Stories. AKA Those One Things My Family And I Wrote When We Were Bored.
The Story Of The Ring
Prologue
The tower was destroyed, yet in the rubble the hobbit Frodo found another Ring. When he grew old and went to the Gray Heavens he passed the Ring down to his only daughter, Rogeri, not knowing that it must be destroyed. This is that story.
On a dark night a tall-cloaked figure moved quickly towards the home of the lone elf. When it got there it knocked and after a few minuets turned to leave when the door creaked open to reveal the dark interior.
Upon entering the thing lowered its hood, suddenly a dangerous voice issued from the darkness, “Who are you human, why are you here?”
The young human tried to humor the voice by saying, “My name is Anowan and I seek refuge for the night, who and what are you?”
Swiftly a lamp was lit and Anowan could see it was an elf that she had angered, thinking she was done for she was amazed when the elf lowered the bow that had been pointed at her.
The elf replied, “My name is Rivendel and as you can now see I am an elf. Hm you look much like… never mind you look as though you have not eaten in a while, come, eat and rest.”
The next morning Anowan said that she would travel to the elfin city, Rivendell. The young human though did not know the way so she asked if the loner would come with her. Even though Rivendel was a loner she agreed to come along to make sure that Anowan didn’t get into any trouble.
Several days out into their journey they were joined by an elf boy and a hobbit maid. The boy said that they were heading towards the elfin city for the counsel. The human asked if she and her companion could join them for they were going the same way.
The elf boy said, “My name is Knives and the hobbit is Rogeri, what are your names?”
The human replied, “My name is Anowan and my silent companion is Rivendel, so what is this counsel about?”
“I am not permitted to speak of it out side of the city, why do you ask?” responded Knives.
The ranger just said that she was curious about it.
Many days passed and they finally got to the legendary city. When they did they went to the meeting immediately and found that the Ring of Power had been found. After the counsel the people decided who would go to Mordor and destroy the ring. Rogeri decided that Anowan, Knives, Rivendel, Gandalf, Loien, Maron, Gimli the dwarf, and Gimli the human would go.
Several days later they were off. Soon the ring was retuned to Mordor and destroyed. And every one lived happy immortal lives… or did they?
About The Story Of The Ring
Ok. I'm going to try to keep this simple and straight forward. Yes this is a parody off of Lord of the Rings. This is my family's version of the story, we decided that there should have been more to it so we created a whole new set of characters and a new struggle in the familiar world of Middle Earth. We used to have documents about all of the Character's adventures and their personalities, but I don't know what happened to it. So this was as long as I could make the story while still sticking to our idea. If I find the missing data then I'll work on making this longer.

About The End Of The Dark Lord
Alright. The End Of The Dark Lord is a mixture of S.H.A.D.E. and Star Wars. Basically it's what S.H.A.D.E. would be if it was placed in outer space. Once again my family and I got bored so the authors of the family got together and created this play. We acutally have a bunch of records of when we used to visit S.H.A.D.E. ...Hm... Where are they?
The Lord Of The Rings
Prologue
The Alien Charm
It was Halloween and I had just returned home from collecting my loot and was sitting in front of the TV sorting through my candy, which I had dumped out onto the carpet. Glancing down from the show, I noticed a small charm and I reached out to pick it up for a closer look. As soon as I touched the strange charm it leapt up off of the floor and attached itself to my neck, I completely freaked out and was about to scream but I suddenly began to feel dizzy. I looked around and saw that I was spinning extremely quickly. As suddenly as I had started spinning I stopped. I stood up to find myself in a strange place; I looked down at myself and saw that I was no longer in my costume but in strange robes. I felt the weight of a cloak and many hidden weapons; I realized that I was wearing the charm that had brought me to this beautiful but silent wood. I looked into the distance and saw a house up in a tree; it was as clear as though I was right next to it. Judging by the rundown appearance I decided that the tree house was abandon years ago. I then knew that if I was to stay here that I would need a home so I ran as swiftly as the wind to the abandon home to claim it. As soon as I got there (it took only a few minutes) I found that I had guessed correctly, the house was abandon. Just then I realized that I was extremely tense with apprehension, why would a house be abandoned like this? Why would someone just leave it?
That’s when I heard, “‘Tis a she-elf, a warrior by the smell it, and a loner as well.”
I did not like the sound of the voice and my every instinct screamed at me to hide but my feet would not obey, I was confused ‘she-elf’ what did that mean? Is that what I was? The creatures that had spoken did not leave me any time to ponder the meaning; they were coming at me with a net in between them. It dawned on me then that I was in the place called Middle Earth and these creatures were orcs the dreaded messengers of the Dark Lord Saron himself. Wasting no time I drew the bow and an arrow from the quiver on my back and fired it at one of the orcs.
