Chapter Five: 'I have to What?

Mandi followed Haldir through the big double doors, down a small corridor and into a vast open room. Lit brightly and done in only one color...white. Drab and ordinary, Mandi figured. But it was beautiful in its own right, she did admit to herself.

On the one end of this humongous white drab room was a pair of steps, that went up, but at the foot of these stairs was two thrones. Both intricately decorated, and looking extremely inviting. The plush seats seemed to call to her, beckoning for her to 'come and sit'. Haldir stood there waiting and looking up the stairs, curious Mandi's eyes followed his, but there was nothing. She groaned feeling perplexed that the two old buzzards had not shown up. Her feet began to feel overwhelmingly tired and sore.

She moved forward and sat right down upon one of the thrones, took off a boot and began to rub her blistered, tired feet. Haldir who had been standing there straight as a poker and unmoving, watching the mid-air, suddenly moved forward. "Mandi!" he whispered the yell. "What in mordor are you doing?" His question was a result of utter shock.

Mandi, not feeling one ounce of propriety answered as loudly as she could. "What's it look like you pointy eared oaf?" her voice came out and vibrated through the main room.

Orophin and Rumil stood toward the back of the room, not able to contain their laughter...much. Haldir seemed quite taken aback by this atrocious girl's lack of respect to anyone, including himself. Something had to give. He hoped within himself that Galadriel could do something about it.

It seemed within a hair breath of a second, that the light in the room grew so bright that it stung Mandi's eyes. In her usual way out it came. "Hey someone give me some sunglasses..it is too bright for this old girl." She stood, one foot booted, and the other as bare as the day she was born. Turning she saw the source.

Coming down the step came this couple, both emanating this celestial light, both looked like females, but she could not tell, the damned light was too bright. She tried shielding the light but it did not work. "Hey someone turn down the high beams. I can't see" she said squinting.

The couple made it to the bottom of the stairs, and looked dead at her. Neither said a word, but only stared at her. Soon, Mandi felt as though she was a criminal before the firing squad. Shrugging her shoulders and holding out her hands. "What?" she asked them.

The one whom she thought was a female, came forward and looked her in the eye intently for a second then began to walk around her just staring at her. "You girl, has come into our woods, uninvited. Who are you and right did you-" he started but Mandi huffed out.

"First off, I did not know these woods were taken. Two, I already told Mr. Pompous Ass over there I didn't mean to.' she spat out irritated.

The elf Man looked at her in contempt. "First off, I am the Lord of these woods, and you will show some respect. Do not speak unless you are spoken to." he told her venom dripping from his voice.

She lifted her chin and scowled at him. "For one things Mr. Lady, who wears a dress! I am twenty-five years old and an adult. It is you that needs to show respect and stop treating other me as though I am a child." she said her eyes furrowed.

"Listen hear, girl. In our realm you will treat all with respect and honor. You will keep your mouth shut and you will do as you are told. Here, our people are your elders, and it would serve you well to remember that." he said having had enough and returned to his love's side.

Mandi went to say more, but was abruptly stopped when Haldir came to her side and clasped a hand to her mouth. She tried to push his hand away, but Rumil and Orophin had moved to hold both arms. Mandi struggled for a moment then got tired of fighting. It was no use, elves were so much more powerful than her.

Haldir glared at her a moment then looked to the Lord and Lady. "My Lord, My Lady it is a delight to see you both. I apologize for the delay, but our journey was tiresome for our charge." Haldir said as he bowed, his hand still to Mandi's mouth. Tired of being shushed, she opened her mouth and then bit down upon Haldir's hand. He yelped out in pain.

Her mouth now free, Mandi wriggled some more and looked to the Lord and Lady. Celeborn's eyes set on the atrocious girl. "Was that necessary, Mandi?" he asked looking quite contempt at her.

"Yep, after what I have been through. Quite so." she answered without any remorse.

The Lady stared at her, Mandi saw a look that she could only describe as scrutiny. She felt something trying to brush her mind, but she would shake her head and clear her thoughts. This went on many moments, then the Lady smiled warmly and looked at her mildly amused. "It seems, my dear ones, this little spitfire knows how to block me." she commented.

Mandi knew what the Lady meant, she had remembered the stories of the Lady having abilities to read minds, thoughts and sense feeling. Thank god, she was able to block her, cause deep down Mandi felt quite out of sorts being here.

The three brothers looked at the Lady in shock, then to Mandi. How was that possible? Celeborn tilted his head to study Mandi. "How is that possible my love?" he asked his wife, his eyes never leaving Mandi.

"I can, because it is no one's business on how I feel, or think." Mandi said looking from The lord to the Lady. When no one spoke, Mandi continued. "Look, this place is beautiful and all, but if you would please, lady, wave your magic wand and send me home. I have my life to get back to, and I am sure you all would love to see me go."

