The figure waited a couple of seconds before deciding to show itself. It sensed the two figures were uneased and nervous but it was no reason for her to let her guard down. Streching the string and arrow farther away from the bow the figure finally took a step forward emerging slowly from the shadow. Its face was covered with the hood of a black cloak, but both, Machia and Fish could tell the figure was female. "Your heartbeat sounds as louds as drums of war. A bit nervous, perhaps?" she told Fish.
Fish and Machia stood standing in their spot knowing that with no weapons their lives were in immediate danger, and they both weren't ready to have their lives ended right there and then.
"I demand ye give us a name!" Machia said.
"Demand? What happened to good manners," the figure said. She moved a little to her left where Fish was standing and started walking around her.
"We be pirates! Thar be no need fer us to use manners," he said.
"Pirates, eh?" the mysterious girl streched the string on her bow to the point it was about to break. "I always though Pirates were people legends and myths were made of. I'd never thought there would be people delusional enough to call themselves pirates," she said.
"I be Fish, this be Machia. Now what be yer name?" Fish demanded.
"There's no reason for me to tell you who I am," she said. "...Just yet," she said after a pause.
"Take them as prisoners," the young woman said. She lowered her bow as six other figures in hooded cloaks emerged from the woods rididng horses that were the darkest color of black Machia and Fish had ever seen. If Black had any color darker than itself. Machia and Fish struggled as they were being gripped by two tall men each. They thought about teleporting away but somehow the men that were holding them down had a supernatural grip on them.
Machia tried to fight back when all of a sudden he stopped.
"Take them to the Ranger's camp," machia overheard the young woman say.
"Wait! Yer a Ranger?" he asked as he tried to raise his head from the ground.
The woman stopped dead on her tracks and with out twisting her body and sholders she looked back at Machia. "You have heard of us?" she asked.
"Yes! We pirates were yer allies at one point when Elindil was yer leader!" Fish said with a sigh of relief.
The woman turned around and walked towards Machia and Fish who were on the ground being held by two Rangers each. She bent down and looked at both of them in the eye then turned to another Ranger who was next to her and coldly told him, "Tie them up and take them to the Ranger's Camp."
With that said she whistled and another black horse came galloping towards her.
"Anais," she said as she patted the horse on it's head. She got up on her horse and motioned for the other Rangers to continue.
