Thanks for reviewing people. Now the counsel will begin. Let´s get started.
Joyce woke up the next morning her toughts on Legolas. She jumped out of bed and took a quick bath. She dressed in a baggy black pants and a black shirt. Pulling a comb trough her hair she put it in it´s usual ponytail again.
She walked from her room toward the dinningroom. When she got there she noticed that she was the only one exept for 2 hobbits. "Have you seen anybody else?" She asked them. "Yes but they were done pretty fast. By the way what is your name?. I am Merry and this is my friend Pippin." "My name is Joyce. I am sure I will see you again but I have to go now." Joyce answerd when the bell rang indicating that the counsel was about to begin. She grabbed some toast before running off toward the counsel. If she would have turned around she would have noticed that the 2 hobbits where following her. They just had trouble keeping up with the fast girl.
When she enterd the part of Rivendell where the counsel was held, she saw Aragorn sitting in a chair at the end of the circel. Frodo smiled at her when she walked past him and she smiled back. When she walked over to Aragorn he pulled out another chair and said to her "Come sit next to me." She then sat down. On the other side where Legolas was sitting he had spotted her and smiled and waved for about a second. Joyce smiled back at the Elf before turning her gaze back to Aragorn who was watching with a amused look in his grey eyes."I see you found a new friend" He wisperd in her ear. "I hope so" She wisperd back. She saw Elrond walking over to her. She stood up to ask him what he wanted. "Come, the counsel most know who you are. Come stand next to me."
"Strangers from distant lands, friends of old. You have been summoned to answer the threat of Mordor. Middle-earth stands upon the brink of destruction. None can escape it. You will unite, or you will fall. Each race is bound this fate, this one doom. First of all standing next to me is Joyce. She is the one who protects the earth from destruction and she is also summond to this counsel." "You can sit down now, my child" He then wisperd in her ear. "Bring forth the Ring, Frodo." Frodo placed the Ring on the table in the middle of the circel. "So it is true." Boromir said. "In a dream, I saw the eastern sky grow dark. But in the West a pale light lingered. A voice was crying: "Your doom is near at hand. Isildur's Bane is found. " He said reaching over and amost touching the ring. "Boromir" Elrond snapped. "Ash Nazg durbatulûk..."( "One Ring to rule them all") Gandalf said
A Shadow comes over the Council. Boromir draws back in fear, and Gimli shouts, reaching for his axe. Elrond puts his hand to his head, Legolas closes his eyes, and Frodo looks fearfully to the Ring.
"...Ash Nazg gimbatul. Ash Nazg thrakatulûk agh Burzum-ishi krimpatul" ( One Ring to Find them. One Ring to bring them all and in the Darkness bind them.) "Never before has any voice uttered the words of that tongue here in Imladris." Elrond says. "I do not beg your pardon, Master Elrond. For the Black Speech of Mordor may yet be heard in every corner of the West! The Ring is altogether evil." Gandalf answerd panting slightly. Joyce watched the display with mixed emotionals. On one side she learned to trust Gandalf but on the other side she was maybe not so scared as the rest of them but she certenly was scared. "It is a gift. A gift to the foes of Mordor." Boromir says standing up. "Why not use this Ring? Long has my father, the Steward of Gondor kept the forces of Mordor at bay by the blood of our people are your lands kept safe. Give Gondor the weapon of the enemy. Let us use it against him!"
"You cannot wield it. None of us can. The One Ring answers to Sauron alone. It has no other master." Aragorn answers him. "And what would a Ranger know of this matter?" Boromir asked. "This is no mere Ranger. He is Aragorn, son of Arathorn. You owe him your allegiance." Legolas answers for Aragorn standing up. "Aragorn? This is Isildur's heir?" Boromir asked looking as if something bad happend. "And heir to the throne of Gondor." Legolas spoke again. Joyce could see Aragorn didn´t like that Legolas was telling Boromir who Aragorn really is. "Havo dad, Legolas"("Sit down, Legolas.") He replied to the Elf. Legolas looked at Joyce. She nodded and he sat down. "Gondor has no king. Gondor needs no king." Boromir said coldly with a look of anger toward Legolas and and then sat down again.
