Title: Lost and Found Rating: pg-13 Genre: Angst/Drama Summary: Typical searching for family story. Read it and weep. AN: I am now officially giving Grampa Elrond powers over travel. SO there. Fwah &^%^&

"Celedir! What's wrong?!" my family asked in alarm.

"Never! F-f-family! A-all together!" I wailed. "Ada!" I cried childishly, flinging myself into my apparent father's arms.

I allowed myself to be disentangled from my newly found father. He held me at arms length and looked me over. Making sure I was alright. He seemed near tears himself as he pulled my sister and myself into another embrace.

"Ay! How could I have not continued the search for you! You were there!" he berated himself.

Together, the three of us and Grandfather departed back to the Great Hall.

*&^%^&*

The evening wore on. Father made us tell him all about the years we had spent alone. He steered us into a separate chamber.

"I have a surprise for you two. Sit here." he nudged us tward two armchairs and disappeared into the shadows.

We heard whispers, then silence. There was a large fireplace where a warm fire blazed merrily. From the shadows stepped a woman. *&^&*
