Chapter 3

flashback

Arwen struggled to find a boat, since there were none but the mail ships that voyaged from valinor to the grey havens she had to take one of those. The ropes were all tangled to each other and she had no blades to cut them. There was no way that she could get back without one.

"I will come back my love, I will" she said pulling effortlessly at the ropes, Her hands were beginning to bleed from the harsh rubbing.

She couldn't turn back now, her father would stop her from trying again if she did. She struggled for hours and hours before she just collapsed into the boats, A tumble of papers and ropes fell onto of her body and she lay there in deep slumber. Her hair was littered all over and her clothes were tattered.

When the sun arose in the morning Arwen still had not awoken.

"wait" came a voice to the elf who was boarding one of the boats. He turned around to see the lord elrond running towards him in tears. he was carrying a letter. He placed it into the elf's hand and looked him in the eye

"This is of highest importance, this must be delivered to the king of Gondor"

as soon as he said that he walked off and it awoke Arwen. she had heard subconsciously the word gondor. she looked around and saw the sea all around her the sparkling waves of water, she could see the fishes swimming and nothing but the docks of valinor.

She stood up and looked around.
"Excuse me, are you going to deliver these messages" she said in the sweetest tone of voice she could manage without sounding suspicious.

The elf looked at her like he saw a ghost.

"My lady Arwen, what are you doing here, you need to go back to valinor" he said trying to turn the boat around.

"I am not going back" she said firmly" I will stay on this boat until we get to the shores of middle earth, you will not stop me"

Arwen tidied up all of the mess she caused and stayed in the boat for the long journey of seeing nothing but water.
end flashback

Far across the seas and lands in the palace of Minas Tirith Aragorn king of Gondor had just received the letter.

My Dearest Estel
I apologise for this but I feel as if you should know. My dearest Arwen was found laying by the riverbank out cold and breathless yesterday. I am sorry but she has died. It has borne me much sorrow writing this as I think about her last moments alone and cold.
I know you might feel pains of anger or sorrow but I think she would wish for you to carry on with your life, become the king you were born to be, have many heirs. I think it would not be her wish for you to turn away from your destiny

Ada

Aragorn looked at the letter as if it was his beloved arwen in his arms. He felt part of himself disappear with these words. How?

"Its all your fault, It was you" He shouted looking at the letter and wripping it to shreds as if taking it apart would destroy the truth" Why diddnt you let her be with me, Why ada, why"

he had turned to tears once more and looked around him expecting arwen to walk up behind him and kiss all the troubles away. His eyes were closed and for moments he thought it was her but when he opened them all that he saw was his maid kissing him on the neck.

"WHAT do you think you are doing." she shouted grabbing her by the neck and throwing her to the bed" To kiss me when I receive that news, that was a foolish decision"

She looked around anxiously waiting for him to apologise but he never did, She saw him come towards her and when they were eyesight he ripped off her clothes, hurting her arms and legs.

"So you want to be Arwen, be my Arwen, be her, take the good with the bad" he said before pushing her back until all she saw was darkness.

A/N I know that might not be how all of you think Aragorn would act but he was probably so angry with elrond that nothing else mattered.
