Disclaimer: I'm not even gonna say it.
A/N: Three things. First off, to all my wonderful reviewers! I love you guys!

Second of all. I'm sorry. This chapter is really short. So is the next one. They have to be to fit the story. I'll make longer ones though. I haven't been feeling well lately. I can't concentrate, but I have lots of time to write because the teacher's are on strike! It sucks! Thirdly, the song in this chapter is Home by Depeche Mode. I'm a huge fan! I hadn't planned on a song in any chapter but it's fitting. Enjoy this chapter!
The twins continued nervously through the woods. At the very edge of the forest, they found a tiny cave that they could stay comfortably in. Well as comfortable as one can be sleeping on rock. They sat in silence, attempting to build a fire to keep warm. There was no need for words, they could sense each other's thoughts. However, speaking was reassuring, so Elliot broke the silence.
"What exactly is going on here? I'm flipping out! First those people show up, then our clothes change, then this, this, this power we've been told we possess. I'm so...scared... I can't take this Elaina, I can't." Elliot broke down. He hung his head, shoulders shaking.
"Elliot..." Elaina drifted off. She crawled over to her brother and cradled his head in her lap, calmly running her fingers through his hair in her sisterly way, much like he had done when she was younger, and she had been frightened during storms or wakened from a nightmare. Elaina softly began to sing the first song that came to her head. One her father liked to play and sing along to. She loved to hear her father sing. Her own voice was not beautiful. Her's was more husky and soft, not high and sugary like most popular singers.
"Here is a song
From the wrong side of town,
Where I'm bound
To the ground
By the loneliest sound
That pounds from within
And is pinning me down
Here is a page
From the emptiest stage
A cage or the heaviest cross ever made
A gauge from the deadliest trap ever laid
And I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally I've found
That I belong here..."
Elaina couldn't finish the song. The reminder of her parents was too much for her. Salty tears ran down her face, falling onto Elliot's, who raised his hand and brushed them away. Slowly, they drifted off to sleep, soft sobs breaking the silence every so often.
The twins shared the same dream that night. A beautiful blond elf stood beside a basin full of water. She beckoned to the twins, calling to them to come to her side. The twins seemingly floated over to the basin of water and looked into it. The saw flashes of their coming to Middle Earth, meeting the strangers, the battle, and finally, the separation. Then they saw their mother watching them in a mirror, at their home. The realization that their parents had done this to them, gave them a feeling of peace and reassurance. They no longer had to second guess themselves. The only question left was why. The mirror changed to their previous companions. One by one they fell, while slowly, the world darkened and changed to charred woods and flame. A world of death. Elaina gasped when she saw at last the hobbits. She reached her hand into the basin. The beautiful lady elf reached her hand her hands towards Elaina in an attempt to stop her, but it was too late. Elaina touched the top
of the water and fell forward, Elliot behind her. Elaina felt a strong desire to protect the hobbits, Frodo, for some reason, especially. His...innocence, made her happy, and she liked that about him. He was unlike the men, or boys, from her world of steel and concrete.
Elliot and Elaina woke suddenly. They were both drenched with sweat and tears. Looking at each other, they nodded, and knew what they had to do. While two ladies in white looked on. One into a basin of water, and one in a mirror.
A/N: Another chapter, done and done. Well how do you like? Review it please. I still don't know who to pair up. I need it for what could either be the sequel or later-later chapters. Come on help me out!!!
