~~Elian's Pov~~

I stood there paralyzed and staring at my brothers horribly infected wound.

"Have you been hiding this from me?" I ask tying a dish towel around the oozing wound.

"Please Elian, I only hid it so you would have to risk your life for me again, I can manage." He said wincing in pain.

"No, the medicine for this is only i-" Cevon cut me off.

"Mirkwood, and don't think you are going there."

"Yes I am right now, and you are staying here. Make sure you keep that covered and wet." I said packing some Elvish whey bread and two changes of clothes.

"NO! Elian you will die! I-I can't lose you, I've lost everything else, your all I have left." Cevon said getting tears in his eyes.

"And I can't lose you, I'll be back in a weeks time, promise me you will keep that infection under control, please Cevon." I said embracing him in a giant hug.

"I promise." He said hugging me back.

As soon as he let go I ran outside of our small poor falling apart, crapy home. We live in the small forest behind Lord Elrond's mansion/castle, surprisingly nobody has noticed we live here.

"Okay, here we go." I say to myself as I climb up a tree, not making a sound, swinging and swirling around branches. tree to tree, I do most of my traveling in trees.

I've never been to Mirkwood, They are so dangerous. But hopefully the rumours are true about Prince Greenleaf, dreamy sky blue eyes, icy blonde long hair. I thought to myself.

Just as I jumped to the next tree I heard Elves talking, I was very close to the kingdom of king Thranduil and Legolas.

"So where is the Western patrollers today?" A elleth asked her comrades.

"Well obviously on break today, you hear the king say it." Another elf said but this was male.

"Oh, I wasn't paying attention." The Elleth said

I went to go jump to the next tree, but as soon as I stepped further up the branch I was on, the Mirkwood guards stopped in their tracks. As they did I froze too.

They heard me, oh-no this is it. I'm going to there dark, evil, small dungeon. Oh Cevon, I'm sorry.

"Did you hear that?" The young elleth said she was about my age.

"Yes, Yes I did. It came from the trees." The older male elf said.

Crap! I have to get out of here, Cevon, I can't leave Cevon!

I climbed out of the tree as quiet as I could, but failed when and an acorn fell on the ground.

UGH! I'm so frigging stupid! Why do elves have to have good hearing? I have to run.

"HEY! CATCH HER!" The elleth yelled.

I ran further into the woods and bumped into something while looking back at the guards.

"Why, hello young elleth." A male voice said he sounded around my age maybe a little older. I never answered him.

"I see your in trouble. Hmmm?" He asked.

"Yes she is my lord, she was spying in the trees!" The male guard said panting heavily, I could tell he is out of shape.

Wait? My lord? Is this Legolas? Oh-no, I have to escape.

"Hmmm. I see, take her to my Ada then to the dungeon." He said in a very leader like voice.

"NO! Please, m-my brother he is sick I wasn't spying! I swear!" I screeched causing the prince to grab my arm violently and cover my mouth.

"Shush! No excuses! Take her now." He said in a stern voice, I was terrified.

I started to cry and they kept laughing but immediately stopped when they entered the Kings headquarters.

"Why do you bring this young elleth in my headquarters?" The king asks. His voice booming around the room.

"She was in the trees and she bumped into prince Greenleaf, he told us to take her to you and then bring her into the dungeon." The female elf said. The male had a tight grip on my arm.

"So, what brings you here?" The king asks standing up and walking towards me.

"I don't answer to filth!" I spat. The King got angry and ordered them to lock me up in the dungeon.

The female departed from us and the male shoved me into the cell, then he emptied me from all my weapons he even found the little pocket knife stuck behind my ear.

"Wow. That's a lot of weapons!" He said throwing them in a cabinet beside my cell. He wasn't like the other Elves, he had a sense of humour, not a very good one though

"Please, let me go." I knew it wasn't going to work but, I tried. He didn't answer he just locked my cell and walked away.

I'm sorry Cevon I've failed you, I'm so sorry. I started to cry as I lay in a old rough cot.
