PLEASE READ: Here is the edited version of Chapter 2. Again, not much has changed I only fixed the tense and grammar errors.

Number 2: Finding in the Forest
Aragorn was walking in the forests just outside Rivendell. He had just arrived an hour ago with Sam, Merry, and Pippin. He checked on Frodo but Lord Elrond was tending to him. He needed to walk to clear his mind. He failed to stop the wraiths from attacking Frodo and he was glad Arwen was able to get Frodo here in time. Suddenly, he heard a loud thump and snapped his head in the direction. He drew his sword and made his way over to the direction of the sound. He stepped through bushes and came upon a woman laying across the forest floor with a pack attached to her. She appeared to be severely injured. He sheathed his sword and rushed over to her. She was still breathing but in need of a healer immediately. He gently removed her pack and attached it to himself. He took her into his arms and ran back into Rivendell to get a healer for the young woman as fast as his legs would carry him.
"Lord Elrond! Lord Elrond!" Aragorn yelled as he rushed down the open corridor. Lord Elrond looked from the ellon he was speaking to and saw the woman in Aragorn's arms.
"Quick, bring her in here!" Lord Elrond said as he led Aragorn into an empty room. "Gently lay her down." Aragorn did as he was told and stepped back so Lord Elrond could inspect her injuries. "Aragorn, I need assistance. Quickly get another healer. I will begin to work on her." Aragorn nodded as he took her odd pack off of his shoulder. He left the room and moments later returned with two more healers. They quickly went to Lord Elrond and helped him heal the young woman. Aragorn left the room to give them space and stumbled across Merry and Pippin in the corridor.
"Strider, who was that you carried?" asked Merry his eyes big with concern.
"That I do not know myself. I found her in the forest badly injured. I brought her here for healing," Aragorn said softly. He sighed and looked at the now closed door. It would be some time before he would hear from Lord Elrond. "It would be best if you would leave them be for now. Come, let us go and find something to eat." The hobbits eyes lit up and they followed behind Aragorn.
Two days had past and Gandalf arrived looking worse for wear.
"Gandalf!" shouted Pippin when he saw him. The two hobbits ran from where they were sitting with Aragorn over to the tall wizard. Gandalf just smiled and patted their backs as they embraced him. The wizard walked from the hobbits and over to Aragorn.
"I heard you led the hobbits here. For that I thank you," Gandalf said quietly. Aragorn bowed his head to the wizard. "Where is Frodo?"
"He is resting in a room just down that corridor. Lord Elrond is checking him now. I am certain Lord Elrond would be glad to see you," Aragorn said. Gandalf nodded and walked past the ranger and down the corridor to Frodo's room. Aragorn left the hobbits and went into the room of the young woman. Lord Elrond was able to heal her injuries and she was resting peacefully now. He walked in to see Arwen wiping the woman's brow with a damp cloth.
"Arwen, cormamin lindua ele lle," Aragorn said as he walked into the room. She smiled and bowed her head. Arwen, my heart sings to see thee.
"She is fairing well. She should be waking soon. She seems to be dressed rather oddly. In your travels, Aragorn, have you seen clothing such as this?" she asked as she motioned over the unconscious woman.
"Nay. I have never seen clothing like this, nor a pack the size of hers. It is very puzzling to me."
"How did you find her?"
"I was walking in the woods just near the boarders. I heard a noise and went to investigate. When I did I found her lying on the forest floor." Arwen looked back at the woman and gave a small smile when she saw the woman's head stir slightly and her eyes slowly began to open.
"Look, she is waking," Arwen whispered and Aragorn turned his eyes to the woman.
