Chapter 21
Alexandrian Fields
Amwy walked into the flourishing fields that would guide them to their current destination. Maybe somehow they would end this journey soon and finally return to their past lives.
Ryken couldn't wait to go back to his water realm, being praised and remembered many years after. He was barely known at the current moment and was conidered a trouble maker.
Rouge wanted to return to the gardens of her own realm that is hidden deep in the Middle-Earth's grounds. There she visit the statue of her mother and speak to it. Elves turned her village people to stone, which was the same as death to her. They would never be able to live again for all she knew, which was much more than most.
Myian loved the idea of going back to Mirkwood. Everyone would treat her different because she would be somebody special. She would no longer be the shunned half-elf that some despised, but she would be looked at as the half-elf that saved the world. And maybe Legolas would see her again, instead of being cooped up on his balcony hating life.
Legolas of course didn't care if he was back home or was traveling back to the Undying Lands. He only cared about his search for peace. He knew he wouldn't find it in Mirkwood, but only in death would the pain be gone. He had felt it, and it felt better than anything in his life.
They traveled a long distance, giving small glances to the pastures and meadows in the distance. Eventualy Amwy stopped and faced the others.
"How are you fairing? I believe a rest would be in order!" She then sat down in a bundle of flowers, picking them and arranging a beautiful combination in her hair.
Rouge also sat near some flowers and happily stared at their beauty. Myian looked at Ryken the whole time. She wondered what a half-elf, half-human, and half-merfolk child would be like. She had never been so enticed before.
Ryken walked impatiently around the field, giving small glances to the different herbs. He finally gained a little patience and sat down on a tree stump that combfortably shaped. He then stared at the beautiful Amwy.
Pink locks fell over her face as the wind blew by. He thought his hair was better appealed to the others, but Amwy's unique and beautiful hair mad ehim feel a need to touch her face. With some effort he resisted, but he couldn't stop staring.
She arranged purple and blue flowers behind her ears, adding to the magnifigance. She slowly looked up and met his gaze, giving a embarrased smile and then continued her business with the flowers.
She looked over to legolas who was sitting in a plain area with short grass. She wondered why he would avoid the attractiveness of the flowers. It was the will of her people to enjoy the nature around them for they never knew when it would be taken away from them.
Ryken finally couldn't resist his urge to speak to her.
"What species are you of, if I may ask, my lady?"
"I am of the Nymphs; A princess as you already know." She answered, keeping her gaze on the flowers.
"Why are you so far away from your home?" Rouge asked, trying to add to the beginning conversation.
"Oh... I ran away from home!" This even caught Legolas' attention. They all thought of the mess they would be in if they entered the kingdom of Alexandria with a run away princess.
"But wouldn't that endanger our lives, Amwy?" Myian asked with worry and a hint of curiosity.
"I will be able to fix anything that would go wrong and any suspicion of me being abducted by you."
Legolas spoke for the first time in a long time. "I have never known a princess to know the art of battle, why do you know so?"
"It is my inherited gift!" Amwy said, aprreciating the attention. "When a Nymph of royal blood dies, all of their natural aptitudes are left in a trial chamber below the palace. Whichever spirit finds you worthy enough will give you their natural gifts. I was given the gifts of Alexander, the founder of Alexandria. He was the most powerful magic user and was a master of weapons. Given his gift, I can use a more powerful version of magic and everything I touch can somehow be used as a effective weapon in my hands."
Ryken was astonished that a beauty as her could be such a seductive fighter. As weird as it may sound to others, he believed it only made her more attractive than before.
Myian saw the looks on Ryken's face, and became jealous. She felt like standing up and screaming at Amwy, "I saw him first!" But Myian knew Amwy's power.
Amwy suggested that they move on, and that is what they did. After coming only half a mile from Alexandria, all the gorup stopped. They looked at the beauty of Alexandria. But Amwy didn't stop to lookat her home, she topped because she heard fast approaching enemies.
She drew the hidden sais from under her white gown, and stood in a battle stance. She kept looking around her, keen battle intincts were flying through her head. A skin-changer in the form of a bear flew through the tall grass off to the side and was ready to kill.
Amwy jumped and met it in the air, jabbing a sai through its chest. It fell to the ground and Amwy landed on its back. It was dead but something about seemed more alive than before.
A black ball of fog came from the skin-changers body and glided into Myian's mouth. She instantly fell to the ground, causing Legolas and Ryken to kneel down beside her.
Legolas checked for a pulse, and he discovered that this time she was really dead...

Told you she could possibly not last the whole entire story. Or maybe she will...
Sorry for the lack of updates, so much to do in so little time!! But the weekend is here and I will do my best to at lteast write one or two chapters a day. Maybe even more than that, depends on the beautiful reviews and how into the story I am at the time.
Today im sick, so im home from school writing this while im on some asprin. It starting to wear off so I will go 'till I can get my fever gone again. (If I write something funky, I blame it all on the Asprin!) ;o)
