No reviews yet, but if anyone would just press that button down there, I would be glad to give you my happines.
This story is a combo of the books and the movies, so be prepared! Also when I post my stories it messes
up how I wrote it (i/o/w it makes extra spaces and stuff)

Previously on The Two (almost) heros of Middle Earth...
Danielle and Crys are taken back to Middle Earth, Crystal's a hobbit, Danielle's shock an elf, and now
they've been found wandering in the forest by Gandalf. What could happen next??! (I doubt anything very interesting.)
Danielle
My heart was beating about 100 miles an hour, and I'm sure my eyes were wide again, except this time in
fear. "Gandalf?" Crystal asked in amazment. I still couldn't get over her being so short and all, as well as me being
so tall. "Yes, young lady. Tell Me, where are you from?" he said. We looked at eachother slowly. "Um....we came
from a far away land, and somehow we were transported here." I said, taking a chance. "Ah, then I'm glad to have
finally found you two, Danielle, daughter of Susan, and Crystal, daughter of Colleen." Gandalf said wearily. "But..
how did you know that? And where are we?" Crystal asked. "You are near to Isengaard, land of Saruman. As for
how I know you, I do not yet have the time to explain everything, except for that you had been called upon by one
of the five wizards. I belive it was Saruman, trying to get you two girls to join his side. But I am glad to have found
you two first. Now, though, we must leave immeadietly." Huh? What did he mean get us two to join his side? Did
Sauruman need us to give him advice on how to make elctricity or something? Gandalf whistled, and an eagle, which
was flying overhead, swooped down. Me and Crystal watched in amazement as the eagle landed and Gandalf jumped
on it's back. He motioned for us to get on behind him, and Crystal, being the brave hobbit she is jumped right on. Of
course I got on behind her, but I was still scared shitless. The eagle took off, it's wings beating in perfect rythem. "Oh my
God! I just remebered. Danielle, you're afraid of heights, aren't you?" Crystal said. I just nodded thinking..duh! I was
afraid to open my mouth. I closed my eyes and buried my head into the eagles feathers.
What seemed like forever but was actually probably only about 3 hours when we flew over Rivendale, and Gandalf
began to descend. "Gandalf?" Crystal asked. "Yes?" he said as slipped off the eagles back and onto the mossy ground.
"Where are we going?" she asked again. "To the house of Elrond. There is a task that needs to be done, but I cannot
speak of it here." Gandalf said. "Ah-hah" Crys said. YAY! I guess I'm gonna get to meet Leggers anyways, THIS ought to be interesting.I giggled uncontrollably. "You are a queer elf" Gandalf said, trying be polite. "Be more serious!" Crystal said, poking me. "Easy for you, you little hobbiteer (a/n pronounced hobbit-ear) . You can do anything and STILL be acting like a hobbit." I snapped back. "Alright. Let's just be quiet now. We're entering Rivendale." Crystal said. Drat! I was having fun arguing with her. Many elves lined the walkway, singing a song about Gandalf, in honor of his return, and throwing white flowers. I caught one in my hand (with my amazing elvish reflexes smirk lol). It was a white lily with a light blue center. I put it in my hair and then braided two tiny braids streaming from where I had pinned my flower in. Then I realized many elves where looking at me and Crystal oddly. What was up with them? Oh, wait. We were still wearing our jeans and our shirts. Sighing, I just kept on following Gandalf. When we came to Elrond's house, Elrond himself came to greet us. "Gandalf! It is very good to see you again, my old friend." Elrond said. He put his hand on Gandalfs shoulder, and Gandalf did the same, but to Elrond. Elrond then looked over at us. "Who are these madiens? A hobbit and an elf? There clothing is strange to me, are they from a foriegn land?" Elrond said. "Yes, Yes. They are here to represent their lands" Gandalf said quickly. Represent? Now I was an abassador for modren day earth? This is just getting annoying. Elrond didn't look like he did in the movie. He looked extremely beautiful (not hot mind you), not a single wrinkle on his face (and he has been living for how many years??!!), but there was age in his eyes. "Why dont you send the girls to their rooms so they can prepare for the meeting? I do have a few rooms avalible." Elrond said graciously. "I'm gonna share a room with crys!" I said, pumping my hand into the air, and breaking the tranquil silence. Oh, dang. That was a stupid thing to do... "Er... alright. We will make