DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT in any way own any LOTR characters, all non -LOTR
characters are mine however.
The war was over. The one ring was destroyed and now there was no way to get home. Kayla placed her stuff down in the room Galadriel had assigned to her while she was staying with them. She wanted to get away from the reminders of war. She had wanted to go to Rivendell, the first place she'd even felt at home, but she knew Elrond was preparing to travel to the undying lands and she thought it would be too depressing. He'd been like a father to her and her friends since the day they mysteriously arrived in Middle Earth two years ago. It was there that they joined the fellowship, it was there that she learned to shoot a bow with almost elven accuracy, it was there that she met the fellowship; her greatest allies. She looked around the room and sighed.
She looked at her face in the mirror. It was dirty. "The dirt just finds me!" She groaned drawing a hot bath for herself, she liked Lorien at night. It was peaceful. Her time in Middle Earth had made her a better person and she was getting over Legolas. Morgan and Alana had wanted to come with her but she wanted to make the journey alone. She placed her bow on the bed and took off her clothes to take a shower, she did miss her friends; Frodo, Sam, Liz, Alana, Morgan, Aragorn, Gimli and maybe even Legolas. She had thought she'd loved him but she was mistaken. She spent a year fighting, protecting Frodo and Sam on their journey to Mount Doom. She's almost died at the hands of that wretched Gollum. Sam had caught her before she'd completely fallen into the fiery pits of the mountain.
She sat in the tub. This was her first real bath since she'd left Gondor. She hummed to herself and let the water flow around her as she thought about everything. It was odd to be alone when she was stuck in Middle Earth with four of her best friends. They had all changed. It was different to be around them. They had all seen so much death and destruction. After Aragorn and Arwen's wedding they seemed to drift. Liz, to Mirkwood with Legolas. The twins Alana and Morgan splitting up; Alana, staying in Gondor and Morgan going to Rohan after befriending Eowyn. She was a Rogue now. She'd decided to come back to Lorien to see if there was any hope for her getting back to Earth. There was nothing keeping her in Middle Earth now. She'd done what she's set out to. The One Ring was destroyed and Frodo and Sam were still alive.
Middle Earth was the first place where she felt like she had belonged and yet now she had a desire to leave and never return. She wanted to forget her feelings for Legolas and go back to being a normal 19 year old. It seemed like such a long time since she'd thought about home. Her life at home was not good. Her parents neglected her. They were addicts. Cocaine was their weapon of choice. Kayla made it a point to be out of the house whenever she could. She never heard anyone tell her that they loved her. She knew that her friends loved her; after all they were like her sisters, but she'd never known a parent's love or even the love of a man. It was a lonely journey she was taking through life and she wanted it to end. She realized she didn't want to go home but how could she stay in Middle Earth. She was trapped, she no longer felt secure in either world and the thought scared her.

Galadriel sensed the young warrior's anguish. The pain of a broken heart did not die easily. She wanted to help the young girl but felt it was necessary for Kayla to find her own path. She allowed her to stay in Lorien for as long as she liked but something had to change with in her heart first. It was then that the Lady of Lorien saw something different. Love was a complicated thing and there was one that loved this young woman but he dare not speak her name to another. He was strong and brave but kept his feelings pushed tightly into one corner of his mind. He now looked upon her coming with hidden excitement although he didn't dare show it. "Interesting indeed is the heart of an elf who longs to for the heart of a mortal woman." She said out loud to no one in particular.
A/N: Thanx for checking out the story, in case you're wondering this is the second part to another story I was writing with a friend of mine it was about four friends who go hiking in the woods and end up in middle earth joining the fellowship. This story is about Kayla who went to Mordor and harbored a deep love for everyone's favorite elf only to get her heart broken. Read and N'Joy. Please review and feel free to give me ideas too, lol ~ Keep it Deep~
