"It's actually my Immortality necklace." Cara said sniffing.

"Why did you tell them?" Legolas hissed at her.

"I think we should confess, Mr. Greenleaf!" Cara snapped back at him.

"Shit! God! Cara you idiot! What are you gonna tell Grand-dad?" said Amber.

"I don't know!" said Cara helplessly.

"Mekwento cavaner mic Legolas? sian dominque alondatoran?" said Arwen. (What should we do Legolas? should we do a chant?)

"Ah, No! That would be too risky. We could actually damage the necklace. We'll need to contact father!" said Legolas. He turned to Orion. "We'll do a search and then use magic." Orion nodded.

"Excuse me, but what's so special about this necklace?" asked Ron. Cara gulped.

She took a deep breath and started

"I'll die without that necklace." Came her blunt answer.

"Now you blown it doofus!" said Legolas. Cara just merely said a few harsh words in Elven.

"Now, if you two don't mind let's search for it!" said Arwen. Héthien (can't get pronounce thing) came over.

"What's the matter? Shit!Princess Cara where's your necklace? Oh dear!"

"Hethien!" said Cara glaring at her.

"What's this about 'Princess' Cara?" asked Ron.

"Well..." Amber and Arwen began but Héthien cut them off.

"No, Princess Amber and Princess Arwen don't take the blame I created!" Amber and Arwen gritted their teeth.

"What's this about you being Princesses?" asked Harry (They had erased their memories after they told them the last time)

Cara's face grew paler every minute. She wasn't really listening to what they were saying. She looked at everyone. She couldn't hear anything. Everyone was blurry. Legolas was the only one to notice. He shook her.

"Cara! Stay with us! We need to tell Dumbledore!" Legolas said trying to get their attention. They looked at Cara. She was slipping. Her usual glow was fading. Her eyelids were have closed. Amber and Arwen raced up to Dumbledore. He looked at the two Elves, surprised.

"May I help you two?" He asked them.

"Cara's slipping! Someone took her Immortality necklace! She's really pale! You need to help!" Arwen and Amber said at the same time. They looked at each other, surprised that they had said it together.

Dumbledore looked around the Hall. He didn't see any sparkle of a blue diamond. "Take her up to the Hospital Wing. I will do my best to look for it. How long has she got until she slips away?"

"About one hour." The two Elves made their way back to the group. "We have to take her to the Hospital Wing. Dumbledore said that he'll try his best to look for it." Amber told them. Harry knew she was panicking, so he pulled on her arm. "What?"

"Don't worry. I know she'll be alright. Even though you know her better than me, I know she'll pull through!" Harry said. Amber's eyes were getting blurred by tears. Harry kissed her. "Come on. Just believe Cara will make it, and maybe she will." Amber smiled. They followed the rest of the group to the Hospital Wing. Ron was carrying Cara. He didn't understand her, but he knew she was a great friend. She was like Harry and Hermione were to him. Almost like family.

"We're here!" Legolas breathed. He pushed open the doors for Ron.

Ron set her down on a bed. Every few minutes she would mutter words in Elvish. Madam Pomfrey came rushing over to Cara. She checked her pulse.

"She's slowing down. There is nothing I can do for Miss Greenleaf. We will just have to hope that Albus will find her necklace." She said quietly.

It was almost an hour. They watched her. Finally, Dumbledore came in with her necklace. He gave it to Legolas. Legolas slipped it around her neck. Nothing happened. Were they too late?

"C'mon sis! Wake up!" Legolas said. As soon as he said 'sis' color sprang back into her face. Her eyelids slowly opened. She sat up, rubbing her head.

"What happened?" Cara asked.

"Miss Alison Riddle took your necklace, but you shouldn't blame her. Mr. Malfoy had her under the Imperious(sp?) curse. We know Miss Riddle would never try to kill you. She is not that mean. Miss Riddle would also like to appologize later on." Dumbledore answered. He left.

"Why would Malfoy do such a thing?" Hermione asked.

"Because he's Malfoy." Ron answered.

"No. It's because of what I did to him on the train." Cara said sternly while gaining her strength back.

"What did you do to him?" Walt asked curiously. He, Legolas, and Arwen hadn't been there.

"Well, she--" Amber started.

"I used the burning hands curse on him. Then, I used the water element curse on him. He deserved it. He was being rude after all." Cara cut in.

"You what?!" Legolas nearly yelled.

"He did deserve it. Watch your tone of voice! Madam Pomfrey won't be too pleased. Anyway, you sound like father. You're too protective." Cara said. She was still weak.

"That's because you're a woman and women can't fight." Legolas answered sternly.

"Oh really?" There was flame in Cara's eyes. Everyone but Legolas took a step back. They could tell she was just about to kill him.

"Yeah!" Legolas took a step towards her. Cara started to get up. They knew she was going to kill him right now. She was still a little weak, but as she was just about to get up from the bed, Amber, Arwen, and Ron rushed up to her and took hold of her.

"Get off me! I will never let anybody say women can't fight! Especially my stupid brother!"

"Cara! Calm down! You don't have to kill him for it!" Ron said.

"How would you feel if you were always protected? If someone kept you from fighting for the light to overcome darkness? How would you feel if you had to stay in a certain area of land? That's how I am treated. I am always being protected, but I hate being protected." Cara had just spilled out her feelings.
