"EMMA!!!!!!!!!!" I screamed after a moment or two of shock. I raced towards her, but Legolas held me back. "LET ME GO! I HAVE TO HELP MY FRIEND!" I yelled, sobbing. But Legolas wouldn't let go. Frodo came back with Elrond, I was crying so hard, I had the hiccups. Elrond acted quickly. Frodo relieved Legolas of holding me back, and wrapped his arms around me and turned me away from the horrible sight.

(Baz' POV)
Frodo, Jamie, Billee, Legolas, Boromir and Colan all went somewhere at lunch time. I don't know where. I was sitting with Jake and Kezza and Carmen. Kezza and Carmen were two girls from our class. They were nice. People started teasing us about going out. Reasonable.
Legolas came running into the hall and came over to us.
"You guys better not come back to the dorm. Emma's in a bad way. So just stay here. Okay?"
At that moment, Celeborn came in. "All students are to remain in the hall until further notice."
I was getting worried. Had Emma tried something too drastic? If she had, this was going to be serious.

(Jamie's POV)
Emma was rushed to the hospital. This was way to serious for the infirmary. Elrond actually called an ambulance and as soon as they had come, they had wheeled my best friend into it, and Elrond had climbed in with her. Then they had gone off. The cleaners had cleaned up the girls bathroom. I felt sick.
I stayed in the bathroom for a few hours, I really felt sick. I even threw up a few times. I just couldn't get the image of Emma in a pool of blood out of my mind. Frodo came in and hugged me. He took me toward my room and lay me on the bed. He just sat beside me, stroking my face comfortingly.
I couldn't talk for a while, but when I did, it came out as a whisper.
"Why'd she do it, Frodo? Why does she have to worry me like this?"
Frodo didn't have an answer. He just comforted me throughout the night.
The next day, Elrond came back. I was the first to see him.
"Elrond. How is she?" I asked, frantically, rubbing my eyes, I hadn't had much sleep last night.
"I don't want to upset you, Jamie. With you a bride-to-be, soon. But Emma is bad. She needed a blood transfusion and her stomach pumped. She definitely went to far this time."
I began to cry. Emma. Why the hell did she do it? Didn't she care that she had friends around her? Hadn't she ever heard of talking about it? Not that I blamed her. She had had a pretty tough life.
"Can you take me to see her?" I asked.
"I can. But it won't be her. She'll have tubes and pipes coming out of her. She can't talk because there is a pipe helping her breathe."
I nodded. I'd seen it all before. My big sister had done it before. I winced at the memory. Julia had almost died. She lived at home now. Not that mum and dad cared. But she was much more careful.
I nodded again. "Elrond, can you take me to see her, after lunch?"
Elrond agreed and I went to the common room. I had decided to call my sister.
I dialed the number with trembling fingers. It took five rings before some picked up.
"Hello?" asked a voice.
"Julia?" I said, my voice shaking.
"Jamie, is that you?"
"Yeah. Can you come? Where mum and dad?"
"Mum and Dad? They ran off. They went off during a night a couple of weeks back. I wake up and they aren't here. What happened?"
"Emma. She did what you did a few years ago. She's in hospital."
"Oh my god. I'll be there soon. Don't worry. I get there probably tomorrow afternoon. Mum and Dad took the good horses."
"All right, see you tomorrow Julia."
"Bye sis, don't worry. You and Emma will come out on top like you always do."
I managed a weak smile at that. Julia always knew what to say to make me feel better.
After lunch, Elrond drove me to the hospital. He explained to the nurse that I was a close friend. She didn't want to let me see Emma. But I told her otherwise. I walked into the room. Emma was sleeping. But she opened her eyes when she heard me.
"Well, you've gone and done it now, Emma Silverblade. Is nothing sacred? Not even Gandalf's medicine cabinet."
Emma looked sad and sorry.
"You've really had me worried, you know. Frodo wants you to know he's very worried."
Emma closed her eyes. A tear slid down her cheek.
"The doctors said that if you were good, and behaved and didn't try to kill yourself again, they'd let you out for graduation. But why didn't you just talk to us, if something was worrying you? Billee and Colan and Legolas and especially Boromir are in a right tizz."
Emma just nodded. I knew she didn't mean to hurt anyone.
"Well, Miss Matron-of-honor. I'd better see you out of here at graduation, or I will be mad." I placed a kiss on her cheek, as a friend, I always did that. A stupid habit. Then Elrond had to go, so I said goodbye and went back to school.
