The Warror King
 

THIS IS A PRIVATE THREAD

ALL TRESPASSERS WILL BE SMITED!!!

Once apon a time in land of faires and magic, there was a beautiful kingdom that stood enormous against a mountan surrounded by a forrest. Within the tall city walls that strech as far as the eye can see, there was a castle for the King of Warrors, King Tinuviel and his daughter the warror princess Gilrean, who was the fairest ladie in the land.

The castle may have been for the king and his family, but the real honor and royalty lays within the hart of this legendary city, the arena. King Tinuviel holds a tourenament once every 200 years. He welcomes any warriors from any land brave enough to compete the contest. The winner shall be granted any request from the King of Warrors.

The King is fair and good to the people who share his land and therfore the kingdom of Avalon thrives because of it. The people love to watch and compete in the contests that happen all the time. But many wait their whole lives to witness the Warror King's Contest and many train their whole lives to compete. The Kingdom of Avalon is composed of Human, Dwarf and Elven races of different kinds and different classes. Barbarions, knights, wizards and other towns folk.

One fine day with the Warrior King's Contest, an unusal Elf enters the Kingdom across the gigantic draw bridge and through the enormous gates. He rode atop a proud brown steed with a white stripe that along his head and a white mane. The elf wore a proud suit of armor with a blue and white cape that floted and blew in the mid-afternoon breze. This elven knight had blood red hair which nobody in the kingdom had ever seen before. The elf's name was Sir Finrod Ar-Feiniel, a general of the eastern armys far far away.

This is where the story begins....

The Warrior King's Daughter
 

Gilrean was used to being locked up in her father's chamber because he was overprotected of her. Her mother would secretly allow her to roam the city and talk with the villagers.As she disguised herself,covering her long dark hair with a long robe that you can only but see her eyes, she wished that someone worthy enough of challenging her father's warriors and prevailing would take her in their arms and run away, but she somehow doubted that her dream would ever come true.Gilrean talked with her friends for a while until she spotted her father coming up the road, she ducked underneath the carriages and prayed that he didn't see her.Not only did she spot her father , but she saw a redheaded,handsome,and brave looking elf on a beautiful horse that is scarce to find in her city.She felt different about this elf than the other males she has met, something about him caught her eye and she felt herself falling for him.He approached her father and they talked for a long time and finally she saw him walk away with her father.She didn't know if she heard right but she could've sworn she heard her father say"Let me know when you're ready to battle my warriors....I guarentee you that I won't lose."Gilrean hoped that she was mistaken because that certain feeling he gave her made her feel somewhat attached to him as if someone placed a love spell on her.She had to find out more about him before it was too late, before her father crushed him along with his army,but maybe it would be different this time,maybe Sir Finrod Ar- Feiniel could defeat her father and she can marry him and live happily ever after, but stories don't always have good endings.

Finrod talked to the king on while on horse back, he could tell by the look in the king's eyes that the king had much hatred towards him. "Let me know when you're ready to battle my warriors....I guarentee you that I won't lose." the king says. Finrod had not really been paying any attention to the king's nonsenseical ramblings until he starts braging about his warriors. Finrod looked him dead in the eyes, which is an insult to the king, and says "Tommrow, first round of the tournament. You give me one of your best warriors...and after I send him to Valhalla...give me another...and another...and another. I will win your tournament king Tinuviel."

The king glares at Finrod. "Very well, you shall have my finiest warriors! But for your inculince you shall fight to the death in every round of the tournament! If you surrender at any point during a fight, you shall forever become my slave. Good day General!" the king says and then rides off. "Well it was very nice meeting you your highness..." Finrod says and then continues on his way.

As Finrod trots down the street on his horse, he sees young women on both sides of it. The women blush, wave and giggle at the hansome knight. Finrod waves back and blows a kiss to a few of them, one of the women faints. He smiles and chuckles as he rides on. A little human girl comes running up along side his horse. "Do you come to fight in the tournament, sir knight?" the little girl asks. "Why yes I do." Finrod replys. "My father tells me that your a child of the gods, sir knight." the little girl says. Finrod stops and dismounts his horse. "Just one of them." he says to her with a smile and then gives her a wink. Finrod looks around and then back at the little girl. "Could you tell me where I could find suitable loggings for my stay here?" he asks. "All the inns are full with fighters that have come for the tournament, sir knight. But my father would most certanly be honored to provide you with a room in our house." the little girl says. Finrod kneels down and pulls a gold coin out of her ear. "How did you do that, sir knight?" the little girl asks with excitment. "Elven magic." Finrod says with a smile as he puts the coin in her hand. "Come little one, show me the way to your father's house." Finrod says and then stands back up.

