" I am sorry to announce to you that you will be going back to school, but not your old school. You will be attending The Rosenberg School in London. It is run by one of my good friends and your training will be done there. We, that is, The council and I believe that you would be safer there."
"Alright, but I would like to warn my parents and friends, the few that I do have deserve to know," He looked at her then laughed nervously, "Their minds have been wiped, they will have no recollection of you," Amelias' face reddened suddenly, she felt sad, then, in an instant, sadness melted into anger and she yelled, " you had no right! You have shattered my only reality! How dare you? How- How could you," she felt warm tears stream down her face, "I-" the King tried to speak but Amelia wouldn't have it. She almost slapped him but she was too slow, "I understand you mad and afraid but-" she looked up at him then broke out into a hysterical laugh, "I cannot even begin to tell you how much you don't know about what I am feeling! I have agreed to everything you have asked me to do, but this-" Amelia was cut off by Aragorn who had been brought to the room by some guards and what seemed like the entirety of the people who habited this place. "You shall not react in such a way, you must respect yourself," the man spoke. There were mutters heard, one was louder than the other it said" and near her king too." Amelias' anger turned to disdain "Do not tell me how to act, Do not tell me what I should and should not do. You have robbed me of my only childhood…" Lia turned away to the astonished faces of the people of Imladris. "Lia we're…" she looked back, sucking up her tears, "what if… what if the only thing you've ever learned from the people you've ever loved was erased in an instant- WITHOUT your consent? How would you react? How would all of you react!" she yelled at everyone who was staring down at her. "I'd probably react like you…" Aragorn and Thranduil muttered. It was too late, though, she was gone.

"There it is. The fire of which Lady Galadriel has foreseen," The King told the council, "and it is terrifying." The council mumbled then spoke, "She cannot stay here, that is for sure, and his nephew said that they would look out for her. She will be sent to their school, will not be given any special treatment; then after we are sure nobody knows where she is, will undergo training. If there are any objections say NAY." Aragorn sighed with relief, and the king smiled. "Will there, at least, be security?" he asked, "No, nothing must change from the usual routine," Lord Elrond declared. "So be it," The King replied, and with that the council was dismissed.

It was now a week after I had been told my past was erased, and oddly I felt freed. Not held back by any of the previous boundaries. After all these years of dreaming of adventure, I had gotten one.
"Time to go princess!" Galan yelled, I opened the door and walked with him down the corridor. "You look pale m'lady, you aren't too nervous, are you?" he teased, "no," I replied dryly. "Here is all you will need, your clothes have been sent to the school and money will be provided on this," He handed me a credit card and shook my hand " Why me?" I asked, "I don't know, princess," I rolled my eyes and smiled. He handed me a vile filled with a cloudy blue liquid, "It's a transportation potion to go to the school, take my hand and I'll escort you." I was going to take off the cap to drink it but Galan stopped me before I could, "What are you doing, do you have a death wish?" he smiled and shook his head, "You thrown it on the ground and walk thru the portal," he said matter of factly. "Oh, what was I thinking…" I sarcastically whispered to myself. He wavered at me to throw it, as soon as he did I threw it on the ground. A cloud of blue smoked danced and twirled until the clear image of a school was visible. "You first," he said. "So do I just, walk in?" I asked, "the quicker the better." We jumped in together and when we landed in front of the school I let go of his hand. It was a very modern high school with a huge botanical garden in the middle. There were two towers that stood tall and connected buildings that was shaped like an oval. Behind the gate in front of us, I could see what I could imagine was the main building. I know this is stupid but it seemed like the whole building had a presence. Anyways, this establishment had a lot of windows and doors and the school was surrounded by a forest and mountains.
"It's beautiful," I said, "It's just a school, don't get all emotional," Galan said with a smirk. My luggage appeared in a puff of glitter. I went to pick them up and heard the cheeriest voice I had heard since my mom after she one a free bouquet of flowers. My mom always loved flowers, when I was younger she would get mad because I would lay in her beautiful peonies.
I only did it because the smelled nice and they were really comfortable. I always thought my life was the worst ever but now I realize it wasn't that bad, at least, the mom part wasn't.
The voice snapped me back to reality, "Welcome students, I hope you all had a wonderful spring break, you all will have the weekend off, as usual, then on Monday will reprise with your new schedules. If you have any problems please see me, or any of the staff at our offices. Thank you ladies and good luck with this trimester!" the girls applauded and yelled, "Thank you !" It kind of surprised me since he was a rather short older gentleman but he seemed to know how to light up a room.
looked at me then waved, " ! ! It so nice to finally meet you!" he said as he shook my hand, "How wonderful! Here is your room number and key, you will see your roommates. You can decorate your room however you please. If you have anything to talk about please see me, or if you want to talk to your godfather we can arrange anything." He said with a bright smile, "Wait, I thought I wasn't getting any special treatment?" Galan and both laughed and looked at me, "this is how we treat all our students, worry not. Oh and I almost forgot, you will be able to choose your electives in a week or two when the teachers will have developed new classes for the girls." I was confused, "the girls?" smiled, "this is an all girls school, we find that when putting young independent women together it makes them have a more familial bond; my nephew runs the all-male school a couple hours away it's the same story there too." I smiled and realized Galan was gone. threw and orb up in the air, "follow that, lass, it will lead you up to your room, I have to warn you though since I have made you late you wouldn't want to cross , she's our supervisor from your wing, and the whole school really. Oh wow look at the time, I really must go! Have a good weekend miss!" He said after he ran back in the building.
I followed the orb thru a long hallway that was impeccably decorated, a perfect mix between modern and rococo. I entered the 3rd dorm wing named "Flora". I looked around the wing, there were several rooms down another hallway in front of me. I looked up and saw a beautiful spiral staircase.
It was about noon and the sun was high up in the sky, I knew this because light shined thru an extravagant tall window. The orb flew up the stairs and I followed it. 317, that's my room. Next to the sign were the names: Brigitte, Tess, Miranda, Ophelia, Stella. All with their personalized colors handwriting, and what I guessed was their favorite thing to do. One slot was free, though, I presumed it was for me.
I walked into the room and was BLOWN AWAY. It was a spacious living area, with anything you could possibly need. On both side of the living room was 2 rooms. "Hello?" I called out while dropping my bags. "She's here, she's here!" a voice called out. 5 gorgeous girls came out of their rooms and greeted me with a hug. "My name is Stella and your rooming with me! I'm sooooooo excited to share a room with you!" the blond-brown eyed girl exclaimed.
They all introduced themselves and talked for a bit before Tess said, "how about we go to town to grab a slice of pizza?" We all agreed and left for London.
