Chapter 2

When Rin awoke she was groggier than usual, she never had been a morning person. She moved around a bit trying to fall back asleep but when she rolled over on her back something hard and sharp stabbed her in the side and the sun nearly blinded her through closed eyes." Jesus Christ! That hurt." She sat up to check her side hoping she hadn't punctured the skin. She didn't even get to lifting the side of her shirt when she realized she wasn't in her room at all. In fact she wasn't even in her house.

" Oh, this cant be good." She said to herself. She stood up to scan her surroundings. 'Looks like I'm not in Ottawa either' she thought. The lacks of snow and well…buildings seem to back up her theory. Rin looked around remembering her best friend Steph. She wasn't anywhere near her or in sight. Rin began to panic. " Steph!" She called running around frantically. If she was lost then her friend must be as well. They were in the same room. She ran around for about an hour searching for her. Eventually Rin became tired and decided to rest. She found a rock and sat on it and began to cry. " Where am I! Was I kidnapped or something? And where is Steph" she sobbed even more. While doing so her side began to hurt again so she lifted the side of her long sleeve sweater and then her tank top to check the damage. It wasn't bad but it wasn't good either, turns out the rock did puncture through the skin. She was bleeding, but not a whole lot though it was enough that the blood had soaked through her tank top. ' Now what am I going to do?' she though. ' I'm lost, alone and hurt.' Rin was about to get up and start walking again (though she did know where she walking to) when she heard rumbling.

She looked up at the sky checking for rain clouds; it was clear. 'Not thunder so what is it? 'I thought. I looked around and saw…. uh oh. Rin hid behind the rock she had been sitting on.

There were weird and ugly creatures heading toward her. They looked familiar, but she wasn't sure. 'Either way ', Rin thought 'I'm staying where I am'. The rumbling came closer until it stopped. ' Guess they went another way' She thought. Rin stood up dusting herself off and started forward when she nearly went face first into a blade. ' Or not' frightening things surrounded her. She wasn't sure what they were. They made strange noises and eyed her wickedly. She tried to turn and run but one of the creatures grabbed her.

"Let go of me you asshole!" she yelled. She had to get away. But there were so many of them, the instant she tried they would catch her instantly.

The vile and rank smelling things gave her wicked stares, some eyed her up and down. One said something to another in a foreign language, it was one she definitely did not know or recognise. She trembled. Now she definitely knew she wasn't in Ottawa anymore. So then where was she? There were no weird animals like this there. Maybe there were like human- monkey things that don't seem to bathe.

She must be sleeping, having a nightmare.

Before she knew it, she was tied up and pushed to follow.

'Walk and Breathe, don't panic. This isn't really happening, its just a really bad dream that seems really real.' She thought to herself trying not to freak and kept walking.

The sun rose, and they were still walking, though the things seemed to hate it as much as she did. They walked until what seem to Rin, was about noon until they finally took rest. Rin was so exhausted, emotionally and physically; the more they walked to more she felt like she was going to collapse and die.

They took up camp at night and Rin tried to get some sleep so she wouldn't be exhausted the next day. She lay there looking up at the moon when suddenly one of the creepy human- monkey thingies fell to her right. Then all hell broke loose.

She could hear screeches from near by and the one of the watchers came in screeching " The horsemen are coming!" But his warning was much to late.

Men on horse, firing arrows and throwing spears rode into view. The creatures tried to run or fight but they had not the skill to over power them. They were slaughtered, one by one, as Rin flung herself to the ground, quietly sobbing and holding back yells. 'My god! Ive been dragged into a viking war!' She had to get out of here before these men mistook her for one of these creatures.

As Rin was crawling away she noticed silence. "Are they all dead?" Said a man's voice.

"Yes my Lord" replied another.

Rin stopped. Curiosity ate away at her, 'Could these people help me? Could they tell me where I am?' She froze not moving an inch.

"Pile the despicable creatures and burn their carcasses, make sure all are dead, these creatures are not trustworthy." the first voice said.

" Yes my Lord", said a different voice.

Rin continued to crawl away, she was heading for the forest nearby but not to her knowledge, a man had been counting the mangled bodies around her, and she accidentally bumped right into him, the man let out a yell of surprise. Soon she found herself surrounded by swords and drawn arrows.

"Who are you?" She heard the man that had spoken before ask her. He held one of the bows targeted on her. She stood up and put her hands on her hips.

"Don't you point those things at me! Do I look like I can kill you? Bunch of knobs."

She heard a chuckle from the back. They stayed were they where for a few moments. Then silently the man, who had spoken, nodded. She could not see his face but vaguely saw his nod. He lowered his bow, as did the others. They stood there and stared at each other. Rin was cold, sore and trembling. Not to mention kinda pissed from having a spear nearly put up her ass. She didn't know what to do. She was not sure if she could trust these men. Or if she asked for help they would aid her.

She was shaken out of thought when the man asked her again for her identity.

" My- my name is Rin", she answered, unsure of what was to happen to her.

"Rin", he repeated. " Are you friend or enemy?"

" Friend I guess,I was captured, yesterday. Stupid things tied me up and made me walk non stop."

" Why were you outside? And most importantly unprotected?", he asked.

" I...I...I" she stuttered not sure what to tell these men. " Its a long story trust me, I don't even know myself. One minute I was home with my best friend, sleeping and the next I awoke and I was here. Wherever here is…?" She continued.

" Where does your home lie?"

"Canada…Ottawa, Canada"

She couldn't see it but she was sure he had blinked. "I have never heard of this place…Canada?"

"Huh. We are only one of the most loved countries on Earth! Mostly cause we hate war and we are polite and nice...but anyway.." She replied dumfounded. "Well then… where is here?" she asked, afraid to know.

" You are in Rohan"

Rohan…Rohahhan. Wait a second, "OMG!" All the men backed away startled.

" My lady are you alright?" the man asked.

She wasn't paying attention. 'Omg I'm in Middle Earth! This cant be good. This has to be a dream!' she thought.

This was too much. She began to say something but dizziness over came her before she had the chance. She felt two arms wrap around her waist before she hit the ground, that was the last thing she remembered before going into complete darkness.
