Chapter 4: The Kokiri

I was dumbfounded, the kokiri were being kidnapped? And I hadn't known? "You're from one of the surrounding villages, right?" she asked. "I guess they haven't heard yet... lucky them." She smiled vaguely. "What's your name?" she asked. "U-uh, my name?" I stuttered. "Yeah, your name," said a guy from the crowed. "What're you called? You know, wherever you're from."

I panicked. I hadn't thought of a name. "U-uh, I'm Adlez," I said. "Nice to meet you then, Adlez!" said the girl. "I'm Fala!" I smiled a bit. "Nice to meet you, Fala, and you're right, I'm from a little village, well, if it could be called a village." I explain, making it all up. "It's just me and a few others." She smiles. "That's why they haven't found you yet," she said. "And even if they did, they wouldn't bother."

"Well," I said. "Since we're in the same sticky situation, I'll help you out. I'm known in my 'village' for my escapes! Sometimes I even purposely put myself in these sort of situations, just for the challenge." They all stare. "Okay, if you're willing," said Fala. "We'll try it out." I smiled. "Alright then," I said. "Gather 'round..."

***Later***

"Mister!" called a kokiri. "What is it, migit?" asked Wane, not kindly. "Mister, I need a glass of water. "Are you kidding me?" asked Wane. "Are you kidding me? We only have so much water!" "But sir!" said the kokiri. "I'm so thirsty! I might die, and then you won't meet the limit! He said you needed fifty! If I die you're down to 49!" Wane grumbled a bit but walked over with the water.

Then the plan took action, the bars weren't far enough apart for his hands so he unlocked the door, and all the kokiri, hiding in the shadows, sprang out and tackled him. They all poured out of the cage and grabbed anything available. The pot over the fire, a stick from the fire, ladles, pitchforks, anything that was there was turned into a weapon.

The two men soon found themselves surrounded. I walked towards them, the crowd parting as I strode forward. "So," I said. "We seem so harmless now?"
