Please review, any reviews are welcome…

MLB: Well I can't tell you if it will be a romance or not, I guess you will just have to keep on reading. I haven't decided yet what it will become.

IwishSan: Thank you again for your review

-------------------------

The morning finally came when I would be departing with the rest of the fellowship. I slipped into brown trousers and a white shirt. I hooked my belt along with the two daggers hanging on the side. Aragorn had given up on my archery skills and decided to leave that to Legolas and himself. Then Pippin came in, holding a green cloak. He handed it to me and I clipped it on.

"Morning," he greeted.

"Same to you," I said as I pulled my hair back into a pony tail using string I had found.

"Just the right size," he said, looking at it.

"Yes, indeed," I said, then suddenly Elrond entered the room and Pippin quickly left afraid of him still ever since the counsil meeting.

"Alisa, it is either this or Pippin's idea in sending you to The Shire," Elrond said as he put a hand on my shoulder, as I looked at the mirror.

"I just hope I survive," I whispered.

"Listen to me Alisa, stay near Aragorn, Boromir or Legolas." He said. "Do not leave their side; there are far worse things out there. Do you understand what I am telling Alisa?"

"Yes," I said.

"Good, everyone is out in the court yard. They are all most ready to leave," and with that he was gone. I looked at my reflection one last time, and then made my way out to the court yards. Everyone stared at me as I made my way down the long steps.

"Now everyone is here. We may begin our journey now," Gandalf said.

-----------------

I trailed behind Merry and Pippin, Frodo walked in the front of the group with Gandalf, Aragorn was behind me, but we didn't speak to each other. He knew I was mad about being in the fellowship, I had no purpose, and I was nothing special to the group, I would only cause more problems.

"We must hold this course west of the Misty Mountains for forty days. If our luck holds, the Gap of Rohan will still be open to us, and from there our road turns east to Mordor" I heard Gandalf say.

"Rohan might be your home for a while Alisa," Aragorn said, he walked into pace with me but I still didn't look at him. "You will stay there until the war is over. I know you're mad, but you must understand this is for your own safety." Safety? Traveling in the wild was considered saver to him?

"It is ok Aragorn," I said. "I am not mad."

-------------------------

I found myself sitting on a large rock. I watched as Merry and Pippin began sparring and soon Boromir joined in. Frodo and Sam sat next to me, not speaking to anyone. I watched Frodo carefully; he seemed he longed to be back at the Shire.

"Did you leave someone deer to you back home," I asked him. Frodo turned to look at me and gave me a little smile. "Sort of."

"Did you leave someone special back at your home Lady Alisa," Sam asked who sat next to Frodo.

"Well he was my best friend, his name was Jonea," I said. "I sent him a letter telling him I am ok."

"How did you send him a letter," Aragorn asked, he sat a few rocks away, but was still listening to my conversation, so was Legolas.

"Well I was in the stables after you told me I would be going with you and I saw riders from Gondor, I guess came with Boromir," I explained. "I gave them a letter and asked them to deliver it to Jonea."

"Were you courting him Lady Alisa?" Sam asked. I heard Aragorn next to me laugh.

"No I was not, he was and will always be just a friend," I explained. "What is so funny?"

"You have never courted anyone," he said.

"Well maybe it is because I never stay in the same place for very long. You're always moving me," I explained. "But not anymore, I am staying in Gondor once I get there."

"If anyone were to ask my opinion, which I note they're not, I would say we're taking the long way round! Gandalf, we could pass through the Mines of Moria. My cousin Balin would give us a royal welcome!" I heard Gimli say. Then all of a sudden Pippin let out a cry and before I knew it the two small hobbits where attacking Boromir. Quickly Legolas jumped up and ran to a rock, looking out to what seemed to be clouds.

" It's moving fast, against the wind." Boromir yelled.

"Crebain from Dunland" Legolas said.

"Hide," I heard my brother say. Everyone started gathering their things and hiding. Legolas grabbed my hand and pulled me under a tree as the Crebain appeared. They were loud and noisy and stayed for a while, circling the large rocks a few times.

"Spies of Saruman. The passage south is being watched. We must take the pass of Caradhras." Gandalf informed everyone. I looked up at the snowy mountain; I did not do well in the cold, in fact I hated the cold.

-----------------------

The walk on the mountain was the hardest thing I ever had to do. Legolas seemed to differ; he walked on the snow, as graceful as can be. I shot him glares, to me he was a show off. Days like these I would love to be an elf.

"There is a fell voice on the air," Legolas yelled.

"Its Saruman!"

"He's trying to bring down the mountain! Gandalf, we must turn back!" Aragorn yelled. The cold was unbearable. My hair was solid as ice and frozen to my face.

"No!" Gandalf yelled and then started to chant out spells, but that sadly did not work. Then the lightning struck the mountain and I looked up seeing white snow about to fall on me.

-----------------------------

I gasped for air but snow went into my mouth instead. I couldn't breathe, the cold was taking over me, and I soon felt like I was leaving this world. Everything began to fade, and I could do nothing to stop it. Suddenly a pair of strong hands pulled me out of the snow, and the last thing I saw was Legolas and my brothers' face before everything went white.

My eyes flashed open and I tried to figure out where I was. It was not cold out, but very warm. Someone was holding me and I began to move out of their grasp. Where was it? What was I doing on the side of a mountain? I looked around seeing not snow but the side of a mountain.

"Alisa," I heard a very familiar voice say. I looked at the person holding me. Aragorn set me down by a fire.

"I thought I lost you, Legolas found your hand sticking out and pulled you out. But a boulder hit your head, we found you, I thought it was too late." Aragorn explained.

"I guess that explains the headache I have," I said bring my hand to me head. I tired to get up. But was stopped my Aragorn.

"Alisa do not get up," my brother said but I did any. I staggered as I got up almost falling but Aragorn caught me. "Relax."

"Where are we?' I asked.

"The Mines of Moria," he explained to me.

"I thought Gandalf said he didn't want to come this way," I asked.

"He didn't, but it was Frodo's choice and he decided to get off the mountain."

"I hope not because of me," I said.

"No, for everyone's sake…"

--------------------

Aragorn left me alone sitting by the fire. Legolas knelled down next to me.

"Let me check your head again," He said gently pushing hair away from the wound.

"That was you who sewed it up," I asked, he glanced at me and nodded. "Thank you."

"It was not problem Lady Alisa,"

"Alisa please, just Alisa, since I am just calling you Legolas," I smiled. He smiled back at me and then drew his attention back to my head. Him touching the wound brought pain back into head. I winced a little and he noticed.

"I am sorry," he said pulling back.

"O it is ok,"

"You should get some rest, it will be awhile until we go into the mines," Legolas said as he began to walk away.

"Legolas," I called to him, he turned around to look at me. "Thank you."

"Anytime Alisa…"
