind with out even breaking a sweat. She finally slowed the horse down to a trot, then a walk. Then when she didn't see them, she stopped completely. She then saw them run over the hill. Once they reached her they kept on going trying to keep passing them. She bounced in her seat and the horse went to a trot and it still beat them. The horse was amazing he didn't need to really try, it seemed he had no limit of speed. She laughed feeling free and happy for once. She loved horses all her life and now she was finally on one.
This was her dream, her and a man who she was in love with, they would ride off into the sunset as the people watched on by. She waited a second to look back and smile at him. He smiled back, he was happy as well. He hated Mordor and now he didn't have to go back in there for a friend. They finally came up upon a little village. They slowed the horses down, it was Gondor. The king decided to return to his people for a little. The others nodded as he asked permission with his eyes. He had neglected his position of being king.
He tried to hide his feelings about it. His fellow guards opened the gates letting him and his men in to the gates of Gondor. He looked up into a window to see Arwen standing there. She saw him and her eyes became alive again, she ran from the window and out to the front of the garden entrance. She ran out and jumped on him.
Her wet tears pierced his sad heart. He breathed in her sweet sent. She cried in happiness, her tears being carried in the wind into the village, and they all knew, there king had returned to there future queen. She cried louder trying to control her sadness and happiness. She was relieved to see her love alive.
" Arwen, Arwen, I can not stay more then a day. I was side tracked, we met some people on the way. We most help them and get the hafflings, finish what we set out to do, but I came back for you my love," he said looking at her. " You want me to come with you?" she asked. " yes, we have two other young woman, one who is believed to be elven by Legolas. Please the girls are feeling very you know, weird. Besides you can teach them your miraculous fighting techniques. That and I miss you," he said caressing her face. Arwen nodded yes.
Arwen then ran to her room and packed. She thought to herself if the other woman were prettier or if he found them attractive. It didn't matter he loved her, and she loved him. She grabbed her pack and went and fetched her horse. Her horse was a beautiful gray horse. It was more white then gray though. She brought the horse to a trot. They others were still on there horses. She nodded to the ladies. She was taken back by Marion's beauty. She found Sestina's hair little messy, and her make up a little messed up as well. She didn't care she was a polite person, so she would act as such. She nodded to them with a smile. They smiled back and showed the same curtsy. Legolas gave the horse a bounce and the horse that him and Sestina were riding walked up to were it was that Arwen was while its hooves clanked against the stone walk way.
" My lady Arwen," he said kissing her hand. " Legolas I'm so pleased to see you," she said smiling at them. " This is Sestina, she is elven, she needs a little help with her native language, she hasn't had much practice," He said letting her hand go. " Hi," Sestina said shyly. " Very nice to meet you Sestina my name is Arwen, Arwen Evenstar. I would love to help with that. Would you like help learning the art of the sword? And you seem rather fond of this one Legolas green leaf," she giggled. " Yes," he said bravely. " I would," sestina smiled showing her pretty dimples.
Aragorn smiled at his pretty soon to be bride. That was if he lived long enough for that. He loved Arwen with his heart and soul. He hopped onto his horse and rode down next to his love. They then walked down together. Sestina was happy with Legolas, at least that's what she thought. She couldn't stop smiling around him. She thought there was something wrong with her face. He was already in love with her in a way. He thought of her and how he wouldn't have mind staying in that prison for years as long as when he got out, she was there and they could be together.
There was more to her then ok looks. She was smart and funny, when she wasn't depressed, which wasn't often. But now that she got over what happened with Darien she was happy. She really was happy, she didn't care what could have been with the others. She knew that if she stayed with Dominion she would have wondered what could have happen with Legolas, and she wouldn't have had the chance. She felt sad, she knew that was why Dominion had done what he did, she would have wondered and become grouchy and all kinds of sadness.
They were finally out on the road heading down towards the shire. They were at a fast trot, all the horses tired out before Sestinas horse did. " what is your horses name any ways?" Legolas said. " well I always liked the name Strider," she said thinking about it. " Hey, that's my nick name," Aragorn said looking over at the two sitting on top of the enormous horse. " Oh should I not name him that?" she asked. "No go ahead," Aragorn said laughing.
They finally reached a place to stop and let the horses graze. There was a forest ahead, only they had never seen it there before. It was awkward, they decided to go around it. The horses were drinking at a nearby creek. Sestina sat on a log. She watched the trees in the dark forest sway back and forth. She stared deep into the heart of it some how... It was sad and lonely. It called to her. " SSSESSTINAA… Coomee hheeree," it seemed to whisper through the trees as it stretched out the words. She got up and walked to the forest entrance not even thinking. She seemed to be hypnotized as she was sucked into the forest.
Legolas felt the same way but he felt un safe instead, like the forest wanted vengeance on some one. He looked up from a map he was studying. He didn't know what to think for a second. He shook his head fast. " Sestina! No!" he yelled running after the shape that entered the forest.
The forest was dark and creepy, she herd noises of things never revealed to her ears before. She didn't know were she was going, but then again she knew were she was going. She just didn't know why. She traveled on straight. The brush getting thicker and harder to walk through. The trees seemed to lean to the other and whisper to the others in a timeless dance. She gulped and tried to stop moving, but what ever it was pulled her towards it. She tried to scream but nothing came out. She tried to fall to the ground, but once more there was nothing. She was going to a place she didn't want to go willingly.
