Writewraiths in Middle Earth

[Silverstripe]

Great, now she thinks I'm like Lubyla!

I followed Faith, trying to explain.

<Faith, wait! I'm not like Lubyla, okay?! Cyrell says I'm from Middle Earth, I don't know what he means yet!>

[Fred Baggins]

"I don't care. I DON'T CARE! Need it backwards? Care Don't I! It doesn't matter anymore. IT DOESN'T MATTER! I'm leaving now! I know how to get back! I'm going back now! The rest of you have fun, I have a life, and I'm going back to it! Better yet, I'm going to find a better life, I going to find my parents! Have fun! I hope you enjoy yourself!"

Kathie was shocked, she had never heard Faith upset before. What had upset her? She had also never heard of Faith talking about finding her parents.

[Silverstripe]

Normally, I'm very even tempered, and I hardly ever get mad at my friends. But this time I was furious. I hadn't done anything to Faith, and she was yelling at me?! I was so upset that I didn't even notice she'd spoken aloud.

Alasse heard Belladona scream at Calien, but she sounded more like a frightened child than the great Belladona Gamgee of the Night Sky. Still, she rushed to Calien's side to make sure she was all right. She saw Belladona marching off angrily, in a way that would have looked ridiculous with any other hobbit, though with Belladona it was actually intimidating. <Belladona Gamgee! What has happened to upset you so?>

ooc: Please listen to Alasse for a while. :)

[Fred Baggins]

I turned around. "Bell-? O. I-I just need to be alone I guess. I...miss my...cousin." It was a lame excuse, esspecially since most folks didn't even know about Bell's cousin. But..I just couldn't tke it! I couldn't stand losing another friend!After all I had lost! First my house, then my sisters, then my parents dissapeared, then I had to move from Ireland to America, and lost my best friend, my other friends, and basically life as I knew it! I couldn't take it anymore!

[Silverstripe]

I realized that Faith needed a little time, and turned to Alasse.

<You know what Cyrell means, don't you?> I asked, feeling amgry with all of Middle Earth, <I know you do. Everyone around here seems to know, except me! Please, tell me, I have to know, I can't take NOT knowing anymore!> A tear trickled down my cheek.

Alasse smiled, a sad little smile. <You are the Heir of the heir, born of a child of the dark.>

[Ms. Undomial]

ooc: I like it Silver! sounds like what I said to you. :D sort of.

[Fred Baggins]

I sat down against a tree trunk. Merry crept up behind me, in time to see me blubber once again. Something tottaly out of the blue happened then. He spoke to me. <Faith. Yes, I know your real name. I can tell the difference between my creator and my best friend. Faith, listen to me. I know what haunts you. You worry about being left alone. You worry that everyone will just "disappear" That's part of the reason you made so many of us characters. Your angel asked me to speak to you, for she has a hard time exicting in this world. Faith, she told me that you will never be alone, no matter what. She also told me...though she said to wait till later, she told me that there is no way out. Not for you anyway. She also said that-your-your-well, your parents are allright, and you will see them again...someday.>

[Silverstripe]

ooc: Well, that was the point -- that Kathie will recognize it.:)

<I've heard something like that before, in an RPG. Wait! You mean I'm Arwen's granddaughter?!>

<Yes. Calien...> (I felt a shiver run down my spine when she said that name) <Calien, my daughter and only child.>

I ran up and hugged Alasse, startling Faith.

<We did not know how to tell you> said Alasse. <Or if you would understand. Now that you know, you must get back to your own body. Losillewen has Nenya, Nenya will bring you back to normal.>

<But Losillewen is...>

<Don't worry. I sense that Rose can help.>

[Fred Baggins]

I wiped my tears, unable to belive what I had just heard. How could this possibly be? I stared at Kathie as she hugged Alasse. Probably sisters or something. Well mine where dead, and from what I understood, probably my parents to. I had nothing.

[Ms. Undomial]

ooc: I REALLY like it Silverstripe!!! not quite how I would have said it, but it was REALLY good!! please make somthing happen, that I can reply to.

[Ms. Undomial]

ooc: oops. accedentily posted twice,..

[Silverstripe]

As my mother and I walked back to find Rose, she told me a little of my history.

<You were not yet of age (nor are you of age now), when we discovered the other world. Few of us knew about it, and those who did were mostly elves, though there were a few men and dwarves who knew, and one hobbit: Primrose Brandybuck, who had become a good friend of my daughter. She, and the elf Lubyla, were chosen to journey to this new land. You, Calien, found out where they were going, and according to Primrose, went to see your friends off. But you accidently got transported wth them, and we couldn't get our travelers back... until now. While you were there, Lubyla lost many of her memories, and you ... lost all knowledge of who you were. More than this, I will not tell you, for you will remember it soon enough, anyway.>

Then we spotted Rose in the distance, and walked over to her.

<Tell her. She will be surprised, but understand> said my mother, and I knew exactly what she meant.

<Hello, Rose. Have you met ... my mother?>

[Fred Baggins]

Merry kept stuttering, what about, I could not tell. I saw Lubyla nearby, muttering something. A pain corsed through my body, a bitter pain. I blacked out. When I woke up again, I was looking AT Bell. I didn't understand. I was Bell, or had been anyway. But no, now I was a different hobbit, clothed in gold robes. I ran to a nearby lake, and looked at the clear reflection. I wasn't Bell...or any other character I had created, or thought of creating. In fact...I looked a lot like a younger version of that other hobbit I had run into earler! Could it be...had that been...did that mean...?

[zavron]

ooc: Am I still with you lot?

[Fred Baggins]

Yes, Zavron, you always are. Why do you always ask? Anywho, come join the confused unhappy lot once again. Make something happen. I'm bored.

[zavron]

ooc: oky doke!

ic:
I walked for awhile behind the others, suddenly the bush beside me rustled. The others did not here it. I walked over to the bush, suddenly A Huge black-Warg jumped out grabbed me and (Is it fred or fran?) and jumped back into the bushes. On the other side of the bushes was a huge crack in the ground. With an enormous bound the Warg jumped right into it, taking us along for the ride. Suddenly a whistling sound reached my ear it became louder. Ahead there was a little outcropping rock, there was nothing I could do. My headcame crashing into it and I remembered no more of the journey down the crack.

[Fred Baggins]

ooc: Faith. She's not in Bell's body anymore if anyone wonders.

ic: The warg kept taking us down further and further. Then, the bottom. "Wake up Dave, please wake up." When shouting didn't work I tried shaking, but got a terrible shock, though touching him did not affect me as I thought it would. "Please wake up Dave!" I turned to the warg. "Why have you brought us here?"

[zavron]

The warg was gone, all that was left was darkness, and shadows.

[Fred Baggins]

I instinctivly reached up before relizing, to late, that I was no longer Fran, and no longer had the Phial. I pulled off my pack and rummaged through it, hoping to find something, anything to help. But I didn't have anything. Just a pad of paper, my pencils, and a few other oddments. What can I do now? Maybe Dave would be able to think of something, but he was knocked cold. We had droped to far, and where so far down, there was no light reaching us. So it would be usless trying to all for help.

[Ms. Undomial]

<Your mother??> I said, very suprised. <You are Calien? >

[Silverstripe]

I stared at Rose.

<How did you know Alasse's daughter was Calien? I've never written about myself!? Anyway, yes, I am Calien, and you have to use Nenya to restore me to my own body, quick!>

[Ms. Undomial]

<simple deduction! um.... is there a instruction booklet?> I Laughed at the expression on Calien's face at my remark.

[Silverstripe]

<Simply try to use the ring. You will know what to do; in that, I know you are like Losillewen.>

<Yes, but how did you know my name was Calien? Are you starting to have Losillewen's memories?> I asked, somewhat worried.

[Ms. Undomial]

<on the moot, you were silverstripe, and on one PM you mentioned the Name Calien, you did not use it, and now, by simple deduction, I found out that Calien was your name! when do you want me to use the ring?>

[Silverstripe]

<Now.>

[Ms. Undomial]

ooc: I will reply in the morning; I have to think up something good to happen. :D :rolleyes:

[Lubyla]

Lubyla walked off, seeing that the spell had worked, and ran into Starletta.

O, sorry, I seem to have lost myself, looking for...welll, its not important

*bends her bow at Starletta* Who are you, and what is your bussiness, trying to mess up my plans?

I-i'm Starletta of Rohan, I ment not to bump into you, it was just...well...I met a few hobbits, who have seemed to run off, and I was looking for them, trying to finish my past, though now that they are gone, that is not posible.

*They stood in front of the bush where Dave and Faith had been taken captive...er...whatever, and as she said this, Starletta started to cry silent tears, that seemed to make their way down to Faith and Dave, wiith shimmering light.*

[Ms. Undomial]

I put on Nenya and walked over to Calien. I put my hands on her temples and it seemed like the worled began to revolve around us. it was a great struggle for the both of us, but finally she and I overcame it. I brought my hands off her head, and she was once again Calien.

ooc: I hope you like it Silverstripe!

