I just want to say this still may not be that good and it may be a little confusing! I don't own anything except my two characters and my plot! All the rest is J.R.R Tolkien's! Now read on!
Chapter Two
After Morgan left Angelina with Legolas she continued on through the various gardens throughout Rivendell seeing elves here and there. She was so absorbed in the beauty of it all she ran right into someone. Looking up Morgan almost gasped. It was one of the twins of Elrond, which one she didn't know.
"Oh! I'm so sorry! I wasn't watching where I was going..." she explained to the raven haired twin.
"It is alright Lady Morgan. There was no harm done." Was his reply making Morgan blush slightly.
"Please just call me Morgan... and if I may ask... which twin are you?"
Chuckling he replied, " I am Elrohir." Morgan nodded and took note of all his features to try to find the difference between him and his brother Elladan.
"Once again I'm sorry and I think I should go find my sister now...good day, Elrohir." Morgan suddenly said in a kind of hurry. Elrohir who was smiling now nodded. Morgan left but didn't go to find Angelina. She had had a strange feeling that Elrohir knew something about her and her sister. It was kind of odd really. Although he is one of the sons of Elrond so why wouldn't he know? Morgan shivered for no reason and continued walking again but then stopped suddenly because she had almost run into Angelina. "I'm not doing well I must start paying more attention." Morgan thought.
"Morgan guess what?!"
"What?"
"Legolas actually said that he will maybe talk to me more at dinner!"
"That's nice...you see if you just stop drooling over him and act semi normal he will like you." Morgan replied earning a glare from Angelina. Giggling Morgan walked next to Angelina on their way back to their rooms.
Elrond sat at his desk reading through various papers that had been piled on his desk when Elrohir walked in.
"Ada I ran into Morgan while I was walking in the gardens and she left in quite a hurry.....It almost seemed like she knew I knew something... Do you think...?"
"Ah......aye it is possible...." Elrond replied looking at Elrohir, "We should expect anything from those two..."
"Morgan! Morgan!" Morgan opened the adjoining door and stuck her head into Angelina's room.
"What's your problem now?! I can't possibly get ready for dinner when you're yelling for me every 5 minutes!" Morgan said angrily.
"I don't know what I should wear!"
"Still?! For heaven sakes Angelina!" storming over to the closet she started flipping through the dresses that were still in the closet. Pulling out a cream colored dress she tossed it to Angelina. Angelina nodded and went to put it on. Muttering Morgan went back into her room to search for what she was going to wear. Finally pulling out a light blue dress that had flared sleeves and slippers to match she realized she might be a little late because of her friend. Morgan then quickly brushed her hair and ran out the door knowing for some reason Angelina was gone already. "Most likely already drooling over Legolas! Ai Elbereth that girl is so asking for it!" she thought. She reached the hall just in time and was motioned to sit next to Angelina and none other than Legolas. Throughout dinner she didn't really bother to listening into conversations. Instead she fell back into her thinking state until Angelina lightly punched her in the shoulder. Morgan looked up to see both Angelina and Legolas looking at her, which made her burst out laughing. Some of the elves looked at her at that and she managed to stop laughing and just grin. They proceeded into the Hall of Fire where various elves told stories and there was dancing. Morgan noticed a certain elf and realized it was Glorfindel. "Wow...I get to see Glorfindel!" Shaking her head at that thought she quietly got up and left without being noticed by Angelina. Although she suspected Legolas saw her.
Angelina didn't notice Morgan was gone until she was ready to retire to bed. "Where has she gotten to I wonder?" she pondered.
"Right here my friend..." Morgan said appearing with her light blue dress blowing slightly in the breeze. Angelina looked at suspiciously and Morgan smiled. One of the twins appeared over Angelina's shoulder and nearly scared her half to death when he spoke.
"So these are the two that I heard about. More so Morgan from my brother." He said. Morgan looked at him but couldn't find a difference between him and his brother.
"Elladan I presume then?" Angelina questioned having heard about Morgan's talk with Elrohir.
"Aye. I hope you both enjoyed yourselves tonight. Although I did see you, Morgan, slip out rather early..." he said. Morgan smiled and blushed a little while Angelina looked at her again.
"Yes, I think we both enjoyed ourselves. As for me leaving early I just need more time to think and some fresh air."
"I see. Well I must retire now since the Fellowship leaves early tomorrow I want to be there to bid them goodbye. Good night!" Elladan said and left right after the two bid him goodnight. Silence followed the walk back towards their rooms and only murmured good nights were said.
In the middle of the night Morgan bolted up in bed for no reason at all. Wide-awake now she tried to figure out why she was awake. Morgan decided to make sure Angelina wasn't awake and was surprised that she hadn't locked the connecting door. Morgan quietly opened it to see Angelina was also awake and was staring into space.
"You're awake too?" Angelina said. Morgan nodded.
"I couldn't get back to sleep for some reason. Do you want to go for a walk with me?" Angelina nodded and they both strolled down the halls of Imladris in their nightgowns for a while. Morgan decided to walk through the gardens and Angelina just followed. Coming upon a small pond they sat on a bench near it and looked at the stars. Throughout the whole walk there had been silence. Both almost died of fright when they felt a hand on their shoulders. Turning around both came upon the gaze of Elrond.
