CHAPTER 1 ~ Arwen raced through the trees and leapt across a small stream going as fast as her legs could carry her. She stole a quick glance behind her to see how far ahead she was of her pursuer only to trip on an unseen root.
Landing on the forest floor she heard the fast approaching footsteps. She quickly rolled into the bushes beside her for cover; biting her lip in anticipation she waited. Soon enough the man stepped into the elf's' sight and he listened carefully for any sound that would lead him to her location. He turned around slowly to exam the place where Arwen had fallen only mere moments before his arrival.
The elf princess saw her opportunity and sprang from the thicket grabbing the man from behind, tackling him to the ground. Lying on top of him she spoke in his ear, "What's this, a Ranger caught off his guard?"
Aragorn felt her smile against his neck, "How is it that you are the only one who is able to spot me in such a position?" He rolled over as Arwen sat up and he stared at the beautiful sight before him. Though in a tunic, breeches and a cloak Arwen's feminine beauty was stunning. Her alabaster skin was as soft as silk and her long, dark brown hair was messed a bit from running through the woods flowed down to the middle of her back. Bright blue eyes shone back at him as she lay atop him once more.
"No one has studied you more closely than I Estel. Soaking in every detail on how you move or look. Every moment we spend together I do this, so it may remain in my mind forever." She then smiled and placed a quick kiss on his whiskered chin, "It is only then natural for me to spot your weaknesses as well."
Aragorn laughed lightly as he drew his arms around her to hold her close. He cupped her cheek and whispered, "Amen mela lle."
Arwen smiled and pressed her forehead against Aragorn's, "Forever melamin?" though she had no doubt in her mind the answer.
"And ever." He then pressed his lips against her own as they let the time fly by. When they parted Aragorn said, "Why is it that everyone in every race in Middle Earth can't be as happy as we are?"
She looked at Aragorn lovingly and laid her head down on his chest, speaking softly, "If only that Estel. Then you and Frodo would not have to leave on a quest the endangers your life as much as it does."
Aragorn tilted her chin so that she would face him, "I will return to you methlin."
She smiled, "I know. My heart and mind tell me every time that I have doubts. You will face this evil and you will defeat it." Arwen brushed a lock of his hair back behind his ears, "And if you should ever doubt your return just touch this." She said brushing her fingers over the Evenstar pendant that hung around his neck.
Aragorn silently thanked Arwen for her encouraging words and stared in to her eyes, "We must return to Rivendell soon, for your father will suspect something."
"And there is no need to hide it. He knows of our love and there is nothing he can do to stop our hearts." She glanced quickly around the surrounding woods, "But you are right. It is beginning to get late and the woods are not safe is theses recent days." Arwen brushed a light kiss on Aragorn's mouth before standing.
When Aragorn got up he took Arwen's hand and held it protectively on his chest. With his other hand he held her cheek, brushing the sensitive tip of her elven ears. Arwen sighed as Aragorn's hand trailed from her ear, down her cheek and tracing her collarbone. Sending shivers down her spine she drew herself closer to him leaning on his chest she spoke playfully, "Estel, your hands are quite talented."
Aragorn growled deep in his throat getting a rarely heard giggle from Arwen, "I can show you talent." He spoke as his hands quickly went for Arwen's sides, tickling her.
Arwen's knees buckled underneath her in laughter. She broke away from his embrace and ran off back towards Rivendell with Aragorn right behind her. ~ "But that would be one of the last memories we ever shared." Arwen thought as she finished playing the sweet memoir in her mind. Tears streamed down her face as what she had so recently heard sunk in. Aragorn was dead, and she would never see him again.
The surrounding people slowly blurred and faded into total darkness as she fell towards the stone floor in a dead faint.
"Arwen!" Maranwe (an: pronounced. 'mare-en-way') cried as she caught her friend's body before impacting the cold rock. She looked around and called for Legolas. When he arrived a few moments later Maranwe said, "She's fainted. Will she be all right?"
Legolas bent down and felt Arwen's forehead, "She's fainted out of exhaustion and shock. She needs bed rest and a slave."
Maranwe looked up at the blonde elf and spoke sadly, "And Estel."
Legolas frowned and picked Arwen up to bring her to King Theoden, "Unfortunately there is only so much we can do. I am a healer, I can do nothing for those who have already fallen." He looked over at the young girl, "Do you know why she came?"
Maranwe stood and walked besides Legolas, "She told me before she found out. She rode her from Rivendell without word to her father only stopping briefly in Lothlorien to find out from Galadriel where we were."
