THE HEART OF LEGOLAS
CHAPTER 1

Here I am - this is me
There's no where else on earth I'd rather be
Here I am - it's just me and you
And tonight we make our dreams come true

It's a new world - it's a new start
It's alive with the beating of - young hearts
It's a new day - it 's a new plan
I've been waiting for you
Here I am

Here we are - we've just begun
And after all this time - our time has come
Ya here we are - still goin' strong
Right here in the place where we belong

It's a new world - it's a new start
It's alive with the beating of - young hearts
It's a new day - it 's a new plan
I've been waiting for you
Here I am

Here I am - next to you
And suddenly the world is all brand new
Here I am - where I'm gonna stay
Now there's nothin standin in our way
Here I am - this is me

"LEGOLAS GREENLEAF I TELL YOU TO SLOW DOWN YOU RIDE LIKE THE WIND!"
Legolas stopped his horse "What's wrong old timer? Can't keep up? The Belroc take it out of you that much?" Legolas laughed has Glorfindel caught up.
"Leave it be Legolas you have made your point you are the better elf"

When they got there, there was a few orcs dead.
Walking round Glorfindel looked at the armour and frowned "What is it?" Asked Legolas
"The armour, you see the marking?" Legolas nodded "This eleven writing is that of Mordor but how can it be unless...." Glorfindel stopped and looked at Legolas.
"What?" Legolas asked
"You hear that?" Glorfindel asked
"Hear what? I don't hear..." Legolas stopped "Yes I do it's a child"
Both elves followed the sound.
Glorfindel was just about to call Legolas away when Legolas called him.
When Glorfindel made his way to him, Legolas was knelt at the side of a woman holding the baby in her arms.
"please--take--my--baby--He--is--Aragorn--son--of--Arathorn--and hair--to--the thrown of Gondor--please--promise me he--he--he will be--safe"
"You have our word" Glorfindel said "but I can take you both to Rivendale there you will be healed and rested and...."

YEARS LATER

Between the day that Legolas and Glorfindel found the baby Aragorn years had passed them by.
Years since the war of the ring and although age has not touched Legolas it had been unkind to Aragorn.
He had ruled the white city well and been a good king, but now he was at the end of his time. He was dying has was Arwen her heart broken.
Legolas walked up to Aragorn's room has the kings guards let him pass.
He looked at his friend, his bother, no longer the person he knew but a old man, and Arwen aged also Legolas made his way to his friends side.
"Legolas?" He heard the soft voice of Arwen.
"Yes I am here"
A smile came across her face "My bother, not by blood but how good you have been to both myself and Aragorn"
"I can not bear to see you both like this it's not..."
"It's the life I took Legolas I knew what I was letting myself into please do not think ill of me"
"I would not think ill of you never Arwen it's just hard for me.
"I know Legolas come see him"

He walked and stood at Aragons side Aragon opened his eyes.
"Ha my father-bother I prayed to see you before the end this is one war you can not flight with me nor can I win and we have been in a few wars have we not?"
"We have but the war of the ring is what we will be remembered for in song and in tale" Aragom smiled.
"Legolas my friend you are the one to tell them myself and Arwen have a favour of you years ago you took me to Rivendale and with Glofindel saw my upbringing now would you do the same with my daughter, Celalea."
Agaorn took a breath to help him talk. "In Human years is is a woman in the peak of her life but in the age of elves she is still a child. I made a promise to Elond that when I passed away she would choose the life of the elves please forfill this promise for me teach her the eleven ways"
"I will keep your promise" A smile came across Aragon's face has he fell in to a forever sleep "Be at peace Aragorn son of Arathorn king of men".

"You are very caring Master Elf I'm sure you will be able to raise her you have helped me with my own son have you not?"
"Yes but in woman years she is a woman, I must find her and ask her to come with us has last time I saw her she was a very small child. Will you wait here? When I return I will show you to your room."
"Of course Legolas I may walk the grounds for a time" Legolas nodded and went to find Celalea.
