Apparently, crying didn't make her feel better. She got depressed. She was
thinking and looking out of her window at the rain pouring down in sheets
on her crystal window, her hands wrapped around her knees.
It's my fault, all my fault. It's my fault he died. If I hadn't said to go home we could have gone to a hotel and he would still be alive. It's my entire fault. All mine.
There was a knock on her door and Legolas came in with a tray of food. "It's not your fault you know" Anne gave him a sideways glance and ate three bites of her food to make him go away. He sighed and walked away as she pushed the rest of it away from her. She could be so stubborn sometimes. Just like him. Legolas began to sing a lullaby from his childhood as he stepped out the door.
Anne felt herself slipping into sleep. She didn't want to, couldn't. Then they would come, the nightmares, the memories.
~~She was in the car again, telling her father to go back home. "Why not, it's been worse and we've made it."
The mistake. Her horrible mistake. The mistake that would haunt her forever.
The car was coming closer, closer. the deer.
"DAD, LOOKOUT!!"
She screamed as he jerked the little car to the side, screeching the tires, and slamming his foot on the brake. Anne's red-auburn hair whipped in her face as the car spun out. The brakes did nothing as the road was too slippery from the slick sleet. The car went toppling off the edge of the cliff. The last thing that Anne remembered was jamming her favorite arrow into her quiver and praying to whatever god's were out there that they should live.
The dream kept on coming; nobody woke her this time.
Anne was falling to the ground with her father's arms wrapped around her. She heard his prayer.
"Please let my baby be safe, don't let her die. Keep her happy."
She had never remembered
They fell to the ground. Anne went unconscious. Anne died. She could see a white light. She was floating through darkness. And then came a voice.
We have heard your father's prayer. You have been granted new life. Anne fell through a different white light and felt as though her very soul was ripping from her body. The pain. The stinging pain. Anne screamed and was about to fall to the ground. ~~
"Anne, wakeup!" Legolas was shaking her and the three little hobbits came running in with Gandalf.
"I'm dead." Gandalf frowned.
"No your not, you're safe and alive here with us." Legolas gave her a concerned look.
"No, I'm dead, I died." Anne frowned as Gandalf smiled.
"No, Anne. You are not dead. You have, however, died." This confused the hobbits and Legolas to no end. Anne understood.
"Oh, I see."
Thranduil walked in the room. "What's wrong, what happened?"
"I remembered dying" Anne looked at him as though it were the most obvious thing in the world.
"I.see." Thranduil pondered this for a moment. "Oh! I see!"
"SEE!" Anne threw her hands in the air.
"No." Legolas looked at her expectantly.
Anne sighed and started talking to them as though they were little children. "I died in the car crash, and I remember now. I dreamed it." Anne spread her hands in the air to emphasize her point.
"What's a car?" The hobbits gave her an inquisitive look.
"A horseless carriage." She got 'the look'. "I fell off of a cliff and dad didn't want me dead, he wanted me alive, and happy. So that's just what I'm going to be." She began to scarf down her food.
"Wonderful." Legolas gave her a querying look.
She glared at him from her busy shoveling. "What?"

Did you like it? I did. I find the 'I see' bit with Thranduil amusing. r/r for goodness' sake review. I don't care if you flame it or say absolutely nothing. REVIEW!!! It's irritating me. *spastic twitching* USE THE FREAKING BUTTON!!!!!!!
