disclaimer: I own nothing, so there.
authors blog: because of her formal name, Serenity's nickname will be Serena. But all the other's names' will be the original japanese names. okay, on with the story!
Chapter 1
'Don't forget, darling, you must do everything within your power to prevent Sauron from getting the ring. I love you, my daughter.'
Serenity recalled her mothers' words as she descended to middle earth using the moons' transportational link with the earth. Everything was fine, until, unexpectedly, the link was destroyed, and the princess started to fall at an alarming speed with a scream. Unsure if she would survive the impact, she squeezed her eyes shut and prayed that she landed in water or on something soft to break her fall. She wasn't counting on that soft something to be a person, however.
***
It was around dusk, and the remaining three men of the Fellowship were packing their things after giving Boromir his honorable funeral over the falls. Aragorn had said to pack light, so Gimli was doing his best at narrowing down the odds and ends in his bag. Legolas and Aragorn were discussing easier and less conspicuous ways of rescuing Mary and Pippin.
The forest was peacefully quiet, and the birds' songs were the only sounds heard. Until a terrified scream echoed throughout the area. Before anyone could even stand, Gimli was crushed under something. Legolas and Aragorn jumped up in surprise and rushed to their companions' side. Further inspection showed that the group had been ambushed, not by a what, but a whom.
The person groaned, and Gimli struggled to get out from under his would-be- attacker. When he was finally free, he pulled out his ax, and prepared to cut whoever it was into little tiny pieces. He halted, however, at the sight of a young girl lying in an unconscious heap where he was about to strike.
"What in the bloody-" He exclaimed, thoroughly baffled. How could a young thing like her pack such a wallop?
"I'm not sure, Gimli." Aragorn replied. Legolas stared at the girl in wonder. He'd never seen someone so beautiful.
"Well, whoever she is, we must tend to her at once in case she's hurt." Aragorn said finally. He picked the girl up, and brought her closer to the camp fire. Legolas scrambled to get some herbs and bandages just in case, earning himself an odd look from both Gimli and Aragorn. Since when was this elf- nay, ANY elf- ungraceful??
"Hey, I think she's waking up." Gimli said, drawing Aragorn's attention back to the girl. Legolas rushed forward and took the girl into his own arms, startling Aragorn. Sure enough, her eyelids started to flutter, and then they opened fully. She tried to sit up, but a sharp pain in her head caused her to fall back to Legolas' lap.
"My lady, are you alright?" Legolas asked, his eyebrows knit together in concern. The girl once again tried to sit up, and this time she succeeded.
"W- where am I?" She asked looking around with a confused look on her face. The three men exchanged looks, then looked back at the girl.
"We're at the border of Mordor, miss.?" Aragorn replied, indicating for her to give her name.
"Oh, my name is.is. I can't remember. I only remember the name. Serena." She said as her eyes started to well up with tears. Legolas looked at Aragorn, distressed, and tried to comfort her. He brushed the hair away from her face, and gasped when he saw a small crescent moon right in the middle of her forehead. He quickly pulled away and stood up, dumping Serena unceremoniously on the ground.
"Who are you?" He hissed, eyes narrowed. Aragorn and Gimli looked at Legolas in surprise at his odd behavior. Serena looked up at him, fear and confusion written across her face. That was when the other two men could see the mark on her forehead.
"I told you, I can't remember. I can't remember anything from before now. W- why? What's wrong?" She asked, her voice wavering a bit. Gimli looked down at her with a sneer on his mouth, and once again produced his ax. Serena watched in horror as Aragorn and Legolas both drew their weapons.
"What's going on? Please, somebody answer me!" Serena cried out as tears started to fall from her eyes. Nobody moved to comfort her. "Why won't you answer me?!" Again, she got no answer. Finding nothing better to do, she stood and ran to the water's edge. She peered into the water at her reflection, and saw the crescent moon. She reached up to touch it when a blinding light surrounded her.
Legolas went to run to her aid, but Aragorn held him back. When the light was gone, Serena was still there, but wearing a long white gown instead of the traveling breeches she wore before. She stood, and faced the men, sudden recognition in her eyes.
"The Fellowship. Finally I've found you. I am Princess Serenity, daughter of Queen Selenity of the Moon Kingdom. I've been sent here by my mother to aid you in the destruction of the One Ring." Serena said in a voice that commanded utmost respect and obedience. In her hand, she held a small silver crystal.
This gave Legolas time to get a good eyeful of Serena. She had long golden silver hair that was done up in a sort of pigtails on top of her head with small buns and then the rest of her hair fell free to her knees. She had cerulean blue silver eyes, and looked to be still a teenager, but her eyes said differently.
They held wisdom and knowledge from times long past, but still held the innocence and youth that had led the Fellowship to think of her as just a girl. Apparently this 'girl' was a young woman. And a most beautiful one at that. As the men scrutinized Serena, she did the same to them.
Her gaze was on Legolas for quite a bit longer than it was on the other two, and when she looked up, he caught her eyes and held her there. He then did the most unexpected thing; he walked to Serena, knelt down and offered her his sword.
"My Lady, we mean you no harm. Please accept my sword and offer to protect you. It has been a while since the Lunarians have paid Middle Earth a visit. We feel greatly honored that you have chosen our party to conjoin with." Legolas stayed as he was, with his head down until he heard a soft chuckle.
"Really, Greenleaf, it hasn't been THAT long. Only a few decades. Don't tell me that you've forgotten sweet little Serrie already!" Serena exclaimed as she hauled Legolas to his feet. Aragorn and Gimli looked on, baffled at the site if this girl picking someone up who was twice her weight without even trying.
Legolas gaped at her in astonishment before yelling and swallowing the girl in a hug. Aragorn's and Gimli's jaws dropped and looked at each other in confusion, then back at the two oblivious blondes.
".huh.?"
*** Yes, it's a little ooc, but oh well. Hope you liked it! I'll start working on chappy 2 asap!!
