Hermione- Idril/ Sparkling Brilliance
Severus- Iston/ The Wise One
Harry- Amarth/ Fate
Harry held Huan in his arms. He was glad that his friend was okay. Today, Aragorn was showing him around Rivendell. It was as beautiful as Harry had always imagined and the best part was Lady Arwen was too busy fussing over Hermione to bother with Aragorn at this point. They'd been shown Rivendell Home shortly after Harry's lecture three days ago. It was right next to the Waterfall and build into the side of the mountain.
"Lord Armarth!"
Harry sighed but turned to face the elf that had called to him.
"What does my sister want?" He asked.
"She bids you and I quote, "Come make your presentation before Rivendell is overrun with Dwarves. They have a right to know why Dwarves are marching on their lands." end quote."
"Oh, right, I forgot!" Harry cried, "The Dwarves! You must take me to Lord Elrond at once! Oh, no! Crap!"
Harry ran as fast as he could toward the "Throne Room" he had to give the presentation. He was out of breath by the time he reached the place.
"I'm so sorry!" He cried. Elrond's "Court" was there as was Legolas Greenleaf. "Okay, everything is set up so let's begin before the Dwarves swarm this place."
So he began explaining his plan in Quenya using the maps. He could tell that he was impressing the elves and he could also see that they were interested in his idea. When he finished someone came into the room.
"My Lord Elrond Dwarves have arrived!"
"I'm sorry!" Harry cried rubbing the back of his head. "This place is just so beautiful I couldn't resist!"
Elrond actually chuckled. Hermione face-palmed epically.
"Now then if you'd please show the Dwarves in there's one more thing I'd like to do," Harry asked Elrond.
Elrond nodded and soon Dwarves were sitting in the room. Harry flipped to pages Hermione had never seen.
"I will now speak in the Common Tongue so all may understand." Harry said, "As stated to everyone my goal for the Dwarven Liberation is Five years. After that time I will be gathering a company to drive the darkness out of Mirkwood..."
Harry screamed and created a barrier as Hermione tried to drown him in water. Harry grunted as she moved her staff to surround him in a bubble of water.
"ISTON!" Harry bawled.
Suddenly, a great burst of Air shot through the room knocking both Harry and Hermione over.
"STOP ACTING LIKE FOOLISH CHILDREN THIS SECOND!" Severus roared as both of their magic failed. He had his staff held out in front of it both hands on it.
"We're sorry." They both moaned as they lay on the floor their staves out of reach. "We'll be good."
"You'd better!" Severus snapped. "Now what's this about driving the Darkness out of Mirkwood?"
Harry was now weak and red in the face but got to his feet, grabbed his staff, and began his presentation again.
"I would need assurances that the Dwarves would do their best to not cut down any trees." Legolas stated, "Or they will not be allowed in our Realm."
"You will get them," Gimli stated.
"I don't suppose you have one of these presentations for men as well?" Elron asked.
Harry flipped some more pages and hit the top one hard with his wand that he was using as a pointer.
"Liberating Osgiliath..." He started only to get Hermione's staff to his head.
He fell to his knees. Holding his head. Hermione grunted when she was hit in the head seconds later by Severus.
"Stop abusing your brother!" Severus snapped.
"This boy has big aspirations." Arwen spoke.
"and the talent to pull it off with a little help," Aragorn stated. "It's Amarth's greatest dream to draw a map of all Middle-Earth, from it's lowest point to it's highest and everything in between. He figures why not help everyone along the way."
"So from here, we're heading to the Mountain?" Gimli asked.
"That's right." Harry agreed.
They'd stayed in Rivendell a month and now it was time to move on. The Dwarf forces that Harry had requested had finally gathered. Thorin having taken the longest to track down. The Elves had come quickly and the Ranger had just walked out of the Home when they were called for. Men had been alerted to their plans and had been set to send a legion each Harry had asked for one man and woman from Rohan and two men from Gondor.
Harry, Severus, Hermione, Gandalf, Huan, and Aragorn now stood with Legolas, Haldir, Thorin, Dwalin, Balin, Kili, Fili, Fáli, Dori, Nori, Ori, Oin, Gloin, Bifur, Bofur, Bombur, Gimli, Halbarad, Eowyn, Eomer, Boromir, Faramir, and against Harry's will Arwen.
"This is your idea of a small force?" Halbarad asked.
"Should I include the Hobbits?" Harry frowned, "What about Radagast and Beorn? I was trying to keep it small..."
"This is not small!" Hermione scolded. "You said we were keeping it small!"
"This is small," Harry told her as they got ready to leave.
"BIG BROTHER!"
Harry spun just in time to catch Ammi who was wearing a sword at her waist.
