A/N: Okay, I have been thinking about the length of these chapters and honestly they are pathetic. I barely get started then I leave you guys hanging, shame on me! So because of this I have decided that I will make this one at least twice as long. But I want to warn you, this will be based on my own ideas and what I can remember from the book. I suddenly cannot find my copy.

I would also like to dedicate this chapter to Rayne Maker. This was the person that brought the length issue to my eyes and for that I am very grateful.

Rayne, this is for you!

*~*~*

They were being marched at a fast pace, there was to be no stops. Although the entire Fellowship had to be uncomfortable, the worst off one was Aallieah. The elves had mercilessly bound her wings and she was being marched in the center of a heavily armed ring of warriors. But the strangest part about this was that is looked like it didn't even bother her. She just walked, slightly bent over, and there was a small smile playing on her lips.

Every once in a while if the breeze was right, one of the members of the Fellowship would catch a word or two out of her ceaseless mutterings.

"Larita…sknntse thsies…oht lthoen…"

Aragorn was terribly afraid that she had lost her mind. She refused to meet the gaze of anybody and she would not stop talking to herself in Faerian. It was beginning to wear on the elves' nerves and worry the Fellowship.

Haldir had had enough. He stalked over to her and uses the butt of his short sword slammed her in the mouth with it. "Shut up! I have had enough of your maniac rantings. You are a fool and a coward to hide behind a plea of insanity. It will not sway my lady's mind. You are soon to be no more."

Slowly, Aallieah brought one of her hands up to her mouth and wiped away the blood that was trickling from the cut. Although the elves had bound her wings they had left her hands free. Not a good move on their part.

Suddenly Aallieah's eyes came into focus and stopped with a deadly glare on Haldir. "You are a bloody elf. A bloody elf. But since I do not see any blood present, LET ME FIX THAT FOR YOU!"

As they had been walking she slowly had managed to hide her hands inside her tunic and took out a hunting knife that was hidden there. Even though the elves had taken away her daggers, she still had deadly accuracy with a knife.

She lunged at Haldir's throat. Even with her wings bound she still possessed an amazing amount of speed. Quickly he blocked the thrust with his sword and tried to aim for her heart. Now she too parried the blow and aimed one of her own. This went on for some minutes when all of a sudden the rest of the elves realized they needed to help their leader against the now berserk faerie. Two rushed into the fray and tried to grab Aallieah around the middle. She was not going to be subdued so easily, she whipped around and in seconds their hands, arms, and torsos were slashed to ribbons. They fell to the ground in pain and two more rushed in, only to meet the same fate that their brothers in arms had met moments before.

Oddly enough, none of Aallieah's strokes were fatal. All they did was put the enemy out of commission two by two. Eventually the party of twelve elves and Haldir, their leader, were down to three remaining elves. Over Aallieah's head the three exchanged knowing glances, something was going to happen, and soon.

Suddenly the two remaining elves rushed Aallieah, one on each side. While she was deciding what elf to go after first, Haldir saw the opening he had been hoping for. While she turned her head, he lunged at her. Luckily she saw this in time and managed to step out of the way. But she did not come away unscathed, even though she dodged the fatal blow, Haldir still managed to hit her hard in the head. As she was falling she brought her knife up and managed to cut Haldir's cheek. The last thing she saw before she fainted, was the satisfying sight of blood trickling down Haldir's face.

*~*~*

"Aragorn! Aragorn! Will she be alright?"

Aragorn looked down at the concerned hobbits before them. At the moment he was at a loss for words, but Haldir overheard.

"No! She will not be all right. When my lady hears about this damage she has caused she will be killed instantly." With that he spun on his heel and reached down and grabbed the now unconscious Aallieah and threw her to another elf. "Here, take this creature to the Lord and Lady. I think they will be most pleased with us for capturing it."

Now he turned to the rest of the Fellowship, "I have been thinking, obviously she is a sorceress of sorts. She clouded your judgement with her spells, you are not to be blamed for traveling with her. Now we must continue."

