A/N: This is going to kind of follow the movie. Sorry if it skips a few things or has things in there that weren't in the movie
This is going to start when Legolas is five hundred years old and is currently in Rivendell visiting Lord Elrond and his new born daughter. She is not arwen just to let you know.
ALSO: I don't own any of the characters….so don't sue me -
Start:
It was the end of the day and the sun was just setting making the sky turn pink and purple. Two men and one boy were standing in a hallway looking at what appeared to be blankets wrapped around something. They were all dressed nicely; by looking at what they were wearing you could tell they were royalty.
"She is a lovely girl," King Thanduil commented, "You're a lucky man my friend."
"Yes she is very precious. She looks just like her mother."
"We came all this way to see a baby?! I thought we would go hunting or fight in a great war, but no, we came all this way to see a baby." Legolas cried
Both of the men laugh at Legolas sudden outburst.
"You have much to learn my young friend," Lord Elrond said.
Legolas walked off a little to look out the window. He was tired of people telling him he had a lot to learn. He already knew a lot, how much more did he have to learn.
He watched the people below him, he watched as they bought their food, or just walked around with nothing to do. He then started to look at the scenery, he loved all the sites, but he did not think they came close to his home.
"Tell me my friend, have you looked into her future yet?" Thanduil questioned, "I know that the last time we spoke you had wanted to."
Legolas glanced at them, becoming a little interested. He noticed Elrond face change; he could not tell what it was about it, but it seemed as if he was sad. This was a new thing to Legolas because elves usually don't show their emotion.
"I have," Elrond said, "and she will go through a difficult journey."
This caught Legolas attention even more and he found himself walking back looking at the baby.
'How can something so innocent and little have such a difficult journey' he thought to himself.
"She will have many hardships. I am truly afraid for her." Elrond finished
"I am sorry my friend, I do not know what else to say," Thranduil commented
"I will watch over her and protect her all that I can Lord Elrond." Legolas boldly stated
Both of the parents laughed once again.
"But wont you miss Mirkwood my son?" Thranduil asked
"I will give up what I love the most for her,"
Both the parents let out a chuckle, and once more it upset Legolas.
"One day I will ask you to protect her on one of her journeys but until then I want you to go with your farther and learn you royal duties," Elrond told him.
"All right," Legolas said a little disappointed
'Do they not trust me? Do they think I am too weak, that I can not protect myself? I will become the greatest fighter, and then I will show them that not only can I protect myself, but also her'
Legolas turned to walk back to the window, half way there he turned back to face the two men. "What is her name?"
A smile formed on Elrond's face as he looked down upon the sleeping baby. "Her name is Itarildë."
