A/N: Hey this is my first story so don't worry too much if it starts slow
please. Just stick with me and I'll get the hang of this. ^_^

Prologue
One night when Jessica was home alone she decided to rap one of her favorite songs to ease the boredom.
As she rapped "In The End" by Linkin Park a strange feeling came over her. It was like someone was listening to her rap. She never allowed people to hear her sing or rap. She was always too embarrassed.
She stopped rapping and looked around. There was no one there.
" Hmm I could have sworn there was someone here," she said puzzled. "Oh well, guess I was wrong."
She picked up the rap where she left off:
"The clock ticks life away
It's so unreal. Didn't look out below,
Watched the time go right out the window.
Tryin to hold on but I didn't even know I wasted
It all just to watch you go..."
Unknown to her a young man with gray eyes and long blonde hair was walking up behind her.
"That's strange music!" he said.
"Oh my gosh! What are you doing in my house!? How did you get in?" she yelled.
"Calm down m'lady. I don't know how I got here. I was speaking with Aragorn about a new technique I had come up with for archery, when I turned around I was here, listening to your music.
"Who are you?" she said as she put down the practice sword she had picked up when he surprised her.
"I am known as Legolas, Prince of Mirkwood. I am one of the many elves who shoot a bow well," he said pointing to the quiver and bow he had on his back. " I am also known for being a member of the Fellowship Of The Ring."
" Oh I know who you are! You traveled with Frodo Baggins to destroy the One Ring. My name is Jessica and my weapon of choice is a sword," she said.
" How did I get here? One moment I was home in Mirkwood..the next I heard your strange music and was here."
" The music you heard was rap. It's more like talking than singing.
" Alright. Perhaps if you start again I may go home," he said hopefully.
" I guess it's worth a shot," she said sadly.
" Why are you sad?" he asked.
" It's just that..well.. I'm a big fan of elves," she said. " I guess I think of them as everything I'm not. Do you think there is a way for me to enter your world as you have entered mine?"
"I do not know. I didn't even know there was another world. I suppose if I can enter yours you should be able to enter mine," he said surprised.
" Is it alright if I go back with you?"
" I suppose. I'm not sure what kind of welcome you will get, but at least I'll have proof that I found a new world."
" Okay let's try it."
Jessica began to rap again. as she rapped a portal opened into a strange forest. She waved Legolas through. " I'll come soon. I have to get some things first. Please wait for me!"
~*~
Jessica gathered some things she would need for the journey. Two changes of clothes, some emergency food, a short sword that she wore in a sheath across her back, six daggers ( four at her belt and one in each boot), a notebook, some pens, and some personal items.
" There I should be ready," she said as she rolled up a light but warm blanket and put on her cloak.
She began to rap again.. this time the portal open quicker. She saw the same forest with Legolas asleep against a tree. She stepped through and watched the portal snap closed.