Haldir stared at Mandi, his eyes unfeeling, passive. Orophin and Rumil looked at the lord and Lady. The Lady came forward reached out to touch Mandi's cheek. Mandi pulled back. The Lady's hand stayed in mid-air for a moment then dropped. "I am sorry, Mandella, daughter of David and Sharon, but you cannot leave." the lady's words came out, with no emotion, not feeling, only the bleak sound almost like a warning.

Mandi looked at her, stomped her booted foot, and shouted. "What do you mean I cannot leave? You are supposed to be all-powerful, all-knowing. Just say a little spell, and poof! I will be gone, forever." Mandi demanded.

"I am sorry, little one, you cannot go home. You must stay here." The lady said again.

"I must-" she stopped threw her hands in the air, and the stream of obscenities that came out was almost like thunder, but she stopped and looked from one elf to the other. "I have to stay here? Oh hell no! I want to leave now. I object to this decision. I hate it here, with your elven people, false generosity. Not to mention man handled or should I say elf handled. Your human molestors! And that Pompous ass named Haldir. Hell Fucking No, send me home. Of all the things I have lived through, the lies, torture, the hate mails, the down right name calling. I would rather lay down at the foot of mount doom, spread my legs and beg Sauron to come and take me, I am his. At least he is already full of hate, and won't give a Damn about my fat Rolls. I swear to god, I will get my vengeance." The stream of insults and the demanding was not really pointed to anyone, was beginning to sting in Celeborn's ears. Galadriel stood back, though not fully showing her amusement on her face, her eyes shone with it. Rumil and Orophin bit their lip in attempt to hide their smiles and Haldir was cocking his head to the side just listening.

The stream of words continued, now she spoke of the things on the borders. "I swear, by whatever god put me here. I will get those stupid bitch elleths for molesting my person. I will kick all those elves who stuck those damn pointy sticks in my faces." she was about to continued when Celeborn had enough.

"Enough!" he screamed out in a voice that caused all of them to shut up and listen, including Galadriel, who stared at him shocked that he had raised his voice. "What in Mordor, young Mandi are you speaking of?" he said walking to stand in front of her.

Now Mandi was afraid to speak, the elfy king had spoken and looked like he could bite the head off a fluffy rabbit. "Which part, My lord?" she spoke meekly almost sounding like a mouse.

"What happened on the border?" he asked now looking mildly interested.

"What about the fact that when I approached the edge of the woods I was grabbed like a two-bit criminal, elf handled and slung at the feet of Mr. Arrogant there." she said pointed at Haldir who had both hands clasped in front of him, his gaze to the floor. "Then when it came to 'helping me.' It was forced. I was clearly told that I would be made to allow them to help me. To make matters worse, these two, bitches nearly raped me, by forcing me to take my clothes off, and when I fought them, they started chanting something that knocked me out. Not to mention, I was driven like a work mule to get here." she wrinkled up her nose and lifted a foot and begin rubbing it. "By the Way, if any of you cares...My feet fucking hurt."

Celeborn heard her words. Though colorful, he understood it loud and clear. His wife had known what happened but it was not told to him personally. He looked to Haldir and his brothers, then to his beloved. Looking at her one more time, he lifted his forefinger and spoke. "Alright little one, not one more word from you, unless you clean it up. Understood.' Mandi shook her head yes. Celeborn was silent a moment before speaking. "Haldir, is what this child said true?" he asked looking directly to Haldir.

"Yes, My lord, but all was rectified. Proper punishments have been implemented on the wrongdoers. As for the journey here, I do not think I was as she stated, 'Driving her like a Work Mule'. She complained and irritated us all the way here." He said looking at Mandi who looked like she would explode.

Celeborn went to stand next to his beloved. He leaned to her as she spoke quietly to her. Galadriel came forward with a warm smile and spoke. "Mandella, you shall stay here in our land. Live among us. You will learn our ways and embrace it. Stray a little, and you will fall. Embrace it, you will succeed. Do not be troubled by your past, but only remember, your past does not make you what you are now. I expect you to overcome your past, and improve yourself. With Haldir's help and mine, you will become something far better than you are now." She said.

Mandi's eyes shot to the lady, surprised. Of course she hated the sound of that. She protested, "With Haldir's help? Just what in the hell is that supposed to mean? I am not staying with him if that is what you mean. I will kill him before it is all over." She pleaded, but the lady only ignored her.

Haldir's gaze shot to his lady, silently questioning what she meant. She motioned to Rumil and Orophin. "Take her to the talan directly across from Haldir's. Saralonde is there waiting now to help with Mandella. Haldir I must speak to you after they leave." she said returning to her place beside her beloved.

Mandi was stunned, being forced to do something was not how she liked it at all. She stepped forward. "You mean, I have to put up with HIM the whole time I am here? I will not! He hates me, and I hate him." she was stopped before she could go any further.

"Mandi, you will keep quiet! My love, has spoken, her decision is just and fair. Now off with you!' Celeborn said, motioning for the two brothers to take her away. Celeborn, watched as the two brothers wisked her away, kicking and protesting the whole way. He laughed within himself when he heard her call them all Mutineers! This child would be, just as his lady wife said, a challenge.

Haldir was shocked by what had just transpired.
