Expect the unexpected
Aragorn, Frodo, Boromir, Sam and Gimli ran as fast as they could through the forest. The Ranger lead the way, 'cause he was the one that could hear the sounds of a fight that was taking place not very far away. The others heard something but they couldn't point the direction out clearly.
But all of them knew for sure that their friends had to be involved. Why they knew that they didn't know, but all of them had a strange feeling in their stomach.
[AN: I have that too when there is something wrong. Don't know if you know that feeling, it's too hard to describe..]
After a crisscross run through the trees and bushes they could see a clearing. It took longer than they thought to reach their friend, 'cause shouts echoed from through the forest and made it difficult for Aragorn to say, in which direction they had to go.
But finally they found the battlefield.
It wasn't what they had hoped to find.
A group of at least twenty five orcs had Legolas, Merry and Pippin encircled.
Many dead orcs lay on the ground with arrows sticking out of their bodies.
Merry and Pippin held their short swords and Legolas his two daggers.
Aragon could see that the elf had no arrows left.
The Ranger drew Andruil. Boromir, Frodo and Sam did the same with their swords. Gimli held his axe.
They were ready to fight and they wanted to rescue their friends, when they heared a battel scream come from their right.
Suddenly there were other orcs that attacked them.
Aragorn didn't noticed them when they hide behind the trees. The creatures waited until they thought the time was right and than stormed out of their hiding-place to attack their enemies.
The sudden turn of events confused the orcs that had encircled Legolas and the two Hobbits. The three used their chance and slew as many orcs as they could, though they didn't know what caused the trouble .
Legolas slit the throat of one creature and looked up just long enough to see that the rest of the Fellowship was there and that they were fighting as well.
He managed a smile, the elf had known that they would come to rescue them.
Merry and Pippin had seen their friends al well. Both fought with all their power, but they, like Legolas, grew weary. They didn't start to fight when their friend arrived, the dead orcs on the ground was prove enough for that.
Many orcs fell, but it seemed that their number didn't shrink.
Aragorn slew some more with Andruil. Gimli decapitated some of the creatures with his axe.
Frodo and Sam fought at Boromirs side, like Merry and Pippin fought at Legolas' side.
Finally they could see that the number of the orcs shrunk.
And at some point Aragorn stabbed his sword in the body of the last orc.
Merry and Pippin cheered.
Gimli and the rest of the group walked over to Legolas and the two Hobbits.
„I thought that we would never find you!", exclaimed Pippin and rushed over to huge Frodo and Sam.
„You didn't thought that we would let you hanging, did you?", questioned Frodo.
„No, we didn't", said Merry and he too, hugged his friends.
Gimli, Boromir, Aragorn and Legolas exchanged a smile and a nood, though the Ranger hadn't mind to huge his elven friend.
„Are you okay?", asked Gimli and looked at the Hobbits and than at the elf.
Merry and Pippin nodded. Gimli had seen that Legolas received only some small scratches. The dwarf knew that his healing ability would heal them soon, but he knew also that Aragorn would insist to treat the elf's 'wounds'.
Aragorn eyed all three of them an saw the small scratches on the elf's arms and face. He had to tend them, but now was not the right time and place for that.
„Let's find some place where we can spend the night", he said and started to walk.
The others followed him.
„Where are we going?", asked Merry.
„I think that we should go back to the cave we spend the night in. That is save and if we walk further that way, we must take a detour.", the Ranger explained so that all members of the group could hear his decision.
„Sounds good to me", murmured Gimli. He really did look forwards to spend another night in a cave. He felt save there, much saver than he felt in the forest where they had to sleep under the trees without shelter.
Legolas wasn't so exited to spend another night in a cave, but he knew that that would be the best thing they cloud get right now.
He didn't mind it that much not the sleep under or in a tree.
They needed some time to find the cave, 'cause nobody could remember the way all to clearly. It was no wonder, they were in too much of a hurry to find Legolas and the two hobbits to care where they slept and where they didn't slept.
But they found the cave.
Gimli went out to collect some dry wood to lit a fire. And the others prepared their camp for the night.
When Gimli was back and a fire was burning to warm them up, Merry and Pippin told what they went through.
Boromir, Gimli, Froda and Sam listened to their story, though sometimes they exaggerated a little bit.
Aragorn was lost in his own thoughts when his eyes fell upon the blond elf.
He remembered that he wanted to treat his 'wounds'.
How could he forget something like that?
The Ranger really didn't know.
Aragorn must have shown his confusion clearly, 'cause Legolas who sat next to him whispered: „What troubles you so, my friend?"
„I think that it's time for you to let me see you wounds", he said and looked directly in his freinds eyes.
„Nay, that is nothing Aragorn. They already have started to heal", Legolas said.
„If it isn't so bad, why don't you let me look at them?", asked Aragorn just loud enough for Legolas to hear. He didn't want to disturb the Hobbits and their tale.
Legolas noticed the look of hurt in the Rangers eyes and sighed.
He opened his mouth to speak again, but he was cut of before only one word could leave his mouth.
„I know that you are no child, Legolas", Aragorn smiled at the confused look that Legolas gave him.
He knew that elf too well. Sometimes it even scared himself how much he knew about Legolas.
„Well then, if it makes you feel better", again the elf sighed.
Aragorn took his chance to inspect not only Legolas injuries. He had a good look at the elf's upper body, 'cause he bothered Legolas long enough until he took his shirt.
All too soon for his liking Aragorn was finished with putting bandages on Legolas injuries and he put his shirt back on.
Together they ate something and all except Aragorn went to sleep. The Ranger took the first watch and he used his time not only to look out for something that might cause trouble. He took his time to get a clear look at Legolas.
During the day Aragorn couldn't look at Legolas the way he wanted. The elf might get suspicious and the last thing Aragorn wanted was that Legolas knows something about his true feelings. And it seems always that the elf is aware that he is looking at him.
But at nights it's safe for Aragorn to look at the blond elf as much as he wants.
'Maybe I should go and talk to him', Aragorn thought.
AN: Not very romantic. Sorry, but I think that it wouldn't take much longer for Aragorn and Legolas to confess their feelings for each other. ~_~
