Hey I don't own Twilight or Lord of the Rings.
Hope you enjoy : )
Vampires In Middle-Earth
The bonds cut,
The spirit broken
The Flame of Anor has left this World
Mithrandir, Mithrandir, O Pilgrim Grey!
No more you will wander the Orange world
Your journey has ended in darkness.
Chapter 7: Lothlórien
It was twilight when we reached the forest of Lothlórien. I always loved it here; these woods made me feel calm and peaceful. But it was not like that for some others. You could feel the power floating through the trees; the Cullen's could feel it as they were moving cautiously through the forest. After what happened at the…Mines, Edward had been staying close to, against my better judgment I let him.
"Stay close, young Hobbits!" Gimli whispered. I rolled my eyes. "They say that a great sorceress lives in these woods, an Elf-witch, of terrible power. All who look upon her, fall under her spell…"
Eirien Isabella…it has been long since you were last here in my woods, Granddaughter…
I smiled slightly. Suddenly Edward jerked back, and I nearly walked into him.
I do not like that these creatures are here…We shall meet soon…
"Well, here's one Dwarf she won't ensnare so easily" Gimli growled "I have the eyes of a hawk and the ears of a fox…Oh!"
Edward suddenly went into a defensive crouch, growling menacingly, in front of me. I peered over his shaking shoulder. Arrows surrounded us, pointing at our faces.
"The Dwarf breathes so loud, we could have shot him the dark!" a familiar voice drifted over to me.
We were lead through the woods until we reach a wooden platform, Edward did not leave my side, god knows why. The Hobbits and Cullen's were farther back as Haldir spoke to us.
"Mae govannen, Legolas Thranduilion" Haldir said in greeting. (Welcome Legolas, son of Thranduil)
"Govannas vîn gwennen le, Haldir o Lórien…" Legolas replied. (Our Fellowship stands in your debt, Haldir of Lórien.)
"Eirien tïën sïén naén ónoúrhë ótën ávéhï óuyen niën uroen óodswá nceóth órëmä..." he said kindly. (Eirien it is an honour to have you in our woods once more…)
"Heten onourhú sïén lláen inemé, Haldir" I said bowing my head slightly. (The honour is all mine, Haldir)
"A, Aragorn in Dúnedain istannen le ammen." (Oh, Aragorn of the Dúnedain, you are known to us.)
"Haldir" was all he said also bowing slightly.
"So much for the legendary courtesy of the Elves! Speak words we can also understand!" Gimli snapped. I glared at him.
"We have not had dealings with the Dwarves since the Dark Days." Haldir said glancing down at Gimli.
"And you know what this Dwarf says to that? Ishkhaqwi ai durugnul!" Gimli spat (I spit upon your grave!)
I gasped, how could he be so rude! He should be grateful that they didn't shoot him on the spot! Aragorn grabbed Gimli roughly by the shoulder.
"That was not so courteous!" He hissed at the ungrateful Dwarf.
Haldir glances at Frodo "You bring grate Evil with you" then at Edwards protective stance and the rest of his family, Haldir's eyes went cold. "These creatures are not welcomed here…You can go no farther" he said to the rest of us.
A few minutes later Aragorn and myself were arguing with Haldir trying to get him to let us through.
"Leásepí ëwen ëednä óúyën elphí" I whispered angrily."fíën éwen ógën nyäén théróth óadrë ëwén íllwï ïeden, hëntó heten nëmyëth illwë ävehó hëten Ingrá ndäen héten órldwë íllwé ällfé ntóith arcnëssdú"(Please we need you help, if we go any other road we will die, then the enemy will have the Ring and the world will fall into darkness)
"Ién íllwí ótnën ëtlen heten Ïngrú róén hosëtï rëätúrescé ógén nyáén ärtherfë!" he hissed back. (I will not let the Ring or those creatures go any farther!)
"Leäsepó Haldir, héten Cullen's rënäth'tén äén angérdï, heytó'even ávëdsï ymen ïfëla!" I snapped. (Please Haldir, the Cullen's aren't a danger, they've saved my life!)
"Iën ancén'tën ëlievebí óúryä éfendíngdë hémté! Ftéräth hátwï heytë iddén óten ouyen!" (I can't believe your defending them! After what they did to you!)
"Íën nowcï hatwé hëytë ïdden! Íen ódën otnen eedné emïndingré! Llaén fóén suen réäén noen hëtën amësé uestqë, ótën ëstróydú hëten Ïngrú! Oúyen ústmú ëtlen súën asspä!" I pleaded. (I know what they did! I do not need reminding! All of us are on the same quest, to destroy the Ring! You must let us pass!)
"Henio, aníron boe ammen i dulu lîn!" Aragorn whispered. (Please, understand, we need your support!)
