Ok, this is my first fanfic so don't hate me. The first part is at the ministry of magic in the OotP and how the trio came to Middle Earth. So please please please please read and review! CheshireCat23 thanks for pointing out that mistake so I reposted it. Thanks!

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings, probably never will **sigh**.

Chapter 1: Prologues & People

"Hermione, no!" Harry and Ron ran towards her as a jet of purple flames streaked towards her. They reached her the moment the curse collided. There was a blinding flash of white light and they were gone.

o.O.o.O.o.O.o

The air was peaceful and serene as it always was in Rivendell but Legolas felt a twinge of unease as if something was going to happen. Hepushed it off and continued his walk. Suddenly Legolas jumped into the branches of a nearby tree as he heard some voices coming from a nearby clearing.

"Harry, come on we have to help Hermione." "I know, but we don't even know where we are. Definitely not in the Ministry that's for sure." Legolas crept closer to the clearing and saw two boys. One was tall, gangly and had red hair; the other was shorter, had black hair and green eyes with circles on them.

Legolas had never seen anyone like them before, though they both looked weary and anxious. The tall one was crouched over someone else and Legolas carefully crept around to see and what he did see was an amazing sight. An unconscious girl of such breathtaking beauty that almost rivalled Arwen's. She had honey-brown hair that hung in ringlets to her waist and her figure wasn't too bad either. He scolded himself for thinking those thoughts when he didn't even know these people.

"Help! Help!" The two shouted. He jumped out of the tree and approached them silently while drawing his bow. "Who are you and state your business here." He said when he was behind them. They whirled around and pointed two sticks at him, but when the saw the arrows pointed them, their eyes widened. "I repeat myself, who are you and what is your business?"

The black haired boy spoke first "How do we know we can trust you?" he replied with a tinkling laugh "You have nothing to fear if you are against the Dark Lord Sauron." Then the red haired one spoke "Who the bloody hell is that? We thought the Dark Lord was Voldemort?"

Legolas frowned at that and lowered his bow "I know not of this Voldemort which you speak of. May hap you should come to Elrond for counselling." The black haired boy whom I assumed was Harry spoke again "Well I'm Harry Potter and this is Ron Weasley, but before we go anywhere could you help Hermione? She was hit by some dark curse." Legolas looked at her closely and sensed some dark traces on her. "This is not within my knowledge of healing, though Lord Elrond shall know, for he is caring for a hobbit at the moment."

Ron couldn't stand it anymore "Ok we'll come with you, but first, not to be rude, what are you?" Legolas laughed again "My name is Legolas Greenleaf and I am an elf of Mirkwood. You are currently in Rivendell of my kinsfolk and Elrond is the leader. This world is called Middle Earth." "We have elves at home but they are very different to you." Harry said. Ron spoke again "Yeah, and thanks, but can we go now but I'm kinda worried about Hermione." "Of course," he agreed, "Follow me," and he picked up Hermione and leaped off towards Elrond's quarters.

After a while Legolas realised that they were lagging behind. "I apologise, we have nearly reached our destination. Afterwards you may rest and eat." Ron's eyes lit up at the prospect of food. Legolas gave a small smile and hurried to Elrond.

He knocked on his door and waited. Elrond looked at the bedraggled children and led them towards a spare room next to Frodo's. "Place her on this bed and I shall see what I can do for her." He looked her over and occasionally murmured some words. "She shall awaken soon, but first I must talk with you," Elrond said with a piercing gaze, "Follow me." He led them to his room.

"Explain why these people are here Legolas." And Legolas proceeded to explain everything he had seen and heard this afternoon. "Well," Elrond now said to Harry and Ron, "How did you come to be here?" "We don't know how we got here. We were running towards Hermione as she was cursed and we found ourselves here."

"You are wizards are you not?" They nodded their heads. "Well you may speak with Gandalf the Grey about your situation and Legolas can show you around Rivendell during your stay." "Thank you." Harry said. "But for now you should go get some rest, you must be tired." Elrond said with a small smile.
