By Your Words
Chapter 1
All that is gold does not glitter
"No, Las, I'm serious! That mountain will have much more game than we can ever hope to catch down here!"Aragorn calls to his companion from the bottom a tree. Legolas chuckled down at him.
"Estel, we aren't really on a hunting trip, we just wanted to get away from your devious and ugly excuses for elves you call brothers!" Legolas retorts humorously, launching himself off of his perch. He thumps down on top of Aragorn and pushes the man down to the ground. The future king just happens to flop down in mud, splattering not only himself but also the golden-haired elf with the sticky, brown substance.
"We're a mess, aren't we, Las?" Estel inquires as he helps his friend off the ground. The elf chuckles lightly, rubbing at his golden hair with a slim, dirty hand.
"You know, your hair used to glitter in the sun; I always loved that it did that; but now it's just ugly!" Aragorn playfully swats at his friend's head. The elf expertly ducks away from the well-aimed cuff.
"Well, yours never did." Legolas retorts wittingly.
"Well, I'm no elf." Aragorn says back while aiming another cuff at the elf's head.
"All that is gold does not glitter." The prince mumbles to himself. The man doesn't register the quote, but he does hear it.
Not my favorite chapter, ramble, stupid and rather short and pointless if you ask me... sorry, story will get better, promise!
