Olivia returned to her room in shocked silence. Gandalf's horrible words still rang in her ears. Either you or Katie will return to your home. . .not both. Only one. . . Olivia shivered. She just couldn't believe it.

In her room, she climbed into the bed next to Katie's and turned to look at her sister. The five-year-old was sleeping silently, and her face looked calm and peaceful. She had no idea about the horrible decision her older sister was being forced to make.

"I know I can't leave you here alone, Katie…" whispered Olivia into the dark of the night. "But you seem so happy here… not like me. You like it better than I do… but you're only five. Even if you do like Middle Earth better than I do, I still can't leave you alone here. . .but you wouldn't be alone, you'd have Legolas and Aragorn and Gandalf to take care of you… but no, you're too young, you need mom and dad more… but no! I'm a teenager! It's my job to be selfish… wait, not that selfish…" Olivia slowly drifted off to sleep, and the last words to leave her mouth were, "I'm torn…"

The next morning, Olivia was woken by Katie. "Get up, Livie! Wake up! Guess what?"

"Uhhgh." Olivia groaned, and rolled over. "What time is it?"

"Dunno. Can't tell time."

Olivia glanced at the clock, then turned and glared at her sister. "Katie, it's 6 AM! Are you insane? Don't ever wake me up this early again, unless it's a school day!" I hope I'm not mad at her when it's time for me to decide who goes home, because then I might just leave her here! Olivia thought angrily.

Katie laughed. "Sorry, Livie. But I'm going downstairs! This place is HOT!" Olivia decided not to give her a lecture on when and when not to use the word 'hot'.

At 9:00, Olivia awoke and went downstairs to find Katie. She found her, along with Aragorn, Gandalf, and Legolas having breakfast in the dining hall (A/N: um, what do you call the place where they eat? lol. I'll just say dining hall, sorry if I'm wrong)

"Greetings, Olivia." Legolas said. Olivia blushed.

"Hey, Livie!" called Katie. Aragorn and Gandalf just nodded in greeting. Olivia sat down between Legolas and her sister. She avoided Gandalf's gaze. She just didn't feel like talking about what he had told her about last night.

Later that day, Olivia was walking around the city with Katie. Katie was happily pointing out all the things in the city she thought were 'hot', and generally having the time of her life.

"Katie?" Olivia said, breaking the silence. "Do you like Middle Earth?"

"Yeah, it's really cool!" she said enthusiastically. "Especially the horses! Look you can gallop around and everything!" Katie started to gallop around like a horse, neighing and whinnying.

"Yeah, but I mean… would you want to live here?"

"Sure! Yeah! Cool! Could we live here, Livie? We could bring Mommy, and Daddy, and Charlotte, and all my friends! Cool!"

Olivia chewed her lip. "No Katie, I mean… would you want to live here alone? Without me and Mommy and Daddy and everybody?"

Katie stopped looking shocked. "Do I have to? Do I have to stay here forever and ever and never see Mommy or Daddy again?" she looked like she was about to cry.

"No, no, of course not, Katie." Olivia hugged her sister. "Don't worry. You'll defiantly go home. No question."

"Yay! Horray!" cheered Katie, and she started galloping around the courtyard again. Olivia watched her unhappily.

Well, then that settles that. She thought. I just can't leave Katie here. No matter what.

A few hours later, Olivia was walking around the city by herself. A local women had agreed to take care of Katie so that Olivia could have some time to herself. To think and reflect on the place that now was apparently her home.

She hadn't told Gandalf of her final decision yet. In her heart, she was hoping that somehow she wouldn't have to stay. Anyway, she wouldn't really have to make the decision final until it was time to leave. Which didn't look like it would be anytime soon.

"Olivia!" Olivia spun around to see Legolas running toward her, looking panicked. "Olivia, you must hurry! The city is coming under attack! The army from Mordor will be here within three hours!"

Olivia ran after him, too numb to be shocked. She must now prepare to live through the second battle in her young life… at take care of a five-year-old girl at the same time.

A/N: Wow, I'm updating a lot now! lol. I hope everyone likes this chapter: ) Oooh I figured out something last night! Okay, so there's Minas Tirith. And there's Minas Morgul. And they're both city-like places. So does 'minas' mean city? Oh, wow, I'm smart! lol. Or has everyone already figured that out but me? lol. See you all next update! R&R!
