Disclaimer:- No, I don't own these characters, they belong ultimately to J.R.R. Tolkein. Thank goodness he's not alive to see this. Anyone or anything you don't recognise is mine though. ^_^ And to get it clear, Legolas = Tregaron.
A/N: Well, I do not know where this came from, I never normally write like this, it's scary really. Anyway, warnings,
Angel: *yawns* warnings are so boring, just get on with the fic.
Destiny: Oh hush up Angel.
Angel: Why?
Diamond: Because we say so, and you're annoying the mentally unstable author.
Thank you. And after that brief interlude...
Warnings: Slash between Aragorn and Legolas. But I do not write citrusy fics, so the most romantic action you get is kissing. I leave parts open to your imagination, draw from it what you will...
Angel: And don't forget that it's AU and that Legolas and Aragorn parted on bad terms, and that Aragorn hurt Legolas, and that Aragorn and the rest of the Fellowship (excluding Gandalf `cause he's dead) is immortal, and that Gandalf is dead, and that the entire Fellowship think that Legolas died of a broken heart because of what happened between him and Aragorn, and that- *is gagged and stuffed in a cupboard*
Sorry about her, yeah the prologue should have cleared it all up for you. Elvish speech is in `...' normal speech is in "...".
Thanks to
^___^, Cliffhangers? You think that was a cliffhanger?! Oh boy... just you wait until I finish this chapter...
Nikki, thanks very much, I can't actually wait myself... my fics tend to write themselves.
Celeste, Wow! Thank you, I'm writing as fast as I can.
Destiny: Believe me, that's not very fast...
The Tenshi, *cowers* okay! Fans? I have fans?
Diamond: Don't let it get to your head girl.
AJ Matthews, (Oh my god, I LOVE your stories!) Thank you for your review, I will update as soon as possible, though with two broken fingers (PITY ME PEOPLE!!) it's quite hard.
Sarri-chan, Legolas rocks I agree (and he's super fit!! ^_~) I will explain what Legolas and Aragorn fell out about, when I get to that bit. I don't like seeing the Elf sad, so I'm gonna have to make it better.
Angel: But she'll drag it out for longer first.
Of course I will you idiotic Elf!
Angel: Well I'm older than you :P
elven-princess, thank you very much, here's the next part.
Little Irish Dudette, (funky name) thanks, short, but sweet! :)
Lego Land, you're quite welcome. And, I will keep updating, as quickly as I can, but *sigh* like all other people of my age, I have homework to do, and that may delay... which sucks really doesn't it? Thanks for reviewing again!
Sue, thank you for your review, :) I will try and mend my fingers, *glares at fingers* heal damn you!!! All done now. Here comes the next part!
C~tina, thank you, wow, thanks very much! I'm sorry there's not more, but isn't that the point of chapters? And cliffhangers....(I think that this chapter shall have a cliff hanger ending... :) heeheehee)
Jadakiss/GurvaraX5452, interesting reviews... I'm glad you like it. I will explain the fight between Aragorn and Legolas, in due time, not yet though. Thanks for your review!
Hope you all enjoy it!!
Please review this time!!!
An Angel's Embrace
Legolas in the lead, followed by Gimli and Aragorn. Frodo and Sam walked behind them, and right at the very back walked Merry and Pippin. The company walked in silence, apart from the occasional whispering from the Hobbits, and the odd grunt from the Dwarf. They walked for a very long time,
The Hobbits were soon very tired, and were tripping over themselves. Aragorn looked up at Tregaron who showed no signs of stopping.
"Master Tregaron?" He called, casting his worried gaze back onto the Hobbits. Legolas turned round and looked at the ranger.
"Yes?" The Elf let out a sigh. Even after all these years, Aragorn's voice could still stop him on his tracks and send shivers down his spine. He shook his head, he would not let old feelings over-ride his judgement, for Aragorn was out of his life now. He had been for hundreds of years... why did he have to return now, just as Legolas had sorted his life out again. Why? Aragorn's voice jerked the Elf out of his thoughts.
"We should rest now. For the Hobbits are weary, and we should not try and cover any more ground. Nightfall is upon us, and if we are to stray but a little, we shall loose our way." Legolas sighed in defeat. How could he resist?
"Very well." He quickly came and stood between Merry and Pippin, offering them his support. "Just a little further. We must get off the road, as people who do murder innocents travel along these roads by night." He whispered to them, making them both shudder. "Come along all."
He led them to a clearing and started collecting dry twigs and small logs to build a fire.
"Master Tregaron?" Pippin spoke up, causing Legolas to drop the small pile of twigs.
