Fellowship Of The Fangirls

Disclaimer: I own nothing, I am but a poor student, who lives off beans on toast. Suing me would be pointless... unless you want to deprive me of my beans on toast.
Authors Notes & Warnings: Shameless self insertion, along with some other people (e.g, my sister, Ivy). Rated PG for possible swearing, and rabid fangirls. Flame if you wish, but flames will just be used to cook my beans on toast. Also, it's based on the movie.
Extra Notes: I've skipped ahead, past the funeral and such, because I just cant deal with doing even more angst, other than my other story "Web Of Sorrow." So, baring that in mind, lets just assume the funeral went ahead like in the book, only with both Boromir and Celarwen going over the falls, and more people singing. Also, this chapter is again slightly different to what happens in the movie... but hey, who cares!?!
Zephyr: I'm very sorry my angstiness has made you feel bad *huggles* But, to cheer you up, here's the URL for where I got my copy of the script: http://orlandomultimedia.cjb.net It's got loads of stuff, other than just the movie script (for which there's a link on the pull down menu at the top right hand side of the screen), all Orlando Bloom related!!!... do excuse me, fangirl moment there. I also have to admit that I write alot of angst stuff that has never made it off notepad, but my latest story "Web Of Sorrow" (again, a LOTR fanfic) is very angsty... dont read it, Zephyr! It's worse than chapter 18...
Laerupeth: Istar just means Wizard, Istari means Wizards - the 'i' is an indication of a plural. Another example would be 'You' - singular it's 'lle' and plural is 'llie'. I got the information from an Elven roleplay group, where the requirements for entry include a basic knowledge of Sindarin.

Chapter 19
******
I sat on the ground, looking out across the water. Aragorn stood with Candra, his hands on her shoulders as she continued to mourn for the loss of her sister. Gimli and Nalin stood further down, gazing out at the falls, listening to the low rumble of the water crashing against the rocks below. Suddenly, Legolas began to push one of the spare boats into the water.
"Hurry! Frodo, Sam, Ivy and Elanor have already reached the eastern shore!" he turned back to everyone, surprise shone in his eyes at the fact no-one had moved, "you mean not to follow them?" he asked Aragorn.
Aragorn removed his hands from Candra's shoulders, and turned to the rest of us. "Frodo's fate is no longer in our hands," he said flatly.
I stood up in shock at Aragorn's words, "It is not your choice!" I cried out, "Not only do your friends walk to Mordor unguarded, but mine too! Who are you to declare that their fate is no longer ours to worry about?"
"We may still worry, but I let Frodo go - he was scared that we would all eventually turn against him, and try to take the ring for our own - I say again, I let him go," Aragorn said. I relented, his words made sense.
"Then it has all been in vain! The Fellowship has failed!" Gimli sighed, as he moved away, waving his axe in the air.
Aragorn suddenly lightened, and moved to face us all, "Not if we hold true to each other. We will not abandon Merry, Pippin, Bramblerose and Ruby to torment to death. Not while we have strength left. Leave all that can be spared behind. We travel light. Let's hunt some orc!"
We all shared some happy glances, even Candra's mood was lightened. No words were spoken for a moment, but the silence was broken as Gimli and Nalin turned to eachother and shouted "YES!!" before turning to Aragorn.
We quickly dropped our packs, making sure we had some healing herbs, food, and of course, our weapons. I also took time out to make sure everyone else had enough food, herbs and weapons, because I knew they'd most likely forget given half the chance.
I suddenly remembered that I'd lent my walkman to someone. I questioned Nalin on the location of the missing item, only to find out she'd dropped it and lost it in the forest while running after some Orcs.
"You what?! That had my favorite tape in it, stupid Dwarf!" I turned and threw my hands in the air, "I will remember, and believe me, you will buy me a new one when we get home," I walked back to my pack, "if we ever get home," I muttered to myself.
I picked up my pack, and stood next to Legolas as he checked through his things. As I went through my bag, I noticed Aragorn turn to Candra, placing his hands lightly upon her shoulders once again, before beginning to talk. I tilted my head slightly so I could hear, but still made it look as if I was just going through my bag.
"Are you okay with this?" Aragorn asked, sounding very over protective of her, "You may take a boat if you wish, and head back upstream to Lothlórien, I'm sure they'll..."
Candra cut him off, "I am fine Aragorn - plus, my friends need me. As you said, we shall not abandon them, as I shall not abandon you." She smiled faintly, looking him in the eye. A concerned look appeared on his face, before it faded into a smile. He nodded his agreement.
I smiled, and turned back to where Legolas was going through his pack, only to find he had stopped what he was doing, and he was staring at me with a smirk.
"Evesdropping?" he asked, still holding onto his smirk.
"Me?" I asked, mockingly offended, "How dare you accuse me of such!" Legolas laughed, and I dropped myself down next to him, "Truthfully though, I wanted to make sure Candra was alright," my tone turning serious.
Legolas smiled at me, sincerely this time, "She will be alright," he said, sparing her a glance, "You need to stop worring so much!"
I sighed, and moved to get up, "That is true," I grabbed his hands and pulled him to a standing position. I looked up at him, noting for the first time that he was slightly taller than me, "but it is not as easy a thing to do as you make it out to be." I turned back to face everyone else, noting that they all seemed to be ready to leave, "Ready to go everyone?" I shouted out.
My reply was as I expected. The two dwarves let out a couple of battle cries in their own language - I dread to think what they meant - and the two human's lifted their swords with a nod. I turned to Legolas, who in turn smiled and nodded to signal he was also ready.
Aragorn and Candra turned and headed up and into the forest, the dwarves were closest behind them, for they were eager to find the Orcs, and thus fight some more. Legolas and I went at a slower pace, knowing that if we truly tried to hurry, we'd overtake the others in no time. As we walked past the scene of the battle, we stopped to collect some arrows from the bodys that littered the ground.
Once we were done, we continued up the hill, until we came across a road, covered in the many footsteps of the Orcs. We decided to follow the road, as far as the trail would take us.
And so, we set off, hope in our hearts that we would reach the young Hobbits in time.

TBC... and it shall be based on the book from the next chapter onward...
Sorry it was so short btw...
Oh, and wow, collecting arrows from dead Orcs... how romantic, hm?
