"…and when I woke up I was here," Legolas finished, looking at Gimli, who's mouth was hanging open.
"All of this was happening right under my nose, and I didn't notice…" sobbed the dwarf, and Legolas smiled grimly.
"Gimli, this is not your fault. Even Gandalf didn't suspect anything. None of you are to blame." He looked at Haldir, who blushed. "There is only one person who is responsible, and I swear he is going to die a slow and painful death. But first I have to find him, and I have a pretty good idea of where he is."
"I hope you don't think we're letting you hunt that bastard all by yourself," said Haldir.
"That's right," said Gimli, swinging his axe.
"I should have suspected this," sighed Legolas. "So you're coming with me to Mordor?"
"Hell yeah!" yelled Haldir.
"I still don't know how…" muttered Gimli.
For the first time in so long Legolas smiled, for two reasons. The first was he knew that revenge would taste so sweet, almost as sweet as the mouth of his lover, who he was determined to find. But for some reason he knew that wherever Aragorn was Faramir was also, which made him even more determined to find the Ranger. The second was the fact that he finally had some friends helping him, and he didn't have to deal with all his emotions alone.
