Hey again! This is my third chapter! Already! In this chapter Legolas is 16, Thelion is 23 and Laeriel is 13.
Disclaimer: I still don't own LOTR. Maybe I'll rob Tolkien's house… nah, that won't work. I only own Thelion and Laeriel.
Chapter 2Legolas was practicing archery, to the delight of his little sister, Laeriel. She loved the feeling of delight when he got bulls-eye.
Laeriel was astonishingly beautiful. She had waist-long golden-brown hair that had a healthy shine to it, and big, thoughtful, soft brown eyes. Elves from all over Mirkwood wished to get at least one glance at the Princess.
Laeriel cheered in delight when Legolas got another bulls-eye. He smiled to himself; his sister's cheers gave him a confidence boost.
"I'll stop now, or you'll cheer yourself hoarse" he called out. He still hanged around Laeriel, even though Thelion beat him up every time.
"Oh, but, Leggie" she whined "I was just starting to make a dandelion crown for myself, and it is better when you're practicing!"
"Is that short for: Legolas is the best archer in all the Middle Earth?"
"No! It's short for can we go to see the twins?"
" Ask Ada." Legolas jumped up the closest tree and with the elves' quietness walked toward the castle.
Laeriel sighed and continued to work on the dandelion crown. She knew Legolas thought her kind of strange lately, but how could she explain that she was in love? No one knew she was in love but herself. She sighed again. She couldn't bear be without him…
She knew he was too old for her, he was 24, but he was very sweet.
He had long dirty blonde hair. His eyes were hazel, but that color was good on him.
She just wished that she didn't look foolish in front of him; she fell in love with him at fist sight, Berthilion…
Berthilion was training as hard as he could; he heard Laeriel and Legolas was going away soon, to Rivendell, and the Captain of the guards said whoever works hard enough could escort them to Rivendell, and Berthilion planned on being one of the five, just so he could be near the beautiful Princess…
Legolas went through the front gate. He was afraid, very afraid of his own brother! He knew Thelion was going to beat him up, Thelion always knew, Knew when Legolas was with Laeriel.
Legolas was right. There Thelion was, standing there, evilly frowning.
"Hanged with Murderer, little brother?" Thelion asked, his emerald green eyes meeting Legolas's icy blue ones. Legolas sighed; Thelion asked the same thing every time and Legolas answered the same thing every time.
Thelion punched him without waiting for an answer. He punched him again and again. Legolas didn't even wince: that scene was old for him. He yawned when he felt himself going unconscious; that was old too.
Berthilion hurried to his room; the Captain appointed him one of the escorting guards! Now he could be near Laeriel, the sweet young Laeriel.
He went near the great hall when he saw somebody lying unconscious, which was rare for an elf. He hurried along to the great hall when he saw who it was. Berthilion visibly paled; how could that person be unconscious?
Lying on the ground, unconscious, was the Prince.
Thranduil was still sitting in his office. He was reading some garbage from Lord Elrond. Again! Couldn't Elrond see that he had his own family troubles? Like Thelion being evil and away most of the time, Legolas being beat up by someone and Laeriel being all strange and dreamy?
He sighed and put away the letter. Again. The letter would have to wait (again).
Thelion looked up at his Master. He had volunteered to work for the Lord; the lord was weak but would become stronger in time.
"My siblings are going to Rivendell, My Lord," he said trying to get more hate into his voice. The Lord liked it when Thelion hated his siblings "should I come with them to spy, My Lord?"
The Lord chuckled slightly.
"The more information, the merrier" he said 'Now go"
Thelion stood up. He grinned evilly at the Lord expecting his usual farewell. The Lord raised his hand.
His Black Hand.
So, that's it for Chapter 2. I would like to thank the reviewers:
Felarof: Thanks! I knew I had to be a little more descriptive.
MornieGalad: They are poor aren't they? Legolas getting beat up, Thranduil desperate…Thanks!
Well, that's all the reviewers. Only 2! You have to review! I'm getting desperate here! Thanks to the readers! Only you still have to review!
Bye,
