AN// Well, this is the first chapter of I have no clue how many. There will be romance. May be borderlining a Mary Sue being as it is about a girl being sent to Middle Earth, but I'll try not to stick to the norm. On with it then.
Disclaimer: I own nothing. Really. I'm having a serious lack of cash, so if anyone has any to spare...So don't sue. Not worth your time or mine.
Chapter 1.
Nibinaranwenaminiwen glided through the wooded glade. Her long silver blond hair blew out behind her as she danced across the path in front of her. She gracefully let her ridiculously heavy haversack fall to the ground as the green leaves of the forest shone in her even greener eyes and reflected off her star white skin. Suddenly Legolas appeared and he fell in lo- "Pha! That's enough of that!" Ayden reached over and shut off the monitor on her computer.
"I see that paper is coming along really well. Me too. The late night movie on Showcase wasn't the best tonight but not bad," Madison flicked off the small lamp beside the couch and slid her three quarter empty popcorn bowl along the cluttered counter. "Think we should get some dishes done before we hit the sack?"
Ayden leaned back in her worn, overstuffed, computer chair and smiled at her racoon eyed flat mate, "You've asked that every night for the past two weeks. That is why I keep saying we get some of that Gladware stuff or some paper plates. We could just throw them out."
"Yeah, well when was the last time either one of us took out the trash?" Madison laughed. Both took a look at the overflowing can that sat in a corner of the kitchen and shuddered.
"Lets leave all till tomorrow," Ayden stood up and stretched. Dark circles surrounded her murky greenish eyes. Cracking her knuckles, she made her way past the piles of clothes to the door of her room.
"Promise?" Madison leaped over to her door and poked her head in.
"Sure."
"We'll start at nine. Make a day of it."
"Fine."
"Maybe we should go outside instead. You know, out for a walk or something. We're both looking a little ghosty."
"Alrighty then."
"Which is it? Outside or cleaning?" Madison leaned further in.
"How about we clean, then go from there?" Ayden rolled over and pulled the covers up over her head.
"Works for me." Madison closed Ayden's door and manuvered her way around to her room.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ayden woke with a groan. The bed was to her right and the sheets were tangled all around her legs. The alarm clock up on the bedside table against her back glowed eleven o'clock am. Kicking her way free, Ayden pulled her baggy pyjama pants up and her short spaghetti strap shirt down. She shuffled out of her room with her eyes barely open. Grabbing her toothbrush she sat on the toilet seat as she lazily brushed back and forth. She spit and wiped her mouth before moving on into the kitchen. Ayden grabbed the box of Count Chocula cereal from a half open cupboard and wandered around to Madison's room. No one was in it. With a sigh, Ayden shoved one more handful of the cereal into her mouth before putting the box down. She pulled her medium length brown hair up into two loose braids without bothering to brush any of it.
"Okay. First thing to do is um..." She glanced around the room before she settled on the T.V. area. She grabbed a big green garbage bag from under the sink and started shoving things in trying not to look in detail at what was growing on the old bag of chips or half eaten piece of toast with peanut butter. In no time flat, the coffee table and under and around it were both in fairly clean states. There were still many crumbs, but the vacuum could pick those up.
The couch itself was an old beat up one that Ayden had found someone trying to throw out. It really did need to be pitched, but it was comfortable and free, so it stayed. Ayden cleaned it up a bit. She folded up the quilts and found a five-dollar bill in between the seat cushions.
"BACK!!!" Madison called from outside the door. Ayden opened the door and almost got soaked in steaming hot coffee. "I got coffee for us and groceries for...um...us also. Darn! I was really hoping you would have more of this place clean before I got back. Oh well."
"Ah, I see. Normally I would be mad at you for leaving me with cleaning the place, but you brought coffee so it's all good." Ayden carried the two coffees and set them down on a corner of the counter before setting the full brown bags next to it.
Madison flicked on the computer and turned on some music before she set out to clean around the desk area. Every now and again she would pause to change to a better song at Ayden's request, but other than that, the girls worked in determined silence.
Grimacing, Ayden tackled the kitchen. Feverishly pitching things into the soapy sink trying to ignore the smells.
Four hours later, the apartment was in fairly decent shape. The laundry was piled in three laundry bins ready to be taken to the laundermat, the floor just needed to be vaccumed, three full garbage bags stood by the door ready to be thrown down the shute and the girls sat on the couch exhausted.
"I don't want to go outside. Too.Weak." Madison grabbed the remote and started flicking around trying to find something to watch on T.V.
"Its getting cloudy anyways," Ayden sighed and looked out the window.
"How about a movie then?" Ayden flopped over to see what they had for DVD's under the coffee table. "...Price of Milk? Karl Urban is cute in it."
"Nah. I've seen it too many times this past week," Madison answered.
"Rocky Horror Picture show? Tim Curry in heals."
"That movie wrecked Muppet Treasure Island for me."
"What the?...Why do we have Harry Potter?"
"Ah-I just felt like buying it one day. Its for ah-when my little sister comes to visit." Madison stammered grabbing at the case in Ayden's hand.
"Lord of the Rings it is then," Ayden sat up and crawled towards the DVD player. She unfolded the case and set the first disc in. The player closed and whirred as it read the DVD. A huge boom of thunder shook the whole apartment and all the lights flickered and went out. Madison's eyes grew wide with fright as she looked at Ayden.
"What's wrong?" Ayden asked.
Madison just pointed back at her. Ayden turned around and saw that the DVD player was still going, Except the whirring was getting louder. Ayden reached over to press the eject button. Madison squeeled "No! Don't touch it!" And grabbed at Ayden.
"Oh come on," She smiled as her friend grabbed on to her wrist, but she pressed the button with her other hand anyways.
A shock shot through Ayden's entire body. It wasn't just a little one too. It tingled from where her finger was all the way down to her toes. Ayden became acutely aware of a silence that seemed to echo throughout the room. Something was missing. She sat for what seemed like minutes thinking about it. Her breathing. She could no longer hear the constant in and out of her lungs. A buzzing sound started out of nowhere. It was her heart. It felt like it was beating so fast it was about to burst. The buzzing like that of humming bird wings grew louder and louder till her head rang in the sound and her world went dark.
