CH:2- Lothlorien

This could not be real and not mention Isabela was very much aware and had heard about Lothlorien before and only knew it was a part of world written in the books and later revealed in the movies as well. To that she knew she was wrong for she was in the north borders of the Golden Woods and the place was so real not to try to mention it was the same when it came to the elves as especially an elf that was there before her watching her with a curiosity and wondered what was she thinking on in that awkward moment?

"This could not be real!" She said again to herself than the words were for him at the moment. " I am sure I am dreaming this."

Haldir chuckled back quietly on this statement and was drawn to her as well for she was someone that he had not seen before and thank to Valar for Rumil to find her before the nightfall for the woods were dangerous to wander around in the nightfall and it was not safe place to be.

"I am sure you will get used to this, but this is not a dream I cam assure you." Haldir replied back and raised himself from the ground and offered his hand to her. " Come."

Other two elves stopped talking instantly and waited for an order and for a moment Isabela was hesitated but then took his hand and Haldir rose her up from a ground as she picked up her backpack then one thing that she had taken with her from the world that she had came from.

"For now she is going to remain with us." Haldir replied back and Rumil frowned on this statement.

"We barely know her." He protested back in an elvish tongue that was a bit an insult to Isabela for she did not know what he was saying.

"That is it not for you to decide." Haldir replied back on a same tongue.

"I won't be a baby-sitter to some lost maiden." Rumli replied in a stubborn kind of tone.

"Haldir?" Orophin spoke but march warden did not hear him.

"I have heard that." Haldir faced his brother again, but Orophin kept his eyes on a girl and noticed that she was gone out off the sight.

"Haldr!" He called for an attention to his brother. "She is gone."

Turning around Haldir noticed that the girl was nowhere to be seen and he frowned fro he had to find her before the night fall for the woods were not a safe place to wander around on her own especially in the night. Other much bigger problem was to how to find her when he did not know her name to begin with?

Isabela kept running and cursed herself for ending in this place that she never thought would exist and was real. She barely give any attention where she was going and will when she exhausted she fell on the ground under one of the tall tree she knew she was completely alone and lost. The day slipped into the night and with that the cold struck down and the jacket she was wearing did very little to to protect her or even give her a warmth and Isabela shivered from cold and she was starving for the last time she had eaten was before she went to the bed and that was last night. Well at least she would be dead in the morning and that thought did not left her mind at all.

To find her was easy and as the sun faded away from the sight the cold come and that was not a good thing at all. Yet, Haldir was not giving up and he had to find her before it was too late. He had already sent Orophin back to their talan to make sure that the hot tea was ready when he returned with her and bring her back so he could keep her warm form the cold. Few hours later he had found her as the same location where her track stopped and picked her up from the ground only to notice how cold she was which was not good a sign at all which meant he had to hurry back as fast as he could to take her to talan to keep her warm in the order to make sure that she could stay alive. The cold was hard to bear and when she felt the touch of warmth near her she snuggled closer to Haldir seeking the warmth as he carrie her back to talan and when they arrived he took her directly to his room where he place her on the bed removing her shoes and jacket and wrapping her quickly in the blankets and making sure that she was warm enough. With nothing else to do Haldir took a seat on a chair near the bed and waited for her to wake up and he knew this was going to be one of the long nights ahead in order to be sure that she was alright he knew he had to deal with the sign of the fever that she surely had picked up being exposed to such cold winter wind.
