Hello everybody!
Oh, I'm aware of the fact that I put a few too many songs in the last chapter…I got carried away, so sorry.
I don't own.
And I will put a few songs in various places in this chapter.
An author's note I put in at some point tells you all that when I put in songs it's because I'm suffering from a disease called Writers Block.
My main objective is to give you something to read and hope that you like the humorous songs I listen to on a daily basis.
By the way!
In the last chapter I said it was This Is What Rock-N-Roll Looks Like by Porcelain and the Tramps.
It's really This Is What Rock-N-Roll Looks Like by Porcelain Black (which is the same person in PATT, just a soloist) featuring Lil Wayne.
I don't own anything.
Lots of cursing in this chap!
Nikki's point of view
Ow!
Oh shit my head hurt like hell!
"Ugh! What the fuck did we do last night?" Casper groaned, looking at me.
"CASPER! Oh shit dude you grew! Why the fuck- how the! What the hell!" I pointed up at him, rubbing my eyes to make sure I wasn't seeing things.
"Nikki, this isn't the time to be yourself. You're on the floor." He moaned when he came eye to eye with the sun.
"Oh… come on, I'm hungry…" I stood up and looked at what I was wearing.
"We need to change…" Casper grumbled, tearing his shirt off.
Changing into simpler clothes, I said, "Where is Legolas? I thought we shared a room with him…"
"Dunno. Maybe he's already down there. Hey, wear something warm, look!" Casper pointed to the window.
Whiteness…
Holy fucking kaboodle!
It was snowing!
"Casper it's snowing!" I happily jumped up and down.
He nodded and gave a sarcastic "Mmm".
I pulled on a thick long sleeved gray undershirt and a regular over tunic that was white silver ish ness, black leggings, and tall knee-length black boots.
The boots weren't like my leather ones; they were soft and slip on.
"Come on, Nixs, I wanna eat."
We ran-no, hauled our asses- down the corridors, down the dreadful winding stairs-that I kept tripping whilst going down-, and down into the large dining room.
We karate kicked the double doors open and made dramatic entrance.
"GUESS WHO'S BACK FROM OUR ROOM? US!" I threw myself towards Legolas, and kissed him.
"Thanks a heap for staying with us…" I said between kisses.
"I wanted to let you sleep, love. Now eat." He started piling my plate with food; Thranduil doing the same for Casper.
We, Casper and I, I mean, exchanged looks.
Not seconds later we made a dent in the mountain of…Elvish food.
This shit was amazing!
"Legolas, I wanna go outside and play in the snow!" I whined, finally finished with my food.
He choked on some of his wine and looked at me, "You…want…to…play…in…the…snow…."
"Yeah! Come on!" I grabbed his hand and dragged him outside.
"What do you want to do, beloved?" he asked, sitting down at the base of a tree.
I smiled, and sat down about 15 feet in front of him.
-Legolas-
She smiled her evil smile and sat down a few paces in front of me.
"Nikki, love, do you-," I was interrupted by a ball of snow colliding with my face.
She was laughing uncontrollably, and was rolling around.
As fast as I could, I grabbed her up in my arms, and tucked her under my arm.
"Ruhr ro!" she yelped.
She had good reason to be afraid.
I casually walked over to a pile that was near a small stream knowing it would be frostier than the other piles in the sense that it was by extremely cold water on the verge of turning into ice.
"No! No! Please, Legolas! Please! NOOOOO!" I had dunked her in the ice, and she let out a blood curdling scream.
Stumbling backwards, she slipped and fell into the water.
A small crack was heard which meant that the stream was beginning to freeze over.
"OH! Nikki!" I scrambled to help the shivering little girl.
She had hot tears streaming down her pink rosy frostbitten cheeks and dripped off of her Pippin like nose.
Wrapping my semi dry cloak around her, I lifted her up and held her bridal style.
"L-L-Leg'las…" she moaned, burring her head in my neck for warmth, comfort, and to hide her embarrassment.
"Shhh. Ohhh, I bet you're sick. Aragorn is going to be very displeased with me if I return with one of his beloveds sick…" I groaned, throwing my head back.
"I-It's alright, Leg'las," she sputtered, "The plan's origin came from me…"
"Hush, young one." I ordered, walking to the doors and pushing them open.
I ignored the remarks, questions, and any other distractions.
