A/N: I'm really sorry it took this long for me to post again :( My muse ran away and writing has been really slow. I'll post as frequently as I can but I can promise you I will eventually finish the story. Thank you all for your patience!

I heard very little for a long while. Sam and I prepared the meal while Legolas and Estel went away in search of Boromir and Frodo. With a loud call I heard Boromir's voice. "It should be mine" He shouted and he seemed quite far off. With my elven ears, I could make out the words quite clearly, but the Hobbits beside me could not.

"What was that shout, Lady Lúthien?" Sam asked. "It sounded like someone in pain."

"I am not sure, Sam," I replied as I stood and moved closer to my bow and sword. I silently strung my bow across my back and took up my sword. It was then I could clearly make out the sound of rustling armor and an army on the move. "Come now, move quickly. Orcs are coming. Draw your swords and be prepared to fight."

I then ran towards the sound of the army prepared to meet them. I could make out the sounds of two sets of Hobbit feet behind me. I turned to see Merry and Pippin but not Sam. I assumed he went off to find Frodo and did not give it much of a second thought. I saw Merry and Pippin take off to the right as I continued my path directly towards the sound of the army.

I was met with a fierce force of orc and found myself alone. I pulled out my sword, prepared to defend myself as best as I could. I was soon able to take out one and then another before it became more difficult. Orcs surrounded me and I was only able to cut down one at a time. I feared for my own life when I saw a glimmer of metal and a fierce battle cry.

"You should not have tried to take all of these foes by yerself, Lassie," GImli called as he continued to brandish his axe.

"Aye, I know," I called back to him as I cut another orc's gut, "but the Hobbits ran off to protect Frodo."

"Ah, what good are the younglings anyway?" He laughed back as another orc head went flying off into the woods surrounding us.

"More help than none," I called back as the band of orc came at us again and we had to focus on the attackers before us. More began to swarm us and I began to worry again of our survival in this battle. I felt an orc blade swipe across my upper arm leaving a mark not fatal but still enough to affect my skills with a sword. My movements slowed slightly, but not enough to not be able to defend myself. I clamped my jaw shut to help ignore the pain and continued to slash at the orcs.

"Lass, we might want to find the others," Gimli called as he caught another orc in its gut. "More are comin' and I do not think the two of us will be able to defeat them on our own." I agreed with the dwarf and we took off running from the orcs and toward a set of ruins on the top of the hill. Before us we saw Legolas and Estel both fighting off orc. Legolas was shooting orcs one by one and was watching them fall at his feet. Estel was struggling a little more. One orc was currently attacked him with its hands rather than its weapon. I pulled out my bow and shot the orc through its skull. It died instantly and Estel looked to me thankful before continuing his attacks.

Before I could join the attack by the ruins, I heard a loud trumpet call; the horn of Gondor. "Boromir," I called to the others as I followed the sound of the horn. Before I found Boromir though, I was attacked by another band of orc. Hoping that the others could find Boromir, I defended myself as best as I could. I was able to shoot a few with my bow before they got too close. I drew my sword and killed a few. Most of the orcs passed by, but a few stopped hoping for an easy kill.

I killed a handful of orcs before one was able to catch me in my other arm and pin me to the ground. He had his foot pinned on my chest and his bow was pointed at my chest. "Say goodbye, swine."

Before he could let the arrow go, an arrow pierced his chest.

"Goodbye, swine," a smooth eleven voice said from behind the fallen orc. Legolas helped me to my feet. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, Legolas,"I replied as I brushed myself off.

"Your arm," He began to reach out to look at it, but I pulled away.

"I am fine, Legolas," I replied as I took off towards the rest of the battle. I had separated myself again and was attacking a few orcs when I heard a cry. I was unable to make out the words but the voices sounded like Merry and Pippin's. As I was now surrounded by few orcs, I ran off towards them.

I soon discovered I was no longer being followed and many of the orcs were dead, gone, or attacking one of the other members of the fellowship. I found myself making my way back towards where we had our camp. Before I could reach it though, I came to a clearing and saw Boromir on his knees in front of an orc. The orc's bow was drawn and aimed at Boromir who already had three arrows stick out of various places on his front. As quickly as I could, I pulled out my own bow and shot the orc through the skull. He fell to the ground dead and didn't move again. I moved swiftly over to Boromir and caught him before he fell to the ground. I could clearly see where the three arrows had hit. All three had hit him in the left side of his front, one in his shoulder, one in his side, and one closer to his center. His breathing was labored and he was slowly beginning to fade.

"Boromir, just hang on," I called out to him as I laid him gently on the ground. "Aragorn will be here soon. He will help you."

"It is too late for that, Lady Raina," I gave him a look of confusion. I didn't know how he knew my true identity. "Dying eyes see all truths, Raina," He whispered his explanation. "I had always wanted to find you. Gondor wanted you to return you to your parents. I wanted to find you to protect you from that. I heard the truth spoken from your parents, of what you meant to them and what they were going to do when they found you. I wanted to protect you."

"Thank you Boromir," I whispered to him. I could hear footsteps coming towards us.

"And do not worry, Raina," He whispered with his few last breaths, "I will take this secret with me to my grave."

I could only nod my response this time. Tears began to overwhelm me and I found it impossible to speak. I felt a hand on my back and I looked up to see Estel. I backed away as Estel took my place and began to speak to Boromir. I made my way over to where Legolas and Gimli both stood in shock as together we witnessed Boromir take his finally breaths and die.

I found it impossible to hold back tears as I watched the man fall. I small whimper escaped my lips as I turned away from the sight with tears slowly falling from my eyes. I lightly felt a few fingers under my chin lifting my head and forcing me to look into the eyes of Legolas. Seeing my tears worried him and he pulled me into a tight embrace against his chest to comfort me. Instead of pulling away embarrassed for being treated like this in front of others as I usually would, I fell into the embrace and let my tears flow freely as Legolas lightly stroked my hair.
