.A/N: 'Ello, 'ello!! Sup people? I HAVE THE ENDING OF THE STORY ALL THOUGHT UP!!! YAY YAY YAYNESS! I'm so happy cuz it took me a looong time to think it up! And I have to say: CONGRATS TO ME AND MELANIE FOR FINISHING OUR FIRST STORY! (Pain and Sorrow!) Anyways, here we go, one of the last chapters...

Diena could hear birds singing. She opened her eyes and stretched her arms up over her head. As always, it was a gorgeous day in Lothlorien. Diena wiped her bright blue eyes to clear what little sleep was left in them.

She started to wander along the invisible paths that wound through the trees. After a while she came to the pool she had fallen into yesterday. Legolas was standing up to his chest in water, looking at her, having heard her before she had come into sight.

He threw a grin in her direction. She sat down on the edge of the pool and put her feet into it.

"Diena, the Lady told me you had an important decision to make. She told me that although I wouldn't interfere, unconsciously, I would affect your decision. Don't make the wrong decision on my behalf, please!"

Diena took one look at the desperate look in Legolas' eyes and almost started laughing. She reached out, a small smile playing on her features, and touched his cheek gently with her hand. Legolas had a bigger effect on her decision than he probably even knew. He didn't even know what decision she had to make.

When he saw the reassuring look on Diena's face, Legolas grinned and reached up to her so she could help him out of the water. As soon as she grabbed his hand, he pulled and she went shrieking and flying into the pool of water.

Legolas caught her before she could hurt herself but she came up spitting out a mouthful of water.

"Legolas!!!" she yelled, indignant.

He laughed as he held her around her thin waist. Soon she started laughing along with him and they were both standing in water past their waists, laughing like retards. Several elves passed by, gave them weird looks, and hurried on.

Softly, Legolas kissed Diena. And after several seconds, there was no laughter left, only passion.

"Haldir? Have you seen Galadriel anywhere around here?"

Haldir turned and smiled when he saw Diena.

"Diena! In fact, the Lady was just asking for you! Come, I will take you to her."

Haldir took Diena's arm and led her back to the clearing she had been in yesterday. Diena saw the same stone basin with the water fall. The same bench and stairs and trees.

This time, Galadriel was waiting for Diena beside the water. She motioned for Haldir to leave and then waved Diena over. Slowly, eyeing the water, Diena walked over.

"You have made your decision." When Galadriel said this it didn't sound like a question.

"Yes," said Diena, taking a deep breath, "I have decided that my path no longer takes me in the direction of a human. I wish to become an elf."

There was a smile on Galadriel's face when she heard Diena's decision. She waved her over to the pond and cautiously Diena walked over.

"Look into the water."

Swallowing, Diena looked in. This time, she saw nothing frightening, but herself (A/N: Hahaha, she's scary!). Except, she was different. Her ears curved up into a delicate point, and her eyes had darkened. On her neck, along with her Grandmother's necklace, was her own. It was a blue pendant, had no definite shape, and yet, was the most beautiful necklace Diena had seen in her entire life. Almost against her will she started to reach out to touch the water. Right before her hands touched, she realized that this might not be the right thing to do. She looked at Galadriel, who nodded.

Again Diena reached out her hand. When it came in contact with the water, she found it very cold, yet pleasant at the same time. The water came up over her hand and when it reached her wrist, her hand came in contact with the pendant of the necklace.

Diena pulled her hand out as fast as she could. She was breathing hard for some unknown reason.

In her open palm, the necklace reflected the light, looking gorgeous. Watching it, Diena forgot everything. Why she was there, what she was doing, what she needed to do next.

Gently, Galadriel took the jewellery from Diena. She walked behind her and moved Diena's wavy, dark hair out of the way. After clasping the necklace onto her, the Lady moved around to look at it.

"This does not belong here any longer."

Again, she went behind Diena but this time she took off Diena's Grandmother's necklace.

"No!" cried Diena, who had gotten quite attached to it, despite herself.

A small smile crossed Galadriel's face.

"Alright. Let it always be a reminder to you. When you hold the life a human in your hands, think back. Think back, and remember. You were once human too. It will remind you always of the day you gave up your human life. The day you became one of us. One of the Eldar."

"I will remember. Always."

Galadriel reached out to clasp one of Diena's hands. As soon as the elf's hand touched the human's, there was a feeling of warmth in Diena's hand. It flowed up her arm and settled in her chest. Things started to get fuzzy and she saw black spots.

Diena collapsed. When she opened her eyes, the could see the stars. Not how she normally saw them. This time, she really saw them. Brighter than ever before.

And now she could hear the elven songs being sung in the distance. It was beautiful!

She slowly stood up. Diena started to walk and she then realized how light she felt on her feet. She felt like she could run for days without any food or rest and not even be tired at the end of it. Diena was amazed. Did all elves feel like this all the time?