[Silverstripe]

ooc: Thank you, Ms. Undomial! That will do nicely.:)

ic: I opened my eyes, and found myself looking at everything in a new light; it was as if I had finally come home after a long and tiring journey. I was beginning to remember my past, though only bits and pieces of it -- like who the fox I had met before had REALLY been (Terwell, not Cyrell), or the name of my cousins, the son and daughters of my mother's brother.

I glanced at my mother and Losillewen ... er, Rose. I was somewhat taller than my mother, probably a little over six feet tall, though nowhere near as tall as Losillewen.

Alasse smiled fondly at her black-haired, gray-eyed daughter. <Thank you, Rose. Now we must rejoin the others.>

[Ms. Undomial]

<Your welcome. lets go.>

[Silverstripe]

Losillewen/Rose sped off, and my mother and I followed her. I was anxious to see Terwell again; now that I could remember my best friend, I longed to speak with him again. There were others, too, that I desired to see, but first, I wanted to reunite with my father and my best friend.

[Ms. Undomial]

I went up to Calien and said: <Are you getting your memory back?>

[Silverstripe]

<Yes. There are many people I long to see and speak to again, two above any others. And I know why my mother wanted you to use Nenya right away...>

I looked into her mind, knowing she would not object.

<So do you! How did you know that Primrose and I would have died? You are beginning to have some of Losillewen's memories now, are you not?>

I had discovered, through regained memory, what Terwell meant when he said that "Primrose shouldn't be here," she was still in her own body, and two minds couldn't occupy the same space for long.

[Lubyla]

ooc: Ho hum, not much I can do, untill Faith gets back.

[Fred Baggins]

I looked around, though I could see nothing. I reached up to my neaklace, (A cheap immitaion of the One Ring, I got off a bookmark.) and fingered it nervously, a habit of mine, and it seemed as though I felt tears brush against my hand.

[Lubyla]

*sits near bush, fingering a butterfly necklace.* It was given to me by her.

Who?

The one I seek.

*Getting irritated* And who is THAT????

*sighs.* I do not know.

[Fred Baggins]

From far above I heard voices. Maybe if I shouted loud enough they would hear me! "HELLO! HELLO UP THERE! CAN YOU HELP ME!?"

[Lubyla]

NO!!!*she screamed* NOT AGAIN!!!!!

WHAT again?

Its...its... The voices of the past!!! That is how her voice sounded, and it always haunts me. Could you at least hear it?

[Fred Baggins]

ooc:*rolls eyes*

ic:"HELLO UP THERE! CAN YOU HELP ME! I"M STUCK DOWN HERE WITH ZAVRON!"

[Lubyla]

Perhaps I should go after it.*steps through the bushes and falls down into the pit with the other two.*

[Fred Baggins]

ic:*rolls her eyes* Great now you're stuck down here to! There must have been someone else up there, if there not stupid enough to fall in.

[Lubyla]

*dusts herself off* Well, there is one other, but I doubt she shall help us. Are you the one who I search for? The friend of the past I have lost?

[Fred Baggins]

I-I'm not quite sure what you mean? I have had many friends, but none of them Women of Rohan...*Dave moved slightly*

[Lubyla]

I was not always from Rohan, but lets save that untill we are rescued.

[Fred Baggins]

"Right, now...FOR THE LAST TIME HELP!!!!!

[Lubyla]

FINE IMPATIONT ONE!!!!!!!!!*sends an arrow tied to a string down*

[Fred Baggins]

"THANKYOU!" Grabs the arrow as it almost hits her, and ties one end around Dave.PULL THIS ONE UP FIRST! HE"S UNCONCIOUS!

[Lubyla]

Pull up? Who said I'd do that? you must climb!

[Fred Baggins]

HE'S UNCONSIOUS YOU MUST PULL HIM UP!

[Lubyla]

Fine, just dont shout at me anymore, I can hear you quite clearly.

[Silverstripe]

Rose, my mother, and I arrived back at the place the Writewraiths had originally been, only to find the everyone but Rhia had left.

"Hey, Rhia, come with us. We need to find the others!"

They weren't hard to locate. A voice that sounded like Faith's was screaming so loudly I thought, at first, that she was being killed.

"Lubyla! What's going on? What happened to, um, Fran?"

[Fred Baggins]

O...Sorry about that. *She shares a look with Star, and they both start laughing very hard.*

[Lubyla]

She, Zavron, and the girl fell in to this hole, and I am trying to get them out, wll you help?

[Silverstripe]

I merely nodded, and Rose muttered something I couldn't quite make out.

"We will help. But how did they get down there?"

[Fred Baggins]

*In the dark she blushes a little* Well, actually Zav and I didn't fall, we where attacked and forced down here. *She ignores the fact that Kathie is there. Instead she helps Star climb the rope, and climbed up herself. When she got up she noticed the others looking strangly at her, and back down the hole. One of them asked, "Is Fran still down there?"
I Asked what they ment, then relized...again, that I was no longer Belladona. "No, she was never down there..."

[Lubyla]

*blinks at the light, and fiddles wit ha necklace. It is a buterfly, rimmed with gold and inside it is silver. from the bottom, two "tails" hang* Thank you for getting us out.

[Silverstripe]

I gave Faith a quizzical look, but instead of explaining as she usually would, she simply ignored me.

I shrugged. Sure, I was sad that Faith wasn't speaking to me, but to quarrel at such a time would be petty and useless, and I knew any conversation we held now would become an argument.
"You were attacked?!"

[Lubyla]

*Begins to walk off*

[Fred Baggins]

"Wait Star-Starletta. Where did you get that neacklace. I know that neacklace!" I practically threw myself of Starletta, grabbing at the neacklace. Sure enough when I held on to it the from changed, so slightly, into the form of a cat! "STAR! STARLETTA! YOU"RE, YOU"RE! EEEEEE!"

[Lubyla]

*Frightendly looks at her* I got it from the one I seek

Here we go again. Fran...er...Faith, dont mind her, she shall not tell you anymore than that.

[Silverstripe]

<Hello, Calien.> That voice could only belong to one creature: Terwell! I looked down, and sure enough, the young fox was there. At that point I heard Faith scream something to Starletta, but I barely paid any attention, for this was my first true reunion with my best friend in many years.

"Terwell!" I stooped down and hugged him, something he would allow only me to do.

<You recognize me, then?> He sounded pleased. <Welcome home.>

We have a mindlink, a mindlink like Primrose and Cyrell's, yet unlike theirs, for ours has been around nearly since my birth. I could remember my mother's stories of how she had had to flee while pregnant with me, and how she had, through the actions of Primrose Brandybuck, been attended at my birth by that hobbit and a small company of foxes. And how Terwell was born only a little later than I. Our natural mindlink meant that rather than one of us dying when the other did, if one of us would ordinarilly survive at any given time, we both could. (In other words, to kill one of us, you must kill both of us.)

[Fred Baggins]

"The one you seek is..." I Glanced around. "Faith. Faith Lowe. Your best friend. Don't you remember at least that for only one person would it become a cat. For one person, Faith Lowe. Me. Star...don't you remember?" O, Star, what has happened, has even my best friend from so long ago, who promised not to forget me, forgotten me?

[Lubyla]

It has been long, so I remember only that the one I seek is...a hobbit among men. We met in a grove of trees, and we talked the night through.

[Fred Baggins]

"Not really a grove of trees...in fact it was more like The Wise. And though I may have acted a lot like a hobbit I was a person. A human girl." I reached in my pack and pulled out a notebook. I knew that Kathie recognized it, though I had never shown it's contents to her, nor showed it to her at all. But I opened it up and showed it to Star, the first page where lay the handwriting of a seven-year old.'to never forget me by.' and after with flowing script. 'A friend is the strongest link...'

[Silverstripe]

<I'm glad to be back, Terwell. I missed you...>

The memories that were returning to me were not all pleasant, however. Gently, I touched a thin scar that lay just over my heart, remembering how the Link had saved my life that time.

I turned to Lubyla and asked quietly, "did you know?"

[Lubyla]

This is too much! I shall be at the camp.

You are the one I seek, Faith. We met in the Wise, as we called it, and always played pretend.

[Silverstripe]

<Lubyla's right, we should go back to camp,> said my mother.

I sighed and followed Lubyla back to camp, feeling very sad. When Faith had opened that notebook, it made me realize how very close, indeed, I had come to forgetting about her. And Faith ... didn't need me anymore, she didn't want to be my friend now. I would let her and Star have some time alone.

