Chapter Three
Ali sat down as Lord Elrond asked and waited for him to speak again. She wondered what he wanted to speak to her about.
Elrond paced around for a few minutes before sitting in a seat across from Ali.
"What is it that you want of me, Lord Elrond?" Ali asked.
"Well, I wanted to talk to you about the Fellowship of the Ring," Elrond said.
"Aragorn told me as we walked here, so all's not to worry. May I go now? I really must try and get back to where I came from," Ali said hurriedly.
Elrond looked at Ali sternly and she fell silent. She figured it was more important than what Aragorn had said. More than what she figured it actually was. Best to keep her mouth shut and let Elrond speak.
"Aragorn told you a little bit?" Elrond asked.
"Yes, sir. He said there were nine companions. That Frodo came here several days ago with him and three other hobbits with a Ring that is dangerous and the only way to have it unmade is to take it to where it was actually made- Mordor," Ali informed Elrond.
"And Aragorn is right. The One Ring must be taken back to the fiery chasm from whence it came and be unmade. And that's what this Fellowship is for. To help Frodo bear it to Mordor as far as they will."
That's right.that's what they said in the movie. Frodo and nine companions left Rivendell to go destroy the One Ring of Power Ali thought with realization.
"You seemed to have known this already, Miss Ali," Elrond said curiously.
Ali looked up at Elrond's face. "Hmm? No, of course not. What makes you think such a thing, Lord Elrond?"
"I can see it on your face. You know something about this quest. Would mind telling me about you? For instance, where you came from, why you are here and the like?"
Ali's stomach lurched. How could she tell Lord Elrond that she wasn't from this place, wasn't from this country, the whole of Middle Earth itself? That she was from a different world? He would probably classify her as a nutcase and send her off to the mental ward.
Elrond looked at Ali kindly. "I'm not going to get mad at you. I'll believe every word you say, don't you worry."
Ali sighed. She might as well tell him. "Well, you see there's this world that I live in called Earth, you see? And there are different countries and I live in one called the United States of America. One day, I was walking home from school with two of my friends."
Ali told Elrond her story and answered all the questions he asked, or at least to the best of her abilities without giving away too much, even though Ali thought she said a bit too much. But she had a feeling to trust Lord Elrond. After she told her story, Lord Elrond leaned back in his chair thoughtfully for a few minutes. To Ali, he seemed more wearied and older than he was a minute ago.
"I still have a feeling that you've known about this quest and everything that's going to happen," Lord Elrond stated.
"Perhaps, Lord Elrond, but I'm only a girl. I don't know everything. And even if I did know about it before this, I wouldn't remember half of it. I wasn't that much interested in it when I learned about it," Ali said.
"I understand, Miss Ali," Elrond said. He was back in his thoughtful state and another few minutes lapsed. Ali shifted uncomfortably.
Soon Elrond spoke again. "Ali, would you consider joining with the Fellowship?"
Ali looked up at Elrond quickly. "I beg your pardon? I mustn't have heard you correctly. Did you say join up with the Fellowship?"
"Just that, Ali. I figure you can help the Fellowship in some shape or form. Perhaps boosting their moral along the way? I have a feeling that Fellowship will break and if you can boost their moral and give them woman advice, they won't break," Elrond pronounced.
"But I can't join the Fellowship!" Ali cried. "It's utterly impossible, Lord Elrond. I'd be the only woman in it and don't you think people would look at me kinda funny? And anyways, I have to figure out how to get home. I can't stay here."
"I understand, Lady Ali. But you have to trust me on this one. It's like a message, that you were sent here at the right time to help the Fellowship. Trust me on this one; I have my instincts. I don't know how this will work out, or anything. But would you go, for me?" Elrond begged.
Ali sighed for the millionth time. "Will it get me home in the end?"
"I don't, Lady Ali. I truly don't know. Just go, for me, please. But I have this uncanny sense that you should go." Elrond stated.
"I guess I have no other choice, do I? But I will go, if it's to keep the Fellowship together in the end," Ali said.
"I thank you, Alexandria Wimund. Your actions are greatly appreciated. And they just might change the course of the future," Elrond said.
Ali nodded, then stopped and glanced at him. "How did you know what my full name is?"
"Why, Miss Larien told me about it while you were out walking," Elrond said, smiling down at Ali.
Ali just rolled her eyes. She couldn't keep anything between anybody.
"I should suspect you would like to go pack some things for the journey. You have my leave," Elrond said.
"Yes, sir," Ali exclaimed and she got up, bowed slightly and left the room to go scrounge up some clothes and whatever else she needed. Then muttering to herself she said, "You're getting yourself in a heck a lot more than you asked for, Ali. Let's hope this isn't a too deep of a hole that you're jumping into and that it's not too much trouble."
A/n: Well here's chapter three. I hope everybody likes it.
Ashes Kittyhawk- thanks for the review! Yeah, there are three chapters, but they have showed themselves on fanfiction yet. Be patient. And I'll update soon. ^^
