Chapter 1: The Dark Rider
Darkness sweeps into the green forest, as a mysterious dark rider emerges from a swirling portal. Dressed in black and mounted on a tall obsidic horse, the dark rider rode through the green forest looking for her destination. The rider wore black baggy pants, with chaps, black combat boots, a black tank covered by a leather duster. Her hair was dark brown that was loosely pulled back into a braid, and covering her head was a black cowboy hat. Her eyes were a deep rich brown, with tiny sparkles of blue and silver. Her horse was a tall Freshen with black cloudy eyes and long wavy main and tail.
As the stranger rode through the darkening forest a hum of power glowed off of them. These strangers were not mortals. With trees whipping by the rider, a silence fell; an eerie evil silence crept into the once peaceful forest of Mirkwood.

An arrow soars through the air hitting its target, embedding itself deep in the hide of an Urik-hai. With a painful screech the Urik-hai fell lifeless to the ground. Running over the green grass as light as air, a tall man pulled out the arrow with ease. The man wore a dark green tunic with leggings, he had long blonde hair and had leaf-shaped ears. His eyes were a dark blue; like the misty sky after a rainstorm. Another elf raced up to the blue-eyed warrior.
"My Lord, are you hurt?" the man with blue eyes looked to his companion.
"Isilond, I am fine." The blue-eyed elf replied.
"My Lord, we must continue now before more Urik-hai come our way.Legolas we can not linger." Legolas placed the arrow back in his quiver, turned and mounted his white steed, attention towards the darkening forest.
"What is it, My Lord?" Isilond mounts his brown stead with ease, still keeping his Elvin eyes on the Prince of Mirkwood.
"My Lord?" Isilond asked, snapping the Elvin prince out of his mesmerizing trance.
"Hmm?" the prince of Mirkwood replied taking his rainstorm eyes away from the forest and to his best friend.
"What did you say, Isilond?" Legolas asked again.
"My Lord, I said what did you see?"
"I must be seeing things."
"What did you see, My Lord." Isilond asked curiosity taking over.
"I saw a woman riding hard and fast towards the setting sun." Legolas said a little confused.
"Should we investigate, My Lord?" Isilond asked striding towards his prince, with a nod from Legolas they rode off heading towards the ghostly woman.
~~~
The woman raced hard and fast as the fiery ball of orange and red slowly slid down from the sky to finally disappear into the ground. Slowing her dark mare into a trot, the woman looked around her; her surroundings had suddenly become dark. The forest was even darker than what it had been even while the sun was still high in the sky. The trees were so close together that it made the darkness look darker, if that was even possible.
The woman stopped her tired mare, dismounting in the process. The woman kneeled to the ground touching it. Closing her eyes as she whispered a silent prayer to the Goddess. Opening her eyes she stood, looking into the dark forest.
"Where ever you are Rain, I'll find you.I promise you this." the woman sighed as a tear fell from her dark eyes.
"Whether you're dead or alive I'll find you." The woman then stood and began unsaddling her mare. With a snort the mare said her thank you's of being rid of the saddle and bridle. Smiling the woman patted the mare on the neck as she sat the saddle on a fallen log, placing the bridle over the saddle.
"Well Storm it looks like it's going to be a long night." Storm neighed in response as she began grazing the green grass. The woman got out a blanket then she collected firewood as she started a fire she laid back and tried to get as much sleep as possible.
