Chapter Twenty-Two, The Beacons
Aragorn was outside playing with Teddy who had finally allowed them to take him away from Evelina even if only for a little while. "Daddy no." Teddy giggled as Aragorn caught him lifting up into the air before holding him to his chest and tickling him. "Daddy stop! Stop!" Teddy laughed as Aragorn tickled him a wide grin spread across Aragorn's face at hearing Teddy's laugh and calling him 'daddy' he couldn't and wouldn't get used to it, it was the most precious gift in the world. Ceasing his tickling Aragorn held Teddy close pressing a kiss to his son's forehead. "Daddy? What that?" Teddy asked confused pointing to the flames shinning bright in the distance.
Looking up to where Teddy was pointing Aragorn's eyes widened as he saw the beacons were lit. "It's the beacons Teddy someone calls for help. We have to tell your grandfather." Aragorn explained gently as he held Teddy on his hip and rang towards the council chamber bursting in on what seemed to be a meeting. Evelina, Legolas and Haldir coming through another door no doubt having seen the beacons as well. "The beacons are lit. Gondor calls for aid." Aragorn informed the Council. There was a pregnant pause as everyone looked to King Theoden waiting to see what he would do. "Grandpa?" Evelina questioned taking Teddy into her arms when he reached out for her.
"And Rohan will answer." Theoden said fiercely immediately setting things into motion as everyone raced out to get ready to leave. "Where do you think you're going young lady?" Sirius asked firmly as he saw Evelina in her armour and being helped onto a horse by a stable hand as Theoden, Théodred, Eomer and Aragorn got the men ready and sent them off to gather more men and to meet at Dunharrow on the second day as the third they ride for war. "I'm just riding to the encampment dad." Evelina told her father innocently as she sat gracefully on her horse Teddy sat in front of her strapped to her by a sling so he didn't fall. Andromeda and Teddy were just travelling to the encampment like the other women of the Court.
"The truth Eve before I lose my temper." Sirius said firmly no sign of mischief in his eyes as he gazed at his daughter. "If you think you're fighting with us you are surely mistaken. I may have let you at Helms Deep but this is different not only are you still recovering from what Sauron did to you but you're a bit further along now, but this battle will be ten times worse and you're not joining us do I make myself clear young lady?" Sirius asked seriously his eyebrow raised. Evelina nodded her head solemnly Sirius stared at her for a few more minutes assessing her but finally climbed on to his own horse when he deemed she wouldn't join them. "I just don't want to lose you pup." Sirius said softly as he rode over to where Legolas and Haldir stood with Boromir. "I'm sorry dad." Evelina whispered so quiet no one heard her.
"We're riding aren't we?" Neville and Luna asked as they rode up on either side of her having overheard their conversation. "Of course." Evelina said as they rode out of Rohan.

"Make way for the King, Princes' and Princess." A soldier shouted as they rode into the camp. "My Lords and Ladies." Another soldier bowed as they past, Théoden waved while the rest nodded at the soldier, except for Teddy who copied his great-grandfather's actions to the others amusement. "Grimbold, how many?" Théoden asked his trusted soldier.