When she reached up to touch her ears, she could feel a point on the top. It was more sensitive than before. The feeling was weird and she was astonished.

Galadriel smiled at her amazement. Quietly, she suggested she run along and find Legolas and tell him the news.

Diena did just that. She could hear him coming before she saw him. It sounded like he was several feet away. But after waiting for him to appear, it seemed like he was farther away than she had thought.

"Diena, what happened?!"

A huge smile appeared on her face while she looked at Legolas' shocked face. He recognized one of his kind at once. But this wasn't the Diena he knew. Diena's eyes were several shades lighter and her ears were round, not pointed!

"Legolas! It's me! Don't look so shocked, it's still me!" Diena tried to explain.

But Legolas didn't want to hear that. "What? How? How did this happen Diena? 'Tis not possible for humans to become elven kind!"

Diena laughed and decided to put him out of his misery. She explained how she had been a half-elven and the Lady had given her the choice of staying human or becoming and elf.

"The choice. The one the Lady told me not to interfere in. This was it, was it not?"

All Legolas got as a reply was a nod. Then, suddenly, he grinned.

"Come. We must go for a walk so I can discover this new Diena," he said and took her hand. Gently he pulled her along until they reached a place quite a ways from the centre of Lothlorien. The trees were sparser and bigger here.

Legolas slowly pulled Diena closer to him.

"We can spend eternity and longer together now, melamin," he whispered in her ear.

She nodded and kissed him softly. Suddenly Legolas broke off with a cry of pain. He clutched his shoulder. There was an arrow protruding from it.

"Legolas," Diena cried as she held him and he slowly fell to the ground, "No! Stay with me! Please!"

There was a crunch of a twig that she wouldn't have heard, had she been human. Diena looked up.

Malechnian.

If someone thought she could look deadly as a human, the elven Diena looked thrice as deadly. Her darker eyes and heightened senses not only made her move more gracefully but also labelled her as a potential predator and threat.

Legolas' breathing was raspy. She kissed his forehead and squeezed his hand before standing up to face Malechnian. His gorgeous blue eyes were half closed and he was gritting his teeth like he was in pain.

Without breaking eye contact with Malechnian, Diena slid her hand over the ground and picked up Legolas' bow that he had had on him only by chance. There was only one arrow in the quiver. The rest had scattered and were too far away for Diena to reach.

"I have missed you Diena. Perhaps you were getting too comfortable without me for several weeks. I thought you needed a reminder that I was still here. But here is my genius plan: That arrow in your beautiful prince's shoulder is poisonous. He will die within the hour, make no mistake. A scout, that foul Haldir no doubt, will find his body. You will be no where to be found! They will presume you have gone mad run off. But I will have taken you! You will be mine... forever."

Anger was coursing through Diena. Anger like she had never felt before in her life. She brought the bow up, loaded with an arrow.

Now Malechnian was not stupid. He knew that Legolas had taught her to shoot, and taught her well no doubt. Without a second thought, he made a mad dash to Legolas' moaning form. Grabbing him around the neck and placing an elvish blade against the blonde elf's neck, he backed up.

"Now, now Diena. We don't want to do anything stupid do we? Your little lover here would be dead before you could release the arrow."

You have to shoot, even if the risk is hitting someone you care for.

Diena remembered what Legolas had told her. He had told her that you have to shoot to save someone even if there was a chance of hitting them. Then they might have a fighting chance.

Faster than anyone thought possible, Diena drew her arm back and released an arrow. It's aim was true.

Malechnian was hit in the middle of the neck. His body crumpled to the ground, bringing Legolas with him. Diena let out a strangled cry and ran forward to Legolas.

She brushed his hair off his face.

"Diena. I love you. You are the sun, moon and air to me. Without you, I would never have known true happiness. I am off to the Valar. I will wait for you. I would wait forever. Do not forget me!" Legolas started to cough.

"No! Legolas! I need you! Please, don't leave me! What happened to spending eternity together? You can't leave me here alone!! I will die without you!" Tears coursed down Diena's face.

Legolas grabbed her hand and brought it to his lips to place a soft kiss on her palm. He pulled Diena's face closer and placed a small kiss on her lips.

Sobs started to wrack Diena's body. "I love you Legolas. I will never love anyone like I love you. You are my one and only."

A small smile crossed his face before his body tensed up. He let out a moan of pain and then went limp.

Diena sat in the middle of the forest, cradling Legolas' dead body, crying and sobbing. She started to scream at the top of her lungs. Finally, she stopped screaming long enough to take a breath.

Exhaustion took over and she passed out.

A/N: OOOH!! How many stories have you read where Legolas has died?! Ahaha NONE! Well, probably. Poor him. Too hot to die! But y'know, plot development and all. Only one, maybe two more chapters left!! Keep Reviewing you guys!
