The fellowship had stopped for the night on the bank of the river they were traveling on. Buffy was teaching Dawn new moves on the sword, that Buffy hadn't taught her yet, and Buffy was amazed at how fast she caught on and was wielding the sword almost like a pro. The fellowship kept their distance from Dawn, and would often throw glances toward her, and Buffy. Boromir had a great amount of distrust for Dawn and watched her more cautiously then the others. The hobbits manly Pippin and Merry had taken right up to Dawn and forgot about her being the key, which they didn't quite understand. When the two girls finally stopped they were both seated beside each other leaning up against a rock.
"So do you think Xander or anyone suspects that were gone?" Dawn wondered out loud.
"I dunno, they might just think we forgot to check in is all." Buffy said.
"Yea but wouldn't Giles call and ask over a hundred question and ask why you hadn't checked in?" Dawn asked.
Buffy shrugged and didn't answer. Silence fell between the two girls as night approached them. Dawn was growing bored and Buffy was thinking about weather or not they would ever go home. More importantly what would happen when they had completed their task, would they try and keep Dawn in this world?
Finally Dawn broke the silence. She had something she wanted to ask Buffy that had been nagging at her. "Buffy why were you so hostile toward the elf queen person?" She asked.
Buffy glanced at her. "I um wasn't," She said. 'Nice save Buffy.' She thought.
"Yeah you were because you were all glary at her and stuff." Dawn said.
"Well um I um you know Dawn you should get some sleep. Long day ahead of us tomorrow." She said.
"You're keeping something from me. Buffy what is it? Did Lady Galadriel say something to you that I should know about?" Dawn asked.
"Um.. No not exactly. It's not important ok." Buffy said.
"Then why won't you tell me?" Dawn asked looking at her sister expectantly.
Buffy muttered under her breath. "Because its none of your business." Buffy said. "Now get some sleep."
"Fine be that way. Just remember were in this together and we have to help each other Buffy. We can't keep things from each other." Dawn said before turning on her side to get some sleep.
Buffy rolled her eyes and turned her back to her sister. Buffy wrapped her arms around her self. She was starting to get homesick; she missed her friends and her home. She wanted to go home, she didn't want to be here in Middle Earth with all these weird people and sleeping on the dirty ground Buffy cringed at that thought.

Dawn laid there eyes open and looking toward the forest, she knew Buffy was asleep, but she couldn't find it in her to get to sleep, she just wasn't tired. She knew Buffy was keeping something from her, something big that she should know about. She sighed and wrapped her arms around her self as she tried once again to go to sleep. 'Buffy misses home; I can see it in her eyes. I mean she should, she has friends there, and she has a reason to be there. They need her.' Dawn thought. 'I should miss home to, but I don't for some reason. Maybe it just hasn't been long enough. Yeah that's it.' Dawn thought. Thoughts like those went through Dawn's mind as she fell in to a dreamless sleep.

Boromir looked at Dawn who was sleeping peacefully beside of her 'sister'. He finally tore his eyes away from her and to Aragorn. "How do we know the key isn't planning to kill us any minute know? How can you be so calm with the key so close? How do we know that the second we close our eyes the key will not slit our throats? I say we destroy it now!" Boromir said to Aragorn as he cast another look at Dawn.
"She is but a child in the eyes of her world and to her own. She knows not of what her powers are. I do not believe she wishes any ill will toward us." Aragorn explained. Gimli and Legolas were watching them closely. "Would you really be able to kill a child?" Aragorn asked.
"She is not a child she is a thing." Boromir said.
"Boromir she is a child of man, sister to the slayer. Do you honestly think the slayer would have let her live if she was evil?" Aragorn asked. "She has blood just as ours, she can die like any of us. Yes she is powerful but still no more then a child." He said.
"Believe what you want Aragorn, but I will watch her. And one wrong move from her and-"
"Did you not listen to anything Lady Galadriel said with out Lady Dawn Middle earth will fall, the race of men will die?" Legolas said. "She wishes us no harm." Legolas said. "I can feel it, she is pure, and she walks with the light." He said.
"A sheep in wolves clothes." Boromir argued. "Master dwarf what do you believe?" Boromir asked.
"I believe that we shouldn't be so quick to judge." Gimli said looking around. "We know nothing about the lass, key whatever she is." He said. After that silence came over the camp. Everyone in their own thoughts, thinking different things about Dawn and what they should believe about her.