"Please jut call me Tregaron. It's much easier." Then he added as an after thought, "Only those who are scared of me should really call me `Master'. Apparently, it makes me less likely to slit their throats." Pippin shuddered. Legolas shook his head and knelt down to Hobbit-height. "There is no need to fear me, for I will not harm those who do not need to be harmed." He rose and picked up the twigs that he had dropped.
"Ma-, Tregaron," Pippin said, biting his lip so that he didn't shiver. "It is a pleasure to travel with one so great as yourself. My name is Peregrin Took, though, since we are on friendly terms, you may call me Pippin." The Hobbit bowed. Legolas almost smiled underneath his hood.
"It is my pleasure Pippin." He said, bowing to the Hobbit. "I would very much like to be introduced to your friends." He said.
"How are you so feared?" Pippin asked, wincing as he stretched. Legolas picked up on the wince and knelt next to Pippin.
"What is it?" He asked, unable to keep the concern out of his voice. "Are you hurt?"
"`Tis naught but a scratch." Pippin said quickly.
"A scratch it may be, but if it causes pain then it must be tended to." The Elf worked quickly, taking off the small Hobbit's cloak, and, leaving the shirt on, tended to Pippin's wounded shoulder. There was a large gash, open and bleeding. "`Tis a wonder you did not pass out before now young Hobbit." The Elf reached into his bag and pulled out some herbs. He put them onto the wound, making Pippin wince. "Sorry." He said quietly, dressing the wound. And then he reached into his bag again and pulled out a bandage. "I'll put this round your arm. You are not to move it until you need to." The Hobbit nodded as Legolas put the sling around the injured arm, raising it. The Elf tied it tight and made sure that it was immobile. "Not to move it." He repeated sternly. Legolas then stood up and turned away from Pippin.
"Yes, not to move it." Pippin repeated. He cocked his head to one side and looked at Legolas's back. `Tis strange, we have met only for a day, and I feel like I know him somehow...' Pippin thought. `How come he seems to know us?' The youngest member of the group shook his head and began to walk over Frodo, Merry and Sam. He sat down next to his cousin - Merry, and sighed.
"Pip? What is it?" Merry asked, then spotting the sling, the Hobbit laughed. "How long must that stay on?" Pippin glared at Merry.
"I do not know. Tregaron did not say when it could come off." The three Hobbits gasped.
"You let him dress your wound?" Pippin nodded.
"He was most gentle, and kind. He wished to be known by his name. Calling him master just makes him feel uncomfortable."
"How do you know so much about him?" Sam asked, his eyes on the small clasp holding the knot at the back of the sling together.
"I do not know." Pippin replied honestly. "It seems that he really is gentle, and I am sure that I have met him before. His voice is so familiar. Almost as if he were..." Pippin trailed off. Merry, Sam and Frodo exchanged worried looks.
"Pip, it's not him," Merry said, placing a comforting arm around his younger cousin.
"Please Pip, you know it's not." Frodo said softly. Pippin bit his lip and leant on Merry, tears in his eyes.
"Am I the only one who still believes that he could still be alive?"
"Pippin, it's been hundreds of years, and we have travelled all over. If he were alive, should we not have found him?" Pippin sniffed and Merry placed his other arm around Pippin in a hug, being careful of the injured arm. "I know you miss him, we all do, but do you think that he would have wanted us to grieve so? And so long after his death?"
"You're right Mer." Pippin sniffled. "But what if he," Sam cut him off.
"No more talk about it now Pippin." Sam said wisely. "I think what you need is a good night's rest." Pippin nodded and curled up next to Merry. Soon, he was asleep.
Merry fell asleep next, his head resting on top of his young cousin's. Sam and Frodo took Merry and Pippin's cloaks and put them to one side as they lay the pair down. Then they covered the two Hobbits with their cloaks before laying down and pulling their own cloaks over them.
"Night Mr Frodo."
"Good night Sam," Frodo said. "Good night all." The Hobbit rolled over and soon fell fast asleep. Sam lay awake for a while before turning over and going to sleep.
Gimli grunted a good night to everyone before laying down and sleeping. Only Aragorn saw the cloaked figure of Legolas shaking his head sadly behind the Hobbits.
And only Aragorn saw the figure turn to face the other way and lower his hood...
Will Aragorn discover who Tregaron really is? Or will he stay left in the dark? Find out next time!

A/N: bwahahahahahahahahaaa! What a cliffhanger! I feel happy now. That's good to get it off my chest.
Please review, this took me ages to type, since I have 2 broken fingers (SYMPATHY PEOPLE!!). The more reviews I get, the faster the next part will come out. (And believe me when I say, more reviews, more chapters!! :) hee hee!)
