A scar over my face



The captain talked to Bulliwyf "Take Roy and Herger and have a look around. If you find something come back to inform. Try not to fight, just come".

I was walking... thinking about Anadryt´s letter telling me he had to move to the South that morning. I was distracted like a silly.. I was so worried... that I was not concentrated when Herger pushed me and throw my shield away. Then him and Buliwyf started to run to leave me behind. I shaked my head angry and I went to take my shield to the ground.

    Herger kept running and he put his feet in a hole and broke it Bulliwyf stopped to help him. "worth it... idiot!" I thought.

In that moment, I raised my head and I couldn't believe it... Five orcs listened to them. They had got them in their back and they didn´t see them.

I started running towards them forgetting my legs had got a limit  With my mace and shield strongly taken I screamed with all my being "BEHIND YOU!!!". Bulliwyf looked at me surprised for listening my voice. But the orcs were too close to them, I jumped for over my comrades and i put my shield to block the attack of the first orc giving Bulliwyf enough time to take his sword out and join me. "Leave Herger between you and me!! back against back!!" I ordered as they were trying to surround us.

He didn't say anything, he just did what I said giving a mighty hit over the head of one of them, crashing it. When the orcs saw this, the rest tried to attack me and avoided him. One of them got to hurt my face but Buliwyf attacked that one that seemed the best skilled. Good  enough for me to kill the rest with serious difficulties, throwing hits of my mace and shield. Finally we got it with Herger´s help from the ground.

I was trying to breath normally again as i put a branch over the feet of Herger and I tied it for him not to move it.

Herger was looking a me in silence, and suddenly I listened Bullliwyf  "I knew it!". He was staring at me with the same gaze that he always used to demonstrate that despite I saved their lifes, i was nothing for him. "good for you..." I replied worried. I looked at him with a challenging gaze "and what are you going to do about it?" He smirked an answered "what I should!".

"Fine... report me... or you can shut up and taking your big body, your strength, your charism, and saving us as the leader I know you are, the one I would follow... or the last choice... you can kill us as the idiot you are being". Herger chuckled as he listened to me calling him idiot but he remained silence.  

Buliwyf looked at me up and down trying to see under my armour and making me blush with his gaze. "And what do you know about leaders, lady? who are you? Cause obviously you are not Roy..." I looked proud at him and i said "My name is Rhianonn of Thornhope, daugter of Gohen, captain of infantry of Gondor, and I was trainned by the sergeant of infantry klauss, the gondorian called by the Golden Host".

Herger and him raised an eyebrow "What the...??"  They looked at me with an amused gaze trying not to demonstrate they were impressed for my introduction. He nodded more calmed down and kept saying " Tell your brother you are safe with us". 

"husband" I smiled when he started to laugh "Anadryt is your husband??! He shaked his head and he added looking roguishly at me "Pity!! Tell your... husband! you are safe with me!".
