A/N: I live!!!!! I have had HUGE writer's block on this fic. Yet I saw TTT
again and now I am motivated. Sorry for the LOOOOONNNNNGGGGG delay. I hope
that this chapter will not suck too much.
Disclaimer: I only own Serenity and any other character not mentioned in the book. And I have a confession to make....Serenity is a Mary Sue. There I admit it. I only hope she is not such a horrible Mary Sue that anyone wants to jump off a bridge or anything.
The two lovers stayed at the stream kissing until a voice interupted them.
"Princess! What do you think you are doing? Out alone with a male..kissing! That is inappropriate behavior!" Sal informed Serenity as she came storming out of the trees. Grabbing Serenity's hand Sal turned to Legolas. "I believe you have more important matters to tend to Prince Legolas."
"But my lady.."
"Don't you 'but' me young man. The princess has a meeting with some of the other elf maidens. I don't know how she is suppose to become a proper lady always running around with boys. Kissing them for that matter." With that Sal turned and pulled Serenity along after. Turning Serenity sent him an apoligetic look followed by a help me one. Laughing Legolas went to find Gimli to explore the elven woods.
***
It was nightfall by the time Serenity was allowed to return to the guys. She had spent many hours listening to how a proper lady acts. If she heard one more person tell her that ladies do not keep company with only men she was gonna scream. After those hours of suffering she knew why she prefered to hang out with only men. She was walking to where the guys were staying when Aragorn stepped infront of her.
"So I see they did not drive you to suicide."
"No, murder. Don't worry though, I buried the bodies." Serenity informed him laughing.
"I want you to know I am happy for you and Legolas." Serenity looked at him in surprise. "Legolas told me. He wanted to make sure it was ok with me. So, I guess you are out of my care now."
"I guess so. I'm still in shock and a little scared." She said as she sat on a nearby bench. Aragorn sat down next to her.
"Why are you scared?"
"I love Legolas. I love him more then I ever thought possible. We found each other in the most unlikely way and now we are to wed. However, we still have this quest to complete. I know in my heart it will not be over soon. I fear that it will result in war. What if Legolas or I dies. I can't bare losing him and I don't think he could stand losing me."
"No. I know that if Legolas lost you he would die of a broken heart. You two are in love and there is a war brewing. Use the feeling of being in love to motivate you to fight. Fight so that others may fall in love and share that feeling. Also know this. Even though you are betrothed to him, you will always belong to me. I hope that my daughters will make me as proud as you do." Aragorn squeezed Serenity's hand and stood up pulling her to her feet. "We must hurry and join the others. I fear that Sal will be here soon to take you to prepare for bed."
"I feel sorry for your daughters. They will be princesses. I have seen the horror that is being a princess, and I wish that on no one." Serenity informed Aragorn. Laughing the two joined the rest of the fellowship.
For the next two hours the group had a rather good time talking and playing around. Yet they were not allowed to be totally carefree. They knew that in the next few days, they would be setting out for the next part of their journey, without Gandalf. Finally Sal came and took Serenity away to her room for bed. After her bath, Sal helped Serenity get dressed for bed. After tucking her in Sal said good night and left. Serenity had closed her eyes and was almost asleep when she felt someone climb into her bed. Not even having to turn around, Serenity let Legolas wrap his arms around her and the two slept in peace the whole night.

A couple days later it was finally time to go. After Lady Galadriel bid everone farewell and gave them parting gifts, Serenity got a new sword, the group split up into three boats. They left Lothlorien behind them and set out to meet whatever laid before them. Legolas and Serenity shared a boat with Gimli who was rather quiet after his goodbye to the Lady Galadriel.
After traveling until night fall, they set up camp on the river bank. Legolas remained awake and kept watch for anything out of the ordinary. Serenity was sleeping between Merry and Pippin who each had a hold of one of her hands. They slept undisturbed that night and woke before first light to set out once more.
They spent the whole day on the river and nothing exciting happened. Before it even began to get dark, Aragorn found a spot just hidden in the trees for them to make camp. They set up a small fire to cook on and laid out their blankets to sleep. Serenity was letting Sam teach her to cook when she over heard Legolas and Aragorn. It seemed that Frodo and Boromir had disapeared.
"Serenity come here." Aragorn called to her. Serenity walked over to him and Legolas. "Look and tell us what you can see."
Serenity closed her eyes and when they opened they were silver. She slowly scanned the trees until two figures caught her eyes. One was a deep red color which Serenity knew was Boromir. The other was a golden tan color which could only be Frodo. From what Serenity could tell Frodo was laying on the ground and Boromir stood over him. Suddenly Frodo's color faded until it was almost gone. She saw him run the other way.
"Frodo is heading east and Boromir is heading north. I think Frodo is using the ring." Serenity described the scene before her.
"Using the ring? Has he gone mad?!" Aragorn told Legolas and Gimli to come with him. "Serenity go with the hobbits and help find Boromir." Serenity nodded and went into the woods with Merry, Pippin and, Sam close behind. They were looking around for Boromir when Serenity noticed Sam was gone.
"Merry. Pippin. Where did Sam go?" They did not have time to answer, for they heard a large band of orcs coming. Frozen in fear, Serenity managed to tell Merry and Pippin to run and let her fight.
They had ran off and Serenity was standing with her sword drawn. She had never faught along and hoped that the others would come soon. She was waiting for the orcs to appear when she heard the hobbits yelling for the orcs. 'Are they crazy?!' Serenity turned to them and saw Frodo running away. 'They are helping Frodo'. She turned back around and saw orcs finally pouring over the hill. 'There are too many.' She knew that she had to fight and her powers would be of little help. She had no water to use, and no source of fire. 'Then I will strike them with my blade.'
She stabbed the first orc that came close enough and then another. She was concentrating on the battle when she heard Merry and Pippin cry out. Looking in the direction of the sound she saw orcs coming after them from the other way. They were surrounded. She was about to run down there when Boromir jumped out of the trees. Serenity was surprised and that was all it took. A large orc came up from behind and gave her a blow to the head. The world tilted then became dark.
***
When Serenity awoke she was on a horse like creature with an orc. Looking around expecting to see more orcs Serenity saw they were alone. She had no idea how long they had been riding. She tried to move and found her hands were bound. The orc must have felt her move because he spoke.
"Well, well. Look who decided to wake up." Serenity almost gagged as she smelled his breath. It smelled of burnt, rotting flesh. Closing her eyes Serenity tried to use her powers. She quickly realized she was still to dizzy from the blow to her head. Looking down she saw her sword was missing also. She was helpless.
"Where are my friends? What are you going to do with me?" She asked trying to hide the fear in her voice. The orc laughed and Serenity caught another wiff of his breath.
"All but the two halflings are dead. Though they will be dead soon. I have several things I would like to do with you. One is taste your blood and flesh. However, you are not for me. I have orders to deliver you to Saruman, unharmed, as quickly as possible." Serenity felt a shiver go through her.
"Saruman? What does he want with me?"
"He has many plans for you." The orc sneered. "I bet they will suit his needs more than yours."
Serenity closed her eyes trying to hold back the tears that threatened to fall. Her uncle, her betrothed,and her friends were dead. Now she is being taken to Saruman, and has no idea what horrors he has in store for her. 'Oh someone help me! Uncle I need you. Please! Legolas, oh my Legolas!' Looking ahead she saw the tower of Orthanc. Fear filled her every bone and finally the tears spilled over. She knew she was riding to her death and that she was going to die alone without love.
A/N: Was it absolutely horrible? I hope that the next chapter will be better. Please review and let me know what you think!
