A/N: This is the last chapter. I have enjoyed writing this and I hope you have enjoyed reading. I am thinking of a sequel; however, but I'm not sure.
Chapter 6
A Sad Goodbye
Aragorn sat talking with Elrond. It was early in the morning and a few birds chirped loudly. Elrond had not found out too much from Amras. The orcs did not seem to have any pattern to their attacks. All the facts were the same. The orcs attacked the town without warning. They killed everyone in the town and burned all the buildings. Some unlucky few were taken captive and were hardly ever seen again.
Aragorn sighed.
"Tell me what you are thinking, Estel?" Elrond asked.
Aragorn looked up. "I just wish there was more I could have done for Reallan." He replied.
Elrond nodded. "You have done what you could. Do not blame yourself for any fate you could not control."
Aragorn nodded.
"Good morning, Strider." Reallan said as she walked by them. Her voice sounded sad and weary.
Aragorn turned toward her. "Good morning, Reallan." Aragorn said trying to sound joyful.
Reallan walked toward him. "My brother said we are going to leave in a few moments." She said sadly.
Aragorn nodded.
"I don't know why we can't stay, since our town has been destroyed." Reallan continued.
"You will find a place, Reallan. I think your brother is going to head towards Gondor." Aragorn said as he pulled her up on his lap.
Reallan nodded. "That's what Amras said. I never have liked the city of Gondor though." She smiled and whispered, "It would be better if you were there as King."
Aragorn raised an eyebrow at her.
Reallan smiled mischievously. "Itarilde told me. I kept asking about you, so she finally told me your story. Don't worry! I won't tell anyone. Your secret is safe with me."
Aragorn smiled.
"There you are Reallan." Igrid said as he approached them. "We've been looking all over for you." He took Reallan's hand and began to walk outside.
Aragorn stood and followed them.
"Are you ready to go, Reallan?" Amras asked as he saw them.
Reallan shook her head. "I must say goodbye to everyone first."
"Well, make it quick. We have a long journey ahead of us." Amras replied.
Reallan sadly nodded. She ran to Ninde and hugged her tightly. Tears began streaming down her face as she said goodbye to those she had met. When she came to Elrond, she thanked him for letting her stay in Rivendell. Elrond told her she could come anytime.
Then she approached Aragorn lastly. Aragorn bent down on a knee and she embraced him.
"I'm going to miss you." She whispered to him.
"I'll miss you, too." Aragorn said as a tear slipped down his cheek.
"I love you, King Aragorn." She whispered in his ear so no one else could hear.
Aragorn smiled and let go of her. "Navaer melon nin."
Reallan managed a smile then walked toward her brother. He picked her up and placed her on his horse. Then he walked to Aragorn.
"Thank you again for saving Reallan and for your kindness toward her." Amras said.
Aragorn nodded.
Amras quickly mounted behind Reallan and turned his horse. Reallan looked back one more time. She would miss Rivendell and all the elves in it, but she would miss Aragorn the most.
Aragorn watched silently as they left. He turned around to see tears on many of the elves' faces. In just a short time she had made many friends. He hoped he would see her again one day and something told him he would.
