Chapter two.
The silence was eerie, and it seemed to linger in the air for longer than Lúthien and Larien would have liked. It was starting to get uncomfortable and Larien shuffled slightly, causing the leafs beneath her boots to crunch.
"We cannot just stand here in silence" Legolas took a step forward, standing in front of the two girls "Where did you come from, it is not a hard question to answer" Lúthien took a step back from him, feeling nervous. "Or perhaps your spies, we do not take kindly to spies" Boromir drew his sword twisting it around while he spoke. Aragorn raised his hand slightly gesturing to Boromir to lower his sword "Perhaps they know not of where they came from? What are your names? We do not intend to hurt you, I give you my word" Aragorn looked at the girls before his lips drew into a sincere smile. Larien looked back at her friend giving her a slight nod before turning to face the three men.
"I am Larien Telrúnya, and this is my close friend Lúthien Anwamanë" Lúthien gave a nervous wave, taking a step forward to stand next to Larien.
"Well Larien, Lúthien. I am Aragorn, the elf is Legolas and this is Boromir. So is my theory correct? You know not of where you come from or how you got here?" Aragorn seemed nice, even if he did tackle Larien to the ground but he seemed to be acting rather rationally right now which seemed to be making the two confused girls relax a little more.
It was actually Lúthien who spoke this time, she was normally the quiet one out of the two but she seemed to have a little more confidence right now which made Larien smile "You theory is correct, we cannot recall anything before this night. We woke up on the ground opening our eyes to the full moon" Legolas kept his eyes focused on her and Boromir was staring at Larien, he obviously didn't trust them it was all he has been saying for the past five minutes.
"Boromir will you please stop repeating every word, I know you do not trust us but I got that the first time you said it" the three men stared at her in confusion, even Lúthien seemed rather stunned "Larien, he hasn't said anything of the sort…" Larien turned to face her friend "Of course he has, can you not hear him?" Lúthien looked at her, shaking her head slowly, she wasn't crazy but she was certain he said it.
"This woman is insane; Aragorn is blind not to see it. Fool" Larien pointed at Boromir her mouth wide "He did it again! But he said something different! He said I was crazy and that Aragorn was blind that he couldn't see it" she paused and looked at Boromir "Then he called you a fool…" Boromir clutched the handle of his sword tightly, narrowing his eyes at her,
"I never spoke any of those words" Aragorn looked back at Larien and Boromir, his eyebrows raised "Larien I promise you nothing has been said" he walked closer to her, looking straight into her eyes as she gazed back into hers "I wish to try something, if that's alright with you" Larien nodded slowly, slightly confused,
"What is it you wish you try?" Aragorn smiled and looked at her,
"Just watch my lips and tell me exactly what I'm thinking" Larien watched his lips and looked back up at his eyes "How… Did you do that?" Aragorn laughed and Legolas smiled moving closer to Lúthien "I didn't do anything, you did" Larien looked at her friend before returning her gaze back to him "I do not understand? What did I do?" Legolas looked at her "You read his mind. It is a rare gift you possess Larien"
Everyone was looking at Legolas, but Aragorn was still looking right at Larien. Boromir coughed and Aragorn looked at him, taking a step back "Well now we have sorted that out, we best get moving" Lúthien and Larien looked at him "Aragorn, perhaps it would be a good idea to take them with us. They are vulnerable and it would be careless to leave them" Legolas looked at Lúthien and smiled a perfect smile, causing her to stutter slightly and look away. Boromir was the only one to protest, but that was no shock,
"Take them with us? Are you insane? So she is a telepath but that does not mean we have to burden ourselves with such ludicrous lies! How do we know they speak the truth?" Boromir moved to where Aragorn was standing placing a gentle hand on his shoulder "My friend please… How do we know we can trust them" Aragorn just turned his head looking at him "We don't but we cannot leave them here, it's far too dangerous." Boromir sighed and walked away, leaning against a tree sulking.
"Well its decided your coming with us" Aragorn smiled at the two girls and turned to walk "We need to get out the forest, there are dark forces that linger in the shadows" Larien walked forward following him before turning around to see why her friend wasn't following, Legolas stood in front of Lúthien waving his hand in front of her face "Lúthien?... Are you alright?" Lúthien was staring at something, like she wasn't quite with them. It was only until Larien placed a hand on her shoulder that Lúthien blinked. The next few words leaving her lips were something they didn't want to hear, four words that struck fear in their hearts,
"The darkness is coming…"
