::walks out of a dark forest, her black wizards gown flowing in the wind:: OK PEOPLE YOU MUST READ THIS NOTE. I NEED TO KNOW IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE QUEST THAT GOES WITH THIS STORY. LEGOLAS' DREAM WAS A VISION OF THAT QUEST. So please I need to know if you want to see the quest to take the ring to the end of the dimension (I know it sounds corny but it's actually pretty cool) ok so please tell me. See last chapter for disclaimer. Elvish is in ''. Dark elvish is in ~ ~.

Legolas awoke with a start. He had had another dream about the strange elf from his first dream.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The elf stood in a clearing of sorts in a very dark place. His eyes were full of fear and he was panting heavily. He fell to his knees and placed his hands on the ground in front of his. A small shaft of light from above illuminated his body. He lifted his head when he heard a rustling sound.

A soft semi-evil chuckle sounded before a cloaked figure dropped from above. The tall elf stood up and faced the figure that had just landed in front of him. The figure unsheathed two black-bladed daggers.

'You have much to learn.' It said in a noticeable female voice. 'And you have no time'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Legolas looked around. He was still in the dark glade-like room but Alustriel had left. He crawled out of bed and pulled his shoes on.

He left the room and ran off in search of the girl. He ran for a while and would have slammed into Haldir had he not seen him. Haldir raised an eyebrow at him. Legolas noticed two other elves that looked like Haldir standing nearby.

'You ok Legolas?' Haldir asked

Legolas merely nodded. Haldir noticed that Legolas was looking at the other elves. He smiled gently.

'Legolas, I would like you to meet my brothers Rumil and Orophin. .' He said.

Legolas smiled weakly and nodded to them. The returned the gesture in unison. Legolas looked back at Haldir.

'Have you seen Alustriel?' He asked meekly.

"She's with her mother and Mithrandir in the mirror glade.' Orophin said 'It's just up ahead'

'Thanks.' Legolas said.

He ran off in the direction Orophin had indicated. Sure enough he found them. Lady Galadriel and Mithrandir were sitting on a stone bench on one side of the glade, whereas Alustriel was sitting on the other side.

The young Princess wore a very strange outfit. On her head she wore a semi-dark aqua blue jesters hat. The had had only two tails which were about three feet long and had yellow balls on the ends. She wore a white dress of sorts that split of into a ring of limp white points with yellow balls on the end of each one. The points of fabric came down to her knees, the balls hung limply about her legs. On her arms she wore semi-dark aqua blue, elbow length gloves. On her feet she wore knee-length, semi-dark aqua blue, lace up, high-heeled boots. [1]

She did look rather strange but she looked cool at the same time. Legolas stood up at the top of the small staircase and watched the three. Mithrandir held up an apple-sized ball made up of black marble. Alustriel put a hand up at chest level. The ball flew up out of Mithrandir's hand and floated slowly over to Alustriel. It stopped in front of her hand. The ball then flew towards a small stream and dripped into it. The sphere flew back out of the stream and headed for Galadriel and Mithrandir. It stopped in front of them and began to spin rapidly spraying them with tiny droplets of water. Alustriel smirked. The ball stopped spinning and landed in Mithrandir's open hand.

'Very good' Mithrandir said. ' Though you did get a little…. side-tracked. You have gained a strong control over solid objects.'

Galadriel beamed at Alustriel as she wiped the droplets of water from her face.

'I believe that is all?' She said looking at Mithrandir.

The wizard nodded and smiled at Alustriel. The girl stood and bowed to them before looking up at Legolas.

'I knew you would come…' she said quietly.

Mithrandir and Galadriel looked up at him. Both of them were smiling.

'Hello young prince' Mithrandir said. 'Ready to begin your training?'

Legolas nodded meekly. Alustriel continued to glare at him, her pale eyes gleaming. Legolas shivered under the glare. The princess looked at her mother who met her gaze with a similar stony glare.

The sound of horses filled the glade. Haldir and his brothers entered the glade silently, each of them on the back of a horse. Alustriel looked up at them. A tiny smile formed on her pale face.

'So are we going or not?' Rumil asked.

Alustriel looked back at her mother, who nodded. Alustriel let out a high- pitched whistle. A large black mare entered the glade. Legolas had never seen anything like her. She was tall with red eyes and a long black and red mane. The long black and blood red tail grazed the ground.

'Is that what I think it is?' Legolas asked.

'Yes' Galadriel said ' she is a Mehemuth'

The great horse nuzzled Alustriel affectionately.

'Hira [2] is a dear friend of mine' Alustriel said gently.

Hira bent so that Alustriel could climb onto her back. Like her brothers, Alustriel rode bareback. The princess nodded to her brothers. The four elves turned their horses around and ran off into the forest.

[1] Think the outfit Sakura wore when she captured the water card

[2] The name is pronounced Hai-ra It means black wind in dark-elvish

Sorry for the short chapter. I hope you enjoyed it. Until next time. ::Enters the forest once again::