Bringing her to our room, I walked straight to the bathing chamber.
Eventually I had it steaming, and turning the whole area muggy.
"Nikki?"
"Y-yes?" she answered me meekly.
"Can you remove your clothes yourself? Or do you need my help. I would never look at you in any…for lack of better words, bad way…"
"You do it." Her hoarse voice echoed.
Whimpering, I slid off her boots, tunic, undershirt, some strange looking thing, and her leggings.
Her body has always been pale, but this was horrible!
Skin was almost blue; her lips were…purple, and her eyes looked glazed over.
Lifting her up carefully, I brought her to the tile tub.
"I cannot put you in right away, so hold on for a moment."
It was true; you don't put a freezing cold person in immensely hot water.
Well, this wasn't immensely hot, but it would be to her.
Dipping a towel into the water, I began gently and slowly stroking her with it.
Once I had covered her entire body, I gently put her in the tub.
I stripped myself of my clothes, and got in with her.
Mainly to help her in case she slides or needs help staying put.
"Nikki, I am so sorry…" I whispered, kissing her cheek.
"Not your fault."
"Oh how horrid to be sick during the Yule's season!" she must be upset.
"Yule's Day, like Christmas?" she asked, turning to look at me.
"Yes, little one. Hm, seems you're feeling better. You have some color back. Anyway, there are six days. You will spend three here and three with Aragorn. Tomorrow we will begin. And, if you don't go overboard and get drunk, you will be asked to sing some more 'modern day' songs." I explained, grabbing the bottle to wash her hair with.
"Awesome. I promise, and this goes for Cass too, that we won't do any…inappropriate songs either. Cross my heart and hope to die." She did some strange gestures with her hands.
"Okay. So what are you going to sing?" I poured the strong minty smelling green liquid into her angel like hair.
"…I have no clue. But, hey, you're gonna like 'em all!" she giggled, leaning on me again.
"I am sure I will…" I droned, rubbing my hands in her hair.
"Hey I just realized somethin'!" she jumped suddenly.
"Yes?" I wiped some of the bubbles out of my eye.
"…I'm naked…" she looked at herself then me.
"…You are, too…" she sung out a laugh.
"I did not want you to go under. I meant what I said about only helping you." Did she think something else?
"I know. I just thought it was funny you didn't try anything." She said, sliding down on me.
I went rigid.
My whole body throbbed and I shifted a little, and let out a soft groan.
"I KNEW IT!" I was standing now, pointing at me.
"Nikki please sit back down." I pleaded, placing my hands on my lap.
"Haha!" she laughed, but was cut off by a stream of coughs.
Reaching out for my towel, I stood my back to her.
A sharp fiery pain ripped through me.
Did she just slap my…
Oh she did!
Quickly wrapping the fluffy green towel around my waist, I snatched the teal one, and turned to her.
"…My hand print is on your butt…" sniggered a very happy elfling.
"Yes, I am aware. Not come here." I wrapped her up, but it was a bit too long…
It pooled around her ankles, "I think it is a little…big, Legoland."
Rolling my eyes, I lifted her into my arms and walked to her closet.
"I don't think I want you walking around at all today…" I told her over my shoulder while looking for something for her to wear.
"Noooo! I want to explore the parts of Mirkwood I haven't. At least the rest of the palace," She complained.
It wouldn't hurt as long as I was with her…
"Alright, you can. But you are to be with me the entire time. And, no, you cannot bother Alyan, he will be busy preparing." I warned.
She shrugged and I changed her into her blue-green long sleeved shirt and grey leggings.
-Nikki-
The rest of the day was boring!
All I did was meet people and smile all day, and also, on top of that, have Legolas carry me around on his mother fucking hip!
By nighttime, I had met every god damn elf in Mirkwood.
I nestled myself into the thick quilt, Legolas holding onto me, and Casper was on the other side of Legolas.
Casper too was held on Legolas's other hip.
I quickly fell into a deep sleep…
-Next day. That evening during…party, feast….thingy-
The food was better than the food I had that other time!
After downing all the wine I could drink-or what Legolas would allow- I was up to sing.
"YES! NIKKI IS UP TO SING!" Feredir exclaimed, getting all eyes on me.
I smiled, and waved.
"I know last time I went a little overboard, but I drank, like, five glasses too many…" I said.
"My songs were more upbeat, I promise, I will do some more of those kinds of songs after I sing my favorite ones."
