Chapter 51: Boxes, bets and rooms.
Legolas woke up in a bed, he listened as his head caught up with the rest of him.
'I shouldn't be in a bed, I should be on a couch with...' he sat up and looked around the room, he noticed one other person there who smiled at seeing that he was awake.
"Nice to see you awake melamin." said Aragorn as Legolas noticed that he was there, he tapped the wall and waited a few moments as Legolas was trying to figure out what happened. Clanser Stephanie walked in with a tray of food.
"It's good to see that you have awaken." she said before she called into the hall, "Cassandra! I win!!!"
Cassandra came in and looked at Legolas, "You where not suppost to wake up for another hour!"
Both Aragorn and Stephanie chuckled, "No he was suppost to wake up an hour ago."
Legolas looked at Aragorn, Aragorn looked back and gave Legolas a 'they-made-me-do-it' look. Legolas just looked down, shook his head and chuckled. Cassandra walked out of the room as Stephanie put the tray infront of Legolas.
"How long had I been gone?" he asked as he ate a hard-boiled egg.
"Not more than a few hours." replied Aragorn as Stephanie started strightening items on the mantle.
"But I was gone for..." he started when Stephanie intrupted him.
"Time passes differently here than there." she said, not looking at Legolas, "A few days have already passed since you left."
"You know the hobbits wanted you to teach them some elvish, and they where disappointed when you didn't come back." said Aragorn, knowing that Legolas would have to find out later what happened when he left Earth.
"Where are they and the others?" asked Legolas, figureing that he could find out when he was alone with Stephanie.
"All of them have been exploring and give tours of places that they would like." said Aragorn, "The Hobbits where taken to where again?"
"The Mushroom forest." replied Stephanie as she turned to look at them, (A/N: I know I heard that before but I can't think of where I heard it from!) "Gimli was taken to the metalwork rooms as well as the treasure rooms and Crystal forest. Boromir has been testing our weapons, Gandalf and Dumbledore has been reading in one of the libaries. Hermione would be there as well, but she is with Sean playing a game of chess. The other Hogwart's students are at the Quiddich field and if I remember right. Aragorn has been getting lost in the halls."
Aragorn sent a mock scowl in Stephanie's direction, then he turned to Legolas. "I have been trying to find a front gate to this maze. So far I have found: *Deep breath* 14 bathrooms that are not part of a bedroom, 146 closets, 375 libraries, 73 rooms with 'Do not disturb' signs on the door, 19 that FORGOT the 'Do not disturb' signs, 43 of both of those both groups forgot to have silenceing charms put on the rooms, *another breath* 41 treasure rooms, 20 battle rooms, 28 indoor pools, 34 indoor forests, 342 flights of stairs, 425 different floors (A/N: how he did that with only 342 flights of stairs I have no idea!), 93 doors that lead to the same place- the common room, 45 art rooms, 58 art galleries, 87 music rooms, *one last breath* and Stephanie's room."
Legolas just looked at his friend, "And you have yet to find a way outside?"
"I think I am getting closer, most of the rooms have windows that lead outside. I think."
"What do you mean, you think?!" asked Legolas
"Well I think one the the bathroom windows had fish floating by it."
Stephanie just chuckled as she went back to arranging the items on the mantle. Aragorn glanced at the things on the mantle.
"That reminds me, why do you have different ones in your room then ours?" asked Aragorn as he stood up and walked to the mantle, Legolas joined them and noticed the little statuetts. Each of them where a member of the fellowship. The hobbits where eating, Gandalf was sitting and thinking, Aragorn and Boromir where swordfighting and Gimli and Legolas where trying to kill each other. Stephanie had to keep seperating them.
"Fine!" she said as she put Gimli and Legolas in seperate lids (A/N: think Beauty and the Beast rose lid.), "The ones in a persons room are there because they are connected some how. You are all connected by the quest of the ring."
"You are connected to Cassandra and Tay, I know that, but what about the others that where on your mantle?" replied Aragorn.
"Who are on your mantle?" asked Legolas, that was one thing that he wanted to know first.
"They are all chosen ones, and thier protectors. I really have no idea how I am connected to them. So I have no idea why they are there. In all honesty, there souldn't be anyone, and I should have the items that I have in possesion."
"What other items?" they both asked, she just started to walk out of the door and she gestured for them to follow.
"I will show you." the words where no sooner out of her mouth when her name was called down the hall.
"STEPHANIE!" she sighed and turned around, a young man that looked around the same age as Stephanie looked came running toward them.
"You made her mad again, didn't you?"
"It wasn't my fault this time!"
"I am so sure, I will help you look in a little bit. If I find it I will give you a yell, Okay?"
"Thank you!" he said in almost a pleading way, then he started to run off, but he turned back toward the group, "Why was it not ment to be? You where in charge of choosing the protectors, so why not you?"
She shook her head and looked as if this was a subject that they had spoken many times and she was tired of it, "I was what I am, you had to be pure to be a protector. Both of us know that I was not pure in any way."
She turned and walked away signifying the end of the converstaion.
"Good bye my friend, til we meet again." he called before the started on his own way.
