Hey, so I know it's been awhile, what with the whole fanfiction not working! But now it does yay!
Disclaimer: I only own the LOTR, if I did would I be on Fanfiction right now?
Chapter- The beacons
Only five days have passed since Gandalf and Merry had left. My nerves were on high alert, any slight noise could set me off. Ryan said I had PTSD, I kinda had to agree with him. Aragorn then launched into a lecture that woman shouldn't always fight in a war and Ryan debated him about the fact that PTSD could actually effect both sexes. Then we had to explain what PTSD actually was and that it wasn't normal stress. Then Aragorn actually said that Ryan and I could be right.
I spotted Alpha and trotted up to him,"Alpha? May we talk? I have never really gotten to know you, or anything about the Ancient Ones, I would love to find out now."
Alpha gave me a big smile, I'll admit, seeing a war-scarred man with black hair and red eyes is a bit intimidating. But he only chuckled and nodded,"Of course, my dear, follow me. I shall give you a bit of a crash course in Ancient Ones."
So we started walking around camp on patrol,"You see back in the beginning days of Middle Earths, our ancestors sailed here from the undying lands, I know this may be a little strange. But we did not want to be stuck there. So we came here. But many of our secrets stay there. Like how to find our true names..."
"True names," I echoed.
Alpha nodded,"Yes, you see everything that lives has a true name on this earth, one tat could bind them with magic. It's very powerful and if your enemy could find out yours you would be in deep trouble."
"Do you know yours?"
Alpha shook his head,"No my dear. But the legends say that if an Ancient one was to find there True Name they would be able to age like the elves and be immortal."
"Immortal huh..." my mind whirled. If I could fine mine..."
Alpha knew what I was thinking,"Dusky..." he raised his eyebrow and dragged out my name.
I smiled,"I was just thinking! Can you tell me anything else?"
Alpha chuckled,"My dear we have not even made one scratch on the surface of Ancient Ones!"
I was walking towards the hall after the whole day of listening to Alpha speak pf the Ancient Ones. I spotted Aragorn headed my way- and coming in hot. I followed him into the hall,"The beacons of Minas Tirith," he yelled and everyone turned to him, well us since i was standing bext to him in wolf form,"The beacons are lit!"
"That means Gondor calls for aid," I smiled.
There was a slight hesitation before Théoden said,"And Rohan will answer! Muster the Rohirrim," Éomer bowed to him and left. The bell rang out to gather the Rohirrim together.
Alpha approached me,"Dusky, I would like you to get ready and then meet me at the stables."
I nodded,"Of course," I spotted Legolas looking in our direction, was he worried? I shook my head and went to go get in my armor.
Sorry it was soo short I promise it'll be longer - Next time!
