Angel sat at his desk, looking over some paperwork. He rubbed his forehead in frustration. He leaned back and closed his eyes, but his wanted nap would have to wait as a scream erupted from the lobby. Angel jumped to his feet and ran out of his office. He caught Cordelia just in time. She winced and yelled in pain. Wesley and Gunn ran to her side as well.

"Cordy! Talk to me, what's going on?" Angel asked his voice full of concern.

"A man, he's being attacked by terrible demon looking things. They have black blood and their faces look like they got run over. Wait, there's six more men. Four little ones, they look like children and a very short man. Then there's another man, oh he's cute, long blond hair. He's wearing a pin that looks like a leaf." Suddenly the pain stopped. "Wow. That was different."

"Where are they?" Wesley asked.

"That's why it was so weird. There was nothing around that told me where these guys were. The things it kept showing was that leaf pin, swords, and a gold ring." Cordy stared at Angel and blinked her eyes. She gasped suddenly, "Angel, here's your way!" Suddenly a shining light exploded from her chest creating a huge portal. "Wesley, you too!" Cordy yelled. "Gunn, I need you here."

Angel stared at Cordelia, silently wondering if she was okay. Then he looked at Wesley who nodded and threw him a sword. They jumped into the portal side by side. At once the light retreated leaving Cordelia gasping for breath.

Angel and Wesley landed with a thud on the ground. They were in a wooded area and the sun was shining brightly down. The SUN! Angel quickly panicked, but soon realized that it didn't hurt him. Wesley smiled at his friend, who was now looking up at the sky. Then out of nowhere, an arrow flew and hit Angel square in the right shoulder.

A blond haired man stepped out from behind a tree and then six more. Four looked like children like Cordelia had said. The others were a man with a long red beard and another man with shoulder length hair.

"Why have you come to the forests of Middle-Earth?" The blond one said in a thick British accent.

Angel and Wesley were speechless.