Looking at Casper, who didn't want to sing right now, I began…
'We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
i need your grace
to remind me
to find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?'
Tears brimmed my eyes.
"My father had dedicated that song to my mother a few days before they died…" I said, wiping the tears away.
Some of my audience had tears in their eyes, other were dancing with their mates.
Casper was crying softly on Legolas's shoulder after he heard what I said.
"Okay! Okay! I have a better song!"

"THAT WAS FOR ALL MY INSANE FRIENDS OUT THERE! AND THAT IS A COMPLIMENT!" I screamed.
Most of the people were laughing, but Legolas had a look of horror on his face.
I sat back down and resumed my eating and talking.
~I am skipping to the next night. A/n, I'm going to this for tonight and tomorrow night. Mainly just songs to pass the time~
I bounded up to the stage like thing and whistled for all the giddy elves attention.
"Hola! So I am singing some amazingly awesome songs tonight and tomorrow night. Enjoy!" I rushed, eager for their praises.
'Dead girl's dance they burn and twirl
Witch hunt
Witch cunt burn this girl
Dead girl's dance they burn and twirl
Witch hunt
Witch cunt burn this girl
Dead girl's dance they burn...-
I'm running out of air
Theres a carnival in the graveyard tonight
With the clouds that fall with poison
And they fall on my skin making tiny holes
Erasing my legacy
Nothing hurts
Nothings right
I am nothing
Turning to the left
I get on a ride
And the ride's dark..
And drive nazi cars..
And I am no longer afraid
Because I've held on so tight
That I've crushed them...
I've crushed them
It covers me
And I try to find comfort in the darkness
Where I am no longer your misanthropic majesty
With only one match...And one chance to burn...
Only one..
I'M BURNING
I'M FUCKING BURNING
Dead Girl's Dance They burn they twirl
Witch hunt
Witch cunt burn this girl'
Hahahahahahah!
That was AMAZING!
Most of the smaller elfling coward behind their parents.
The 'teenage' elves loved it.
And the adults were horrified.
"Alright, alright! Sorry, I love that song! Here's a better one."
'It started with a low light
Next thing I knew they ripped me from my bed
And then they took my blood type
It left a strange impression in my head
You know that I was hoping
That I could leave this star-crossed world behind
But when they cut me open
I guess that changed my mind
And you know I might
Have just flown too far from the floor this time
'Cause they calling me by my name
And they're zipping white light beams
Disregarding bombs and satellites
And that was the turning point
That was one lonely night
The song maker says, "It ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says, "Everybody look down"
It's all in your mind
Well, now I'm back at home and
I'm looking forward to this life I live
You know it's gonna haunt me
So hesitation to this life I give
You think you might cross over
You're caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
You better look it over
Before you make that leap
And you know I'm fine
But I hear those voices at night
Sometimes they justify my claim
And the public don't dwell on my transmission
'Cause it wasn't televised
But it was the turning point
Oh what a lonely night
The song maker says, "It ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says, "Everybody look down"
It's all in your mind
The song maker says, "It ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says, "Everybody look down"
It's all in your mind
My global position systems are vocally addressed
They say the Nile used to run from east to west
They say the Nile used to run from east to west
I'm fine but I hear those voices at night sometimes
The song maker says, "It ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says, "Everybody look down"
It's all in your mind
The song maker says, "It ain't so bad"
The dream maker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says, "Everybody look down"
It's all in your mind
It's all in my mind
It's all in my mind'
I laughed, feeling giddy and happy after singing that.
They started chanting more, and I gave into them.
"Wait! I wanna sing too!" Casper jumped up and laughed.
All we had to do was look at each other.
'Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh
Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh
Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh
Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh
I've got this gun, to your head
I've got blood, on these hands
I'll be your eternal, never ending
I'll be the end of your beginning
I'm the battle to your every war
I'm the first fist, of everything torn
I've got no room in this heart
Gonna tear you apart
Death to your heart
And I'll rip it apart
You've come undone
You're the weakest one
Death to your heart
and I'll rip it apart (Rip it apart)
You've come undone
You're the weakest
The weakest one
Infected with deception
Destruction is my, obsession
I'll feed off your sweet suffering
Your confession, is my sweet crime
You've fed me up with your lies
Thought I knew you deep inside
So when I take this razor to your neck
I'll cut out all your fucking regrets
I've got no room in this heart
Gonna tear you apart
Death to your heart
And I'll rip it apart
You've come undone
You're the weakest one
Death to your heart
and I'll rip it apart (Rip it apart)
You've come undone
You're the weakest
The weakest one
Tear apart what is left
Your blood is what I taste
Here I am in the flesh
Meet your killer in the face
HaHaHa, HeHeHe
What a pretty little sight
Now you're gone, it's too late
We will never be the same
Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh
Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh
Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh (Rip it apart)
Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh
Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh
Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh
Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh (The weakest one)
Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh
Death to your little precious heart
This is the scene where you depart
No one will hear your finally words
I'm a life taker, I'm a heart breaker
Death to your heart
And I'll rip it apart
You've come undone
You're the weakest one
Death to your heart
and I'll rip it apart (Rip it apart)
You've come undone
You're the weakest
The weakest one'
You would think that the song was innocent.
No.
This song, if you haven't noticed, is about rape.
It is a good song, but hey.
Obviously no one noticed, they hooted and hollered.
I high fived my bro and walked off the stage.
-The next night. The last night-
I heaved a deep breath and walked up in front of everybody.
"Hello all. Well, as you know, this is my last night in Mirkwood. I promise I will visit as much as possible… But for now, just enjoy my songs!"
'Today I died
And I'm up in heaven
Looking down on the world
Ark angel number seven
I was sent to earth
With a mission to complete
My memories
Remain bittersweet
A messenger
With a double duty verse
It's my legacy,
My gift and my curse ...
Hold your head up high
They'll would kill to see you fail
Evil lurks in the shadows
Just waiting to prevail
Every sinner has a future
Every saint has a past
Gotta keep the torch burning
So the message will last
Like a phoenix rising up
From a pile of burning ashes
Can't give up
No matter how the haters try to trash us
I will use my voice
Like the world's my motherfucking classroom
Touching hearts, saving lives
Warding off the black doom
Come with me
And take my hand
I'll lead you to
A wonder land
A world that's free
Of hate and lies
Where beauty lives
And evil dies
Relax your mind
And close your eyes
Heaven's what
You visualize
My wings of gold
Kill all despair
Just trust in me
I'll take you there
I'LL TAKE YOU THERE!
THIS IS MY GIFT
And my curse
Till I'm dead in a hearse
My words will STAIN THIS FUCKING EARTH!
Until I'm free from this sex lust succubus nurse
I can't escape this wicked curse
Like a vamp to the neck
Like a wolf to the flesh
I'm curse I'm curse
I'm fucking dead
My gift my gift
The only thing left
I can't escape this wretched fate
Why do I wear myself down to nothing!
Would you let me widdle myself into something
Carving me down to the absolute bitterness
wipe away the jealousy I got nothing left
I'm chewing on what's left of my silent tongue
For holding it back from way to fucking long
I've been playing by the rules
I lost myself in the game
I fear the person I use to be
Will never be the same
Come with me
And take my hand
I'll lead you to
A wonder land
A world that's free
Of hate and lies
Where beauty lives
And evil dies
Relax your mind
and close your eyes
Heaven's what
You visualize
My wings of gold
Kill all despair
Just trust in me
I'll take you there
THIS IS MY GIFT
And my curse
Till I'm dead in a hearse
My words will STAIN THIS FUCKING EARTH!
Until I'm free from this sex lust succubus nurse
I can't escape this wicked curse
Like a vamp to the neck
Like a wolf to the flesh
I'm curse I'm curse
I'm fucking dead
My gift my gift
The only thing left
I can't escape this wretched fate
It all come back to you
Everything you put me through
It all come back to you
Everything you put me through
You can drag me to hell
You can curse me with spells
I'm damned
I'm damned
Like an angel that fell
My gift my gift
Sent from heaven above
Is meant to save
All the fans I love
THIS IS MY GIFT
And my curse
Till I'm dead in a hearse
My words will STAIN THIS FUCKING EARTH!
Until I'm free from this sex lust succubus nurse
I can't escape this wicked curse
Like a vamp to the neck
Like a wolf to the flesh
I'm curse I'm curse
I'm fucking dead
My gift my gift
The only thing left
I can't escape this wretched fate
You'll understand when I'm gone….'
That song got me choked up all the time.
I have no idea why.
