Chapter 14 The Promise

Today was the day; they were to set out by noon. Faith knew this was going to be difficult for her. They planned to take another pony so she could ride on its back. Her head was spinning with what was going to occur. Suddenly there was a knock at her door.

"Come in!" she yelled as Legolas walked in.

"Faith? Are you almost ready?"

"Yes I am, lets get going." She answered as she walked past the blonde elf. Sometimes Legolas can't understand that girl.

They got to where the rest of the fellowship was waiting. She looked around, the hobbits looked nervous, Boromir and Aragorn looked eager, and the dwarf stood proud to be representing his kin in this battle for Middle Earth. Legoals and Faith joined them, as they all said goodbye to the elves of Rivendell.

"Be safe young one." Said Elladan who had his twin brother on one side and his little sister on the other.

"Don't worry I will be." She looked over to Elrond and bit her lip slightly.

"I'll be right back." She said as she left the three and walked over to Elrond.

"Lord Elrond, can I tell you something privately?"

"Of course Faith." He said as they both walked away from the group.

"Now what do you wish to tell me?"

"I knew the love of a father for only 7 years of my life, and with in that time it still felt wrong. Now I know it was."

"What do you mean dear child?" he asked confused by the young elflings words.

"My father loved me but was still distant from me, like I was some kind monster. But now that I have come here, I have received the true love of a father." She smiled up at him her freckled face glowing with joy. Elrond looked down at her with a confused look once again.

"You are like a father to me Lord Elrond. I hope that is alright with you." Elrond gave her a warm smile, knowing how precious the child was to him. She was like his daughter.

"Of course it is, for you are like my daughter." Faith face lit up with pure joy.

"Thank you Lord Elrond." She said as she began to walk back over towards the fellowship. But before she got there a grim thought crossed her mind.

"Lord Elrond?"

"Yes Faith?"

"You don't think, I mean she wouldn't send me back to my father. Would she?" Elrond's smile changed to a frown.

"I don't know little one. For your sake I hope not." Faith only nodded and walked back to stand next to Legolas.

Lord Elrond bid them all farewell and good luck as they left the gates of Rivendell. Faith sat on the pony that was given to her to ride during the journey Legolas leading it.

"Hey Legolas, promise me something!" she said quietly so only the two of them could hear.

"What is the promise?"

"What ever happens and what ever I learn, we'll always be friends!" Legolas smiled as he nodded knowing this was one promise he was never going to brake.

A/N: I'm so sorry everyone with school, my band and karate I've been really tied up lately and it's hard to get on here and write. I hope you all don't hate me and I'm really sorry that this chapter is so short please forgive me(puppy dog eyes)!
