Ok word to halfmask: if you haven't even read this, then why are you even calling me a Mary Sue. You don't have to believe me, but I doubt in the end ya'll call this a Mary Sue. Try reading all of it before you diss me.
To Lady Eleclya: I didn't want to see Frodo stabbed! I had to save him! And I'm still wondering why people think the hobbits are gay. Glad you agree with me!
Anyway, I think this chapter might be interesting, I hope you like it. The Council of Elrond should be the next chapter! This is just a setup for Elli and Caitlin.
And on we go!
ELLI'S POV
A maid awoke me in early morning, telling me I had to rise and shine.
"The hour is early, and I apologize for raising you from slumber. But Elrond speaks that the council will be early afternoon, and he wishes to speak to you and your friend before than. Hurry, I have a bath made for you and clothes spread out.
So I washed, and allowed the maid to dress me and comb my hair. I still didn't have proper fighting clothes, so I was stuck with my dress from the day before, which the maid had cleaned and hemmed. She knew my hobbit predicament.
The maid looked at me after she had stopped combing my hair. "There, I think you are ready. I shall show you to Elrond's chamber. She led me out of my room and into sunlit hallways. A small waterfall trickled to the left of the small staircase that we climbed. She led me through another hall, and then stopped in front of a double door.
"Elrond is awaiting you. I take your leave now." I nodded at her as she turned and left, and I then knocked. I heard him summon me from behind the wood doors, and so I opened one of them, unsure of what I'd see. Yet inside was warm with the rays of the sun, and it smelt of the flowery breeze that blew throughout Rivendell. I closed the door and stood in a small library. Elrond stood off on a small balcony, over looking the falls. He turned at the sound of my footsteps, and beckoned me towards him.
"We have not yet met, but you and I happen to know who the other is. You are Lady Elli, of a word called Earth. I am Master Elrond, Lord of Imladris, though my title is far longer than that. I shall not bore you with it though."
"What did you wish to talk to me about," I said. I was curious indeed, and wanted to hurry things along. Elrond apparently noticed my impatience, and had me sit on a chair, taking the one across from me.
"You are here because I wished to speak with you, without your friend present. I do wonder how you got here, but neither you nor your friend knows either. But you do know this story. You know what is going to happen."
He stopped for a moment, eyeing me. I wasn't sure what he was doing, but then he continued.
"Even if you do know the story, it may change its course now that you and Lady Caitlin are involved. But still, you may be useful in some way. Although I don't know how."
Elrond stood up then and wandered back to his balcony. I stayed where I was, sensing that this wasn't going to go well. "Elrond, don't you have foresight? Can't you see what might happen?" My question came out chocked, whispered. I had to know though. He words were freighting me.
He turned to look at me. His face looked grave. "I do, and what I see is not promising. There is a black cloud blocking most of what I need to see. But if you do take this journey, if you do wish to help destroy the Ring of Power, I see much danger for you. You know too much of this story in your world, that it may be altered. Then you may be at a loss. You will know nothing if the story changes."
"I am in danger?" I asked. "How?"
"You are in danger, yes. And you ask 'how?' You are in our world now, and you are capable of rearranging the story in some way. If you do, then you will not know what happens, and that puts your life in danger."
I nodded my head, slightly dumbfounded. "Then what would you have me do?" I asked.
"My heart tells me to look after you and your friends safety. But I also believe it's wise if you help in the destroying of the Ring. I leave the choice to you. If you decide you wish to help, then you may attend the council later. If not, then you'll spend the afternoon with the other hobbits."
My mind raced. Danger? Councils? Altered story? I didn't know my decision. But I also wondered about Caitlin. Would she want to journey south and help? She kind of knew the story. I had to make a choice now, and so I answered him.
"I'm undecided. But I will spend the afternoon with the hobbits."
"Very well," he answered.
A/N: What do you think? I already have the chapter after this finished, but I would like any suggestions you may have. I'm open for opinions! Anyway, review please! Tell me what you think!
