A/N- Once again thanks to my reviewers. I said that I was going to concentrate more on Move Over Dolly but now I've got a different plot bunny chewing up my brain.

Back to the Beginning

In Rivendale, on December 23, a long time before the ring of power was ever found a young elf couple gave birth to their first child. The girl, with dark hair and blue eyes, wailed loud enough to make every elf in a five mile radius deaf. The newborn didn't like the fact that she was out of the warm place but knew she had to be born in order to do some things that may be important. Her mother looked down at her wrinkled face and smiled ",I guess it is true what they say. Paybacks are a bitch."

"What did you say, melamin," Finarfin asked his wife.

"It is not important. I have thought of a name for her. We will name her Valentina."

"'Tis not an elvish name, my love."

"I think we can break tradition this once."

In Lothlorien, on the same day, a elfling was born to very proud parents. He was named Haldir and his father was a march-warden of the realm while his mother was a seamstress for the Lady herself. Haldir grew up in the daily presence of the Lord and Lady. When he was old enough, five to be exact, he began to train to become a warden like his father.

In Rivendale, Valentina was raised within the court of Elrond. Within the protective walls of the elvish city she was friends with Arwen and her brothers, Estel, and when he visited Rivendale Legolas. She was a little too curious for her own good. A trait that showed more when Gandalf came to visit Lord Elrond.

One day, Valentina's father received a summons from Lothlorien from the Lady Galadriel. She requested his council on several important matters regarding her realm and Lord Elrond, holding Finarfin in the highest regards, had suggested him. The family packed their belongings and set out for Lothlorien.

The Lady Galadriel watched from her sitting room as two young children were running toward one another but didn't realize it. They were too busy looking over their shoulders at some unseen evil to run from. They collided with a great crash.

Umph !

Umph !

"Ouch ! My head !"

"Owie ! My leg !"

Two sets of blue eyes met one another. The boy smiled at the girl. He helped her up and they both went about dusting themselves off. Then they looked back at one another.

"'Quel amrun. I am Haldir."

"Saesa omentien lle. I am Valentina."

"You have a funny name. I like it. My dad's a warden you want to go see him work ?"

"Yes. That sounds like fun."

And so the soul-mates found one another again. Galadriel smiled to herself and spoke over her shoulder to Celeborn ",The world is right again."

A/N- This chapter deals with being reincarnated in a past life. Valentina's mom is actually Jordan. I hope I didn't confuse anyone. Well, this is the end of the tale of Tina and her friends. I hoped you enjoyed it. Reviews are much appreciated. Now for the translations:

'Quel amrun- good morning

Saesa omentien lle.- Pleasure meeting you.
