Blood thirsty: HI! I got lotsa nice reviews! I don't care if they're long! In fact, it's nice! Thanks so much! I'll get to thanking you all at my bottom authors notes.
Legolas: Yeah! Lot's of people want to buy me!
Aragorn: That really doesn't make you look good you know.
Legolas: Shut u-* gets hugged by blood thirsty *
Blood thirsty: NO! I will never let go! I promise! I'll never let go! * cheesy titanic music plays *
Legolas: O.o; START THE STORY! PLEASE!
Aragorn: Uh, chapter 6 now… please enjoy!
'please, let them pass' Legolas hoped as a few guards ran past him. He smiled. Finally, fate was taking pity him. As soon as they passed, he followed the corridor he had switched onto. It had been about three hours since that egotistic elf-gollum-wannabe had been caught up in that 'lovers embrace'. He still couldn't help but snicker at that. He found a flight of stairs that led down into a dark corridor. He light-footedly walked down the stairs as to not make any sound. That corridor was just as conceded as the other ones. The only thing that gave out light was two torches that light up a mosaic of the princess. Legolas rolled his eyes. He faintly heard the sounds of voices, but he recognized them as Gimli's and Miranda's. 'Ew! I'll never be able to look her in the eye again… marrying her… what was I thinking?!' He scolded himself for that nasty thought. He froze. There was another voice. An annoyingly high pitched one. Before he could think of anything, he dashed behind a huge pillar that held up the ceiling of the dark hallway. He sat for a few moments, and decided he would be more stealthily. He crept quietly for about ten minutes, until he reached the source. It was a dungeon cell, and it held Miranda and Gimli, and outside were two guards and the princess.
" What do you mean your not his wife?" She said, dangerously quiet. Miranda had a disgusted look on her face.
" Him? Oh please. When he was around 100 years of age, he wanted to be a girl!" She snapped back. 'Doh! Note to self… find out Miranda's past and spread rumors.' He thought to himself.
" That, and the fact that he is completely immature." Legolas was fuming silently. 'note to self. Feed Miranda to orcs when you get the chance.' Princess Allura snickered, then frowned.
" So he lied it me. What man could resist me? What elf could resist me! Me and my pale features my…" she continued to name off her 'good' qualities. She left, muttering something about 'that elf will pay for his insolence…'. Her guards followed as well, both looking unfazed. Legolas then hopped out of the shadows.
" Must you tell everyone about that?" He asked her angrily. She merely smirked.
" From what it sounds like, you are rather taken by me… hmm?" She said with a sly grin. He slapped his forehead in frustration.
" You were the first female name that came into my head. I couldn't very well say I was wed to Gimli, now could I?" He snapped. Gimli then looked somewhat freaked out. Legolas found a small piece of metal, and stuck it in the lock. Within a half-an-hour, he had unlocked it, and they had set out to find a way out of there.
Aragorn was not happy with the situation. Merry and Pippin had gotten into a fight, and where being quite immature about everything. The last thing he needed was to be lost. Of course he was lost. With Merry and Pippin fighting like that, he was bound to loose concentration. That didn't matter, because they all knew that this trail was not the one that the elven king was on. A sound greeted his ears. Footsteps. One set. Very loud and ungraceful at that. He drew his sword, and for once, the two hobbits took their minds off arguing and followed his lead. Their daggers where un-sheathed. Finally, not one, but three figures emerged from the bushes and trees.
" Legolas? What are you doing here?" He shouted. He was already ticked off by the elf's first choice, and now he was going back on it.
" I am here because I was kidnapped by an odd kingdom of elves." He said, trying to calm the furious ranger down.
" He was my husband in there. Or would you rather be the wife?" She sneered. Legolas looked ready to strangle her, until some sort of battle horn was heard in the distance.
" GO! NOW! We have to get out of this place! I hope Gandalf and them will be alright!" Gimli said, and with that, they broke into a run, soon followed by Aragorn and the hobbits.
Gandalf was walking in peace. Frodo and Sam were talking quietly, and giving the wizard some peace and quiet. He was snapped out of his thoughts when a battle horn was blown.
