"Do you think we should tell her?" Marcie asked Legolas quietly. "Yes, it would be wise to," he replied. "Very well," said Marcie, when suddenly Colby walked in. "Hey Marc, can I talk to you for a minute?" Colby asked. "Sure. I'll be right back," she said as she turned from Legolas to the door. Colby pulled Marcie into the next room and asked, "So, who's your guy? What does he do?" "Umm, well…" Marcie replied. "Oh come on Marcie! It can't be that bad! It's not like he's the Prince of Mirkwood or anything. Ha!" Colby suddenly burst into laughter after she said this. "Heheh, yah, well actually, I was just about to tell you that, because he IS the Prince of Mirkwood," said Marcie. Colby suddenly stopped laughing. "Oh, heh, come on now Marc, you can't be.." said Colby. But the look on Marcie's face said it all. "Oh my gosh," Colby said. "You're not joking." Marcie slowly nodded. "But, wait a minute," said Colby, "that means that…Strider, really is who he says he is?" Legolas had just walked in, and he said, "Yes, he is Aragorn, son of Arathorn, and heir to the Throne of Man." "Whoa, where have I heard that before?" Colby said.
