Gimli cautiously approached Legolas; not that it did him any good since Legolas could hear him coming. "What is wrong my friend. You look like you found the world's largest cache of mithrille only to be told that you couldn't have even a bit of it," said Legolas. " I have come to talk to you about something and I think it would be wise of you to listen" said Gimli. " I'm wise whether I listen to you or not," retorted Legolas " but I'll listen to you only if it isn't about Ari." " Who is Ari," asked Gimli, " Oh I get it, you mean Hikari. Why do you call her Ari?" " That is none of your concern" stated Legolas. " Well" started Gimli " At least hear me out. My conclusion is well founded I'll have you know." " I won't. You've been talking to Aragorn haven't you! He put these suspicions in your thick head. I thought that you at least would understand! But I guess not. It seems that there is nobody that will let my decision be my own. Your both just like my father" said Legolas. And with that, he stalked off to climb a tree and think.

"How did it go?" asked Aragorn. " Not very well I'm afraid," said Gimli. " He wouldn't even hear me out. He said that we are just like his father." " Curse the stubbornness of elves. And Legolas even more so. He gets his stubbornness from his father" said Aragorn. " It seems that we will have to find a way to show him that what we say is true."

Each night after that they plotted a way to make Legolas see the truth. Little did they know who overheard every word.

Wollfe: Thanks for being the first person to review. It makes me think that my story is worthwhile.

XxDarkGoddessxX: I tried to put more detail into this chapter, but if I should put more in please let me know. Thanks for reviewing. ([Blushes] I'm a fan of Legolas too, but keep it secret.; D)
