Disclaimer: I do not own anything LOTR related. I only own Rin, Avath, her family and Steph, well actually Steph actually owns herself. But you get the point.

Chapter 20 Rin was of course ecstatic that she was now engaged to Eomer. It was a dream come true, except for that fact Jake was on the loose. That frightened her and she really did not want the others to follow her for fear of them being hurt or worse KILLED!

Rin walked to Stephs chambers then knocked on her door.

"Hey!!" she said as Steph opened the door rubbing the sleep from her eyes.

"What the bloody fuck do you want?" Steph said rather annoyed at her friend for disturbing her wonderful dream of Legolas."

"I'm sorry to wake you but i HAD to tell you! Eomer has proposed to me and i accepted! We are to be married in Rohan during mid winter." Rin gushed excitedly. Steph gawked wide-eyed at her best friend, talk about a wake up call.

"Your what? How i mean...i didn't even know you guys were, i mean...oh my freaking Buddha!!" Rin frowned and anger rose in the pit of her stomach,

" Well perhaps if you got your heads out of the clouds and out of Legolass ass you would notice these things." she responded through clenched teeth.

Stephs eyes narrowed to tiny slits, "What's that supposed to mean??" she said her voice thick.

"It means maybe if you weren't so obsessed with Blondie you would notice things more. But then again guys were always a priority in your life over your friends. So of course your actions do not surprise me." Rin stated her anger clearly laid out.

"You're one to talk miss ' Pity me for i am innocent and weak.' Steph said coldly. Rins face flushed red. "I do not act like that, you think i want to be some stupid princess with all these powers? Do you think i asked Nefaratoiel to make me her partner to fight the darkness of Middle Earth??" Rin said, her voice raising.

Steph clenched her fists, " No but you sure take advantage of it don't you? All you ever do is faint or annoy people with your damn flashbacks!!"

Rins eyes flared open, " DO YOU FUCKING THINK I ENJOY HAVING FLASHBACKS ABOUT THAT?! DO YOU ACTUALLY THINK I WANT THAT KIND OF ATTENTION YOU INCONSIDERATE BITCH!! I WOULD GIVE ALL THIS..." she said gesturing towards her gown, jewelry and head jewel."...TO BE FREE OF THE NIGHTMARES I AM PLAGUED WITH!"

Suddenly as if feeling his masters' discomfort, anger and sadness, Avath rounded the corner. His collar glowing a bright red and himself in his grown form. Avath growled and stood beside Rin.

"You have no idea what i am going through, how hard this is for me to handle." Rin said tears cascading down her face, Steph rolled her eyes,

"You can go on and let Middle Earth pity you about Jake, but we all know you probably deserved everything the guy did to you, your nothing but a stupid bitch whose life is a pointless waste a time." And with that Steph glared at Rin and then slammed the door in Rin and Avaths faces.

Rin could not believe her friends cruel words tears, accompanied by sob racked through the 18 year olds body. Avath nuzzled her in an attempt to comfort his mistress but it did little.

Rin climbed upon Avaths back, ' If that is how she and others truly feel then i will leave, i will dispose of Jake and then find my way back to modern times, where i will be alone but at least in peace.'

Rin gently nudged Avath and the enchanted panther leaped off towards the entrance, oblivious like its owner to the man strolling down the hallway.

"Rin!" Eomer called as she and Avath went through the gates like lightning, leaving a dazed, confused and worried Eomer standing at the large doorway.

"What evil has shown itself this day?" he asked himself as he walked back inside.
