One decision made differently - as the Three Hunters chase after the orcs who have captured Merry and Pippin, they run through that second night rather than rest -- and everything changes. Well, not everything. They're merely captured by the orcs like Merry and Pippin. Not in the plan.
One decision changed doesn't change one's destiny, however. How each of them is to reach the fate destiny has in store for them is a bit peskier, though...
In this AU story, Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli are captured by the orcs trekking across Rohan and struggle to return to their task. There's action and adventure, suspense, not too much angst, and hopefully an enjoyable story for all. Feedback is welcome!
This story won First Place in the MEFA Awards!
Thanks as ever to the tireless beta, Thundera Tiger!

Answering the Call
This is a series of AU vignettes in which each member of the Fellowship hears the call of the Ring -- and answers it. My take on the big What-If. Varying degrees of angst, drama, action, and perhaps a little more angst. This series won First Place in the MEFA Awards quite a few years ago now. This idea brewed in my brain for a long time before I finally got it out of my head and onto 'paper.' It would never have happened without my beta reader, Thundera Tiger, and I can't thank her enough. Without her guidance and encouragement, this story would never have seen the light of day, nor would I have considered posting any of my writing. There will be one vignette for each Fellowship character, following the prologue. I hope you enjoy! Cover art by Reuben Flounders, flickrComplete
The Captain of Gondor (A LoTR/Aragorn fan-fiction)
"I swear an oath to protect my people, to serve my people and to fight for my people, until I am released by my lord or death do take me" What does it mean to be a soldier of Gondor? As the first female Captain she was revered by many, loved by few and hated by some. Her only goal in life was to fight bravely for her people just as her father once did. She is known throughout Gondor and beyond as a great warrior but what becomes of her when she is banished from Gondor? She spends her days wandering the wilderness until she receives a strange letter which could change the course of her life forever. *All original plot lines and characters belong to J.R.R Tolkien*Complete
Witch: Aragorn
(Y/n) (L/n) has been on the run her whole life. Where she is from, she is considered a witch. Gondor would not welcome her any longer. She was a nuisance to society. Cast aside, she runs from her troubles into the adventure she never thought she needed. And there, she meets someone who accepts her as she is. I do not own any of these characters except (Y/n). All rights go to the amazing creator, J.R.R Tolkien and the creators and owners of the movies. Also, (Y/n)'s powers come from the MCU, so the ideas I get from there belong to the writers of Marvel.Complete
