Ch.5- Dearest Audra
***
The next few days, Estelle and Legolas had been getting closer than before, they stayed together almost everyday. Legolas' father had wanted to stay of course, to talk with King Hector, but then...
"Legolas, I think I am ready to leave, I have settled and talked long with King Hector and I think it is time to go now." said King Thranduil.
"Father...please..may I stay longer? I have fallen in love with Princess Estelle, I cannot leave her now."
"Ah...yes, I have seen the both of you together often, I'm guessing you two are very close?"
"Yes father, I just told you I am falling in love with her.." said an impatient Legolas.
"Ok, ok...I heard you the first time, *SIGH* all right then, you may stay, but you must ask King Hector for his approval, in fact he is available right now, why don't you go to him? I will see you later then. Goodbye."
"Goodbye, and thank you so much father!" Legolas ran off thinking of how happy he was now that his father had let him stay.
***
Meanwhile, Estelle was walking through the halls when she heard Legolas running towards her.
"Estelle! Estelle! My father has let me stay!" shouted Legolas as he came running.
"Oh! That's wonderful news!" Estelle replied and ran towards Legolas, Legolas then caught her and spun her around several times.
"Now I just need your father's approval" said Legolas as he set Estelle down.
"Come, I will take you to my father and we'll both ask, I'm very sure he will let you."
Estelle took Legolas' hand and they both ran towards King Hector's study. When they got there, they knocked on the big heavy doors and they heard Hector's voice.
"Come in"
Legolas and Estelle pushed open the doors, just as Estelle came in, she stopped. There by her father's desk was her loving mother, Queen Meridian.
"Mummy..?" said Estelle as tears started to build up.
"Oh...my darling daughter! Come here!" Estelle ran towards her mother and the both of them hugged and didn't want to let go.
"Oh mother, you don't know how much I've missed you! I think about how you're not here with daddy, and now, I guess I don't have to worry anymore.." sobbed Estelle.
"Your mother just came in this morning, I was just going to bring her downstairs to greet you in fact." said a smiling King Hector. Just then, Estelle remembered why she and Legolas was here.
"Oh, father, Legolas and I need to ask you something.." Estelle took Legolas' arm and he stood before King Hector.
"Er, your highness? Would it be possible if I were to stay awhile longer here while my father goes back home..?" Legolas felt very nervous, this was his first time questioning King Hector.
"Stay here? Of course! Why not?" said Hector with all smiles. Legolas felt relieved and smiled.
"Ah...Prince Legolas of Mirkwood." said Queen Meridian.
"Your highness." Legolas bowed politely.
"Oh, no need for that, it wasn't that long since I talked to you, you know. I see you have met my wonderful daughter Estelle?"
"Yes, we have grown very fond of each other." replied Legolas. Queen Meridian winked at him.
"My Estelle, you've grown so much since I left with your father, I'm just so happy I won't miss both of my princesses' coronation!"
"I'm so glad that you're back!" Estelle smiled and hugged her mother again.

Audra, in her bedroom, sat on her bed humming a tune while brushing her hair. The Essence was sitting on her bedside table.
"Oh, mother's back isn't she? Sending her letters to me, I should greet her..." this was Audra's dark side. Her possesed side, the real Audra was trapped inside the darkness. The real Audra was remembering how it happened, how she got possesed and trapped in the dark...
*Flashback*
"NO! Wh-what do you want from me?! Audra was on the ground backing away from a shadowed figure. It was late at night outside and Audra had just come back from taking a late night stroll because she couldn't sleep. "Please! Leave me be! What do you want?!" pleaded Audra as she started to back into a dead end, this was it she thought, this was it. "Please..! No..! NO...!" Audra screamed with agony as the shadow went inside her. Audra then stood up and as if in a trance, she never blinked and walked to the gardens to the hidden waterfall of Essence. There, a bottle stood waiting and she filled it with the water, she picked the nectar from the Hybrid orchid and dropped it into the Essence, she drank it and the dark side came over her.
"My Essence, I have lived again, this body is good for me, she is a princess, I'm going to enjoy this..." hissed a dark voice.
*Flashback Ends*
Audra stopped brushing her hair and started to gasp for air, her hand shaking, she reached over to grab the Essence but instead knocked it over and it crashed to the floor shattering the bottle to pieces with the liquid inside spilling all over.
"No!" Audra's dark side shrieked and collapsed to the floor. The shadow came out of Audra and disappeared.
***
In King Hector's study, the four of them turned as they had heard the shriek from Audra's room.
"What was that?" asked Estelle.
"Somebody screamed, I think it was your sister." said Legolas looking worried. They all raced out the doors into the hallways to Audra's bedroom. When they came to the room, Legolas carefully opened the door and saw Audra lying on the floor with the shattered pieces of glass. Legolas approached her and checked around to see if anyone was there.
"Nobody's here, I wonder what happened.." said Estelle as she came behind Legolas. Queen Meridian had her hand clasped over her mouth in shock, tears started to come and she started shaking, King Hector tried to calm her.
"Come, we must tell the healers what happened, I am very sure our daughter will be just fine." King Hector slowly tried to lead Queen Meridian downstairs to the healers.
"I am so worried, although she hasn't been acting up lately, she is still my beloved sister." said Estelle solemnly.
"Do not worry, she's still breathing, she's just knocked out."
***
Days had passed since the incident with Audra, she still lay in bed unconscious, the healers tried everything but just couldn't wake her up. The coronation was edging closer and closer.
"*SIGH* She still hasn't waked up and we havn't seen any new signs of her waking at all, she might have to miss her coronation." reported a healer.
"No, please, are you sure you have tried everything? My daughter cannot miss this coronation! I can't move the date! It has been planned for that day and that day only! She will be crowned, I cannot change that, it is not my decision!" cried Queen Meridian. The coronation was not planned by her or King Hector, it was planned by one of the high kingdoms who decided on matters like this. Queen Meridian couldn't take it, the thought of her very own daughter not being able to make it to her coronation was not an option.
***
It was early in the evening and the sky turned orange and pink as the sun slowly below the tree tops. Up on a balcony, Legolas and Estelle stood holding each other, Legolas of course, comforting Estelle.
"I'm so worried, what if she doesn't wake up at all? What if she misses her coronation?!" Estelle let go a bit to look up at Legolas.
"I'm sure she'll wake up, she has to make it for the coronation, she still has time you know" said Legolas. The coronation wasn't for 3 days. Legolas and Estelle stayed together for the remainder of the evening, talking long into the night about Audra and the coronation.
"I just wished that I knew what was going on about her before she went unconcious, she always seemed to run away to her room, it looked like she couldn't breathe."
"I know what you mean, I've seen her run down the halls clasping her throat several times, has she always been like this? Has she EVER been like this?"
"No, she's never been like this, I know her really well, as long as I've lived with her, she's never had any major sicknesses or injuries...I'm just really worried, I want her to wake up, she's my only sister and I love her so much.." a tear rolled down Estelle's cheek, Legolas wiped it and they headed down to the dining hall for a late meal.
