Middle Earth discussion

Be wary- you never know what dangers lurk here

Anne walked from the prancing pony into the network of the streets of bree. She felt so sad, worried and lonely she didn't care too much if someone attacked her.

Aragorn was now out of the pub after sitting their for a while and finishing his drink he collided with someone he muttered a "sorry" than he looked at her she is small like a child

Anne let out a startled yelp as she fell to the cobblestones. She hurriedly picked herself back up, baring her teeth, and stammered, "It's ok."

he helped her getting up "i hope you're nt wounded" he asked curiously "wat aatw you doing here late at night It's not safe" he warned her

"NO, I'm not," she said in a slightly stressed tone. "I'm fine with it being unsafe," she said, tearing herself from his grip. "What i'm doing here is none of your concern."

"but I don't feel like good why is that every girl here is trying to risk her life ?" he asked "why everyone putting themself in danger is this wat you teenagers do ?" he was getting a little annoyed at her

"No," she spat back, "Not all girls my age are like me." She looked down. "They haven't had the same experiences like me."

"experience costs much more than being inexperienced" he said to her "I can accompany you to your house" he offered with generosity in his eyes

Anne let out a laugh. She looked at him, smiling. "Don't have one," she said offhandedly. She picked up her bow from the floor, slung it over her back, pulled the hood of her cloak over her face, then turned around, preparing to leave.

he grabs her arm and yanked her back "what you think who you are ?" he spat at her "you're not greats like Gandalf or Legolas" he challenged her

Anne spun around, an innocent look on her face. "What do I think I am?" she grinned. "Why, I am a mere human, of course, who goes by the name of Lily," she lied, smirking. "And I know. But I;m not so sure Gandalf in on my goos side right now. Haven't seen him for 6 months." She yanked her arm back and spat, "Leave me alone. You're not in charge of me. Just because you're years older..."

"well yes you're a mere human who is arrogant enough to roam out in this dark and serve as a food for some orcs or other dreadful creatures" he spat at her with poison in his voice "who do you think you're to meet Gandalf he don't have time for proud people like you"

She shrugged. "Perhaps you're right, and arrogance is one of my best traits. Keeps my battle reflexes going," she smirked. "And I don't care if I end up dead, I have no-one anyways."

"if you don't have anyone it doesn't mean that you won't get anyone and I'm responsible for everything which takes place here" he said in a monotone to her "and it should be anger and eyes which should control your battle reflexes not arrogance because it destroys people

"It does mean I won't get anyone. And, for the last time," she hissed, "You are not responsible for me! I think," she said, just to prove her point, "That I can take care of myself after having suffered endless torture under Sauron's eye for 2 years and then escaped yesterday!"

"well well my dear wat sauron will want from a girl from you sorry no offense but we never found any prisoner when we won the great battle" he told her coldly "and what you think who I'm ?" he asked her in a higher manner

She frowned at him, then rolled her eyes. "Is my history really that unbelievable?" She spat, although she flinched slightly from the coldness in his voice. "Because it's true. You didn't find me because I was placed with Sauron, always at his side, I was enveloped in the darkest of all shadows. He fell yesterday, yet he is coming back." She smiled a sad smile. "Why would he want a girl like me?" SHe demanded. "The answer is simple. He wants me because I defied him by trying to rescue my brother, who's dead now. He wanted me because I'm a 14 year old girl, vulnerable. He wanted me because I was ENTERTAINMENT," she almost yelled out the last word.

"this explains most of the things he is ruthless he wants everyone in his control" he said affectionately "but something is still nagging at me you said you were in his prison for two years and you said you haven't seen Gandalf from 6 months wat should I make of this ?" he asked "because if he knows about you he should have told me he never hides any thing from me"

She frowned. "I saw him pass the fortress from my prison cell. I was high up, underneath the topmost battlements. I screamed for help, but none came. I screamed and screamed until Sauron had his personal assistants bind me up and play around with me, stabbing me and drawing blood." She shivered.

