Cree placed her hand on top of Fainu's left hand. "Fainu, I will follow you to whatever end I may meet. I am not afraid as long as I have you by my side." Cree could feel her cheeks begin to burn. She knew she was blushing. For one moment she was trying to be serious, yet she couldn't. Deep down inside the child was wanting to come out. "Fainu, I have faced many perils without you and believe me I would rather face one hundred years of death than a day without you ." She knew she had faced a long time without him. Cree could feel him in her heart.
So that was it, Cree would go with Fainu. She didn't care if it meant she might die. The only thing she ever wanted was to be with Fainu. Cree could only wait now for the day she would depart from the Shire. She would miss what friends she had made. The one thing she wouldn't miss was all the bad memories.
