Chapter thirteen

What I have a SON????????????????????

-------------------------------------------------------------------

---Last time---

Violent snow storms raged of the snowy mountain's curse. Bitter winds howled throughout the night that hardly a fire could be lit. Snow built up many leagues before them that often they felt they were going to be buried alive and Aragorn pushed them further. As they near the summit of the mountain, the Halflings were in no position of climbing themselves. Gandalf went up first with Merry, followed by Gimli by himself. Boromir shouldered Sam, Aragorn had Frodo. Finally, Legolas carried Pippin along with some of their supplies. He was the most skilled in climbing the snow and at that point, Caradhras unleashed its most powerful blow. Legolas struggled with each climb and Pippin held on tighter to the Elven prince. As they reached the landing, Aragorn and Boromir helped Pippin off Legolas' back along with supplies. As Aragorn reached out a hand to help Legolas, Caradhras erupted with an avalanche. Legolas lost his footing so suddenly that he pulled Aragorn with him. The avalanche was so sudden that they didn't have enough time to react. The snow covered wind blow the two down as the rest of the Fellowship watch on with horror stuck on their face as two of their friends are falling to their doom.

"NNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

---Present---

The fellowships were stunk at what happened to their friend. First, Legolas and Aragorn fall of the cliff, and second, soon after the fall Frodo screamed as if two opposite power were fighting for control in his head before passing out. Sam ran to his master's side to make sure he was all right.

The snow storm seems to have slow down and falling much gentler then before, but the wind picked up for a split second as if someone or something has dived down. They heard the swiping of wings and looked up to see two giant eagles with their fallen friends in their claws and two people sitting on top of them. The eagles slowed to a stop in front of the fellowship and put the two they have catch down and moved a little way as their companions jumped down.

One of them was a woman and the other a teenage boy. They were both done in green cloak, brown boots, and everything else is hidden from view by the cloak and its hood. The only reason the fellowships were able to tell the gender was because of their movement. The woman went to Frodo to and checkup on his condition, and singed in relief that he is still alive and well only exhausted because of two power collision. He would be up in half an hour or so. While the boy knelt to check if the elf and the human was alright after all it's not everyday eagles come to the rescue.

Finally after checking up on them the two pull of their hood to reveal blond hair and blue eyes. The male was clearly related to the female, but what surprised them the most is his uncanny looks, the same kind as that of Aragon.

"Your friend will be all right and would be up in an hour or less," said the woman as she looked around the group.

"Not to sound rude, but May I ask whom you are?" asked Gandalf as he watched the newcomer carefully. He could tell they were powerful just not how much.

"Oh how rude of me, I am Serenity and his is my son Aaron," Serena introduce them.

At hearing her name Legolas and Aragon were jerked out of their stunk stupor and looked from Aaron to Serena.

"Sere is it really you?" question Legolas while Aragon watched his wife and apparently child enable to form any word or think coherently, than back at his long time friend.

'She really did comeback as she said she would in her letter now that we have found the ring, and I have a son,' thought Aragon happy to finally have his family back with an addition.

Serena turned around to look at the two that her son and she had catch with the help of their eagle friends. To say she was shocked to see them here would be an understatement, she knows they would be in the fellowship and expected to see them once they got to Lothlorien. She quickly pulled out of her shocked face and smiled at the people gathered around her after the outburst from legolas.

"Hello Legolas, I didn't expect to see you here," Serena told Legolas as she smiled at him. "I am guessing you are the fellowship. I thought I wouldn't see you until you reached Lothlorien at the least."

"Mom, the hobit is walking up," Aaron told Serena as he looked at the group. He didn't hear what Legolas say to his mother as he had been busy making sure the hobbit didn't got stuck in his own mindscape.

"So who are you people and where are you heading?" he asked the group after Frodo waken up with a guarded look when he saw the way Aragon and the others were looking at his mother.

"I am Frodo Baggins from Shire," Frodo said with a little smile.

"Samwise Gamgee, but you can call me Sam," said Sam from beside his master and friend.

" Merry," said Marry with smile that spelled out trouble for everyone else.

"Pippin, the Thain of the Shire," said the "Prince of the Halflings" with the same smile as that of Marry.

"Boromir, son of Denethor II, Steward of Gondor," said Boromir with a small bow.

"Gimli, son of Gloin," the Dwarf said with his ever shirp ax in hand while sitting around the fire in the cave they have found not so long ago.

"Gandalf the Grey, one of the five Istari," said the old immortal wizard.

"Legolas" he still looked at Serena as if he is seeing a lost ghost that has suddenly returned not comprehending what the others were saying around him.

Aaron looked at all of them with a calculated look to see where they stand before turning to Legolas and the last person that haven't introduced himself. He looked at the elf for a long time as he looked at his mother.

"Mom, the blizzard will come back in ten minutes. We better get moving," said Aaron.

"I'm sure you have a lot of questions that demand answers but at your present situation, I suggest that we leave the mountains or take a safer course first. I will tell all of you everything, I promise," said Serena to Legolas and Aragon and the other while standing up.

They all knew that she was right, even Gandalf and Aragorn had to agree. "The way through Caradhras is blocked, we must turn back," said Gandalf gravely.

They made their way back until the weather proved more 'livable' where they could finally rest. At first, nobody spoke as the Hobbits tried to start a fire but to no avail. Then Serena said, "C'mon little one, let me give you a hand."

With that, she produced a single parchment with weird symbols on it. She held it at the temple of eyes and muttered a few incoherent words as fire was ignited on the parchment. She threw it on top of the sticks and firewood as they were caught, the fire began to spread. "The fire should last all night."

Gandalf let out a grunt at the bottom of his throat while the Hobbits crowded closer to the warm flames. Boromir stared at her for he knew that no ordinary woman could possess such a power. While Legolas and Aragon looked on, unsure of the lady before them. They know who she is and what she is capable of and what they didn't know was how the other knows of her.