sure that is done" Elrond said. Gandalf was holding back a few laughs, and so was Crys. I gave her a death glare as we were escorted to our rooms by two other elves. Guy elves. Who looked hot by the way. I nudged Crystal and pointed. She nodded and rolled her eyes. "I saw that..." I said. I walked up to one of the male elves who had brown hair and green eyes. "Hi, my names Danielle. May I ask of yours?" I said, trying to look cute. He looked at me funny, and then stated "Yes, My lady. (hee hee, he called me my lady!) My name is Amar. (which by the way, is elvish for home. a/n when I use elvish in this story, my grammer is going to be horrible, but all I can say is...deal with it.)" I sighed and decided to stop, he looked like he was busy. Curses. A group of elves walked the oppisite way, talking in elvish switftly. Hey, wait. I could understand them... woah this was awesome!! They were talking about Gondor and about the heir to the throne (Aragorn..). I smiled as they walked up. I wondered who they were. "Welcome to the house of Elrond." said the blonde one in the front. Legolas? "My name is Haldir." Dang. Nevermind. He looked better then he did in the movie, though. Younger and all. "This is my companion, Legolas, of the Woodland Realm." Oh, there's Leggers. He looked the same. Oh well, I guess Orlando did a pretty good job then, eh? Heh heh heh. Anyways, Haldir then walked up, and kissed both me and Crys's hands. We both blushed furiously, and when Leggy-poo did it, I felt like I was about to scream "Take that all you rabid fan girls! sticks tounge out". Then they departed, allowing us to continue to our rooms. When we walked through the wooden doors, we gasped. Our room was beautiful! There were about three or four windows dipicting Rivendale, light green curtains framing them. Our bedspreads were light green too, and looked soft. I ran out and plopped on one of them, enjoying the feel. "Well, I'm glad to see you are enjoying your rooms. We will be on your way, you are free to do as you wish as long as you stay in town, and as long as you change your clothes as well." Elrond said. He walked out the door, but then Gandalf walked up to use, and pulled someting out of his cloak. Joy! It was my backpack. "I found this before either of you had awakened. I hope it will help you." He said, and then he walked out of our room, closing the door behind himself. "Let's see...Heres a trunk" Crystal said, and she lifted up the top. Inside where beautiful dresses, most of them light colors. Crystal found a green tunic, and found some beige pants to go with it. I searched and found a blue tunic, and some beige pants. "This is perfect. I thought we would have to wear big poofy dresses or something." I said with relief. "Me too. but I think these clothes are a little too big." Crystal said. Correction, the were WAY too big. I laughed, and it was her turn to give a death glare. I found two doors. Through one was a bathroom and changing room, and the second was a walk-in closet. "There are some child-sized clothes in here, Crys" I said, smiling. She walked in, shut the door, and when she came out we were both in our outfits. Crystal looked positivitly adorable. "Don't even" she growled. "I won't" I said. Now lets go find Mr. Magic and see what hes up to. " I grabbed my backpack, and me and Crys, feeling adventours, jumped through the windows, and onto the ground only a few feet below. "I've got it. We'll call Gandalf Mr. White-out, because in TTT (a/n TTT stands for two towers.) he looks like he went swiming in white-out. " Crystal said. I laughed, and again we got those annoying "Who the heck are they?" looks. I tried to control my urge to keep my tounge from sticking out, but I failed. Curses. "There's Mr.W/O" Crystal said, pointing. I saw him through a window. He was talking to a small-brown haired person.."Frodo's in there!" Crystal shouted. She tried to run off at hyperspeed, but I grabbed her collar. "Now Crystal, what were telling me earlier about restraining ourselves around our obssesions?" I said with a smug look on my face."Curses" she muttered. "I can hear you!" I said, enjoying my elvish hearing to it's full extent. We knocked on the door slowley, and we were greeted by Elrond. "Hello, young maidens. I belive Gandalf was about to summon for you" He said. We just nodded, and walked through the door. When we came to the room with Frodo, Crystal went practically insane. I was holding the back of her shirt in reminder not to run up to the poor little thing and start snogging him. "Hello, Frodster. I know we havn't met yet, but I've heard much of you and your uncle." I said. I knew too much, I thought, wincing.
