A/N: I do not own the characters, they belong to the great mind of Tolkien,
Indil just so happens to be a character I created……so yeah
This chapter is going to be in the eyes of Legolas…Please review people! I feel so unloved because I've had this up for a while and I only have a few reviews!
Chapter Six: Strange Occurrences
In the hollow box Indil called a 'taxi' I tucked my long legs up more, uncomfortable. Poor Aragorn, his knees were practically vertical to keep him from kneeing the driver. I looked out of the window at the city scene, ignoring the chatter of one of the hobbits on my left. Opaque masses of black smoke were belched from the vehicle on our right, blackening the already unpure air. The only green to be seen about the awful city was of the chipping manmade paint on a car. And even that was hardly a green to behold-it was dirty, fake somehow. The city was alive, yes, but alive with nothing nature made live save man. The city was a terrible place. But the bonds were broken, that much was clear, and the crowded taxi screeched to a halt with a final puff of the black smoke that my eyes could somehow see so much clearer than the others, or else they despised it less. Indil herself seemed to take no notice of it. We piled out of the machine and out onto the street, facing yet another cheerless building, the one which held her apartment.
Indil informed everyone but me to stay in the 'taxi' and wait for she and I to get back. We quicky walked into the building and went into her room. She then grabbed some food and supplys for us, and brought out a bag that she called a 'purse'. Then I confronted her to make sure that she was certain to accompany us on our way. I knew the parting would be very great, if we were to go our separate ways.
"Indil, you know that it will be far worse of a parting if you come with us, it would be so much easier to say goodbye if you stayed behind." I said.
"You wish for me to stay behind? I did not know that you despised my presence so much, my lord."
"It isn't that, and you know that I like being around you, it's just that it will be the hardest thing to do if you came and we would still have to depart."
"My lord, I know not why you argue because I have made up my mind, and I am coming. Not with anything in your power, could you use to keep me from accompanying you and the rest to where you must go."
With that we went the rest of the way back to the taxi in silence. I then got in, followed by her, and she then spoke to the 'driver' of the 'taxi'.
"Sir, we're heading to the forest upstate, do you go that far?" She asked.
"Yes ma'am, but it'll cost you three hundred dollars from any taxi driver you ask, if not more. Are you willing to go still?"
"Yes, please. Will this be taking over three hours?"
"Around there, yes. You might want to relax, it's going to be a long ride."
After that there was silence for about twenty minutes. Then the halflings started fidgeting in their seats and Pippin burst out singing along with Merry to ninety-nine mushrooms and pints on the wall.
"Ninety nine mushrooms and pints on the wall, ninety-nine mushrooms and pints! Take one of each down, pass it around, ninety-eight mushrooms and pints on the wall……………………………"
Then, much to the horror of the halflings, the taxi driver put on the music as to drown out the voices of the hobbits. Then the music started cursing, and Indil told everyone that this was the artist 'Marilyn Manson', and he is only a good singer to the people who enjoy hard rock. That shut the hobbits up though, the thought of someone singing all these cuss words and making it into the song was far beyond the imagination of most creatures of Middle-Earth. One of the lesser phrases in the song, though there were no curses in this part, was altogether disturbing. "White trash get down on your knees, time for cake and sodomy…"
It took Indil a while to realize that we didn't like the music, so she told the taxi driver that the halflings would stop singing if he shut off the music. To this he agreed, and once more, we went on in silence. After a while, everyone drifted off to sleep other than me, for I was busy watching the surroundings change. First there were a lot of big buildings, then they got smaller, and then it became a rolling countryside with a house and a pasture with horses and or cows here and there. I liked this view a lot better than all the towering buildings and lots of, what were supposedly called 'cars'.
I must have started zoning out because when I came back to my senses, though I know I wasn't asleep. There were trees in the distance, visible to the human eye as well as to the keen sight of the elves. I sat in silence, watching out the windows as we drew closer and closer to the forest. Ten minutes later, the taxi driver stopped the car at the edge of the forest and beeped the thing that Indil called the 'horn'. Then everyone woke up and piled out of the car. Indil slowly walked over to the side of the car where the man was waiting, and she gave him three green pieces of paper. He took them eagerly and drove back from whence he came. Then I called to the rest of the group and we wandered off into the forest, to our unknown destination there.
I thought I heard footsteps coming closer, but I figured that it was my imagination for there were nine of us walking and there was almost no way that anyone else was in this forest, or so Indil had said. We walked until the sky darkened and then we laid out some balnkets and started a fire. I was greatly amazed by this device of which Indil had brought with her called a 'lighter', which produced automatic fire. She could not get the logs to start burning, though. She said it was much easier to light the logs on fire with a little gasoline so she took out a can and poured gasoline over the logs. The she took out matches, because she didn't want to burn herself from using the lighter. She then lit a match and threw it on top of the logs and they automatically began to burn.
