Aragorn then walked over towards her. "Emily what kind of weapon are you bringing with you?" he asked worried that she didn't have one. "Oh I totally forgot do you think there is anywhere I can get a sword. My wand isn't always enough to protect me." She asked him. Quickly he pulled out another sword. It was beautiful and it had good luck inscribed in elvish along the blade. "Oh wow!" was all Emily could say. She thanked Aragorn profusely as she put it back in its sheathe around her waist. She quickly went back to her seat to show Legolas her new weapon. As Aragorn surveyed this group of people he let a small chuckle escape his lips. This was going to be one interesting adventure $#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$# $#$#$#$#$#
They had set out that morning at a rather slow pace. No one was really talking as they walked along the dirt paths that wound themselves around beautiful trees and plants that lined the road. So Emily dug around the front pocket of her black book bag to find her portable CD player. It already had a good CD in it so she didn't bother changing it. Quickly she pressed the play button and then searched for her one of her favorite songs on the CD. The CD was AFI's Answer That and Stay Fashionable the song was I wanna get a Mohawk (but my mom won't let me get one.)
She quietly started to sing along with the song. "I may be 10 years old but I still know what's up. I wear my Gramps shirt almost every single day. I wanna sag my pants, I wanna pogo dance, But mom won't let me so I might just run away.
I wanna ride my skate, I wanna stay out late, I wanna a mohawk But my mom won't let me get one."
Legolas who had put his arm around her waist interrupted Emily mid song. "What is that thing and what are you singing?" He asked curiously. Emily pressed the stop button and faced him as they continued walking. "This," she said pointing to her Walkman, "is a CD played. It plays music." She answered him. "And I was singing I wanna a Mohawk (but my mom won't let me get one.)" Emily said with a smile appearing on her face. She thought it was so cute that he was interested in what she was doing. Seeing as how obviously Legolas was wide awake now she put her CD player away. "So how far do we have to walk today?" Emily asked not really having a clue how far this Mordor place was. " Oh, we're going to walk until noon when while break for lunch. Then we'll walk until it turns dark." He replied looking at her face to see her reaction to that. " Ok well then it's a damn good thing I wore my best walking shoes or you all would have been sick of complaining real soon." Emily said with a giggle.
For the rest of time until they would stop for lunch Legolas and Emily hung back and talked. About an hour before noon Emily and Pippin started to complain that they were hungry. Oh boy I hope it's not like this every day! Thought every one else in the group. So when they stopped and pulled out their food of coarse Pippin and Emily were done within minutes of sitting down. They had stopped in a clearing surrounded by Very old mystical trees that would keep them hidden. Every one else was still resting so Legolas and Emily decided to go take a walk a little off the path they were on. They told every one they would be back shortly.
Legolas took Emily's hand and laced his fingers through hers. They were walking and talking about nothing in general when they walked into another clearing with a huge log in the center. So they walked over to it and sat down. It was a really beautiful clearing. It has many wild flowers that were all sorts of vibrant colors, and many tall trees shading the area. "Wow this looks like picture from a fairy tale book!" Emily exclaimed quietly. All of the sudden she was kinda nervous. So she started rambling on. Legolas just smiled and closed the space between them, silencing her with a kiss. Soon they were having a full on make-out session right there in that little romantic clearing. But once again they were interrupted. This time by the shouts of their friends. Quickly they straitened out their clothes and went running back to where they had stopped to rest.
They didn't like what they saw. Orcs were attacking from all over the place. Quickly they jumped into action. Emily was hexing every orc in site and Legolas was shooting them with his arrows. With the help of every one else they quickly demolished all of the orcs.
"We have lingered here far too long, we must start back on our path quickly. Who knows how many more orcs could be coming." Aragorn solemnly told the group. So they all dashed around packing up anything that they had gotten out. Then they all began walking again. This time a little ways off the road so that they were not such an easy target.
By nightfall on that first day every one was extremely tired. They had stopped in what looked like a dried up riverbed. They didn't dare build a fire because that could attract unwanted visitors, such as orcs, spies, and wild beasts. Aragorn who had kind of become the unofficial leader volunteered to take the first watch over the group while they slept. Then it would be Legolas and Emily, and then Gandalf. Emily and Legolas pushed their sleeping mats close to each other so that they could talk for a little while and not disturb any one who was trying to sleep. After a little while of talking Emily decided she was kinda tired so she and Legolas went to sleep for a few hours before they had to get up and take over the night watch for Aragorn. When he came over and woke them up Emily was not a very happy camper. She was actually kind of grumpy. Both men just laughed at her which made her even more grumpy. Eventually she woke up and wasn't grumpy. Quietly Legolas and Emily walked over a little ways from the group so that they could talk and not be heard. Emily looked to the stars. "Wow, the stars are so bright here. Back home there was a lot of pollution so you couldn't really see the stars too well." She commented wistfully. Tears formed in her eyes. It had just struck her, she was really home sick for her brother and her warm bed in her dorm and her friends. As much as she loved spending time with Legolas it wasn't the same.
"What's wrong?" Legolas asked when he noticed the silent tears falling in trails down her face. She turned to look at him and she just asked him to hold her. He didn't know what else to do so he complied with her wish. Sobs started to wrack her whole body. Eventually after many comforting words and pats from Legolas she stopped crying. "Can you tell me what's wrong now?" He asked her quietly and softly not wanting to upset her anymore. Emily nodded her head and inhaled then exhaled deeply. "Well I was looking at the stars and I got this empty feeling, and then it hit me. I'm really homesick for all the people I left back in my world. I miss them all a lot." She said in a voice barely over a whisper. Legolas just nodded and held her again. The sat like that until it was time to get Gandalf up for his watch.
When Emily lay back down Legolas pulled her closer and put his strong arms around her. So slowly she drifted off to sleep. But not all of her dreams were pleasant. They were filled with scenes of Voldemort killing her brother and her friends. Or of the night her parents died. After a while she gave up her dreams of awfulness and just decided to stay awake. As the sun rose she got up and started to pack up all of her things so that she could be ready whenever they decided to leave. And as every one began to rise she put on a fake smile and pretended none of these thoughts had ever taken place. Just like she always did when thoughts like these ever came to her.
A/N: Thanks to all who have reviewed the story so far. I know this chapter is kinda pointless but I needed to show what the daily routine was like. So plz keep reviewing! It means a lot to me.
