"Elrond!" I shouted as I stalked across the freezing courtyard. I ignored the look my backwards baseball hat and nightgown were getting. I shoved my way past the gathering of elf ladies and used the knee of a statue to boost me up to the gazebo.

"You could have used the stairs." Fealin said dryly. I flicked him off.

"What is going on, Elrond?" I shouted angrily. "I know you know! I know it!"

"Calm down, Jack; you are hysterical." Elrond said calmly, sipping his coffee.

"In the past four days, I have been warped to another world, found that elves were real, blood tied myself to Josh, became a tool of your gods, got a tattoo burned into my skin, which by the way," I raised the healing scar to show them. "hurts like hell, and my eyes- my eyes have been turned gold." I gripped Elrond's collar. His cup shattered on the ground as I pulled him up to my face. "Gold, Elrond! Do you see the gold? Do you see it?"

"I see it." Elrond said uncomfortably, pulling away.

"And if that wasn't enough, I just got done having a conversation with trees! Trees, Elrond! Two of them! Great big ones! So yeah, I'm a little hysterical!" I nearly screamed.

"Muffin?" Estel asked, holding out his half-eaten muffin.

"I don't want any muffins, Joshua!" Estel winced.

"Jack, sit down." Glorfindel ordered sternly.

"Listen to me, you blonde asshole! I will not sit down until I get some answers!"

"If you sit down, I'll give them to you." Glorfindel said darkly, his silver eyes flashing in annoyance. Silver eyes...

"Wait a minute." I brought my face close to his, staring into his eyes. He scooted his chair back a few feet.

"That's right, I choose Telperion."

"Dude." I sat down. "So you saw them too?"

"Weren't they beautiful?" Glorfindel asked, a far away look in his eyes. "I can still remember their voices crying in pain as they faded into memory..."

"Yeah. Alright, what were those things?" I asked, swinging my chair around until it was backwards. I propped my elbows on the back.

"Trees of the Valar."

"Okay, that tells me squat."

"Jack, I can your legs." Elrond said quietly. A younger looking elf tilted his head my way. My nightgown was pulled up to past my knees with the way I was sitting. I readjusted myself so that I sat Indian-style on the chair.

"Alright then." Glorfindel sat back. "In the begining there was Eru, also called Iluvatar. The Ainur were born of his thoughts. The Valar are a type of the Ainur. He showed them a vision of Middle-earth." Elves of all ages where gathering around the gazebo, all listening attentive to the golden haired elf.

"When they saw the Children of Iluvatar, elves and men, they fell in love. And some of them, the greatest and fairest, came down to shape Arda, Middle- earth, for the Children. One of them went bad; his name is so terrible I shall not say it. He wanted all of Arda for his own. But Manwe, the god of the winds and king of the Valar, denied him and so the evil one started a war. When the Children did come, they had to unite to destroy him. They failed, but he was banished from Arda. The made two trees of light-"

I woke up to find Joshua staring down at me.

"You fell out of your chair."

"Yeah. I kinda noticed. Was hard not to."

"So you ask and then you sleep." Glorfindel said his face laced with disbelief.

"Well, it was long story. I got up to the part the hiding of the Undying lands." I said standing up and stretching.

"I'm impressed. Did you understand any of it?" Giggles from the elven ladies.

"Yes!" Good god this man was annoying! "God, you're a whore." Glorfindel choked on his muffin. I jumped off the gazebo. Estel ran to me and stopped me.

"Jack!" Estel cried his mouth agape.

"What?"

"What?! You don't go and call the reincarnation of one of the greatest elven kings ever a whore!" I paled slightly. I didn't know he was a king.

"So." I said regaining my composure and walked off.

"Where are you going?"

"To find some decent clothes."

"Erestor has returned! He has brought someone!" A guard shouted. A gray horse trotted into the horse. The elf, whom I guessed was Erestor swung down off the horse.

"Erestor! It is good to have you home!" Elrond shouted, running down the steps of the gazebo and grabbing Erestor's shoulders in his greeting. On the back of his horse a woman shifted around, staring around. It was Deputy Aya.

"Oh, fuck." Estel gave me a concerned look. He reached for my hand. I pulled away. "Oh, fuck, no." Aya spotted me. For a moment she stared at me, her mouth open in shock. Then she let out a cry. I was off, running towards the main gate. She jumped off Erestor's horse, landing in front of me.

"Stop!" Aya shouted. I bolted in the other direction, ducking to avoid her arms. I doubled back and zig-zagged through the pillars, trying to lose Aya. It didn't work.

"Jack, stop! This is resisting!" Aya shouted from behind me. I started for the gate again. I almost flew from my feet when Elrond's iron grip locked onto my arms. I elbowed him in the groin. His hands released. I took off again. Aya skidded to a stop in front of me.

"Don't do this, Jack."

"Don't make me hurt you, Deputy." I warned.

"You wouldn't. You're not a killer, Jack. You don't have the guts."

"I'm sure that's not what my family said."

"Listen, we can just sit down and talk about this. The rest of team will be here soon." I glanced back at the elves. Josh's eyes stared at me worriedly. I would have to plow through her. I took off. Aya was so surprised she barely had time to react. She spun out of the way, my punch going into air. I ran into the forest, a cursing Deputy following me.

With a burst of speed Aya overtook me, tackling me to the ground and pinning me there.

"Jack, don't be stupid. Let's talk. I need to know where we are. What's going on? Like I said before, I don't believe-" She let out a sharp cry as she was thrown off of me. I rolled onto my back. Josh had thrown her off, and he glared at her, breathing hard.

"Back off." He warned, helping me up. Fealin pressed his boot onto her back, keeping her down. She let out a whimper.

"Stop it, Fealin." He looked up in surprise. "Let her go." He stepped back and Aya jumped up. Breathing hard, she glared at me.

"Jack Templite." Aya said between puffs. "Tell me now, and answer me truthfully. Did you do it?" I looked away. "Shit. I was hoping you were going to say no." Aya sighed. A look of remorse appeared on her face. She brought out her cuffs.

"What are you going to do Deputy? Bring me down to the station?" I asked darkly. Blushing, she put the cuffs away.

"Why Jack? Why did you do it?" Aya asked. "Is it because of how he treated you?" I nodded.

"Jack, what's going on?" Estel asked. I glanced at him.

"Nothing, Estel."

"You lie horribly." Glorfindel said from behind me.

"I don't need any of your crap at the moment!" I growled at him. Glorfindel nodded and shut up. "Thank you!"

"Jack, you should have come to us. Was he hitting you?" I pursed my lips. "Oh, I can't blame you for what you did. Hell, I would've done it."

"Just shut up, Aya! You don't know what you're talking about! What happened was a reflex! I didn't mean it!"

"Of course you didn't, honey." Aya said softly, looking at me with pity in her eyes. I tore at my hair.

"Deputy! Damn't woman I failed him!"

"How?" Aya asked. "Listen, as soon as we get back civilization with the rest of the crew, the first thing we are going to do is-" She paused and looked around. "Find out what cult this is and then get a statement. If you tell us exactly what happened, maybe we can find a loop hole."

"I don't want your help. Besides, I don't think we can get home from here."

"What happened?" Elrond said in a commanding voice. I glanced at him, finding the need to answer him bubbling with in me. I bit my tongue. What the hell was this? Some sort of mind trick? Elrond repeated it. Aya answered him.

"She killed her father."
