A/N: A flash forward for the ending of this fic! If you wish to know how this happens please PM me, and say so! Or review…. I don't care….. Please enjoy! :D Beware an OC is main character in here! By the way I own nothing but this plot and my OC's! Lord of the Rings belongs to our beloved Tolkien.

Rain stood there in the rain. His silver blond hair had long ago turned grey because of the sky's tears, his cloths offering no help to fight off the cold. He was drenched to the bone, because he couldn't take it any more. He couldn't watch them any more, they were so happy with out him. Even if Legolas and Aragorn didn't know, he couldn't cry, he wouldn't cry, not in front of them. They were his closest friends, and the ones that would kill him. They looked so happy together, finally married like they should be… But he was just a shadow now, they would never know he loved them, loved them so much it was killing him. He had a chance to tell them but he just ran away. A sob escaped him and tears finally escaped cascading down his cheeks despite his trying to hold them in. They streamed down his cheeks leavening crimson trails that would be washed away and blurred by the rain…

How ironic, he thought, that the rain would be the only thing left to cry with him, to try to comfort him, the thing he was named and it was all that was left… The only thing left was the rain and Rains' pain… But they were happy so he could just leave knowing that Aragorn and Legolas would be happy with out their friend Rain ripping them apart, destroying what they had, by trying to be there with them.

Rain walked away from the palace, he couldn't face his family, they would try to save him, but they would just destroy him even more. If his soul could be seen, he knew it would just be a ripped and tattered rag. He felt like an idiot, he owed his friends and adoptive father so much and he was just throwing it away… In the end he had thrown himself away… So in the rain he walked toward the gate taking the long path out of the palace walls. Stumbling more often then not, little did he know someone had watched him, and that someone knew he suffered, and would try their beast to save him. The grey cloaked figure moved quickly his work would mean life or death for that young elf.

A/N: as most of you guessed Rain is an elf, and he loves Aragorn and Legolas but is too scared to tell them because he does not want to hurt them or rip them apart. You should have also guessed he is beginning to fade… Hope to get a review….. Rain is an OC of mine don't like don't read. I think Rain reflects a part of me… I don't know.