Serena spread out a blanket and drifted off to sleep. She had been restless for many nights, for tracking the Fellowship and working on rebuilding her parent's kingdom with the remaining people and those who wishes to join had taken its toll on her. Now more than ever, she needed her sleep. She knew the days to come shall not be easy but at least sleep will bring her some much needed comfort. With that, she was the first of the Company to drift off to the realm of dreams.

Serena woke up by the violent shaking of Boromir. She realized that the rest of the Company was already awakening because Caradhras has erupted once more. Its anger was fuelled by the fact there were still trespassers on its pasts and this time there were eleven people and two egeles instead of the previous nine.

"My apologies, milady, but we must go for our lives would be endangered the longer we stay."

She nodded and hurriedly gathered her belongings in a bundle with Boromir's help. As she tightened the straps to her pack, she caught Frodo's gaze and she gave him a wane smile. However, he did seem somewhat relieved and gave her a weak smile back.

She went to her son and shook him wake as well. She knows he was just as tired as her if not more. After he was awake she went to their eagle friends and gave them some food from her bag she always carries. She wrote a note explaining to her grandmother what's happening and gave it to the eagles to give it to her before they left.

She looked around to see that the Caradhras was about to unleashing another violent storm similar to the ones from the previous nights, where her son and she had to rescue the others form. She closed her eyes and let her power out. She glow a mixer of black, which is the observation of all color, and white, which is the release of colors, let it mix with the nature. She focusing her power on the mountains and the snow storm to clam to down long enough for them to get out of there alive. The original nine members of the Fellowship were spellbound by her power and thought of all the possibilities that could accrue. The storm died down, so they move.

"We have no choice but to make for the Mines of Moria. Caradhras is unforgiving and I have no intention of losing anybody to its frigid clutches." Said Gandalf on their way seeing that even thought the storm died down for now it will come back, but most importantly the enemy knows which road they were talking.

"But Gandalf ..." interrupted Aragorn.

"Yes, Aragorn. I know of your troubles and concerns of the Mines but surely you will agree that path before us is blocked. Also, I have ventured once into the dark tunnels of Moria and come out alive."

"I too have come out alive from the dark mines but it is not an experience I shall like to relieve again. Still, I know your decision is for the best."

"The Mines of Moria! My cousin Balin can give us a royal welcome. I shall lead the way with you Gandalf!"

"Very well, Gimli, son of Gloin. Perhaps, some of my fears will be rested with you by my side."

Once everyone agreed to take the course they set out in the direction of Moria. Serena and Aaron stayed in the back of the fellowship, but they were joined by Legolas and Aragon. Serena acknowledged them once the danger past.

-----------------------------------------------------

The west door to Moria lies near a dark lake beside the Caradhras and Gimli was more excited than the rest of the group with each step. Legolas held a certain 'fear' for the mines being a Woodland Elf, he desired sunlight and the outdoors. But nevertheless, it was for the best.

As they reached the location of the door, they were met only with darkness and no door. Boromir who had objected to coming this way in the first place, said "We should have gone another way through my city and among my people. There it is closer to Mor..."

He was about to say Mordor but he quickly remember that not every member among them was fully aware of their quest and the two new arrival are yet to be cleared of their intention. Gandalf recovered from the awkward moment by saying "Here it is. The door was sealed by ancient magic by Dwarves and Elves at a time when both races were at peace."

There was brief silence that befell on the group. As the moon rays pierced through the clouds and illuminated the way. Gandalf read the Elvish words engraved on the door. Gandalf set upon himself to try a series of spells to open the doors but none of them worked.

"Don't you know what the password is, Mr. Gimli?" asked Pippin.

"No, laddie. I am afraid that often it is those who make the password that knows it and the secret stays with them in their death unless they so choose to tell others."

The Halfling turned to Serena who was sitting at the edge of the lake where the moon rays were pouring through. "Surely, you possess some magic that can open those doors, Lady Serenity."

Serena turned to them and let out a chuckle, "No, little ones. Even if I did, it is not my place to tell you. You must find out on your own."

They looked away dejectedly. They began to throw stones into the water. Then, Aragorn grabbed their hands and said in a hushed tone, "No, we must not disturb the water here."

Suddenly Frodo jumped up, "Of course! It is a riddle. Speak 'Friend' to enter. What is the Elvish word for friend?"

"Mellon"

With that the doors began to open and everybody followed Gandalf's lead into the cave. Suddenly, tentacles from the water shot out and grabbed Frodo by the leg.

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!"

"Strider!"

Aragorn and Boromir rushed forward with their swords and began slicing their way through. Legolas' bow began to sing with each arrow he shot with accurate precision.

"Stop," commended Aaron to stop them attacking the creature. The others at the sudden commend coming form their young companion obeyed. He walked up to it and took all the arrows out and healed them.

"We did not mean to hurt you ancient one, we only meant for our friend to be free. Will you let him go and watch other intruders with intention to harm for us?" Aaron asked while bowing a little to show respect and submission.

After a while of consideration it released the Hobbit and Aragorn caught him in his arms. "Go quickly!"

"Thank you."

Everybody made their way into the cave and shut the door permanently behind them. Gandalf's staff glowed lighting their way.

"Well, Lady Serenity. Perhaps now is a good time as any to tell us who yourself and your son are?"

"I don't know where I should begin, so I will give you the over all until we get to Lothlorien," Serena told everyone. "As you know my name is Serenity. I was married when I was eleven. I had to live middle earth when I was fourteen on a journey when I found out that I was pregnant, and now that the ring has been found we would need to be united."

"How do you know about the ring?" Frodo asked.

"You could say I am a seer…"
