title: The missing Girl
Chapter two: Ambarto
Ashleigh led Legolas to her house. It was quite difficult because of his drawing an arrow everytime the wind blew. When they at last came to her front door, without any help from the dogs who were going insane, she was relieved to find that the cars were in the garage. this strange character would probably have passed out if confronted by a red jeep. She opened her front door and peeked in.
"Okay, come on i'll show you to the telephone." she said easing it open and creeping into her room. Legolas obediantly followed, eyes wide as saucers. She closed and locked her bedroom door and handed him the phone. He looked at it curiously. She pushed the talk button and a light hum filled the room. Legolas jumped four feet into the air and drew his bow once again.
"What the fuck is your prob-" she was cut off by her phone being kncoked clean out of her hand and busting on the wooden floor, an arrow stuck straight through it. She was just about to inform him he was going to pay for that when she noticed he had left her side to look at the poster on her wall.
"Where did you get this milady? It is excuisitly detailed..." he ran a slender finger down, tracing a river on the map.
"It's my brother Clif's. He's into that 'Lord of the Things' bullcrap or whatever it's called... I thought it was cool so i hung it up."
"This Clife..." she smiled at the pronunciation, "He is here?"
"Yea... but I doubt he'll see you. He's probably on his phone chattin it up with Jacey Curd..." He walked stealthily from the room, heading down the hallway.
"Well, hang on a sec, you don't even know where you are going. Hell, just follow the music." Legolas opened a door and loud punkrock filled the air. A boy of eighteen sat on a bed, staring at a magazine, periodically saying "uh-huh" to the phone. Ashleigh cleared her throat and he looked up. Pale as a ghost he dropped the phone. A high-pitched "Clif? Clif? Hello!?!?" could be heard from the floor.
"You're-You're-You're..."Clif stood up and turned off the CD player.
"I am Legolas Greenleaf, Son of-"
"Theranduil, Lord of Mirkwood." Clif completed, walking over to the elf. He reached up a hand and tugged at his ear. Legolas looked confused and jerked away.
"You're in my room. You're on earth. You're real. you're-"
"Getting on my nerves." Ashleigh said and put her hands on her hips. "You know him?"
"He's only the most famous elf since his father!" he almost squealed. Ashleigh burst out laughing.
"Elf... Geez what is this some sort of elaborate joke. lemme guess, a bunch of your friends are under the bed." she walked over and looked under, only to find old records and a guitar case. She looked at him, not the least bit dismayed and started looking in every crevice of his room. Meanwhile, he and Legolas were discussing something she couldn't understand, although she heard "Back to Middle-Earth" and "Gandalf"
"Alright Clif-wad, you got me. I can't find anyone."
"Ash, I'm telling you it's not a joke, he's the prince of Mirkwood, in Middle-Earth."
"Prove it." she scoffed, getting tired of her older brother's childish games. Legolas and Clif exchanged a glance and then Legolas told her to point at something outside of Clif's window. She picked an apple tree about 20 feet away. Clif opened the window and Legolas raised his bow. Quicker than lightning, he shot five arrows one down the middle of the other straight into the middle of a knot on the tree's trunk. Ashleigh, still not convinced just stared at him.
"So what if you're into archery. Don't you have something like a magic knife or something???" Legolas looked at her and then smiled. He leaned out the window and began saying something in that weird language again. or was he singing? She gasped as hundreds of birds came flying towards the house. Cardinals, chickadees, humming birds. He said something softly, "Aiwe Kambe Nendili." and a large white dove landed gracefully on Ashleigh's hand. It cooed quietly and was answered by another which alighted beside it. Ashleigh just stood in shock. They couldn't have been telling the truth, and yet... There she stood. Beside a stranger with pointed ears and long blonde hair. Who spoke in a funny language. Who could summon birds. Who had been in the woods. Who spoke of odd things. Who didn't know what a telephone was.
She blacked out.
!*~*~*~*~!
When she came to, she was lying in Clif's bed, Legolas sitting beside her brother on it's edge. Seeing them next to each other, she was shocked to see how grungy Clif looked. She had always thought her brother was "a catch" but next to an elf... Did she say elf? Elves aren't real. But there one sat. They were looking in a book called "Travel Troubles: how to go away or come back, by Ginny Malfoy" They seemed excited and Clif was reading quite quickly. Legolas looked over at her and smiled again. His smiles were strange to her. They conveyed confusion. When he smiled at Clif it showed a happiness, like when you win at that stupid duck game at the fair. But when he smiled at her, his eyes questioned her, as if there were something he didn't understand. She yawned and then streched.
"Did i miss something?" she asked sleepily.
"Yea, we found out how to send him back."
"Oh." she said, for a reason she didn't understand, she felt resentment. She didn't want him to go.
"Aha! The Spell. We have to go back up in the woods to where you came from."
*******************
They walked back up the hill to a clearing in the bush and trees and stood there.
"Well Nendili, it has been a pleasure in our meeting... Perhaps one day, I might find you again?" he bent down and lay a gentle kiss between her eyes. She blushed a bright crimson and just nodded. Clif looked at her sideways and smiled. He then walked over to Clif and shook his hand, "And you Clife, thank you for finding this spell."
"It's been an honor to meet you, and I hope this works." Clif then began telling him what to do.
"Stand there and close your eyes..." Clif then began reading something in that weird language again.
"Ambarto Ernil Edro!"
Light swam in from every direction and knocked Ashleigh to the ground. She found herself enveloped in darkness and then by sound.
And all Ashleigh knew when the light dimmed was that she felt new... And was in someone's arms.
