The fellowship stayed in Lothlorien for a month resting their weary legs before they were to set out again on their quest to destroy the ring. The Lady had given each member of the Fellowship gifts and bid them farewell, as did Lily. The young hobbits found her stories so entrancing.
"I sure am going to miss your stories." Samwise said to Lily as she bid him farewell. She smiled at him; he had been the sweetest and most curious hobbit.
"When your quest has ended I shall tell you many more tales of where I am from. That I promise Samwise the brave." Lily said. Sam smiled she had given him the name for all the courage she could feel in his heart. She said her farewell to all the hobbits and Gimli who still could not look her in the eye he found her almost as beautiful as the Lady.
Next she came to Aragorn. She stood in front of him and for a brief second she saw what was to come for him. Aragorn reached his arm out to steady her and Lily took in a shaky breath and looked to her brother.
"What did you see?" Aragorn asked her. Lily tried to piece everything back together. Galadriel warned her from telling people what she saw it could change the events from happening as they are supposed to.
"You are going to be presented with a choice. The wrong one will destroy everything. Beware of this and follow your heart ignore what others wish you to do. You will know the right choice." Lily said looking into his eyes. He nodded to her and finally Lily came to face Legolas. She stood facing him and she placed her hand atop his heart and he mimicked her action their heads bowing together. She smiled at him and no words were needed between the two. He placed a kiss on her lips before the Fellowship climbed into their boats and paddled away down the river.
Willow looked over the piece of paper she held in her hands for the tenth time. She put the paper down to see several anxious faces staring at her.
"I've got it, well I think I do. The spell to find where she is and in theory the spell will grant us the ability to talk with her." Willow said. Buffy smiled and hugged her friend. "Ok yay for hugs but I need to breathe." Willow said with a laugh. Buffy smiled and then let Willow continue. "Ok Xander get the ingredients on the list." Willow said.
"Never fear ingredient gathering Xander is here, after this I plan on making my usual donut run." Xander yelled as he disappeared into the magic shops aisles.
"Ok Buffy, I need you and Dawn to sit where she was taken and link hands. The blood of her sisters should be what finds her." Willow said. Buffy nodded and she and Dawn sat across from one another and held hands. "Here we go." Willow said and with that she began the spell. She had only been speaking for a few seconds when a light went through her and then surrounded Buffy and Dawn.
"Buffy." Dawn yelled scared. Buffy held onto her sister's hands as hard as she could. They could here Willow muttering in a different language and then Buffy and Dawn blacked out.