[Fred Baggins]

<Yes, you where an elf, and I was a hobbit! O Star! That is your real name remember? Starlight Adams, from New Zeland!> "Kath-" I stoped. She wasn't Kathie. I wasn't Faith, or at least not physically, in fact, I belive there had never been a Faith, except for Faith the hobbit! Not Faith Lowe...Faith Took, like in the old days. <Faith Took...that's who I really am, I guess, for I'm not a person anymore. I'm a hobbit.> "Kathie-o, dear, what's her name? Kathie please, come here? I-I want you to meet an old friend of mine..."

[Silverstripe]

I had lagged behind my mother and Lubyla a little, hoping, I think, that exactly what happened next did. Faith called me back, and I returned, popping in from out of nowhere as I often did, startling my friend and Starletta.

"An old friend?"

My heart leapt. Was Faith from Middle Earth too? If so, maybe she wouldn't blame me for being from ME now!

[Fred Baggins]

"This is Star, well Starlight actually! She's the one I told you-er...Kathie about... my friend from Ireland! Kathie...Er...I mean Calien...I guess I'm sorry...about getting mad that is. You're still my best friend...if that's ok? Both of you are...even if Star doesn't relly remember a whole lot of me!"

[Silverstripe]

I smiled. "Yes, we can still be best friends."

And then, though I tried to stop them, my eyes filled with silent tears. "I'm sorry, Faith and Star; I just realized I'm never going to see my-my old family again. And we," I gulped. "really do have our own tasks to do. Not like some of the others, I think. The other Writewraiths, the ones that don't belong here...I hope they get home."

I could sense, now, that Faith actually DID belong in Middle Earth. So, it seemed, did Starletta.

"I'm glad that we won't be alone. But all of us Writewraiths have to go home, whether that's here or the other world."

[Fred Baggins]

"Of course you're going to miss your parents, and you sibs, it going to hurt, a lot. It always will." Holds up the notebook and rolls her eyes a little "Ask the book. And even though, eventually, you might be able to go a whole day without thinking of them, it'll always hurt. And your going to have things to do here for sure! And Starletta to probably!" I knew at the time, that I wold never go back home...not really, but I refused to accept it. I refused to accept a lot of things back then...still do. I started humming, a song from a play I had been working on before we left, "South Pacific" and a thought came to me. "O my gosh! I have to get back before the performance! It's next week!"

[Silverstripe]

I smiled at me. "Yes, there will be plenty for us to do here. ALL of us, even those who eventually leave. Or why were we all called here?"

[Fred Baggins]

"Lubyla called us." I slapped my hand over my big fat mouth, before I told any more than I was supposed to. We all headed back, but I stayed behind. There was something in the bushes. I slowly bent down and picked up a rock, which fit my hand perfectly. I walked into the bushes, rock in hand, and bent down, to see a black warg there, the same one that had pushed Dave and I into the hole. He had a big gash on his head, and had passed out. I tore off a bit of my dress, and tore that in two. One I used to mop up the blood, the other I set aside. Looking around I found a weed, and brused a leaf, holding it under the warg's nose. It worked as a smelling salt, and he jumped up surprised, snarling at me."Hush," I told him, "I'm going to help you." He lay down and set his head on my lap as though he understood. The rest of the weed I placed on the gash, and he winced, snarling a little, then I took the other half of the piece I tore off, and used it as a bandage. "There. It'l come off on it's own when it's ready I suppose." I sat back and looked at him. I could tell he was young, but he looked so beat up. His left hind leg was gone, and a bite was taken out of his right ear. His black fur was matted and bloody. "I wish I could do more to help you." He looked up at me, with those eyes, and they seemed to see'Me too.'
I got up, and walked back out, running to catch up with the rest.

[Lubyla]

*Looks around, getting confused a bit.* Well, that may be true Faith, but who has told you that? Did she?

[Silverstripe]

<Calien, the warg...let me try to speak with him. I may be able to find out what happened.>

<Are you sure?>

<I think it's something important! What if they know you're here?>

I shuddered. I had just remembered...Them. <Speak.> But I pulled out my bow, ready to shoot the warg if he tried to harm Terwell.

[Lubyla]

*Sits in the grass, now alone and confused.* Why is it that I am always left behind?

[Silverstripe]

Alasse walked back to find her daughter, and noticed that she and Terwell were busy trying to speak to a warg. Alasse smiled. Now, that was more like the Calien she had known! Then she noticed a young, confused woman sitting alone in the grass. "Hello. I am Alasse. Who are you?"

[Lubyla]

I am Starletta...I think, though you may call me Star, as does everyone else. I believe I have seen you before. Have you been in Rohan recently?

[Silverstripe]

"Rohan..." Alasse laughed, remembering. "Yes, Rohan, and, some say, nearly every place on Middle Earth! Are you from Rohan, then?"

[Lubyla]

Yes, I am a trainer of the horses.I only own three myself, but they are very good horses. I come from a very well known family for our horses.Why, my mother even trained...well, tried to train Lubyla's horse, Ithilsila.

[Silverstripe]

Alasse laughed. She knew Lubyla, and had seen Ithilsila. "That she even tried shows her to be one of the best horsewomen in Rohan!"

[Lubyla]

It seemed Ithilsila could not be trained, but took a great liking to Lubyla, though I don't know why. Lubyla doesn't like me very much.

[Silverstripe]

"There are many fine people that Lubyla dislikes, and I do not often know her reasons." There was one group of people that Lubyla always disliked, but surely that had nothing to do with Starletta.

[Lubyla]

Tis true. She does get tempermental, ad judges a bit too quickly. Though I never did anything to her, exept...well, hum...did I?

[Silverstripe]

"What happened, young one? And yes, I agree that my friend is sometimes quick to judge, yet she is one of the greatest of elves."

[Lubyla]

She was in Rohan, doing whatever she does there, problebly getting Ithilsila's food, for she only buys it from my family, and I was told to get it, I came back, accidently picking up the wrong one, and she yelled at me.

[Fred Baggins]

*The warg cowerd. He was not used to being questioned. He wimpered. He did not know the common toungh. Only his own.*

I was still with him. I did not know what was going on, but I knew an arrow was being pulled on him. "Relax! He's not going to hurt any one."

[Silverstripe]

I relaxed a little, putting the bow at my side, but remained ready to kill the warg if he attacked Terwell.

"Why did you attack?" asked Terwell in the warg tongue, which he had learned from Cyrell. <I know you can understand me now.>

[Fred Baggins]

ooc:I wanna adopt a gremlen! How?

ic: *Wimpers, and says quietly* "I myself was attacked. I did not mean to attack them, but to get away. I mearly ran into them..."

[Silverstripe]

ooc: See the "Defense Force" or "When I take over the world" threads.:D

ic: <I believe you. What attacked you? And what is your name?>

I could understand what Terwell and the warg were saying, but most wargs were more comfortable around four-leggers than two-leggers, like me.

[Lubyla]

I started to get back up, and started walking away, twards where Lubyla and the rest went.

[Lubyla]

*mummbles a bit to self* Why am I going over here? Lubyla doesn't even like me.I dont even know wh.*passes the group around the warg*

[Fred Baggins]

*Backs away.* I was attacked by...by...my name is called "Danger".

[Lubyla]

*gets backed into by a warg and falls down*

[Silverstripe]

I was trying not to frighten the warg, but I couldn't resist. <WHAT?! You're Danger?!? But how?>

[Fred Baggins]

*The warg cowered even more, and bumped into Starletta.* "I-I don't know what you're talking about...please, may Igo?

I could tell he was worried and scared. I ran to him and hugged him. I glared and glared at Terwell and Calien. "Why are you frightening him? What is wrong?"

[Silverstripe]

<He says his name is Danger. Don't you remember Danger?!> And as I said that, the warg appeared to grow bigger...

[Fred Baggins]

"Danger? But Danger is a person, not a warg!" He began to grow, a thing which ment to my characters that they where to be more feared.

Yes, my name is Danger! And yes Faith, I am the one who seeks the Sun and the Moon.

"I-But you can't be...you where never a warg..."

Faith, here all characters have there own image, and there own life. We are not compleatly controlled by our authors. None of us are. I have the ability to change into a warg. And now, I have the ability to destroy Middle-Earth. But of course, that's not happening anytime soon. For the elf has ruined my plans.

I didn't understand. Danger wasn't like this at all... "If you are Danger..." I don't know what was happening to me, but I began to feel a type of power grow in me. "...then you have been foolish. In order to keep you out of trouble, I now take you into my power. You will no longer be able to leave my side." Then, I felt a type of chain, an invisible chain, connect the warg to me, but before it was compleatly connected, he tried to run away. The chain still connected, but I felt somehow, that the Sun and the moon, where not as safe as they should be...

[Silverstripe]

"He told me his name. He didn't want to tell me, but it was like he had to. Why?" I muttered, not speaking to anyone in particular. But Faith heard anyway.

[Fred Baggins]

"He was reluctant because he is the one who seeks the Sun and the Moon. He never likes to reveal his name, which is why no one knows his real name. He felt he had to, because-well if I'm correct, because he, they one who could quite possibly be the most evil creature in all Middle-Earth, always has to answer a question, if it is dirrected to him. Of course it doesn't have to be the correct answer, but he has to answer. Although...he did not answer why he attacked Zavron and I. 'Danger' why?"

