Intertwined Faith and Love for Eternity

Smooth

~Luna's POV~

I went back to normal after a minute and harassed Eclipse.

"Real smooth, Eclipse. Scaring people off and stuff," I coaxed her.

"Next time if we meet a stranger and he holds a knife to your throat I won't do anything," she mumbled.

I made a pouty face at her and sat down.

"What a day," I sighed.

"You got that right," Eclipse replied.

We sat there in silence before we heard horses approaching the stables.

The hobbits and the Man came into the stables with some of the Elven guard.

Each hobbit was ridding with an elf and the Man was by himself.

The elves left quickly. Probably to go help the other elves.

The Man spotted me and started to walk over with worry on his face.

I got to my feet wiping the dirt off my cloak.

"Is she ok?" He asked quickly.

"She is fine, yes," I said.

A look of relief flooded his face.

"The hobbit?" At this question the other hobbits gathered on the side of the Man looking worried.

"Also fine."

His eyebrows furrowed in confusion, "Who are you?"

"I am Arwen's friend," I replied.

"Your name?" He asked demandingly.

I sighed, "My name is Luna,"

"Yours is Aragorn right?" I asked him to get even.

"Yes,"

I looked down to the hobbits.

"And yours?" I asked.

The one closest to me and Eclipse proudly said his name, "Pippin, but my friends call me Pip!"

"Nice to meet you Pippin," I said with a smile they couldn't see.

I turned to the next one, "Merry," he said not interested.

"Nice to meet you, Merry,"

The next one that was the chubby one and threatened me spoke, "Sam" almost to quietly to here.

Pippin butted in, "The hobbit that got stabbed was Frodo."

"Pippin!" Merry shouted.

"What?" He asked innocently looking to Merry.

"You don't go around telling people about Frodo! Remember what happened in Bree!" Merry shunned him.

"Frodo!" I said I looked to Aragorn.

"Where is Gandalf?" I asked desperately.

I looked at the hobbits too.

"He said that he would meet us at Bree, but he never did," Sam said.

I started to worry.

I looked at Eclipse who was sharing my exact feelings.

"You don't know where he went?" I pressed.

"He never told us, my lady," Sam said.

"Never call me a lady," I told him.

"Why?" Merry asked with his arms crossed.

"Because I'm not one," I said.

I then moved past Aragorn to find Arwen.

I needed to find out what happened to Gandalf.
