Until We Meet Again

Summary:  The first meeting of Aragorn and Legolas is not quite what one would hope for.  Legolas is suspicious, and Aragorn is closed-minded.  Can they bring together the elven lands or will they suffer death at each other's hands.  (note: does not follow the books pre fellowship) br brbr

Legolas tilted his head towards the tree tops.  He could have sworn the sound had come from this direction but either whatever his prey, it had long since fled.  brbr

Aragorn sat back on his heels waiting for the stranger to make his move.  He knew it to be an elf but from which land.  He was no where near any friendly territory but that did not mean that another being sneaking in the darkness could just as likely be friend as foe.  Until he knew otherwise though the best he could do was assume foe.  At nearly 40 years of age his lithe frame allowed him the strength of a grown man with the flexability to choose this tidy nest to wait for his hunter to show himself.brbr

%Where have you gone% Legolas searched the trees above.  He saw a flash of movement the edge of a dark cloak being pulled from the brush.brbr

Aragorn knew he was in trouble when he felt the blade slide along his shoulder coming closer to his neck than he would have desired.brbr

"Are You friend or foe" Legolas breathed.brbr

Aragorn glanced over his shoulder and anger flashed through his eyes.br

"Foe" "Foe" They replied simultaneously.br