The elf carrying Aallieah threw her over his shoulder none too gently and started off after Haldir. The rest of the Fellowship had no choice but to follow.

"When will we be there Mister Haldir?" Pippin asked.

Haldir turned and looked down his nose at him, "We will be there within the hour. I am Haldir of the Lord and Lady of the Woods' guards, not 'Mister Haldir'."

Pippin only nodded, thoroughly chastened.

*~*~*

It had been about a half an hour after Aallieah's attack when all of a sudden she awoke in the arms of the elf with a start.

"Ack! Let me go!"

She began to struggle with such ferocity that the elf was barely able to keep a hold on her. Finally she was loosed from his arms and fell to the ground and struggled to her feet. Haldir had heard this commotion and turned to see what was about to happen now.

"I see the creature has finally awoken. Bind her hands, she is not to go anywhere or do anything."

"On who's orders?" Aallieah asked.

Haldir just looked at her and tried to keep his face blank, he succeeded somewhat. "Why, the Lord and Lady of course."

Aallieah smirked, "Well then if they order it who am I do defy their carefully placed orders?"

"Good," a very relieved Haldir stated.

He was just walking toward her when she pulled her hands away from him, "May I at least have some water to clean my cuts first. I think that if I look presentably that I would have a greater chance at mercy from the Lord and Lady."

Haldir sneered at her, "A faerie that needs water to heal. Ha! Use your gorgeous hair, that's what it is for after all."

Aallieah smiled at him, "I would, but I can't. This just goes to show you how much you actually know about faeries. Because of the spell that dims the hair when the wings are covered, the hair has lost some of its potency. It will not work on the faeries themselves, only others. So would you kindly get me some water now?"

Haldir just looked at her and then sighed, "Get some water for the prisoner."

*~*~*

After Aallieah had cleaned herself up some, they continued on to the Lord and Lady.

Haldir leaned down to Aallieah who was walking beside him, hands and wings bound tightly. "I don't know what you think your appearance will do for you. I will use all of my power to make sure you are executed like the scum you are."

Aallieah looked up at him and smiled sweetly, "And I will use all of my power not to be."

Suddenly they came to a stop in front of a giant tree with steps spiraling up the trunk.

"Enjoy you last breath of air faerie. On top of this tree is the Lord and Lady, awaiting our arrival."

We'll see, we'll see," Aallieah said.

*~*~*

The climb up those trees was a tiring one, it took almost an hour just to make it up them. At the very top was a room that the Fellowship and Haldir were bid to wait in. The Lord and Lady would appear momentarily.

Finally after a ten minute wait there was a kind of glow that started at the other end of the room and up the stairs. The Lord and Lady were coming.

They were amazingly beautiful creatures. Both had their own inner glow that almost blinded any other creature watching them. Magnificent is the only word that would do them justice.

They reached the last stair and looked down at the nine remaining members of the Fellowship. Then Celeborn, Lord of the Woods spoke.

"Nine members set out from Rivendell and yet there are still nine. But where is Gandalf? For I very much wish to speak with him."

Before any of the audience could answer, Galadriel, the Lady, answered her husband. "He has fallen into shadow."

The only answer the Fellowship could give to her was to bow their heads in remembrance.

Then her sights fell on Aallieah, bound at her hands and feet, and she smiled gently, "Ah! Friend faerie, it is nice to see you again. We have been awaiting anxiously your next visit. We are both very happy to see you."

Aallieah smirked at an amazed Haldir and smiled a genuine smile at the Lord and Lady, "I agree, it has been far to long. It is wonderful to see you again Celeborn and Galadriel."

A/N: Well what did you think? Like all of the plot twists? Well I can promise there are many more where that came from. I know it isn't terribly long, but it is longer than my other ones have been lately. Tell me what you think!

I also used DeadSEXY3627's idea for an action scene. So you can thank that person for that! I think it actually fit in nicely. What do you guys think?
