The valiant fellowship had left beauteous Rivendell some days before.
Leading the way was Katherine, blond hair flowing behind her.
((A/N And of course it flowed straight back, and not all over the place making her look like a dandelion flower.)
Her fair face was alight with determination, and an unshakeable faith.
Behind her came Gandalf, powerful Maia who could shape the world with a thought. Aragorn, noble exiled heir to the Kingdom of Gondor. Gimli, stout- hearted trust-worthy dwarf, the son of one of the Twelve Companions of Thorin Oakenshield. Boromir, grey eyed son of the steward of Gondor, loyal and true. Legolas, skilled elven marksman, son of the King of Mirkwood.
The six of them travelled onwards, their destination Mordor.
Night came suddenly upon the group and they settled down to camp for the night. No one was set on watch, after all, what would dare to attack the beauteous Ringbearer?
((A/N Besides all the people reading this fic? And of course the various servants of those who wanted the Rings?))
Soon even breathing signified that the fellowship were asleep. Out of the shadows crept four stealthy figures. Keeping low to the ground, wraithlike they approached the sleeping Katherine.
One moved to her feet and bound them tightly with elven rope, another did the same with her hands which were crossed virginally on her breast. A gag was poised above her mouth, and as Katherine opened it to breathe, the gag was shoved in.
She woke with a start, taking the situation in instantly. Her blue eyes were wide and her mind raced. But she was too late. The last thing she saw before a gleaming silver blade was thrust into her heart were a pair of vivid blue eyes.
The figures unbound the ropes that had held her and removed the gag from the corpses mouth. The golden Ring was removed from her finger and slung onto a silver chain. Then the four figures removed the corpse.
They returned, still gliding silently, before the four of them lay down amongst the sleeping forms of the rest of the fellowship. Justice was served.
((A/N Well, there you go :) Bet that wasn't the ending that you were expecting :P I might come back to this fic and change the ending if too many people want to have more flowery language and mangling of plot. Thanks to all who have reviewed so far, its really appreciated!))
