So it's a short little one...that leads up to the first chapter of the Hobbit fanfic that will be up shortly! Yes, I've been writing it for a few days, getting back into character's minds. Since there's been a tie on the poll for some time, I will break it, thus Vivian and Rowan will be the man characters (since you guys are fond on them). At the end of the chapter, stay tuned for a summary for the Hobbit fic and most importantly the title! Thanks so much to everyone who has read, reviewed, and added this fic to their alerts and favorites. It means a lot to me to find that my story gets up to a hundred hits per day! I do not own Lord of the Rings!
Journey to Minas Tirith
Éodred and Éadlin were running amok through the halls of Meduseld. Both children had wooden swords in their hands and Rowan was trying to collect them. They were leaving for Minas Tirith very soon. Mirél entered the room and caught Éadlin. The girl frowned and handed the sword over to the older woman. Éomer entered the great hall with Éodred in his grasp.
Rowan picked up the skirts of her dress and entered the room. Éadlin struggled out of Mirél's hold and ran toward her mother. The small girl clung to her mother's dress and Rowan smiled.
"I'm afraid your swords must stay here while we're away," Rowan mentioned and Éomer looked down at his son. The boy looked at his sword and then up at his father.
"You will be able to play with other children in Minas Tirith," Éomer added and Éodred's face lit up. He was excited. There weren't too many children his age around and he was tired of playing with Éadlin.
"Will there be girls my age?" Éadlin wondered, looking up at Rowan eagerly.
"No, but I know your brother will let you play with him," Rowan assured her and then looked to Éodred.
Mirél went with the children to help they get ready, leaving Rowan alone with her husband.
"I hope Gondor isn't in trouble," Rowan mused as she took a seat at one of the tables in the great hall.
"Aragorn wouldn't allow the children to travel with us if it was. This is merely diplomatic. There are emissaries from other regions that are interested in an alliance," Éomer explained and Rowan nodded.
"I suppose it's a good thing Aragorn has a son and Vivian is bringing her children," Rowan noted, recalling the look on Éodred's face.
"Are you packed to travel?" Éomer wondered and Rowan grinned.
"I wouldn't be out here if I was," Rowan replied and stood. She approached Éomer and kissed him, "I should help the children, though. Éodred will try to hide his sword in his belongings."
So...the title of the Hobbit fanfic aka sequel to Head over Heels is...In Over Your Head! Here's the short little description to go with it!
Summary: Years after coming to Middle Earth, Rowan and Vivian are settled. Just when they think their adventuring days are over, they are drawn back into Middle Earth, but 60 years into the past. With the help of a group of dwarves, a hobbit, and Gandalf will they be able to get back or will they be trapped in the past forever?
Ooooh! It will be posted in the Hobbit section, but if you can't find it look on my page! I hope I do it justice! It will be mainly movie-verse with book because there are still movies that have yet to be seen. Also, I highly doubt there will be any dwarven romance (possible flirting, though). Hope you enjoyed!
