Author's Note:
Hey guys! You're about to hate me. For the last few chapters, I've only gotten one or two reviews from friends, and the even rarer review from readers I don't know. This, to me, means there are very few of you interested in the story right now. (authors THRIVE on reviews, praise and constructive criticism)
The story is, right now, reaching the climax. I have decided that this is the perfect time to start over with it. I will not be unfair by pulling it off, but it HAS been put on hold for now, while I revise it.
I am not starting over, and there should be no big changes like new characters or a new plot. I am merely trying to make more sense of background stories, add more scenes, make it more readable on ff.net, fix bloopers, add stuff.ect. So far, CH 1: The Beginning (I decided it was confusing with a prologue), has been lengthened by 2.5 pages and I'm still working on it.
If there are scenes you DO NOT WANT DELETED or fixed, leave in a review which part of which chapter it is. I'll take it into consideration.
And another announcement to frustrate you.there is a NEW updates list. Purely to inform you of updates surrounding Moon Rune. NO OTHER STUFF LIKE CHATS OR OTHER FICS WILL BE THERE. You can thank Celtic Dreamer for that. Only updates surrounding MOON RUNE will be sent through. There will be drawings from Moon Rune there, as well as wallpapers by CD.and of course, the fic itself. Both versions. When we get to it.
The address is:
Or should do it.
If you WANT to chat or discuss other things (or find updates for other fics), you can join GNsCafe. There you can find my character kitties and what not.
The address is: but should do it
Another thing.I am helping Crawler with a fic of hers, that stems off of Implacida's Heart and Body fic and the series it belongs to. It is a good story (I had to read it to help), but I warn you. It's Nc-17 and slash. And READ THE WARNING. As you all know, I don't write slash. But Crawler's a good friend, and I owe her a favor.not to mention the story is good so far. ^_^ This means, as you're probably wondering, that her/our fic will be put before Moon Rune. I WILL work on Moon Rune, but it won't be fast coming.
PS Warning! AOL has been a pain in the arse lately. I may have problems getting on soon.
Now! For the cookie! It SHOULD be in the new version as well. I don't see why not. It is a sample of what's to come in the next chapter. *evil grin* Hee, hee.
Bonnie and the others were just reaching the top of the stair, when a blinding flash erupted from down the corridor. As soon as it faded, she could see Legolas rushing forward. The elf may have been seriously ill and mute at the moment, but he sure could run. It was then, as she saw Damon and Boromir reach the same room, that she understood.
"Ellen?! ELLEN!"
Everything seemed to be moving thickly and slowly, but she finally reached the room. The room was simple, but elegant with it's furnishings and open walls. The room itself, looked like it was the touch down for a tornado. Torn books, wood, feathers and sheets littered the area and floated in the air.
"Where's Ellen?!"
Sure enough, there was no sign of the sick brunette. Boromir looked up to the rest as they filed in. "Impossible! She was on her death bed! How could she be moved with no trace and in such a short amount of time?!"
Bonnie frowned, and as one, everyone turned to Legolas. The elf was leaning heavily against a post near the window. He panted, clammy and pale. He looked, to put it mildly, like he was about to keel over. But misty blue eyes met there's, and he shook his head.
He didn't know where she was.
"Legolas.is she???"
The elf frowned, but shook his head again.
"She's not dead, not here.where the HELL is she?!"
"I'm right here, Bon Bon."
All turned to see Ellen standing on the edge of the balcony. In the blast it had lost it's railing, and the tall girl stood on it's very edge looking at them with a cool eyebrow raised. Her hair was pulled tightly back by a strip of bedding, and her body was clothed in only underwear. For some odd reason, she wasn't embarrassed.
"What's the matter?"
Bonnie and Devon ran over, as Celia hobbled over, and they all embraced her.
"Are you okay?!" "What's going on?" "What happened?!"
Suddenly a powerful force hit them all in the gut, and the three Slayers went flying back. Damon caught Celia, as Bonnie flew through the door taking a hobbit with her, and Devon crashed into a drawer. Legolas stared at Ellen in something a kin to fear. At the amazed and confused expression on their faces, Ellen smiled.
"I've never felt better. But do me a favor? Don't go all mushy on me. It's pathetic. You're Slayers! Act it!"
Frodo leaned toward the elven healer. "What's going on?"
Ellen fixed a cold glare on them, and they both froze.
Boromir turned to Legolas. "Did Sauron succeed? Has his poison turned her?!"
Legolas ignored the looks the Fellowship sent them, and shook his head.
"What is going on then?!"
Ellen strolled up to them, giving them a sly smile. "I'm not too sure myself, Boromir. But I've never felt so.free!"
