Chapter Five
AN: Wow chapter five did not think that I would get this many. Thanks to those who reviewed.
Bianca's POV
Two days later Legolas and I came to Rivendell. It was beautiful! As we rode toward the gates, we came upon the guards who were waiting there.
"Prince Legolas!" one of the guards said, this guard had long golden hair and blue eyes.
"Glorfindel!" Legolas replied, leaping off his horse to embrace the older elf, "It is so good to see you."
"Same to you elfling."
Just then the other guard stepped forward and asked, "Who is the girl with you Prince Legolas?"
"She is a young traveler I met on the way.": Legolas replied, "She is looking for her friend who was traveling with her." Here he looked over to Glorfindel, "Has anyone else who is not from around come?"
"No, but the twins are out and should be back in less then three days maybe they have found her."
"That is likely." Legolas replied, "They seem to find things where ever they go."
"You think I don't know." Glorfindel said wryly.
At this point I decided not to listen anymore, who were these twins that they were talking about? I vaugely remember Anna saying something about a pair of Elvin twins, but I can't remember their names. Drat! Oh well I will remember sooner or later. Just then Legolas taopped me on the shoulder and said,
"Are you ok Bianca?"
I looked at him startled but answered, "Yes are we going to Rivendell?"
"Yes Lord Glorfindel is going to escort us."
'Yeah' I thought , 'Now I just wait for Anna to come and rthen we figure out how to get home.'
Anna's POV
As Elladan made sure that Elrohir could travel safely I turned to Nathan and Michael, "Alright you two I want to know how you two got here."
Nathan looked at me, "What do you mean how did we gethere I have no freaking idea how we got here!"
"Calm down Nathan." I said, "I meant what were you doing before you were here."
"We were watching the Lord of the Rings, the Fellowship of the Ring." Michael said, "Then the next thing we know we are in the woods and something is chasing us. All we have is the backpack and what we had on us at the time."
"Were you watching the extended versions?"
"Yeah. How did you know?" Nathan answered.
"Because that is what happened to us."
"Us?" Nathan asked. "Last time I checked "us" means two. You are one person Anna. Only one"
I laughed, "My fried was watching with me. She was probably pulled in too."
Just then Elladan called me over and, after I had walked over he said,
"Alright Elrohir is ready to travel. We can leave as soon as we find some water."
"My friends have some in their packs." I said, "And so do I we can make it to Rivendell if it isn't to far away." I knew that with our backpacks we could get water whenever we needed it.
"No we are only a day or so away."
"Alright then we can definitely make it." I turned back to Nathan and Michael, "So you guys up for more walking?" I said with a smile on my face.
Both groaned and Nathan looked at me, "Why more walking?"
Legolas' POV
When we arrived in Rivendell, we were immediately escorted into Lord Elrond's study.
"Legolas!" Lord Elrond came over to me and engulfed me in a hug.
"Lord Elrond," I said returning the hug.
Elrond gave me one of his famous looks, "How many times do I have to tell you that you don't have to call me that."
I looked down at his feet and murmured something under his breath.
Lord Elrond raised an eyebrow in his famous "look". "Your father says what?"
"Not to call you Elrond because it is not prince like." Just then I remembered the girl that was sitting next to me. "Lord Elrond this is Bianca."
The girl smiled and looked up at the Lord. "Hello Lord Elrond."
"Mae govannen penneth." Elrond said looking down at her and smiling.
'Great' Legolas thought, 'She gets the smile and I get a glare as soon as I walk in.' Out loud I ask, "Where are the twins, hir nin?"
"I don't know exactly." Elrond says, "They were on a hunting trip. They left last week. Although they should be back today."
I nod, the twins did have a knack for attracting trouble. Then I turned to Lord Elrond, "If they bring anyone with them could you tell us?"
"I will. Legolas?"
"Yes hir nin."
"Whom are you waiting for?"
"Her friend." I said pointing to Bianca.
Elrond nodded and turned away, clearly dismissing us.
Elladan's POV
I sighed as he heard the three humans arguing over something. Now mind you he did not know half the words they were using, but they had started arguing over who got to carry the backpacks, then over what weapons they wanted. The girl, Anna, had said no to guns, Kukris, and tanks, whatever those were. When he had asked what those things were Anna had glared at the two boys, Nathan and Michael, and told them not to talk about things from E-A-R-T-H anymore. Then she had told Nathan that no he could not get his kukris out. Not unless there ere more orcs, goblins, trolls and ringwraiths to fight. Nathan had protested saying that if they were caught he would not have them out in time. This was when I had stopped listening, it was pointless.
I looked down at Elrohir and thought about what would happen if my twin did not make it.
"Elladan?"
I turned around to see Anna walking next to him. "Yes?" I said
"Is he going to be okay?" she asked pointing to Elrohir.
I looked down at his twin again, "I don't know." I admitted. I hated to say that, but unless we made it to Imladris in less then a day he would slip into a coma and that wouldn't wake up.
Anna seemed to read my thoughts as she then asked, "How long?"
"We need to get him to our father very quickly. He only has a day before he slips into a coma."
Anna nodded and said, "We can go as fast as needed."
I looked at her, "Are you sure?" I asked in disbelief as I looked over at the boys who were falling further and further behind.
"They can go fast if needed." She said.
"Alright," I said, "Lets go."
Anna's POV
I walked back to the boys and said, "Lets go, we need to get to Imladris in less than a day."
"What?" Nathan said, "How far is it?"
I thought back to the map Elladan had shown me. A little less than half a klick, or 28 to 30 miles."
Nathan and Michael looked at me and I glared at them. "Come on you guys, I am just going to imaging I am in the Two Towers and live with it. I suggest you do the same." Then I took of running after Elladan.
I heard the boys running after me, and I resisted the urge to smile I knew that they would.
A couple of hours later I ran up along side Elladan and glanced down at Elrohir, who was in Elladan's arms, "when do you think we will get there."
Elladan glanced at me and asked, "Why do you care?"
"Because you guys are very nice to us and you rescued us." 'Also you are some of my favorite characters in the Lord of the Rings world.' I thought 'I cannot just leave you guys here'
I stopped and stared as we reached the gates of Rivendell. "OMG." I looked up at the stunningly beautiful elve city. It was taller then I had imagined and covered at least 10 miles of land. And that was just the city! There was about 10 more miles of land surrounding the city and then there was a wall and gates surrounding that. It was all I had ever imagined it to be.
"Do you like it?"
I turned to see Elladan standing next to me, "Like it?" I asked incredulously, "I love it!"
Elladan smiled, and motioned toward Nathan and Michael, "They seemed kind of ... startled."
I looked back to where the boys were and saw that they were staring with the same kind of shocked look on there faces as I probably did. "Wait... did I look like that?"
Elladan chuckled, "Yes you did Anna."
I groaned at that news, they looked like idiots and, IF I had looked that way, then so had I.
Elladan seeing my discomfort said,"Shall we go down to the gates?"
Forgeting my embaresment, my eyes lightened up and I started to pull on Elladan's arm saying, "Yes, yes ,yes! Nathan Michael!" These two names were yelled over my shoulder, as Elladan and I ran down toward the gates and the elves guarding them.
Elvish used:
Mae Govannen – well met
Hir nin - my lord