Haldir turned away looking less then happy. "You will follow me" he said to us. Haldir led the way through the golden trees. After several hours of walking over roots and leaves that covered the ground, we came to an opening, and there bellow us as if a separate forest, was the heart of Lothlórien.
"Caras Galadhon…the heart of Elvendom on earth." Haldir said gazing out over the forest, where a tree stood taller then the rest. "Realm of the Lord Celeborn and of Galadriel, Lady of Light."
EPOV
Caras Galadhon was beautiful. The golden trees were tall and thick; their golden, brown leaves flittered around us. I watched as Bella gracefully followed the Elf named Haldir, I didn't trust him, but then I didn't trust any of the other Elves who lived in these woods, even though Bella seemed unphased by it. The words that that entrancing female voice had said still echoed in my mind.
You have caused more suffering and pain then you'll ever know…
I still couldn't figure out where that voice had come from, I couldn't here any ones thoughts, so where had that voice come from?
In the blue glow of the moonlit night, we climbed a twisting stair case which spiraled upwards around the trunk of a tree, we past glimmering lights of silver and blue. Far above us, the silhouetted shapes of the shadowy tree-branches loom. We passed numerous platforms; we come to a great palace in the trees, lit with silvery lights. We gathered before the arch and Haldir stepped to one side. A glowing couple, hand in hand, descend the stairs slowly and gracefully to meet us. I stared in awe, they were beautiful. I presumed they were Lord Celeborn and Lady Galadriel.
"The Enemy knows you have entered here. What hope you had in secrecy is now gone." Celeborn said. "Sixteen there are here, yet seventeen there were, set out from Rivendell. Tell me, where is Gandalf?"
Galadriel's eyes flickered over us all.
"For I much desire to speak with him…" Celeborn said. "I can no longer see him from afar."
"Gandalf the Grey did not pass the borders of this land." Galadriel said slowly. I suddenly released that she was the one that invaded my mind. "He has fallen into shadow."
"He was taken by both Shadow and Flame: a Balrog of Morgoth." Legolas said his voice filled with grief. "For we went needlessly into the net of Moria"
"Needless were none of the deeds of Gandalf in life. We do not yet know his whole purpose." She glanced at Gimli, who had hung his head in shame. "Do not let the great emptiness of Khazad-dûm fill your heart, Gimli, son of Glóin. For the world has grown full of peril. And in all lands, love is now mingled with grief." She turned her piercing blue eyes on to Boromir, who looked away.
"What now becomes of this Fellowship? Without Gandalf, hope is lost." Celeborn said.
"The quest stands upon the edge of a knife. Stray but a little and it will fail to the ruin of all." Galadriel said glancing over at Boromir again. "Yet hope remains while the company is true." She smiled slightly at Sam and glanced over at my family and my self. "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Go now and rest for you are weary with sorrow and much toil. Tonight you will sleep in peace..."
You, Edward Masen, I will summon later, there is much we must discus concerning my granddaughter…
BPOV
I sat back against a tree trunk, gazing up at its branches. So much as happened, we all had lost so much. I heard the Elves of Lothlórien singing sadly. Tears slowly ran down my face. How could Gandalf be gone? It's just not possible.
"A Olórin i yaresse
Mentaner i Numeherui
Tírien i Rómenóri"
(Olórin who once was
Sent by the Lords of the West
To guard the Lands of the East)
"Melme nóren sina
núra ala
Eäro"
(Our love for this land
Is deeper than the deeps
Of the sea)
Edward come over and sat down beside me.
"What is it?" he whispered.
Everyone looked over at me, Legolas looked at me, I knew he had heard what the other Elves where singing as well as Aragorn. The others just thought they were singing and did not understand.
"A lament for Gandalf" Legolas said looking around slowly.
"What are they saying about him?" Alice asked quietly.
"I have not the heart to tell you. For me the grief is still too near."
"Maiaron i Oiosaila,
Manan elye etevanne
Nórie i malanelye?"
(Wisest of all Maiar,
What drove you to leave
That which you loved?)
"Ilfirin nairelma
ullume nucuvalme.
Nauva i nauva."
(Yet we will cast all away
Rather that submit.
What should be shall be.)
"I bet they don't mention his fireworks. There should be a verse about them." I heard Sam say, I glanced over to him, he got to his feet. "The finest rockets ever seen,
They burst in stars of blue and green…"
Snoring interrupted him, Gimli was fast asleep. If he'd been awake I would of glared at him.
"Or after thunder… silver showers…" Sam continued.
Gimli gave a rather loud snore, and Aragorn who was sat next to him turned and looked at the Dwarf, annoyed, and hits him to wake him. I smiled slightly.
"Came falling like a… rain of flowers…" Sam trailed off sitting back down. "Oh, that doesn't do them justice by a long road." He said sadly.
As I watch Aragorn walk over to Boromir, I heard more Elves singing mournfully.
