Estelwen (Alastegiel) POV

On my way down the cliff, I hit my arm really hard. I try not to pay attention to it. Soon I hit the water and I struggle to stay above the water, but the current keeps pulling me under.

Finally, I make it to land. I lay there for a minute before getting up. I turn to see Aragorn on the ground. He must of passes out. A horse comes and nudges Aragorn's head. I walk over to Aragorn and kneel down beside him.

“Aragorn." I softly say to him.

“Arwen?" He asks.

“No it's Alastegiel." I say. He opens his eyes and looks at me then looks at the horse.

“Brego." He says, that must be the horses name.

“We have to get to Helm's Deep. I will help you get on to the horse. I say. Brego kneels down so that makes it easier for me to get Aragorn on the horse. Brego stands up and I get on in front of Aragorn so he can hold on to me. Once he does we get going.

When we get to the top of a hill, we see thousands of Uruk-hai. There must be at least 10,000. They are heading for Helm's Deep. We have to get their quickly to warn them. Soon we see Helm's Deep, we are almost there.

Soon we make it to the gate and are let in. I dismount Brego and help Aragorn off. “Are you alright Aragorn?" I ask him. He just nods his head.

I hear Gimli's voice, “Where is he? Where is he? Get out of the way! I'm going to kill him! You are the luckiest, the canniest, and th most reckless man I ever knew. Bless you laddie." Gimli gives him a hug.

Then Gimli turns to me and gives me a hug and says, “Never do that again lassie, you scared me to death the way you jumped off that cliff."'

Aragorn turns to look at me and raises an eyebrow. “I am so very sorry, Gimli. But I had to." I apologise.

“Gimli, where is the King?" Aragorn asks him. Gimli nods his head in the direction the King is.

As we walk there, we run into Legolas. “Le abdollen. (Your late) You look terrible." He says to Aragorn. Aragorn smiles and gives a small laugh. Legolas holds out his hand and puts something in Aragorn's hand. The evenstar necklace.

“Hannon le. (Thank you)" Aragorn says while looking at the necklace. Legolas looks at me then turns away.

“A great host you say?" King Thèoden says when we tell him of what we saw.

“All of Isenguard is emptied." Aragorn informs him.

“How many?" King Thèoden asks.

“Ten thousand strong at least." Aragorn answers.

“Ten thousand?" King Thèoden says in disbelief.

“It is an army bred for a single purpose: To destroy the world of Men." Aragorn says.

“They will be here by nightfall." I add.

“Let them come!" king Thèoden proclaims.