*The warg's size once again shrank.* "I think you know! Why do I have to tell you?'

"Not me. Tell her."

"I think the answer is obvious enough. To-to eliminater her of course. The fact that I grabed her friend ment nothing."

[Silverstripe]

ooc: I'm a little confused. Is the warg talking about Calien or Awartha?

[Fred Baggins]

ooc: Opps, sorry, he's talking To Calien, ABOUT Faith.

[Silverstripe]

"You wanted to kill her? Why? And I assure you, I will know if you're lying." I was surprised to remember that my statement was true.

[Fred Baggins]

*The warg laughed* "Really? You have not yet caught the lies I have told you. But I will tell you anyway. I want to kill her, because if it wheren't for her, then I'd have those Stupid gems by now! And with her gone, I'd get them.

"Foolish creature! Do you not yet know, that you can not defeat me?" I felt the power growing again. What was this? It felt so strange... "Now, Calien, no more questions! And as for you 'Danger' I now know, not to let you out of my sight, and will take every precaution to make sure you aren't trouble. Already there is no possible way that you can leave my side! For we are connected, with an ivisible chain, unbreakable, and held together with the greatest magic."

[Silverstripe]

I was a little annoyed at Faith's commanding me not to ask anymore questions, but decided the instructions were for the best. Then the warg faced me with something like a smirk, letting me know he knew my weaknesses. At the moment I was more vulnerable than usual because not all of my memories had returned. Then I heard a great cry; foxes chanting in their own tongue. This tongue was a very secret thing; only four non-foxes had ever been allowed to learn it. I was honored to be the youngest of those four. As I listened to the foxes, a chill ran down my spine. If 'Danger' had anything to do with this, he was much more powerful than I had first thought.

"Foxes! Foxes! Friends of foxes, come for danger is upon us..."

The chant continued. I shuddered. I knew they weren't talking about 'Danger,' but the foxes only used that call when a great evil was near, and they needed help.

<We've got to go!> cried Terwell, running off in the direction of the foxes. <Terwell! No!> I ran after my friend; as one of the Tarrelin Lorai (friends of foxes), it was my job to help defend Terwell's people.

[Lubyla]

In the mitst of all of this, I just kind of sat and stared, after a while, finally blackingout, as a huge warg stood infront of me. What was happening?

[zavron]

The warg came back into the cave.

[Fred Baggins]

ooc: forgot one thing Zavron. He's attached to me. The only way he would be in a cave is if I where to. anywho...

ic:*As I heard the fox chant, I felt the power that had been growing in me begin to fade again. The power 'Danger had had faded. He was calming again."Good," I thought. "no, he won't bother anyone else...not for a LOOOOOONG time anyway."

[Silverstripe]

ooc: LOL. How would Faith know it was foxes who were chanting? Never mind...

ic:Terwell and I continued to run in the direction of the chants. I heard someone running along behind us, and turned around to see who was following us.

[Fred Baggins]

'Starletta, I'm sorry, you look so confused, and left out.' I thought, then to my surpirse she answered me!I guess I must have spoken out loud!

[Lubyla]

*still knocked out* ' I have no clue what is going on. I cant think strate'

[Fred Baggins]

'Me neither...why am I thinking, you can't understand me when I'm thinking!'

[Lubyla]

' I am uncocious, for the first thing, please help me, then we can sort this out!'

[Silverstripe]

Alasse (to Star and Faith): <I must go now. I hope to see you again someday! When you reach the Kingdom of Writewraiths, tell Calien...to look for me in Lothlorien.> She smiled, mounted Ellaire, and left.


The one following me was a young woman -- a girl, really I stopped and looked at her in surprise. I KNEW that girl! <Ailin? What are you doing here?>

<Yes, it's me, Calien. I came as soon as I learned you were back. Do you...remember me?>

[Fred Baggins]

"You're unconcious? This is one wierd day..." I dumped water one her, and she jumped up...it was ice cold water! I know, I know, that was mean, shut up...no one wants me to have any fun...

[Silverstripe]

<Yes, I remember you, my cousin.> I embraced Ailin joyfully.

<We need to find my people!>

<Yes! Ailin, Terwell and I need to go help some foxes...now. They're in trouble!!>

<I'll come with you, then.>

I nodded and the three of us ran further into the woods, into a small clearing, where a den of foxes faced a terrible battle...

ooc: LOL! Calien ran off and no one seems to care!:D

[Fred Baggins]

ooc: I care, I wanna go, but can't! Wish I knew what was going on...er I mean Faith of course.

[Silverstripe]

ooc: LOL! It's okay. I'm going to change "Ailin's" color so that it shows up, all right?

ic: It was Mara, the black fox, leader of the foxes and grandmother of Terwell, along with many high-ranking foxes, in council. Several wargs had surrounded them; the foxes were trapped. Ailin, Terwell, and I were about to plunge into battle, but something seemed...wrong. The wargs weren't attacking the foxes...why not? <Wait,> I said, <I'm going to talk to them.> Terwell gave me a look, but made no move to attack. And Ailin, who didn't know what was going on, simply stared at the wargs.

[Fred Baggins]

Danger looked up, smelling other wargs. He seemed unworried, as though it concered him not.

Danger looked at me, as though saying it had nothing to do with him. Perhaps foolishly I belived him. He did not speak again for the rest of the day, excpet to look at me with an expresion that told me what he thought.

[Lubyla]

After a bit, I uneasily stumbled to my feet, and started walking tward Faith.

[Fred Baggins]

"Are you ok?And while where're at it, am I ok? Feel my forehead, do you think I have a fever?"

[Lubyla]

I am alright, though I had an odd dream. *feels Faith's head* no, you feel alright.

[Fred Baggins]

Good, good, then I'm hallucinating is all...

[Lubyla]

My dream, was that I could talk to you, not mind message, but just think to you really.

[Fred Baggins]

Good! Then we are both Hallucinating!

[Lubyla]

'what is going on? I am so confused' Yes, perhaps we are.

[Fred Baggins]

"Me too."

Starletta: "You too what?"

Me: "I'm also confused... anywho...um, where is everyone!"

[Lubyla]

Wait, did I say that aloud?

[Fred Baggins]

"I heard it."
Danger looks at her.
'That's wierd, Danger didn't...'

[Silverstripe]

<Who are you, and what do you want?>

<Who we are is not your concern. We seek the Empress,> said the largest of the wargs, their leader.

<WHAT Empress?!>

<The Empress of the Writewraiths.>

[Fred Baggins]

"Stay here Starletta...I'll be right back." I got up and walked off, warg in trail, and found Calein and her fox, with a group of other foxes, who where surrounded by wargs. I hid behind a bush, the warg with me. I listened, and found I understood snatches of what they where saying, but one thing came through loud and clear...

"Empress of Writewraiths"

I found myself sighing and wishpering "Again?" Though it was strangly quiet whisper, I was heard, and found.

[Silverstripe]

The leader of the wargs snarled. <There is a stranger here. Find her,> he ordered some of the younger wargs. Then Faith came out from behind a bush.

"Faith! What are you doing here? You shouldn't have come, really." (To the warg, without letting Faith in on the Link for fear of the answer I would get)<Why do you seek the Empress? And who is she, anyway?!> ]

[Fred Baggins]

"I heard something about an Empress of Writewraiths. I think it has smething to do with..." I shut my mouth from there. I did not want the wargs to know my real thoughts. "With a dream I had..." I think I can see the futer, fo r remembering the hobbit in gold robes earlier today I relized that it must have been...though the though it abserd, me! It looked just like the way I now look, but with glod robes...plus the tale-tell sign...she carried a gold notebook.

[Lubyla]

I sat on the grass, alone and forgotten, again, as usual. 'Why am I always left out? Never do I get to go. Humph'

[Fred Baggins]

ooc: then follow me! You don't have to just sit there! Do you know a Wayne Barry?

[Lubyla]

ooc: ach! your on? then why you not on AIM???

ic: *I stood up and walk in the direction that Faith went.*

[Silverstripe]

The leader of the wargs "laughed" mirthlessly.
<The 'why' should be obvious, even to an elf! Or should it?>

He was trying to be cryptic, which had always annoyed me. But I stayed silent as the warg continued.

<As for who she is, we know not; only that she is near.>

<Why have you trapped the foxes?>

<Oh, that? In hopes that one of the Tarrelin Lorai would come. It looks like that plan has worked perfectly, too, friend of foxes!>

I shuddered, and Terwell's eyes went wide with horror. "I should have known...I really should have been able to tell!" Yet if I'd known, I still would have had to come. It was my duty to defend the foxes, and Mara's group DID seem to be in great danger.

