Mâdûr woke early the next morn. She looked up into the sky, even then she could tell that their would be a storm. She heard the shouts of her new friend Glaery. "Come on! I want to go explore!" Mâdûr smiled and looked down at him, and the elf from yesterday who had just appeared. She brought with her, her ebony horse, Ruanna. Mâdûr flew gracefully down from her tree she had claimed as hers. "Hello Glaery, and Gothamin was it?" The elf nodded. "Nice to meet you again buddy ole pal, I ran into your friend here, and I too decided to take a stroll through the woods of Lothlorien. Mâdûr had remembered the day before, oh how she loved the forest. "Well I'm in, lets go!"

Gothamin smiled, and mounted Ruanna. They all set off into the forest. It was a beautiful day, with a bit of wind, and sun shown down on them through the tops of the trees (what sunlight was left that is). They soon came upon a nice river, and decided to take a little swim. "WEEEE!" Mâdûr shouted as she plopped into the water, and water was flung everywhere. Ruanna snorted angrily at the obnoxious beast, which made Gothamin and Glaery laugh. Gothamin leapt into the air, and dove gracefully into the river without the slightest splash. Glaery attempted to do this, but ended up, tripping and falling into the water with a splash that rivaled Mâdûr's. Mâdûr laughed happily. "Aren't you supposed to be an elf, nimble and graceful?" Glaery scowled, and Mâdûr laughed even more.

"Yes you aren't the most graceful are you?" Gothamin said mockingly as she swam around. Glaery scowled one last time before joining Gothamin. Mâdûr grinned and then dove under the water, twirling all about. She found she could hold her breath for fairy long time, which she had never known, considering this was the first time she could remember ever swimming in her life.

They swam for hours happily, and they even had the 'Water Wars'. Surprisingly Ruanna ended up winning. Gothamin also had occasionally grabbed on to Mâdûr's tail and enjoyed the ride. Each time Mâdûr had grinned evilly and had taken Gothamin on a joy rideJ. "I think we should go, storms a brewing" Gothamin said glaring at the sky. There was no longer any sun, and the clouds were the darkest of gray. Gothamin and Glaery got out, but Mâdûr stayed. "Can't we stay longer??" "NO" Gothamin hissed. This beast really did need to listen to its 'peers' *snicker snicker*. Mâdûr sighed and slowly waded towards land.

She was just about to get out when a bolt of lightning struck down upon the water. She was thrown back out of the water, on the other bank. She stumbled to her feet, looking more than a bit shocked. Her fur was frizzle, and she was shaking. "What did I tell you?! Now look what happened!!" Gothamin shouted at the beast.

Gothamin shouted at the beast. Gothamin was about to go and drag that stupid beast to this side, considering she wasn't responding at all, when suddenly, the spot where the lightning hit, started to swirl. Mâdûr stared at it with great interest. "OOOOOOO" Mâdûr mumbled as she walked closer to the swirl. She couldn't help herself. "What are you doing?!" Gothamin shouted. This beast was not the brightest. "Mâdûr what are you doing?" Glaery asked concerned. But she did not respond. "Stop Mâdûr!" He shouted. But still nothing. He ran over to the other side of the shore as quickly as he could, and grabbed her tail, and began to tug. "STOP MADUR!!" She was almost to the swirl now. Gothamin also ran over to help Glaery, but neither of them, could stop the beast. She jumped into the swirl, with Gothamin and Glaery screaming and shouting like heck, still clutching her tail. Ruanna couldn't let her master die! She too jumped into the swirl…and all became a blur…
