Chapter Eighteen, Planning for Battle
"It's true you don't see many dwarf women," Gimli told Evelina, Neville, Luna, and Eowyn. The four of them were walking on both sides of his horse. Legolas, Aragorn, Boromir, Theoden, Sirius, and Theodred were riding on horses a little behind them. "In fact, they are so alike in voice and appearance to dwarf men that they are often mistaken for dwarf men." Evelina giggled and looked back at Aragorn. 'It's the beards,' he mouthed, stroking his chin. Evelina, Luna and Eoywen broke out in giggles.
"And this in turn has given rise to the belief that their are no dwarf women," Gimli continued. "And that dwarves just spring out of a hole in the ground." Eowyn, Evelina, Luna, and Neville were laughing hysterically. "Which is of course preposterous. Woah!" Gimli's horse surged forwards, knocking him off. Eowyn rushed forward and helped him up, trying to stifle her laughter. "Nobody panic!" Gimli shouted. "That was deliberate! That was deliberate!"
"Sure it was, Gimli," Neville laughed.
The next day, Evelina rode on the front of Legolas' horse with him curled up against him. Legolas followed Hama and Gamling up to scout ahead. "What is it?" Gamling asked. "Hama?"
"I'm not sure," Hama murmured.
"Look out!" Evelina shrieked. With wide eyes, Hama ducked under the incoming warg. "Stupefy!" Evelina yelled. The warg dropped down, stunned. Legolas fired an arrow, killing it. "Go with the other women," he pleaded. "Aragorn take her to the others." Legolas instructed as he handed their mate to him. Not wasting time Aragorn ran back with Evelina in his arms.
"We're under attack he called!" He set Evelina down gently placing his hands on her shoulders. "My love please go with the others. We cannot lose you."
"All riders to the front of the column!" Theoden ordered. "Come on get me up here I'm a rider!" Gimli shouted as he truer to climb on to the horse he was sharing with Boromir only to nearly fall off the other side. "Forward! Charge forward!" Gimli ordered the horse only for it to go backwards. Boromir taking potty on the dwarf climbed up behind him and rode into the fray. "Eowyn," Theoden called. "Lead the people to Helm's Deep."
"I can fight!" she yelled back.
"No! You must lead the others to safety including Eve, make sure you keep an eye on her you know what she's like." Eowyn turned her head to look at her niece who was arguing with her parents and Lord Aragorn she could see the young girl was frightened not for herself, but losing her family, not that she could blame her. "Luna go with her to make sure she stays." Sirius ordered the young elf. "No! Dad, I'm not leaving you! I can't lose you again dad!" Evelina protested scared for her father tears running down her face as her fear for her family and her hormones got the better of her. "I'll go with Sirius Eve, Boromir, Gimli, Aragorn and Legolas will be there we'll be safe.
You trained me Eve you know I'll be fine I was trained by the best and so was Luna. The others need you and Luna to protect them Eoywn may know how to fight but she's never been in a war we have. They need you, you can do this." Neville assured his sister. Sucking up her courage and bottling up her emotions- that her family didn't like- she nodded her head and began ushering the people who couldn't fight down the path as the riders charged into the wargs and orcs.
