Completely perfect. I was in love with him before I even knew his name." A girl who has gone nearly mad after a dream she had, saves an old woman and she's presented with a choice. Legolas/OC

16. Chapter 15

Super short chapter! The story will be ending in one, two or three chapters so brace yourself! This is a filler chapter. Enjoy and thanks for all the reviews! (I never thought that everyone would think she was going to die).

Disclaimer: I do not own Lord of the Rings.

Chapter 15:

For the longest time all there was, was pain and darkness. It could've been minutes, it could've been hours, it could've been days. Maybe it was even years. I couldn't tell. I was too focused on the agony I was in.

In the end, Lúthien saved me once more. I only saw her for a fleeting moment but she was a light through all the darkness. She smiled at me and kissed my forehead. I also heard a mention of a gift, barely above a whisper and suddenly my eyes were open and the pain had subsided.

I looked around to get my bearings and concluded that I must've been in some sort of hospital ward. Just as I thought that, a woman came rushing up to me. She must've been a healer.

"You're awake! No one has ever survived that poison!" she said, smiling widely. "I would inform your friends but they just left." I sat bolt upright, not feeling any pain at all anymore. Whatever the Elf had done, she had done it well.

"Where did they go?" I asked, urgently. I needed to see Legolas.

The woman's expression became grim.

"They took their army to Mordor. The Black Gate."

For a moment I just gaped at her. Mordor? Why? It was a suicide mission! Legolas would die; I knew it in my heart. Everyone else would too. None would be left to challenge the strength of Sauron and all would bend to his will once he obtained the Ring. I couldn't let that happen. I needed to do something; anything.

I jumped out of bed, thankful that all the poison had left my body.

"Where are you going?" yelled the healer from behind me as I ran out of the room. I didn't bother to answer.

I found an armory and grabbed anything I would need. I ran out of the citadel and made my way to a lower part of the city where I asked for directions to that "Black Gate" the healer spoke of. I also stole someone's horse. Oops.

I moved as fast as I could towards Mordor. I didn't know what I was going to do. I didn't have some sort of plan. I just knew that I needed to do something, even if it didn't really change anything. If I didn't do anything, I would never see Legolas again.

Love it? Hate it? PLEASE REVIEW! More reviews mean more chapters and I would love to hear your thoughts on the story! The review can be as long as you like, I really don't mind. I really want to get to150 reviews on this story *sheepish smile* since I will probably never have another story this popular. Like I said the story will be ending soon so I want to get the most reviews I can. Thank you. Also, it finally revealed what Lúthien's gift was! To be healed. Yay!