Then she turned to Legolas, and gave him a heated kiss. She pulled back, blowing lightly on his lips. ~Hi, Lover.~
All took a step back as the dark words left her lips. Darkness clouded LothLorien, and there was suddenly very little light to see by. Gandalf stepped forward, his white staff glowing. He sent her a dark, searching look.
"Where, child, did you learn the Black Tongue?!"
Ellen gave him a passing glance, but grinned. "You know the cool thing about these powers? I just have to concentrate really hard, and I can learn whole languages. It give's me such a buzz, though."
"But why speak such words?!" Aragorn wondered aloud, dread eating at him.
Ellen's smile widened. "Because it's FUN!" And then said. ~You should lighten up, King Man.~
For some reason, they were all able to understand her. Legolas continued to shy away from her. She turned to him, keeping him in place with a cold glare. ~What's the matter, Princeling? Do I scare you?~
Hard blue eyes met her nearly black ones, and he shook his head. His eyes turned green as he concentrated.
"No." His voice could be heard, but his lips didn't move. "But every time you speak those foul words, it pains my heart."
"Hmm. That's right." She cupped his chin. "You're still weak, aren't you? Poor thing. I can make you all better."
"How?"
Ellen turned to glare at the elf entering the room next to Lord Celeborn. "What?" She hissed.
Indigo eyes glared back at her, as Haldir spoke. "He is an elf. I don't know what happened to you, but you are filled with darkness. Legolas, though strong, is a creature of the light. You would kill him.or worse.corrupt him."
Ellen's grip on Legolas tightened, and all were alarmed to see blood drip from his face. Legolas managed not to utter a sound. "'Corrupt' him? So what? I will not return to as I was.WEAK! We were meant to be together, right Legolas?" Legolas was alarmed to see that no light reflected in her eyes, as she looked at him. They were so dark, they appeared to be black as onyx.
"Release him! See what you do to him?!" Gimli snarled.
She pouted to see that she had hurt him, and then leaned forward and licked him clean. The sight made the hobbits squeamish, and they had to turn away. Bonnie, Celia and Devon looked mildly grossed out. This could NOT be their Ellen!
"Then I will fix it so that he won't be hurt so easily. We were meant for each other, Legolas." She rested her free hand on his shoulder and played with his hair. "And if I must 'corrupt' you as they say, then so be it." She smiled, ignoring the horror in those eyes.
"I would die, before I see you perform such an act!"
Gandalf and the men could not prevent the dwarf from lunging forward. Ellen spared him hardly a glance as she stopped him. She pulled the ax from his hands, and swung it to connect with his helmet. Gimli went flying through a wall. Gandalf stood before the hole, guarding it from Ellen as Boromir and Aragorn went to check on the dwarf.
"Gimli!" Legolas shook in fear that his brave friend might have been killed.
"Don't worry! He's alive, Legolas!"
The elf wilted in relief at Boromir's words, and his eyes became blue again.
The girls stayed near the hobbits, not knowing what to do. Celeborn was farspeaking to Galadriel, calling for her to come, while he helped keep Gimli alive. Herdare and Haldir stood side to side, weapons drawn.
"Ellen, I do not know what evil has befallen you, but release my prince. I beg you."
Ellen released Legolas's chin, showing deep bloody nail marks, and caught Legolas as he swooned. Her eyes were hard.
"'what evil that has befallen me'?! What ARE you talking about, elf boy?! I am FINE. And so is Legolas. I will NOT release him. He is my soulmate! What are you? Jealous?!"
Haldir wasted no time in rushing her. He ignored the girls cries for him not to hurt Ellen, and attacked her arm.or he tried to. In a blur of movement that not even Herdare could see, Ellen had caught the long blade, and thrust it into Haldir's gut. The elf stood in shock a moment, before trying to swing his other blade. This time, the blow was to his shoulder. He staggered to his knees, and would have been beheaded, had Herdare not interfered and pulled him away.
Everyone stared at Ellen in horror, as she held the blood soaked blade. She twirled it around, hefting it in her palm. She let Legolas sink to the floor as she tried it out with both hands.
"Hmm. Not bad. Good balance. Strong." She sent a glance to the dying elf. "Not bad, elf. But, a word of warning to you all? Don't test me. Or annoy me. Come on, Legolas. Let's go."
She started to reach for the rousing elf, when a voice topped her.
"What did you do?!"
She turned to see a mirror like image standing before her. The look a like was standing on a bridge just out side the open wall. The girl was staring with horror at the blood that painted everyone and the floor. Her face was pale, and her wide eyes were a greenish color.
"ELLEN?!"
The girl turned to look at Celia with tears in her eyes. "How.why? Ce??? Legolas!?"
Legolas looked at this new Ellen, eyes wide. His lips moved: Ellen. He then looked up to see the girl holding him sneering at the new arrival.
"You have GOT to be kidding me!"
*Evil grin* You like it? You hate me now?