The Warrior King
 

Gilrean was roaming the village looking for Finrod because she lost track of him from the conversation.She is crossing the street when suddenly a carriage almost runs her over,Finrod had saved her life but too bad she didn't know since she fainted shortly after Finrod carried her back home.Gilrean awoke with a deadly headache and decided that she should get something to eat ,when she passes one of the guestrooms and sees none other than Finrod himself.She quickly runs to her room to find a more sexier outfit to impress Sir Finrod.She passes the room again and he looks up."Hello,stranger,I suppose your taking a room in my castle,huh?",Finrod nods with his mouth open for she is wearing a see through gown and strap laced shoes and her hair swings gracefully on her hips.She so desperately wanted to sit with him and flirt but her father forbid her to even think about one of his opponents like that.Gilrean walks up to him and sits ever so close(maybe her father doesn't have to find out) to his knee and starts fiddling with her hair."So , you challenge my father to a tournament,let's hope that you make it out alive so we can get to know each other a little more better,don't you agree?"Without waiting for an answer she steps out the room walking slowly,steadily,and sexy. She smiles to herself and adds"Thank you for saving my life."

As Finrod followed the little girl through the street, he could here the sounds of a runaway carage and it's horses tearing though down the street. Finrod looks back over his shoulder at the street and sees a peasent women standing in the middle of the street frozen in shock with the carage less then ten feet away and closing fast.

Finrod immedatly stoped what he was doing and bravely sprinted out into the street, risking life and limb to save this peasent women. But that was the sworn oath that he took when he became a knight of the old code. Finrod makes it to the peasent women at the very last secondand throws her to the ground, at the same time he falls with her and lays on top of her, using his body like a shield as he covers her. The horses run over them, kicking and steping on Finrod's back and legs a few times, but he was wearing armor so it did not hurt that bad. Finally the carage goes by overhead and leaves them in a large dust cloud.

Everone on the street watches in awe as the dust cloud starts to clear. They were certan that the two had gotten trampled to death. There gasps of astonishment followed by claping and cheering from the crowd of people as Finrod started to move to get off of the peasent women. Finrod moves to the side of the women and takes a knee. He slowly turns her over and is cought completely off guard when he saw her face. The peasent women was the most beautiful elven women (or women of any species for that matter) that he had ever layed eyes apon all of his 162 years of life...and he has been to great many places as he was an adventurer.

Finrod gentley brushes a strand of hair away from her face with his finger. Her face was so peaceful having fanted problaby as soon as he through her to the ground. "I wish I knew you name!" he says to himself. One of the women in the crowd gasps. "Thats Princess Tinuviel!" she crys out. "Princess who?" Finrod asks. "Princess Tinuviel! King Tinuviel's only daughter!" the lady says. Finrod looks back down at her and rolls his eyes. "Be careful what you wish for." Finrod says to himself.

Finrod picks her up and carrys her in his arms all the way to the castle. When he gets there some of the servents take Princess Tinuviel from Finrod and go to get her cleaned up. One of the head servents, a blond haired man with a lot of stubble on his face (kinda lookes like Keven Bacon) approches Finrod. "The royal family is indeed in your debt good sir knight...Do you have a place to stay?" he says. "No...All the inns are full." Finrod says. "Well, you do now. Come, I'll show you to your room." He says. Finrod follows the man to a nice large guest room and then goes inside. "I really don't think that I should be staying here, with King Tinuviel angery at me and all." Finrod says. "No, you must stay, its a custom. If someone is to save the life of a member of the royal family, then that person is in the king's debt and may stay for as long as he likes. Of couses, nobody has ever had to save a member of the royal family before." he says and then leaves.

Some time later, Finrod had brought up his belongings from his horse, which was now in the castle stable free of charge, and begins to unpack. Finrod sits on the foot of the bed and takes his upperbody armor and under garment off. As he sits topless on the bed, he had forgoten to close the door, Princess Tinuviel comes in wearing a gown that...really...shows off the curves of her body. Finrod sits their speechless. And as she sits down besides him on the bed, all Finrod could think was that it was a good thing he still had on his armord pants.

When she leaves, Finrod shuts the door and shuts the door. He undresses and takes a bath. He couldn't shake the image out of his head. He then gets dressed up in his fineist formal wear. Finrod puts on a royal blue tunic and matching pants with his knee high brown leather boots that he usualy wears over his armor boots. Finrod then heads down to the banquit for the tournament competetors and nobilty. He was sure to see Princess Tinuviel there. He walks in and takes a seat at one of the long tables along the walls.

