CHAPTER 7

AMY

After many days of weary travel, we stopped to rest. But there was something familiar about them that I couldn't quite place. I sat down on a rock and thought for a minute. Where had I seen them before?

Legolas took a seat next to me. He looked at me with concern and asked, "What troubles you my dear Amy?"

"There is something strangely familiar about this place. I have a feeling something bad is about to happen. Just, keep a watchful eye." I sat and though for a minute and looked around.

There was Boromir fighting with Merry and Pippin, and Aragorn talking with Gandalf and Gimli. And just as it hit me, Legolas stood up. He saw something in the air, moving quickly towards us.

"What is that?" Sam asked.

"Nothing, it's just a whisp of cloud." Gimli answered.

"It's moving fast…against the wind" Boromir noticed. My heart started racing. I knew what it was.

"Crebain from Dunland!" Legolas yelled.

"Hide!" I quickly grabbed Legolas' arm and dove into a bush. He fell right on top of me.

"Ouch!" I whispered as rolled off of me. He grabbed me and pulled me closer as we looked up and watched the birds fly over us. Then, he looked at me and ran his fingers gently over my forehead. He winced as he quickly pulled them away.

"It lights fire when there is evil afoot." He whispered as I then quickly ran my fingers over it and winced as I felt the pain of a burn. He then grabbed my fingers and gently kissed them. Then I felt someone's hand on my shirt as he pulled me out of the bush and Legolas stood up and brushed the dirt off. Then we realized that everyone was staring at us.

"Not here, now is not the time to show affection. We must hurry." Aragorn grabbed his bags as everyone stopped staring and went to get their stuff.

He walked away and Legolas looked at me and said, "It no longer burns."

AMY

We moved quickly through the blizzard over the pass of Caradhras, struggling to get through the snow. Accept, of course, for Legolas who walked over it. He kept a watchful eye on me, and kept asking me if I was all right.

"Yes, Legolas, I'm fine. If I feel weak, I'll tell you. I promise."

It seemed that we had been walking forever, and covered absolutely no distance. I was really mad because we had to turn around like, halfway there and do it all for nothing. Then it hit me, this exact spot looked SOO familiar, it had to be where Saruman tried to bring down the mountain. Legolas turned back and looked at me. Then his eyes widened.

"What did I do?" I asked.

"No, your forehead." Then I realized that the snow on my face was starting to melt away from the fire. The mountain began to rumble and shake.

"There is a fell voice in the air." Legolas told us all. Then the first avalanche came and we all dove back to the wall of the cliff. Gandalf stepped forward and attempted a spell. The mountain began to shake again and the only thing I could think to do was to jump forward and push him back against the cliff. The snow fell and so did I. I was falling off the mountain and the only thing I could hear was my own heartbeat and Legolas screaming my name. My Life was flashing before my eyes, however short it was. Then, I heard my mother's voice in ringing in my head. "Laura Amy Willis! Pull yourself together!"

Instantly and reflexively I pulled my daggers out of my belt and drove them into the ice. I braced myself as the snow came over my head. Legolas started to cry with despair. He thought I was lost.

"Shut up you idiot I'm not dead yet!" I screamed. He looked down as the snow cleared and saw me there holding my daggers shoved in the ice. He immediately started barking out orders and yelling at everyone trying to find rope. Meanwhile, I yanked one of the daggers out of the ice and started swinging. I managed to get enough strength up to swing up about a foot and a half and drive it into the ice.

"What is she doing?" Pippin asked them.

"She's trying to climb the ice. She's mad!" Merry answered him.

"Yes, but she's not a normal human either." Frodo said.

I continued to try and scale up the side of the mountain as Sam dug through his pack trying to find his rope. I heard another avalanche coming.

"GET BACK!" I yelled. Everyone jumped back and I braced myself for the next mound of snow. Finally, Legolas found the rope and didn't hesitate to toss it down to me. I wrapped it around my hand. I pulled my daggers out of the ice and shoved them back in my belt and I waited as they slowly pulled me up. As I started to ascend, I could hear Saruman's voice in the air.

"Hurry up!" I screamed as the mountain started to shake again. Just as the next avalanche started to fall they jerked up the rope, they all fell to the ground and I came fling over the edge and I landed right in Legolas' arms.

"Don't do that EVER again." He whispered in my ear.

"I don't plan on it anytime soon." He pulled me up from the snow and held me for the longest time, what seemed like an eternity. He just seemed glad to hold me, and glad that I was still alive. Slowly, I heard the sound of our heartbeats come to resting pace. Then Frodo decided that we would go through Moria and we turned around and walked back trough the blizzard, Legolas' hand never letting go of mine. He would never have me risk myself like that again.