Legolas turned to Maranwe and nodded as they walked into King Theoden's hall. Laying Arwen down on a fur-covered bench he saw that there were now tears in the half elf's eyes.
"She missed Estel, Legolas. She loved him enough to risk her own life and ride across Middle Earth with nothing but sword and bow! Only to find that he is dead!"
Gimli ran into the room at this point to see Legolas embrace Maranwe as she sobbed into his shirt. He spotted the Lady Arwen on the bench beside them and understood what happened. He shook his head sadly as Legolas looked up at him trying his hardest not to let the tears fall. Their leader was dead. There was no bringing him back after yesterday's events.
~FLASHBACK~
"He took a little tumble off the cliff." The orc spoke. Maranwe gasped and bolted past everyone to the edge of the cliff.
"You lie!" Legolas demanded as he shook the orc. It then gave a sputtered cackle and died. Legolas threw the corpse down to the ground. He looked at it in disgust as he saw a glittering shine. In the palm of the dead orc was the necklace that Aragorn always wore. The Evenstar pendant. Legolas was then pulled sharply from his thoughts as Maranwe screamed.
"ESTEL!"
Legolas ran to the cliff edge and looked over at the swirling waters and jagged rocks below. There was no sign of Aragorn. No one could survive that fall. Gimli was near tears as he looked sadly to the half elf beside him.
Maranwe muttered an elvish curse. Tears welled in her eyes as her grabbed a stone and threw it across the cliff.
King Theoden turned to his men, "Get the wounded on horses! Leave the dead." Legolas turned to him in disbelief. The King of Rohan then stood behind Maranwe and placed a hand on her shoulder, "We need to move on. It is getting late."
She whipped around and glared at him, "How dare you! He had a whole life ahead of him." She snapped, "After all this he was going back home to Rivendell. To Arwen! And all you can say is 'we need to move on'! That is the most selfish thing I have ever heard!" At this point the young warrior could no longer hold back her tears as they tracked down her dir and blood stained cheeks.
Legolas clenched his fist around the Evenstar pendant. He quickly went over to Maranwe and placed a hand on her shoulder. An elf's polite way of saying to stop before she got in trouble.
~END FLASHBACK~
CHAPTER 2
Later that day Maranwe sat in a chair besides Arwen, waiting for her to wake up. What would she do now that Estel had passed? She shuddered at the thought that Arwen might end her life to be with him.
After Legolas and Gimli had comforted her she had fallen asleep as she watched over her dear friend. It was now near mid afternoon and she felt well rested. She faced the sleeping Arwen again and sighed. Arwen was her oldest and closest friend, and she was so sorry for her loss. Maranwe's elf senses then turned on as she heard someone approaching, turning she saw King Theoden walking towards her. Scowling she turned away. She had a high dislike of the King of Rohan for putting his people through the risk of a surprise attack here at Helm's Deep without sending out riders for aid. And yesterday's discussion didn't improve her thoughts of him either.
"Shield Maiden of Rivendell, Daughter of the Steward." Theoden began, "I understand your worries for your friend, and am sorry for her loss, as well as your own."
Maranwe forced herself to look upon him, "How can you say you understand? Arwen and Estel's love is not something you find in every relationship! Arwen loved Estel enough that she gave up her immortality for him! They are repeating the story of Tinuviel and Beren word for word!"
The King of Rohan nodded, "I came to apologize for my words yesterday. For they were a bit harsh and I should not of said them. I didn't know that you and Aragorn were so close."
Maranwe was shocked. Most kings would never apologize to someone below their own level. Slowly she said, "I accept your apology King Theoden. And I say my own. I shouldn't have snapped at you." She then bowed respectively at him.
"Go and eat. For you haven't since breakfast. I will watch the Daughter of Elrond and send for you immediately when she wakes." Maranwe stared at him for a minute and then at the sleeping Arwen. Slowly she smiled and turned to head to the dining hall. For she was quite hungry.
When she stepped out on the wall she looked down at the quickly formed crowd around the entrance. She spotted Gimli pushing his way to the center of the crowd where he embraced a man that looked an awful lot like.. Maranwe's mouth fell open in shock and amazement and took of toward the entrance. Just as she arrived Gimli was shoving back through the crowd clearing the way for-
"ESTEL!" Maranwe cried. He looked up to see her and smiled. She ran up to him and embraced him tightly.
Returning the hug, he said, "How's my favorite half elf?"
Pulling back Maranwe smiled, "Never better" she looked over Estel, he sustained a shoulder injury and several cuts and bruises, but other than that he looked fine.
"Do you know where the king is?" Aragorn then asked her, "I need to speak to him."
