I hope that you guys enjoy this next chapter. Without further ado Chapter 2. ENJOY!
Chapter 2
Rin awoke in a place that she didn't know. She sat up and looked around. Her eyes widened when she saw Lady Galadriel. She looked so much like Cate Blanchett that it wasn't even funny. she jumped back. "Who the hell are you and where the fuck am I?" She demanded in a question. Granted if she was indeed in front of Lady Galadriel in Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit that meant that she had fallen into some kind of wonderland.
"My dear girl, you already know who I am." She said in a kind tone of voice. It was soft and sweet and warmed the heart of anyone who would hear the voice.
She knew that she was not going to hurt me. She knew from the books that she had read and the movies that Lady Galadriel was a woman who would not harm someone else. "What am I doing here?" She asked her brows furrowed in confusion.
Lady Galadriel smiled at her with a smile that was kind and motherly. She walked towards her. "My dear child you belong here."
She shook her head. "No, this is a fairytale… well a book anyway. It isn't real." She said she knew her facts. There was no way that this was real.
"My dear girl, I brought you here." She said looking at her. "You belong in this world yet you do not remember it."
She was confused. She was from this world? Could that have been the reason why she didn't feel like she belonged in the world that she was in, to begin with? Now she was here and this was where she belonged. "But…. I don't understand."
Lady Galadriel smiled at her. "I am sure you don't. But soon enough you will." She clapped her hands together. "Now, we must get you into proper clothes fitting of what you are."
"What am I?" She asked softly, as she watched Lady Galadriel bringing her black clothing to wear.
"A Dunedain." She said as she handed her the black clothing.
Her eyes widened. She was like Aragorn. This was a turn in her life. This meant that she was most likely a princess, but she was to live a life on a dangerous path. That didn't bother her. At least not at that moment. She took the clothing from Lady Galadriel and an elleth came into the room.
"Grandmother… I am here to help Rin into her clothes." She said with a soft smile.
Rin was surprised. It was Arwen. This was something that she was not expecting in the least bit.
Lady Galadriel looked at Rin. "I am sure you know my granddaughter, Arwen. She will be helping you into your clothes and I will be back to tell you what you will need to do my dear."
Rin nodded her head knowing that it was very much true that Lady Galadriel was going to tell her why she was here in this world. She watched her leave and now she was with Arwen.
Arwen changed Rin into a black corset, black tunic top, black breeches, and black boots. She even went as far as fixing Rin's red-brown hair. She then pulled out a ring from a bag that she had carried with her. "I am sure that you would want this." She said holding out a ring that looked like the one that Aragorn had worn during Lord of the Rings.
"I can't take this," Rin said softly. She was certain that Aragorn was to have this.
She placed it into Rin's hand. "It is yours," Arwen said softly, smiling at her. "The stones are meant for the lady of the Rangers of the North. The color is blue for the stones. The future king would wear the one that has green." She explained to Rin.
Rin ran her finger lightly over the ring. She slipped it onto her right ring finger. The cool metal was welcoming and she knew that it belonged there all along.
"Is she ready?" Lady Galadriel asked coming back into the room,
Arwen bowed her head and left the room. She had done the job that she was supposed to do.
Lady Galadriel smiled when she saw the ring that was on Rin's finger. "It suits you."
Rin looked at Lady Galadriel.
"Come walk with me." She said as she turned. She was truly a beauty. Her granddaughter was almost like a splitting image, but only with darker hair.
Rin could never compete with them in the beauty department. She began to walk with her.
"I know that you are still confused about why you are here. I would expect that. You are to travel to Bree."
"My lady?" Rin asked, confused. "Why must I travel to Bree?"
"You will seek out Mithrandir."
"Gandalf the Gray?"
Lady Galadriel looked at Rin and nodded her head. "Yes, he will explain everything to you." She stopped in her tracks and turned towards her. She placed her hand on Rin's black-clad shoulder. "Your destiny is here. You will find out that your path will not be an easy one."
Rin bit the inside of my lip. She could only hope that she was not sending me on a quest with thirteen dwarves, a hobbit, and Gandalf. It would only end in a path that was deadly for three of them.
"You will be leaving at first light. You have three months to get there." She told Rin.
Three months was not a lot of time which meant that if Rin was to run into problems she would be in danger of not making it there on time. She nodded her head. "And weapons?"
"Haldir will be bringing them to you tonight. I am sure that you are efficient with a bow and arrows and swords."
Rin nodded her head.
She smiled. "I knew that you would be able to take to those even though you were in a world that was not your own." She ran her fingers lightly through Rin's red-brown hair. "May the evening star be with you and your quest."
