Youko Demon. You take notice of my slightly insane ramblings at the end! Awww shucks! I think a turtledove would look much like a regular dove. ''Turtle Power'' is from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, I watched it that morning and thought why not! Thanks for your reviews too!
Little Lost One. Yeap, her name is a secret, but I thought it would be cute to, well, you'll see it or you'll guess what happens. Cool name by the way. Thanks for your reviews J
You three are so kind for multiple reviews.
MirkwoodThe room was still. No creature stirred. The only being was succumbing in a deep slumber of restless dreams. But it would not last. The past night the room's inhabitant had never been asleep for anything close to a full hour. All at once the room that had been so still was hearkening in an air stirred and shaken by a call.
''Rise and shine, little one.'' Chirped Amothien's voice as she glided into the room. ''Can't. Sleeping.'' Em rasped from underneath a horde of blanks and a pillow or two. ''Nonsense. The sun has risen, so must you.'' Hummed Amothien. ''…no?'' said a rather drowsy Em from under the warm, silk covers of her bed. ''Yes! You have arranged to meet with the prince at noon, so you must rise from your sleep.'' Amothien sang as she skated across the marble floor into the bathroom to run a bath. ''Besides it is a glorious morning. The birds are singing their melodious hymns, and no cloud has polluted the azure sky with its unwelcome presence.'' The elf maid continued as she threw the covers off of the sleeping girl .
More like a hedgehog that a human girl, Em uncurled and, at a turtle's pace, proceeded to wake up to the point where she was looking around, but no more. Amothien reached down and took hold of her hand as she gently steered the sleepy girl towards the cool bath. Step by step they reached the bathroom door, abruptly Em's head perked up. ''Wait! What time did you say it was?'' questioned the girl with as much alertness as she could muster at the time. ''The sun has just rose. I believe the hour is close to the sixth.'' She answered. ''SIX. Six in the morning. You're kiddin' me, right? I 'm going back to sleep.'' Yawned Em. ''No your not.'' Amothien chirped as she continued to drag the unwilling Em into the bathroom.
Em was urged into the bathroom where a refreshing bath awaited her. Em trudged forward and slipped into the tub of water where the waters expelled most of her drowsiness. Not to long an amount of time later Em rose from the bathtub and , wrapping a robe around herself, walked over towards the mirror hanging on the wall across the room. Em leaned over and wiped away the condensation of water droplets on the mirror, to reveal a rather bedraggled looking girl. ''Isn't going get much better then this anyway.'' Em said to herself as she stared at her reflection in the mirror.
A light headiness suddenly came from nowhere, she reached down and cupping a hand full of cool water she splashed it on her face. As she returned her gaze to the mirror, there stood a familiar looking girl standing behind her, laughing. ''Sam…'' Em croaked out as a tear of joy fell down her check. Em spun around quickly but no one was standing there and she was once again alone in the bathroom. Em turned back and looked into the mirror. Amothien called out from the a joining room "Em, did you say something?''. "No. It's nothing.'' She hollered back while wiping the tear off her face. She looked once more in the mirror and plastered a smile to her face, walked briskly out of the bathroom.
Em walked into the room just as Amothien set a dress down upon a chair in the corner. "Are you alright?'' asked a suspicious Amothien as she turned around to face the girl. "Just peachy. Why?'' replied Em, the smile still plastered on her face. ''Nothing, nothing. Just my imagination.'' Amothien said as she wiped the thought from her mind. "You missed breakfast so I brought you some, it's on the table over there.'' Amothien indicated to a small table in the corner. ''I have a few duties to attend to but I shall return soon.'' Amothien departed the room leaving Em in the silence that had engulfed the room before hand. Em suddenly felt very small and alone as she looked around the massive space. She left the breakfast and went straight away to get changed into the frozen blue dress Amothien had left on the chair.
She slipped the velvety fabric over her head and turned towards the mirror in the corner. She did a spin and looked at herself. The fabric flowed down her and complemented her skinning figure, the material trailed on the ground hiding her matching slippers from view. "All right…I suppose." She then turned sideways and stared with scrutiny at herself, at this instant Amothien entered the room and ordered her charge to sit down by the vanity table. Amothien dexterously set Em's shoulder blade length hair into a high bun (Highlights almost hidden) with a few smaller pieces framing her face. ''In is almost noon. The Prince shall be calling for your company in a little while.'' As Amothien spoke a knock resounded throughout the room. "Or he could be calling now you never know." Em teased mockingly. Amothien fluttered across the room to open the door. Amothien swung upon the door to reveal the smiling face of the Prince. ''Are you ready to go?' smiled the Prince. ''She is.'' Answered Amothien. ''Shall we go then?'' asked Legolas ''Of course.'' Amothien said as she scooted Em towards the door. ''Your getting into a bad habit ya know.'' Em glared at Amothien.
Yes short chapter. I wanted to get it in before I have to get off the computer. He he, you all don't know what happens with Legolas and Em…but I do
