I stared at the King of Rivendell; he held such a calm face as if the ring of power was not under his domain….His home. I bowed to Elrond, I was asking for forgiveness since we had brought evil into his amazing palace. He got up from his intricately wood chair, and put a hand out for me to stop. I looked confused at what the king was doing. He spoke softly

"You do not have to bow down to me, Lady Alyan"

I stared at him for only a moment before speaking. "Then you shall not call me Lady Alyan, milord." He looked at me amused, "Did I really just give him an order?" I looked up frantically. "Only…! If you do not want to call me that" I said in a nervous tone.

He chuckled at my expense, putting a hand on my shoulder, his eyes shined greatly in the sunlight. "My dear, you are an interesting elf." I looked at him, with wide eyes.

"How is that Lord Elrond?" I asked in simple disbelief. Even if I had a blush on my cheeks, I would like to know. While looking down at the wooden floors, I spoke again.

"I am just barely an elf, I do not speak the language, nor do I look like an Elvin woman I have seen, they have long flowing beautiful hair while mine is short and a tad curly. And then when it comes to how they dress, I do not compare at all….I suppose I was meant to be a hobbit."

Elrond just stared into my face while he spoke softly "My dear that in which you say is not true, you have a beauty that shines over the rest of us, you have friends that would die for you, and you are destined to greatness"

I smiled and one tear dropped from my green eyes. "Am I crying because I am happy?" Elrond smiled, and said happily. "Now, I hear that your friend Frodo the hobbit is up, if I were you, I would make haste." I just nodded and quickly exited from the giant wooden doors. To my surprise Legolas was still there waiting patiently to go in. He didn't seem to notice me. I had taken the time to stare at him, and just like the rest of us he held grace, and stature, his long blond hair fell in tresses upon his shoulder. His bow laid on his back, moving up and down with his heartbeat. I blinked my eyes, and the next moment he was from out of my sight.

"Prince Greenleaf?"

I asked only above a whisper.

"I see that you are done my lady. I shall see you around"

His hot breath traveled from his mouth to my ear and neck. I shivered at his movement, and I stood still. "Click"

The door shut and I left to find my hobbits. "Please Mr. Baggins be alright" I spoke silently to myself. I walked down the hall, with eagerness on my face and worry in my heart.

-Legolas-

I walked over to where the king elf stood, at the balcony starring over his courtyard, where I was just at only a few moments before. My ears picked up on the laughter and small talk of hobbits beneath us.

"Lord Elrond?" I asked and he spoke back softly not taking his eyes off of the hobbits.

"Just watch Legolas"

I did as he said and looked below us, and there were just the hobbits I have heard talk about. Four of them stood together in a circle, until one with curly black hair looked up and smiled widely. "Alyan!" he yelled happily while yelling over to this person. She soon appeared from the hallway and ran over to the four hobbits, which crowded around her. "That is the elf from just a minute before" I said to myself.

"As you may already know, her name is Alyan, she like the other four hobbits came from the Shire. But as of right now, she carries the ring…"

I quickly looked at him, and spoke gravely. "This is the elf?" He just nodded to answer my question.

We sat in silence until he chuckled and spoke with a wisp of a smile on his face. "She holds a strong connection with each of the hobbits, since she grew up there. But it seems she does not speak a word of our language, or even know much about our culture."

I laughed at this strange elf. What a peculiar woman, that she was. "I've noticed that she holds a bow." I said shortly Elrond nodded and said "I have something to ask of you"

-Alyan-

"Frodo, how are you?" I asked concerned. Hugging him close to me, what I did not notice is the blush and snickers from the other hobbits at the time.

"All is well my friend, but it seems we have to go to a council meeting tonight, to decide what is happening with the ring…" Frodo said. I just looked at him and I sadden. I knew what this meant.

"Does that mean…After the meeting we are heading back to the Shire?" I asked. Frodo asked back quickly realizing my sudden mood change.

"If you do not wish to end our adventure yet, then I may have to come…Since I know you would get into trouble without Sam and me around."

I kissed his forehead, and spoke quietly into his ear. "My friend, it is time for you and Samwise to take a break…Maybe someday, we could go back on another adventure. But let us head back to the Shire tomorrow"

All the men were speaking around in a circle, well more like arguing, with one another. It had gotten out of hand when I brought up the ring and put it onto a stone pedestal. A hairy dwarf jumped up and proceeded to hit it with his weapon.

I flinched and squirmed as a quick image of the reoccurring black slit of an eye was in my mind once more.

But all began to yell, Dwarf, Wizard, Men, and Elves alike, screamed at who was going to destroy the ring.

"I will take it!"

Screamed a familiar voice "Frodo!" I whispered softly.

Everyone had attention on him, he spoke more calmly now. "I will take it" And there was many questions if he could even do it. I looked down to the stone floor, knowing the outcome. Gandalf spoke, saying "I will go with him"

Aragorn spoke, "You have my sword" I looked up surprised.

"And you have my bow" said Legolas. I smiled now,

A gruff voice spoke, "and my ax" it was the dwarf from before. I looked amazed.

Sam, Merry and Pippin came, out of the shadows were they were hiding, saying that they were going to come along with Frodo no matter what. And now, Frodo turned around to me as did everyone else did. It was silent, and I smiled to myself and said. "You know Frodo; I guess you cannot take a break."

All of the hobbits looked down solemnly. I looked up to everyone and grinned.

"Neither shall I, I suppose…So Mr. Baggins and company, you have my bow, and friendship"

They all seemed to smile. And we turned our attention to Lord Elrond.

"The ten of you should be the Fellowship of the Ring"

I hope you have liked chapter four. This last part, was my favorite to write.

And It seems to come to my attention form a reviewer of mine, that I have gotton a few things wrong, but please bear with me, I am just now starting to re-read the first book, and I shall re-do the the chapters when I can.

And for, a reveiwer who PMed me, i shall answer it here,: Yes, there wil surely be a "love scene" between Alyan, and whoever the reviewrs chose, and at that time, I shall make the rating M. But that will not happen for a long while.

But as for all my other reveiwers, you are amazing in helping with your advice to make my story much more appealing! I really do have to thank you for all the help and encouragment so far. 3 I am trying my hardest to live up to your expectations, so I take you advise to heart! :D (warrior princess 01, Elvewen)

Sorry if I have written any grammatical mistakes, I do try.
