How are ya'll doing? Well I hope you are good. I love all you
for your reviews! Thanks a bunch. Moving on, I'm so sorry about the delay.
I couldn't get on to the web site for awhile; my computer was being stupid.
Okay okay, it's my fault too. Damn all you good writers here at fanfiction!
I can't stop reading all of your stories. If everyone could not write then
that would be great. I guess I'll just have to focus. *FOCUS!* Hey I love
feed-back, good bad and random (gotta love randomness). And feel free to
remind me you want me to update, the more reviews the faster I go! By the
way if there are any spelling mistakes let me know because I'll make the
changes and repost.
Tarilenea- Dude you are soooo cool! Reviewing all three of my chapters, you are too cool! I love your story.
Mrs. Ekeena Greenleaf- Thanks a bunch man! I'm glad you like the way I portrayed Mia acting like a complete idiot, I didn't want her to make a complete a** out of herself, not just yet. *cackles evilly*
oremis- Yah! Thank you very much for those typos. Yes me stupid you smart. Hehe anyways
Hunedoara- Hiya chica! Still having a brain fart? I hope you can recover man!
Saiyan-girl-cheetah- Sorry about the cliffhangers bud! It will get better *make the sign of the cross and makes a silent prayer that the story doesn't get screwed up*. Johnny Depp is hilarious: "You will remember this was the day you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrows!"
Starlight- I dunno whether you're still reading, but thanks for reading and reviewing.
Declaimer: I don't own any of ME or J.R.R's characters. However I own Chris, Mia, Mar, Rowyn, Pymbor, Tadriendra and our newest member Cithiel! Welcome to her. *claps*
So here you are, made to your liking (I hope) my next chapter.. ----------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------Chapter 4
Mia awoke with a great yawn. She then proceeded to rub the remaining sands of sleep from her eyes. It seemed that she had just fallen asleep but Mia figured she was quite a bit off. As she stretched she thought over her sleep; it had been a deep slumber, one without premonitions.
They must have given me a sleeping draught there's no way I could have had a deep sleep like that. Or maybe I was just so stressed out and hurt.
Mia looked over the room. She decided that she must have been moved into a different room. It was a tad bigger but that wasn't very important to Mia.
My Lord what is happening to me? This is obviously not a trick or ploy but Middle Earth, man I must be insane or... really insane. And elves!?! The only elves I truly believed in were Santa's helpers and that was back when I was five. They must be the real deal because I think I saw their ears. Damn I wish I had my mother's book maybe it could help me figure out what I am to do. I haven't read it in so long, I have forgotten. Only because I needed to forget her, it was for my own good.
Movement at the door caught her attention and she looked up. Mia saw a head peep in at her and moments later saw an elf maiden come in cautiously.
"Good evening, my Lady." She said politely.
Mia did a slight double take. "Me? Oh good evening to you... ummm.... Lady...."
"My name is Cithiel. I am here to help you bath and dress." Cithiel replied.
"Thanks for the offer but I think I can handle that. Just tell me where to go and I'll be all set." Mia noted a look of confusion on the she-elf's face and quickly added. "But you could help me draw the bath seeing as I am unsure of myself. I am sorry for confusing you; I just have never been doted on like this."
"Of course, my Lady." With that Cithiel bobbed a curtsy and swept off to draw the bath.
A bit bewildered, Mia gingerly slipped out of bed. She was surprised that she only felt sore when she probably should have felt dead. She silently thanked J.R.R Tolkien for making the elves darn good healers. Mia was trying to calculate how long she had been out when..
"My Lady?" Cithiel had returned, breaking up Mia's thoughts.
"Yes? Oh hello again. I was just wondering could you tell me how long have I been out for."
"You have been recovering for two days, milady. Please follow me your bath is ready."
********
"Thank you so much!" Mia exclaimed at the sight of the pool like bathing area. "I can take it from here. No really I think I can handle washing myself, been doing it since I was little."
Cithiel gave her a half smile nodded and left the room.
"Just call if you have any need." Cithiel called over her shoulder.
That had to be the oddest guest Cithiel had ever cared for. Just the girl's appearance was so peculiar; however she had not met many mortals so maybe she wasn't very different. First of all, Mia was very short in stature; Cithiel nearly mistook her for a Halfling when she first saw her. Yet unlike most hobbits she had encountered the girl was a waif, perhaps she had not come of age yet. Then her hair, it was ginger colored yet there were bits of blonde hair that framed her face, almost unnatural. Her face was round and freckles sprayed across her nose and forehead. Mia's eyes were the thing that interested Cithiel the most. They were a washed out blue, it gave the girl a sense of distance. It was like she had lost the spark that most eyes have. Cithiel shook her head and picked up her pace, she was going to have a hard time finding her charge suitable clothing for her size.
********
Mia stripped herself of the bed clothes she had been wearing and moved to the bath. The room was lit with many candles due to the early evening. There also was a full length mirror close by but Mia did feel she was ready to see herself. She was still surprised that she had been asleep for two days; she figured that she needed it. With that she slipped into the water. The large bath felt as good as it looked. To her delight there were soaps lining the outside of the bath and Mia put them to good use and scrubbed her hair and body clean. After the grueling cleansing session Mia relaxed and finally felt content. Her thoughts turned to the elves.
