Disclaimer: I do not own Lord of the Rings at all, only what i have added to the story!!
I couldn't believe it the day had finally come. Mom, Dad and I were getting ready for our annual camping trip. "This trip is going to be the best trip ever," I thought to myself. The reason this trip was so different from our other trips is because we're heading to the Forgotten wood. That's where my parents found me. My parent's names are Richard and Arlene. That's right you heard me I'm adopted, my parents found me somewhere in the wood. (We're going to try to find the spot where they found me.)
The only thing I have that gives any clue to who my biological parents are is my small silver ring with a clear jewel on the top. I've had that ring ever since they found me, and took me home to rise me. That was fifteen years ago.
Anyway, I was just about finished with my packing; I just needed to find my ring. "Now where did I put it? On the night stand wasn't it?" I thought to myself. But when I looked it wasn't there. I glanced half-heartedly onto the floor my mind elsewhere; suddenly a picture flashed though my mind of my Star Wars book on the floor behind me. I turned around and looked down at the book. Dust had begun to accumulate on its cover. As I stared down at the book something shining off to the side caught my eye. I looked toward the shimmering object and saw that it was the silver chain I had threaded through the ring, so I could wear it like a necklace. I picked the ring up by the chain and put it on.
That seems to be one of the weird characteristics about my ring, don't get me wrong I know its just a ring, but when ever I lose it or miss place it, it seems to...to call out to me.
"Katy, are you packed yet it's almost time to go!" Dad hollered.
"I'm almost done; I just have zip up my backpack." I hollered back.
"Well hurry up, we'll meet you in the car." I picked up ten granola bars from the box I had in my room and stuffed them in my backpack before zipping it up. I headed outside and got into the car. "Alright we all buckled in? Good. Then let's pray." Dad suggested. We prayed to God to keep us all safe during our travels and to let this be a good and rewarding trip as well. Then we started down the road and into the horizon.