" I suggest we leave the woods now. If Legolas and Aragorn have any sense at all, they will leave too. I just hope Legolas has his head back on." Gandalf directed at Frodo and Sam. They all began to charge through the forest. They made it out after about an hours worth of running. All of them were exhausted. Frodo nearly collapsed, and Sam did. Gandalf leaned against a tree for support.
Legolas and the rest had decided to go to the nearest town and meet Gandalf there. He hoped they wouldn't skip the town though. They had nearly gone into town, until they noticed a piece of parchment nailed to a tree. It had a description of a group of two elves and a dwarf on it. It also said that the two elves were not well aquatinted. It said that 'if found, please let the guards of "Allura palace" know, and they will be taken away. Reward is 50 pieces of gold for each member of group found.' Legolas let out a cry of defeat. Miranda sat on the ground. Her lips were pursed. All she wanted to do right now was go home. Her whole body hurt. All she wanted to do was sleep. She probably would have made it into the dreamworld had it not been for Aragorns sudden burst of happiness.
" I have found a way we will be able to rest in the town, and wait for Gandalf undetected. Though I don't think our elves are going to like it…"
"No, and no. For the last time. I won't do it." Legolas stated. He was talking as if the idea was preposterous. Miranda for once, was in agreement with him, and basically said what he said.
" No, you are insane to think I would do that." She cried out.
" Please! Don't do it for us, but for your king! Legolas, do it for your father." Aragorn said with false sincerity; hoping it would work on the two elves. They both looked at their feet for a while, then reluctantly agreed. They started their walk into town.
" I can't believe I'm doing this." Muttered Legolas. Miranda hissed something in elvish at him. Hand in hand, they walked through town, hoping they looked like a real couple. A few towns' people eyed them carefully, then smiled at the two 'loving' elves. Legolas put on the classic cheesy smile, and hoped it was convincing. The rest of the group, (especially Gimli) was having a hard time suppressing their laughter. They found the nearest inn, and went to the bar tender.
" If an old man with two hobbits walk in, could you tell them Mr. Ba- er, Underhill has arrived?" Aragorn asked politely. The tender eyed them suspiciously.
" don' ya think 'tis a 'tad strange that a group wit' o' number o' two elves an' one dwarf have come into town just as princess Allura has ordered a number o' tha' group to be found?" He asked. Legolas spoke first.
" Yes, but me and her are wed, and in the message, it said they were not well aquatinted." He said. The bar tender looked at them suspiciously again.
" If I was wanted by that ol' bag, I would probably fake bein' wed to de' dwarf o'er there." He said, pointing at Gimli. " 'Sides, those elves probably did somethin' to upset 'er. Prove ta' me that this ain't no façade." He said, glaring at Legolas and Miranda. They both had the fate of their group on their shoulders. Would they? Or wouldn't they? 'you can't hesitate dumby!' that little voice in Legolas' head shouted at him. So without thinking, he grabbed Miranda and before she could say something at all, he kissed her. The bar tender nodded his approval, and sent them upstairs. Both elves had a look of confusion on their face.
" That was a feeling I'd never think I'd experience." Legolas said dreamily. " It felt like…"Miranda had a look of anticipation on her face."… it felt like my face was just sucked on by an orc. Now, if you'll excuse me, I think I'm going to wash my face and mouth until I bleed." With that, he stormed out to find some place to 'freshen up'. The elf gollum wanted to smack him hard across the face. 'you'll pay for that… king-to-be…' she thought vengefully.
Legolas: What is WRONG with you women!? And please! Let me go already! I can hardly breathe!
Blood thirsty: hehehe, that was fun… thought I'd go back on my promise of no romance huh? Well, nope, I though that was kinda funny myself.
Legolas: Well, considering you wrote it…
Blood thirsty: Shut up. Anyway, shout outs to my reviewers! I forgot one from last chapter! I'm sorry!

Yeah! Thank you so much for your reviews, I thought they were nice! That one long review was a major ego-booster! But they all are! Thank you so much! :D
Legolas: what am I? Some sort of inanimate object? "I'll lend him to you?!?" what's with that!?
Blood thirsty: Get a life elfy, anyhoo, these chapters are coming out so soon cause I have lotsa days off! :D please review, but like I said, I dun demand them, so if this story gets so bad that you can barely stomach it anymore, then a) don't review or b) you can flame me. I hope it doesn't come down to that though.
