Hey lookie! I got off my lazy ass and did another chapter! Enjoy! Elvish is
in `'
Moonie and Mika sat on Arwen's bed silently. The raven-haired she-elf was digging through her drawers trying to find things for the girls. A small bag sat on the bed next to the girls. It was full of extra clothing, soap, brushes, and other things young women might need. Arwen looked at the girls.
"Do you need anything for your courses?"[1]
Moonie shook her head.
"If we need anything I can magic up some stuff"
Arwen nodded and closed the bag. Mika hopped to her feet and picked up the bag. She waved at Arwen and Moonie before running out the door.
"See you at lunch!" she called.
Arwen chuckled.
"Always thinking about food."
Moonie nodded and hopped off the bed.
"Well I had better get going." She said "Master wanted to see me."
With that she went off to find Gandalf.
~*~ Moonie stared at the burning candle intently.
"Don't lose your concentration." Gandalf warned.
Moonie's eyes narrowed at the flame.
Without warning the flame became a small version of a raging inferno. Gandalf was at her side in an instant.
"Good you've done it." He said "Now control it."
Moonie put all her energy into trying to get a hold of the tiny flame with her psychic powers.
The tiny flame stopped moving as Moonie wrapped it tightly in invisible mental cords.
"Now shape it."
Moonie took a hold of those mental cords and began to shift them around. This caused the flame to twitch and change. It molded into the form of a small fox. Moonie smiled gently at her handy work.
"Corel." She said.
The tiny fox performed a back flip.
Gandalf put a hand on her shoulder.
"Congratulations my child." he said warmly. "You can now control the element of fire."
Moonie smiled weakly and put the tiny fire out with a wave of her hand.
"I can't believe I actually did that." She said.
Just then a tall, dark haired elf walked in and bowed.
"Lady Moonie." He said. " Lord Elrond requests your immediate presence."
~*~
Moonie sat in a large chair in Elrond's office.
The tall elf had been staring at her for the past few minutes.
Moonie shifted slightly.
'You've come a long way since your arrival." Elrond said finally.
Moonie looked at him.
"I am quite impressed."
Moonie blushed slightly.
"Thank you sir."
Elrond stood up and approached her silently.
"Arwen and I have been talking and we both agreed that it was time we pass something on to you." He said. "unfortunately, Arwen couldn't be here to present this to you herself."
Elrond opened a nearby chest and pulled out a small bundle wrapped in pale violet silk.
"What I am about to give you is a great responsibility and weapon of great power."
He handed Moonie the bundle.
She unwrapped it cautiously.
Inside was the most beautiful thing Moonie had ever seen.
It was a porcelain mask.
It was pure white with an iridescent glaze. It greatly resembled the face of a fox. It would only cover her eyes and nose. Off the top came a very long pelt, with all it's fur, that looked like it had come off a very large white fox. Up at the top of the pelt, near the mask itself, were two porcelain ears like a fox's. [2]
"What is it?" Moonie asked in astonishment.
"It's a Teai." Elrond said. "It is a type of mask that allows you to take on the attributes of he animal it is shaped after. Meaning that when you wear it you will move as a fox moves and think as a fox thinks. 'tis a very powerful weapon."
Moonie stared at him in astonishment.
Elrond pulled another bundle out of the chest. Out of it he pulled two, foot long knives.
"These are Fox blades." He said. " They with be your greatest allies when you where the mask."
He handed her the blades.
Moonie took the blades with great care and attached them to her belt.
Moonie stood up and hugged Elrond.
He chuckled and hugged her back
"These used to belong to Arwen." He said. " She wanted me to pass them to you."
Moonie refused to let the tears in her eyes fall.
"Moonie, the Teais are the elves greatest secret." Elrond said. " you must not let evil get it's hands on this one. The fox is one of the god beasts. She is a trickster and a warrior. She is also one of the more powerful god beasts. Because you carry her mask you will draw power from her people. The Fox is also the master of languages. You will speak all languages eloquently."
Moonie nodded, finally realizing the responsibility that she had just received.
"You may only speak to Gandalf and Legolas about this mask my child."
"Why Legolas?"
"Because he too bears a mask. The mask of forest lore. The Stag. Though you may never see him use it you will know he has it."
Moonie nodded.
Elrond placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.
"Go now and get some rest." He said. "you leave early in the morning."
~*~
Moonie stood with the rest of the fellowship on the front steps of the house of Elrond. The whole of Rivendell had come to wish them luck. Aragorn gave Arwen a final kiss on the cheek. Legolas and Gandalf shook hands with Elrond. The hobbits gave their goodbyes to Glorfindel. Gimli gave his farewells to his father.
Moonie and Mika ran forward into the waiting arms of the Twins, Elladan and Elrohir.
"We'll miss you guys!" Mika chirped.
Moonie nodded in agreement.
"Now remember to play plenty of pranks you too." Elladan said.
"And remember your herb lore." Elrohir stated.
The twins nodded at each other before wishing the girls luck.
The girls received their hugs and goodbyes from the rest of their friends before rejoining the assembled fellowship. With that they left surrounded by cheers and goodbyes.
Mika quickly ran up to join the hobbits, whereas Moonie took her place next to her master.
Gandalf looked down at her and smiled. Legolas quickly joined them.
"Moonie." The elf said. " Mithrandir and I have been thinking and we have decided to call you FoxFire."
Moonie looked up at them.
"If you want that name that is." Legolas said.
"Isn't casting FoxFire one of my abilities?" Moonie asked.
Gandalf nodded.
"I like it." Moonie said.
"Then I dub the FoxFire, warrior of the elven nations."
[1] period. I don't remember where I got this

So whatcha think? Please R&R!