<Why do you seek one of the Friends? And how did you know about them?>

<Because, it is said, they know who the Empress is...and how to find her.> The warg growled softly. <And how we knew ... the day has come, little one, when your people can no longer hide.>

[Lubyla]

*as I approched, I could see a group of wargs, with some foxes, Faith, and Kathy, just staring at each other, and muttered to myself* Mindmessaging...too bad I can't do it.

[Fred Baggins]

I saw Star approching and mouthed "Stay back Star" I hoped she wasn't foolish enough to jump into the ring of wargs like I had...but then Star had always been very senceble.

[Lubyla]

After I realised they were wargs, I just kind of, unintentionally drew attention to myself. "WARGS?????WHAT ARE THEY DOING??????" I began to cry, as rainclouds moved in, begining to rain where we were, I not getting wet at all.

[Silverstripe]

I prepared to battle with the wargs, in case they attacked the foxes at my next statement. Yet somehow I thought that they never intended to. <Sorry, you're out of luck. I don't know who this Empress is!>

The warg's leader "laughed" again; it was a very odd sound. <Oh, you DON'T, do you?>

[Fred Baggins]

~Good one Star. Of course they're wargs, have you ever seen a regular wolf the size of a horse?~

[Lubyla]

*thunder starts* 'Humph, like there is anything I can do. I can even stupid mind message. There is nothing special about me'*Lightning strikes up*

[Fred Baggins]

I heard a growling, and looked back to the bush where I had been hiding. 'Danger' was there, I'd forgotten about him. He worked his way into the crowd of wargs, un-noticed, sinking his teeth into a few, killing them, but still un-noticed. All attention was on Calien and I. I partially understood what they where saying. 'I think Kathie's the Empress! I think...'

[Lubyla]

I stopped crying and the rain stopped. 'what do you think, why would you think that?'

[Silverstripe]

ooc: Here. I'll edit...:)

[Fred Baggins]

ooc: she wasn't saying it aloud. She was mind messageing with Star, because rmember ther little...mind...message thing? Ok maybe this will help to know that it was there MM.

ic: ~I think Kathie's the Empress! And I'm...~

[Lubyla]

~you are quite confusing. I thought you were Faith. And I also thought for a while that I was a monkey, but lets not go into that. Arg! Why couldn't i just be left alone?!?~

[Fred Baggins]

~A monkey? I am Faith! I ment...I-I'm her messenger...or something.~

Star: ~Well, you're short...furry...and you have a tail.~

Faith:~ A tail? Hobbits don't have tails.~

Star: ~You do.~

Faith: I Reached back and felt the tail. I quickly reached up and felt my ears, then down to my teeth. I was an Anthro! Before anyone else noticed, for they hadn't yet, I stuffed the tale into my pants, and arranged my long nappy hair to cover my ears. My teeth I could do nothing obout, or my eyes, if they had changed. I'd just have to be careful. ~Don't say anything about it. Not a word Star. Speacking of not a word...I havn't spoken a single one. How do you understand me?~

[Lubyla]

~I dont know. Whatever. Can I go wallow in self pitty now, or must I stay here?~

[Fred Baggins]

~O just go! You're really getting on my nerves. I thought you where Starlight Adams, but I guess you've changed so much it's not possble. So just leave. Leave me alone.~ (aloud) "And that goes for everyone! Just leave me alone for once!" I jumped up into a nearby tree, before anyone could stop me, and set off through the branches, not seeing the silent follower below.

[Lubyla]

It's not MY fault that I was taken here, kidnapped I should say. HRUMPH*begins to walk off, and is approached by a black horse.*

[Fred Baggins]

I knew who the black horse was,for Star had warned me, before she left. But I was to far by that time to know. Nor did I much care. But with out my knowledge, another hobbit/anthro crouched in a nearby tree, watching her.

ooc: An anthro is someone who has animal like qualitys. Mine have cat like qualitys, slinder kitty tails, kitty eyes, ears, and teeth. They can also move like cats.

[Lubyla]

*I looked at the horse* Morier. What do you want? I am of no good to your master. It has already come to pass. He is in no more need of me.

Foolish Starletta. You know what he wants, and you best come with me, for your little Dryad friend is not here to save you. He wants HER.

[Fred Baggins]

*The Anthro/hobbit snuck up behind the horse, and said wispering, but so that he could be heard* "I thought you could only approch her when she 'slept'. And who is HER...wait, nevermind, don't answer that."

[Lubyla]

*Snaps at hi,* I can get to her now, because she knows not of her true self. It's just easier to grab her when she is asleep. Now Starletta, want to go for a ride? It could be o, so much fun.

I dont know who SHE is, and no, I dont want to go for a ride.

He is not going to be very happy. But if you won't come willingly, I'll just have to TAKE YOU!

[Fred Baggins]

*He walked up to her, and stared into her face...seemingly into her mind. Then a Hesitant...* "Star? Starlight Adams? IT IS YOU! Starlight Adams, in Middle-earth! I never! Starlight! Faith's best friend! O, I'll bet you don't recognize me huh? It's me Freddy! Faith's twin Bro! Yea...I've changed a bit. But I don't drop water balloons on peoples heads anymore!"

[Lubyla]

*snarles* come!we have no time for a petty chitchat. I must be off, with Starletta of the Rain. No one will stop me this time.*he whispers a few words in the dark tounge, and Star falls unconcious.*

[Fred Baggins]

*He stared at the horse.* Hey buddy. This is NOT cool. Maybe you will remember some friends of yours. The dryads? To bad, cause they aint' here. But I am. *Freddy just stared at him though, hypnotizing him.*

[Lubyla]

*shakes his head* ARG! I have no time for this.*he turns and swishes Freddy away with his tail* I need to be off*starts to pick up Star*

[Fred Baggins]

"Odd. That usually works." From behind a voice spoke. "Stupid halfling. He's more powerful that you! He's a servant of the Dark lord. A stupid hypotist trick won't work!" I walked up to Star and did the only thing I knew to do. I woke her up.

[Lubyla]

*starts to wae* ARg, I had a funny dream. I drempt of my past again, though they were all here.

Hahaha, you htink that will work? She doesn't even know who she is? How can she possibly be able to ward me off? She is much too weak.

[Fred Baggins]

~Starletta. Use the neaklace. You remember how don't you? Please say you rmeember how, I don't know how else to help you!~

[Lubyla]

~I think I remember how.~*closes eyes, and hold the necklace in her hand*auta amin Utinu en lokirim, I wish not to see you.*falls*

Arg, well that may be, but i shall come back, for I have a task.*trots off, grunting*

[zavron]

ooc: errr...am i still in the dark pit?

[Silverstripe]

ooc: No, Lubyla got you out. Now, where am I? Okay, I think I know. :)

ic: I continued to talk to the wargs. Faith and Starletta stayed silent; neither seemed to notice us anymore. <No, I don't know who the Empress is! Why don't you just let those foxes go?!> Now I was mentally "shouting." Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a black horse gallop up to Star, but didn't realize what was going on.

<Let them go?! I'm afraid we can't do that, elf. Not until someone comes who knows who the Empress is.>

<What if...that person never comes?>

<For the foxes's sake, you must hope that someone DOES come.>

<If you harm them...>

<Spare us the threats ... Katharine.>

[Lubyla]

Aye, what could he want this time? What ever it is, I dont have it. Thank you though, for helpping to save me.*looks over at the wargs*Um, do you think they need help?

[Silverstripe]

At the mention of my 'Mundane Earth' name, my eyes grew wide. I heard someone ask me a question, and turned around to see Starletta. "Well, I don't know..." With a yelp of surprise, I cut off abruptly as the leader of the wargs attacked and knocked me to the ground. I took out my dagger and tried to stab the warg.

<Now, don't try to kill any of us, Katharine. We're not going to hurt you. Be careful, Katharine Welsh, for there are creatures you know not of, certain things about this world, about yourself, that you do not remember.>

[Lubyla]

*I saw the warg attack her* Do you need my help?I can give you the help of my blade.

[Silverstripe]

"No, Starletta, don't attack." <What are you talking about?>

<You. Not knowing who I am, hardly knowing who you are, or what you are.>

<I still don't understand. I'm Calien, an elf.>

<Yes...and no, my friend.>

[Lubyla]

Alright.If you do need me though, tell me. Is there anything you need?

[Silverstripe]

Terwell trotted over to join the rest of the foxes, telling them not to be afraid, assuring them that all would be well. He hoped his words were true.

I flinched. <Friend?!> "Thank you, Starletta. If I need help, I'll call you."

<Yes. You still don't recognize me, do you?>

Suddenly he began to speak in the warg tongue, rather than mind messaging. To my shock I found that I could still understand him.

'Think back. Back to the time when you were very young, and you were captured...'

I shuddered, then replied in the tongue I had not known I could speak. 'I remember. I-I was VERY young, and very frightened... there were wargs ... one of them ordered my release. It was you, wasn't it?'

