Silmarillion: A Distant Future

Chapter Twenty-Eight

Maglor mostly explained what happened since Aegnor was out and the twins were so where in the house. He was waiting for Rowan to get there to tell Curufin about Celebrimbor. Which still made his blood boil when he thought about it.

"I am more interested in what's been going on with you over these years," Celegorm said. "What have you been doing?"

Maglor looked at his brother and was quiet. A bunch of memories played in his head. He smirked a bit and then said, "oh. I have been around. Yet busy,"

Celegorm glared and shook his head, "I was hoping for details."

"Us too," the twins said coming in.

"You both came back too?" Celegorm said.

"He did tell us that," Curufin said.

"I wasn't listening fully," Celegorm replied with a shrug. The twins snickered and walked and sat together on the couch next to Maglor. Who could not help but smile, he almost had everyone back. He just needed Maedhros to be better and then Caranthir to come back.

"Uh. Kano? Are you alright?" Amras asked.

"Huh? Oh...yeah," He replied and dried his eyes. He did not realize he started to tear up. "So. Where was I up to in history?"

"You were about to tell us what you did over history," Said Amrod.

"No. I wasn't," He replied. "Look. After Rowan comes here and takes care of some things. Then I'll consider telling you PARTS of my life after everything."

The brothers shared a look and nodded. He then continued on with the quick history lesson.

Xander yawned and reached over and looked at his phone. "Oh. Hey sis," He said.

"Oh good you're awake," She replied on the other end.

"Yeah. What's up?" He asked.

"You know for someone who doesn't want to work with us anymore you sure help out a lot." She replied.

"What do you want?" He asked.

"Well, we were looking over some of the data and things you sent me. You were right, it was all too easy. Everything up until now was a mix of luck and planning," she replied.

"So the attack on Maglor before he left and finding his brother was all set up." He replied.

"That's right," She replied. "Our best guess is that it was a sort of test or a better way to monitor them."

"Maglor, his brother, or Aegnor?" He asked.

"Not a clue," She replied.

"Thanks, sis," He replied. "I guess I better call Alton and tell him."

"Yeah, well I have to go. I have some more things to look over," she replied. "Also. I know I should tell you at a better time but he proposed last night."

Xander was quiet and moved his phone away and looked at it. He then put it back to his ear and said, "WHAT!?"

"We are getting married, we are working out the details later." She said.

"About time," Xander said.

"It is," She replied.

"Also, I will be asking Timmy to be the flower girl," He replied.

His sister laughed and said, "Xander it is my wedding...I'll be more than happy than happy to have him as the flower girl."

Xander grinned and said, "Well you will be telling me more about this later. I should get back to working on this and I am sure are busy."

"I am and I do have to go. I'll talk to you later," She said.

"Bye sis," He said and they hung up. Xander smiled and put his phone down, it was really about the time he asked her. He stretched and sent a quick text to Alton giving him the update about what his sister came across. He walked into his living room and sat down. At least now with done he can go back to his life. Yet, his gut was telling him that this won't last long and his gut was rarely ever wrong about these things.
