Disclaimer: I hope you all liked the 1st chapter! The song I used was from the film "Sense and Sensibility" I don't know who wrote it or anything... So I don't own anything except all the characters and places who are NOT in Lord of the rings. Ok, the stars (Meela's Weapon) are kind a like Chinese fighting things that sometimes are thrown at the bad guys. I tried to describe them, but just to give you a clearer picture. Happy readings and Happy Holidays!
"I am ready!" Meela proclaimed as she met Legolas in the lobby of The Galloping Unicorn. He look at her and saw a bow in her hand. " You have your own bow, Lady?" He asked surprised.
" Of course. Don't you?" She answered playfully "My father gave it to me as a gift a few years ago to stop my whining."
" Let us go then, I have a place for the lesson picked out." He said and they set out into the forest.
They walked on the path chatting all the way. Every few moments Legolas could not help himself as he gazed at her. She was wearing brown pants and black knee-high boots. Her shirt was azure and showed off her figure well. Meela carried with her a leather bag, filled with these "stars". Stars are very sharp objects with 5 points. If someone flung one at you, it was deadly. The star would stick in the person, causing deep wounds.
Meanwhile, Meela kept sneaking glances at the tall, striking elf. His blonde hair shined in the sunlight and his chiseled features made her go weak in the knees. His clothes were finely made and she knew he was someone of great importance, but she didn't ask, not yet anyways. They reached a clearing and he announced:
"Here we are, I have set up some targets earlier this morning." Legolas said as he walked over to a bunch of arrows. " We shall start with the proper mechanics" He took out his bow (which he polished for this occasion) and held it the correct way. "You try"
"This right, Sir?" she said as she copied his arm position.
"You are doing splendidly" Legolas encouraged and handed her an arrow. "Place the arrow in the bow" He said and demonstrated and watched as she tried to load the arrow.
" Like this?!" She questioned uncertainly as the bow fell to the ground. " Oops, I guess not"
"Almost, not quite." He said, as he went behind her and wrapped his arms around hers, taking her hands.
" Put the arrow right here, so it will not fall" and his hands guided hers.
"Like this?" She asked in a whispered voice. Meela turned her head to see him, their lips with only inches between them.
"Exactly" Legolas murmured, lost in her eyes and his lips moved closer to hers.
All of a sudden, the two heard something in the woods. A twig snap and both we on alert. Something wasn't right. Legolas grabbed his bow and an arrow and Meela reached for a star. She saw Legolas's eyes widened and he said "Orcs."
Out of no where, 10 Orcs jumped them and Legolas began shooting arrows like lighting. Meela flung her some stars and the deadly shapes caught 3 Orcs directly in their foreheads. 1 jumped on her from behind and she whipped around and kicked it squarely in the chest. She took the dagger from her boot and stabbed it while Legolas fired arrows left and right, killing. They finished the last one off together .
"Are those beings after you?" She exclaimed, trying to catch her breath.
"Yes, Meela, I did not know they were following Gimli and I or we never would have stopped here." He said sadly
" I am glad you did" Meela said softly, enfolding her arms around Legolas " They will not be any more for a while, right?"
" I can not tell you, for I do not know myself" Legolas answered, holding her close. "We should go back to the village, to where it is safer."
"I guess so, you should probably go to Gimli and bring him the news. I must go to the Sleeping Tree Trunk and prepare for tonight, you know clean up and others tasks." She stared up into his eyes "You will come tonight?"
"I would not miss it for anything." Legolas answered, kissing her hand.
Meela look coyly at the charming elf and met his lips with her own. The sensation was utterly wonderful. Tenderly at first, and then he deepened the kiss, all the two elves felt was passion for each other. Footsteps echoed in the woods and they broke their kiss. Gimli appeared out of the brush and looked at the two slyly.
"So sorry to interrupt" Gimli said with a chuckle " I sensed Orcs were in the area"
"We took care of them, but we best be on our guard." Legolas said
"Let's have a look around then" Gimli exclaimed and set off in the woods. " Come along, Legolas!"
" I'll see you tonight then?" Meela asked, kissing Legolas again
"Yes, till then" Legolas responded and kissed her back tenderly.
"Till tonight" Meela smiled and followed the path back into the village. Legolas watched her go and reluctantly went the way that Gimli went. He couldn't wait till tonight.
"I am ready!" Meela proclaimed as she met Legolas in the lobby of The Galloping Unicorn. He look at her and saw a bow in her hand. " You have your own bow, Lady?" He asked surprised.