Indil also had a 'watch' around her wrist, which told her the time, and she said that it was 8:00pm. We wanted to get an early start out looking for the portal the next morning, so Indil told us all to make ready for bed. Then she provided pints and mushrooms for all. No wonder why her bag looked so heavy. I noticed that by doing this, we were all reforming the bonds that had been broken. All the halflings were friends with everyone again, and Gimli, Boromir, and I were willing to forgive all, as well. The only person who didn't forgive anyone but the hobbits and Gimli, was Aragorn. He was still mad at Boromir and I for getting involved with Indil, I suppose. I told Boromir this, and He went over to talk to Aragorn. After a while of watching them, they began to laugh and talk as friends. 'Great,' I thought, 'The only one that Aragorn does not forgive is me.'
"My Lord," Indil said to me, "I know that the portal will not appear fully, until you, Aragorn, and I, have all become friends once more. I know it will be hard to convince Aragorn of a reason to accept that we know that we went against what he said, and we are sorry, but we must try."
"I know, Indil. Let us go and make an attempt at that."
Indil approached Aragorn with a slightly tense spring in her step. I followed close behind her. Then she sat down next to him and I sat next to her. Boromir, knowingly walked away.
"Aragorn," Indil said quietly, as if unsure of herself, "I am sorry for going against your advice. Legolas and I wish to be forgiven. I know that you might not feel like doing so, because what we did was wrong in your mind, but it is the only way to fully reopen the portal back to where you belong."
"I have no reason to forgive you, for all you bring me is pain. I will try to do as you ask, but it will be hard to accomplish, for my mind burns with hatred towards you and Legolas at the moment. I do believe that you are forgiven, but I can't fully accept you both as good friends again." Aragorn replied.
"Thank you, Aragorn. I would ask no more of you. I am truly sorry, and I speak for Legolas as well, right?" She answered.
"Yes, I am sorry for my actions as well. Aragorn, I only hope that we can become friends once more. Though I do believe we don't have much time. The vortex won't stay open for long, even as it is now, I feel it's presence, and it will close withing three days time, no matter whether we have reformed all bonds or not."
With that Indil and I walked away from Aragorn. It was 10:30pm by the time everyone had settled down, and Withing 15 minutes after than, all but Indil and I were asleep. I could hear a slight chattering coming from Indil and I suspected that she was shivering. (Oooo, bright, isn't he? Don't mind me, I had to put in that random comment…) I went over to her and confirmed that she was.
"Indil, are you cold?" I asked.
"Um, not really…just a little." She answered.
I gave her my blanket, and She wrapped it around herself. When she looked at me, there were tears in her eyes.
"Legolas, I don't want to have to leave you. I can't bear the pain f even knowing that you will have to leave me forever in a short time."
I wiped the tears off of her face, and I was slightly surprised to see that she trembled under my touch. "Don't cry, my love, it will be okay, you know that. Don't think now of the future, think of the present, when the future comes, than you may think about it."
"The future which I dread draws near. I had not enough time with you, my prince, I cannot help but cry."
I wrapped my arms around her and held her close. I knew that this is the best I could do to help her at the moment. There was pain in her eyes whenever she looked at me, and I couldn't help but think I was the cause of it. She looked up at me, and I held her gaze. She was no longer shy around me, and I couldn't help but laugh when I thought of when we had first met. She would not look into my eyes! She smiled when she saw me laugh, and I was glad that she didn't think I was laughing at her.
"You know I love you, right?" I asked.
"Do you now…I had the feeling that it was a one sided relationship for a while there." She said.
"You didn't really think that! If you did, you must have doubted me for a while there as well. I wouldn't have been able to leave you back in the city, I don't know what I was thinking when I thought that to be an option.." I replied.
"Hmm, well I love you too, now can you please just shut up and kiss me?!?!" She answered.
I was surprised by he boldness, but I couldn't very well refuse her request. I responded almost automatically. I planted a light kiss upon her lips and I was going to pull away when I heard her mumble, "You call that a kiss?!?" I laughed to hear her say that, and I leaned down and kissed her with more emotion than the last one. She then pulled away from me, and dragged another blanket over next to the one she was laying on. "You'll sleep here tonight, okay?" I obliged by laying down and pulling her down next to me. We lay there, her in my arms, until we fell asleep for the night.
In the morning, we awoke at dawn. I got up and aroused everyone else, and we packed up and started off. I could feel he presence of the portal closer now than last night, and I felt it more strongly when I hung back to talk and joke around with Aragorn. We were ready then to go through it. The feeling that it was coming closer kept growing and growing until I saw a bright light through the trees up ahead.
"There it is!" I yelled.