The Warrior King
 

Princess Tinuviel was amazed at how Finrod held himself for he was the only man who resisted to be aroused by her beauty.She still wanted him!She sat on the table and gave him long meaningful stares while she thought he wasn't looking.Her father couldn't join the dinner because he had a crucial Warrior meeting to attend and noone sat at the table except herself and Finrod.She ordered the servants to a day off so that she can spend the night with him in an empty house:)Gilrean walked up to him in the still very appealing dress and told him to call her Gilrean and she went upstairs to make sure she didn't forget any servants.

Finrod looked around at the people that would be competing in the tournament. Out of the corner of his eye something catches his attetion. He turns his head to see the Princess sitting at his table infront of him, still in that extreamly seductive dress that really showed off her wonderful cleavage and perfect curves. Thoughts and feelings of lust run throught Finrod's head. She got up and walked around the table over to him "Call me Gilrean." she says and then walks off talking to the servants. Finrod could not help but stair at the beautiful princess and think about how lucky he was to have a table in front of him. The servents then begin to move the feast for the competertors to an alternete dinning hall.

One of the servents walks over to him. "Buy special order of Princess Tinuviel, the banquit has been moved to another dinniing hall." the servant says. Finrod starts to stand up, but the servent stops him. "Buy special order of Princess Tinuviel, the banquit has been moved to another dinniing hall so that this one may be used for a private dinner for you and her." the servent says. Finrod swollews hard, he couldn't believe that the beautiful princess had taken a likeing to him...a humble knight of the old code, over all the welthy princes that she had have to turn down in the past.

The Warrior King
 

Gilrean dismissed the servants and she returned back to the dining room.Finrod was sitting comfortably with a smirk on his face, she couldn't help but giggle at him.Finrod was most definitely the most handsome in the land.She stood up and pushed her chair next to him and started talking about her father and......herself."My father is very protective of me, if he ever found out I welcomed you here with open arms, he'd kill me"Finrod noticed that Gilrean was a bit nervous talking about her consequences for her lustful behavior.Then Finrod talked about himself and she heard everything but she was really glaring at his eyes,his hair, and his body.She just couldn't control herself and she started talking with him, laying her hand on his leg and purposely bumping into it now and then.

As Finrod sat at the table talking with Gilrean, such a beautiful name he thought, he talked about his many adventers of battling mosters and men alike. He listened to her tell of her dreadful father and he was very impressed by her braveray in following her heart dispite that she may lose her life for doing so. Finrod knew that she had fallen in love with him and somewhere during the couse of the night that they spent talking while looking deep into each other's eyes, he felt her become a part of him. Suddenly Finrod did not care about anything except Gilrean. She had stolen his heart while he wasn't looking.

Finrod could feel Gilrean's warm hand on his inner thigh. He tried hard to think of a plan to save her life with the conflicting arrousing feelings of lust. He places his hand on top of her other hand which was resting on the table infront of her. He looks deep into her eyes as brings his other hand up and creasted her cheek. Finrod brings his face in close to Gilrean's, still traped in her gaze. "I can save you. I know how to save you and I'm going to do it." he says to her and then slowly closes his eyes as he leans in to kiss her.

Just then a voice shouts out. "WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!!" Finrod's eyes snap open and he looks his left across the table. There stood the head of the royal guards, in full armor. "Answer me you savile filth!" He shouts at Finrod and then knocks his wine cup into his lap. "And you, are you awere of what your father will do when he finds out!" He shouts at Gilrean. Just the Finrod stands up and brushes some of the wine off of his royal blue tunic and walks strait up to the guard. "How DARE you interup the two of us with your vulgerness!" Finrod shouts, still brushing his tunic free of red wine which now covered the front of it.

"Oh, then a dual it will be! draw your weapon!" the guard says as he draws his sword. Finrod looks at him for a moment and then walked angerly back to the table. He grabs the knife he was eatting his dinner with and then steps away from the table so that Gilrean would be safe from harm. The guard begins to laugh almost to the point that he couldn't speak. "I...I..Challenge you to a dual and you...you defend yourself with a butter knife!" he says to Finrod, still laughing.

Finrod looks down at the knife that he held in his hand then back up at the laughing guard with a weapon drawn. "Actully tis a dinner knife, but your so unlearned that you know not the difference!" Finrod says in a calm and calculating tone to the guard. The guard immediatly stops laughing bares his clenched teeth.

The guard rushes at Finrod with his sword raised across his body ready to swing outwards and cut Finrod down where he stood. The guard swings blindly out of anger with one hand. Finrod quickly ducks and then stands back up, block the guard's sword arm to the outside with his free arm, completely opening the guard's body up. In the same fluid motion, Finrod swings his arm holding the small knife at full extention. The knife goes into the front of the guard's throte just above where his neck armor stoped.

