Disclaimer-I own nothing, I swear

Alex felt as thought she had died and came back to life. Her whole body ached, and it was freezing; even thought the day was quite warm. She tried to stand up but a great pain in her leg flew up her whole body and she fell to the hard ground. She looked down and felt nausea sweep over her, she had a large deep bite in her leg; it was bleeding terrible and she was surprise she was even awake.

Her head hurt as she tried to remember what had happened. She couldn't remember anything after her running into the water. She looked around and at herself. Her clothes were missing but that wasn't the biggest problem. Her blood was making a large pile on the ground and she was afraid of losing too much blood. She saw a backpack nearby and using her arms, dragged herself over to it. She opened it. Inside was a pair of jeans, underwear, bra, and a bright red tank.

She looked through it some more and found a washcloth and a bottle of water. Alex pulled on the shirt and the under-stuff. But left her jeans off, as she sprayed water all over the wound; then she press the washcloth as hard as she could to wound. She prayed to God hoping this would help a little. The washcloth soon was stained red, and just to Alex's luck it began to rain. Alex yelled as loud as she could but it didn't help as thunder rolled over head.

She pulled the backpack onto her back and pulled herself up onto her arms. She knew she had to at least try to find help, sitting wasn't helping her. She slowly began, putting one hand in front of the other, letting her legs drag along. Soon, thelower half of her body was covered in mud and she was soaked to the bone. Her lips were soon blue and she fell to the ground, breathing heavily.

She laid there for a minute before pulling herself back up again and began once again. Mud covered her body but it didn't keep the freezing cold rain away. Her face paled even move and her leg was soon numb. But she couldn't stop, she couldn't rest, she couldn't sleep. She had heard of people who died in there sleep when cold.She moved on, her free leg pushing her, keeping her moving. She kept putting one hand in front of the other, 'Right, left, right, left' she told herself.

Alex fell for themillionth time. She didn't know how long it had been but soon she spotted lights ahead. Far and distance but the were lights, all the same. She pushed on, 'Left, right, left, right' she told herself. Finally, she came to a river; she sighed and pulled herself in, rain poured onto her face as she doggie paddled to the other side. The lights becoming clearer, she breathed heavily.

'God, what did I do to deserve this?" she asked in her head, tears fell, mixing with the mud and rain water. Waves beat against her, sending her under numerous times. She finally reached the other side. A gate stood at a distance, she pulled herself along. "A little more" shesaid aloud.

She knocked on the gate softly and croaked, "Open…Please" but her voice didn't even match the wind, and rain, and thunder. Lighting lit up the sky and a watch guard saw her, "Open up!" he shouted seeing the looks of the person.

But Alex didn't move, she fell into the mud, spattering around her. Blood flowed freely and covered the ground in crimson. "Help her up!" one of the elves yelled, fear in his voice. They pulled Alex to her feet and looked over her; she was covering in mud and blood. The parts of her face which were not covered in mud were white and her lips were blue and shivering.

"SOMEONE GET LORD ELROND!" an elf yelled, as the girl fell limp in his arms.

Mystical Full Moon Maiden-That's not fun…oh well, I am waiting a little longer for that, this chapter was all sad and soon the chapters will get happier, hopefully. Thanks for always being there. But I can never baby-sit. May-be it was cause I can't cook with out trying to blow up the house, or maybe yelling at people all the time…eh….odd!
