The Lady From The West
Legolas signs for Aragorn and Gimli to slow down as he sees something moving in the forest.
"What is it Legolas?"
"I am not sure."
He whispers in reply.
"But there is definitely something there."
And suddenly a loud and clear voice sounds.
"I have 20 archers taking aim at you right now."
The voice sounds from all around. No one of them can tell where it came from. Aragorn reply the voice.
"We mean no harm to you. We only wish to proceed our journey."
And a word no one would understand is heard. In front of then 20 elfin archers stand in a line, with a hooded man in front of them.
"Who are you?"
"I am Aragorn. My travel companions are Gimli and Legolas"
When they hear the name Legolas 15 of them get down on their knee yelling.
"Hail to the prince of Mirkwood."
But five still stand behind the man. Although they are also from Mirkwood. Legolas recognize almost every one of them. The five who didn't salute him as well. The man turns around against the archers.
"If this is your lord, leave. Return home and tell his father that he is alive and travels with Sir Arathorns and Sir Gloins sons."
The 15 men turn around and leave at once. Aragorn steps forward.
"Who are you?"
"No one that you know of Sir Aragorn. Come, it's late. We have safe haven in the forest."
Then the man says some strange words then they all turn around and head into the forest. Aragorn looks back at Legolas.
"I know those men. They are the best archers in my country."
"Then we will find out why they are here."
Legolas nods at him and they all follow them into the forest. The men lead them to a cavern and when they step inside you can se that it almost looks like a home. The hooded man sits down in comfy chair
"You are welcome here in me simple homestead. I am arranging beds for the three of you."
"Who are you? And what have you done with those men?"
Legolas glares at the man. He takes of his hood and they discover that it is in fact a woman. And a human one to. She drives her hands trough her long blond hair. The three men are a little bit surprised and she looks at them. A smile breaks out on her lips.
"What? Surprised I am a woman? That does not surprise me… Well I am Sayana, not that you know of me here in the east. And I have done nothing with those men Sir Legolas, but beat them in every challenge they gave me."
Quiet and to himself Legolas whispers.
"Liar…"
"We are glad that you let us rest here this night. But tomorrow we must leave in the morning."
"I understand that, and I will come with you if I may. Just for a short while though. I have a friend I need to visit. And I believe we are going the same way."
"Very well tomorrow then…"
She shows them to their bedroom then step outside the cavern.
"Elechas!"
And the five elves that stayed moved outside as well.
"Now this is it my friends. You do not need to follow me anymore."
One of the men steps forward and grab her hand.
"But we do not wish to leave."
Her face admits a gentle smile.
"What is wrong with you? Go home to your families. I am sure that they miss you all."
"When you are gone they will still be there."
She sighs and looks at each one of them.
"I must turn back home… My father is sick, and I have to return."
"Across the ocean?"
"Yes…"
Another man that sits down on a stone rises and speaks.
"We will go with you."
"Yes, we would follow you to the end of middle-earth."
She just smiles at them but shake her head.
"No, I can't let you come. Now go and I will come back to se you all. One day in the future."
And after a while in silence they slowly and quietly leave. Sayana stares at the stars for a while then she also leaves but in another direction. Legolas, who has seen and heard everything, follows her as fast and quiet as he can. He found her lying on a cliff gazing up at the stars. Silently singing a song that only she and her people would understand. Legolas takes a bad step and crack a branch. The girl immediately stands up and looks down.
"Who is there?"
She draws her dagger that she kept hidden. Legolas hides behind a tree hoping she will believe that it was just some sort of animal. But he is not that lucky. She moves down and towards him. But patiently he waits and holds his breath. Suddenly the footsteps cease. Relived he lets the air escape his lungs. But he should have known better.
"Taking a walk in the moonlight are we Sir Legolas?"
She holds her dagger against his throat.
"I was just…"
"Just what Sir…? You where following me weren't you?"
He turns his head away from her face.
"I know… What kind of a sorcerer am I? That has enslaved those elves. That is what you are thinking. Is it not? Well I have news for you. They were my best friends. If I told them to jump down a cliff they would do it without hesitating. But now… when I tell then to leave. They almost refuse."
And with a tear running down her cheek she throws her dagger away, turns around and walks away from him. He turns around to look at her then start following her again.
"Wait…"
He catches up with her and grabs her arm.
"I… I am sorry…"
She turns around and he sees that several tears have left her eyes. Without a quiver in her voice she says to him.
"Come…"
She grabs his hand and gently leads him trough the forest. At last she stops and they enter a hidden lake. The stars are reflected in the water.
"It is beautiful…"
"I know."
When Legolas walks around he suddenly hears a splash. He turns around and sees Sayana swimming in the water.
"Come on, hop in. The water is always warm here."
At first he hesitates but takes of some of his clothes and jumps in. Sayana swim over to him,
"Close your eyes."
"What?"
"Just close your eyes…"
And he closes his eyes. She takes of one of her two necklaces that she is wearing. She hangs it around his neck.
"There…"
He open his eyes and looks down at the pendent that rests on his bare chest. It is jet black except for in the middle. There lies a small en gentle glow.
"That pendent allows you to travel everywhere in my country. I am from the west across the ocean. I live in a country where my father is the King."
Her eyes rest on the pendant all the time. While Legolas look at her.
"My father is calling me home now. I know what mission lies before you. I just wish you to come and visit me when your task has been carried out. My father has always wanted to se the elves."
She slowly closes her eyes as she grabs the pendent still resting around her neck. And Legolas whispers in reply.
"I promise…"
Then she looks up at him and meets his beautiful clear blue eyes. Suddenly something happens. They gaze at each other. Now when the wear one pendent each, they can both feel each other's feelings. For a minute or two Legolas just gaze at her gray-blue eyes, and Sayana returns his gaze. And soon Legolas put his arm around her waist and one around her back. He takes her to him gentle and slow. She put both her arms around his neck and moved her face towards him. They both close their eyes and are soon locked up in a kiss.
When Legolas wakes up the next day he discover that he is alone on the shore. Thinking that she must have gone back to the cavern he set his course towards it. But when he gets there…
"Gimli are you sure that you have not seen her?"
"Yes, my friend… why would I lie to you."
"I… I don't know. I am just… I am sorry…"
"That's okay Legolas. Come on now. We must continue our journey."
"Right…"
Legolas sighs and follow his friend. He grabs the pendent and whisper to himself.
"I will keep my promise… Princess Sayana."
Then he hides it beneath his clothes.