The next day they were in the boats again, in the same seating arrangement. Dawn with Legolas and Gimli and Buffy with Aragorn, Frodo, and Sam. The sun was bright and shinning down upon them making the water sparkle and making Legolas' hair shine, which Dawn was in awe of. Buffy was thinking about home and not really paying much attention to anything.
"Your sister knows nothing of what Galadriel told you of her origin, does she?" Aragorn asked.
Buffy glanced toward him. She sighed. "No." She said.
"You have not told her? Why?" Aragorn asked.
"Because she doesn't need to know, and she doesn't need to know that all of you know what she doesn't know, and she also doesn't need to know that you peoplers know that she is the key. And I intend to keep it that." Buffy rambled.
"It would be wise to tell her of where she comes from." Aragorn said.
"Listen I'm her sister and I sorta know what's best for her, and keeping her in the dark is what is best for her." Buffy argued.
Aragorn sensing he would get nowhere with Buffy, so he left it at that and let her resume thinking. He was against everything she had just said. Dawn should know and he knew Buffy was making a big mistake in not telling Dawn what she had found out. He glanced at Dawn and saw a small smile on her lips as she looked toward the shinny water.
(In Legolas' boat)
Dawn would often glance at Legolas and wonder if all the elves were THAT pretty. Sure she had seen all the elves in Lothlorien, but was there more. This caused Dawn's curiosity to spark.
"Hey uh Legolas I gotta question for you." Dawn said.
Legolas glanced back at her a moment. "Yes Lady Dawn." He said.
Dawn rolled her eyes that lady crap was really starting to get on her nerves. "Ok number one could we please loose the lady and just say Dawn, thank you. And number two are there anymore elves?" She asked. "I mean besides the ones in Lothlorien, are there more?" She asked eagerly.
Legolas smirked at her and her curiosity. "Yes there is." He said.
"Ohhh, really?" Dawn asked. "Do they all have blonde hair?" Dawn asked.
"No." Legolas replied. "Some has brown." Legolas explained.
"Cool." Dawn said. "So they're like immortal right? They will like never die?" She asked.
"Yes Dawn we are immortal, but we can die." He said.
"So do you like stay all young and pretty forever?" Dawn asked.
Legolas glanced at her. Her eyes were sparkling with curiosity and delight. He didn't know how she such a young mortal child could be the key. "Yes, in a way." He said.
"Oh wow!" Dawn exclaimed. "That is so cool! You would like never have to by those wrinkle crèmes wow!" Dawn said when another thought popped in her mind. "Wait how old are you? Are you young? Because you look young." She asked.
"I am young, I haven't even reached three thousand yet." Legolas replied.
Dawn's eyes were wide. "So I take it then you're past a thousand?" Dawn asked.
"Yes." Legolas said.
"Damn that's old!" Dawn exclaimed.
Legolas looked back at her for a moment. Dawn realized what she said and blushed. "I mean where I come from that's old, but for you and your elfish people I guess that would pretty young huh?" Dawn quickly said.
"Yes." Legolas said as he smirked. The rest of the way was in silence until Aragorn pointed out the huge statues of the two men to Frodo, and then shortly after that they made camp. Dawn stretched once she got out of the boat and went to stand with Buffy as they quietly spoke.
"Where is Frodo?" Merry asked. That little sentence caught everyone's attention.

Ok that's it. Sorry about the ending but I had to rush it. Oh and should Boromir die in the next chapter? I'm debating on weather or not I want him alive. Dead or Alive? Dead or Alive? Dead or Alive? Hard decision. You pick, u want him dead and out or alive and in? Well BYEBYES!!!!!!!!! And please review and tell me what you thought, as for Legolas' age, I'm prolly wrong, so sorry, so therefore no need to point it out. Well BYEBYES!!!!