"Aragorn is right. We cannot use it." Gandalf said simply. "You have only one choice. The Ring must be destroyed." Elrond took over from Gandalf. "What are we waiting for?!" One of the dwarfs says before trying to smash the Ring with his axe, but breaks the axe. He is thrown backwards, onto the ground. "The Ring cannot be destroyed, Gimli, son of Gloin, by any craft that we here possess. The Ring was made in the fires of Mount Doom. Only there can it be unmade. It must be taken deep into Mordor, and cast back into the fiery chasm from whence it came. One of you must do this." Elrond says while looking all the members off the counsel in the eyes. "One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its black gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep. And the great Eye is ever- watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust. The very air that you breathe is a poisonous fume. Not with ten thousand men could you do this. It is folly." Boromir replies running a hand over his eyes. "Have you heard nothing Lord Elrond has said? The Ring must be destroyed!" Legolas says standing up again. "And I suppose you think you're the one to do it?!" Gimli shouts standing up also. Joyce can clearly hear the anger in his voice toward the elves. "And if we fail, what then? What happens when Sauron takes back what is his?" Boromir askes stading up. "I will be dead before I see the Ring in the hands of an Elf!" Gimli shouts. Everybody exept Frodo, Joyce and Aragorn stand up. Joyce can see Legolas is holding back the elves he brought from Mirkwood so that they won´t attac the dwarfs. "Never trust an Elf!" Gimli shouts. Joyce closes her eyes before wispering to Aragorn. " How long did they last?" The man just merely smiles. "Do you not understand? While you bicker amongst yourselves, Sauron's power grows! None can escape it! You'll all be destroyed!" Gandalf says trying to get above the shouts of the other counsel members.
Joyce looks toward Frodo who is looking at the Ring as if hearing something. She sees him standing up and she knows what he will do. He will take the ring. About a second later the word follow. "I will take it! I will take it!" He says when all the people stop and turn around to listen to him. "I will take the Ring to Mordor... though I do not know the way" Gandalf smiles and walks over to him and says. "I will help you bear this burden, Frodo Baggins. As long as it is yours to bear." Aragorn stand up and for a second look at Joyce before walking over. "If by my life or death, if I can protect you, I will." He kneels before Frodo. "You have my sword." Joyce also stands up and walks over. "No matter what Frodo. I will protect you. Even if it will cost me my own life." "And you have my bow." She hears Legolas saying. "And my axe." Gimli comes to stand next to Legolas. Who doesn´s looks to happy about it.
"You carry the fates of us all, little one. If this is indeed the will of the Council, then Gondor will see it done." Boromir says walking over. "Here!" Sam shouts jumping up from behind some bushes he has been hiding behind, and runs up from behind them, causing Aragorn to lift his hand off Frodo's shoulder, to let Sam come through. "Mr. Frodo's not going anywhere without me."
"No, indeed, it is hardly possible to separate you from him, even when he is summoned to a secret Council, and you are not." Elronds jokes. Sam blushes a bit. Merry and Pippin, who are standing in the entrance. "Oi! We're coming too! " Merry and Pippin leave the door, and half run towards Frodo. "You'll have to send us home tied up in a sack to stop us." Merry says to Elrond. Pippin answers"Anyway, you need people of intelligence on this sort of mission. Quest. Thing." "Well that rules you out, Pip." Merry says. "Ten companions. So be it! You shall be the Fellowship of the Ring." Elrond says looking content. "Great. Where are we going?" Pippin asks. Joyce rolled her eyes. "This counsel is done now. The rest of the information will be given to the Ringbearer and the fellowship in private tomorrow." Elrond said.
Joyce wanted to walk away when a hand on her arm stopped her. She turned around expecting to see Gandalf but it was Legolas who was stopping her. "Can I have a word in private please?" The Elf asked blushing a bit. Joyce nodded and led him to one of the many gardens in Rivendell.
"What do you want to talk about?" She asked Legolas. The Elf looked her in the eyes and held her gaze. Joyce could feel that she was beging to drow into his eyes again just like yesterday. Legolas brought his face closer to that of her. "O my god. He is going to kiss me." Joyce tought to herself. When there face where inches apart she closed her eyes. She could geel Legolas his hot breath against her lip and nose.
Will they kiss? Find out in the next chapter. Please review. Smirkes yes I am mean.
