Candice woke up in an odd place. She got out of a bed and looked around. The walls
of this room were made of wood, as were the floors.. and the roof. There was a dresser next
to the bed she slept in and no sign of any lighting. She went to the window at her bed-side
and found she was in a tree.
Candice backed away from the window. "Trees mess up my hair, I don't like trees...
my eyes get watery and red and I look all icky~."
Just as she finished her sentence the door opened and in walked the tallest, most
feminine man she had ever seen. He had long flowing blond hair and beautiful blue eyes.
(If you couldn't tell, I fancy this creature...) He was wearing leather boots and the
nicest clothes she had ever seen. earth tones and not at all dirty.
"Ah, you are awake now. I would say you needed a bit more beauty sleep, but that's
alright." said the beaufiful creature. He walked to the mirror on the dresser and began
brushing his long hair.
"Excuse me? I need more..Beauty Sleep?! Just who do you think you are, you...
pointy eared..." she looked at him. "beautiful, freekish creature..."
"I, oh oddly dressed one, am Legolas Greenleaf. I am NOT a freak. I am an elf, a
beautiful elf, as all elves are." He turned and looked at her. He smiled and walked out
the door. "I brought you something to eat." he called to her, "it is called lemas and it is very
filling. I think you will enjoy it." Legolas came back into the room carrying a silver tray.
But it wasn't really silver. It seemed purple, and green, and so many other colors.
"Woah woah woah, wait a minute, wait a minute. Did I just hear you say you're an elf?"
Legolas nodded. "And where exactly am I?"
Legolas replied simply, "In my house." Candice gave him "the look". Legolas cleared
his throat and said(As though he'd said it many times before, "You are in Mirkwood Forest,
a beautiful place full of beautiful creatures." He gracefuly walked towards the bed and set
the tray down on it." "i would offer you more than this if I jbew more about yourself..."
Candice walked over to the bed, sat on the end of it and put her head in her hands.
"So, let me get this straight. I'm in Mirkwood Forest, sitting in a room with an elf named
Legolas." She looked up to see him nodding,
Legolas smiled and said, "And what about you. Who am I sitting next to?"
"Well, my name is Candice. How I got here I haven't a clue. I really wish I knew."
She looked at the food and turned her head.
"I brought you to my house." Candice looked up at him in shock. "You were asleep
outside our village. Other elves were watching, making fun of those odd clothes you are
wearing."
Candice looked down at her Britany Spears shirt and Rainbow pants. She was in her
pajamas. She grabbed a blanket and held it up to her.
"I felt sorry for the way they made fun of you. I decided to bring you home with me
until you awoke. How you got to Mirkwood I wish you could tell me. Adventures are fun and
great to hear of." Legolas stood up and looked proud. "I actually am going an one myself.
It is very important." He went over to the mirror. "But I don't know how I should do my
hair."
Legolas was wearing his hair down, the wind from the window blew it gracefully.
Candice walked over to him. She held out a pony- tail holder. "I usually wear my hair half
up, half down. It makes my face look more mature. You can try it and look like me... if
you want." Legolas accepted the ponytail holder and tried what she told him.
"Hmmmm... you are quite good with the beauty styles... even though you have wretched
taste in clothing... I could use you along the way..." Legolas got this dreamy look on his
face. I found out later that he envisioned Candice making him the sexiest thing around.
Candice started brushing her blond hair. "Where are you going. Wait, what am I
doing? I need to get home. I need to get back to California. I need to find out how I got
here. If mom finds me not home she'll kill me. I'm going to miss Dawson's Creek!"
The elf but a hand on her shoulder. "I wish I could tell you how to get to... Cali...
back to your home. Perhaps someone in Rivendale can help you. I am travelling there and
I am sure someone there will be able to help you. I am supposed to travel with a few others,
well, they uhm... I am not too fond of them." He smiled. "They think they are better looking
than me."
Candice blushed. "I would love to come with you. To get help of course. I need to
see what happens to Dawnson."
"Of course." Legolas walked towards the door. "We are leaving tomorrow, I must go
and get some things needed for the trip. I shall return." He winked and left the room.
candice sat on the bed. "I am sooo never reading LotR before bed again."
