* you may want to listen to the music above
^-^
I know it's from the Hobbit and not LOTR but it's super good elvish fighting music and it really helps to set the mood :D *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* PLAY ABOVE MUSIC *Spotting the orcs not too far away, you reach your arm behind your back and grab an arrow, placing it into position on your bow. Squinting one eye ever so slightly, your release your arrow and it flies toward the first orc, piercing its forehead. The orc drops to the floor while you smirk triumphantly. The rest of the guard follows your actions and releases a shower of arrows upon the orcs. The foul beasts begin to run in the direction of the guard, gradually getting closer and closer as the leading orcs drop dead, pierced by arrows. When they finally get too close, you signal the guard to raise their swords. Gathering up all your natural elven grace, you leap, twirl and kick your way through the orcs, making them drop like flies. Finally, all the orcs are dead and you nod at the guard, telling them that they did a good job. You mount your horse and lead your people back to the fair city of Rivendell.
~ back in Rivendell ~
You ride down the cobblestone path and through the gate to Imladris where your father awaits you, stood by Legolas and Thranduil. Legolas' eyes are focused purely on you as you pull your horse to a halt and dismount.
" Ada, " you greet, placing your hand on your heart then moving it out towards your father as a traditional elven hug. He returns the gesture and replies, " Iellig ( my daughter ), how was the hunt? Did you locate and kill all the orcs?"
" Aye, we did, however I fear that there are more nearby, plaguing our lands."
" I fear the same thing. They have been returning in larger numbers recently. My worry grows for the safety of our people. We may have to locate the source of the orcs and see if there is anything we can do to stop them coming. " Elrond sighs.
You are about to reply to your father when suddenly a soft noise distracts you, a gentle rustle in the bushes next to you.
You squint your eyes and slowly nock an arrow in your bow, pointing it towards the source of the noise.
" Y/n, what troubles you? " Elrond queries.
You are about to inform your father of the mysterious noise you heard when suddenly a large orc mounted upon a warg leaps out of the bushes and bounds toward you, your father and the Mirkwood Royal Family, briefly followed by five more riders. You release an arrow at the leading warg, watching it tumble down and crush its rider. Gathering five arrows and placing them on your bow, you kill the remaining five in one swift motion.
" Well well iellig, it appears that your endless archery training benefits you well. You have a talent y/n, I trust that you will keep up the good work. " your father compliments you, smiling broadly, a proud fatherly look on his face.
" I will try my best Ada. Now, if you will excuse me, I must get back to archery practice. " Elrond chuckles and nods at you, before turning to King Thranduil ( who you hear complimenting your skill ) and starting a conversation. You begin to walk toward the archery range when you are stopped by prince Legolas placing his hand on your upper arm. The feeling sends butterflies up your arm and straight through to your stomach.
" My lady, I must say, I am highly impressed by your skill in archery!" He smiles in awe.
" Hannon le hir nin! ( thank you my lord ) I have heard many the tale myself of the fighting skill of the Prince of the Woodland Realm. " you wink.
Legolas' cheeks tint a light rosy pink and he appears to be... blushing? You begin to wonder if he felt the same butterflies you did when you touched.
" Thank you Lady y/n , that is incredibly kind of you to say, yet I fear that my skill may fade in comparison to yours. " Legolas answers.
" well... there is only one way to prove that theory... " you smirk, " would you care to join me on a trip to the archery range Prince Legolas? "
" It would be an honour Lady Y/N. " Legolas blushes.
" Shall we? " he asks, holding out his wrist for me to take, being the true gentlemen he was.
This time it is your turn to blush as you take his arm and lead him towards the archery range.This was going to be fun...