The drops his sword and falls to his knees infront of Finrod, making the most alfful gragled death crys. The guard looks up at Finrod from his knees. Finrod reaches down and pulls the knife out of the guard's neck. The guard makes one last gargled cry as he falls foward onto his face, spilling his blood out on the floor. Finrod tosses the bloody knife onto his plate and then helps Gilrean up out of her chair. "I'm sorry that that had to ruin our evening, but we should leave these walls for tonight." Finrod says to her.

The Warrior King's Daughter
 

Finrod led Gilrean to a hotel and Finrod walked up to the man and asked for a room and the man said that there were none available.Then Gilrean excused herself from Finrod and approached the clerk and said"If you haven't noticed that I'm Princess Tinuviel yet then I'm informing you now,behind you are a couple of unavailable room keys and if you could be so kind as to give me one, my friend and I will be on our way or you can refuse and I can make your life a lot harder, the choice is up to you."The clerk handed her the keys without a word.Gilrean went back to Finrod and whispered "It's all taken care of."Finrod had a confused look on his face and she said with a smile"I have my ways."

They went up to the room and Finrod sat on the bed and just stared at how beautiful Gilrean was.She sensed his glare and returned the favor by staring back.She decided that she was going to make the first move so she picked up the phone and ordered two bottles of rum.When the clerk came up to deliver the order she put them in the freezer,took a shower,and put a long and silky blue dress on.As she was taking the rum out of the freezer, she took a glance at him and winked.Gilrean put the bottles on the table and sat real close to him.He started talking about his mission,she started talking about her fantasies.He talked about his hometown and that's when she leaned in and kissed him.If there wasn't a knock on the door then they couldv'e gone on forever.

Finrod layed on the bed, his heart racing and his mind going a million miles a minute...He was in love! Gilrean was taking a bath in the other room so Finrod helped himself to some of the complementy rum, curtsies of the inn keeper. He takes a bottle out of the bucket full of ice and pours it into mugs. On for him and one for her, if she wanted it. Finrod needed it to slow down the reactions he was having around Gilrean. Finrod could feel the alchole moving through his veins, giving him a warm sensation moving through his body.

Gilrean comes out of the next room having finished her bath. She looked unbeleivable. She walks over to the bed and crawls up onto it up to Finrod. She leans in and beings a passionet kiss with him which he felt would go on forever as he was lost in it. Returing the kisses as he gentely wraps his arms around her. Just then there is a knock at the door. Finrod's eye snap open and then grow narrow with frustraion, he brakes off the kiss and scoots of the bed.

He walks over to the door and opens it. There stood the Head Servent form the castle. "Ah, Sir Finrod, I was told that I might find you here. As we spoke earler, I will be doing your introduction on the morrows fight. I needed to know what you would like me to say?" the head servent asks. Finrod leans in and says a few things to him. The head servent nods his head and leaves. Finrod closes the door once again and locks it. He returns to the bed and flops down next to Gilrean.

The Warrior King
 

Gilrean was going to ask who was at the door but Finrod didn't allow her to finish,he continued what she had started before the interruption.After a couple of hours, she stopped and was exhausted from the trip here and wanted to sleep.The Inn keeper only gave them a room instead of two rooms so Finrod took a spot on the bed and just watched as Gilrean drifted off to a deep sleep.

When Gilrean woke up she found him sleeping next to her,her hands in his.She carefully removed her hands from his grasp and made breakfast. Finrod awoke shortly after she had made breakfast and they discussed what would be their next move.Gilrean knew that her father would send every soldier he had to look for her in every inch of the village.Still, Gilrean wanted to stay with Finrod and never wanted to go back for any reason at all.She admitted to herself that she was in love.

Finrod watched Gilrean fall asleep, with one arm across his chest and their fingers interlocked. He wanted to just stay awake so he could watch her breath so peacefully, but he eventuly fell asleep. Finrod awoke to the wounderful smells of Gilrean cooking breakfast. He sits up and throws his legs out over the side of the bed, the sheets still in his lap. He scratches his head for a second and then begins to get dressed.

After he finished getting dressed and walks over to Gilrean at the table and gives her a nice long kiss before he sits down next to her and begins to eat, he couldn't take his eyes off of her while he was eatting. He talked about how they would have to go back, they would have to go to arena. Finrod told her that it was the only way to save her life. He gave her a wink of trust letting her know that he had a solid plan.

There was a knock on the door. When Finrod got up to open it, it was the head servent with all of his armor and his sword. "Sir Ar-Feinial, you are overdue at the arena for your fight. Let us make haist." he says. Finrod takes the equipment from him and puts it on over his formal wear. He takes his knee high brown boots off and puts them on again over the armor feet.