Thinking up my next, and last, song, I felt tears fall down my cheeks.
"This is the last song you'll hear from me in a while. So I'm going to make it special."
'Made a wrong turn
once or twice.
Dug my way out,
blood and fire.
Bad decisions,
that's alright.
Welcome to my silly life.
Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood!
Miss "No way, It's all good", it didn't slow me down
Mistaken, always second guessing, underestimated!
Look, I'm still around...
Pretty pretty please!
Don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than,
Less than Perfect
Pretty pretty please
If you ever ever feel like you're nothing
You are Perfect to me!
You're so mean (Your so mean)
When you talk (When you talk) about yourself, you were wrong
Change the voices (Change the voices) in your head(In the head)
Make them like you instead
So complicated, look how happy you'll make it!
Filled with so much hatred... such a tired game
It's enough! I've done all I can think of
Chased down all my demons, I've seen you do the same.
Oh, pretty pretty please
Don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than
Less than Perfect
Pretty pretty please
If you ever ever feel like you're nothing
You are Perfect to me
The whole world's scared so I swallow the fear
The only thing I should be drinking is an ice cold beer
So cool in line, and we try try try,
But we try too hard and it's a waste of my time
Done looking for the critics, cause they're everywhere
They don't like my jeans, they don't get my hair
Exchange ourselves, and we do it all the time
Why do we do that? Why do I do that?
Why do I do that?
Yeah, oh, oh baby, pretty please!
Pretty pretty please,
Don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than
Less than perfect
Pretty pretty please
If you ever ever feel
Like you're nothing, you are Perfect to me Yeaaahhh...!
You are perfect, you're Perfect!
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you're nothing
You are Perfect to me
.'
People yelled out compliments and people were wishing me good luck on the ride back and all that good stuff.
Walking down the small staircase, I ran into Legolas's arms.
"I'm going to miss it here…" I mumbled into his chest.
"Yes. I will, too, love. And I have a feeling the five brothers you met will as well. Locien and Tirithion will for sure. They fell in love with you, or so Feredir told me." He snickered, burying his head in my hair.
"When do we leave?" I asked.
"They are preparing our horses. You can either ride with Casper, Glorfindel, or myself; but your cat form is out of the question. Come, we will wait outside." I followed him out.
"Oh, Nikki!" Locien's screamed out, chasing after me out the door.
"What is it?"
"I-I wanted to say- say goodbye…" he whispered.
"Vandatheil! Wait for me!" Tirithion ran up.
"I sure am going to miss you both…" again tears dripped down my face.
"Oh! Don't cry! We are venturing to Gondor in a week or so. We will see you then…" Tirithion wiped tears away.
"They fell in love with you, or so Feredir told me." Legolas's voice echoed.
Leaning forward, I kissed Locien on the cheek and Tirithion on the nose.
"Then I shall see you then!" I chirped, spun on my heel, and ran to Thranduil's waiting arms.
They had deadpanned looks on their faces and brushed their fingers across the area I kissed.
"Oh Legolas is going to have fun with you," Thranduil chuckled, "I love you, my youngest warrior. We will meet again soon."
He kissed my forehead and patted my butt while I walked away.
"Nikki, who are you riding with?" Legolas asked, petting lose strands of hair down.
"I wanna ride on…AROD!" I exclaimed, pointing in the trees.
A low howl was heard and he came trotting out of the brush.
"You can ride on me! I got a saddle!" always one to be happy and giddy, he showed me his black saddle embodied with silver patterns.
"I love you, Arod." I told him, looking deep into his yellow eyes and petting his long white fluffy fur.
"I love you too! Hey, hey, hey, come on and try out my new saddle. You can even chain a horse lead to the muzzle so it's like you're holding onto rein of a horse!" he rushed out.
Swear on my mother's grave, this wolf was on a sugar rush 24/7.
Non-stop laughter, jokes, playful barks, howls, and growls!
Lifting his huge head, he licked my Pippin-ish nose, and nuzzled my neck.
"GET ON!" he barked.
Giggling, I mounted him and looked at Legolas smugly.
"I'm good. You don't have to bother with me now. Hey, Arod, where is Zelda?"
"Rivendell, I think. She might have gone to visit Elrond and stuff. Something about helping him prepare for something…yeah, like I pay attention…" he joked.
And with that said, we set off for Gondor.
