Chapter 21

The Fellowship Splits

That evening, they reached the Waterfall Lake. Mya took a moment to appreciate the beauty before going to help Boromir gather wood. As she walked, she came across Boromir having an argument with Frodo. Frodo disappeared and Boromir fell on his face. She ran up to make sure he was ok when he suddenly started sobbing.

"What have I done?" He asked, then shouted. "Frodo, please, come back! I'm sorry!" Mya reached him and he sobbed into her shoulder about what a fool he was. Her heart broke as she listened to the Man. Neither of them were paying attention to their surroundings, as they were suddenly surrounded by Orcs. Boromir and Mya were soon busy, fighting them off.

"What about Frodo?" Boromir asked, "for all we know, he is alone and outnumbered."

"I'll fight my way to Frodo, you go find Sam, Merry and Pip!" Mya said to him over the noise. Boromir grunted his acknowledgement as he decapitated an Orc heading for Mya's turned back. As she left him in the woods to search for an invisible Hobbit, Mya glanced back at Boromir. She couldn't explain the feeling she got that she would never see him again. Shaking off the foreboding feeling, she went to find Frodo.

Mya ran through the woods, following the sounds of fighting, knowing that news of Frodo would probably be there. She had no sooner gotten to the scene of the fight, to see Legolas, Gimli and Aragorn fighting off about thirty Orcs when a horn blasted through the air.

"The Horn of Gondor, Boromir calls for aid!" Legolas said, noting that Mya was still in one piece. Everyone there nodded their agreements and went in the direction of the sound, decimating the Orcs as they went. Mya had started using her fire spell again, to great effect.

However, when they found Boromir, they saw him lying on the ground, defeated. A large Orc-like creature was standing over him, with a bow pulled back, ready to kill him. Wandlessly, Mya knocked him back, while Aragorn went in to fight it. Aragorn fought the creature and won by decapitating it. They then when to assist Boromir.

"Leave it," he said, when Aragorn went to pull out the arrows. "They took the little ones and Fred. I'm so sorry, Lady Mya, I failed you and lost all my honor."

"No, Man of Gondor," Mya answered, formally. "You defended them with your life and have regained your honor."

"Frodo," Boromir said. "Where is Frodo?"

"I let Frodo go," Aragorn answered.

"Then you did what I could not," Boromir responded. He then looked Aragorn in the eyes. "Gondor..."

"I do not know what strength there is left in my blood," Aragorn said. "But I will not let the White City fall." Boromir nodded, satisfied.

"I would have followed you to the death My Brother," Boromir said, struggling to breath. "My Captain... My King." The life went out of his eyes and he knew no more. Mya let out a sob, leaning on Legolas for support. Aragorn reached out and closed his eyes.

"Be at peace, Son of Gondor." He murmured. They carried Boromir's body to the water's edge and removed the arrows. They then put him in a boat and pushed him over the edge of the waterfall. Mya watched with tears streaming down her face. She also saw Harry, George, Sam and Frodo pulling a boat ashore on the opposite side of the lake. Legolas also spotted it, for he grabbed a boat and went to push it into the water.

"Hurry," he said. "The others are on the Eastern shore." Aragorn sheathed his sword and said nothing, looking across the water with sorrow in his eyes. Mya, figuring what he was planning, grabbed her sack and put it on, getting ready. Legolas looked at them in disbelief, "you mean not to follow them?"

"Frodo's destiny is out of our hands," Mya said, sounding remarkably like her grandmother.

"Then it has all been in vain," Gimli grumbled. "The fellowship has failed."

"Not if we hold true to each other," Aragorn said. "We will not abandon Merry, Pip and Fred. Pack lightly." He tightened his wrist guard, looking at the three of them. "Let's hunt some Orc." Mya grinned and followed Aragon through the line of trees, not seeing the fleeting disappointment that mixed with excitement on Legolas' face as he too, joined in the hunt.