Finrod stops in front of Gilrean on his way out. "Your father's guards are going to looking for you to take you to the arena so that you may sit next to him. We must not let them catch us together, that way we will have until tonight before they discover what has happened between us. Your head servent and I will take the long way to get to the arena and you must take the short way." Finrod says to her and then gives her one last kiss be for he headed out the door.

Finrod pays the inn keeper for the room and then heads to the arena with the head servent. When they get there Finrod sees his a oppentent. His oppentent was a 7" 320lbs solid muscle human barbarian with a large battle axe. The king who was sitting in the royal booth at ringside shouts at Finrod. "Sir Ar-Feinial, meet Adon, one of my mightiest warrors. Adon has never been defeted, you have my simpithys." the king says and then begins to laugh. Finrod looks over at the king. "You may keep you simpithys your highness, for today he will be." Finrod shouts back with a smile. Finrod then looks over a Gilrean who been sitting next to her father since before he had arrived.

The introdutions start, begining with Adon. "My lord, my ladies. Allow me to introduce a man that needs no introdution. He is the beast from the nothern tribes, he is one of you favorites right from this very arena. Please welcome the undefeted Aaaaaaaaadonnnnn!" the man shouts to the crowd and the crowd begins to cheer. The head servent then steps out into the middle of the arena. "My lord, my ladies. It it my great pleasure to introduce the greatest hero in the realm. He has defeted countless armys, battled monsters, dragons, and even the dreaded giant spiders of Nordor...He even saved Princess Tinuviel from certan death just the other day! Now, without further adew, I present to you a General of the Eastern Armys, air of the Ar-Feinial dynasty...Finrod Ar-Feinial!" the head servant shouts and the crowd responds by cheering.

The head servent then leaves the fighting area and the battle begins. Finrod draws his sword and walks towards Adon as Adon walks towards him. Finrod pulls out a small bag with two silver coins to pay the boat man on the river sticks so that the fallen warror's sprite could get to Valhalla. Finrod stops short of Adon and tosses the sack of coins on the ground between them. They then begin to fight!

The Warrior King
 

Gilrean had no doubts of Finrod and of course expected him to win but she couldn't help but worry about the major height difference.She sat next to her father without a word,"This should be a good one,eh Gilrean?"says her father."Yes Father, this tournament will be entertaining, indeed,"says Gilrean. Her mother looks at her and winks, then discreetly points toward Finrod.But how can her mother know that she had fallen for him?!Was it that obvious?!She looks toward Finrod and he draws his sword from his belt.Gilrean moved toward her mother,"How did you know, mother?"Her mother replies,"Because you have the same look in your eyes as I did when I met your father, of course he was a different man back then and it's surely obvious he has turned into a monster now!"Gilrean looks at her mother in sympathy,Well she chose to marry him,she thought in her head.Gilrean looks at Finrod and at the exact same time , he looks up and winks at her,she blew back a kiss.She wished that Finrod didn't have to fight in order for them to be together but if he was risking his life out there in order for them to be together then it must be something stronger than glory.....LOVE.

Finrod couldn't help but take his eyes off his oppenint for just a second as he see Gilrean blow him a kiss, a mistake that he will never make again. Adon sees this mistake and takes advantage of it with a full offencive attack. He swings the big heavy axe high. Finrod sees sun shine off of the axe blade out of the conner of his eye. Finrod immeatly drops down to a knee just in time to prevent the axe from taking his head clean off of his shoulders. The adrenalin was pumping his veins now, like fire.

Finrod with the open shot, thrusts his sword at Adon's belly. Adon brings the axe down a parrys the sword thrust into the ground and holds it there with the axe. He then clobers Finrod in the face with his big right hand. Finrod's head bounced to the side with the inpact of the punch. The left side of Finrod's mouth was now bleeding. Adon gives a quick laugh but is then cought by surprize when Finrod quickly brings his head back around and head-butts him right between the eyes. Adon cluches his face for a quick moment and he stumbles backwards, he lifted the axe up with his left hand which freed Findron's sword.

Finrod quickly snaps back up and comes down with an over head strike. Adon blockes it with his axe...and so it begins, a relitively long strike-dodge-block-and parry battle with both of the men holding their weapons with both hands, the accasional knee, punch and kick also happend during the battle.

This battle went on back and forth for sevral minutes until Adon knocks Finrod slightly of balance and then comes in with a poweful over head chop. Finrod quickly brings his sword up to block it. With the axe blocked, Adon tried to use his height and strength advantage. He continues to push down with the axe against the sword until the blade of the axe begins to get close to Finrod's face. Finrod saw that with Adons arms slightly raised, his left flank has voulerable, the first mistake Adon had made the entire fight.

