Alright readers, please keep reviewing and forgive me for such a short chapter, but I'm on Vacation right now and it is really hard to post. Thank you, thank you, thank you to Michi-chan and Jevvica for reviewing!
Legolas crouched down and waited as he saw the monster enter the dome before his eyes. His eyes that carried no fear, his eyes that were ready for anything. Out of the dark came an enormous, heated flame. The flame lit up the dark enough so that Legolas caught a glimpse of his monster. A Dragon.
Legolas ran to beast as the crowd roared in it's own beastliness. The elf ran up the spikey tail of the redish black dragon. The tail flung itself around and was hoping to fling off Legolas like a toy, but did so to no avail. Once Legolas was on the rough back of the dragon he headed towards the ears of the animal. Like the elf he was, Legolas patted the anry Dragon and whispered something in the dragon's ear in elvish. A flame whizzed out of the dragon's nostrils and lifted up off the ground using it's enormous wings. Legolas held on and was grateful to the animal for the ride.
The ever so noisy crowd watched in fear as the dragon spit flames towards them. When Legolas spotted Gimli he jumped off the dragon's back and grabbed him being careful of the flames. It wasn't long before the dwarfs were dispersing. Legolas ran with Gimli and jumped back onto the dragon's back from off the consession stands. Gimli smiled as he looked back where he had been held captive. He watched as Gathor ran like a coward with a flaming bum. The dragon crashed the the entrance in which it came and within moments, Legolas and Gimli were back outside. They rode on the dragon's back until they knew they were at a safe distance.
Finally legolas slid off the dragon which had ever so politely flew down to a nearby tree. He patted the dragon's side and after Thanking it emmensly, they watched it go. Then Gimli said sarcastically, "Being friends with an elf...why didn't I ever think that I would ride on the back of a dragon."
"You were as surprised as I, my friend." Legolas chuckled.
After walking towards the area in which they had left their horses Legolas glanced at his dwarfish friend. "Well that was interesting."
Gimli nodded, "I do apologize, but I fear that the dwarfs of my home had plenty of reason to be upset."
Within a second Legolas went from calm and cheery to deadly calm. "Excuse me my friend? Did you just say that they had an excuse for what they did to me? Did you really just say that they had an excuse for beating upon me at unfair odds and then sending me into a series of battles? I must have heard you wrong Gimli, for a friend would never say such a thing as that." Legolas' eyes stared upon Gimli waiting for an answer.
When Gimli hesitated, Legolas looked at him dissapointed, "We will go our separate ways dwarf, you to your home, and I to Mirkwood." With that Legolas rode away on Arod leaving Gimli behind.
"No," Gimli said to himself, "I go to get my father."
