King and Lionheart
Summary:
Thick as thieves in all sense of the word. Arielle and Bellamy were a force when they are together, but separated they have become lost. And Middle Earth is a dangerous place to be lost in. OC/Thranduil.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything or anyone from the Hobbit/Lotr series. I also don't claim to be most knowledgeable about the lore Tolkien has created, and I must warn all the super canon Tolkien fans out there, that this story won't completely follow the mannerisms and customs of the Elven culture. I'll try my best, but in order for this to work, I need to make it a little AU, and a little OOC. Also I appreciate corrections in the elven language. There aren't many reliable translators or dictionaries.
There are a lot of other OC pairings in the story, I apologize for that. There are very few canon relationships that I like in the Tolkien universe. One I particularly don't like is Tauriel's forced romance with Kili. They made her character just for a love triangle with Legolas, and to me, I felt it was a great waste of her amazing character, seeing as she is the only female elf in the movies who is a warrior. Anyway, there are a couple definite pairings I want to do, though the main one IS Thrandy and the OC Arielle. I do plan to do an OC/Kili, but it's going to be brief. And I have been toying with the idea of Thorin and an OC, but I'll see how you guys feel about it before I make it a reality.
Anyway, I have already written the first five chapters of this story, and they will be posted within a couple of days of each other. I Ask that you please review, so I know if people are actually enjoying the story.
I also want to point out that this is the first time I've written a LOTR fanfic, so I ask to be easy on me with criticism. I'm not an expert on the lore, as I've stated in the Disclaimer.
PROLOGUE
"Yesterday night, one of London's oldest jewellers, Durin & Sons, was broken into. However, the only things that were stollen were the soul contents of a single safety deposit box in the safe rooms in the back.
"Investigation is still going underway, but Chief Police Anderson has stated that the video footage had been tampered with prior to break in, implying it was a planned heist. The items in the safety deposit box were two antique rings that have been with the Durin & Sons family for generations, though the items' value have not been mentioned, it is still yet unknown why these particular items were the only ones stolen.
"There has been an increase of robbery and break-ins in the last five years, most suspected to be by the notorious thieving duo, Graves and Griffin. The break in of Durin & Sons is heavily suspected it to be the work of Graves and Griffin, who are still on England's most wanted list.
"Bellamy Graves, formally Bellamy Martin, is an adult white male of twenty-nine years. 6'3" tall, muscular built, with dark blonde hair and green eyes, and various tattoos on his arms and neck. Arielle Griffin, formally Jane Smith, is an adult white female of twenty-seven years. 5'5" tall, slender build with dark brown hair and blue eyes, with no visible tattoos or markings. Both Graves and Griffin were raised in the former Wool's Orphanage in downtown London, and therefore have no known relatives.
"If you have any information and whereabouts of these two, please contact the number below. Graves and Griffin are considered to be dangerous, likely armed, and experts at deception. Please be cautious and keep on eye on your home and belongings."
Character Casting will be posted in the next chapter. I will also be posting the link to the Pinterest board of all the pictures in my profile.
Happy Readings xoxo
