Chapter 17

- The Nazgûl

Alex had made it to the top. Using the other arrow she had tied into the rope as a place to stand, Alex had a perfect view of the ropes for the catapults. She notched an arrow and took aim.

——————————————————————————————————

“Sir, the catapults are ready.”

“Fire at will.”

Just then an arrow came sailing into the ground next to Bart’s foot leaving a severed rope on the catapult.

“Find the archer! We cannot lose these catapults.”

Within a two more shots Alex had been spotted.

“Focus all arrows on the archer!”

——————————————————————————————————

Alex began swinging the rope around so they couldn’t hit her. Notching another arrow she fired and took out the first catapult. Three more catapults to go. Each had four ropes that had to be taken out. That left 12 ropes. Alex had 5 arrows left.After firing a few more shots, she was forced to get more arrows. Instead of descending the rope, she simply began catching her foes arrows.

——————————————————————————————————

Bart realized his soldiers own arrows were flying back. ‘Their out of arrows’ he thought.

“Cease fire!”

There was one catapult left. Two ropes left on it. Bart smirked beneath his helmet.

——————————————————————————————————

Alex had caught one last arrow. She took careful aim. The arrow sped off. Both ropes were severed. The catapults were down, and the enemies troops were thinning. She went down to join Spark and Jennifer in the fight.
