I have been meaning to write a lord of the rings story for a long time now. This is about le-enolas and the hobbits. Le-enolas is Legolas's sister. I made her up and no stealing. There will be most of the fellowship except for Frodo. Tobiano is a hierarchy of shadowfax and is a unicorn. It's my story I can have unicorns in it!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Pippin and Merry rode along the path in the forest. They had set down the law that no hobbit was to cut wood from the forest making it a brighter place to ride. Lately there had been a disturbance, the forest had been tensed. It was waiting for something. Merry was upon his horse Jewel and Pippin on none other than socks. ~A/N: All credit for the names go to lindelea1~ The Hobbits were riding out to see Sam. It had been a while.

They were out on no matter of visitations now; they were there on business. Sam as mayor had reported trees being cut. Nonetheless a farmer reported a brutal slaughter of livestock at the edge of his field. His cows were taken and only a few skeletons remained. The forest was no doubt on edge, though the hobbits seemed to pass easier than most.

Merry and pippin finally came to the edge of the town. The view never ceased to take their breath away. Today was no acceptation. The little farms gave colour to the fields though it was dominantly a lush green. There were cozy little homes embedded into the hills. Then in all its glory stood the hall of where the center of town was. The market place scurried with business nearby.

Merry and Pippin rode down to the great hall where mayor Gamgee awaited them. Merry and Pippin raced over and as they passed a few people stopped to tip their hats and wave them on. They quickly reached the stable behind the hall where eager stable boys waited to take their mounts. Merry and Pippin handed them off hesitantly and left for the meeting with Sam in the hall.

As they eagerly rushed in they saw Sam sitting, lost in thought. He was smoking a bit of pipe weed. He was very still and looked almost troubled in thought. If you looked closely you could see the burden of the war upon him. Tough he hid it in speech he left it blatantly open now. As a boy announced their presence Sam snapped up and smiled. They all hugged warmly in greeting.

'So what's this I hear about the trees'? Merry started off.

'The terrible forces in the forest have cut them down' Sam answered.

'Well Sam it has been terribly long since I have heard your voice so lets sit for merriment before we move to serious businesses. ' Pippin cut in.

It had been long since they had met. The rest of the fellowship had been too lost in businesses to reunite. Many had lost almost all communication. Some only communicated through messengers. That is how Merry and Pippin became good friends with Legolas's sister. They knew a lot about le-enolas now. So much she would run out of her tales and tell of Legolas's childhood antics. Even with Pippins wild imagination he sometimes had trouble trying to imagine Legolas doing some silly things.

Merry and Pippins stay went by uneventfully to say the least. No more attack sights were reported. Merry and Pippin deemed it safe to travel back to tookburough. Sam agreed to come with them to visit for a bit. He put his eldest son in charge with the orders to report any sightings to him immediately. So we in depthly continue our tale on the ride home.

Sam, Merry and Pippin chatted gaily about darker times. Times when it was dangerous to even be riding like this. A time when they dare go out as foolish Hobbits seeking adventure. The time, of the ring. At that moment a shadow passed over them. They all stopped in fear, though the forest seemed calmed around them. Then a tall figure appeared out of shadows before them. They all thought a ruffian until they saw a horn on the horse.

'How are you my friends' the figure said with a laugh.

Merry, Pippin and Sam breathed a sigh of relief at who it was.

'You could have given us old hobbits all heart attacks!' Merry exclaimed. Sam who did not le-enolas as the others exchanged a few polite words. That's when Tobiano decided to speak

'You're going to give this old unicorn a heart attack for slowing his heart to much standing and talking' He impatiently stomped.

'Please forgive him; you know how awful his temper is.'

'Its not bad, you just move to slow for an immortal!' Le-enolas rolled her eyes and slipped off Tobiano.

'Go run, I shall walk' 'Good riddance!' Tobiano replied and ran off.

' So how did you know to come in our time of need' Pippin asked.

'I got it, as you may say, straight out of the horses mouth. I have taken the liberty of informing strider, mirthrandir and my brother with Gimli. They will be here in a few days'

'Great!' Pippin exclaimed.