Finrod steps through under Adon's left arm with his left foot. Finrod in the same fluid motion follows his left foot passed Adon's left side, turning inwards as he does. Adon's axe hits the ground as he unexpectedly follows through with his downward chop. Finrod, as he was steping through passed Adon, he brang his sword across Adon's left side, cutting deep into it with the saw-like back edge of the sword. Adon crys out in pain as blood shoots out of his side. Finrod now behind the baddly wounded Adon, impales him from the back. The sword plunges out of the middle of Adon's chest!

Finrod hold the sword in Adon's chest for a moment as he felt to his knees with blood pouring out of his mouth and then Finrod puts his foot on Adon's back and yanks the sword out, pushing him over onto his face as he does. The crowd goes wild with cheers as Finrod emurges victorius. Finrod sheths his sword in his holster across his back and begins to walk towards the king.

The left side of Finrod's mouth had a small trail of blood with snaked down the side of his chin which he wipes away with the back of his hand. Finrod's hair was wet from sweat and clumped to parts of his face. Finrod finnally makes it over to the king, which everyone thought he was doing. But instead, Finrod walked right up to Gilrean. He slightly leaned over the railling and crested her cheeks with both hands. In the same fluid motion, Finrod closed his eyes and brought his lips to her's, giving Gilrean a kiss that took her breath away. Gilrean continued the kiss for a moment. The crowd gasped in horror and the king glared with a look of pure rage in his eyes.

As Finrod slowly broke the kiss and opend his eyes, the king stood up and in a fit of rage, he decided to stike down his only child. He draws the sword of the guard next to him and begins to swing at Gilrean. Finrod imeadatly drew his sword and blocked the kings swing in one quick motion. Finrod's bloody blade and the king's blade stood only inches from Gilrean. The king looked over at Finrod as he blocked him. Finrod speaks up loud enough for everyone to hear. "King Tinuviel! You can not harm this women in anyway! For I state my prize here and now! If I win your tournament, then I will clam your dautgher's hand in marrage! As I havew clamed such a prize in adavance, it must therefore be available to me when I win! So I state again, you may not hurt her in anyway!." Finrod says for the whole crowd to hear.

Gilrean was now safe from any harm, so long as he continued to win. The king face exploded with anger. "My daugter, marry a High Elf!" he says and then turns his blade sideways and swings at Finrod. Finrod ducks and the king's guards restained the king to prevent him from dishororing himself out of rage. Finrod stands back up and sheaths his sword. He looks back over at Gilrean and winks at her. "I told you I could save your life." he says. Finrod then turns around and walks back into the middle of the arena to the fallen Adon. He kicks the small bag of two silver coins over to the body and then leaves the arena.

As Finrod was leaving the arena, Gilrean runs up and hugs him with a kiss. She asks him why they couldn't just run away and start there lives together, why he had to keep fighting. She then turns and runs a away with tears in her eyes. The king then aproches him, laughing about the battle he just had with Adon. Finrod asks him if he thought there was something funny about the death of a good warror. The king continued to carry on laughing. He then began talking about the next warror the king had chosen to fight Finrod, and he said that the match was next. This would be Finrod's last fight for the day. The king then returns to his seat and awates Finrod.

Finrod walks out to see his oppenent, full of energy and very cocky. The fighter was a high class count and a master of the sword. Finrod walks out and draws his weapon. He then walks past the the fighter over towards Gilrean. "You wanted to know why we can not run away and leave all this behind. Honor! It is the same reason why your father can not hurt you or throw me into the dungon....Is that not right king?" Finrod says. The king nods his head with a smile. "That is so." the king says.

Just then, Finrod's oppenent trys to attack him from behind. The fighter had no honor. Just when it seemed as though Gilrean would see the love of her life be killed right in front of her. Finrod quickly brings, his sword over his head and behind his back, blocking the swing. Finrod then spins around to face his oppenent and fight him, right in front of the king. The fighter trys for a thrust, Finrod blocks it with his sword and then uses to push the fighter's sword to the side...turning him around so that his back was to Finrod and pressed up against him. With the same fluid motion, Finrod brings the back side of his sword up to the fighter's throte and pulls it acrossed. Unfotunity, he wasn't watching where they were fighting. The blood from the fighter's throte sprayed out onto Gilrean as she sat watching the battle. Finrod sees this and stands speachless.

