"Do you see anything?" You call loudly.
"Not yet." Legolas returns, his voice echoing.
You search the ground, kicking up the dead leaves with your foot. You take a few more steps, then slide your foot in an arc across the ground. Your foot stops and you smile. You bend and pick up your arrow. "I found it!" You yell, as something in the trees fall down. You whirl around and see an Orc. "Legolas!" You yell, desperately. The Orc screeches and comes charging at you. You dodge him and roll on to the ground, quickly recovering to your feet.
"No weapons. Great." You breathe, searching for something that could help you. You glance at the arrow in your hand and shrug. "I guess this'll have to do." You whisper.
The Orc yells and advances on you. You try to stick the arrow in his neck but he cuts it in half with his axe.
He shoves you to the ground and you crawl backwards, trying to escape. "Legolas! Help me!" You scream. The Orc leans over you and you kick him. He grabs your leg and twists it, making you cry out in pain.
He kneels on your chest, crushing you. He places the axe against your neck and you close your eyes.
You hear the whiz of an arrow and you open your eyes, the Orc falling off of you, onto the ground, dead.
You take in a huge breath, eyes widening. "Y/N!" Legolas calls, running over to you. He grabs your hands and gently pulls you to your feet, your face six inches from his. "Are you alright?" He asks, looking at you worriedly.
You stare at him, suddenly realizing how much you love and admire this Elf. "I, uh, yeah. Yeah. I'm alright." You say, adverting your eyes from his.
"Sorry I couldn't get here sooner. I was trying to find which direction you were in." He explains, frowning.
You nod. "You're sure you're alright?" He asks, just to be sure.
You nod again and finally meet his eyes. "Yes, I'm alright, Legolas. Thank you." You say, softly.
