We had been walking for a long time. My stuff was on Aragorn's horse, Haflas and I was walking next to Eowyn. She started to talk to Aragorn so I walked up to Legolas who was watching the road ahead.
"Legolas, what was your mother like?" He watching the road but answered coolly
"I don't want to talk about it."
"Some is on your mind. I can see it in your eyes." Legolas didn't look at me and replied
"Why do you care?" I bit my lip and replied slowly
"Because I am your friend and I care about you." Legolas walked ahead of me and pulled out his bow and fitted an arrow to the string. That was when I saw a warg racing towards us. His arrow killed it and he shouted to Aragorn
"Warg scout!" I pulled out my daggers, but Theoden rode towards me.
"Not this time, Vilya," I frowned and replied
"You do not tell me what to do! I decide!" Aragorn walked up to me and said
"Vilya, go with the women and Eowyn."
"No!" I screamed at him.
"I will die with you and Legolas, and that is the end of the story." Aragorn shook his head and got up onto his horse.
"You can walk." I bit my lip and stopped the tears. The riders rode past me, leaving out in the open plain. I ran. I ran like I had never ran before.
When I reached the battle, men lay in pieces over the field. I stabbed a warg and cut an Orc. I fought my way to Lwgolas.
"Not even a stone wall could hold you, Vilya." He said. I grinned and said
"Not even the Dark Lord of Mordor could." Legolas smiled and we fought the warms and orcs. Finale they were all dead.
"Where is Aragorn?" I asked. Legolas shouted
"Aragorn!" We walked to a cliff and saw an Orc lying on the ground. He was dying in a lot of pain. Gimli held his axe it's throat.
"Tell where Aragorn is and I will ease your pasting." The Orc laughed and said
"He took a little tumble off the cliff." I jumped to my feet and raced to the edge of the cliff. There was nothing.
"No!" I whispered. Legolas walked up to me and opened his hand. Arwen's evenstar lay in his hand. Tears dropped down my face. Theoden came up and said
"We must move on!" I screamed into my hand. It muffled the sound, but both Theoden and Legolas looked at me. I broke down. Sobs shook my body and I was shaking.
"If Sauron ever comes across my path, I swear that I will kill him." I whispered. Then I felt strong arms wrap around me. I sobbed into Legolas's chest for about a minute. Then he gently let go of me and we walked away form the cliff.We arrived at Helm's Deep late that evening. When we got inside, I dropped onto the floor and closed my eyes.
