Decision upon Decision
Elrond led Frodo, Aragorn and Gandalf into an open with chairs lined up. There sat elves, dwarves and men. Aragorn joined with the other men, and Gandalf and Frodo sat on the side.
"Why didn't Elrond invite Sam, Merry or Pippin?" Frodo asked to Gandalf.
"Because he thinks that this journey is too dangerous for them, and nothing to do with them." Gandalf replied.
"Attention everyone," said Elrond, "Now we will have the meeting. First I will start it by introducing the leaders. Gimli, the dwarf, Boromir and Aragorn, the men, and this is Legolas, the elf of Mirkwood. And this is Gandalf the Grey, one of the last wizards that are not evil. Lastly, this is Frodo Baggins, the one who has the one ring."
"So it is true," murmured Boromir, "The ring of power is still alive… let us see the ring, Frodo!"
Frodo looked at the old wizard. He nodded, and pushed Frodo forward. Frodo placed the ring on a round table in the middle. All the company startled.
"This is a gift," said Boromir, "Let us use it against us."
"We cannot weal it," Aragorn yelled.
"Then what can we do with it?" Boromir yelled back.
"There is a better use with the ring," Legolas opened his mouth. He sighed and said, "The ring must be destroyed."
"I think that is a better idea." Aragorn sat down.
"Then what are we waiting for?" Gimli yelled. "Can someone destroy the ring now?"
"You cannot use the weapons here," Elrond answered, "The only place that can be destroyed, is in the fire of mount doom, where the ring was created."
"Wait!" Frodo interrupted, "Who will take the ring?"
All of the dwarves, elves, and men looked at Frodo.
"What? Me?" Frodo was surprised, "But I can't fight and I don't know the way!"
"I will follow with you," said Aragorn, "You can have my sword."
"And you can have my bow," said Legolas
"And my ax," said Gimli.
"Well don't leave me out!" said Boromir, "I will protect you with my shield."
"I will lead you to the way," Gandalf winked.
There was a noise in the bushes. Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli and Boromir took out their weapons just in case it was an enemy.
Gandalf simply went over to the bush and dragged a little person out.
"Why! It's Sam Gamgee! You can never leave your master behind, could you?" Elrond laughed.
"I'm staying with Frodo!" Sam cried. Frodo was surprised to hear his name not called by 'Mr. Baggins'.
"Well, as you are the ring bearer's trustworthy friend, you shall go." Elrond directed.
From not so far away, Merry and Pippin were watching each other. They were shocked that they were not called as 'trustworthy cousins'.
"We are going too! You need intelligence for this kind of quest." Merry and Pippin ran out to the court.
"Very well then. You two shall go too. Here is exactly nine. I now call you nine, the Fellowship of the Ring."
They all slept well. The next morning, they all checked their bags, and were ready to go. Suddenly, Arwen ran out, hugged Aragorn and said, "Take me with you."
"It's too dangerous for an Elven princess like you." Aragorn said softly.
Elrond stepped forward and said, "It is indeed, a too dangerous road for you Arwen, but I suppose you are worried about Aragorn. Since your sister, Vebriclya, has been practicing her archery, I will send her. She's a quite a hunter."
"I suppose you won't leave me behind without Vebriclya," a blonde hair elf said from behind a tree. Elrond drew out his sword.
"Father, don't kill her. She's the best friend of sister. Her name is Hothien."
"I won't kill her. It's just I'm not sure I trust her enough to let her in the fellowship. If Finduilas goes with her, then she may go. What does she have as her weapon?"
"I have a sword, my lord." Hothien replied.
"That adds up to be seven swords, two bows and arrow, an ax, and a staff." Elrond announced. "Unluckily, Finduilas doesn't have a weapon so she can take care of the hoarse. Take an extra sword just in case she learned how to use it."
After the late companions, Vebriclya, Finduilas, and Hothien, got ready to go, they departed from Rivendell. The journey had started.
Ok… I'm sorry I changed the character's name. I had to use Gilraen and Luthien because I couldn't think of names at the time I was writing the story. So instead of Gilraen, it's Vebriclya, and instead of Luthien, it's Hothien. Sorry for the changes!