"Could not sleep?"
"Aye, neither of us could. Maybe it was the thought of tomorrow's events that are keeping us awake." Morgan replied. Elrond nodded and sighed. Again Morgan had the feeling he was holding back something important.
"Come I have something to tell you both." He said leading them both to his study. Morgan shivered for no reason and Angelina had a weird look on her face. "Sit." Elrond said and both sat on a couch.
"What is it you have to tell us Lord Elrond?" Angelina asked. Morgan looked like she was off in her own little world again.
"Do you remember any of your past?" he said. Morgan looked at him sharply.
"I remember my family and where I lived. I remember some of what the tell me." Angelina said while Morgan's face got darker.
"I remember nothing of my family." Morgan said bluntly. Angelina flinched. Morgan had been an orphan and been put in a foster home where she was not liked at all. They had not wanted anything to do with her. She mostly stayed with Angelina when she could and hardly told anyone of her family except Angelina. Elrond nodded and frowned slightly.
"Do you remember any farther back? When you were born?"
"I...cannot...think of anything else." Angelina said trying to think of something that would help. Morgan got up and strode toward the balcony.
"Morgan?" She looked back at Elrond. The problem was...she did remember.
"Laughter......beautiful......trees.....the land...." Morgan shook her head as if trying to get rid of a thought. Suddenly her eyes widened. Elrond nodded slightly and Angelina looked confused and concerned.
"We are elves!" Morgan gasped. Angelina was shocked as Elrond nodded again.
"You are.....You are also sisters." Morgan noticed her mouth was open and quickly closed it. "There is more.....you are the daughters of Elbereth and Manwe." At this Morgan sat down very suddenly with a thump with her head in her hands. Silence reigned for quite awhile after that. Angelina sat very still with the same shocked look. Elrond waited patiently. Morgan suddenly stood straight up with a half angry half sad look with tears coursing down her cheeks.
"Why were we on Earth then?! Why not Middle-Earth?! WHY?!" Morgan shouted. Angelina jumped at the sudden out burst and it made her remember what Morgan had been through and she didn't even need to.
Elrond still calm replied, " You were lost in the same storm that brought you back. You had wandered too far in your early days and you were too curious. It was also for protection. Although you didn't know that. Until now." Morgan knew that was the shortened version of it but nonetheless she was still angry. She fled the room and without anyone touching it the door flew open and banged shut after her departure. Angelina sat with her mouth open until Elrond spoke again. "She has quite the right to be angry. Do not go after her yet. Now tell me...If you can...what has happened to her from the past that still haunts her?" Angelina didn't want to break that promise but figured he would find out in time anyways. She slowly began telling him about Morgan's foster family.
After Morgan had reached the bench next to the pond once more the tears had finally stopped flowing. Her nightgown was damp and her anger now gone and she understood. Her foster family was never meant to happen really. She sat on the bench for almost the rest of the night. As dawn came Morgan headed back towards her room only to remember that today they would be leaving. Also with a jolt she remembered that the door had opened all by itself as she fled the room. Odd was the only word she could think of as she reached her room to find clothing and various other objects packed for the journey. Morgan figured it was probably Lailwen who had done it. Quickly she dressed in a green tunic and shirt with green leggings. She smiled because she liked the color green and was just about dressed from head to toe in it. That is except for her boots, which were rather comfortable in her opinion. Morgan quickly grabbed her pack and headed out to meet the rest of the Fellowship. When she did she sought out Riven who she hadn't seen since the fall.
"Hello my friend! How are you?" Riven just rubbed against her. Grinning she caught Angelina's concerned eye. Shaking her head she noticed Elrond motioning to her. Morgan quickly walked over to him.
"I am sorry I shouted at you last night Elrond. I also wanted to thank you for letting me and my sister stay here." Morgan said.
"It's quite alright Morgan. I understand. I also have two things to say to you since you left before I could tell you. Your title back then was Merenwen Lathron Nolatari Sairin Rutha Maani Draugwen and unlike your sister I noticed yours is much longer." He said smiling. Morgan also known as Merenwen now grinned at that. "Second is I want to give you this." He held out a bow with gold engravings on it out to Merenwen and then a quiver, which also had gold engravings. Morgan gasped. Her own bow!
"Thank you, Elrond!" she managed to stammer. Elrond nodded and made way for Elrohir and Elladan. Each held out a dagger to her. Both daggers had a black hilt with silver engravings. Grinning she accepted them and again stammered her thanks.
"Stay out of trouble M-wen" Elrohir said. She laughed at the nickname he gave me before saying farewell. Merenwen then went to thinking until they left. Angelina bumped into her.
"Hello my sister. How are you this fair morning?" Angelina asked.
Merenwen smiled and replied, " Just fine dear sister. Now what is your name may I ask?"
"Cytheria Manfalaswen."
"Wow Elrond was right my name is much longer than yours!" Merenwen laughed and mounted Riven. Merenwen glanced back at Rivendell as they left and figured this was the last time she would see it. Cytheria who was atop Thereon again was thinking the same thing.
That's it for the second chapter! I hope to have the third up soon! If its not asking to much review and tell me what I need to improve!
