Description: Lily always knew that she was different, but it will take a trip to middle earth to find out who she really is.

A walk to remember...(riviting isn't it? It's not a Mary Sue I promise. Give it a try wont you?)

Lily awoke sometime in the middle of the night when the moon was high and it's light washed over her face. She sat up and looked around the forest, she had completely lost all since of direction, she was so distraught she forgot all the tips she had been taught to find your way out if you were lost in the forest. Lily stood up, and started walking, which was probably a bad idea, but she didn't want to stay in the same spot for fear of wild animals.

Lily walked by the light of the moon, for what felt like hours, when she noticed an odd change in the forest. The air became thick and the trees seemed even more ancient than the woods she knew by the camp. She stopped and looked around "Now you've done it Lily, you've gotten your self lost," she muttered to herself. "Valor, I'm thirsty," she said and started walking, but then she stopped again and furrowed her brow "Valor? Where on Earth did that come from?" She chuckled to her self. "I've been reading to much Tolkien."

Soon a welcome sound interrupted her thoughts. She heard the sound of a trickling stream, she quickly made her way to the water. Once she got to the stream, she dropped to her knees and scooped the fresh water into her hands and drank. She was more thirsty than she thought, and she drank quiet a bit of water. She sat on the ground after she was satisfied. "I don't recall a stream being in the area of the camp. I must have ran father than I realized," Lily said aloud, with despair. Tears started trickling down her face.

A noise startled Lily, she looked around frantically and stood up. She heard the noise again, she didn't like it, it sound threatening, but she couldn't tell what it was. The noise was getting closer, it was more distinguishable, it was some sort of grunting. Lily's breath became heavy with fear. She tried to hide herself behind a tree as she heard voices.

"Eh...this was stupid...those elves will kill us for sure"

"Elves?" Lily thought

"Scared are we?" another voice spoke up. Their voices were harsh and unkind, evil almost.

Lily held her breath as these creatures came closer. She heard one sniffing the air

"What is it?" One asked

"I smell elf," the other replied.

Lily bit her lower lip, she wasn't an elf, but she was the only other creature in the area, that she was aware of. She prayed these things would keep going and not notice that she was there. She heard their foot steps getting closer, they were smelling her out, they would find her any second. She thought about running, but if she ran they might chase her, and she didn't know how fast these creatures ran. She was trembling. A voice rang out

"Over 'ere" it was one of the creatures.

They where almost on her, she looked around frantically. "What do I do?" she thought to her self. She closed her eyes, wishing she could just disappear. Lily could hear the breathing of theses creatures, it was heavy and it stunk. She opened her eyes and there standing in front of her was the most horrible looking things she had ever seen. It was an orc, hunched over slightly, his face was scarred and his skin was dark.

"'ello," he said with an evil grin.

Lily let out a yelp.

"What's a pretty little thing like you doing out all by your lonesome?" the other one ask with an evil cackle.

Lily was too frightened to speak. One of the orcs pulled out a knife.

"What should we do with 'er?"

"Take 'er, and hold 'er for ransom...get some gold out of it"

Lily's heart felt like it might stop, she was no elf, none of these supposed elves knew her. She wasn't even sure if this was all real. The orc with the knife stepped closer to her, and she let out a scream.

"Hush girlie or we'll slit your throat"

Lily couldn't let this happen she had to think quick she looked around, there were only two of them, and there was a gap between one of them and the tree. She ducked and darted, running as fast as her legs could carry her.

"Catch her, before she alerts the guards!"

"Guards of what?" Lily wondered as she ran.

The orcs ran after her, the one with the knife threw it, in hopes of hitting Lily. She let out a cry of pain and dropped to her knees, the knife had caught her in the side. She panted, and tears ran down her cheeks, this was it, she was going to die, it couldn't be a dream, they say you can't feel pain when you dream. Surely she would have woken up by now if it was a dream. She could hear the orcs getting closer.

Then she heard a familiar sound. The twang of a bow and the whizzing of an arrow. She felt the breeze of an arrow fly past her. The arrow hit it's target and there was a cry of agony, then another one was sent flying, and another cry of agony.

Lily's vision was becoming fuzzy but before she passed out she saw the blurry figure of a tall, slender, dark haired man. Then everything went black.



Note: ok, so it's not as long as the first but it's more exciting right?