'Yes, and there is more to the tale.'

I felt a cold chill go down my spine. 'I know.'
The warg stepped back and I got up. I turned back to Faith and Star. "Trouble is here. I suggest we all be very careful...because Danger is not the only one who can take the form of a warg!"

[Lubyla]

Aye, though our evils are quite different.Mine, per say, is Morier. Though, I do not know what else follows me, for I have not been myself latley.

[Fred Baggins]

I felt a strange feeling come over me. Before I knew what I was doing, before I could stop myself I found myself bowing to Calein, and speacking strange words. They where in elvish, but I could understand what I said. "Empress, you-we are in grave danger m'lady! We are under attack. I speak about the futer and not the present. Please help us! Please m'lady! Please!" Then the feeling passed, and I got sick.

ooc: By the by, Faith's not an anthro, I changed my mind. The other anthro is still and anthro though.

[Lubyla]

*I saw Faith turn to Calien, and I but only turned away, walking off, I bumped into Lubyla.*I-i'm sorry princess, I did not see where I was going.

*My eyes stayed dtill on the little...pest. How DARE SHE even speak to me. I know who she is.*

[Fred Baggins]

Danger looked at me, a look of true concern. From that moment, I knew I could trust him, with my life. Awartha's on the other hand...I chose not to call him Danger. I thought of a better name. I thought back, to before America, before the Fire, and before I had meet Starlight. I thought back to a clearing in the woods, and a little girl was playing there, and found a black wolf puppy. She had named him Buddy, and raised him, and though, she felt he was no harm to her, he had never trusted anyone else, and attacked them. I thought to myself. ~You're name is Buddy.~

[Lubyla]

Never call me princess again.Where is the one they call Faith?

O're yonder in the clearing. He came again.

*At hearing this, my face turned into concern.* Morier is here? You have seen him?Aye, then i fear we have more to fear than we think, for one among us may fall under Morier, and shall be the death of us all. You shall stay with me, Starletta.

[Fred Baggins]

*A creature slunk along in the tree tops. He looked down at Faith, his eyes glowing. No one had seen him leave, good good. No one would rmember him. Starletta least of all. But his sister...she would never remember him. She would not care if she knew who he was. No one would. No one ever did. But he is used to that feeling now. He is used to being turned down, and rejected. The words of hatred still rang in his ears. A halfing, that looks and acts like a cat! Surely we don't want HIM here. And he would be thrown out again. So now he lived alone, though he was quit content. But Faith...if only she would remember her brother.*

I got up, a little stuned. What had just happened, I could not tell. I just prayed that the wargs hadn't understood me. I staggered over to Starletta, and Lubyla. Then I fainted.

[Lubyla]

I thought it was MY job to faint all the time.

Be glad it isn't you this time, but I fear Morier will come for her too, but if not Morier, his friend.

[Silverstripe]

Faith spoke to me, calling me Empress. I was worried, for I knew her words were true. <I will help as I can,> I said, letting Faith, but no others, in on the Link. The warg leader said nothing, but gazed intently at me for a while. Then he turned to the other wargs.

'The rest of you will leave. I must talk to the elf,' he said in a tone that left no room for argument. All the wargs, save him, trotted off into the distance.

'You're planning on coming with us, aren't you... (I searched my memory for a good name to call him) Hunter (not being able to come up with anything else at the moment)?'

The warg "smiled." Hunter, you call me.'? That is not my name, but it will do. Yes. I'm coming with you. I believe you can lead me to her, to the Empress.'

Again he spoke in a tone that meant "Don't argue -- or else!" I sighed. "Hunter...er, the warg, says he's coming with us," I said.

[Fred Baggins]

"But where exactly are we going? I don't belive anyone ever told me." I had woken in time to hear Calien tell us the warg was coming. I was still wozy, I felt so sick. I wished I could just regain all my energy, and go back to normal. Then, I felt something grow around me. I was regaining my energy! Could it be that in this world I had gained some sort of power?

[Silverstripe]

I shrugged. "Back to camp, I suppose. But wherever it is, we have another companion." I sighed.

<What?! A warg, as our companion? After what happened with Danger? Calien, you can't be serious!>

<Oh, but I am. None of us could stop him from coming, anyway.>

The warg snorted. 'You'll need to have me along, Calien, and you know it.'

I ignored Hunter's statement. 'Be careful what you say. Danger, the other, speaks this tongue.'

[Fred Baggins]

"His name is Buddy. Not Danger. Don't call him Danger.He's not danger, unless he is truly dangerous. His name
is Buddy." I don't know why I felt so strongly about this, but it seemed right. "But anywho, shall we be off!? I'm ready to sit dwon! It's been a long day, and I feel there is yet more to come. If only Liat where here to dream. Have I told you about Liat yet Starletta? O, I can't wait to acctually do something with her character when we get back to Mundane Earth."

[Silverstripe]

I nodded. "Buddy, then."

Hunter growled. 'This "Buddy" is a companion of yours, then? Very well, but I'll be keeping an eye on him. AND you. Do any of your friends know?'

'I don't think so.'

[Fred Baggins]

"Well, can we just go now? I need to comb Buddy's fur, if he's ever going to look the way he used to again." A water balloon made from leaves dropped on my head.I scampered up the closest tree, pinning down a hobbit anthro. "Well you must really know my pet peeve huh?"

"I'm sorry m'am, I didn't know it would make you so mad. I just wanted to see if you would remember it."

That stoped me dead in my tracks. "Remember it? Of course I would remember it but how would you-"

"Faith Renee Lamb, do you now know your own twin brother?"

I turned him around looking into his face. "You-you know my name? and that I had a brother? How could you find such things out?"

"What do you mean Faith? I AM your brother. Fred. Freddy Astair Lamb. Do you not know me?!"

"Freddy is dead. Duh. That's a very crule trick, preteneding to be my brother, when everyone know's he's dead. His body was found in the ashes

"What do you mean, about her friends?"

[Silverstripe]

I looked at the Anthro with some concern. I knew what he was, knew also that he would know what I was. Then I heard Faith ask Hunter what he was talking about.

'We do not speak of it aloud, in the common tongue!' said Hunter. <In truth we should only mind message. But one of you must know... Calien, tell her.>

I sighed, reluctant to reveal myself. I knew my mind messaging was secure, thanks to the Link; only Terwell, Hunter, and Faith would hear me. Danger might, too, but then, he probably already knew. <Do you remember that I warned you Dan-er, Buddy, wasn't the only one who could take the form of a warg? Hunter is another one. And...so am I.>

[Fred Baggins]

I'm sure my shoulders must have sagged. I looked at her in disbelife. A type of shape-shifter. I remebered the RPG she made me join about shape-shifters. So much was happening. Now more than ever I wanted to be alone.<O...I-I have to go...find...someone. Can you watch this anthro for me, I wanna talk to him when I get back. I-I have to go. I will beback by nightfall though!> and I left.

ooc: FYI Kathie, you don't know anything about my brother. Faith never mentioned him, and as far as you are concered she had no brother. Also Lamb is there real last name. Faith was forced to change it when she came to the states for reasons that will be later revealed.

[Silverstripe]

I nodded and let Faith go. Oh, I knew she really just wanted to be alone. But I understood the feeling, and felt sorry for her. With Buddy, she had a constant companion, one who could not and would not leave her. I, at least, can be truly alone; Terwell doesn't have to follow me everywhere. Still...I may have understood, but I was sad that she wanted to leave us. Had I lost my best friend again?

Hunter shook his head sorrowfully. <Much pain, anger, sorrow. This is why you should not have left, Calien.>

<I knew what I was doing then.>

<You can come back, you know. Come with me, just for awhile, they long to see you again. The anthro can follow, and the fox stay with his kindred.>

<Someday I will go with you to see the others, Hunter, but not today.>

ooc: Good to know!:)

[zavron]

ooc: My carachter doesn't seem to be going anywhere!! I was going to include him more but Lubyla came and saved Fred and me out of the PIt!! I was going to do something but now I can't!!:mad: :mad:

ic:
I looked aound and I new, I headed for Angband and sat on the dark throne. I was devoured by the darkness and I was gone.

ooc: Here comes a new carachter.

ic:
I was suddenly sucked into my computer screen. I screamed and then I landed with a bump. I looked around to see, I was sat on a mountain. I shouted, I was afraid of Heights!! Suddenly the Ice I was sitting on started to move and cracked, I started to slide down the mountain. A Long time I fell, and I reached the bottom of the Mountain.

It was all so strange. One minute I was on the Moot in The rpg forum viewing a strange thread called writewraiths in Middle-Earth and suddenly I was...wherever I was now!

I got up and started to walk. After a Long time of walking I came upon, a Hobbit? An Elf? and a Dwarf? All talking to Wargs and Foxes!! I was in Middle-Earth!!

[Silverstripe]

It was then I remembered Starletta was still with us. "The warg is Hunter, and he'll be coming with us. Don't worry, he's a friend."