I rapidly placed and fired another arrow, the orcs never stood a chance. I destroyed them before they could react. I left my enemies lying where they had fallen and went into the tree house. It was dark; just how I liked it. I felt my way around the place and then went back out into the bright morning air. Descending from my new home I cut off my enemies heads and stabbed them onto sharpened sticks.
Many years passed and I grew very little but learned much about the woods and survival for I did not know yet but there would be a time when I would help destroy the Evil One and become Rivendel the Night Elf. Then one night while I was making more arrows for my quiver something happened; something that would change my life forever.
This is that tale…
Chapter One
An Un-welcome Visitor
On a dark night a tall-cloaked figure moved quickly towards my home. When it got there it knocked and after a few minuets turned to leave when the door creaked open to reveal the dark interior. Upon entering the thing lowered its hood, suddenly my irrate voice issued from the darkness.
“Who are you human, why are you here?”
The young human tried to humor me by saying, “My name is Anowan and I seek refuge for the night, who and what are you?”
Swiftly I lit a lamp and Anowan could see I was an elf, angry for being disturbed. Thinking she was done for she was amazed when I lowered the bow that I’d been pointing at her.
I replied, “My name is Rivendel and as you can now see I am an elf. Hm... you look much like… never mind you look as though you have not eaten in a while, come, eat and rest. Just leave by morning.”
The next morning Anowan said that she would travel to the elfin city, Rivendell. The young human though did not know the way so she asked if I would come with her. Even though I was a loner I agreed to come along to make sure that Anowan didn’t get into any trouble.
Several days out into our journey two male elf warriors and two hobbit maids joined us. One boy said that they were heading towards the elfin city for the counsel. The human asked if we could join them for we were going the same way.
The eldest elf boy nodded and said, “My name is Knives and this is Lorion, the hobbits are Rogeri and Maron, what are your names?”
Anowan replied, “My name is Anowan and my silent companion is Rivendel, so what is this counsel about?”
“I am not permitted to speak of it out side of the city. Why do you ask?” responded Knives. The ranger just said that she was curious about it.
Many days passed and we finally got to the legendary city. When we did we went to the meeting immediately and learned that the Ring of Power had been found. After the counsel the ring bearer decided who would go to Mordor and destroy the ring. Rogeri decided that Anowan, Knives, Gandalf, Loien, Maron, Gimli the dwarf, Gimli the human, and I would go.
Several days later we were off, the first place we went to was weather-top, the old watchtower. There we stayed for a few days, on our second day at weather-top the Ring Wraiths came, the company tried to defend the ring bearer but Rogeri was stabbed by one of the vile creatures. That was the end of the beginning. I cannot tell the rest, for Anowan will, but I can tell you that the ring was destroyed and will never be seen again.
About The Lord Of The Rings
This is a partial of one of the old records. I think the rest of it was burnned, I'm not sure though so I'll keep looking. Anyway, I hope this gave you an idea about how Rivendel lived and what she was before she became the Night Elf. My family worked very hard to help create our parody off of Lord of the Rings and so they decided that the authors of the family should create character backgrounds and profiles as well as let them have their own stories. So this is part of one of these background stories.
The Story with No Name
'Why should I fight', he thought, 'they have already killed my family.'
A soft snarl rose up inside of him, 'Why should you lay down like a dog to these people', It roared, 'you need not fear them. They should fear you. Exact your revenge upon they who destroy your family.'
His eyes turned fully red as he looked up, the snarl escaping his lips. As the men laughed (for who thought that a six year old boy could hurt anyone?) he tore through the ropes that bound him. He fought using the only weapon they had not taken from him, his anger.
The darkness receded slightly as he looked over the freshly wrought carnage.
"What have I done", he whispered in horror, "I am a monster."
He turned and fled into the woods to live in exile. But, no matter how hard he tried, as the years passed the number of people he killed grew and his eyes stayed red constantly.
He turned ninteen and the deamon inside of him began to disgust him. He threw himself into fights against impossible odds. He always won and there were never any survivors. Never again did he walk into a village teeming with people. They all cowered in his shadow.
One lonely night he decided he had had enough. He pulled out his dagger and, ignoring his deamon's screams of fury, drove the dagger into his stomach.
How long he lay there he did not know. As he gradually came to though he felt a warmth near him. His eyes opened slowly then closed again quickly as he looked directly into a fire. But it wasn't the fire that made him afraid. It was the girl sitting opposite of the fire watching him.
"Leave me to die", he cried in anguish, "you don't know what I have done."
There was silence for a while then he felt cool hands on his face and heard a voice more melodic than any music he had heard before.
"But that would make me no better than the men who turned you into this."
His blood red eyes opened slowly to meet the light blue ones gazing at his face with understanding and compassion. Then she smiled and the red faded from his eyes as the deamon inside of him locked itself away. For now…
