Hello to everyone out there, this is a fan fiction piece about Legolas the sexiest character ever created. I don't own him or anything about the lord of the rings books, that was all created by the genius JRR Tolkien. I own only my ideas and the character Elwin. Hope you like the story and please review.
Chapter 1
The forest was dark and mysterious, and many strange were cloaked by the night. Prince Legolas walked unafraid, for these were the woods of his people, and he knew every tree and shrub here. He had taken a walk after the royal supper that his father had presented him with upon his entrance to the kingdom. As good as it felt to be home he missed the adventure and the friends that he had made on the battlefield. Legolas knew that it was all peaceful under the new rule of King Elessar, but somehow his soul was still restless.
Legolas had enjoyed watching the sunset, away from the confines of the palace, and was now calmly walking through the dark woods. Even though he had only been in the palace one day he began to feel annoyed by all the people who followed him everywhere, and all the mindless gossip. Legolas cleared his mind, and walked in a dream. His senses were alert, but his mind wandered to all the ends of the earth.
Legolas should have kept up his guard. There was a stranger in the woods, with rather nasty intentions. Legolas alive was worth a great sum of money, but simply his head removed from his shoulders was worth more. The stranger was following Legolas until they were far enough away from the palace where his scream would not be heard. Eventually there would be a search party sent to look for the prince, but they would only find a headless body.
"Why did you leave the feast", called Gimli the dwarf, bursting through the undergrowth. Legolas was startled, but he smiled at his friend.
"Already the palace life feels constricting. Perhaps we should go to the mines that you wanted to show me sooner rather than later."
"I would be honored to do so elf," Said Gimli. "But not until you have had a good long visit with your folks." Legolas turned and rolled his eyes, but Gimli continued. "You owe it to them, they haven't seen you in a long time and I know that most will be moving into the undying land soon. You ought to make peace with everyone before they leave." Legolas and Gimli sat on a fallen tree, staring off into the night sky.
"You know, from what I have told you, that there will never be peace in my family. I am an embarrassment to them, my wildness being one reason, and my refusal to settle down with some nice she-elf another. There is no point in trying. My father only welcomes me because he hopes that I will find someone to love in the city. I must tell you that the chances are slim, for all everyone here cares about is gossip, fine clothes, fine food, and having a good bed partner. They never have anything else on their minds."
"Well perhaps you might find your self a pretty lass," suggested Gimli, "And dress up in some nice clothes and go to a few parties. Wouldn't it be worth it just so that you can have peace in the family?"
"Perhaps, Gimli, perhaps," sighed Legolas, "It just doesn't feel right."
The stranger listened to the conversation and her mind whirled trying to figure how to complete her mission. She hadn't expected for the dwarf to be there. Killing the dwarf with an arrow would be simple, but then Legolas would automatically be on his guard. The stranger didn't think that she could take on an angry elf, even with her fighting capabilities. She would just have to wait for an opportunity to present its self.
Legolas and Gimli sat in confortable silence for a long time, each lost in his own thoughts, and the stranger waited.