The Warrior King
 

Gilrean stood disgusted of all the blood that covered her from head to toe.The audience burst into laughter and Gilrean,embarassed and humiliated, ran to the restroom and took a shower where the warriors were supposed to refresh themselves.She started singing and she heard a voice from behind her. "Just so you know,I didn't laugh at you." She quickly turned around expecting to see Finrod but it was someone she never saw in the village before. "My name is Adam, you don't look so happy."Gilrean looked at him, astonished because she was naked."I'm not decent , I trust you should go back and talk to me when I have decent clothes on."Finrod steps in the doorway and Gilrean gasps.She screams at Adam and hides behind Finrod to cover her body."Who are you?" screams Adam.Then he interrupts and says "Oh, you're the warrior who fought the Great Adon." Gilrean holds on tightly to Finrod's waist, knowing that Finrod wanted to kill him in less than a milisecond. King Tinuviel joins them and says "I believe the party is upstairs,oh Finrod, I guess you met your newest opponent, he may not be huge but he is agile and can sense your next move through his brain,hahahahaha, good luck!" Gilrean rolls her eyes at him and ,still naked, steps in front of Finrod so she's looking at him in the face "Don't listen to him,you're brilliant and don't you ever forget that." Adam looks upset and says " I'll tell you what, not only will we fight for victory but what do you say we fight for the princess as well?"Gilrean's face goes blank and she looks at Finrod,awaiting his answer.

Finrod was extreamly angry, even though he did a good job hiding it. His matchs where done for the day and he just wanted to be alone with the women that he loved more then anything else in the world. However he was always being botherd by the king's newest oppenent for him, each one being more cocky and disresectful then the last. Finrod would have expected such behavor from a barbarian like Adon, but not from noblemen. In fact, out of all his oppenents, Adon was the only one worthy to cross the River Sticks into Valhalla. That is why Finrod didn't leave two silver coins for his last oppenent, because he was not worthy to pay the boatman at the River Sticks, he was dishonorable by trying to attack Finrod from behind. Finrod would certianly take great pleasure in killing this new upstart named Adem...a human name for a human.

Finrod quickly removed his cape from his armor and wraped it around Gilrean who was clinging tightly to him. He held the cape in place as he wraped his arms around Gilrean's wet body. Finrod looked down at Gilrean in his arms and then his eyes shot back up towards Adem when he challenged Finrod for Gilrean's marital rites. Of course this was The King's Tournament, the biggest tournament in this realm and many others. And if Adem won, he could ask the king of anything and the king would have to ablige...Including Gilrean's hand in marage. Also, Finrod had to fight every fight to his own death, by order of the king. So if he lost to Adem, then he wouldn't have to worry about Gilrean being maried to Adem because Finrod would be dead. Finrod looks at Adem, head to toe. "I'ed say your a fool litte boy if you showed up to fight tomorrow. But if you incist on stupidity, then you may as well fight for Gilrean." Finrod says. "Oh, and bring a long wooden box as well." Finrod adds.

By the king telling Finrod what Adem's strength was, he also reveild Adem's weakness. Finrod was the only one who knew however. The king's glocking had actuly given Finrod the edge in the fight. Finrod had already planed out his tacticts for defeating Adem. By exploiting and feeding into Adem's abiltiy to anticapate Finrod's every move, Finrod would make Adem forget that Finrod was even a threat to him! And when that happend, Adem would lose his strength and leave himself open for attack.

The Warrior King
 

Gilrean hated her father. I t seemed to her like the only will to live would be to forever live with Finrod, but she somehow doubted that he was going to win against beasts and monsters that were ten times his size, but she still wanted to have faith in him. Gilrean was curious on why did Adam have to bring a long wooden box, but she suspected it was only safe not to find out. After hearing Adam and Finrod's discussion she ran into one of her servants and ordered him to get her a dress from her wardrobe. Until he came back, she waited and waited in the pathway of the entrance and finally she saw a man running as fast as his legs can carry him. She slipped on the dress and ran to her seat, she needed Finrod to win.The gates open and there stands Adam with a slick smile on his face as if he were up to no good. Then he suddenly glances at her and nothing happens except his smile only gets more wider, Gilrean can feel a vibration run through her body. Finrod steps up too, his face is serious and he just stares at Adam not blinking or gazing his vision somewhere else.

Finrod nods in respect towards Adam. Finrod may have fire in his eyes at very thought of him, but he had class. Finrod then approches Adam as he draws his sword. The battle begins, and just like the king promissed, Adam was always one step ahead of Finrod the entire time. Finrod was forced into a clumbsy defence inwhich Adam didn't land any leathal strikes with his weapon but was able do great amounts of damage with his hands and feet. During this display, Finrod was knocked off his feet many times. Finrod was being made to look like a fool. Finrod eventully let his fatguee show though. He was covered in sweat, dirt and blood. Finrod's hair was soaking wet with sweat and his face was brused and bleeding. Adam was full of energy and was not even trying anymore. He was simply toying with the defeated oppenet. Finrod could barely hold his sword. He trys desprately for one more attack, he swings his sword but Adam ducks it effortlessly and reacts with yet another punch to Finrod's face.

