Summarry: two girls get sucked into Middle Earth duh! and meet two certain elves. Mmhmm, I know, done before. But there should be a twist somewhere in there... smiles evilly
Character Descriptions (just so I won't have to describe them during the story and bore you even more than this story might):
Andrea "AJ" Jones: 21 years old, tall (5'10"), slender, lightly tanned skin, curly red hair cut to just above her shoulders. Deep, indigo eyes. Very aggressive and protective of her loved ones, kind of a smart ass and lovin' it. Very intelligent and powerful. Not someone you want as an enemy. Preferred weapon: the Chinese Zai, singular Sai (AN: if you've seen Daredevil, the weapons Elektra uses, or if you've seen the Mummy Returns, the weapons that Nefertiri and Ank-su-namun use to fight each other).
Britania Jones: 21 years old (their twins), short (5'4"), slim, pale skin, straight, light red hair going down to the middle of her shoulders. Soft, blue eyes. Very shy and sweet, fears confrontation. Intelligent, and yet streetwise. Preferred weapon: long sword.
Okay, those are my characters! Read on!
Sweet Dreams
Chapter One
PG-13
The alarm buzzed loudly in the dark room, announcing its presence to the slumbering occupant. A groan could be heard from underneath the covers on the large bed, as a slender hand shot out and whacked the clock viciously to the other side of the room. Six thirty in the morning was definitely not the most preferable of times to wake up.
AJ shot up when she heard her sister bang on the door, "AJ! Get your lazy but outa bed! Right now, before I have to come in there and drag it out!"
What a way to say good morning, AJ thought dryly as she rubbed her temples, her red hair a riot around her face.
"Did you hear me! Are you awake!?" Came Britania's suspicious voice.
"I'm awake!" AJ barked, glaring at the closed door as she heard her sister chuckle triumphantly and whistle to herself. Sadistic little leprachaun, just because she was a morning person did NOT mean that everyone else was.
After her first attempt to roll out of the warm, comfy, cozy bed failed, AJ just rolled out, then cursed loudly as she got caught in her sheets, therefore making her fall to the ground much harder. Because they had graduated college a year early, AJ and Britania were now living on their own, trying to survive one day to the next. Their parents had died when they were ten, and they had no known relatives, and got rushed off to an orphanage. Whenever a prospective parent would look at Britania, AJ scared them off, and scared off her prospective parents as well so that they would stay together.
Pulling herself up off the floor, AJ clumsily made her way around her darkened room, muttering foul curses as her feet came in contact with random objects strewn about the floor. She was not quite the neat freak her sister was.
"AJ! Hurry up and get dressed! We have to be leaving soon!"
"Yes, m'am!" AJ called out sarcastically, as she mocked her sisters voice, "AJ, get up! AJ, do this! AJ, do that! Hmph, I'm not her slave."
"I heard that!"
AJ glared at the door again, though she knew it wouldn't have done much protection any way. Both AJ and Britania had an uncanny sense of hearing, so much so that they could hear many things distinctly that others could not. They could also see much better than the average layman. And, to make matters even more odd, they were much more light than others, not sinking into the snow as deep as other people did. And Montana saw a lot of snow.
Still grumbling, AJ pulled on her favorite pair of dark jeans, black sweater, and her favorite pair of black hiking boots. Darker colors always suited her better. Then, she proceded to grab her purse, shoove her cell phone and wallet in it, and bow respectively of the huge Legolas poster she had hanging in her room.
Ever since they were little, both Britania and AJ had been obsessed with the Lord of the Rings and other assorted Tolkein works. They were ecstatic when the films had come out. So much so that they had practically ever line memorized from the first two movies, and were eagerly awaiting the next one that would come out soon. AJ especially liked Orlando Bloom/Legolas for those big, baby blue eyes that were just so ensnaring. Besides that, both girls had always felt some weird connection with the film, as if they had actually been in it or something. Though, neither had ever told a soul.
After her morning ritual was complete, she stumbled into the kitchen where her sister was busy making hot chocolate (neither could stand coffee). Brit was simlilarly clothed, only in lighter clothing. She wore light, boot cut jeans, a warm, close knit beige sweater and her tan hiking boots. Her hair, unlike AJ's, who just wore it down, was in a messy bun and she was humming softly to herself.
"Hm, where did I put those marshmellows?" Brit said softly, in a distracted manner.
"Talking to yourself, Brit? You know, they say that's the first signal that you are losing your mind, or what ever little was left of it," AJ said playfully, her indigo eyes bright and playful now that she was more awake.
Brit jumped, startled by the sudden presence of her sister, who had a special talent to sneak up silently on people. Placing a hand to her chest, she glared at the tall woman before her, "Quit doing that, AJ! It's annoying!"
AJ rolled her eyes, "Oh, and waking me up at six thirty in the morning isn't?"
Again, Brit settled a steady glare on her, "AJ, you know we have to leave early if we want to miss traffic. Remember, we're going skiing today? Don't want to take long time to get there? Must wake early?"
Groaning, and leaning her head back, AJ said, "Dude, Brit, your whacked up. I'm sure that I could have squeezed in a good fifteen more minutes!"
"That's what you said when I tried to wake you up at six."
"See! I was-oh, six? Well, so I was fifteen minutes off. Who cares! I still think we could have slept in longer!"
Shaking her head and looking severly at her sister, Brit said, "AJ, your incouragable. Now, get your hot chocolate and lets get moving. I don't want to be late."
Shooing her away with her hands, Brit quickly went to the small table by the door, hot chocolate in hand, and grabbed her purse. AJ smiled impishly as she got her hot chocolate ready and grabbed the keys to their new, 2003 Dodge Stratus. They walked down the stairs of their apartment, bantering good naturedly with each other as they reached the car.
AJ got in the drivers seat, not a very willing person to let even her own sister drive her baby. They were still giggling as they pulled out of the driving lot, and as they made it to the first light.
"Oh, this will be so much fun!" Brit gushed as she looked out at the snow all around her.
Smiling softly, AJ nodded and began to drive as the light turned green, "Yes, it will."
They did not even see the enormous SUV coming toward them until it was too late. The last sound both girls heard was the loud blare of the horns, then all went black.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
AJ moaned softly as awareness came back to her. Pain engulfed her entire body, and somehow AJ managed a soft groan. The pain subsided ever so slightly, and AJ tried to open her eyes.
What had happened? The last thing she rememebered was driving with Brit.
Britania!
Where was she? AJ became frantic, and tried desperately to open the marble slabs over her eyes. When she finally managed to lift them, she had to close them immediately, blinded by the bright light. Again, she attempted to open her eyes, this time more slowly, so they would become accostomed to the light.
After several moments, she was able to open her eyes fully and without much pain from the light. It took her a moment longer to be able to move the pupils around, but she finally managed it. What she saw shocked her.
Toto, she thought, I don't think we're in Kansas any more.
Well, there we go. My first chapter. If you review, if I can get at least one review, I'll write more! I promise! Thanks a bunch. Sparky
