A/N: The Company is not my own. Mr. Tolkien is responsible for such intelligence. However, Anasetta and Foska Appledome are mine.

MAIN CHARACTERS: Legolas and (my made-up character) Foska
Summary: The Fellowship of the Ring headed to Mirkwood due to their lack of provisions. Their Elf companion, Legolas Greenleaf was fortunately the Prince of Mirkwood. He persuaded them to stop over and rest. This is great news for the other eight but to Legolas, this has a different beat…
Chapter One: The Stop at Mirkwood
"I'm hungry, I could eat an orc!" Pippin cried one sunny afternoon. "Is there anything there, Sam?"
"Yes but," Sam Gamgee answered, "it's not enough to last us this week. What should we do Gandalf?" he asked to Gandalf the Grey who was counting the ants passing by.
"This I do not know, Sam," he said. "I guess we have to stop by the nearest place of civilization. We have to refill our stocks there."
The Elf, Legolas Greenleaf was listening from above a tree. He was whittling on a branch a figure of a unicorn. With one leap, he was standing upright on its roots and said, "Alas! Then we must go to my motherland, Mirkwood. I am sure that my people will treat us well."
"Your people?" a hobbit named Merry said. "You didn't tell us you're a king?"
"Not exactly little Merry," he smiled. The wind blew his long hair away from his face. "My father is. What I am is a Prince. If you all come with me, each one will receive a most royal treatment."
"Great!" ring-bearer Frodo Baggins exclaimed. "Mirkwood it is! Let's go!"
The Dwarf Gimli said," Oh the land of the wood elves. Oy Aragorn!" he called to a Man peering under a stone. "Does Arwen's relative live there as a noble? What's her name again, Legolas?"
"Ah right you are, Gimli," Aragorn replied. Arwen is the princess of Rivendell and his love interest. She has saved Frodo once from the Enemy. "The name again Legolas?"
The Elf has said nothing. He was looking at space and was thinking. He has not forgotten the Elfish girl's name. In fact, she has a big part on his life.
Aragorn, Gandalf, and Frodo noticed Legolas' sudden change of mood. The little hobbit asked the Man Boromir of Mordor why. "It is obvious, is it not? Elves are cunning not to tell and look blank when a certain person is discussed. In short, this GIRL is special to him."
Snapping back to reality, Legolas retorted, "No she is not! Her name is Foska and she's from a wealthy family and the oldest clan in Mirkwood. She is Arwen's cousin and just a…a friend of mine from childhood." He leapt from the roots to the edge of the cliff. Trying to change the subject, he pointed to a distant place. "There, there is Mirkwood! Not a day's journey from now. And that tower over there, is our castle. The house adjacent to us is Foska's."
Gandalf stiffled a snort. Realizing his mistake of mentioning the name, Legolas turned red. "That's alright, young Elf," Gandalf said. "One does makes mistakes and lies. Well then, there is no use of staying here. Let's go. It is getting dark."
The nine creatures packed up their camp and journeyed toward Mirkwood with Legolas on the lead. "I'll see you again, Foska. Just wait…I'll be there…"