"Hello Frodo!" Crys said. "These are the girls I told you I had found" Gandalf explained to Frodo. Frodster looked at Crys interestingly. Oh For the Love of Valar! (Hey, that's what elves say!) I could smell the mary-sueism from here. After chatting for a few minutes, we were dismissed until tomarrow. I decided to let Crystal go and find the other hobbits to worship them, but I chose to go check out how elves are. I mean, if you're an elf, you can't just be all humany. I'm glad I know the language though. Oh, lookee. It's Leggers and Haldir, as well as Aragorn. (a/n this entire conversation is in elvish, but I'll translate for you all) "Greetings!" I said. They all nodded in reply. I bowed my head and then looked up. Aragorn looke like he hadn't taken a bath in a month. I am from this point on dubbing him Mr. Bubbles. Hee hee. "It is well to see you again" Haldir said. "Ditto" I said. "What?" Legolas said. "er.. nevermind that" This was going to be harder then I thought. "We are to meet tomarrow at the meeting hall for a council." Mr. Bubbles explained. "Um..I don't exactly know where that is." I said slowly. "I'll escort you!" Legolas and Haldir said at the same time. "Nevermind, you take her Haldir." Legolas said reluctantly. Did I hint jealousy? OMG, this was going to be good. "I'll come to get you tomarrow at the gardens near the river at sunrise. We'll be early, but I want to make sure that we arrive on time. Oh, yes you might also want to wear something a little more formal this time." Haldir said. I sighed and nodded. Haldir kissed my hand again, then Legolas. Mr. Bubbles didn't, and thank Valar he didn't. Yuck, all those nasty germies and all. I began to walk away, when Legolas caught up. "Hey Leggers." I said. "What did you call me?" he said. " I called you Leggers. You need a nickname, Legolas is to boring." I said. "Does Haldir have a nickname?" Legolas said. Hm..."No, not yet." I stated. Leggers smiled. I knew it. He is SO jealous. I bet Haldir's the same. Wait until I tell Crystal! heh heh. "Got to go, Lego!" I said, and I ran off, leaving Leggers to stand there, mouth open. I found Crystal with all the hobbits. They were all sharing a drink. "Crys!" I called. "Who's Crys?" Merry said. "One second, guys. I've got to go talk to my friend for a few minutes." Crystal said. She winked, grabbed my arm, and dragged me behind a giant oak. "What?" I muttered. "Danielle, we can't use our real names. It just isn't right, so can you please come up with one?" Crystal said. "My names going to be Elanor Fairbanks." she coninued. "Lorwen" I said. "Lorwen. daughter of Alata. Lorwen means dream maiden in elvish. I like it." Crys, or Elanor (nicknamed Ele) nodded. "Alright Lorwen, Let's get back to the hobbits." she said winking. "Wait, Ele. " I said. "Guess what?" Ele sighed. "What? Lorwen." It was weird to be called that. I'll just have to get used to it. Anyway, Mr. White-out was the only one to have knowen our real names. "Haldir and Legolas are arguing over me, I think. Well, at least as much as elves can argue, anyways." I said happily. "I like Haldir the best" Crystal said off-handedly. "Let's go find those hobbits!" I said.
Many hours later, and obviously many,many pints later for Crystal (I only drank a half-pint, thank you very much!) I took her back to our room and put her in her bed to sleep it all off. I hoped she would'nt be in a hangover during the Council of Elrond tomarrow. Hobbits! rolls eyes I was bored, and now, being an elf, I was not tired at all. I ventured off to go find Arwen, and I hoped she was kind enough to tell me how exactly it is elves sleep and such. Wait, I couldn't do that, I realized in the courtyard. Then it would seem that I was definatly not an elf. Drat. I guess I'd have to figure it out on my own. Later, I thought. "Yo! King Dubble Bubble!" I yelled at Aragorn, who was looking down the river. He looked at me, and I thought I saw a trace of disgust on his face. There I go with my big mouth. "Yes, My lady?" he replied. "Do you even know my name?" I asked. "No." he said. I sighed and then said "Its Lorwen, and your Elessar, righto?" He looked at me in confusion. "What does 'King Dubble Bubble' mean?" He asked. "Oh, sorry Strider-poo. It's just a nickname. Everyone who I see as my friend gets one." I stated proudly. "That's a good thing then, I hope." he said, and smiled. Alright, so far Ele's drunk (as well as every other hobbit in Rivendale), Lego and Haldir (note to self, create nickname for Haldir) are lovestruck fools in my grasp (que evil laughter, again), and Aragorns just dang confused. Oh, yeah, and Gandalf is all knowing. Now, lets see, next on my to do list is... Annoy Elrond. This is going to be hilarious. I strode down the hall towards his study, and I asked one of the elves standing at the door "Hey, do you know where Lord Elrond is?" He said that Lord Elrond was extremely busy with Gandalf. Curses. I'll get him tomarrow, I swear I will. It's not over yet, Elrond.
