Disclaimer - I own nothing. Wait, I own some things. Okay, anything or anyone you've read in the books or seen in the movie belongs to Tolkien, and I promise to feed and water them regularly and make Legolas eat his veggies (Legolas: Hey! Me: Quiet you!). Anything you haven't heard of before you read my story is mine! If you want to borrow them, tell me because I want to read what you write about them! I'll be happy to lend them to you!! The title was Shirley Jackson's from her awesome book, the Haunting of Hill House. Go read it!

A/N - Okay, first of all please don't kill me if my grammar is wrong! I'm pretty close, but I'm not good with comma splices so forgive me if I have mistakes! Most of this story was written very late at night to early in the morning (I'm a college student, most of what I do is during those hours:-) so if something doesn't make sense or I jump around, tell me it doesn't make sense! Then I'll try to fix it! Anyway! I'd like to thank my friend Rebecca! She read this story and since she was reading it she gave me a reason to finish (even though I'm not in Vinton anymore, hehe)! She also helped me brainstorm ideas, which rocks! LOVE YOU BECCA!!!! When I come home we are SO going to Denny's to eat cheesy fries!! YAY!! CHEESY FRIES ROCK!!! Teehee! Anyway, another thing is I divided it into chapters after I wrote it, so if the chapters don't make sense, tell me and suggest another place to break! I also really really suck at titles so forgive the titles. I really don't like my main title. It was in a Shirley Jackson book, the Haunting of Hill House, which is an awesome book by the way! So I figured why not use it?

Rating: PG-13 (the rating is for adult situations, or rather one adult situation that is sort of important to the plot (especially in the alternate ending), wait plot? What plot? I don't believe in plots! Anyway! It's not nasty or slash or anything so I think PG-13 is a very reasonable rating. If someone thinks it should be higher or lower then by all means feel free to change it! I just stink at ratings!)

Title: Journey's End in Lovers Meeting By: Bean

Prologue:

A small elven babe let out a small wail as she woke from her sleep. Her Father place a calming hand on his daughter's back, soothing her. He sung a soft song to her, calming the babe. He smiled proudly as the babe drifted off to sleep once more. A new life, a new beginning, he could see the future in his daughter's tiny face. He knew his people where fast leaving Middle Earth, but in the winter this new flower had come, and winter flowers were rare and most beautiful. The babe opened her eyes again but this time instead of crying out, she held her arms up to her Father, waiting to be lifted into his comforting embrace. The Father smiled and lifted his girl into his secure arms, rocking her, kissing her tiny head. His daughter, he thought with pride. His mind wandered from the nursery to many things. He thought about his daughter's future. Where would she go? Who would she meet? Would she travel far or stay in one place? He then stared down at her small face, the next question burned with urgency. Would she be loved once he was gone from Middle Earth?
