Chapter Four-Memories and Gathering

~~~Dream of Legolas~~~

"Hahahaha! I knew you would fall for that trick! You should've seen your face, Legolas! Haha, you were so scared that I thought you were gonna run all the way back to the kingdom!"

"Not funny, not funny at all, but I must admit, your monster faces are getting more and more realistic and scarier! Haha, but you are certainly too beautiful to really make any kind of a monster face, milady!" Legolas replied, teasingly.

Lenna blushed, and Legolas laughed, suddenly running up to Lenna, picking her up, and swinging in circles in the air playfully. Lenna laughed and begged Legolas to stop, eventually, the pair stopped, kissed, and started walking around the forest, hand-in-hand. Then, they sat down on the fresh green grass under a big blossom tree. They talked and shared loving words to each other, Legolas turned around, and spotted a beautiful white rose.

He picked it up, and turned back to his lover, Lenna, she gasped and smiled, saying, "It's beautiful! I love flowers, they're so.well.beautiful!" Then, without another work, Legolas inserted the flower into Lenna's hair, he sighed contently.

"You are more beautiful than anything in this entire universe, my love. You are like the bright sun, shining its warm rays on me, giving me warmth and comfort and happiness, you are like the moon, pale and beautiful, emitting feeling of joy and thoughtfulness to others. You are also like the stars, shining brightly most of the time, sometimes, the light is faded away, and your spirit is dimmed, but later, it will come back, shining brighter than ever. You are my heavenly angel, like, me, you are strong and wise, haha, and yet, inside, you are as soft as a cloud. I wonder what I did to deserve someone as special and perfect as you, my love, mela nin"

"Nay, I wonder what I did to deserve someone as special and perfect as you. You are so handsome, my beautiful elf, my prince, my love. I love you so much. You are everything and more to me, you are my guardian angel. Haha, and yes, you are very wise and strong, yet, your heart is that of a rabbit, kind and caring. You are a bold one, Legolas, and I love you for it, mela nin." Lenna replied. Then they embraced each other, and kissed, exchanging loving and longing gazes.

~~~End dream~~~

Legolas moaned painfully, and opened his eyes very slowly, once opened, he looked around, trying to adjust his eyes to the bright sunlight. Soon, he discovered that he was alone in a room of what seemed to be in Helms Deep. Legolas remembered the dream, 'That was no dream, it was real, it was one of my past memories!' Legolas sighed, and thought, 'I'm sorry Lenna, I didn't mean to say the things I said, I'm terribly sorry!'

~~~Flashback~~~

"Legolas, your father, he was so.annoying and rude! Nosy too! I'm sorry, but he has been very rude to me! King Thranduil has always been a great man, what happened to him?!" Lenna asked.

"My father was anything but rude, he was just giving his input on things-"

"Yes, our PERSONAL things!"

"He was giving his input, and he was extremely polite! If anyone is annoying, it would be your father! He's so rude, self-centered, annoying, irritating, a liar, and might I add, a total fraud!"

-SLAP-

"How DARE you say those terrible things about my father?! You know that what he did was an accident! You understood! Well, that's what you said, I can't believe you! I bet you got your rudeness and stubbornness from your father! You know what they say, like father, like son!"

"If you were wise, you would shut your mouth and never open it again! I bet you got all of your bad qualities, which is everything, might I add, and DISGUSTING personality from you father, and your whole family, including your ancestors! You suck-up, get the hell out of my kingdom! I hate people who insult my father!" Legolas could feel rage boiling inside of him. Lenna stared at him hard, with angry yet sad eyes, and laughed a cruel laugh.

"If you thought that I would stay, then I suggest you get your thinking straight! I will leave, and I will never come back! Enjoy your lonely and pathetic life, PRINCE Legolas of Mirkwood, son of Thranduil!" Lenna replied coldly, she bowed, and stalked off, and ever since then, Lenna has never been seen anywhere in Middle-Earth."

