Chapter 18
--Normal POV, Council room—
Magdalena stopped screaming as she bumped into a chair. She opened her eyes, looking around to see many chairs in a circle, a pedestal in the middle. Magdalena was about to get up but froze as she heard heavy footsteps that didn't belong to those of the Elves. Magdalena brought her sword closer to her face, the footsteps coming louder, the girl's breath coming in short in fear.
But the enemy passed by without even noticing or glancing towards Magdalena. She sighed in relief, the fear somewhat leaving her. Once she knew it was safe, the pregnant woman stood up and walked down a secret staircase hidden by the bushes. She took her time, as the steps were slightly steep. Once on even ground, Magdalena quickly, and tiredly, walked to the left, something telling her to go in that direction.
But as soon as she realized where she was, Magdalena stopped before walking on to the narrow bridge that was built over a pool of water that came from the waterfall on the left side. Magdalena looked around the area, the wooded area, the height of the waterfall, the structure of the bridge, the feeling that the she was getting was all too familiar to Magdalena.
"No," She shook her head, taking a small step back. "Not here." She whispered fearfully.
She turned and screamed as Vinia stood before her, coming out of nowhere. Magdalena was about to back away but the Elf grabbed her left upper arm, his blood sword pressing against her neck.
"(Drop your sword.)" He hissed at her hatefully.
Magdalena did what she was told and tossed the sword to the side, the metal clinking to the ground. Vinia smiled evilly, the evil radiating off of him making Magdalena sick to her stomach.
"(Where do you think you are going, mortal?)"
Smirking, Vinia quickly moved his sword away from her neck, took a fist full of Magdalena's hair and brought her face up to his, kissing her fiercely. Magdalena pushed against him, crying as her muffled screams could not be heard. Vinia than forced his tongue into her mouth, giving Magdalena the opportunity to bite down on it before he can even explore her mouth.
Vinia screamed in pain as he withdrew from Magdalena, who quickly (thanks to the Elvish blood in her) brought out her dagger and stabbed Vinia in his left shoulder. Vinia cried out before he backhanded Magdalena into the small lake on the left. But thankfully, the water wasn't too deep that she was able to swim, but not too low that she could've gotten hurt or her children.
Magdalena emerged from the water, pushing back her hair from her face to see Vinia kneeling on the bridge before her, his sword between them. He had taken out the dagger and discarded it to the side, his blood upon the beautiful blade and the ground.
"(I liked you, you know. But you were just too innocent for my taste.)" He sighed and tilted his sword from side to side, the late afternoon sun reflecting it's rays off of it to Magdalena. "(If I had it my way I would let you live and have you as my slave.)"
Vinia flickered his dark eyes to Magdalena. The look he gave scared the poor woman to death, her breath coming in gasps, her eyes widening. She thought up only one name, hoping, wishing he would get there in time.
"Elrohir."
"(But I have my orders from my mistress and I must complete them. Goodbye, half-maiden!)"
Vinia was about to thrust his sword into her heart when an arrow pierced his hand holding the sword. Vinia screamed in pain, dropping his sword to the floor. He and Magdalena turned to see a couple of pissed off Elves.

--Elrohir's POV—
My brother, Glorfindel, Hnluin, Haldir, Legolas, and I were all in three feet of each other, fighting off these foul creatures that seemed to continue to appear out of nowhere. But this was not was bothering me. Something within my heart, my soul was telling me that something else was amiss, but I could not figure out what it was. I couldn't figure it out as I was too busy fighting of these creatures.
I than felt a pull coming from behind me towards the bridge which my sister and Aragorn have declared their love to one another. It seemed to get stronger, but I couldn't leave my brother and friends to fight these creatures off alone. This was my home as will, and I had to defend it. But something happened I did not suspect but immediately knew that I had to leave.
"Elrohir."
I quickly slain the creature before me and looked behind me. I heard my wife's voice so close and near but she was nowhere in sight. I turned just in time to block an attack before killed the Uruk-hai. That pull coming from the bridge was so strong that I couldn't no longer ignorant and I had to go and find out what was happening.
My brother and friends seemed to understand me and quickly killed any enemy they were fighting and we all ran as quickly towards the bridge. But something kept the Uruk-hai's at bay. As though some kind of power was making them stay back. We rounded the corner just to make all of us stop in our tracks and stare in hatred and anger at what we were seeing about now.
My wife was in the water, blood trickling from her neck and chin, looking scared and hopeful at the same time. My blazing eyes turned from my wife to the Elf that has done this to her. Glorfindel quickly took out his bow and notched an arrow, hitting it's target, Vinia's hand that held the sword.
The sword dropped, as the traitorous Elf cried out, a cue for all of us to go into a defense. Both he and my wife turned to look at us and my wife immediately beamed with relief and joyous at the sight of us as Vinia looked on at us in fear. I narrowed my eyes in hatred as I saw my wife's busted lip and the red mark on her lower cheek. Glorfindel notched another arrow, ready to let go if need to.
"(Don't you dare touch my wife again!)" I told him in a low, icy cold voice.

--Normal POV—
Magdalena moved towards her husband and friends, wanting to get warm and out of danger. But Magdalena was far from being safe. The water near the waterfall begun to swirl upwards, a dark figure appearing within it. Elrohir ran over to Vinia and both Elves begun to fight, Vinia only using his left hand as best as he could. Haldir and Glorfindel ran half-way on the bridge and went on their knees while Elrohir, Hinluin, and Legolas had their bows notched with arrows incase any enemy decided to come out and surprise them.
Both Haldir and Glorfindel reached down to Magdalena, who took hold of their hands. The Balrog slayer and the warden of Lothlorien hauled the half-mortal up on to the bridge and stood, helping the pregnant woman up. The trio turned to the rising water that was spinning faster before snapping to nothingness. Water sprayed everywhere, soaking all that was in a mile radius. The body of a dragon swirled above the water as Dinenwin's body at the waist and up was attached to it.
"My god, it was Hitrother all along! Not Deachir!" Magdalena said more to herself.
Legolas, Elladan, and Hinluin all ran over to Magdalena, Glorfindel, and Haldir, their swords out, staring up at the creature.
"Dinenwin?" Legolas asked in disbelief.
"(No, it's Hitrother! He over took Dinenwen's body back at Deachir's castle!)" Magdalena told the, figuring everything out. "(He was the one who sent me back to my father!)"
"Yes." Hitrother said slowly. "T'was I who sent you back to your father. But that half-elf Lord, the Lady of Light, and that damn White wizard had to ruin it all! But it did not matter for I just needed a bit of time to regain my energy to destroy all you perfect immortals." Dinenwin smiled evilly, although it really was Hitrother's doing. "And now the time to die will come for you all. The day of the immortals shall be gone forever!"
Hitrother cackled as a purple fog started to form from the lake and made it's way bigger all around him, going over all that it can to cover all that was Rivendell.
"Say goodbye to your precious home!"

A/N: Almost done, I promise (for those of you who are bored with this story all ready), so just be patient. I thought that I should make these chapters short to keep the suspense a bit. Oh, and the little twist I thought up might not go so well for you readers. Let's just say, there are going to be deaths. Yes, I said deaths with an 's,' meaning there's going to be more than one. Oh, and maybe a happy ending for someone. Will, please review!
