This is my first Lord of the Rings fic! I told myself I wasn't going to do this, but I had to! Let me know if things aren't correct and let me know what you think. I felt there needed to be more EomerxOC fics out there lol This is movie-verse mainly because I read the books way too long ago and I LOVE the movies! This takes place before the fellowship gets to Rohan and before Theodin is practically brainwashed. Also, DISCLAIMER! I do not own Lord of the Rings whatsoever. I just own Rowan and Vivian! (and probably the other characters I may come up with). I'm also thinking this is probably gonna be Mary-Sue...unfortunately for some, so if you despise Mary-Sues I suggest you go elsewhere and not bash my fic. Flames are not appreciated either and I will immeidately take this off if there are too many negative comments. Now that my long ramble is over...here you go!

Chapter One

Rowan Langley sat on the couch in the family room of her two-story house. Her best friend, Vivian Avalon, was sitting on the floor, putting in the next DVD for Lord of the Rings. They were having a marathon and it was the second part of the Two Towers Extended Edition.

"I'm going to get some fresh air before we continue this. Do you want to join me?" Vivian inquired and stood up.

"Might as well," Rowan agreed and stood up.

It was mid June in Ohio and the girls spent their days having movie marathons at each other's houses before they would head off to college. As the girls walked in the back yard, they walked deeper into the woods behind Rowan's house and suddenly something didn't feel right. The trees were thinning and mountains lay ahead. As soon as the trees disappeared, the girls looked back. They were lost. Vivian thought about going back, but decided against it.

"Where the hell are we?" Vivian inquired, looking around.

"I don't think we're in Ohio anymore, V. Um…maybe we should ask for directions," Rowan suggested and led the way.

The landscape was barren as the girls walked. Rolling hills made up the vast expanse of land. Rays of sunlight were beating down on them and they hadn't eaten anything since they finished the first part of the Two Towers DVD. Vivian trudged along and suddenly stopped.

"I can't go on, Rowan. We need to take a break. It looks like the sun is going down," Vivian pointed out and Rowan watched.

"I can carry you, V. It's not a problem. I just don't want to stick around when it gets darks because who knows what's out here," Rowan explained and Vivian got on her back.

"Where do you think we are?" Vivian wondered.

"My best bet is we're dreaming. The only way to get out of this dream is just to see where it goes," Rowan figured and continued walking.

The steepness of the hills caused Rowan to struggle and she suddenly fell to her knees. She was too tired to continue.

"I can't go on…but I don't want to stay here," Rowan said and fell on her back, looking up at the sky. Vivian joined her and they sat there on the grass.

Slowly, the girls fell asleep as the sun went down. The night air cooled them, but they were still hungry and thirsty. Vivian woke up first to notice that a group of something was coming toward them. She tried to wake Rowan, but fainted in fear before the group reached them.

Rowan woke up in a soft bed. She thought, for a moment, that it was just a dream. She hadn't carried Vivian for a great distance or got lost in the woods. When Rowan opened her eyes, she looked around in shock. She was dressed in a white gown and the floor was stone. The roof above her was obviously wood and there were many carved horses everywhere! Rowan sat up in the bed and swung her legs around. Testing the floor, she lightly placed one of her feet on the stone and recoiled instantly. The stone floor was ice cold and she didn't want her toes to freeze. So, Rowan decided to stay right where she was and wait until someone entered the room.

Vivian woke instantly and noticed a young woman in the room. She smiled at Vivian and for the first time, Vivian noticed that she was wearing a white sort of nightgown.

"You should take it easy," she stated and Vivian nodded slowly.

"Where am I?" Vivian inquired and the woman placed a dress down on a table in the corner.

"You're in Rohan. My brother and his eored found you last night and brought you and your friend back. It's a miracle you weren't eaten by wargs," the woman said.

"We're in Rohan, as in Middle Earth?" Vivian was shocked.

The woman nodded.

"Who are you?" Vivian inquired slowly, hoping she wasn't right about the woman's name.

"I'm Éowyn and my brother is Éomer, children of Éomund," she replied and Vivian ran her hand down the side of her face.

