Chaper 2
The castle was made of pure white marble and it shimmers when the sun caches i at he right angle. It was very very big and it consisted of a lot of turns and sharp corners. Ayah was leading the way when another elf suddenly jumped in front of them blocking their way. This cause all of them to jump in surprised.
'Oh, Miro.' said Ayah. 'It's you. You surprised me.'
'I always surprise you.' he said dully. Then he looked a her companions, and thought that it was the weirdest set of friends he has ever seen. An elf, two men, four hobbits, a wizard and, surprisingly, a dwarf. Miro looked at Ayah with puzzlement.
'Relax, I know them all.' said Ayah. 'I'm just going to meet up with father.'
'But he just left remember?'
'Oh yeah. I forgot.' she said.
'Jorio is taking over.' said Miro, then looked at Gimli. 'You know how he hates ... um ... dwarves.'
Ayah frowned. 'Why did Jorio take his place? Should it not have been me or at leas Jinorio?'
Miro nodded. 'I argued, but father wouldn't hear it. Said you were to, well, um -'
'Go on say it.'
'Irresponsible and that he may see the whole city in ruins if he let you rule for a while. And Jinorio was too busy with other things.'
Ayah stared in astonishment at Miro, and she saw in his eyes that he was telling the truth. She never was in good terms with her father, and this kind of statement only made her anger for him become greater and larger. She dearly wanted to prove that she can rule the city and she wasn't irresponsible and that she can take care of herself, she just wasn't given the chance to show it.
She gave Miro one las look and turned the opposie way they're going.
'Where are you going?' asked Legolas.
Ayah stopped and looked at all nine of them. 'Well, there's no point seeing Jorio today because he'll just say that you all should get out of her because og the dwarf ... he detests them for no reason. So I have to hide you for a while.'
Gimli frowned. 'There is no need to do that -'
'I insist.' she interrupted. 'Now follow me.'
Before she walked off again, she glared at Miro. 'No one knows about this understand?'
'No one knows what, sister?'
'Good.'

They walked a good deal away from the castle.
'Just making sure that Jorio doesn't suspect anything.' Ayah said.
In the end, they stayed in a roomy cottage near the outskirts of the city. They weren't complaining either, it was very roomy and all nine of them fit just fine.
'Legolas.' Ayah said.
Legolas turned to her. 'Yes?'
'I have to introduce you to Jorio. ost of the citizens saw you already when we were walking to the castle. He'll suspect something if I didn' inroduce you.'
Legolas nodded, showing he understood. He looked at his companions and Gandalf nodded.
'Go on.' he said.
With that Legolas followed Ayah out of the door.

'Tell me something, Ayah,' said Legolas. 'Why can't we show a wizard in front of Jorio?'
They were walking towards the castle and some elves were watching them.
Before Ayah can answer, an elf jumped in front of them. Ayah and Legolas, acting on instinct, fitted an arrow in their bows and pointed their bows directly at the elf.
The elf backed away a little. Ayah relaxed and set her bow down. Legolas did the same. He thought that if Ayah trusted this elf, he might as well trust him too.
'Never jump in front of me like that.' said Ayah.
The elf shrugged. He had long blonde hair, a bit longer than Legolas'. He had brown eyes and fair skin, like most elves. He looked at Legolas, like he was asking wha he was doing here with Ayah.
'This is Jinorio (yi no rio), my older overprotective brother.' Ayah said, when she saw the glare Jinorio was giving Legolas and Legolas looking like he was asking himself if he was going to talk or not. 'Jinorio, this is Legolas.'
Jinorio relaxed visibly. 'The Prince of Mirkwood, eh?'
'Mirkwood? The Prince?' said Ayah. She turned to her brother. 'And why didn't you tell me that, huh dear brother? Why didn't you tell me that the King of Mirkwood had a son?'
Jinorio looked at his sister. 'Would you even care if I did tell you?'
'No.'
'My point exactly.'
Legolas cleared his throat. Ayah and Jinorio turned to him.
'Anyway, we better get going. Where are you going Jinorio?' said Ayah.
'To our cottage at the outskirts. Why?'
Ayah and Legolas froze. 'No. You can't go there.' said Ayah
'Why not?' asked Jinorio.
'Well, um, see, because ...'
'Because I'm staying there!' said Legolas
Ayah nodded rigorously. 'Yeah, because he's saying there.'
'Oh, ok then.'
'So you're not going?' said Ayah hopefully.
'I am but I' no going to sleep there.' said Jinorio.
'But you can't.'
'Yes, I can.'
'No.'
'Yes.'
'No.'
'Yes.'
'NO!'
'Try and stop me!'
With that, Jinorio started running towards the outskirts of the city. Ayah was a very fast runner and so was Legolas and they tried with all their might to catch him, but either Jinorio ate something which mad him faser or he was exra fit, because they could no catch him and they were too late.
Jinorio had seen the Rest
of the Fellowship.
