Thanks to all my reviewers! And I didn't mean to sound mean about the changing of the title thing! I really didn't! Don't be sad! Please?

Part 3: Bridge over Trouble Water?

Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay thee down…

--Simon and Garfunkel

As Ami walked with the group, she was aware of an odd stirring within her. She couldn't tell what it was, but she felt as if there was some water nearby, some strange water that spoke to her of things that were, things that had been, and things that could be.

"Well, this is one dwarf she won't ensnare so easily. I have the eyes of a hawk and the ears of a fox!" an arrow pointed him in the face, as it did for each member of the Fellowship, who came quickly to a stop. Ami sighed.

"Toutou, fukitobasu kowadaka," Ami told the dwarf as an elf with blond hair and a face that could either be helpful or not walked up to say, "The dwarf breaths so loudly we could have shot him in the dark."

"I'll take what she said," Gimli growled.

"I said you talk too loudly, and boast too much. Really, I can't believe you sometimes, Toutou."

"Oh…"

Ami watched the exchange between Aragon and the elf, and the group walked into the woods. Ami moved up behind Aragon.

"Aragon'ou, who is the elf-shashu that leads us through these woods?"

"He is Haldir, a friend of mine and servant to the Lady of these Woods and her lord."

"Ah, I see," Ami answered, noticing Haldir turn to look at her. She smiled at him and said in Japanese, "Haldir of the Woods, you have nothing to fear from a Lady of Water. I, too, serve a Queen whom we will gladly die for."

Haldir raised an eyebrow at her, but Ami simply smiled and turned to face forward, wondering what the elf thought she had said.

"Aragon'ou, come here and let me see your head." Aragon looked over to the blue-haired girl, then started to move on.

"Strider, Elessar, Aragon, and the foolish Ranger that you are, come here now!" Aragon winced and finally came over with a "Yes, Elenaithil."

"You may call me Ami. Now, sit. I cannot see so high, Aragon'ou." Aragon sat and let her slowly check over where he had hit the rock, finding only tender spots that made him wince.

"You're head is as thick as Toutou and the mithril that Jisannin wears, but I think Boromir's is thicker. You're fine, at least."

"Are you a doctor as well as a master of ice?"

Ami smiled at him, "I wanted to be a doctor. I learned some from my mother, and from taking care of wounds that I got from the fights in my world, but I must serve my princess. That is my one true dream."

Aragon turned to face the girl. "But you can still be a doctor?"

"Perhaps…I cannot hope too much, Aragon'ou, but I can hope anyway, just as you and Arwen can."

Aragon decided to try a new line of discussion. "What does that last part of my name mean? The 'ou'?"

"It means 'king'. Now," Ami stood up and smiled at the Ranger, "I must go and get some sleep. I'll see you later."

Aragon watched the blue-haired girl leave and wondered about what she had said before and what she was leaving out.

"Galadriel," the voice made the elf-queen look over to a shadow nearby and watch the girl, Elenaithil, walk out to speak with her.

"You use mizu…excuse me, water, to see the future?"

Galadriel smiled at the girl. "You use water as well, child. What is wrong with what I use it for?"

"I tried not to imply that," the girl answered, frowning, "I am not a master of all water, but…"

Galadriel walked over to the mirror where the girl was looking into. "You wish to look into the mirror?"

"I have had some problems with mirrors, but that was in the past," the girl said, looking to the elf-queen, "what I am worried about is Frodo. Perhaps…no, it's not right that I ask you to make him not see what he has seen. Galadriel-sama, I fear I am falling in love."

Galadriel now frowned as she looked at the odd girl from another world. "Love is nothing to fear, unless you fear the person."

"Not the person, but what may happen. I have pledge my life to my hime, to my princess and her daughter…as long as I can. But if I love, will he and I never see each other again? Could that kill us? I am a Senshi, immortal as the star I protect and gain power from, but I am also easily hurt. Would Serenity be hurt if, the next time I die, my Sailor Crystal…my soul, in a sense, decided to stay behind and find its mate? I cannot love."

"Elenaithil…no, Mizuno Ami, daughter of water and protector of your princess," Galadriel touched the girl's face and let her look towards the tall queen, "You will love, and you will realize that, with this love, it will give you more power then you had before. You are gaining that power now, but it will come to you as well soon."

"Hai…thank you, Galadriel. I think that is what I wanted to hear, but you had to say it. You are wise, and remind me a great deal of my princess. Thank you again."

With that, Ami walked back to sleep, and Galadriel wondered what the girl would do with this feeling and what the person who loved her would do with his.
