A Thousand Years (LoTR/Harry Potter)

Chapter 20

Alex's P. O. V.

I picked up the Sword once more. It felt so good, my skills kicked in. I looked over to the pedestal again, this time, a bow, a quiver of arrows, daggers, knives, clothes and Lembas laid there. I looked down at me clothes, wow, I did not realize how dirty it was.

I strip off my dirty clothes and put on a green tunic. It hugged my curves, and from the waist on, it looked like leaves wrapped around my hip down to the knees. I put on the leather bodice and leather bracers which had fancy patterns on the front. I put on the brown leggings and leather boots. I let my hair loose. It's good to be an elf again.

I kept my daggers one in my boot, for emergency uses. I picked up the sword belt and attached it around my waist. I put my sword in the hole which you place a sword in. I sling the quiver across my back, I put my bow in the carrying-sleeve built to put the bow in it. I also strapped on the Elven Knives behind my back.

I was ready. I took a bite of Lembas, chewed and swallowed it and I'm ready to go. It's going to take days to get out of this forest, besides I don't even know the way out! I heard galloping. I turned around to see a silver unicorn.

I looked into it's eyes, and petted it.

"Can you give me a ride out, mellon?" I asked. It nodded. I mounted the unicorn.

He rode off into the wild.

---

After hours in the woods, we finally got out. I gave the unicorn some of my Lembas, somehow it was craving for bread. I looked around, there were orcs attacking the school. It looked like ten thousand of them. Without even thinking, I pulled out my sword and ran towards the battle, killing every orc in my way. It was war all over again.

Why does she want this sword? What's so great about it's power? She has the Sword of Doom, which has the same amount of power the Sword of Light possesses. Unless...

This thought caught me off guard. I was pinned to the ground. I pulled out my dagger and stabbed the orc's keag which caused it to wail. I got up and plunge my sword right through it's stomach. It fell to the ground.

An arrow flew past, a loud wail came from behind. I turned back to see a dead orc, I turned back to see, Legolas. He looked at me, surprised. He ran over to me.

"Melamin(My love)," I whispered. He smiled.

"Is it really you?" He asked.

"Yes..."

I heard a faint growl. Warg.

"Alex, what is it?"

"Warg..."

But soon the growl was covered by the sound of the hooves of horses trampling on the ground. I saw Gandalf on his horse beside... I gasp softly.

I swung my hand backwards, stabbing an orc.

"Legolas, how long have I been gone?"

"A month," he said. So basically we were talking and fighting at the same time. The power of multi-tasking.

"A month. A month?!" I was freaking out, "And nobody came out to find me?"

"We sent out a search party but none of them came back."

Once the army of elves charged towards us, the orcs started retreating. But we managed to kill them all. We kept not one bloody orc alive.

"Final count: 32" I said.

"Final count: 34. Well, it looks like you owe me 2 kisses on the lips." Legolas said. I groaned. Legolas and I had this little competition, who kills the most foul creature or who hits bullseye the most wins and the loser had to give each other a kiss. And most of the time Leggy won.

"Fine..." I said. I tip-toed and pecked his lips twice.

"Alex!" I turned to see a ginger running towards me.

"Lily. What's wrong?"

"Katie, she was taken," Lily said, gasping for air.

"Taken? The orcs took Katie..." I whispered. Why Katie? I thought.

"Alex? Is that really you?" A man said. I looked back. Tears swelled up in my eyes.

I ran into my father's arms.

"Ada..." I cried in happiness.

"My girl... I missed you so much!"

"Alex?" I looked up to see two familiar faces.

"Dan, Rohir!" I cried. They ran over to us and hugged us. My father and my brothers were here. Well, even though I lost my memories, I missed them so much.

I miss home.

I walked down the hall, I was attending a meeting. And yes, I still take magic courses. To beat Alaya, I need all the strength I can get. But all I want is to stop the war.

"Lemon Syrup," I said. That was the password to McGonagall's office.

I stepped on the swirling stairs, it swirled up. I walked into the office.

"Did you bring it?" My father asked.

"Yes." I pulled out the Sword of Light.

We began to discuss on the battle strategy. I will not let Hogwarts fall.

"I'm saying we lure them away from Hogwarts," I said.

"It's not that easy, my lady. They're smarter, more cunning, they would expect this." Gandalf said.

"We'll stand and fight then." Legolas said.

"We don't have any other choice, if it's war she wants, it's war she'll get."
