OMG! Thank you all for the reviews! And Thanks Katie!!! Well here's the next chapter...



Chapter 12 (The Cook and Tara.)

The next day the cook came back to see her Kitchen shot to hell. Tara walked in after the cook and noticed the look on her face, "Oh....Heh, Hi."

"Did you cause this?" Bella (the cook.) Asked.

"Uh....No?"

"Do not lie to me child!" Tara smirked and nodded solemnly.

"Amin delotha lle! (I hate you!) Auta miqula orqu (Go kiss an orc!)" Bella screamed, Tara not knowing what the hell Bella had said replied with, "Thank you...I will...Okay...Buh bye."

Bella stood there looking confused.

(Legolas' Dairy entery.)

/Wednesday of Mirkwoods full moon.\ Wow, I never realized how dumb Tara could be sometimes. No offence to her, I love her dearly...But sometimes do you always think, "Can I take that engagment offer back?" Because that's been running through my mind alot. Sometimes she scares me. And I don't really know why. But....She's had some scary days, ya know? I don't know what to do...When I'm King of Mirkwood...she'll be Queen! Eru save us all. Let me repeat this...I do love her. But I don't know if I'm denying myself the truth....

Well I must go bathe. I'll talk to you later, Legolas Greenleaf Future King Of Mirkwood.

(Back to the third person's point of view.)

Tara walked up the stone starecase and made her way through the hall. She found Legolas' door. And entered, she was allowed there whenever she wanted. She saw a ledger on the bed.

Hmm...Must investigate.

She opened the ledger and found her name, "OOH I'M IN HERE!! MUST READ!"

Tara stopped reading, her vision blurred by tears. This was the first person to ever make her cry this much. She wiped her eyes and looked around the room for a pad of paper and a pen.

She was successful in finding one and wrote a letter to Legolas,

Dear Legolas,

My love, by the time you get this...I'll hopefully be gone, for you have been denying yourself something, haven't you? It's too bad...Your soo sad, I wish you could've had what I had. Your seemingly still in love with Lilly. So I will not hold you back, here's your ring. And the necklace you gave me. Well I must say it was fun while it lasted huh? So what are you givin up for me? What shall I give up for you? Well, forget me...I've givin up PLENTY for you. More than enough. And by the way...I'm not dumb. And you apperently do not love me, or you wouldn't think badly about me, or want to take the engagement offer back...That's right, I read your ledger, and perhaps I did not like what I saw.

You've made a mistake Greenleaf, I'd lead your country well. I'd support you, and promote you. But it's too late now, you can't take words back. If you could...I wouldn't have said yes, to marrying you. You make me weak, you know that? Your the first man, living being, to make me cry this much...I didn't even cry this much when my horse died, and we were close, Legolas. I guess I made a mistake. This reminds me of a song. But I'll try not to be dumb, and not mention it. But one thing I can say is, Oh it's sad when a love affair dies, but when we were hot we were hot...Our passion was just too intense to survive...Which means...Buh Bye.

Love you, well not really now that I've read your ledger. Taraneth, Daughter of Aragorn and Arwen...And damned proud of it too.

She smiled through tears, and marched to her room.

She gathered her things quickly. She looked at her pack, "Clothes, Check, Shoes, Check, Dagger, Sword, Check...uh....let's see...Food...No check...That's about it." She slung her pack onto her back, *Wow that rhymed!* and walked through the hallway with a cold face. Tara strode into the kitchen and grabbed two weeks of rations from the cabnet.

Next she went to the stables,

She grabbed her horse, Emerald. (Here's what the horse would look like, http://www.ziplink.net/~bmcslord/pinto.jpg Note this it not my horse!!!)

Taraneth had never felt so down in her life, she was alone. Emerald got into a steady pace until they reached the gates.

"M'lady where are you going?" The guard asked.

"None of your concern, now please open the gates." She replied sweetly.

"I am afraid that I cannot." Jasues replied.

"Well, then you'll have a dagger in your head if you do not open the damned gates." Tara said calmly.

The guard shakly opened the gates, and Emerald and Tara left Mirkwood at full gallop.