" Aragorn! Sestina! She went in there, she looked as if she was hypnotized!" he yelled to the man snuggling with his she elf. He jumped up and put down his cup of water. " You guys felt the calling as well?" he said thinking to him self. " yes, why?" he said quickly. "I thought it was me being stupid, it is a faint feeling though," Aragorn said lightly. " It is a strong feeling here though," Legolas said quickly again. " I don't feel anything, your all crazy," Gimli grunted. " I feel it, I under stand I believe. She felt a powerful hold since she is a human, like Aragorn and a elf like you and me Legolas," Arwen said standing from the spot she was laying. Her long purple dress fell to the floor and one strap covered one of her elegant shoulders keeping the gorgeous dress attached to her elegant skin.
" What makes you think this," Legolas asked. " well you and I felt it strongly, we are elven are we not? And my love Aragorn isn't elven but he is the race of man. She is both elven, and man. But she has Fairy in her, yes I could since that, there like nymphs there creatures of the forest," Arwen Evenstar said plainly. " Your right, lets go, follow the strong feeling you have, and I will follow my little one," Aragorn said grabbing a sword he had taken from his castle.
When she finally ended up were she was ending up she fell to the floor. The hold upon her had been broken. " Lareienia? My queen awaits you," a wizardly man said. " my name isn't Lareienia, its Sestina," she said shakily. " Yes my dear child, but your last name is Lareienia, your fathers name. She nodded slightly then shook her head yes. " Come," he said lifting his hand. When he grabbed her hand a rush of memories and things she should have learned rushed through her head. He then pricked her finger with a knife. She cried out as blood fell from her finger. She then lifted her hand to pull away and he went flying into a tree. She gasped and looked around as every thing got dizzy. She took a deep breath of air. He then came up behind her and injected something into her. " No!" she tried to yell flinging him into the nearest tree. " what have you done?" she asked trying to stand on her feet as she watched her hands.
They ran into the forest Legolas with a bow, Aragorn with his sword and Arwen with her sword. Gimli stayed with the horses and the shaky Marion. They closed there eyes and tried to feel the over whelming feeling. " the feeling is going away," Legolas said not sure what to be feeling. " Same here," Arwen said running. " oh god I shouldn't have left her," he said blaming his self. " Ah!" a voice boomed about less then a mile ahead. It was more of an angry cry then a scared one. Then birds flew from the trees they were nestled into. " What was that?" Arwen asked stopping holding her sword above her head. They then ran forward. They saw Sestina trying to keep her balance. As the old man lay at her feet.
Legolas ran up behind her, some how she herd it and grabbed him by the throat and lifted him into the air until she saw his blue eyes. She dropped him and grabbed her neck. She ran to a tree and hid behind it. She muttered to her self and let out a scream of pain. She crawled away. " let her go," Aragorn said grabbing his friends shoulder. He looked at his friend for a second his eyes open then he looked to the way she disappeared, and shook his head no. Aragorn then let his friend go. He saw the brown curls upon the floor.
Her clothes had seem to be missing. He closed his eyes quickly as she moved a little. She turned over to him a little. She scrambled to another tree and put her knees to her chin. Her long brown curls reached the leaf filled ground. " You guys!" he said yelling out. He was crouching down to meet her level. She through her hands to her ears and screamed. Her hair looked longer and she looked a little different. They gasped when they saw the nude girl hiding behind her long curly brown hair. She looked around side to side as if it was the first time. She was shaking back and forth and muttering stuff in a language they hadn't herd.
" get the old man," Legolas said. Aragorn then went back to the place were the beat old man laid. He dragged the struggling man to the spot. " what did you do to her," he asked the old man. The man didn't respond. Legolas watched his love twitch and mutter to herself. " What did he do to you?" Legolas asked her. " Do, do, to me," she tried to speak. His heart had broken. He felt a pain shoot through him and then sat he sat down in front of her.
" Nothing that has anything to do with you guys, you should stop medalling. Just give me the girl and forget about any of this," he said dusting Aragorn's hand off of him. " what did you do to her!" he yelled pointing his bow and arrow at him. He threw his hand in there air. She screamed at the loudness. " be quiet, she is very sensitive at the moment. I helped her be re born. Now she can have a new start, a new life to remember. She was spoiled basically she was rotted away and deprived not living with her people. She needed to be loved and that excuses of a woman ripped her life away from her before it had began. Now she will slowly learn things, well technically, it will take a lot to make her remember the past. She has all her strengths she was born with. The prick of blood was done with a blade with a spell on it, it took the spell off of her, the one that Trichina performed on her. The antidote was to take her memory and old self away. So it kind of deleted her some how, it wont remind her of the past," he said proud of his creation.
Legolas glared at the man. " you may have just taken any hope of happiness from me," he said walking to Sestina. He went to help her up but she pushed him making him fly three feet. He got up and shook it off and muttered to, " wow," he then walked to her again. " Sestina?" he said looking down at her sadly. He looked into her eyes, they held no remembrance of him, and there happiness. " what," she managed to come out with. " You Sestina, me Legolas. Legolas loves sestina," he said using his finger.
" love," She muttered. " Come with me… please," he said holding his hand out nicely. " You, please… come, come with you," she said holding her hand out shaking in the freezing breeze. " Yes, Sestina come with Legolas. Legolas loves Sestina," he said walking her to the others. Her hair fall down far enough to cover a bit, but Legolas didn't care he held her behind him.
" Legolas, sestina," she said pointing at Legolas's head then to her. Every one nodded and smiled, every one except the old man. " she has to come with me," the old man said. " Over my dead and decayed body," Legolas said grabbing her closer. He looked at them amused for a minute. " You really think that she will come with you? She needs a lot to just get back the memory of who you are," he laughed loosening Aragorn's grip on him.
