It was morning and the Fellowship had already been rowing for the last 4 hours and Tru was getting so tired and soar from sitting. She had to get up and stretch. But jumping in the water was the only way to get out, and she knew Aragorn wouldn't be to pleased if she did. The good things and the bad things ran through her head until she decided that maybe she should jump in. But how? She had to make it look like an accident. But Legolas, who was in the canoe with her and Gimli interrupted her thoughts. "What did you get from Galadriel, Tru?" Legolas asked. He was smiling so cutely. Tru was about to tell him when she decided it was best to lie. "She asked me what an outsider would want and I said a wooden Elven box, and she gave me one." Tru replied. Legolas nodded and went back to focusing on paddling. Tru got back to her plan. Maybe I could shift a little and pretend to fall out! It was a perfect plan to her. Just when to put it in action was the plan. Tru decided that she couldn't wait much longer so she shifted and 'fell' overboard. br

Gimli, who was behind her almost fell to, but quickly, got his balance back. Legolas had heard the splash and snapped his head in the direction. So did the other members. Tru was fighting to stay above the water! She hadn't thought it through to well, and forgot about the under-currents. Frodo screamed for someone to help her. Legolas jumped in. He was a great swimmer and was used to strong currents. He struggled over to Tru and grabbed her around the waist. The only thing was, he wouldn't be able to get her back in the canoe with out flipping it. He decided that the shore wasn't too far and started swimming towards it. br When he reached the shore he threw Tru on the ground. She has breathed in a lot of water and her lungs were almost full. He himself had swallowed a lot too. He quickly started CPR to get her breathing again. After his third attempt Tru coughed out all the water, which unfortunately, went all over Legolas's face. Tru turned bright red. "I'm so sorry Legolas!" Tru said. Legolas just nodded and wiped his face with his sleeve. The rest of the fellowship was fighting back laughter. "Are you okay Tru?" Frodo finally asked. Tru just nodded and stood up. That didn't work so well... Tru thought. Aragorn looked up at the sky. It was noon and he had hoped to be at the Emyn Muil by now. "We should get going now" Aragorn finally declared. The rest of the fellowship agreed and headed back to the boats. br

After awhile Aragorn said, "Behold the Argonath, the Pillars of the Kings!" Tru looked up in awe. It was so big and detailed. "Long have I desired to look upon the kings of old, my kin." Aragorn finished. As they passed threw the Argonath Tru got a weird feeling that something bad was going to happen. br

Aragorn gave the signal and they all went to shore. Tru jumped up and ran out as soon as the canoe had landed. Boromir gave her a weird look. "In a hurry or something?" he asked her. Tru laughed and shook her head. Legolas grabbed her bag and threw it to her. Tru took her bag and threw it on the ground beside a stone figure. This place is so pretty Tru thought. Middle earth is so great I never want to leave! "We cross the lake at nightfall. Hide the boats and continue on foot. We approach Mordor from the north." Aragorn said. Tru sighed, no more boats. Gimli though, didn't look very happy and started to complain "Oh, yes! It's just a simple matter of finding our way through Emyn Muil? An impassable labyrinth of razor sharp rocks! And after that, it gets even better! Festering, stinking marshlands far as the eye can see!" Tru looked over at Pippin. As soon as Gimli had mentioned marshes he had turned pale. "That is our road. I suggest you take some rest and recover your strength master dwarf." Aragorn fought back. "Recover my...?! Grrrrrr." Gimli replied angrily. Then Legolas ran up to Aragorn, looking worried. Tru noted that this probably /b a good sign at all. He started whispering to Aragorn about something. It seemed important. br

After a while Pippin started looking around alarmed. "Where's Frodo" he asked. Tru looked around and gasped. He wasn't there. "I'll go look for him!" Tru declared. "WAIT! We should team up." Aragorn pointed out. Tru stopped and turned back. "Who wants to go with me then?" Tru asked. Merry and Pippin put up their hands before any one else. Tru smiled and motioned for them to follow. br

Soon everyone was in the forest searching for Frodo. It had been an hour when Tru heard a horn Blowing. Her mind jumped to Boromir. Tru raced threw the bushes with Merry and Pippin following her. She turned her head to tell Merry and Pippin to stick close when she ran right into Legolas. "Legolas! I'm so sorry!" Tru said. Legolas nodded his head and got up. "Did you hear the horn?" Tru asked. Legolas replied that he did and that was were he was going till he saw them running and thought that they were in trouble. Tru laughed and went red. Legolas was worried about me! Tru thought. She looked back and saw the hobbits were almost there. Then she turned back to Legolas "Has anyone found Frodo yet?" she asked. "Aragorn said something about finding him then sending him threw the forest." Legolas replied. Tru was about to say that they had better start going again when Legolas yelled "MOVE" and pushed her out of the way. In that few short seconds Legolas had an arrow in him and he was on the ground bleeding. "LEGOLAS" Tru and the hobbits screamed. Tru couldn't believe it. Legolas risked his life for her. "Legolas! Are you okay? What should I do?" Tru asked worriedly. Legolas looked up at her. Tru could see the life fading from his eyes. "I love you Tru. Don't forget that. I love..." Legolas stopped. Tru looked around panicked. "Legolas, NO!" Tru screamed but it was no use. He was dead. Merry put a hand on Tru's shoulder. Pippin stared blankly at the scene. He couldn't believe Legolas was gone. Just then he saw something moving. It was a pack of uraks "RUN!" Pippin screamed. Tru looked up and saw it too. She suddenly had an urge to go kill every least one of them for what they did to Legolas. But Merry and Pippin had started to run and she needed to stay with them, so she followed. Br

Soon they reached Boromir. He was fighting a whole pack of uraks. Tru looked up the hill and saw what looked like the boss fixing an arrow. "BOROMIR! MOVE!" Tru screamed. She didn't want another death to happen. Boromir looked up to where she was looking and saw the leader. He quickly dodged the arrow he had let loose and ran over to Tru. He grabbed her by the arm and told the hobbits to follow. They had to find Aragorn. Br

They only had to run a while to find Aragorn and Gimli running threw the tracks towards them. Aragorn stopped and looked at them. "Where's Sam and Frodo? Where's Legolas?" Aragorn asked. When he said Legolas's name grief struck Tru's heart. "He died... protecting me..." Tru managed to spit out before breaking down into a fit of tears. Aragorn looked shocked. "Who?" he asked, knowing the answer, but needing to hear it. "Legolas" Pippin said. Aragorn looked around shocked. His best friend... dead... Tru couldn't take it anymore. She said she was very sorry and ran off crying. Br Tru ran threw the trees. She was close to the shore with the canoes. She started running faster, but tripped over a log. She winced and kept crying. Then she heard it. A faint whisper, like a child. "Tru" it said. Tru looked around her but couldn't see anyone. Then she heard it again. "Tru. I need you." It said. It sounded like it was coming from behind her. She looked behind and at the ground and she saw Frodo. His head shot towards her then he said, "Help Me". br IW.N-ducks from flying objects OKAY!
