A/N: Hey everyone! Don't mind me if the chapters are really short. A
certain someone *coughcough* Ev *Coughcough* told me how the ring gets
destroyed, so I'm trying to forget it as best as I can. On a happier note….
I finally finished the first book! Joy to all! I'm currently on the third
chapter in the second book.
So here it is, the next chapter, so that Mithril won't eat me ^^;

The fellowship walked for five days, resting during night, and had no sign of the enemy at all.
"Must… stop," Merry panted, having had walked for seven hours without rest.
"Just a few more hours," Aragorn said. "The sun's just starting to go down." So, much to Merry's dismay, they continued walking for another hour until there came their first sign of trouble:
"What's that?" Pippin asked as he pointed at black figure in the sky.
"Definitely not good, whatever it is," Julia said. It was now getting closer, and revealed to be not one, but a many number of things flying towards them. Aragorn stopped dead in his tracks, finally realizing what it was.
"Quick, get down!" He yelled. They ran quickly into the forest on their left side and dropped to the ground, keeping as still as they could. Silence was around them when, almost immediately, hundreds of black birds came flying down at them, flying high over their heads as if searching for something. They waited until the birds were out of sight before they got up.
"What was that all about?" Krystal asked Aragorn as she got up, clearly confused.
"It's as I feared," Aragorn said. "The enemy knows we have the ring, and it's searching for it in any way it can.
"I'm afraid we mustn't stop here tonight," He continued. "The enemy knows we are here, and we need to keep moving."
The continued their walking for four hours until it was too dark to see where they were going.
"If only it was a full moon," Isabella said. "That might at least light our path a bit."
"Well, most unfortunately, we won't have one tonight," Aragorn said. "We'll camp here for the night. Two of us will have to take turns keeping watch." So Aragorn and Legolas ended up taking turns keeping watch during the night. The others slept dreamlessly while, on the other hand, Krystal had a dream that seemed very real.
Krystal was walking on a long field near Rivendell, going back into a memory of when she was little, though she was the same age as she was now. But this time she wasn't walking alone. There was a boy walking next to her, someone who she could tell was very close to her, though she didn't look at him. The sky turned very dark and a black shadow seemed to come between the two of them. Two dark figures glided over to them. One grabbed her while the other grabbed the boy. She looked at the boy, but before she could see his face, she heard herself scream out, "Frodo!" and woke up with a start.
She looked all around her, lying in the same position she had when she had fallen asleep.
"It was just a dream," She told herself. "Besides, I didn't know Frodo until I went to the Shire." She lay back down and fell back asleep, not remembering the dream when she woke up again.

A/N: Short chapter, but hey, that's what I do ^^; Sorry it took me so long to get this chapter out. I was a little preoccupied with trying to forget how the ring was destroyed, and I've found some reverse psychology so that helped me a bit, so I'm better now. More to come soon! Please review!
Also, if you'd like to be on a mailing list to know whenever I get a new chapter up, just email me at AWinters64@hotmail.com and I'll email you whenever I upload a new chapter.
So here it is, the next chapter, so that Mithril won't eat me ^^;