"Rowan's going to flip," she muttered to herself and Éowyn leaned closer.

"What is your name, then?" Éowyn wondered and Vivian cleared her throat.

"I'm Vivian…daughter of Ivan," Vivian answered and exhaled.

"Where are you from, Lady Vivian?" Éowyn wondered and Vivian laughed on the inside.

"I don't have anywhere to call my home. My friend and I…we were lost. She tried to carry me because I was too tired, but she grew weary as well," Vivian explained with a slight shrug. At least they were safe.

"I should go attend to your friend. She seems very strong," Éowyn said and smiled before leaving.

Rowan jumped when a young girl entered. She grinned at Rowan and put a gown on a small table.

"I just met your friend. She's well and it seems you are as well. I'm Éowyn," the woman said and Rowan's jaw dropped.

"I knew we were in Rohan!" Rowan declared and Eowyn was startled.

"Yes, you are. My brother brought you here. He had no clue as to why two young ladies would be wandering the land dressed in such an odd manner. Your old clothes are being cleaned, but I have provided you with an alternative outfit," Éowyn explained.

"I'm Rowan, by the way," Rowan said with a smile and Éowyn nodded.

"My uncle will want to meet you both later. Éomer will also want to introduce himself. There is a pair of boots in the corner if you wish to wear them. Your other…boots are there as well. Someone will come by shortly to help you dress," Éowyn stated and exited the room.

Rowan got up from the small bed and ran to get her sneakers on. As she ran, she hissed in pain. It wasn't a far distance, but the floor was making it difficult for Rowan to move with ease. Once getting her sneakers on, she really wished she had her socks, but they were probably being cleaned also.

As Rowan walked, she felt strange wearing a dress. It moved with her as she strode across the room and she suddenly decided to find Vivian. Just as she was about to reach the door, a woman around the age of Eowyn, entered the room. Her clothes were plain and she smiled at Rowan.

"I can help you change, my lady," she said and retrieved the dress.

Reluctantly, Rowan undressed and covered herself. Back home, she liked privacy and never let anyone see her naked. The woman who helped her said nothing, but gazed at the scar on her left shoulder.

"That looks like a terrible wound," the woman stated as she continued helping Rowan get dressed.

"It was nothing, really. I wasn't paying attention…and the blade cut my shoulder," Rowan explained. During fencing class about a year ago, Rowan and her teacher used real sword and she wasn't quick enough. Her instructor felt horrible, but Rowan didn't mind it. She liked having battle scars.

"There; you are beautiful, my lady," the woman said and stepped back to take a look at Rowan.

The gown was a light blue and the belt had golden thread woven in a regal pattern. The neckline was round and the sleeves were very long, but Rowan gazed up at her hair. The front two pieces were braided back and her long blonde hair was down in waves.

"Thank you so much. I actually look decent," Rowan said with a chuckle and the woman bowed her head before leaving the room.

In the corner of the room, Rowan realized the boots remained, so she slipped into them. They weren't as comfortable as she hoped, but at least she would fit in with the people of Rohan. Rowan's black and highlighter yellow sneakers would stick out indefinitely.

Vivian gazed at herself in the mirror after the woman had helped her. It was a light red color that could almost pass off as pink, but Vivian spun around. The sleeves cascaded down and the stitching was silver along the neck, bodice, belt, and the hem of the dress. Vivian's blonde hair was brushed so that it flowed down her back.

When she asked the woman who helped her where Rowan was, she smiled.

"You both are quite beautiful. Lady Éowyn must keep you close or one of the men will snatch you away," the woman warned as they walked out of the room and down the hall.

They came to a halt in front of a door and the woman entered. Vivian followed and saw her best friend. Rowan was standing by the window and turned with a grin on her face.

"You look so cute!" Rowan cried and Vivian ran to hug her.

"We both look adorable!" Vivian agreed.

"The king will see you both now," the woman spoke up and the two best friends grabbed each other's hand before following the woman.

So, they're gonna see Theodin! Lemme know what you think :D
