A/N: Well, gee, thanks all! I'm just so happy to be here, and-oh, forget that stupid i-won-the-award junk. I am SO SORRY to all my..ok, my 23 readers out there! I can't believe it's actually been a whole month+ since I've written! First of all, Evil Aryante, thank you for your support, I'm glad you like it. Now people, go read her hysterical story. Amin Mela, you are one of my most devoted readers, you don't gotta apalogize (heck with spelling) for that! Don't you realize that it's taken me twice as long to actually write it?!?! And I'm sorry about your parents. May you make it through. Rayne Maker, my most cherished friend, just thanks for being there. *sniffle* Oh crap, here I go being all sentimental on you all! And luv to everyone else!
Also, I have a date with my boyfriend...YEAH! I've missed him! It's been...what...a whole week! Shame on me! And RM, don't go blabbing out who it is...but I love him, and that's what matters!
Hey, I might finally get my own e-mail address...I'm now using my mom's (ugh). Wish me luck on that dumb Algebra test! I'm listening to Bryan Adams-er, I mean, studying!

Disclaimer: *grumbles* Same as always, stupid-lawyers-who-live-to-destroy-peoples-lives! You know what, screw this disclaimer, b/c OBVIOUSLY I do not own Legolas, b/c if I did no one else would know about him! Except maybe Rayne Maker. No, wait, she might steal him. LOVE YOU ANYWAY, GURL!

Peridot's head fell back aginst the wooden door. Kaci, who was laying on the bed, lifted her eyes and ears lazily. "God, Kaci, do I feel horrible. I was so rotten to him, and he didn't even do anything. I feel like an idiot." (A/N: And you should.) She sat on the floor moping for a while, having the longest-to-date pity party-wanna come? Immidiately she jumped up, scaring the fur off of her wolf friend, and swung the door almost off its hinges (A/N: I'm sure she would have, but like me, she's ah...not strong at all. *Walter, a whole three inches tall, whollaps me and I crash to the ground in proof*).
Erianwen smiled at the back of her best buddie's head as she ran down the hall as fast as her un-exercised legs would allow. 'Hope she finds him,' Eri thought.
Now, an intelligent person would have swiftly packed and hiked after the Fellowship, knowing that they had started almost an hour ago, and walked throught the night to meet with them. Peridot, however, was not an intelligent person. Instead she dashed out the gate with no intention of stopping or eating or anything else except seeing Legolas. She ran for awhile, but soon that turned into a jog, then a walk. Eventually she stopped, doubled over to catch her breath. When she straightened up she yelled," Legolas!" She listened to her voice trailing off, absorbed in the trees. No reply. "LEGOLAS! FELLOWSHIP! LEGOLAS!" she screamed, waking up every bird within a five-block radius. She then whispered, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything." Just as she spoke a slight chill arose, and her apology seemed to be guided by the wind.
Many miles away Legolas turned around, even though he had not heard her. "Peridot?" he whispered. After a few moments he seemed to understand. He smiled and nodded before walking on. "What is it?" asked Pippin, who had not known about Peridot. "Nothing to worry about. My day just got better."
Peridot seemed to have gained a wisdom that day. Even when she saw Amy around she was considerate. Amy must've been unexplainably...er, I'll just say 'idiotic' for a reason. Amy was, of course, complately baffled. (A/N: I love that word! bafflebafflebafflebafflebafflebafflebafflebaffle *passes out*)

One day something came up that reminded Erianwen all too late about the note Dew had written to her sister. It went like this...
Peridot and Erianwen were walking down the winding hallway to their rooms. Turn, left, left, right...it would've been very confusing to follow had they not known where they were going, and for that matter where they were coming from, for every hall looked quite similar to the last. Anyway, they were talking animatedly when a thick shadow crept up behind them and clasped its hand over Eri's mouth. Peridot screamed. She only had a view of Eri out of the corner of her eye, and suddenly she disappeared. It was like she had just put on the One Ring, but the scene was very different from that when Peridot turned around. That's when she screamed.
Right behind her was Eri; she already was bound and gagged, her screaming muffled by the cloth. Four burly-looking men were around her, and two of them lunged at Peridot. She yelled for help, but within moments they had caught up to her. Her hands had been tied, but not without some difficulty. Peridot was one of those people who was weak at times, but fierce when she truly needed to be, like a cat when corned. She struggled to slip out, but the man's grip was too strong. So she jerked forward, yelling the whole time. Her feet climbed up the wall when she got near enough, and she flipped over her captor. Unfortunatly she had never practiced this, and she landed flat on her face (A/N: Sit, dog! Sorry, little IJ). The man roughly yanked her up and stuffed a cloth in her mouth, the blood from her nose running over it. She tried to pull back, but this time he was ready and twisted her around so her arm was bent and pressed against her back. He clasped his hand roughly over her other wrist. Peridot glanced over at Eri, who now had one man holding her as the other three got around Peridot. Eri looked determined and tensed up. Suddenly she swung around and flipped her captor over on his back. Two men jumped at her, but she kicked one hard and side-stepped the other one. He tripped over the first guy, and turned back, but Eri tripped him (A/N:You go girl!). The fourth man was debating between helping the others and holding on to Peridot. He made up his mind to hold Peridot but go for Eri at the same time. Idiot. As he was running Peridot tripped him, Eri caught her from falling and the man landed on the other three.
You may be wondering why no one else has come. Well, the answer is that the elves were having yet another feast, and it was quite loud. Only a few had heard the commotion, and they were walking toward the clamor, but the halls were long, if you remember, and the two she-elf buddies were nearly at the end of it.
Suddenly a fifth man, much larger than the others, crashed thorugh a window nearby. In two strides he snatched them both up from the ground, giving them the sensation that they had fallen through the floor. They kicked out as best they could, but only succeded in angering the huge bulk and knocking over a delicate vase. The fifth man climbed out the window, dragging Peridot and Eri through the glass. The other men soon followed.
All that was left were some broken pieces of glass, blue shards of ceramic from the jar, and a shred of Peridot's green dress hanging on a point of glass on the window.
