Whoo, 100 reviews. I love my reviews. You make me want to update.
The army of Men was trapped in a circle as a screech sounded on the wind. The giant eagles dove into the fray. Nira slashed through orcs, killing as many as possible. Éomer was knocked to the ground, losing his sword. Nira shot the orc standing over him before running over to him. She pulled a sword out of her bag and handed it to him.
"Thanks," he said, before she disappeared into the fighting again.
Nira found Gimli and Legolas and fought to get close to them. Nira and Legolas looked toward Aragorn as a troll lumbered toward him. The ugly creature knocked Aragorn to the ground and stepped on him. Aragorn pulled out his long knife and stabbed it in the foot.
"Avada Kadavra!" Nira yelled, aiming at the troll.
The spell hit the creature, sending it backwards. Nira turned to look at the Eye. It looked shocked before it began to flicker. The orcs turned toward the Eye before running away. The tower that held the Eye began to collapse. Nira smiled in relief as Sauron was finally destroyed.
"Frodo!" Merry yelled in triumph, echoed by the rest of those around him.
The ground shock as the volcano began to be destroyed. Aragorn, Gimli, Gandalf, Legolas, and many others watched in horror as the molten rock flowed down the side of the dying mountain. Nira ran forward, pulling Legolas with her. She threw up her hand and was grabbed by an eagle. The eagle put them on a second's back, and they flew toward the mountain.
"Frodo is dead, Nira," Legolas stated bluntly.
"No," she snapped in reply. "I don't know why, but I know he isn't dead. Help me look for him."
"You are going to be disappointed."
Legolas tried to look for Nira's sake, but didn't believe they would find anything. Nira scanned the rocks, combing over every surface for signs of life.
"Look," she exclaimed, pointing at a large bolder jutting out from the side of the mountain. "There they are!"
Legolas followed her hand to where she was pointing. He saw two hobbits lying motionless on the stone. The eagles swooped down and picked them up in their talons, before flying away from the mountain.
"Take us to Rivendell," Nira told the eagles. "And tell the rest that we are."
An eagle split off from the flock and soared down. He landed in front of Gandalf, bowing his head.
"A message from Lady Nira," the eagle said. "They are going to Rivendell. The hobbits are alive, for now. Lady Nira cannot assess their situation, until they get to Rivendell."
The eagle looked around at the men who were staring in amazement. He shook his head, ruffling his feathers in annoyance.
"Did you think we were stupid?" he asked the men. "Many creatures can talk. We just follow our Lady's orders."
With that, he took off, flying to catch up with the flock of eagles with Nira, Legolas, and the hobbits. When they arrived in Rivendell, Nira and Legolas jumped off the eagle's back and ran to find Elrond. Upon finding him, they took Sam and Frodo to rooms where they could be tended to. Nira healed Sam, with Legolas hovering around her, while Elrond saw to Frodo. The eagles arrived back to Rivendell with Gandalf, Merry, Pippin, Aragorn, Haldir, and Gimli the next day.
Nira spent the next few days tending to everyone's injuries. After everyone was healed, she spent much of her time with Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli. She would check in on Frodo often. Gandalf barely left the hobbits bedside.
When Frodo awoke, Merry and Pippin were too impatient and ran in to see him. Gimli went in behind them, then Legolas and Aragorn. Nira helped Sam into Frodo's room and backed away from the reunion.
"Hermione!" Frodo called finally seeing her, after talking to everyone else.
The hobbits all looked at her, but she didn't meet their eyes. She looked at Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli for support. They all smiled at her and nodded.
"I'm sorry," she told the hobbits. "I didn't tell you the truth. Since we were in Lorien, I have not been Hermione. I discovered that I was the last living descendant in a royal line of elves. I didn't tell you, because I didn't know how your minds would stand up against Sauron were you captured. I wasn't sure how you'd fare under torture either. I told Gimli, Aragorn, and Legolas because I had to."
"Why did you have to?" Sam asked.
"Gimli was there when I figured out that I wasn't dreaming. Aragorn knew of some of what a spoke. Legolas, I knew in my past life. Honestly, more than knew. We picked up where we left off before I was killed."
Legolas moved over to her and wrapped an arm around her waist. He kissed her cheek lightly, making her blush. Haldir walked into Frodo's room, keeping his distance.
"How were you killed?" Frodo asked.
"I was saving a friend who had been shot. I was healing him, when I was attacked and killed."
"Who was it?"
"That is irrelevant unless he decides to tell you. It doesn't effect that I did it."
"It was me," Haldir said quietly.
They all began to tell of what had happened to them since they had all parted ways. A week went by and Frodo little by little began to regain his strength. Gandalf had returned the Minas Tirith to oversee the preparations for Aragorn's coronation. They saddled up their horses to depart Rivendell for Minas Tirith, somewhat reluctantly.
Well, we're getting to the end, but there will still be some more fun in the coming chapters. The next couple are in rewriting phase, so they should be up soon, sooner, with reviews.