We all started briskly walking towards it, when we were halted by arrows flying through the air. One hit the ground and I picked it up. It was clearly the arrow of a Uruk-Hai. They must have found the portal and came through it. The arrows kept coming and I yelled for everyone to hurry towards the portal. They did so, and I shot arrows back at the Uruk-Hai. I heard a yell from an all too well known voice, and I shot the last few Uruk-Hai before running towards the yell.
The sight made me want to scream. Indil lay on the ground with an arrow piercing her flesh, and it was clear that she would die without aid, for it was a poisoned arrow. I tried not to cry, for she was still conscious and that would make her scared. I quickly swept her up into my arms, which became covered in blood after about a minute, and I knew that the rest of the company had gone back through the portal. There was only one choice left for me to do. I had to take her with me. I ran through the portal, and walked out onto the border of Lothlorien, from whence we had headed out from before we went into the other world. I saw Aragorn up ahead and he thought that I had just decided to take her along until he saw the blood.
"Aragorn, quick, help me get her to a healer, she was hit by an arrow from the Uruk-hai!"
He led the way into the forest until we came unto a guard of the forest. When they saw Indil bleeding, they took us to a healer. They took Indil into a room and shut the door. I was not allowed to see her until she was in better condition.
"Is she going to be okay?" I sobbed to one of the elves who came to talk to me.
"I'm sure she will." The pretty blonde elf maiden answered lightly. "Where did she come from?"
"From another land." I answered.
"I fear that she seemingly brings evil to this land. I feel the presence of it."
"She isn't evil!" I protested!
"Follow me. Galadriel will need to speak with you. She has just cam out from seeing the maiden."
I followed her and saw Galadriel once more.
"Legolas," Galadriel said, "Do you know who she is?"
"No, I know not of that," I answered.
"She is a decendent of the dark lord, Sauron. Before he went bad, he had a child with an elf. She is a descendant of him and the elf. The elf was that of high power. She was the queen of rivendell for a time. Though Indil may not seem evil, she may have a trace of it in her blood."
At this, I was shocked. How could she be a descendant of Sauron? My head spun. I can't bring evil unto the whole fellowship by my mistakes with evil. I cannot love evil. How could I have fallen into this mess? How could I have let myself be trapped in such an occurence? HOW? I can't go through this. She must not bring evil unto my friends. If Sauron sees her, she will fall unto his power… All these thought ran through my mind. I was completely taken by surprise.
Galadriel had supposedly told this to Indil as well. I hoped that Indil would not react to this and right away become evil. I had to get out of there! I ran from the area and came to the river where I sat and thought for a while.
For two days I thought in silence. Then, I was confronted once more by the elvish maiden, Ára.
"Do you really think of her as a different person because of who her ancestors were? She is still the same Indil that you knew before you knew who she is a descendant of, you know." Ára said.
"She isn't the same. You said yourself that you sensed evil. How could I be so blind as so I didn't see it? She isn't the same."
"But she is! Her personality has not changed one bit! You must have felt something for her as to save her from death and bring her here so you saw past the evil with love. You cannot just decide to hate her because of who he ancestors are!"
"And who are you to tell me that?" I asked.
"Do you hate me as well?" Ára replied.
"Of course I don't, Why would I?" I answered.
"Because I am Indil's grand mother, and I know I don't look it because Indil was brought from the future, and I have not yet had her mother. But Sauron is my father. You will most likely decide to hate me as well now that you know that." Ára stated.
"Maybe you are right, my lady. Maybe, like you, she is not as evil as she is supposedly thought to be. You, Ára, do not seem evil. I guess you are right then. She could not possibly be evil just because of her identity, can she?" I asked.
"Evil isn't born, it is changed and made to be evil. Your Indil is innocent and far from evil. Though there is evil in her blood, she herself is not evil. Do not let this evil nonsense blind you from your heart. She is probably better by now, being as you have been gone from the heart of Lothlorien for two days. She probably fears that you feel the way you did before I talked to you. Fear is the only thing that can conquer love, Legolas. She might regret what she is doing now, but you are the only one who can save her, go to her now, and hurry!" Ára ordered.

"Maybe you are right, my lady. Maybe, like you, she is not as evil as she is supposedly thought to be. You, Ára, do not seem evil. I guess you are right then. She could not possibly be evil just because of her identity, can she?" I asked.
"Evil isn't born, it is changed and made to be evil. Your Indil is innocent and far from evil. Though there is evil in her blood, she herself is not evil. Do not let this evil nonsense blind you from your heart. She is probably better by now, being as you have been gone from the heart of Lothlorien for two days. She probably fears that you feel the way you did before I talked to you. Fear is the only thing that can conquer love, Legolas. She might regret what she is doing now, but you are the only one who can save her, go to her now, and hurry!" Ára ordered.