~~~End flashback~~~

Legolas sighed, 'It's been 30 years, I wonder where Lenna went.' Legolas sighed again. 'It's all my fault, as always, oh, I'm sorry, Lenna, I've never stopped loving you.I've regretted my actions from the moment you got on your horse and rushed off. Please come back! I'm so lost and alone without you! Please forgive me!'

Haldir and his horse, Halarim, pranced along the road as fast as the wind, towards Lorien. 'I can't lose him, he my oldest and best friend.' Haldir thought. "Noro lim, Halarim, noro lim!" whispered Haldir in the ears of Halarim. Suddenly, a creature threw itself onto Haldir, knocking him off the horse. It was a goblin, now grinning and snickering, shouting,

"Hey guys, look what I caught! An elf and his horse!" Then, about 30 other goblins appeared out of no where. Haldir kicked the goblin away from him, stood up, and unsheathed his swords, preparing for a fight. But before anyone could make a movement, all of the goblins screeched in pain, and fell down, dead. Haldir, very confused, saw that the goblins were all shot by elvin arrows in the neck. He looked closer, and could see that the arrows' style was that of Lorien. Haldir smiled, and yelled,

"Ah, my friends, come out, 'tis I, General Haldir or Lorien, in the service of Lady Galadriel and Lord Celeborn." Then, about 25-30 other elves came out from the trees, one of them stepped out from the elves, and said,

"General Haldir, the Lady has forseen your coming, and she is not far from here. Come follow me, the Lady is waiting." 'That's my line.' Haldir thought. Afterwards, Haldir and the Lorien elves approached a big, hollow tree. The elf placed his hand gently onto the tree, and whispered an elvish spell. Suddenly, the tree "opened itself", and allowed the elves to enter. The first thing Haldir saw was Lady Galadriel and Lord Celeborn with five other guard elves. Beside them, Haldir saw a beautiful she-elf. She had long blonde hair, a slim figure, and she had blue eyes. But Haldir had never seen her anywhere before, and decided that she probably met up with the Lady. Also, Haldir noticed that the she-elf was the most beautiful being in all of Middle-Earth. He blushed at the thought, and looked back to the Lord and Lady, Haldir bowed.

"I bring a message to you, My Lord and my Lady, from Mithrandir in Helm's Deep." At the mention of Gandalf, the guard elves stared at one another, while Lady Galadriel and Lord Celeborn's faces were calm. Lady Galadriel then said, "We are aware that Mithrandir is alive, I saw it in my mirror. We also know of your message. Legolas of Mirkwood is badly injured, and is dying. Something more serious has befallen him, not just any orc poison. I fell the power of Saruman at work here. Legolas is also very troubled and grieved, but I have yet to know the reason. Come, we must ride to Helm's Deep in haste. There is little time left." With that said, they got out of the tree, onto their horses, and started riding to Helm's Deep.

'Hold on, Legolas, just hold on, we'll help you, you'll get through this, I promise.' Haldir thought.

"Father, Elrohir and I are extremely bored, we know that the war of the ring is approaching, and if we lose, it would be the end of Middle-Earth, but it's approaching a little TOO slow. Can't you send us on a mission where we can fight some orcs? Please father!" Elladan pleaded. Lord Elrond stared at his son at his sudden outburst, and smiled, but before he could reply, a man burst into their room.

"I have a very important message for you, Lord Elrond. From Gandalf the White in Helm's Deep." Lord Elrond and his sons were surprised, (but not because they thought that Gandalf was alive, cause they never knew that Gandalf had fallen into the Shadow before) and Lord Elrond stood to meet the man's gaze.

"What is it? Does Gandalf need reinforcements?"

"Nay, Prince Legolas of Mirkwood is badly injured and poisoned. Gandalf asks for your aid, immediately, or it is said that Prince Legolas will die!" Suddenly, Elladan and Elrohir turned to their father, and pleaded,

"Please father, we must come with you! We are worried about Legolas! He is our friend, and we will be able to help you on your way to Helm's Deep!" Lord Elrond frowned, and sighed.

"All right, but we must set off now. I fear that we are already running out of time." So, they packed their things, and immediately left for Helm's Deep.

A/N: hehe, maybe not so good, but it'll get better.I promise! =D