Finrod stumbles and then drops to a knee in defeat! He holds the sword out infront of him with the tip touching the ground. He assumes the postion to die with honor and looks over at Gilrean. Finrod gives her a wink with a cut just above his eye dripping blood as he does. Much to Gilrean's surprize, Finrod still had something left up his sleeve. Nobody else sees the wink that he gave Gilrean before looking back at the ground infront of him. Finrod focuses on the shadow of Adam, who stood behind him. Adam looks over at the king who gives Adam the nod to kill Finrod. Adam takes a few quick steps and then swings his sword at Finrod's neck with all of his might.

Finrod watches his shadow and as Adam swings, Finrod quickly moves out of the way, causeing Adam's blade to hit the ground. At the same time, Finrod stands up with his spin that he used to advoid the attack. When Finrod comes back around with his sword, he chops Adam's head clean off of his shoulders. The crowed is struck by silience and disbleif as Adam's headless body falls to the ground! The one move that Adam didn't see coming was the move that Finrod had in mind all along. Finrod stumbles back and falls to the ground, bloody and exsausted.

As Finrod was fighting,Gilrean was thinking what she would do if he lost, would she go with Adam..."No way!" she thought. She looks over at Finrod and sees him wink at her," He's up to something," she thought. She winked back and awaited his next move. She turned her head for a second, but when she turned back around all she can see was a headless Adam and Finrod smiling."I knew it!", she exclaimed, she knew that he would prevail.She ran to Finrod and hugged him tightly and then she held him close to her and kissed him. "Enough is enough," King Tinuviel screamed, "You may have beaten Adam , but some of the other opponents won't be so easy!" Gilrean rolled her eyes away from her ignorant father," You did great, once you beat the remaining monsters, I'm all yours." Finrod smiled and leaned in for another kiss. The audience gasped, some of the people seeing them together was news. Gilrean took him by the hand and led him off the battlefield.She took him to the lake outside of the castle and she stripped naked and jumped in and he did the same."What's this?!" King Tinuviel yelled,"Shouldn't you be preparing for the next opponent, not splashing around with my naked daughter. And then he just realized what he had said, "Gilrean, go put some clothes on!" Gilrean took her eyes away from him and just stared at Finrod,"No, I'm not going anywhere without him." Well then I guess I'm going to have to MAKE you. Gilrean screamed as she saw her father jump in after her.

The water washes over Finrod as he dove in, ridding his body of blood, sweat and dirt. As he came back up to the surface of the lake, he slicks his wet blood red hair back with his hands so that it is not clumping to his face and coving his eyes. The slicked back hair revieals his elven ears clearly. His face still had the cuts and wounds from his battle with Adam, but they were no longer bleeding. Finrod smiles at Gilrean as she is the first thing that he sees as he surfaces. However, before he could enjoy the moment, he hears the kings voice behind him. "Shouldn't you be prepairing for the next opponent, not around with my naked daughter!?" the king says. "I am prepairing your highness! I'm cleaning my wounds." Finrod replays and then turns to look at him, the water barely coming up to his hips as he stands in it talking to the king. The king shouts at Gilrean to put some clothes on and then jumps in after her. Gilrean screams and then Finrod steps in front of the king, blocking his path. "If your mageisty recalls, Gilrean is to be left alone so long as I continue to advance in the tournament! Speeking of which, you should be watching the battles to choose my next opponent, for if I am not mistaken...you are out of personal warrors." Finrod says to the king in a stern voice. The king sneres at Finrod and then turns around and leaves. Finrod turns back to Gilrean kisses her deeply while holding her closely within a loving embrace.

Gilrean was running to her seat when she heard her father talking to someone,"Yes, the next opponent is a girl......oh no, she's not just any girl....of course she has powers...she can make anyone fall in love with her...yes, she'll definitely beat him." Gilrean gasped,what if Finrod falls in love with her.She intended to run to Finrod and warn him, but one of the guards yelled at her to go top her seat.She watched as the announcement for the new opponent was given."Introducing Skye", a young woman steps onto the court and blows numerous kisses to the crowd.Finrod just looks at her and she looks back to him and blows him a kiss too. With envy, Gilrean stood up, but the same guard pushed her back down.She hoped that the girl has a weakness that Finrod could somehow discover.She apprehensively watched the tournament.