~ONCE THEY ARRIVED A DAY LATER~
"ADA!" Casper and I screamed, running to our ada's arm.
Aragorn kneeled down on one knee and grabbed us in a hug.
"We missed you…" I mumbled, breathing in his musky scent.
"I missed you two as well. Halbarad and Ridlyn really wanted to see you, Ridlyn especially. He was almost in tears when I told them you didn't come. He was so upset, in fact, that he got into trouble just for attention from Halbarad, why I don't know. I think because he was spending so much time with me and you weren't there to keep him company…"
"Ha! That is something Ridlyn would do." Casper chuckled, clucking his tongue.
Aragorn's smile faded some, and he had tears in his eyes.
"Nikki, Casper, the meeting was for a new evil that has corrupted the minds of some civilians. A group of men and some women are after you." He said, tears falling from his eyes freely.
"They want your blood for purposes I did not want to find out about. Those people only know your names as Arthion and Vandatheil as far as I know… think up names you want to be called from now on until they are rid of. Sage is involved in this, too. Your blood is basically a port key. The blood that flows within your veins has the ability to transport you to different places depending on whether or not you have a purpose in that specific era. You must be extremely careful and not trust anyone but the ones you know of now. Please listen to me. Halbarad and Ridlyn are on their way here. Ridlyn is also important. He is your friend and if they get their hands on him…they will torture him until he gives all the information he knows about you both. Ridlyn is stubborn and won't say anything, you know that, but that stubbornness can kill him. He will be changing his name as well…"
I was frozen with shock and so was Casper.
"S-So we are in danger of being killed all the time because power thirsty assholes are after our blood? Well that's normal…" Casper said.
"Why is it always us? What did we do?" I questioned.
"Its cuz we're that awesome!" a familiar males voice laughed.
"RIDLYN!" I spun and raced to him.
"NIKKI!"
"RIDLYN!"
"CASPER!"
"You guys are IDIOTS! Don't scream your names like that!" Sage appeared, narrowing her eyes.
"Think up new names. I have mine. It is Alice. You remember my mom right, Nikki? B-before she passed away…" Sage never said her mother died, she said she "passed away".
I thought it was sweet.
"Aw, Sa- Alice. I bet your mom would be overjoyed that her daughter changed her name into hers so that a group of savage people won't track her down and kill her to use her port key blood to their advantage…" I laughed.
"Shut the hell up. You three need to think of names pronto."
"Oh-um, I was-was wondering if you could think up a name from your time… for me" Ridlyn turned red in the face.
"I don't think that is such a good idea. I mean, you would all have strange names so it would be like a big sign pointing at you saying "LOOK WE HAVE THE PORT KEY BLOOD!" Alice is a name from here so it's okay…" Sage said.
"I agree. Think up some Elvish names because you are elves and that would seem a little more…natural…" Aragorn said.
"Well we'll think up names from our time and translate them into Elvish…" Casper told us, turning our group of three into a weird triangle formation.
"DAMON! He looks like a Damon…" I exclaimed, pointing.
"Sadron…" Legolas said. (Sahd-ronn like Ron from Harry Potter…then 'sad)
"Coolio! Me next!" Casper laughed.
"SETH!" I screamed, jumping up and down.
"I do not know how to say that one…" Legolas admitted.
"It would be Cilmion. Pronounced like "kill" and then "me" and "on"…." I explained.
"I actually read that on the internet… I went on "Elvish Translator" and typed in my ex boyfriends name."
"You named me after your ex boyfriend! What a great sister…" Casp- Seth complained.
"You next, little one," Aragorn said, smirking.
"Oh I have mine. Asher. You can call me Ash…"
"Nikki, Asher in Elvish is Alyan." Legolas held back laughs.
"Don't call me Alyan. Call me Asher or Ash. Asher was a boy I met while we fought in Helms Deep. He died, sadly." I held back tears.
"Well. I love it!" Sage exclaimed with mock enthusiasm and walked away.
"She's moody. As you can see by her stomach, she is also pregnant." I said to Sadron.
He nodded.
"Come on, children, it is beginning to snow again…" Halbarad said his first words since they got here.
Walking in, we found the inside of the palace decorated even more beautifully than in Mirkwood.
"Our young ones have returned!" a man hollered, pointing at us.
I blushed and hid my face in Cilmion's shoulder.
