We headed east for Imladris. I couldn't resist. My stomach churned angrily.
"You wouldn't mind if we stopped for a bit of food would you?" I asked the Ent.
'Hrum, now, were almost to the river of Bruinin, right before Rivendell. Once you reach Imladris you will find plenty to eat. We will meet Elladan and Elrohir there, at the river, they are elves too." The tree smiled. If trees could smile. Of course I'd never seen a walking talking tree before.
We came to Bruinin by night; the trees around the river overshadowed it. I looked around and didn't see anyone at first. I peered into the darkness of the forest and saw two tall figures coming towards us. I let out a sigh, it was cold out, and my own breath formed a cloud in front of me. The Ent stayed silent also. Alas, my time with the Ent was over. The two elves appeared out of the silvery shadows of the woods. They had brown hair and eyes like mine, their skin was pale. They were identical, except for the fact one was wearing a soft colored blue tunic, and the other a gray. One of them broke the silence.
"Well what have you brought us this time, Lostvine?" they smiled.
Lostvine set me down in front of them. "One of your own kind." I looked up, meeting eyes with both of them. "I trust you'll take her back to Rivendell safely, she does not know the ways of your people yet." I felt them looking at me, almost staring. I tried hard not to look at them.
''Hrum, now . her name is.." Lostvine's voice trailed off; "Well I supposed I never did find out your name." he laughed softly at himself.
I spoke up "My name is Mithrael SilverRain; I am the daughter of Silivrethen and Lhunaer SilverRain." There was another silence between all of us.
"Well I must be leaving you three now." Lostvine said, and he turned to leave.
"Goodbye!!" the twins said in unison.
Lostvine stepped into the silvery darkness. In my heart I was sad. This ended my life of the Shire. I had left it behind to be with the true people I belonged to, the elves. We watched Lostvine until he was only a small shadow in the darkness.
The twin in the blue tunic turned to me and gave me some food, "I thought you might want some food, I got word you hadn't eaten since Bree."
He handed me a small square shaped piece of food. I stared at it, I wanted to ask what it was, but I was too hungry to care. After I had eaten to my satisfaction we left the river of Bruinen. It wasn't that far to Rivendell from there. We passed through a small cluster of trees, and I stopped. I was speechless Rivendell was beautiful. My deep brown eyes shone with excitement. I looked at the twins; I couldn't tell which one was Elladan or Elrohir. The one in the gray tunic, smiled and said "Well come on, you don't expect to stay in the forest all night do you?" I walked faster to keep up with them. We crept silently to one of the side entrances. "Father is going to half-kill us if he finds out, Elladan." He said in a whisper. "Well if you would be quiet we might have a better chance of not getting caught." Said Elladan. I was running quietly behind them. We made for one of the side entrances. We stepped into a huge room. Elrohir shut the door as quietly as he could behind us. They let me take in the awe of it, while stepping into a smaller room nearby. They brought me a golden colored tunic, along with brown boots.
"Here." They tossed it to me. "We saw you do not favor dresses." They showed me to the small room they had just been in, "You can change in here" Elladan shut the door.
I tried them on but the tunic was too big for me, as well as the boots. I put my own muddy, traveling clothes on and came out.
"They don't fit me, there too big." I said to them both.
"It would figure, you're only up to our shoulders anyways." Said Elrohir. I sighed; I didn't really mind staying in my dirty clothes, as bad as they were.
An evil smirk came over Elladan's face. "We could give her one of Arwen's dresses," he said into the blackness of the room.
"We are going to get caught. Mithrael will not fit in Arwen's dress; she has already proved she cannot fit in anything of ours. Arwen will not be happy with us..." said the other twin. They seemed to know exactly what each other were thinking. Elrohir left the room, and didn't come back for quite sometime. A silvery shiny fabric entered into the room, and Elrohir returned. "It will be big on you also, but we can change that." he said placing it into my arms. The fabric was so beautiful, I thought to myself as I walked back towards the small room. I yawned I was getting tired. I wondered how late it was. I shut the door behind me and slipped on the silky dress. It was a bluish- silvery color, with long silver sleeves, and it sparkled in the moonlight as I opened the door and walked out of the room. I balled up my Lorien cloak in my hands as I walked out. I tripped and fell flat on my face, making a huge thud. They swiftly came over to help me. I pulled myself up, and grabbed their hands as they pulled me up.
"Must I wear this?" I asked them.
"No not really, but we thought it might be more comfortable for the night to sleep in." Elladan pulled out a small dagger from the side of his belt, and he knelt down. I winced and jerked back.
"Stay still" he said in a calm voice. He pulled out the bottom of Arwen's dress and jaggedly cut it off. "Elrohir, make sure Father did not hear Mithrael's fall." He made a dissatisfied look at his brother and left the room anyways. Not even a half a moment later he ran back into the room, "Run! Run everyone! Elrond is coming!" His face was serious; we both knew we had to run for it. So out the door we ran as fast as we could. I was last because I still had my-well Arwen's dress on and I was running kind of slow. We tried running towards the bunch of trees we had passed right before entering into Rivendell. I tripped and fell.
"You wouldn't mind if we stopped for a bit of food would you?" I asked the Ent.
'Hrum, now, were almost to the river of Bruinin, right before Rivendell. Once you reach Imladris you will find plenty to eat. We will meet Elladan and Elrohir there, at the river, they are elves too." The tree smiled. If trees could smile. Of course I'd never seen a walking talking tree before.
