A/N: Hi here is a new chapter for you. The last one wasn't reviewed, why?
Was it that bad? If it were couldn't you have told me? It's not nice not to
get any reviews I get the feeling that no one is reading my story. Talking
about reviews all my old reviews are deleted unfortunately, I deleted my
whole story by accident, but I really appreciated the reviews I got from
the last chapters. If anyone is interested out there then I would like to
ask if anyone would like to Betaread my story. I really would like a Beta
reader because English isn't my first language. If you are interested then
just leave your email in a review. Enough of my talking now, this chapter
isn't so long, sorry. But I will try to make them longer. Now on with the
story and remember to R/R.

When Elizabeth opened her eyes the black night sky was the only thing she could see. When she looked around she discovered that it wasn't only the sky that was black. She was covered in darkness and couldn't see her friends or their camp. Then a silvery light stood by her side, it was the female wolf she had spoken to in her dreams. Legolas arrow was still sticking out of her shoulder.
"Elizabeth you are awake. I don't hope you have been hurt too badly", the wolf said. Elizabeth shook her head.
Then she said: "What about you? You have an arrow in your shoulder, shall I remove it for you?" The wolf smiled at her.
"Yes thank you, your friend is good with his weapon". Elizabeth pulled the arrow out carefully and noticed that the wolf didn't bleed from the wound.
"Who are you?" she asked. The wolf sat down in front of her.
"I am glad you asked, because that is the reason I brought you here. I know a lot about you Elizabeth. I know your parents died when you where little, and that they gave you a necklace with a howling wolf on it when you where born. May I see it?" Liz nodded. She didn't know why the wolf knew all that, but she took out her necklace and looked at it before she shoved it to the wolf. Liz got a shock when she looked at her necklace, the wolf was gone.
"Don't think about that. It will appear again when you are together with your friends again", the wolf said. "Liz do you know what happened the night your parents died?"
Elizabeth shook her head. "I was only two years old, but I know that they were killed in a car accident. Why?"
"You shall know that you were in the car with them, but were saved", the wolf said. "I have been looking after you since that day even though you couldn't see me. As you know I brought you here when you lost your friends, but you shall know that you can't stay here forever".
"Why not? I want to help them in this quest, and why did I survive the accident?" Thousand of questions popped up in Elizabeth's head.
"You need to return to your own world because that is where you belong. You can't live here if you can't live in your own world".
"How much time do I have?" Liz asked.
"Time enough. And as for your survival in the accident, I can show you what happened". A mirror appeared in front of them and Elizabeth could see her own world inside. It was night and it was raining. The wolf pointed one of the cars out with her snout and Liz could see a man and a woman through the window. The woman had a little girl on her lap.
"Mom, when will we be home? I'm tired", the girl said.
"Soon Elizabeth", the woman answered. "You can just go to sleep and we will be home in a few minutes". The little girl nodded and leaned in to her mother and closed her eyes. A few moments later they came to a traffic light and drive forward when the light turned green, but another car at full speed came driving around a corner. The two cars collided with a great crash. The women hurriedly put the little Elizabeth in to her and protected her as her own head smashed into the windscreen in front of her. Both baby Elizabeth and adult Liz screamed. Then everything went silent after a while and ambulance came to the place and got the little Elizabeth and her parents out of the car. Little Elizabeth was bleeding, but still alive, her parents were dead. Elizabeth tore her gaze from the sight of her dead parents and turned to the wolf. She could feel the tears start forming in her eyes. The wolf came over to her.
"I am sorry Elizabeth. But I had to show you and you must know that I am here to help you. That necklace your parents gave you is not a normal necklace. It will help the bearer when he or she needs it most, that's why I came to you know", the wolf said. Elizabeth flung her arms around the wolfs neck and cried into its fur.
"I have to leave you know, and you must return to your friends. But remember what I have told you. One day you have to return to your own world for your own sake".
Elizabeth nodded, then she said: "What is your name?"
"Hope", the wolf answered. "Like your mothers". Then she began to fade and Liz felt heavy and sleepy.
She woke because someone was shaking her a little too roughly maybe.
"Elizabeth, wake up. Liz wake up, please". She knew that voice, she opened her eyes and looked at Merry and Pippin. Then she sat up. The wolves were gone.
"Your awake, what happened to you?" Liz looked at the hobbits then she said: "I met Hope".
