*Shrugs* I don't know. But it's highly unlikely that only one orc did all this to Bree, right? There are probably more out there. But Imrel is taking care of them so don't worry ;D. *Turns to the orc* I know you can understand me. Who sent you?

But Imrel is taking care of them so don't worry ;D. (She is?! )
*Imrel sat hopelessly on th remains of a brick wall, now at the end of the street Melian vanished from. There is no trace of her, and the road is devoid of Orcs. It seems to be devoid of any living thing, except... *Looks up sharply, then jumps off the wall and wheels around. A small chestnut mare is cantering towards her, carrying a fiery haired girl.* Song?Imrel! *Swings herself off Olne, who has slowed to a walk, and practically catapults herself at Firebird.* You have to come, quickly, it's Melody, an Orc has got her, he was going through the woods and-*Holding up her hands.* Hang on now. An Orc has Mel?*Nods feverently.* I thought I should get you, to help-And Papa?He's safe, he's in the forest, he's hidden.Right. One moment, I should get Rudi.Olne can hold us both. *Begins to remount.*Very well. *Gives Sarla a foot-up, then hops up behind her.* Let's go- I hope you remember the way. *Olne takes off at a gallop.*

"You certainly have a point," Eowyn adds. "There must be more around. A whole legion if I'm correct, which I hope I'm not!"
The orc mumbles something uncomprehensive and Eowyn wonders whether to give it a good kick or not.
"Can't they speak proper Westron?" she asks Rhia.

Well enough a few hours ago...* Draws her knife* Fine. It's your choice. Cooperate or get a lesson in interrogation Sauron could learn from....
ooc: it's your story, basically...although I made the orc up, maybe you can make him tell whatever fits in ;D

*Meanwhile, in Chetwood, Olne is galloping swiftly through the trees. While Sarla keeps her eyes on the road, so to speak, and steers the horse, Imrel strains her vision into the surrounding depths for any sign of Mel or her captor. Cries out suddenly.* Wait! *Sarla pulls back on Olne's reins and Imrel leaps off, landing in a crouched position on the ground.* Keep very quiet. *Lowers her own voice. The sisters wait in silence for several moments, then hear what Im had exected. A faint rustling up ahead, as two beings, one obviously resisting tramble through the forest. *Stands up carefully and mutters in Sar's ear.* Take Olne back to father, and stay there. There's less change the Orc will notice if there's only on of us. *Holds up her hand sharply as Sarla starts to protest.* You'd be of little help, Sar, you're unarmed. *Sarla reluctantly turns Olne back, and rides off quietly to where Corrin is hidden. Imrel slinks on through the greenery towards Mel and the Orc, sliding her bow from her belt as she does so.*

*The Orc looks as if he may say something more, but he cuts off suddenly, gasping in pain. His grip on Melian loosens and he falls to the ground, nearly squashing her, an arrow protruding from his lower back. *Imrel lowers her bow and starts to make her way towards Melian, but stops dead and raises the bow again. Fumbles to fit an arrow to it, then lets it fly right past Mel, into the stomach of another Orc. *Im's face pales in panic as other Orcs, about seven, start to emerage from the trees. Three go for Melody, while four come to get rid of Imrel. Desperately, Firebird drops her bow and draws her sword, running to the Sea Elf. Has to dart forward quickly to halt one brute with a length of rope, turn to block a swing from another's sword, dodge a loose arrow...* Mel- run!

After hearing that his master may found out about the failure, the orc wastes no time in trying to set things right; but in a rather savage manner. He begins kicking and screaming and Eowyn has no choice but to tear a rag from her already ruined clothes and approaches the orc.
The orc comes closer to Eowyn and then jumps on her, pulling her to the ground of leaves beneath. Eowyn and the orc are now wrestling on the floor, the orc trying to bite while Eowyn is trying to tie his mouth shut. The orc and the shield maiden had already exchanged quite a few kicks on the shins and knees already, though Eowyn knew that she should better hurry before they drew the attention of other orcs...

Well, I think it's kinda hard to run right- *duck* now, but- *dodge* if we get clear of- *jab* this lot, we can *block* return to the outskirts. *Knocks out an Orc with the dull of her blade.* Do you know why you were kidnapped? *Continues fighting.*

*There is a brief pause in the assult as the last one falls unconscious.* We'd better run for it, now. If any moer come we could be overpowered. Come on. *Turns on her heel and heads back through the forest, glancing behind her to check that Mel is following.*

*Back in the camp: Pushes the orc back against the tree. * Well, your choice. Now how about a little conversation while you're still able to talk? Who sent you and how many of you are out there? *The orc snarls and hisses then seems to have decided that his best chances are in cooperating for a while* We arre many! The great white wizzzard ssent uss to spread terror! Saruman! We should have known.....*Steps closer* So Saruman doesn't want to waste his precious Uruk-Hai on a raiding mission....Maybe because he needs them elsewhere? Is this just to distract us from something else?