Maranwe nodded, "He's in the hall." He thanked her and then ran off. Gimli came and stood next to her.
"Didn't tell him about the Lady Arwen I suppose, eh?"
"He'll find out soon enough." She turned and grinned at the dwarf, "Let us go and watch!" Gimli grinned back in return and the two of them took off to the royal hall.
Aragorn made his way up the stairs and went to turn for the hall but was stopped. He looked up to see Legolas staring at him.
"You're late." He said in elvish. Once he had a quick look over the ranger he added in the common tongue, "You look terrible."
Aragorn broke into a grin and laughed, clapping his friend on the shoulder. Legolas smiled, he was glad he was back.
From the other side of the entrance The White Lady of Rohan, Eowyn turned, grief written all over her face. She had taken quite affection for Lord Aragorn in the past few days only to have him fall in battle. Scolding herself she thought. "You never had a chance with him to begin with." It was quite obvious that he was still in love with the women who gave him that necklace. Even though she was sailing away to the Undying Lands as he had told her.
She walked slowly through the crowded entrance, her eyes searching for her uncle. She needed to spill her bottled up mourning to a familiar face. She swore she would tell no soul how she felt about Aragorn, but since yesterday.
Her blue eyes suddenly spotted a familiar face. Not her uncle but- Aragorn! He was alive! It couldn't be, but yet there he stood talking to the Prince of Mirkwood. She stepped towards him to greet him but stopped as the blonde elf held something out to the ranger in his hand.
Aragorn glanced down and took the object from Legolas's palm. He sighed happily, it was the Evenstar pendant. He thought he had lost it forever. Looking back at his friend he smiled, "Thank you." He said in elvish. Legolas smiled, he knew how mush that necklace meant to him and he was happy to return it. But he sensed someone else wasn't.
Eowyn stood nearby; she took in a deep breath and walked past them into the Great Hall. Once she shut the heavy doors behind her she found her uncle, Gimli and Kayleigh in the far corner talking to a women. She wasn't from Rohan; she didn't have the blonde or red hair of one. Her hair was long and dark brown, the color of Maranwe's, the Shield Maiden of Rivendell. It then hit her. Rivendell.she was an elf. Eowyn slowly made her way across the huge hall to introduce herself.
Maranwe hugged the now awake Arwen. The days event had replayed in the elf princess's nightmares and she needed comfort, "Everything will be all right Arwen." She said with a wink to Gimli who smiled.
Arwen sobbed silently into her dear friends shoulder when suddenly the doors entering the Great Hall began to open. Glancing up she saw through teary eyes a rugged, shaggy haired, unshaven man pushing through the heavy doors (AN: yep folks just like in the trailer^^). He wore an elven cloak from Lothlorien and about his neck and Evenstar pendant. Her eyes widened as she broke form Maranwe's embrace and ran towards the man.
"ESTEL!" she cried.
Aragorn looked up to his elvish name. For it was not Maranwe that called him so it could only be-his eyes focused in on the vision he saw running towards him.
Eowyn was quite shocked to suddenly see the new elf take off and run across the hall. As she yelled Estel, Eowyn turned to see Aragorn enter the room. The brown haired elf rushed past her as things went together in Eowyn's mind.
Arwen jumped into a very shocked Aragorn's embrace and kissed him with all the love and passion she held inside her form these past three months. Though in shock he quickly intensified the kiss as he ran his fingers through her silken hair. When they eventually separated due to lack of air Aragorn cupped Arwen's face in his palms.
"Arwen." he breathed, "is it really you?" Arwen smiled and nodded tears of happiness flowing freely down her face.
"What are you doing here?" he questioned, "You are supposed to be sailing to the Undying Lands."
Arwen covered his hands in her own as he held her face and said, "And you are supposed to be dead, but that didn't happen either."
Aragorn laughed softly and kissed her again, holding her face gently. From the other side of the room Maranwe, Gimli and now Legolas smiled at the reunited couple. King Theoden was glad of Aragorn's return but the couple then separated and walked towards them he could tell something was wrong with him.
Eowyn could deal with no more of this. She needed air. She quickly walked from the room and left through the other entrance to take a walk through Helm's Deep. Thoughts of anger and confusion ran through her head as she wandered around aimlessly.
An elf? How could he love an elf? Their love would only last until Aragorn passed and she would be off with her next lover. Just seeing the two of them together then made her blood boil. Couldn't Aragorn see that she would make him so much happier? She could battle beside him while that elf wench.looked so weak and frail. Biting her lip she scowled. Who was she trying to fool? It was obvious that the two wouldn't be separated from one another. Tears welled in her eyes as she continued to attempt clearing her head.
