A/N: Stupid QuickEdit is messing up my chapters...Grumbles

It has come to my attention that some of you have not read the books and have no idea who a few of these people are. So, without further ado...PROFILES! Confetti

Glorfindel: He is a warrior of Imladris (A general, I think), and in the books HE was the one who found Aragorn and the Hobbits and brought Frodo across the Ford. NOT ARWEN! In fact, in the books, Arwen does not even appear until the very last chapters of Return of the King. Her part was blown up for the movies. It is also thought that Glorfindel is the reborn Glorfindel of Gondolin, who died after slaying a balrog with his friend Ecthelion. This will be the belief in this story. Glorfindel means 'Golden-haired Elf.'

Erestor: The chief counselor of Elrond's household at the time of the War of the Ring, who took part in the Council of Elrond. He did not support the idea of destroying the Ring, and preferred instead the notion of guarding it from Sauron, perhaps with the aid of Tom Bombadil. (Source: EncyclopediaofArda.com)

Elladan and Elrohir: Twin sons of Elrond. Originally went with Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas into the Paths of the Dead. (The Dunedain went too.) Fought at Pellenor fields. Also a note: This takes place after the War of the Ring, and before Elrond, Galadriel, and so on so forth, passed into the west.

Tathar: A warrior of Eryn Lasgalen. He is also an OC. This means he's mine, no touché, unless I give you permission.

Chapter 11

Sneaky Twins and Unknown Facts.



The senshi had been wandering around the palace halls for hours, and had yet to find any way out.

They were beginning to lose their tempers. In fact, some were showing some unusual behavior for their normally calm exteriors.

"ENOUGH OF THIS!"

Startled out of their individual grumbling, the senshi turned to see a fuming Michiru holding up her henshin pen. "NEPTUNE CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!"

A bright flash came, and the senshi were forced to cover their eyes. When the light died down, Sailor Neptune stood there in all her glory. "Well," she said, eyebrow raised, "what are you waiting for?" The senshi all smiled, and cried out in unison...

"URANUS CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!"

"PLUTO CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!"

"JUPITOR CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!"

"MERCURY CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!"

"MOON ETERNAL POWER, MAKE UP!"

...all, except Minako

When the transformations were complete, they all stared at her.

"Um," She began nervously, "I kinda...um..."

"You forgot it, didn't you?" Asked a rather PO'ed Makoto.

Minako sighed, and nodded. "I think I left it at the shrine."

The senshi all exchanged looks. Then they noticed what Minako was wearing.

"Queen Venus!" exclaimed Sailor Uranus, "Minako, why...HOW did you change into that form?"

Minako looked confused, "I don't know. It happened when I was pushed into the room by Thranduil-san's guards."

"It is because of your desire to protect, and lead," broke in Sestuna, "Somehow, your subconscious realized that you would not be able to fight unless you became the Queen of Venus."

Usagi looked awed, "Wow," she said, "convenient."

"Enough chitchat!" screamed Jupiter, "Let's blast our way through! SUPREME

THUN-"

"DARO!"



"You remember, at the council earlier, that it is believed that Sauron somehow escaped his fate and is waiting for his chance at revenge." Began Elrond...

Flashback

After Elrohir and Glorfindel arrived at the council, it was not long before the others came in as well.

"Darkness is coming." Erestor had not had such a look of helplessness since the War of the Ring.

"Yes, but there is also a light," said Elrond, "the power, that I am sure that you all have felt, came from the Lost Ones."

"So there is still hope." Glorfindel stated.

"Yes"

"But what can we do?" asked Elladan, "I will not just stand here helplessly."

Elrond gained a strange look on his face, "None of us want that. But for now, we will resume our normal lifestyles until more information comes."

"But do we know who it is that has returned? Is it Melkor?" Inquired Elrohir.

"No," Elrond shook his head, "It is Sauron, I am sure of it"

They all stood in silence. And slowly, one by one, they left.

End Flashback

Elrohir and Elladan nodded in unison. "But why have you refused to allow us to leave our home?" demanded Elladan.

Elrond sighed, and his thoughts drifted back towards his vision he had had earlier that morning. "It is my belief that Sauron is after the heirs to the elven realms. This means that you two, and Legolas, are in danger." Elladan began to speak, but Elrond cut him off by raising his hand. "You both are to be confined within these walls until I deem it safe."

"But-"

"I have spoken!"

Never had Elrond raised his voice like that to them before, even while they were elflings! Elladan looked ready to speak, but Elrohir beat him to it. "Yes, Adar,"he bowed, "Come brother, perhaps we will be able to occupy ourselves in the library." He then dragged his twin out into the hall, and eventually into their rooms.

"He cannot do this!" Exploded Elladan, "We are not children, we know how to defend ourselves! Wait, I thought we were going to the library."

Elrohir, amazingly, did not seem bothered by his father's decision. "Peace, brother. I said that only to make Adar think that we have accepted it"

"How do you expect me to find peace in a situation like this!? And how can you be so calm!?"

Elrohir gained a mischievous look in his eye, and smiled, "Because Adar does not know about the secret passageway we found when we were young. We leave tonight, at the changing of the guard."

"And go where?" Asked Elladan

"To find our dear friend Legolas of course, we will decide from there."

"Do you think it will work?"

"Of course, have my plans ever failed?"

"Yes."

"When?"

"Think COLORS!"

"That was only that one time."

"I was blue for a week!"

"Regrettable, but also amusing."

"There was also the time we ended up mistaking Erestor's clothes for Glorfindel's and put itching powder in them, he put us on laundry duty for a month."

"Well..."

"There was also the time the bucket of water spilled over Adar's head instead of Legolas'. I am scarred for life from that lecture."

"Elladan-"

"And then there was the time-"

"ALL RIGHT! I get the point! We still leave tonight."

"Whatever you say, brother."



"SATURN CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!"

Nothing.

"SATURN CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!"

Still nothing.

"SATURN CRYSTAL POWER, MAK-"

"That will not work here."

Startled, Hotaru spun around

The man that stood in the doorway sent shivers down her spine. He was dressed in all black, even his eyes and hair was black.

"Who are you?" Asked Hotaru in a weak voice.

The man smiled, "I am your fiancé, Dur-Alata."

"WHAT?!" exploded Hotaru. "Oh, no!" She began to back away while waving her hands and shaking her head, "You've got the wrong girl!"

"I'm positive I do."

"Look sir, I don't even belong in the world."

The man began to walk toward her, "But you do. Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Sauron."



'This is taking too long,' thought Rei, 'that's it, I'm teleporting.'

After waking Legolas up, they had begun walking again, silent this time. They been walking for hours, and a dark feeling began to grow within Rei.

'Here we go.'

Rei spoke aloud, "Legolas, what I'm about to do may scare you, but it'll make our trip faster."

"What do you mean?" Asked Legolas.

Rei just smiled, and screamed, "MARS CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!"

After transforming, she grabbed the terrified Legolas' arm, and screamed once more, "SAILOR TELEPORT!"

A flash, then they were gone.

So...short...

But it seemed like a good place to leave off! Got constructive critism? Then what are you waiting for? Let me know!