"I wanna come too!" Ammi insisted.
"HUAN, I SWEAR TO THE VALAR YOU ARE SO GROUNDED!" Harry snapped at the wolf who ducked his head and whined. Harry then looked back at Ammi. "I'm sorry, honey, but you're too young to go into such a big battle." He set her down. "Not too small, mind you, just too young. If you want when you're older I'll take you on a grand adventure but for now, I need you to go back to The Shire and do your lessons."
Ammi's lip trembled but she nodded.
"You promise!" she demanded. "You'll take me on a great adventure when I'm older!"
"Yep, the day you turn twenty I'll take you on a great adventure!" Harry swore. "You have my word!"
"Okay, " Ammi nodded, "But I'm taking all the sweet roles with me!"
With that she hugged Harry, Aragorn, Hermione, Gandalf, Severus and tried to steal Huan.
"I'm gonna need him, Ammi." Harry said, taking his wolf back. "There's a hidden jar of cookies hidden behind the stock of spinach in my kitchen. Homemade last night."
Ammi squealed and ran off.
Harry sighed.
"Sorry about that, lets go." Harry said.
"Let me get this straight," Eowyn said, as they approached the pass two days later. "You're planning on liberating the entire of the Misty Mountains with two Rangers, fifteen Dwarves, three Elves, two men, two women, a wizard, a wolf, and whatever you three are?"
"We'll be warding off every area we liberate," Harry explained, "Those will be our safe points. Dwarves, Rangers, and Elves will then move into those safe points to get them livable again and be there for healing should we need it and not be able to do it ourselves during battle." The party had stopped accepted being part of the party and was now getting a drawing handed to them. "Our main objective is to liberate the Mountains. Our secondary objective is to find this creature called Gollum and catch him alive and unharmed. The reason is if we catch him alive we greatly cripple the Great Enemy. That won't make sense I know but it is the truth. He's to be brought to me, Iston, Idril, Aragorn, or Gandalf depending on which unit you are sent with at that given time. Idril has devised schedules for all of us that will take effect as soon as we establish our first Safe Point. One of us will be leading you at all times. Halbarad is never to be alone with Idril or I'll make the Earth swallow whoever allowed it whole..."
He grunted as he got Hermione's staff to the head.
"Amarth is not allowed to use any big magic," she stated instantly. "So whoever is on his team has to be mindful of this. If he does you are to get him and your team to the nearest safe point and or home as fast and as safe as you can manage."
"You are not to leave anyone behind," Severus stated. "Elves, Dwarves, Men, Women, Wolf, Wizard, Ranger, we are all together in this."
Everyone nodded they understood the rules but some were wondering why they'd been chosen for this mission.
"The doors are just ahead." Gandalf said, releasing a Butterfly. "Radagast will come for healing purposes only he does not wish to fight. But he says Beorn may join us after awhile. He's having problems with wild wolves in his territory."
"Perfect!" Harry said, brightly still rubbing at his head. "Lets go then."
Just ahead meant two hours climbing the mountain to reach the old door that the Goblins had used before The Hobbit. Gandalf remembered it well.
"Weapons at the ready!" Harry ordered drawing Sting. "Fáli, Fili, Kili, Halbarad, and Huan are with me."
"Boromir, Eowyn, Nori, Bifur, and Ori are with me." Hermione spoke.
"Faramir, Balin, Thorin, Bofur, and Arwen are with me." Severus stated.
"Dwalin, Gloin, Eomer, Bombur, and Haldir." Aragorn spoke.
"Dori, Nori, Ori, Gimli, and Oin." Gandalf ordered.
"Stay with your group as much as you can," Harry ordered, "No, Halbarad, you cannot be reassigned. You know very well why you are on this mission."
Halbarad sighed to himself. He just had to fall in love with this little psycho's sister didn't he? He was never going to survive.
Gandalf opened the door.
"Activate lights," Hermione ordered.
Everyone touched the new necklaces that they now wore with glowing orbs around them.
They entered the cave and the door shut behind them.
Harry had a small panic attack once the darkness hit them but then was fine. He watched Hermione ward the right entrance.
"If I'm right then left is the way we want to go first," Hermione stated, "Right will lead us right where we want to go."
"How is that a bad thing?" Eowyn asked.
"Don't ask stupid questions." Severus told her. Orcrist was glowing in his hands. "Faint we're not close to any."
Hermione absently touched her butterfly and nodded.
Harry took a deep breath and they began moving to the left. They stuck to their assigned groups.
Eowyn was sure that she wasn't the only one wondering how she'd gotten assigned this mission. She wasn't complaining mind you, she was just confused as to how her name had come up. Maybe once they took a break or stopped for the evening she would ask.