"ahh I see than I think you're pretty tough up now" he said he was still in doubts with the girl but the way she was talking it makes sense yet still he was doubtful about her identity they had searched evry evil place they had rescued froddo too but they never found traces of a girl being captive and she just told him that he fell.yesterday and coming back "I'm strider" he forwarded his hand waiting for her move

((sorry didn't get the notification))

She nodded, then took his hand cautiously. "The Archer, or Anne," she mumbled, now feeling bad to have lied to him before.

"Anne ahaa I see and I was thinking that you are called Lily" he said in an amused voice he wanted to tell her his real name but he can't trust everybody roaming in the stree

(( it's o.k ))

She gave him a shy smile. "Forgive me, but I find it hard to trust people."

"ok apologies accepted btw my real name is Aragorn" he said without any emotions or pride in the name

"Aragorn," she repeated, the word flowing off her tongue smooth as water flowing over pebbles. "Nice name."

"yes thanks but my friends calls me strider and I prefers Lily" he said seeing the look on her face he explains "it's a flower Lily and I loves Lily I used to give them to Arwen my love" he told her "and I'm the heir of isuldir" he added

She bit back a laugh. "Okay," she said. "You can call me that- it can be my nickname." She bowed. "My Lord." her parents had given all their respect to Isuldir when he was still alive.

putted his hands on both her shoulders and said "you don't need to do that I'm not worthy of that or says I still don't deserves that" he chuckled at the idea of her nickname "you're tough and a little arrogant it doesn't suits you I mean bowing and yes I'll call you Lily" he added "i think I can accompany you now" he winked at her

She smiled. "Thanks, but my parents had a great respect for you and your father." She straightened up, but wouldn't meet his eye. "But to where?" She asked. "I have nowhere to go."

"ahh thanks but I never met my father I just heard a lot about him" he whispered and sighed "where were you going obviously you weren't planning to collide with me or was it your plan" he asked grinning to her from ear to ear

"I actually was never planning to meet anyone..." She grinned back, then shrugged. "I have no connections, to anybody, I have nomore family... so... yeah."

"you can come up to my place but it's not really that great it's a small place" he said to her holding her hand like a family member does

(( I don't have a housing lol ))

((I'll make u one))

"Really?" She said. "But- I don't think I should..."

"no you have to come with me" he said pouting at her "no one wil mind a girl in my house" with that he started moving and motioned at her to follow

(( thanks ))

She closed her eyes, "No, you're doing the puppy dog pout-" she took a peek and doubled over, laughing. "Okay." With that they left the menacing streets of bree to Aragorn's place.

((no prob))

"hey that's the best face which I can make in ages no one complaint over" he also started laughing with her and then they were gone into the darkness

(( end of Anne and Aragorn's thread))

Ferus walked through the streets, looking for work. Any work. He was so... bored.

Anne walked back into Bree, shivering. She took her woven sword out, keeping an eye on it. It was not glowing blue, so she decoded to put it away, not really caring if danger appeared.

Drax loved Bree. So many potential new mistresses and/or victims. He looked around for elves, trying to pick out the most beautiful of them.

Anne brushed a lol of red hair behind one of her ears. She looked a bit like an elf, and used to spend time with her little brother pretending they were immortal. Beings. The blade of her sword remained duuk, not glowing. Deciding she had nothing to fear, she sheathed her sword.

Drax approached a red-haired girl, noticing her slender figure. He knew she wasn't an elf, but whatever. She was still kinda hot, he decided.

Anne frowned as she heard a presence coming towards her. She drew the sword and raised it, settling into a brace position as she spun around.

Drax laughed when he saw the sword. A pathetic tool, he thought. Mundane compared to the scythe on his back.

Anne saw it was a young man, who seemed around five years der than her. She thought, 'whatever, he's human' and tucked away her weapon, not realizingvthis may be a huge mistake. She sighed and looked at him, eyes narrowed. She was not afraid of him.

"Hello, darling," Drax said, smiling. The clouds became darker. He examined her. "Ugh, jailbait," he said, reverting to modern lingo. He turned and started to walk away.

"who are you to call me darling?" se spat at him angry. " I dot even know you."

Drax turned. "Feisty, aren't ya, darling?" he asked, deliberately making her angry. If he couldn't take her he could at least rough her up a bit.
