Chapter 1

Years had past, the rumors started to get fade, the rumors that became myth to them and It's about the woman who stayed in the forest, It said when you enter her place you will no longer escape and It said she also kidnapped childrens at night, the towns started to leave and be aware on the forest because the woman beast would harm them or eat them.

Wrong!

The woman who stayed in the forest was a she-elf, When poor mortals or dwarves that has no place to stay she would send them to her realm and welcome them to stay, she was lovely,kind-hearted and beautiful, She doesn't care when everyone calls her mean things, she love them but she didn't like to go out on the forest because of the reason she has been hiding it since she was a child. After hundred years had past she was very despondent when the towns leaving their homeland because of her.At night she would always sing a lullaby for letting out her sadness.

'One day...' she said to herself as she looked up in the sky, tears streaming down her face and she quickly wipe it away, thats when she felt a hand on her shoulder and she turn her head to the old man, she smiled and hug the old man.

"I've missed you!" She cried.

"I've missed you too my dear, lady Irithiel" he chuckles and he gently pulls her out for embrace and he touch her face wiping out her tears, She looks away sadly..

"The town...."

"Yes I know, It was not your fault" He said.

She nods and she sat on the rock which he did the same, Both of them started to talk and the old man make funny jokes while she laugh lightly, He told her to stay with her place for a while, she said yes and they both leave and went to her home, the next day both of them walking throught the woods and they sat on the rock  talking and afterthat they went silent,they both looking up in the sky..

"You've change, gandalf" she spoke.

"Yes indeed, Lady Irithiel" He sigh and he turn his head on her.

"It's for the best, I only came here to continue my mission" Irithiel looks at him confused.

"What mission?" She asked.

"To bring the ring to the mountain of doom" after listening that her eyes widening in fear as she stood up infront of him.

"I thought It was destroyed!"

"No, my dear" he said as he continued.
"It has been missing since hundred years ago, and it seems the ring was holding to my dear old friend, Bilbo Baggins"

"Who has he?"

"A Hobbit"

"A hobbit? Never heard of them"

"It's smaller than the dwarves, my friend"

"Why did he keep the ring after so many years?" She said looking upset.

"He didn't know it was a curse, I convince him that I was doing the right thing and doing whats best for him, He did listen and he put it on the envelope, wrapping it up and he put it on the table" He said putting his staff on his lap.

"I plan to give it to his nephew, Frodo Baggins and we went to Rivendeil-" He stopped and his face turning serious.

"Gandalf-" he shush me and he stood up looking around which I did still confused..

"Someone is coming" he spoke and he went to the tree as he whispered. The Tree began moving little slowly and gandalf walks forwardly and turn his head to Irithiel, Irithiel nod and both of them walking their way on the sound, They heard screaming and it stop, Irithiel and Gandalf stop on their tracks and wait.

The tall tree walking towards them with a two small figures on the tree's shoulder side by side, The tree grab the figures and put them on the ground, Irithiel looks at the two tiny man while they were groaning and slowly looks at Gandalf shocked.

"Gandalf?" The tiny blonde man said.

Gandalf smiled and went to them.
Both small figures stood up and hugs him.

"We thought you were dead!"

"My there fellow friends, I would never die" Gandalf said and he broke the hug, while they were talking Irithiel stood there and cough causing the 3 of them looks at her.

"Who is this?" The tiny blonde guy said. Gandalf signal her to come which she did.

"My name is Irithiel" She said and bowed.

"Irithiel, this is Pippin.." Gandalf points at the small blonde, Pippin wave and smiled, "... and this is merry" he pointed at the other tiny man, Merry also wave and bowed.

"They are the hobbits" Gandalf finished.

"Pleasure to meet you, lady Irithiel" they said unison. "Pleasure to meet you as well" she smiled.

"What is this place?" Ask pippin.

"This is my home" she said and she looks at the Treebeard and then the two hobbits.

"Why are you guys here?" She asked.

"We were kidnapped by orcs, We escape because there's a Man riding a horse attacking them" Merry said.

"There's too many of them, We have our chance to escape and made our way here but the Orc was chasing us" pippin continued.

"We ran and we climb at the tree, the orc drag merry to the ground and then this talking tree saved us!" Pippin pointed at the Treebeard. "And It drag us here" Merry said.

"Man riding a horse?" Irithiel questioned, gandalf hold his staff tightly. "Rohan" he spoked as Irithiel looks at him confused.

"Rohan must be in danger"

"and why is that, mr. Gandalf?" Merry said.

"Saruman was controlling the king, I must go at sunset and heal him"

"Can we come?" Ask pippin.

Gandalf turn his head to them looking serious"No, both of you stay with Irithiel" pippin was about to talk but merry shove him and they both slowly nod.

" I do wish I would come with you gandalf " Irithiel spoke softly, Gandalf smiled and turn to her, "My dear friend, It's for your own safety and for your own good" He said softly at her as she nod and smile sadly, "Tolo, You must rest two of you at my realm" she said at the two hobbits.

They all made there way to Irithiel's home and rest for a while, Gandalf will leave tomorrow at sunset.