What am I going to tell them? Gee I am a psychic from a world that thinks this land is just fictional, yeah right that'll really work. I guess I could tell them I had fallen down a hill, they might believe that. I am definitely not going to tell them about my dreams; I just don't trust anyone anymore.
That Cithiel seems really kind and sweet I hope I can get to know her better.
Mia smiled. The elf maiden was very careful with her wording, Mia had noticed.
Probably didn't want to offend me. I can tell she found me strange with my appearance and customs.
Cithiel was one of ageless beauty; Mia couldn't tell how old she was but her eye showed much wisdom and understanding. Although she seemed careful of her words Mia didn't know whether she would be as careful gossiping among her friends and family.
With a regretful sigh Mia pulled herself out of the bath and quickly found a towel to dry herself with. She caught a glimpse of a garment of sorts. It seemed to be a nightgown. There was a note attached to it.
Dear Lady Mia,
I write this in common tongue, I hope you will be able to read it. It is late so I have requested that you
take your dinner in your room tonight. The King was most disappointed but accepted my request. He does
hope you will meet with him tomorrow. I will be here shortly but if you have any trouble don't hesitate to call,
help will be there if you need it.
~ Cithiel
Mia was thankful that Cithiel had been so thoughtful; there was no way she wanted to dinner with people, let alone elves right now. But she was shocked to see King written down; she didn't remember that from the books. She looked from the note to the nightwear. Mia slipped it on and wriggled with feminine delight as the soft material against her bare skin made her feel like a princess. As she pulled her tresses of water she realized she was in front of the mirror. She had not really looked at her reflection in a long time she barely recognize anything about herself. So thin and cadaver-like and her freckles stood out, bright spots on her white face. Deep scratches covered her legs and arms but most were slowly healing. The bruises covering her face and various body parts had become yellowish which made her look even sicker. Mia had known that she must look something like this but she was still surprised. She pushed the mirror away and tried to pretend she had not seen it. She focused now on her grumbling stomach.
"Hello? Is there anyone there?" Mia shouted into the hall. "Oh."
Cithiel seemed to materialize in front of her. "Yes milady? You called for me?"
"I was just wondering can I get some grub, please."
The she-elf grinned at this sudden outburst. She nodded and showed Mia the way to her room. The food she had sent for had arrived and the moment Mia saw it, she practically dove in to the platter of food. This rather comical and disturbing display Mia made was quite amusing for Cithiel. When she had finished stuffing her face, she finally came to her senses and found her manners.
"So what's your story?"
Cithiel was mystified for a second. "Pardon, my story?"
"Sorry I'll revise. What's going on in your life?" Mia hoped this late statement wasn't too forward of her.
"Well I've been working in the palace for quite some time now. Helping out here and there. When the King asked if there was anyone willing to care for you, I jumped at the chance. All my little elfings have grown up and my husband now walks in the Halls of Mandos. I had hoped to help care for another, but you seem to not need my help." She added with a touch of sorrow.
"Tomorrow I will leave you for I see you have no need of me."
Mia was shocked; she had not known that caring for her was so important to Cithiel. She didn't mean to give the wrong impress to the elf. "Wait, what are you talking about? Of course I still need you. I. I have no clue how to get around this place. You could be my guild!" She exclaimed.
Cithiel graced Mia with a sight smile. She was happy that Lady Mia had chosen her to help. That's all she had wanted to do for the mortal. Although she didn't say it, Cithiel knew there was something troubling the girl. Lady Mia was simple staring at her hands, lost in her own thoughts Cithiel guessed.
Then she piped up. "Cithiel who was it that found and saved me?"
"Oh why that would be Mar, Rowyn, and Tadriendra. These three found you in the forest, they said you might of received severe damage had Tadriendra not ran for Pymbor, he's our top healer in Mirkwood."
She watched the girl carefully when she asked her how she had come here. Lady Mia stiffened slightly and muttered something incoherent and finally answered her.
"Well I was in these woods and I tripped and fell and then I was here I guess." Mia replied looked everywhere but at Cithiel.
Oh yeah that went well. Thought Mia. She really believed you, yeah right. I didn't even sound sure of myself. Oh well maybe I can pull it off, for a little while. Just until I think of a better story.
"Look I'm feeling very tired, so do you mind if I go to sleep. Tomorrow I really would like to see Mar, Rowyn, Tadriendra, and Pymbor. I also hope you can show me around too." Mia got up a bit too quickly and nearly fell over but righted herself.
Cithiel was concerned about girl.
She is repressing something. I won't pester her tonight but the girl has to let go of this thing that is troubling her. The pain will just grow in her heart.
She nodded her head and bid Lady Mia good night and moved out of the room.
When Cithiel was clearly out of the room and out of earshot she flopped on to the bed and breathed a sigh of relief. She rolled herself into the covers and just lay there. She tossed and turned for a while but finally lay still as sleep claimed her. ------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes! I'm soooo done! Shit I have to be up at 7:00 *yawns* Goodnight ya'll! Beware my spelling sucks at this hour! MUAHAHA! R&R come now I just know you want to! ; )