"Sing for us! Or tell us about Mirkwood! We have all missed you dearly!" a woman clapped her hands together expectedly.
"I have a song and I want to tell you about Mirkwood. But before that, I want to say, we have had some...issues involving dangerous things. From now on I will be Asher or Ash, Casper will be Cilmion and Ridlyn will be Sadron. Please, I ask that you do not make the mistake of calling us our former names. IT IS A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH PEOPLE! Alright, I got the best song ever, alright you ready for this!"
'Ooh…oooohhhh
Ooh oooohhhh
Ooh oooohhhhh
Oohh ooohhh
Landlords knocking at my door
Cussing me out
Got laid off my job the night before
Can't figure how I'm gonna fix tomorrow away
If yesterday's still a mess
Can you tell me what's the point man
It all seems meaningless
I wish that I could step away and breathe
This world's trying to swallow me
Clear away the clouds inside my head
Somebody just tell me
That's its ok now
What are you worried about
Got my dreams
Got my life
Got my love
Got my friends, got the sunshine above
Why am I making this hard on myself
When there are so many beautiful reasons I have to be happy
People lie, people hide, people cry, people fight
And they don't know why
If fear is all that we should fear
Then what are we so afraid of
Cause fear is only in our heads
Someone please say
That it's ok now
What are you worried about
Got my dreams
Got my life
Got my love
Got my friends
Got the sunshine above
Why am I making this hard on myself
When there are so many reasons I have to be happy
Any day I'll go bad thinking bad
Everyone is against me
And the world wants to fight me
Preparing to battle an enemy unseem
During my stressing
I'm blinded to the lesson
That could be a blessing
If I'd be confessing that the enemy
I'm trying to beat is hiding inside of me
But it's ok now
What are you worried about
Got my dreams
Got my life
Got my love
Got my friends
Got the sunshine above
Why am I making this hard on myself
When there are so many beautiful reasons I have to be happy
Keep your grind on girl
It's your life
It's your world
Keep your grind on girl
It's your life
It's your world
Got my dreams
Got my life
Got my love
Got my friends
Got the sunshine above
Why am I making this hard on myself
When there are so many reasons I have to be happy…'
"The reason I sang that was, well, with everything going on in my life-and what went on too- I am still happy!" I told everybody.
Instead of getting screams I got a lot of verbal stuff.
So many people were crying with tears of joy and laughing.
"I can honestly say that is my favorite song by you, Asher…" Aragorn's voice said from behind me.
His words were thick with tears he was holding back.
Turning around I hugged him.
We were interrupted, though.
Screams broke out.
Not screams of joy, screams of terror.
The doors were banged on repeatedly and they eventually broke.
"They found us. CASPER, RIDLYN, SAGE!" Aragorn yelled.
"What about our other names?"
"That doesn't matter. We have to get rid of them before we use them."
I didn't understand, but I didn't question.
He knew what he was talking about.
"Casper, Ridlyn, get the girls out of here. Now." Aragorn commanded, unsheathing the sword he never left behind.
"We'll get the dragons. I'll take Ridlyn, you take Sage." Casper said.
"We'll use Zero and your dragon?" I asked to clarify.
"Yes. Zero and Syfar. Let go!"
We ran as fast as we could.
Sage wasn't big enough to be slowed down, so that was good.
Two mighty roars were heard.
"HURRY! GET THOSE FOUR!" the leader of all that is evil screamed.
Finally making it outside, we mounted our waiting dragons.
"FLY!" I screamed at them for not moving fast enough.
Angry roars were heard from Tiberias and Thesilis as they darted to the enemy.
"They will keep them distracted for now." Syfar told us.
"Maybe not!" Sage's shrill voice echoed as she pointed down.
The four men that chased us out were on these weird lizard creatures.
They were actually jumbo lizards!
"Shit!" I hissed.
Arrow after arrow flew at us.
"Duck, Sage!" I ordered, gripping Zero's reins tighter.
"Zigzag." I said to Casper, who nodded.
Jerking the reins left to right and Casper doing the opposite: right to left, we crossed over each other, succeeding in dodging the arrows.
"AHHHHH!" Casper let out a scream.
My blood turned cold, and I glanced at him.
His eyes shut and he had an arrow embedded in his side.
"No…" I whispered, watching him fall.
"CASPER!" I screamed, his body disappearing into the fog below.
No.
