My Captain, My King

Chapter Twenty

Why do I think this picture is cute? Idk.. Ok I'm gonna go now.... This is not edited, and I still want you all to tell me if you see any mistakes... Anyways enjoy.

Warning: before you read, I want you to know that there is a huge plot twist. Keep all objects to yourself, because if you throw a vase at me, I won't be writing anymore. Also, this book is going to be put on a hold... Maybe. If I do, then I will say that it is on hold. Also, the song in this is called Breaking The Habit

Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas pack our belongings. I sit in a tree by myself. I know what I must do. I have to go save the Hobbits. They need me more then Aragorn and the others need me. The men are strong.

I grab a paper and pencil and start to write.

Dear Aragorn,

Thank you for taking me on this journey. I felt like I had a family. I am so happy. I am sad to leave now, I have found something quite important to do. Listen close. I am going to try and destroy the Orcs. My parents would be proud of me. No one else is.

I need you to tell Legolas and Gimli for me. Especially Legolas. He is going to be sad. He has been my best friend for a very long time. I need you to help me. Maybe we may cross paths again. Just keep everybody safe for me. Find the Hobbits. They need you the most. Im sorry for this short letter, but I hope it is enough for you to understand.

Love and best wishes,

Alianna.

I place the letter on Aragorn's bag and start to head out to the woods with my belongings. I tug my hood over my head. It was cold outside. I wish I was with Lord Elrond in Rivendell. It would be warm. I would sit by the fire, reading books, eating hot soup.

I walk deeper into the woods, singing to myself.(song above is what she is singing.)

"

Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again

[Pre-Chorus:]
I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

[Chorus:]
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm
Breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I had no options left again

[Pre-Chorus:]
I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

[Chorus:]
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

[Bridge:]
I'll paint it on the walls
'Cause I'm the one at faults
I'll never fight again
And this is how it ends

[Chorus:]
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
To show you what I mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight! "

I finish singing, and feel some rain start to pour. Dammit. I hate the rain when it is cold. I huddle up, and run to a tree, but I hear a twig snap, and I hold on to my belongings close, and turn around. There was a man with a cloak over his head. I back away, my back pressing against a tree. The man moves closer and closer to me. He is almost touching my nose. I feel his heavy breath on my face. "Um, I don't want to be very rude, but a lady needs personal space..."

The man chuckles, and he pulls his hood back. It is Aragorn. "I followed you here." I feel a blush creep up on my face.

"Why?" I ask, looking into his blue eyes.

"Why?", he asks, confused."I care, that is why! I don't want you to leave us."

"You shouldn't care." I glare. He glares back.

"I care because I love you! You clearly don't care about us, so you will leave us. I thought you would actually care about us, but I was wrong." A tear slips from his eyes. I cup his cheek with my hand, and start to sing softly.

"I'm so tired of being here

Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

[Chorus:]
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

You used to captivate me by your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face-it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice-it chased away all the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

[Chorus]

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

you still have all of me..."

Aragorn wipes away some of the tears that come down my face. " I have to do this, Aragorn.. I thought of all of you people, you would be the one to understand that I was doing this for us! I thought you knew! It would help you in the future when you are traveling! "

Aragorn sighs heavily. "Be safe. I will leave you to do what you must. But, please be safe.. I love you." He kisses me softly, and I smile through the kiss.

"Don't worry, I will be very careful. " he nods, and hugs me.

"May the Valar guide you. Be careful." He smiles softly, and turns to leave. I smile sadly, and turn too.

"Goodbye, Aragorn. I wish you and the Fellowship, the best."

Srry for the short chapter. At least you got one. Vote, comment, recommend..? I guess. The guy in my math class keeps touching my back, and I feel uncomfortable. Also, I decided I would give SHOUTOUTS to ppl who are the first to comment and vote... So.. I'm gonna start it off with @Tammyt70 she was probably the first to comment on one of the chapters..anyways, I'm gonna write the next chapter out. Bye