"Which will be in ten minutes because I would have found it!" she called back in a friendly challange.
"I will find it in five minutes!" he called before he rounded a corner.
Stephanie lead the two of them down hallways and stairs to the point that both of them lost track. It wasn't long until they reached her room.
"The trick to my room, the place least expected and the hardest to find, but the most resonable place and the simpliest to get to." she said as she lead them inside.
Her room seemed larger and yet smaller than both of thier's. It had a bed with drapes and strange carvins all along it. A large book shelf and the mantle that each of them took up a wall. There where 3 big chairs and in one of them was a small boy.
Stephanie walked over to the boy and lightly brushed the hair out of his face. It was Cotten Eye Joe and it looked like he cried to sleep. She kissed him on the forehead and he woke up, he looked up at her and wrapped his small arms around her in a hug. She picked him up and let him cry on her shoulder.
"They came, didn't they?" he nodded, "Where Angelina and Pippen around?"
"I made sure they went home before it happened." he said as he shook in fear.
"It is alright, I am here and they won't come back for a long time, right?" he nodded and looked at her. She smiled and handed him something. He looked at it as if it was a lost jewel and he took a bite. He smiled and hugged Stephanie again, all of the sadness and fear disappeard and it looked like it was never there. He started to leave when Stephanie held him back.
"Arn't you going to help me explain the figurines?" she asked, he nodded and she put him on her shoulders and they walked to the mantle.
"That one is Cassi Lady! the chosen one of water!" he said as he pointed to the little Cassandra that was sleeping on a large toadstool.
"That is Tay, her protector." said Stephanie as she pointed to the small Tay as he started to sneak over to Cassandra with something in his hand.
"That is Nick, the chosen one of air." said Cotten Eye Joe as he pointed to the young man that they met in the hall, it looked like he was looking for something as well.
"That would be Carla, the one who is seppost to protect him." said Stephanie as she pointed to a young women that looked alot like her, execpt you could tell that she was pure veela. She watched Nick in amusement.
"This is Elliot, the chosen of fire." he said as he pointed toward a young man around the same age as Cassandra who had even redder hair than the Earth Cassandra had. He was juggling fireballs in his hands.
"That would be Emily, his protector." said Stephanie as she pointed to the young women that was watching in fasination. She seemed like she was pure something, but one couldn't tell what.
"Carry and David we are not sure about who is the protector and who is the chosen one of Earth. So everyone assumes they are both." said Cotten Eye Joe as Stephanie pointed toward a couple that where talking and every so often would make a flower in thier hand.
"Oakeron and Mabelina in a sense are both chosen ones and protectors of each other." said Stephanie as Cotten Eye Joe pointed at them, they where sitting on the floor having a stairing contest, "Oakeron is the chosen of Dark and his sister is the chosen of Light. They are both the last of thier race, unless you count thier uncle."
"One would expect the older sister to be protective of her younger brother..." started Legoals when Stephanie held up a hand.
"Twin brother actually, the males of that race stay a certain age in a sense until they become of age. The females continue to grow. That is part of the curse of that race, as well as a few that do not need to be mentioned at this time." They both nodded and looked around.
"You mentioned items?" asked Aragorn as he noticed a black box in one of the chairs. She looked in the direction that he was looking and picked up the box. She opened it, with Cotten Eye Joe looking in curiosity.
"Why is that in there?" he asked as she closed the box.
"Remember to never make your wife mad when you get married." she said as she tied the box closed.
"Married? To a girl? EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! (A/N: typical little kid!), I am never getting married!"
"Yes you will."
"No I won't!"
"I bet you that you will by the time you are 20!" she said as she put him on the gound.
"Okay, when I win..." he thought for a few moments, "20, 20, what would I want at 20?"
"I know what you would want." she bent down and whispered to him, "Really you could do that?"
"Yes I can, and when I win! You will lose function of what is in the box for a day and I will decide on when that will be." he nodded and they shook hands, "Nick I found it!"
Nick came running into the room, "You did? Thank you!"
He looked down at Cotten Eye Joe, it looked like he had a question. CEJ motioned for him to kneel down to his level and whispered in his ear. Nick gave him a strange look but shrugged.
"Yes it does." and with that he left with the box. CEJ left as well, in search for some kids to play with. (A/N:The James that showed up earlier was at most 19 so we know that he is going to lose!)
Stephanie turned and looked at the two of them. "I might show you two later, but I figure while both of you are here I can teach both of you how to play golf and then join everyone for dinner afterwords." (A/N: thought I forgot didn't ya?!)
They both nodded, Legolas remembered that she was going to teach him and wanted to know why. Aragorn just wanted something to do, he was bored out of his mind.

I hope that was good enough!
Ravage Blue: If you think about it, Legolas is both a book character and a Movie character. He is also a cartoon character because they did animate the Lord of the Ring trilogy back in the 70's-80's. Louis and Lestat are also concidered movie/book characters for Inverview with a vampire and Queen of the Damned. So now you are even more crowed than you thought, for the more catagories, the bigger egos!
Thanks for reading and if you feel like it, review so that I know that more than 7 ppl are reading this. Thank you!
