Chap 14 The Job is Done time to Go
A girl came from the back of the crowd. "I'm Lily and I can help," she said. Legolas stepped out of the way and allowed her to work. Lily cleaned and bandaged the wound. Faer became conscious. "Legolas destroy the sword of Black Fire. You must take to the cracks of Mount Doom to destroy it," she managed before darkness engulfed her again.
Legolas walked over to the sword and starred at it. He finally worked up enough courage to pick it up. The sword was neither light or heavy. He stuck it in his belt and started off towards Mount Doom.

Faer knew she may never wake up again. She started to chant spell that could help Legolas. Lily heard her speaking in some strange, but peaceful language. The army around her was comforted by the elvish words. She may have been knocked out, but the chants had the same effect as if she was awake and well.

The sword started to get heavier as he came closer to Mount Doom. Legolas heard something coming up behind him. He turned, there was nothing there other than rocks. After looking around again he started off. What ever was following him either stopped or was being to quiet for elven ears. He had never truly felt tired, but it seemed like the sword was taking all his energy. Legolas stumbled and almost fell. He looked up and there, before him, was Mount Doom. It looked much larger than it had. The mountain towered above him, smoke pouring from its top. He slowly made his way up the road. The road winded around Mount Doom until it found its way inside. The sword made an usually easy journey almost impossible. Every step that he took the sword got heavier.

Lily found the Faer's condition was getting better, but she still had not waken since Legolas left. Faer still chanted the elvish spells for protection. She knew that something was following Legolas and she could not allow it to get him. Middle Earth depended on him destroying that sword. The army had moved out passed the Black Gates and made camp. Faer was on a bed in a large tent with other wounded.
Lily was going from bed to bed tending the sick and wounded. Faer suddenly woke up. She was sweating from the strain of the chants and started to curse herself in elvish. Lily ran over to her and told her to calm down. Faer finally did and asked why she was in the tent. "We moved you in here. You've been sleeping for a day," said Lily in answer. "Where is Legolas? Has he come back?" she asked. "Faer calm down your not healed yet." Faer sighed she knew that she wasn't going to get an answer. Lily left to check on other patients.

Legolas stumbled and leaned on a rock. A wave of tiredness over took him and he fell into an elvish dram. A women in a silver dress stood before him. "You must waken. Faer Giliell is depending on you. You mustn't fail her. You mustn't fail my daughter," said the women. Legolas woke and found new strength. Some light filtered through the heavy fog. 'A light from the shadows shall spring ..'
He started up the road. Hours passed before he came to the entrance into Mount Doom. He passed inside and all went dark. After a few minutes, a red light started to glow. He walked towards it and found that to three sides he was surrounded by lava. The sword became almost unbearably heavy. Using the last of his strength he tossed it into the fire. He would of collapsed there and then, but something told him to run. Somehow he made it out of Mount Doom. Instead of using the road he went straight down. Legolas made it down and headed for the Black Gates.
Before him he saw a silver horse. The horse stopped in front of him and he recognized the horse as Sul. He mounted and Sul, with all the speed he had, mad for the Black Gates. Looking back Legolas saw red hot lava running the side of Mount Doom. Not long after they passed the Black Gates and into the camp. Everyone greeted him with respect. After asking around he went to a large tent. In the tent Lily was running from bed to bed. "Lily where's Faer?" he asked. "She's over there. I don't know, but she may be sleeping again. She woke up an hour ago," answered Lily. Legolas thanked her and went over to Faer. Her eyes were closed, but Legolas knew better. "Faer, its me," he croaked.

Well how did you like that one. I told you I wouldn't kill her. Please R&R.
