Mel felt a wave of relief. "Oh - are you from my world too? I mean - how did you - um, what I'm trying to say is, what's going on? Are there more people like us?" She went closer, a little apprehensive of the horse - she'd never been on one before and they always scared her. As she drew nearer, she saw another figure on the road. She took a step back.
"Who's there?" she called nervously, trying to see through the dim twilight.

"I'm Eruraina, but call me Erura, or Eru. It's faster." she said, then noticed Mel's reaction to the horse. She jumped off, and hoped the horse wouldn't run away when she walked over...

EDIT:

"OH, Hey Elegost..." she said...

A woman came up to Éowyn S. and spoke:"Who are you? I haven't seen you here in Edoras before, your clothes are strange and you look quite lost! Come with me, dear, and let me get you something to eat and to drink!" Wordless, Éowyn S. followed.
Now she was sure that she has to be dreaming, because how else could she have come to this wonderful place of Edoras, her most beloved city?
When she entered the woman's house at least she recognized all people watching her and glaring at her clothes. On the other hand, she was glaring at them and wondered, how on earth she could dream so perfectly every little detail in Edoras...

Mel grinned shyly. "That's right," she said, getting a little bolder. "I'm Meldawen, but people usually call me Mel or Melda. Do either of you know what's going on? I'm not complaining, but I don't often fall into Middle-Earth in the middle of the day." She smiled. "I think I saw Gandalf, too!"

"um... I went on a trail ride through these woods around the stable I ride at, and ended up in Fangorn forest." Eru said, she turned to see that Chyanne hadn't ran off.

(I edited it Elegost!)

"I was at my computer, and my mouse died, and so I was trying to navigate the internet with my keyboard and something weird happened and then I was here! And Gandalf said he'd see me in Rivendell but I obviously can't go ther dressed like this and I was worried because there might be Nazgul around and -" she paused to draw breath and then realized she was talking quite a bit. "I'm sorry, I'm babbling. It's just weird and awesome!"

_________________

Mel nodded. "Sounds good to me, I was beginning to do more looking over my shoulder than walking. Have either of you seen Nazgul?" she paused and grinned apologetically. "And - um - I don't mean to be rude, but I am freezing and do either of you have any extra clothes?"

_________________

"Camping, at dark? Espacially with the Nazgul out, and only two of us have weapons. I don't even know how to use this sword..." She said. Eru turned to grab Chyanne's rein. "Well, Mel, you said your headed tward Imladris? Your going the complete wrong way."

Eru took out the red Blanket, seeing that Chyanne stopped shivering. "here," she tossed it to Mel...

Mel took the blanket gratefully. "Thank you." she blushed at Eru's comment. "I really have no sense of direction, but I kinda figured it might be better to head for Bree than set out for Rivendell dressed like this. Camp sounds good - but as far as sparring, I've never even held a sword. I don't think I'm going to be much good at this. Do you know how to make a fire?"

(Let's get things moving, standing around and talking is all very well but it's good if the story goes somewhere!"

_________________

"I don't even know how to sparr... I don't know the right moves!" Eru said, unshething her sword, and looking at the blade... She put it back.

(Lol okay - whatever works!)

Melda ate quickly. She hadn't realized how hungry she was. "Thank you, Elegost, " she said with a smile. "I'm glad you came a long when you did, I'm pretty clueless - even more than I thought I was. Have you any idea why this is happening? I mean, why we're suddenly here, rather than being at home doing french homework and wishing it would stop raining?"

_________________

"no... french homework. For me it would be summer, and it wasn't raining..." she took the saddle off of chyanne, and traded the bridle for a halter, and a lead rope, which she held the end of. Eru grabbed a peice of paper from her saddle bag, and unfolded it and layed it out by the fire. "This is a map I drew, It's as accuarate as possible. If Bree is over there, and I came from the misty mountains here, then we should be here..."

Gwenneth laughed at Pandora's comment. "I keep thinking I'll wake up eventually...
Look, Gandalf is coming back."

"This lady says she does indeed know the two of you," he said. "This is Anduril Nova."

"You made it here, too!" Said Gwenneth, giving Anduril a hug. "Fancy we met up so early." She grinned.

"Anduril!" Pandora shouted and embraced Anduril in a hug before looking back at Gandalf who already began walking.

"I wonder who else we will meet here, strange indeed." Pandora laughed linking her arms with Gwen and Anduril before the three of them followed Gandalf through the fields of Hobbiton.

"Hey look the scarecrow..." Pandora pointed at the lonely scarecrow in a field of dry grass.

“Elenriel are you ready?” her mother called. “Soon.” she responded back as she put on her rose-pink halter style dress. With that she raced out of her house only to swept up by a giant windstorm. The gust of wind surrounded her, lifting her from the ground. She screamed for help but to no avail. She was completely at the mercy of the windstorm. “Release me!” she cried. As if heeding her command, the wind dropped her in Mirkwood. “Ow! You could have done it gentler!” she yelled at no one in particular as she brushed herself off. “Go to Rivendell!” a strange yet powerful voice commanded her. “What?!” she asked aloud but received no answer. Okay, I have officially gone insane. First a whirlwind, now voices in my head, what next? With that she drew of breath of wonder as she glanced at her surroundings. Gone were the familiar surroundings, replaced instead by the beautiful yet wild forest-giving testament to its elegance yet danger.

She was lost in her thoughts until a screech snapped her out of her reverie. “Yrch!” she thought to herself. By Eru, what have I gotten myself into? Hearing the shrieks behind her, she quickly raced through the woods, stumbling over tree roots. This is just great, of all times to be weaponless, and lost. I wish I had a machine gun, or some throwing stars-heck anything but these stupid branches! she thought bitterly. The screeches became louder and she soon found herself surrounded by a small group of orcs. They looked at her menacingly, glad to have finally found prey. “I’ll show you.” she muttered to herself as one moved to attack her. She dodged one attack and grabbed a sharp branch, poking the orc in the eye. “Get back!” she yelled as the orc screamed in pain. The other orcs charged at her then only to be felled by a group of arrows. What now? she thought fear creeping into her. “Are you alright young maiden?” a voice spoke from behind her. “Yes. Thank you for-” she stopped short as she recognized the identity of her rescuer. “Prince Legolas?” “How is it you know my name?” he asked sternly. “I am from a distant world called Earth which is perhaps parallel to you own, perhaps not. More than that I can not explain.” “She’s lying.” one of the guards whispered to Legolas. “We should can not trust her.” Legolas raised his hand for silence as he dismounted and approached Elenriel, gazing intently into her eyes, as if testing her. “Your eyes are clear. Strange as it seems I believe you speak the truth. Tell me, what is your name-or am I to keep calling you maiden?” “Elenriel, my prince.” “Very well Elenriel. My companions and I are traveling to Rivendell. Would you like to join us?” “It would be an honor.” she responded. And a relief. At least now I know I won't be wandering aimlessly around Middle-earth. she thought to herself. With that he whistled and a white mare came galloping up. “This is Turtegiel. May she serve you well.” After Elenriel mounted, the group set off for Rivendell. I hope I meet some of my friends along the way. she thought. As exciting as this day has been, it just keeps getting stranger.

(Elenriel your first thought in the second paragraph: By Eru?)

"Well.." Eruraina looked around at all directions. "theres weather top, about a mile in that direction... So Imladris would be straingt to the West. If we wait for the sun to rise, we could fallow the sun rise. I'd say we're seven days from Rivendell..." she said, standing up, then looked around, then at Mel. "could you teach me how to use a bow... I sort of know how to use it, but can never aim it right..."
