Disclaimer: I don't own any of Tolkien's creations (i.e; legolas, frodo) I only own Celebrinàrë.
Author's Note: Well. hm... Thank you for the reviews even if they arn't alot. I ain't complainin. I think if I can get 15 to 20 reviews, my next chapter will be the longest one. If not it'll be long anyways. ^.^

Celebrinàrë was awaken by Legolas who was shaking her violently. She slapped him to get him away from her.
"I'm sorry m'lady. You were sleeping so silently and our voices couldn't be heard inside your head that this was the next thing to do" Legolas said as he helped Celebrinàrë up.
"I'm sorry for slapping you for I thought I was in a nightmare" Celebrinàrë said as she brushed herself off.
The group headed off with Celebrinàrë in the front and for a while no one spoke. Celebrinàrë didn't know what to say for she didn't have alot of people skills and she was the only woman in the fellowship.
"My mission was clear but Legolas seems to be in my way" She thought. She had begun to like the elven prince of Mirkwood. "I can't do that! I cannot love another"
Celebrinàrë kept scolding herself. Her master had made it clear that she could not love another. She snapped out of her mind arguing and began to walk with the group. Celebrinàrë had slowed down untill Gandalf and Aragorn were in the front. All she could do was try to figure things out. She couldn't lead them anywhere let alone show them the way to the Mines of Moria if time permits them to go that way.
"hm......When will I do this?" Celebrinàrë thought but she couldn't get the rest of her thought out when Legolas decided to have a conversation with her.
"Well, what brings you, you of all elves, on this dangerous journey with us?" asked Legolas mockingly.
"Keep your comments to your self, my dear Prince of Mirkwood" Celebrinàrë snapped back. She hated it how other elves would mock her.
"I am only trying to lighten things up. You seem to quiet." Legolas said a little quieter.
"I don't really know how to...." said Celebrinàrë with a long pause.
"How to...." Legolas requested. He wanted to find out what was bugging her.
"Its nothing." said Celebrinàrë. "How much longer till you think Mithrandir* will stop and let us feast?
"Mithrandir is hoping we get to the mountains or the Mines of Moria" Legolas replied.
Celebrinàrë nodded as she began to walk faster and head towards the front of the group once more. She was stopped by Frodo.
"I didn't by chance get your name" Frodo said as he and Celebrinàrë walked side by side.
"Celebrinàrë" Celebrinàrë replied.
Legolas stood behind Frodo and Celebrinàrë looking at the trees, with their brownish goldish leaves, and the wildlife. He wasn't paying much attention to what the halfling and the elven-maiden were talking about.
"I never knew that this far out in Middle-Earth would be so beautiful, well being so near Mordor and such" Legolas thought.
Legolas smiled. He was happy for being out here walking once more and not being confined in Mirkwood. His father would not let him explore like he had once done.
"Celebrinàrë....." He thought. "She is beautiful. As beautiful as a flower just about to bloom" His thoughts kept bringing him back to Celebrinàrë, the silver-blonde, perfect body-ed maiden he had met one night in Mirkwood. He couldn't understand it.
"Mithrandir!" called Aragorn. "We should stop for Frodo is looking a bit weary and he needs his rest."
Mithrandir looked at the hobbit, nodded, and replied "We will camp here for the night. The two elves will be of watch. One of you will rest first, then the other. Is that clear?"
Celebrinàrë nodded as did Legolas. Celebrinàrë said "I'll go first for you seem very weary as well."
"It has been a while since I had last rested. Thank you" Legolas replied. She nodded once more as she saw the rest of the group begin to drift into sleep. She shook her head for some reason and didn't know why.
"What would my master say if I said I had fallen in love with Legolas.?" Celebrinàrë thought as she left the group. They were sleeping and didn't notice her leave. She hurridly ran through to tall trees to somewhere no one would notice and stopped for a breath. The eye of Sauron appeared and scared her half to death.
"Master" said Celebrinàrë catching her breath. "you scared me"
"I've been watching you. Don't fall in love. Love will lead to the same thing Ahundal did to you" The eye of sauron said.
"Love is evil" Celebrinàrë said and she bowed in front of the eye. The eye nodded and disappeared. Celebrinàrë began to run off in the direction of the camp.
"Love isn't evil...well at least I don't think it is" Celebrinàrë thought as she entered the camp. She sat next to the fire and waited till morning.