"Ú-reniathach
i amar galen
I reniad lín ne môr, nuithannen."
"What are they saying?" Edward whispered sadly
"No more will you wander
The green fields of this earth
Your journey has ended in darkness." I whispered back, more tears falling from my eyes.
Edward reached up and wiped them away. "Tell me about Lothlórien?" he asked softly.
"If you answer some of my questions" I said forcefully. Edward hesitated before nodding.
I sighed "We are East of the Misty Mountains, beside the Siverlode which flows into the Great River Anduin, is the Golden Wood, or Lothlórien as you know it, the heart of Elvendom in Middle-earth. The Elves of Lothlórien are Wood Elves, like the Elves of Mirkwood which is where Legolas is from, it's beautiful there and the Elves here can pass through the wood quickly and quietly and with their magical grey cloaks they are virtually invisible. The Lothlórien Elves live high above the ground as you know on platforms built amongst the towering mallorn trees, they're said to be the most beautiful trees in Middle-earth." I paused and picked up a white flower. "And on the forest floor grow beautiful star-shaped flowers, named Elanor and Niphredil, with pale white petals. The silver trunked mallorns grow up into a canopy of golden leaves and in the branches the Elves build flets, their high houses. In the centre of Lothlórien grows the mightiest mallorn in the city of Caras Galadhon, this is where the Lord Celeborn and the Lady Galadriel's royal hall can be found, high off the ground"
I sighed again, "Now will you tell me why you l-left?" I asked, the hole in my heart opened painfully, I was glad Jasper couldn't feel my emotions. I looked away from Edward. "And Don't tell me it was because you stopped loving me!" I glared at him, before he could answer. "You don't just wake up and stop loving someone!" Hot angry tears fell down my face. "And the way you've been acting the passed couple of days…" I trailed off not knowing what else to say.
"Bella let me explain-"
"Oh, please do! I'm dying to know why you suddenly decided to rip my heart out!" I snapped jumping to my feet.
"Bella I left to protect you!" He said also jumping to his feet. "I never stopped loving you!"
"Oh I don't doubt you stopped loving me but you expect to believe that you left to protect me! If you wanted to protect me, then where were you when Victoria was trying to kill me?! Where were you when the wolves had to stop Laurent from killing me!" I screeched, scaring some poor birds from the trees, and some Elves to.
EPOV
"But you still don't leave the person you love!" Bella screamed, then turned and ran away from me, disappearing through the trees. I sank to the ground, my head in my hands. I didn't know what to do.
I didn't know how long I sat there, my family tried to comfort me but they didn't know what to say. I just sat there in silence. Soon the others, except myself and my family, were asleep.
Edward…
I jerked my head up. Galadriel glided through the trees, I followed her. She descended some leaf covered steps. She filled a pitcher with water from a stream as I walked slowly down the steps, looking at an ornate stand which had a shallow silver basin upon it.
"Will you look into the mirror?" she asked stepping closer to the basin.
"What will I see?" I asked her looking up from the silvery basin.
"Even the wisest cannot tell. For the mirror…shows many things…" Galadriel pour the water in to the basin. "…things that were…things that are…and some things" she stopped and placed the pitcher down. "…that have not yet come to pass."
I looked at her before I lent of and looked into the water filled basin. Images flashed before my eyes.
Bella and I were sat in our meadow back on Earth. She was trailing patterns on my arm.
The image shifted.
It was Bella's birthday, she was opening her present and got a paper cut. Jasper lunged for her.
The image changed again.
We were on some sort of battle field, blood covered bodies were scattered everywhere, I was shouting Bella's name as I searched the bodies. I spotted her and ran over, I held her in my arms, her face was cut, and covered in dirt. She opened her eyes, barely.
"Edward…" she choked out.
"Shhh…Bella…shhh…don't talk, save your energy" I whispered, dry sobs shaking through my body.
"Edward…" She tried again. "I…love…you…" tears fell from her eyes. She slowly reached up and place a hand on my cheek. I placed my hand over hers.
"I love you too" I whispered placing a kiss on her cold forehead. Bella gave one last breath, closed her eyes and became limp. I gave a roar of pain…
"Noooooo!" I roared and the image disappeared.
"I know what you saw, for it is also in my mind" Galadriel said "If Frodo should fail, it will not only be Bella that dies…and if Sauron gains full power he will not only destroy this world…but yours as well…"
"What must I do? How will I stop this from happening?" I asked shakily. I would not let Bella die!
"The Fellowship is breaking, one will try and take the Ring from Frodo…the time has come, Edward for you to chose between what is right…and what is easy…"
BPOV
I slowly made my way back to the others, I was ashamed that I had run off like that. I sat down not looking at the Cullen's, and closed my eyes wishing for sleep to suck me into the abyss…