[Lubyla]

Alright.

Another...hum...you best keep him in line, for he travels with you alone. Let us go back to the campsite and rest, for tomorrow we set out.

[zavron]

I stepped out of the bush I hid myself in and stood infront of the others. Only know that i realised the bush I was hidden behind was a tree. I looked down on the others. I lifted up my hand and I saw wood. ''Oh my God! I'm an Ent!!'' I shouted.

[Fred Baggins]

*The anthro walked over to a nearby tree, and sharpened his claws...or fingernails...or whatever, and the bark. Then the tree shouted out and the anthro jumped back.* I-I'm sorry sir! I didn't mean to! *The anthro began to run and catch up with Faith, but was stoped by Calien.*

I didn't know where I was going. This was to much for me. To much was happening. I opened my notebook and wrote "An anthro who claims to be my brother, my best friend is a skin changer! I have powers of some sort, and I'm in middle earth! What is happening?" Gold lettering began to appear underneath what I had wrote. "Perhaps it is all ment to be. Middle earth is where you belong, that is obvious. Perhaps it was the same for he who claims to be your brother." I sighed and closed the book. The sun began to sink, and I climbed out of the tree I had been in to get away from Buddy, and made my way to camp.

[Lubyla]

*I looked at Starletta* What is troubling you?

I want to know who I realy am. Though I fear even you could not tell me that.

Your right, I cannot, for I know not.

[zavron]

''Can anyone tell me where I am and how I got here!'' I asked.

[Silverstripe]

The anthro began to leave, but I held him back. "Wait. Faith told me to look after you." Then I turned to the "tree" that had spoken ... an Ent? "Are you a-a Writewraith?" I asked.

<Like you? Of course he is! D'you think Ents always go about shouting like that?!>

[zavron]

''Err...Yeah! I think so! but I'm not so sure what I am Now!''

[Silverstripe]

"Well, you look like an Ent." <Can you mind message?>

[Adrian Baggins]

Guys I want to join

Name: Adrian Baggins(had my last name legally changed dad went for it)(mom died I live wit my dad alone)

Age:13

Apperance:almost pointy ears(on mondane(sp)earth),5'2", Brown-Blond mixed hair, deep percing blue eyes

Hobbies: reading, writing(especially tolkien fan fiction), day dreaming about tolkien characters(Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin esp.) , daydreaming about Elijah Jordan Wood

I walked down the hall to my first period class in 7th grade it was computer, and although I was a computer wiz I was nervous because of it being my 1st day at a new school(transfered from the christian school to the middle school). When I got to the classroom I was relieved to see my friends(I'm making them up someone can join and be one of them later) Brandon, Bobby, and Grace with an empty seat right next to Brandon(hotty). I took that seat and started doing wht we were supposed to do FREE WRITING OR ANY THING ELSE ON THE COMPUTER(YES).All of a sudden Brandon, Bobby, Grace, and I started floating. We disaperared and were gone.(we fall near y'all you hear the thud and go see what it was you meet us)(I'm a wizard/shifter with a wolf(my dog came)who can turn into a wolf, hobbit, or elf with a mithreal and gold staff with a rainbow crystal on top , Grace is a hobbit, Brandon and Bobby are Elfs.)

[Silverstripe]

At that moment there was a heavy THUD. Hunter pricked up his ears. "Four...people? From out of the sky!"

I nodded. <I think they're of m-> I cut off, remembering that Hunter was searching for the Empress, and I still didn't know WHY. Calling the Writewraiths "my people" might not be the best thing to do at the moment. <The Writewraiths.>

Hunter listened again, and sniffed the air. <One could almost be our sister, for she is a 'shifter. But she is NOT our sister!!> He snarled, showing all his teeth.



"All right, let's go find out what that sound was." <and Hunter, please don't kill anybody>

<Now, Sister! You know I won't attack unless THEY attack first.>

"Follow us." Hunter and I began walking towards the crash.

[Adrian Baggins]

"Ouch! You guys okay? What happened?"I asked rubbing my back. "I believe we have fallen through a hole in the space time continum though I could be wrong," said Bobby sitting up."You always are wrong Bobby, so what else is new," Grace commented starring at me and the guys."What's...Woah, Grace what happened to you?"Brandon asked wheeling around and looking at all of us. I looked in my backpack and pulled out a mirror. I screamed in shock as I noticed that I was wearing ble robes and on the gound beside my feet was a staff with a rainbw crystal. After we all saw what w looked like we started talking nonsence untill we could figure out where we were. All of a sudden there was a movement in the bushes. Swift(the wolf we had figured out was my dog) tensed up and started moving towards the bushes growling deep in his throat. Before I knew what I was doing I was drawing a sword from my side and picking up the staff. Everyone else was also getting ready to attack.

[Fred Baggins]

*~Relax~ *Thought the anthro.* ~I wasn't going anywhere.~ *He then heard a THUD, and nearly jumped up a tree...or someones back. When the shock went down he looked around embaressed, he was letting his animal instincts get the better of himself. He curled his tail around himself, and combed his hair so that the ears blended in with his hair. His eyes and theeth, he could do nothing about.*

[Lubyla]

Starletta and Lubyla walked over to the Anthro.

*holds the hilt of her new blade* Who are you?

He is a friend of mine...I think, do not harm him Lubyla, he means no harm to you.

[Fred Baggins]

I'm Fred! And I don't mean any harm to anyone, well...unless they look good to eat...but in that case it would be an animal, not a person.

[Lubyla]

*Starletta cringed* Ew!

Who are you with? For surley I have not seen an Anthro in these parts before.

[Fred Baggins]

Who am I with, you must be joking! As if anyone would hang out with a freack of nature. *Turns to Starletta* Sorry kid, I didn't think I would gross you out. You look familar. Both of you, but the kid more than the elf. *cringes* Sorry, guess we are about the same age.

[Lubyla]

O? Do we now? Where are you from?

[Fred Baggins]

What's with all the questions! I'm from here. Middle-earth...technically. Look, I've lived here since I was about 8. That's all ya need to know.

[Lubyla]

*raises an eyebrow* um hum

*Looks at him, not blinking at all, almost like she was trying to pry into his mind. She then sighs and sits down* What is the use of being here when I can't even do anything magical, like Mindmessage, or read minds.

[Fred Baggins]

*He then smiled, and began to jump up and down.* I know you! You're Starlight! Starlight Adams! I know you!

[Lubyla]

I wish I could say the same.

I knew you knew her

[Fred Baggins]

"I don't like you. You know to much." *mumbles* "Mary Sue."

I was walking back, slowly when I saw the anthro talking to Lubyla and Starletta. I began to get so mad. What kinda lies would the stupid halfling be feading them? I decided to find out the truth, once and for all. I walked up behind him, and grabbed his coller.

"Who are you. What is your real name, and why do you insist on telling these lies."

"What lies Faith? I told you who I am, I'm Fred. Freddy, your twin remember? Aww, lemme go Faith, that ol' lock is gettin' old. If you'd give me a chance I could still beat ya."

"Just shut up. Go back to your home, or what ever it is you live in."

"Tha' was cold Faith. Ya don't recognize me?"

"Even if I did, and I'm not saying I do, there's no way on Earth you could be my kid brother."

"This ain't earth. It's Middle-earth."

[Lubyla]

*Looks up at Faith, as a flash of fire was seen, almost like a quick dream.*

[Fred Baggins]

With out letting go, I turned him around, staring at him, past the odd eyes, and cat like ears. I was almost reading his mind...ok not really. I thought hard. If I cute my hair to match his, then grew ears and things, would we look exactly alike? Nah, but then we wheren't identical twins. But he sure did look a lot like-

No I couldn't go on thinking like this. He was dead, Freddy was dead. I'd seen his body, I was the one that found it. That had been the death of two of my best friends, my brother and my pet. I had found his body, all mangled, and torn up, almost beyond recognition.

"I said it already, you are not my brother. He's dead." I threw him to the ground. "And dead people do not come back to life." I walked away, back to Calien, and Hunter, but now...there where more! An ent, a wizard, a wolf, two elves, and a hobbit(yea!). "More Wr-"

[Adrian Baggins]

"What is it Swift?" I asked almost as if I was afraid to urge him on because whatever it was might not be a foe. "Let's check it out!" Brandon said moving towards the bush. "Yah let's," Bobby agreed moving forward as well. I moved with them curious as to what it was. We were almost at the bushes when Grace cried out very loudly, "HEY GUYS WAIT FOR ME." "Grace be quiet!" I told her turning around rather quickly."Sorry," she mummbled. we were 2 feet away, one. Then we stopped we could here voices. Who'se they were we couldn't guess. We stood there rooted to the spot.

