A/N: Hi, finally I have come up with a new chapter. First I have been
suffering from writers block and then I couldn't log in, sorry it took so
long. R&R ^_^
If you know by know then I only own Elizabeth.
The road to Caradhras
The fellowship travelled for the most of the night without a break. When the stars went pale and the sun began to rise, Elizabeth almost couldn't walk anymore. She felt like she had been walking for years and not hours. She once stumbled and would have fallen if Legolas hadn't grabbed her shoulder.
"Thanks", she muttered sleepily.
"Are you okay?" he asked. Elizabeth just yawned in reply. Legolas walked up to Gandalf.
"Gandalf when do we rest?" he asked.
"We will walk for an hour more. Why, I didn't thought elves needed as much rest as humans, and yet you are the first to ask", the wizard replied.
"It is not me who needs rest. It's Elizabeth and the hobbits", Legolas said and looked over at the four hobbits. Gandalf nodded but continued walking. An hour later Elizabeth almost couldn't stand on her feet anymore.
"We will rest here", Gandalf said. Elizabeth immediately sat down, her feet hurt and it felt like they would fall of any minute. She looked at the others, everyone looked a bit tired. Legolas took the first watch, and Elizabeth almost fell asleep before her head touched the ground.
When she woke up again the sun had passed zenith. Nearly everyone else was up. She walked over to Legolas.
"Had a good nights sleep?" he asked.
"Yes and most of the day too. Why didn't anyone wake me up? I should have been taking my watch" she said.
"It wasn't necessary. I think we will be travelling in the daylight from now, so don't worry about the watches you will get many of them", the elf replied. Elizabeth looked around at the rest of the fellowship. Boromir was teaching Merry and Pippin how to use their swords, while Frodo and Sam were watching. Aragorn was talking to Gandalf about their route. Elizabeth walked over and sat down beside Frodo and Sam to watch Boromir teach the hobbits. She once again remembered when she had met him and wondered what had made her like him when she had been back in her own world. It had been the things he had said and done, his loyalty towards his people, his father and brother. Maybe she had always known that she didn't have any real friends and she had liked the fact that there where some loyalty in the world even if it was in a book universe. She sat watching the sky a little, not really seeing it, she was just lost in thoughts about her own world, and the fact that she would maybe never see it again.

Legolas looked over at Elizabeth when she sat down to watch Boromir, Pippin and Merry as they practised with their swords. She was a strange girl. He had talked with Aragorn about her when they had accepted her in the fellowship and had got the impression that she was shy and silent most of the time, actually she was only speaking and laughing a lot when she was together with the hobbits. Still she had seemed quite stubborn when she had wanted to be a part of the fellowship. He wanted to know more about her, and find out why she was so different. Not many of the girls he knew would have joined a group on a dangerous trip. He looked up at the sky and saw something moving. The others had seen it too.
"It's just clouds", Gimli said.
"No it's spies from Saruman", Legolas yelled.
"Hide", Aragorn roared and everyone ducked under the cliffs. When the birds had passed Aragorn walked over to Gandalf.
"What road should we take now?" he asked the wizard.
"The road over Caradhras", Gandalf answered.

After a few days of walking they came to Caradhras. That night they could hear the wolves howl near their camp. Elizabeth had the first watch. She stared into the fire and listened to the others snoring. Legolas came over to her. She looked up at him.
"Why aren't you resting? It's still my watch", she said.
"Elves doesn't need as much rest as humans, and now I can be sure that you don't fall asleep", he answered and sat down beside her.
"I don't fall asleep on my watch, anyway if I did the wolves would wake me again", Liz said.
"They are too close. We must be on our guards I think they will attack", Legolas said. Elizabeth looked at him. "Wolves doesn't attack humans".
"I don't think this is normal wolves, they are Sourons servants", Legolas said darkly.
"You make it sound like all wolves are evil", Elizabeth said angry. "And they are not. Just listen to them howling. I think it sounds kind of beautiful, it's like the night has it's own music". Legolas stared at her and opened his mouth to reply, but now the howling came closer and he jumped to his feet and walked over to the others to wake them up. Aragorn, Boromir and the hobbits pulled out their swords ready to fight the wolves and Legolas held his bow ready. Elizabeth saw the wolves yellow eyes from all around her, she got up and pulled out her own sword. Then she saw a wolf she recognised, the wolf who had visited her in Rivendell. Another wolf jumped at her throat and fell to the ground with one of Legolas` arrows in its eye. She saw Boromir and Aragorn killed two more. She looked at the female wolf again and saw one of Legolas` arrows sticking out from her shoulder. Elizabeth wanted to run over to the wolf and pull the arrow out, when another wolf jumped at her throat. The large she wolf jumped in the way and knocked Elizabeth over. Elizabeth dropped her sword and fell to the ground the last thing she saw was Aragorn who killed the attacking wolf. Then everything went black.
