When the boats came in view of the waterfall, they rowed the boats to the shore. This is where they would camp till night fall.
Adela stepped out of the boats, she didn't know why but her heart hammered in her chest and she felt a coldness in-describle. She gazed around the area, this was it. This was it before the real terror began.
Pippin, on the other hand was occupied on his empty stomach.
"I'm hungry..." He groaned.
Adela wanted to be alone, she didn't know why, but it hurt to be with her friends, as though she feared to see them hurt.
Merry had settled in to sleep, but found it a tad difficult with Pippin moaning about his need to eat.
"Pippin, we are all hungry. Stop complaining and get some rest." Merry said, grabbing Pippin's arm, causing him to fall down beside Merry.
"bu- yes, all right." Pippin gave in, no matter how much his stomach protested.
Adela looked down at Merry and Pippin snuggled together.
`Why does it hurt? To see them content, I should be happy.' Adela felt the need to break down, her knees felt weak, she felt weak.
Sam had propped himself up against a stone wall and had fallen into a light sleep.
Her eyes then searched for Frodo, they never came upon him.
Adela's cheeks lost there color. He didn't want to draw anyone's attention, so she silently crept off into the woods.
Adela burst into a sprint; she wasn't going to lose him. She had already, many times, nearly lost him.
Adela ran until her legs finally gave way, she fell to her knees.
"No...why does it hurt, why?..." Adela said her voice quavered.
Adela fell to her side and let the tears flow, but the tears made no sense to her, why was she crying.
After the tears stopped she began to talk to herself.
"I wish this to end, why dear Frodo, why him? He doesn't deserve this...If anyone does, it would be me, no one else feels the greed building me. If I had the chance to let them go and be happy I would....But...but I can't."

Further into the woods
*
Frodo walked up a hill, gathering firewood.
His mind raced, not over the ring, but over the fellowship...his friends.
`Was it really fair to let them continue this journey? They suffer so...' Frodo chuckled. `I know they'd never leave me, even if I begged, oh how I love them all...but still...'
Frodo's once smile had quickly turned to a sad pained face.
Just then Frodo heard a twig snap, he looked up to see Boromir.
"I know you suffer, little one. I see it day by day. I could bid you of this burden."
Frodo cautiously took a step back. "You can't have it."
"We could use it against them, don't you see? Give me the Ring!"
"No." Frodo glared, and placed a protective hand over the Ring.
"I can take it by force, it should be mine!" With that, Boromir lunged at Frodo.
Frodo quickly dodged him and tried to run up the hill, but Boromir grabbed Frodo's leg, causing him to fall.
Boromir tried to tackle Frodo, but Frodo quickly slid on the ring. Boromir searched franticly.
Frodo kicked Boromir in the stomach, causing him to role off Frodo, giving Frodo a chance to flee.
"You can't run! Frodo! Frodo!" Boromir screamed.
When Boromir finally regained his senses, it was too late.
"Fr-Frodo? Frodo? What have I done." Boromir began to weep.
*
Adela had regained enough energy to continue her search.
Adela looked up when she heard Boromir calling.
"Frodo...no" Adela ran opposite of Boromir's voice, Frodo ran, she was sure.
Frodo ran and ran blindly till he felt himself falling, he took the ring off right before he hit the ground.
Frodo sat up slowly, his heart beat raced. He was trembling, he then got to his feet, but his legs felt wobbly.
Adela saw Frodo, he looked afraid.
"Frodo...' She called.
Frodo looked up, his cheeks were wet with tears.
"N-no...Frodo, you promised not to leave me..us." Adela's voice cracked near the end.
She approached Frodo, He just looked at her and shook his head.
"uh..I..but...are you going to leave?"
Frodo nodded.
Adela took in a sharp breath. "But, I thought I was to protect you?"
"I don't want anyone hurt...I don't want you to come, I have to do this alone."
"Damn it, Frodo! You don't understand to you? It hurts when you leave, it hurts to know I can't do anything."
"I'd rather that, then see you dead."
"I'd rather be dead, then alone!" Adela hissed through clenched teeth.
Frodo just looked away.
Adela wanted to be there for him, but he didn't want her.
`So be it...' Adela thought.
"Frodo, if this is what you want, I shall grant it. I just want you to know, that I will always be with you, though I fear after this is over, you shall never see me again. Dear Frodo, I shall always treasure the friendship you have given to me." Adela said smiling weakly.
"What do you speak of, I shall see you again."
"Frodo..." Adela smiled "I do not believe I shall make it through the war, but for you Frodo I will try my hardest."
Adela hugged Frodo, one last time....