[Adrian Baggins]

"Hey lets just move up there and spy on whatever or whoever it is," Brandon said moving slightly foreward again."Okay," I said moving in front of him. We all started moving foreward with Swift in front. We reached the bush and looked over it there were two people or were they creatures, anyway, we startled them and they jumped up and got ready to attack. "Wait," one of them said to Brandon,"don't I know you?" "I don't know, you do look firmilliar(sp)," Brandon told the one who spoke. "I am Calien and this is Hunter," the first one who spoke to Brandon said to all of us. "I am Adrian Baggins and this is Brandon Tumbarke, Grace Willows, and Robert "Bobby" Flow. We're writewraiths," I said comming foreward and sheathing(sp) my sword,"This is Swift my wolf."

Swift started to growl again shortly after this and we saw another person comming towards us.

[Fred Baggins]

"Of course you're writewraiths. Everyone who is appearing out of no where to day are writewraiths." I held my hand out to Adriana. "Hi, Faith Lowe, wraitewraith name Fred Baggins.' I pointed to the warg behind me. "And he's trouble. But don't worry, he won't do anything to you, as long as I've got a hold of him. His name is Buddy."

[Lubyla]

*Starletta and I walked over to everyone,*What is this? More Writewraiths?

Ok, Lubyla, whay am I here? I wasn't even really a writewraith.

I shall tell you that later. Now we need to find out who they are.

[Silverstripe]

Hunter growled. He didn't like this "Adrian Baggins," who seemed like one of his 'sisters' but wasn't.

I sighed. "Do you have, er, Middle Earth names? I mean Adrian Baggins and Grace Willows are fine, but Brandon and Bobby might want to, um, sound more elvish. You, too, ah...oh, what is your name anyway? The one who looks like an Ent."

'Greetings, Swift. Do you understand my words?' asked Hunter in the warg tongue.

[Fred Baggins]

Buddy also seemed rather wary of the newcomers. At the moment I was a little to upset about the anthro to notice. Instead I began to think a little more, about leaving this place. The answer was obvious, staring you right in the face actually. If the tales are true, then Middle-Earth isn't another world...just the past, and if this was true then all I had to do was find-

It was just a matter of time.

[Lubyla]

Faith, do you know who these newcommers are? I didn't summon them.*Looks at Starletta*

What?! You think I did this?!? You know perfectally well I can't do that sort of thing!!!I can't even mind message.

[Fred Baggins]

"Don't look at me. Well maybe you can, I'm not sure anymore, but if I did it, I sure didn't do it consiously."

[Lubyla]

<I dont think you did it, truely I think Starletta did, perhaps on accident.>

~Why would she think I did it? I can't evendo any magic.~

[Fred Baggins]

<o>
~Um...Starletta, I think you can Mind message.Er...somewhat anywho...~

[Lubyla]

~No, not again, why is it that I always hear faith's voice when I think questions???~*Fiddles with something in her pocket.*

[Fred Baggins]

~I think it's because you CAn mind message. Duh.~ *Rolls eyes*

[Lubyla]

~I can't, Lubyla and I already tried, and proved it wrog.~

[Fred Baggins]

~Think about it...or have you become that stupid? Your thinking not talking, and yet I can hear you. I'm thinking and not talking and yet you can hear me.~

[Lubyla]

~I know, but I cant mind message, I would have to have a mind link to talk.~

[Fred Baggins]

I just shook my head "Nevermind, just forget it." I looked up to see Lubyla looking strangly at me...as a matter of fact everyone was. Of course I'm normally used to this, but this time I couldn't figure out what the looks where for.

[Lubyla]

Is there something wrong Faith?

[Fred Baggins]

I don't know! You tell me!

[Lubyla]

You and Starletta have been acting oddmy.

[Fred Baggins]

I sighed relived. "O, is that all. I thought for a minuet that...well never mind that. Don't pay it anymind, I DON'T think it will happen AGAIN."

[Silverstripe]

Swift didn't respond to the warg's question, yet Hunter guessed (by Swift's startled, but pleased expression) that perhaps the wolf DID understand him, at least a little bit.

As I finished speaking to the newcomers, I felt a sudden, sharp pain and fell to the ground.

<Oh, Calien, no, not now! Get out of here, quick!>

I turned, mind messaged to Faith, <Follow me...> then sped off into the forest. Hunter and Terwell would let no others follow.

[Lubyla]

How is it I always seem to be left behind?

Because you are usually with me.

[Fred Baggins]

I almost just stayed there, then I woke up and followed Calien, trying to keep from stumbling. Boy I needed coffie...

[Silverstripe]

As Faith and I ran through the forest a ways, I tried to tell Faith what was happening. <The danger of being, ah, what I am is ... if you delay transformation too long, you'll be, er, COMPELLED to transform. And I had put it off for years... 'course I couldn't transform in Mundane Earth.>

[Fred Baggins]

<Course. And you're taking just me along because...why?>

[Silverstripe]

I sighed. She was NOT going to like what I had to say... <Stop me if I try to kill anyone. Look, you've read about werewolves, right? How they don't think like humans anymore once they transform? For the first couple of minutes after we transform, we're a bit like that. I will be thinking like a very agressive warg! Ask Buddy, he'll tell you about it.>

[Adrian Baggins]

"I don't know how we got here. Wait maybe this email I got has something to do with it," I said looking through my backpack and pulling out my laptop."Here it is." (EMAIL)'Want to get away from it all?Dream of going to Middle Earth? click here to go there.'
"I thought it was a web site link. I didn't know this would happen. Brandon, Bobby, as for your names she has a point. Brandon your middle name ought to work that would make you Calliman(pronounced Kalliman) Tumbarke (pronounced Tumbark).Bobby if we used your middle name you would be Celrond(Kelrond) Flow. That will do I guess for now anyways. Right now I want my snack I packed for later..."(at this moment I shift to wolf form without thinking or wanting to.
(me to Swift)"Hi Yah Swift. Long time no see. Lets play around till I figure this out."

[Silverstripe]

<I'll want to be away from everyone, Faith, even you for a minute.> I stepped into a nearby grove of trees. At that moment, I felt the familiar transformation, and knew I had gone from elf to warg. I now had the strong urge to kill: to destroy anyone that got in my way. The only creatures that would be safe around me now were other wargs.

ooc: Swift counts as "warg," so does Adrian in her wolf form.

[Adrian Baggins]

I sensed something. I wanted to fight whatever it was that was making me sense it. Then again I didn't because it was farmilliar(sp).So firmilliar(sp) infact that I also wanted to run to whatever it was Swift agreed. Whatever it was we had to fight yet be nice. This would be hard.
There was a noise in the distance. it sounded like a scream of terror. Swift and I rushed towards the sound.

[Silverstripe]

Through the trees the silver warg who had been Calien saw a young human boy, probably no more than eight years old. ATTACK! The warg's one thought now was to kill! Then suddenly THEY were there, blocking her from reaching her prey: Swift, and the Kin Who Was Not Sister. The warg didn't attack them; they were her kind. Twice the silver warg attempted to lunge past them; both times, one of them blocked her from passing. Once more, the warg Calien tried to dart past the wolves. This time, she was successful. She ran towards the young hobbit..but the 'madness' had passed, and she was thinking like an elf again.

I stopped in my tracks, blinking at the young boy. What was he doing there alone? And where was Faith? And who had stopped Killer? (Somehow, I've never been able to think of Calien-the-warg-in-attack-mode as me, though I can remember anything she's done, and have always called "her" Killer.) I turned to the strange wolf and Swift, who had kept Killer -- me -- from harming anyone that day. 'Thank you.'

[Adrian Baggins]

'You'r welcome,' Swift and I said together walking up to the warg. "I am that girl Adrian although in this form Swift calls me Alidrinan(pronounced Ali-drin-annHyphins for pronouncing purposes only do not say with space).We sensed your change and ran to protect and fight if we had to but we knew you were a friend.

[Silverstripe]

'Indeed? I am Calien, usually called Rraella in this form.' Translated, it meant "Silver," for I WAS silver-colored when I transformed. 'I'm looking for a hobbit friend of mine, Faith. She carries a gold notebook. Have you seen her? And do you know who that little boy is?'

[Adrian Baggins]

I don't think I know the boy but I think I saw the girl run back to the others.

[Silverstripe]

Now I was very puzzled, and a bit hurt. I knew Faith wasn't afraid, so why had she left? And Hunter, where was Hunter?

<Silver? I'm here.>

I "laughed." Sometimes it seemed that the warg could read my thoughts. <Aye, but where are the others, our brother and sister?> I hadn't let anyone in on the Link but Hunter, so only he and Terwell could hear me.

<"Buddy" is with Faith. I don't know where "Snowstorm" is.>

[Adrian Baggins]

'Swift I need to go check on Grace, Calliman, and Celrond. I will be right back.'I said and dashed off."What was up with that?' Swift said and sat down watching the Rraella worry. 'The girl wasn't scared she just up and ran off like she had to find someone,' Swift added trying to calm Rraella down.
