Chapter
7- "Frodo explores some more"
Frodo wakes up a few
hours later fully rested, the pain he was in subsided and the
medicine had kicked in. Frodo yawned and stretched as Elrond entered
the room so slow and so gracefully as that is the way the Elves walk.
"How are you feeling Frodo?" Elrond asked sitting down
beside of Frodo. "I am feeling much better, I had just awaken
when you came in, I took myself a little nap hoping it would at least
keep my mind away from the pain." Frodo said rubbing his eyes.
Elrond noticed Frodo had his red book by his side and smiled. "I
am glad your feeling better Frodo, have you been writing in your
book?" Elrond asked. Frodo looked down at his book and smiled,
"Yes I have, I have written my first entry in it" Frodo
said looking up at Elrond.
"Where's Gandalf, Bilbo, and
Galadrial? The house seems so quiet" Frodo asked looking around.
"They went exploring around in the land, they didnt want to wake
you since you were asleep, they thought maybe you needed your rest
and didnt want to disturb you" Elrond said. "Oh, I would
really like to explore some more, a pity that they went ahead without
me" Frodo said getting up. "Well Frodo, we could go and
explore, that is..if your feeling up to it, maybe we could catch up
with them" Elrond said. "Sure! I'd love to, dont worry I
will be fine" Frodo said. Frodo and Elrond walked out of the
home and Frodo spots Sandy walking around admiring the nature around
her" "Sandy!!!" Frodo yelled. "Frodo!!!"
Sandy yelled running to him giving a big hug. Frodo could not stop
smiling when she hugged him, her blonde hair touched his face sending
his heart racing, he couldn't take it, he wanted to tell her how he
felt so bad, but decides to wait at a perfect moment to do it.
Elrond smiled and spoke "Ah Sandy how are you? we meet
again." "I am terrific and how are you?" Sandy asked.
"Wonderful, thank you for asking!" Elrond said. "Thats
great! How are you feeling Frodo? Hows the wound?" Sandy asked
smiling at him. "Much better Sandy, I took me a good nap to ease
my mind of the pain, and Elrond's medicine is finally doing the
trick, thank you for asking, which by the way, me and Elrond are
going to do some exploring around the land, Gandalf, Bilbo and
Galadrial kinda went off without us, so we are going, would you like
to come?" Frodo asked blushing. "Oh yeah I saw them leaving
earlier, I would love to come, there is some places that I have yet
to see! And I am glad your feeling much better" Sandy said
hugging him again. "Let's go you two, we must explore before the
night hours approach" Elrond said. "Where are we going to
go first?" Sandy asked. "Perhaps to the Lathuor Waterfalls
that I have heard so much about, I hear they are the most beautiful
waterfalls in the entire land" Elrond said walking in front of
Frodo and Sandy. "Wow! Let's go there first, it sounds amazing"
Frodo said grabbing Sandy's hand. "Ive always been fond of the
waterfalls, they are beautiful" Sandy said holding unto Frodo's
hand tightly. Frodo, Sandy and Elrond walked through the amazing
fields of the Undying Lands, butterflys fly overhead and white gulls
call, it was the most beautiful sight they have ever seen, that they
all feel like they are dreaming, Frodo sees a field full of bloomed
roses. "Oh wow, you guys look!" Frodo said pointing to the
field of roses. "Its so..so beautiful" Sandy said running
to the field of roses and looks back at Frodo and smiles. "I
have never seen such beautiful roses in my life, wow!" Elrond
said. Frodo takes off running full speed after Sandy and tackles her.
"Gotcha!" Frodo said laughing. "Ohh, that was mean
Frodo, my dress is now dirty because of you" Sandy giggled.
"Isn't this just lovely? I have never seen such a beautiful land
before" Frodo said pulling a rose out of the ground. "For
you.." Frodo said handing the rose to Sandy. "Awww Frodo,
thank you, that is so sweet" Sandy said kissing Frodo on the
cheek. Frodo's eyes got big again and he finally got the courage up
to kiss her back on the cheek, he was in heaven, he wanted to pour
his heart out to her at that very moment, but still remains to wait
until the perfect moment. "Come you two, the waterfalls are
right over here" Elrond said. Frodo and Sandy got up from the
ground and started to walk behind Elrond hand in hand, Frodo could
hear distant singing, and tried to listen, it seem faded but he could
hear it. "Whats that?" Frodo asked. "Whats what?"
Elrond asked. "I am hearing singing of some kind, it sounds
faded but I can hear it" Frodo said. "I hear it too, what
is it?" Sandy asked. Suddenly Frodo spotted some Elves walking
through the woods singing.
"Look! Elves walking through
the woods, and they are singing, thats where the singing is coming
from" Frodo said. The elves were wearing long white gowns with
blonde hair walking slowly through the woods. "Oh wow, they are
beautiful, who are they Elrond?" Sandy asked. "I know them,
they are of our kind, the rivendell elves, their names are Nienna
Numenesse and Eoweniel, they are elven godesses of Rivendell, they
walk through the woods singing all the time" Elrond said. "Wow!
They are amazing, we should go say hey" Sandy said. "Not at
the moment, lets not bother them at the moment, ah there is the
waterfall!" Elrond said pointing. They walked a bit more and
there it was, the Lathuor Waterfalls, it was huge, the water fell
high from a rock into a crystal clear pool of water, with a rainbow
hovering over the water and butterflies flew around it, it was a
beautiful sight.
