Thank you for that review Angie! It made my day! Yes I will continue this story if you want me to. I am glad you liked chapter nine cause here comes chapter ten!

When Legolas awoke, he was lying in a bed and instead of his ripped and dirty cloths he was whereing a light night shirt. He looked around. Nothing seemed familiar to him. "Where am I and how did I get here?" Legolas asked himself. His memory started to clear and he suddenly remembered where he was. "I was under Saruman's spell. The same one that he used for Theoden, well at least I think the same one. Legolas got out of the bed and saw that his old cloths were there except they had been mended. He looked in the mirror at himself. He sure was a sight to see. His hair was in a tangled mess, which it had probably been for the past few days, and his skin looked pale grey. He combed out his hair and got changed into his cloths, and went out to find the others.

There were many people that he passed, some of them had been in the kings hall when Saruman had taken control of Legolas. Those looked at him a little frightened, probably thinking that he could come and attack them any second, but Legolas only smiled and passed them. Also one of the reasons for them looking at him like that was because of the color of his skin, and how tired he looked. But Legolas didn't pay attention to the faces they made at them and only passed them without saying anything.

He found the others in the dinning hall with Theoden. Aragorn greeted Legolas with a smiling face. "I am glad to see you awake my friend. You must have been exhausted from what happened yesterday. It must have been very hard to fight off a spell on your own," Aragorn said. Legolas smiled.

"But I didn't do it on my own," Legolas said turning to Luthien. "Without Luthien's friendship, I don't think I would have been able to do it. She has helped me a lot these past few days." Aragorn smiled.

"Well come and join us at the dinning table. Eat something, it will do you good," Aragorn said putting his arm around Legolas. Legolas nodded and went with him to the table. Gimli came to him smiling under his big beard.

"Legolas, laddie!" Gimli exclaimed wrapping his arms around Legolas in a tight hug. "I am glad to see you're doing fine. I was afraid that after what happened yesterday that you would have gone to join Saruman in the night." Legolas laughed and said, "Well the good thing is I didn't, and I am glad I didn't because otherwise I would have failed you all." Gimli patted him on the back. "It's good to have you back laddie." They walked over and Legolas took a seat by Luthien. She smiled in greeting.

"Good morning Legolas. How was your rest?" she asked.

"I don't even remember falling asleep, or much before I fell asleep. All I can remember is fighting Saruman as he spoke to me in my head trying to turn me to the evil ways," Legolas answered. Luthien nodded.

"After something like that, I wouldn't blame someone for not remembering some things. But I am glad you did not chose the evil ways," Luthien said.

"Well I almost did. He told me that if I joined him he would give me the cure for my illness. But now I think I might know what the poison is, whatever the cure. Ever since I have been poisoned I have been feeling tired, hungry, and thirsty. I have had t eat regularly. I think the poison makes me, mortal," Legolas said saying it slowing and gasping out the words. Luthien gasped.

"But that could mean..." she trailed off. Legolas nodded.

"Yes, the reason I am so weak is because I am dying. Not of a wound, or even sickness, but actually dying. I have been on this earth for a long time, much longer than any mortal has ever been," he said. Luthien looked shocked. A tear rolled down her cheek.

"But Legolas, you can't be...you can't be...dying! What would I, we do without you. You have been a light to this world, if you go, all lights will go out," Luthien said. Legolas sighed.

"I don't if that is it for sure, but either way if we don't find a cure I will most likely die. I don't like saying it, but I know it's true. My body is not fighting off the poison like it should, which leads me to think that it is a mortal illness." Luthien shook her head, she was at the very brink of crying.

"Should we tell Aragorn? I think it would be best if we did," Luthien said. Legolas nodded.

"Yes, I think we should. I'm tired of hiding everything from other people. I think I should tell him," Legolas standing. He walked over to Aragorn and whispered in his ear, "Aragorn can I please talk to you? I have something very important to tell you." Aragorn nodded and rose from the table. Gimli looked up at them with a questioning look. Aragorn just shook his head, and he and Legolas went off somewhere quiet.

"What is it Legolas? You seem to be nervous," Aragorn said. Legolas inhaled deeply and sighed. "Aragorn, I believe that I might know what the poison is. Since I got this sickness, I have been feeling tired, I have had to drink regularly, and have had to eat regularly. Elves don't hungry, tired, or thirsty normally, only humans. And my body hasn't been fighting off the poison like it should since I'm an Elf. So it has lead me to think that, this is a mortal illness." Aragorn raised his eyebrows.

"What do you mean by mortal illness?" Aragorn asked.

"It means that I am becoming mortal. Once the poison has gone through all that it needs to, to make the changes, I will be mortal, and I will...die," Legolas said forcing the last word out. Aragorn's eyes widened.

"Legolas this cannot be true! How could poison do such a thing? Unless," Aragorn paused.

"Unless Saruman did it. A magic potion no doubt. But I don't know for sure, and if it is, I'm going to hold up until Sauran is destroyed," Legoloas said, determination in his voice. Aragorn put his hand on Legolas shoulder. "You are a good friend and a loyal companion Legolas. I would hate to see you leave us. I will be able to tell later but for now, why don't you come and have something to eat. I know that you haven't in a while." Legolas nodded.

"You're right, now that I think about it, I am hungry. And while am still alive, I want to enjoy what's good, even if it is only for a short while," Legolas said. Aragorn smiled and put his arm around his Elf friend as they went out. Luthien met Legolas as they went out.

"So, what was his response? Does he know the cure? Please tell me he does!" Luthien said pleadingly. He sighed. "I'm sorry Luthien, Aragorn doesn't know a cure. But there is a slight chance that it isn't a mortal illness. I could possibly just recover from it. Aragorn will examine me later and decide if it is really what I think it is."

"I wish this hadn't happened to you. I don't even know you as the real Legolas," she said. Legolas smiled. "Maybe you will get to meat the real Legolas sometime." Luthien smiled back, and he started eating. Later after they had eaten, Luthien and Legolas went out to walk.

"It's so peaceful. I will be sad when the battle starts again. Battle makes me feel trapped. I like to be free," Luthien said. Legolas turned to her. "I want to be free from this sickness. I've had it for months, and I keep asking myself why it hasn't killed me yet. But perhaps the Valar have different plans for me. Maybe they want me alive."

"Yes maybe you will live. I hope you will. I don't think that I would be able to contain my grief if you left us," she said. Legolas nodded in response. Luthien suddenly stopped Legolas and turned in front of him. "Legolas, can we go somewhere else where there aren't so many people. I need to tell you something."

"Okay, we can go over there, it doesn't look like there are any people over there," Legolas said. Luthien shook her head and they went over there and sat down. Luthien looked slightly nervous.

"Legolas, when I first met you I thought of you as most princes, stubborn, proud, like that. But then I saw something else in you. And suddenly you started to mean more to me than just a friend. It was like, like."

"Like love?"

"Yes, how did you know?" Luthien asked.

"Because I have felt the same way. You were a help to me when I lost hope, if it hadn't been for you, I wouldn't have been able to fight Saruman away. You love has helped keep me alive. And I had decided that I was going to stop keeping secrets from people, that also meant my love for you. I'm not going to hide it anymore," Legolas said. Luthien smiled. There eyes met, and suddenly there lips touched. Right then, they didn't care about what was going on around them. All that mattered now, was their love.

Aw! So sweet! Luthien and Legolas finally kissed! You all knew it would happen sometime didn't you? Well I hope you liked this chapter. Plss review.
