Chapter Five

            The Fellowship turned and looked at Chrissy. "She has done this before?" Legolas asked, looking worried.

            "Yeah, every time she uses too much power," Chrissy replied.

            "So she will be ok," Legolas asked, worried.

            "Yup. Don't worry, its happened before and it'll happen again cause she's too damn stubborn to listen to anyone," she said as she looked around. "Anyone know where we are? Legolas you live here, find out!," she practically screamed, still mad that she had kissed Froggie Gandalf. Legolas gave her a weird look before going farther ahead to find out where they were.

            "How long until she awakens?" Frodo asked, speaking finally as he fingered the golden ring that hung around his neck.

            "Depends, but usually about an hour," she said as Legolas returned.

            "Where are we? Legolas?" Merry asked, running to him.

            "About a day and a halfs walk from the palace," he said, seeming happy to be home even though he had a long journey ahead of him.

            "It's not safe, we need to get as far as we can tonight," Gandalf said as he appeared. The rest of the fellowship exchanged  a look, but they were used to weird things from Gandalf.

            "What about Katie?" Legolas asked.

            "Carry her. I'll deal with  her later and no you can't eat yet you fool of a Took," he said as Pippin opened his mouth to speak.

            "But-"

            "It's ok Pip, he won't let us starve and neither will I," Sam said as Legolas lifted Katie and they started off, Aragorn and Chrissy in the rear.

            They had walked several miles when Legolas sensed someone's eyes on him. He looked down at Katie and smiled when he saw her eyes were open. "So you decided to awaken," he said softly. She nodded before speaking.

            "Where are we?" she asked, tightening her arms around his neck.

            "Not that far from the palace. We'll be there tomorrow," he said as someone bumped into him.

            "Watch where you're going elf," Gimli said gruffly.

            "You ran into me dwarf," Legolas said, teasing. Gimli muttered something before walking off. "Can you walk?" he asked Katie.

            "I think so but I do need something to eat," Katie said as Legolas stopped and put her down on her feet.
