Chapter 8
The Attack
Legolas had remained outside of the house, where he met Galadriel, for hours, just admiring the glow of Lothlorien. Of course his mind was filled with regret about how if he could go back... he would do something different. He would go alone and look and have told the rest to watch the horses... he would have battled alongside the female elf and their powers combined would have killed the warrior in black. All these things Legolas would do... but he can't...
A hand grabbed his shoulder and he turned to see his brother, Aduialaha. Worry filled his brother's face and eyes... worry that maybe Legolas didn't make it through.
"You are safe," Aduialaha whispered and pulled Legolas into a hug.
Legolas had never remembered being hugged before by anyone except his mother. His father had never hugged him obviously... and he didn't have very many friends. Aduialaha had given Legolas his first hug for at least thousand years... his mother was probably the last one to do so, and about a thousand years ago was that time of her departure.
Aduialaha pulled away and rested his hands on Legolas' shoulders with a firm grip.
"Galadriel sent word to Mirkwood that you were attacked and only one survived. She didn't tell us who... and I just knew that you were...," Aduialaha started, but didn't finish.
"I am safe brother," Legolas said to him. "I am not even hurt."
"I shall take you back to Mirkwood," Aduialaha told Legolas. "You will remain there."
"But...," Legolas started, but was interupted.
"No buts, Legolas!" He said.
"You are treating me like a child!" Legolas yelled. "I am not a child. I am a man and you treat me as though I can't do anything."
"Well , we now know that you can't even keep one out of seven people alive for more than three days, Legolas," Aduialaha yelled back, but soon listened to what he was saying and regretted it. "I am sorry, Legolas."
"I think you have proven your point, brother," Legolas told him... glaring.
"Just go back to Mirkwood with me, Legolas," Aduialaha told him. "We will decide what you will do at that time."
"As you wish, brother," Legolas replied, still glaring.
"Thank you, Legolas," Aduialaha told him and took his hands off his shoulders.
Aduialaha was about to lead him to his horse and another he had brought with him, but the sound of a battle horn stopped them in their tracks.
"The enemy approaches!" Yelled a voice from high in the trees.
Aduialaha led Legolas over the nearby bridge and over many others until they reached a large complex made of tree and stone... it was the Palace of Lothlorien.
Galadriel was waiting at the top of the steps.
"We are beginning to start the war," she told them. "I never believed they would attack here."
"How many are there?" Aduialaha asked her.
"No more than four hundred," she said. "We can handle them with ease."
"I will aid the battle," Aduialaha said, grabbing the sword at his waist and unsheathing it.
A servant walked through the doors and walked to her Queen. It was as if she called them through her mind, and Legolas didn't doubt that she could do this. The servant held a quiver and bow in her arms and Galadriel pointed at Legolas, and the servant walked up to Legolas and handed them to him.
"No," Aduialaha said, grabbing the items from Legolas' hand. "You will remain here. You shall not battle."
"What?" Legolas asked, outraged.
"Listen to me Legolas!" Aduialaha said and left for the battle plains.
Galadriel calmly walked up to Legolas and stood beside him.
"He cares a lot for you, Leoglas," she said to him. "Maybe it is better if you stay here where it is safe."
"He treats me as if I'm a child," Legolas muttered.
"Maybe it is because you have started over," she said to him. "You and your brother are just now getting to know one another... so he doesn't know your capabilities. You must prove them to him, but maybe fighting isn't the way."
She then walked away from him and went into her palace.
"Oh," Legolas said to himself. "Fighting is the only way I can prove it to him. If I don't he will always look at me like I were without my own mind."
Legolas gripped his hands into a fist and left for the battle field...
