Is this a Tragedy or a Game Changer?

by Lady Silverfrost

Slight AU. I am trying to make this seem as realistic as possible and make Tolkien's characters stay in character. There are many modern girls in ME stories, but not as many that have them end up in Angband. This is my take on 2 modern girls ending up in Angband and the chaos that would happen. Even more chaos if they happened to appear during Maedhros's captivity. Torture warning.

47. Chapter 47

No one panic! I have not abandoned the story or anything like that. I have suffered through math class. A math class shoved into a single month! Math is my worst subject. I had a 61. Anyway, this short chapter is reassurance! I will post a longer chapter later this week and it will also be from Haldamire's POV.

I pushed my head against Tar-Mairon with a sigh. How many wolves were going to fight today? He rested his chin on the top of my head as I shifted to get more comfortable. I needed to see my little fluff to ascertain the extent of his injuries. Tar-Mairon said he would be quite well, but I must have patience. It is apparently a good virtue.

I glowered thinking about Langon's interruption of the wolf fight earlier. I do not trust him at all. He spoke to Tar-Mairon for a long time in a language I was unfamiliar with and when I gave Tar-Mairon a curious look all he did was smile thoughtfully and lean back without paying me anymore attention. He has also shushed me the last two times that I have tried to speak! Of course, I'm not going to push him because I certainly don't want to have my sewn shut again, but I gave him a sulky look so he knows.

I winced involuntarily at a horribly shrill yelp from one of the fighting wolves. It appears that his opponent had bitten into the soft flesh of his ear and tore it. I'd try to give Tar-Mairon a pitiful look to stop this wolf from getting hurt more, but it might encourage him and besides, I couldn't look at him with his chin resting on my head.

"Haldamire" Tar-Mairon whispered softly in to my ear moving off my head. I turned in his direction as him warm breath washed over my neck. "I need you to do something for me." I gave a surprised jerk and looked at him wide-eyed. He needed me to do something for him? What could I do for Tar-Mairon. "If not for me then for your little friend Haldamire" My mouth dropped open in shock. Airawende? He needed me to do something for Airawende? "Will you help your friend Chloe?"

I choked out an astonished assent after a long pause of shock. Then listen to me closely. He leaned forward and I started leaning too with a strange feeling pass over me. His golden eyes are so hypnotic.
