Chapter three: Soldiers and Legolas

Elladan noticed me freeze,

"Somebody is looking for you?" Slowly I nodded,

"The people from Mirkwood"

"What did you do?"

"Show my face. Legolas held the guards off long enough for me to run away. They were going to place me in the dungeon and torture me, I had to get away!" Elladan slowly walked over to her,

"Well, we could just act like they will never come but they will so we must tell father. He will know what to do" I nodded slowly,

"He will not hurt me will he?" I asked taking a small step back. Elladan shook his head,

"He will do nothing of the sort. You will be fine, follow me" I followed Elladan into a big chamber that had an elven man in the middle.

"Father, this child, Rose, is in a little trouble and I said we could help"

"What trouble are you in?" Then I retold him my story, from the start saying that I did not come from this time. Elladan looked at me once I had finished,

"So Alakasha is not your mother?" I shook my head,

"I am sorry Elladan, I had to lie, I did not know how you would react"

"Do not worry, Rose. You are granted a room in the house of Elrond. Elladan, show Rose to her room" Elladan nodded and led Rose to her room. Elladan was about to close the door when Rose spoke up,

"I am sorry, Elladan. I did not mean anything by it"

"I know you did what you had to. Just in future tell me this, please" I nodded and he closed the door. I lay down on the bed and I was about to go to sleep when the door opened and an elven maid walked in with a white dress and some soaps,

"The bathroom is in the next room if you would like to bathe" I nodded, the elf laid the clothes on the table next to me and departed. I slowly picked up the items and dragged myself to the bathroom and bathed myself.

I walked out of the bathroom and the first person I saw was Elladan,

"I was just coming to see you" He said slowly taking in the site of me.

"Why?"

"There will be a council meeting three days from now and father would like for you to attend it, would you like to?"

"What is the council about?"

"It is some private meeting, is that a yes or no?"

"It is a yes, I will attend. Who else will be there?"

"I do not know, but I do think that there will be some hobbits, dwarves, elves and a wizard" I nodded and my mind flashed back to an old wizard with a long white beard, Gandalf was his name. I shook my head 'There goes my imagination running off with me again, well I will see then won't I' I thought. Then my mind flashed back again to my friend, Kylie, who had given me a book called 'The Lord of the Rings'. I had read the first chapter but then I stopped since it was a little hard to understand. Elladan looked at me funny,

"What did you say about Gandalf?"

"Oh, nothing" I muttered, turning slightly red. Elladan gave me a weird look but dismissed it,

"There will be hobbits coming tomorrow, just thought I would warn you" Elladan joked,

"Elladan! Father wants to see you!" Arwen called out. Elladan sighed,

"Well I will see you around" He said then hurried after Arwen white Rose walked into her room.
