Title: Return to middle earth

I stood in the dark gloomy forest,leaning against an old creaking tree.Ivy hung from the branches and swept across my face as an old warm breeze blew through the forest.A whistling sound caught my attention and I ducked as fast as I could as an arrow struck the tree where I had just been standing.A chunk of bark fell from the trunk and the tree groaned.I looked up startled and concentrated in the direction in which the arrow had came.No one was there.I cast out my senses and could feel no presence near.Maybe there was a glitch in my power,us elves couldn't always be right surely?
I crouched down low and crawled a few paces forward when a beam of light suddenly filled my senses.My eyes were blinded and I could see nothing but a beautiful white light.Then a familiar voice sounded and shook the clammy air of the forest.
'Rise Roisin,daughter of elves.'His voce rang in my ears.I stood without question and brushed the moss and leaves from my cloak and clothing.
'Gandalf?is that you?'I said shakily.I stood for a moment and there was an eery silence.'come now Gandalf,this is to dark an hour for us both to play games,show your face unless you are not who i say you are.'
With a wave of his staff Gandalfs kind,wise and calm face came into view,yet he had changed.
His hair was snow white and no longer grey,frizzy and untamed,his kind face looked more wiser and his stature had straightened slightly and his clothes changed from a shabby grey to a blinding white.I smiled in awe at the reborn Gandalf.I bowed low and rose again.
'We have work to do,we must locate the heir of Gondor,Aragorn and his two companions;Legolas the elf and Gimli the dwarf.'
I nodded.Then I remembered why I was on the forest floor before.
'Gandalf,an arrow was shot at me before you came,yet I felt no other presence only that of the arrow coming towards me.'
Gandalf raised his large bushy eyebrows and nodded.
'Strange and dark times these are Roisin,but I beleive the shooter of that arrow was Legolas the elf, a skilled archer of Mirkwood.He is extremly skilled and was most likely aware of your strange presence and the thought never entered his mind that another elf of his kindred would be here at this hour.'I nodded in agreement and we walked on until I felt a presence,an elf a man and a dwarf.
'We are drawing close,very close.'I whispered.
