Chapter Three

Jen emerged from her room a few hours later wearing a orange dress with a v-neck and flare sleeves with black lining the bottom of the dress and sleeves, complete with a gold lining around her waist and white boots. The dress was really beautiful and Jen loved it. She came out of her room to find the hallway empty. She guessed that Rebal and Shine weren't done and she decided to sit on a bench and wait for them to come out. While she waited she stared out over Rivendell and thought about what they would do now. 'We may have to go to the council.' She thought. Another thought came to her mind, 'What is our purpose here? Surely, when people watch the movie, they don't get sucked into their t.v. Are we supposed to go on the journey with them?' As she was sitting on the bench, thinking about what to do now that they are there, Shine came out into the hallway from her room.

Shine was wearing almost the exact same dress as Jen except Shine's was dark green and it didn't have the black lining on the bottom of the dress and sleeves and Shine was wearing black boots. Shine looked at Jen and walked over to her. With a sigh she said, "So, you're telling me I have to wear the elvish dress, but I don't get the ears! What a rip off!"

Jen laughed and stood up. "Stop complaining, at least the guy you can't wait to meet is taller than you." She said.

Shine started laughing, "So true."

At that moment the door to Rebal's room opened and Rebal emerged wearing a purple dress that went down to her knees with flare sleeves and grey boots. "Do I have to wear this?" Rebal complained.

Jen was grinning. "Well, you don't exactly see us wearing jeans and a Hot Topic shirt, do you?" She said. Rebal gave Jen a don't-talk-to-me-again-or-I-shall-suffocate-you-with-duct-tape look. Jen just looked away and tried not to laugh while grinning.

Shine, who didn't want this to turn into a war, suggested, "Hey, why don't we go and find Arwen? She is probably waiting for us at the council area like she said she would."

Jen and Rebal snapped out of their thoughts and said, "Sure." They walked along the halls and admired the beauty of Rivendell with all of the nature that surrounds it. It took them a few minutes of getting lost and thinking before they reached the council area. When they got there they were surprised to see Elrond there, but Arwen was no where in sight. They walked up to Lord Elrond and asked him where Arwen was, because she was supposed to show them around.

"I am sorry. My daughter had to go somewhere very urgently. The road has become very dangerous and she must go and seek out the ringbearer. She should be back by nightfall, but I wouldn't get my hopes up if I were you. There are many enemies that shall most likely slow her down." Elrond replied.

Before they could say anything he spoke up again, "You three are also invited to the secret council to take place in two days. I advise you to show up here early, it will start during the afternoon sometime." Jen and Shine nodded while Rebal just glared at the ground with a look that said I-wish-I-had-duct-tape.

The day seemed to drag on forever as the girls could find nothing to do since they are from modern times, and in Rivendell there was no modern food (A/N: gasps),t.v. (A/N: gasps again),or modern music (A/N: chokes and dies).They just sat on their balconies most of the day except for meals. Their balconies overlooked most of Rivendell, and they could see the main entrance, so they could see anyone that comes in or goes out. They were waiting for Arwen to return, but that showed no sign of happening that day. Finally, it was the evening and the girls were happy to get to bed so that tomorrow would come, and they would hopefully see Arwen again. They got into sleeping gowns and crawled into their beds ready to have a peaceful sleep. Unfortunately, their sleep was far from peaceful.
