Chapter 2
Eventually they came to the fringes of a vast wood. As they entered the dense, green foliage, Morgan gasped in realisation "I this…" She paused and Alicia joined in "Mirkwood?"
"Yes we are in my father's realm." Replied Legolas, without looking back.
"Woooowwww!" exclaimed Alicia.
"Oooh, yay!" replied Elle sarcastically. Morgan was silent, deep in thought. Legolas carried on, quietly leading them on a seemingly invisible path through the thick forest. Dark shapes boomed menacingly in front of them, and no light could penetrate the trees now they were properly in Mirkwood. The great forest was silent; there were no birdcalls or animal noises. The silence was chilling, and soon the three girls were scared. Legolas was quite far ahead now, and they could just make out the glimmer of his hair "The Ne-Necromancer is…" ventured Morgan taking in her surroundings, but before she finished her question Legolas spun round and fixed her with a piercing gaze. His blue eyes looked troubled "He dwells near, and it is his dark power which casts this shadow over our land." He replied.
"Oooh, spooky!" laughed Elle but she quailed when Legolas turned his gaze on her.
"You haven't read the book, have you?" Alicia asked her.
"No, too many words!" Elle admitted.
L8R! L8R! L8R! L8R! L8R! L8R! L8R! L8R! L8R! L8R! L8R! L8R! L8R! L8R!
Soon they came to a clearing in the dark trees. A few feeble beams of light illuminated a grand palace nestling amongst the trees. "Welcome to my home. You may abide here for a short while." Legolas told them, looking at each of them in turn paying close attention to Alicia then moved her hair from her ear. "You are elven." He asked. Elle butted in "You betcha'! So can we go now I'm getting bored." Legolas shot her a disapproving stare, which led to Elle snorting "Don't look at me like that Mr Cheekbones!" This comment provoked Alicia and Morgan kicking each of Elle's shins, leaving her hopping around. Legolas retorted "Since your companion is most egar to get moving, let us go."
They moved stealthily towards the elven palace, as they advanced they gasped in wonder. It was a grand and beautiful place intricately decorated in slyvian runes and symbols, leafs designs carved in. It was moulded around many great trees, making them a part of the elves love for nature meaning no tree's growth was hindered. A winding staircase of pale white wood, draped in ivy wound round a great and towering oak, vanishing into the reaches of the great boughs above. Legolas gestured them towards the great staircase and Elle skipped happily up merrily trilling "Oh wow! I've never been in a tree house like this before!" Then vanished from view Morgan sighed before following the muffled sounds of Elle tripping over some stray ivy. The muffled swearwords of amazing imagination drifted down to Alicia and Legolas who brought up the rear.
As he walked Legolas thought about his strange new companions who he was taking into his own home. The first one, he thought they called her Elle seemed very merry and bright, if not a little…well…weird. She had flaming red hair and a wide smile; also she seemed to be very prone to getting stones in her shoe. She behaved in a very un-elven manner. The next, Morgan, he could not say much of. She seemed quiet and calculating, he felt she knew much more than she let on. She was tall even for an elf, but her blonde hair was short. The final one, Alicia, seemed so…bewitching. She was not like either of her companions; she seemed happier and more open than Morgan did, yet saner than Elle. There was something familiar about how she had her hair. He was sure she had stolen the style from…from…HIS HORSE! The silly bint!
THE SILLY BINT! THE SILLY BINT! THE SILLY BINT! THE SILLY BINT!
They entered the main hall where they met Legolas's father Thranduil. Morgan knew who he was and bowed; the two other followed her lead. Thranduil "Who is this you bring before me" broke the awe like silence?
Legolas stepped forward "They are travellers from a distant land." Thranduil snorted and examined the new arrivals with an un-interested look "Fine they mat stay in my residence."
Two elven maids came and showed them each to a room. Morgan was the first to get shown to her room, dark panelled wood came half way the walls and in the centre of the far wall was an enormous mahogany fireplace with a roaring fire. In the middle of the room there was a magnificent King sized four-poster bed. Morgan had never seen such splendour in her life "It's the most exquisite room I have ever seen!" she turned to the elves "Thank you so much."
The youngest elf blushed and said "your welcome, Ma'am. We have laid your clothes for the banquet on the bed."
Elle jumped "Does this mean P-A-R-T-Y!" She did the 'Joey' dance. The maidens giggled at the outburst and led the girls to the next room. This time it was Elle's room. A light room with heavy navy and cream drapes. An other fireplace this time on the left wall to the door, it was made from light beech and again had a roaring fire within. At the opposite wall was an intricate carved bed with an ivy and vine design across the headboard. In the firelight the room seemed to sparkle like stars. Elle gasped "Wow! It's like Arctic Barbie's log cabin with glow in the dark ceiling but better!" Yet again the youngest elf-girl giggled and spoke "Master Legolas requested that Miss Alicia sleep in the room next to his."
Elle followed this with "Ohhhh! Someone's gonna get lucky. Oh Mr Cheekbones I love your hair and your arrow is sooo big and strong." Alicia looked revolted by this suggestion "Er-lack! Yuck! Your sick, is that what you think of me?"
Elle rolled her eyes "Pretty much yeah."
Alicia continued "I can't believe that you think that! I'm not like you I at least wait a day until I hop into bed with them."
Elle did not appear bothered by this and merely retorted "More fool you."
The elven girl looked shocked and said in a strange way "You are very fortunate to be requested by Master Legolas he has never asked for someone to lodge in the adjoining room. Many girls would do unsightly things for such an honour." Alicia had now changed to a pale green colour she spoke in a shaky voice "You never said anything about adjoining, that means he could came in and not be heard." She sat down on a beautiful rocking chair, Elle tutted "You virgins are all sooo up tight. Believe me it's way more fun not being one."
The maiden spoke "I do not mean to be rude, but I have other duties to attend to and your friend is slowing me down. I have orders to show her the room."
Elle knew what she must do, so she grabbed Alicia by the elbow and pushed her into the hallway and told the maidens to dress and tend to her in her room.
Legolas paced the floor what had this girl done to intoxicate him so much? She was nothing special but totally unique. Her hair fell down to her waist and her eyes were of the clearest azure blue, but these were not the reasons for this infatuation. She had something that most girls he knew did not. Was that the reason he had got her to board in the adjoining room? He did not know himself, for he had never done such a thing before. She plagued his thoughts for the rest of the night.
Alicia was still in a daze when the maids took her to her room. When she walked in the door she seemed emerge from it. The room had a high ceiling with mouldings across it; there was a bed, the biggest bed Alicia had ever seen it seemed to stretch across the whole side of one wall. There was a dressing table made from the whitest wood with many lotions and potions strewn on it. Alicia gasped, the other girl's rooms were beyond imagination, but this was an assault on her senses. Again the gown for the evenings banquet was laid on the bed. It was made from fine silk and was a creamy ivory colour. She thought this moment was the best in her life when "Ma'am I've had strict instructions from Miss Elle that we dress and tend to you 'fore the banquet starts."
Alicia sighed and rolled her eyes patronisingly "I do not need or want your help getting myself dressed, thank you."
The maid spat "You may not want it but you need it." Before Alicia could stop them or say another word the maids were on her buzzing around like bees.
A/N: I haven't read the Hobbit (as you can tell) so it's pure guesswork, but do not despair I have read LotR.
