A/N Ok this is the second version of this story. It IS under a new title, but it is the same story. There are a few changes to the beginning, such as, the girl character. Last time her name was Atrethien and she lived with her family. Now her name is Estelwen and she lives in Rivendell, away from her family. There are other changes, but not anything important. I hope you enjoy this one!!!!
Dream sequence
Estelwen is sitting in a secret council. She does not know what she is here for but there are several people there, such as dwarves, men, a wizard, a Halfling, other elves, herself, and Lord Elrond. It was because of Lord Elrond, she was here. That much she knew. There was one elf in particular that she felt a connection with though, she did not know why. He had blonde hair and blue eyes, just like most of her people looked like, but something was different....
End Dream Sequence
"Estelwen!!!!" It was the middle of the day and she was supposed to be practicing her powers. It was her friend Arwen who woke her up from her daydream. "Sorry Arwen, I saw something weird. Did you need something?" "You foresaw something? What, pray tell, would that be?"
"It was nothing important. Do you need help with something?" "Oh, yes, my father, Lord Elrond requests to see you in his office immediately." "Ok, I will be right there. Thank you." And with that Arwen was off. Estelwen got up and brushed her hair. Within 5 minutes, she was at the doors. She knocked quietly, as not to disturb anything. "You may enter" said a voice on the other side of the door.
"You wished to see me my Lord?" Estelwen said with a slight bow.
"Yes. Arwen is worried something is wrong with Aragorn. No matter how many time I insist that he is well, she continues to worry. She has requested to go and search for him."
"You wish me to go with her and help the people that are with him?"
"You have foreseen this?" Estelwen nodded, "Yes, I knew you probably have. Very well. You may go with her once you both are ready to leave. But hurry back, I may need you skills as soon as Arwen gets back."
"I will, My Lord. I have seen the seriousness of the situation. Arwen and I will leave immediately. Thank you, Lord Elrond" she bowed and left. As she reached the door Lord Elrond cautioned her: "Take your bow and arrows. There is no telling what you will find on your journey."
Estelwen started back to her room when she bumped into someone. "So what did my father say?" "I will be going with you. Though for other reasons. I will meet you in the stables in half an hour to leave. Pack very little and bring you sword. I will see in a moment."
Precisely half an hour later, Arwen showed up in the stables. Estelwen and Arwen mounted their horses and made for Amon Sul, which was advised by Lord Elrond. It took them two day to find Aragorn and the Halflings. Nothing eventful happened on their journey, so I'll just skip to when they meet.
"What's this? A Ranger caught off his guard?"
"Arwen! Estelwen! I need your help. We were..."
"Save your breath, I know what happened, where is he?"
Arwen and Aragorn went to see Frodo, while Estelwen gathered more of the Athalas plant. She returned to Aragorn and Arwen just as Arwen was leaving. "Ride hard, don't look back" "Yes and be careful the Nazgul are right behind us." Arwen left leaving the 3 hobbits, Estelwen, and Aragorn behind. One of the hobbits was clearly upset about the ring wraiths being so close.
"Well, what are we waiting for?" said Estelwen about 5 minutes later, "Get on my horse. Aragorn take Sam and go! I can take the other two. We can catch up if we go quickly!" She grabbed Merry and Pippin onto her horse and rode off. Aragorn and Sam were right behind.
When they got to the river, it had just settled down from Arwen's spell. They crossed and realized that Arwen was on the ground trying to save Frodo. When they got to the other side, Estelwen dismounted and ran over to Arwen.
"Arwen, give the boy to me. Go with Aragorn and the others. I might be able to save him if I go now. Please." Arwen helped Estelwen mount Frodo to her horse. "Save him please. I will meet you back in Rivendell." Estelwen hugged her friend and rode off.
When she got to Rivendell, Lord Elrond was waiting in the stables. "Lord Elrond, he has been stabbed by a Morgul blade. Aragorn found them in Bree." When they got to a room that had been set up, she set him down in the bed. "Gandalf!!!!" said Estelwen before she could stop herself. She bowed and then she and Lord Elrond got down to business.
