Will Remember You by Sarah McLachlan
Chapter Ten: Explanations, Awakening, and Songs
When Legolas saw Gandalf, he saw Aragorn and Gimli as well. 'Well, I got my three people.' He thought. Legolas walked up to the trio.
"I must speak with the three of you privately. I have gotten enough rest, don't argue, do not speak, just come with me, it is a matter of importance." Aragorn and Gimli exchanged looks, and the four of them walked into a private room. There, Legolas told Gandalf, Aragorn and Gimli everything from who Lenna is, how they met, and all of that up to Legolas' talk with Elberath, the necklace, and that they should call Lenna, Larawyn, no matter what.
"What would happen if we called her Lenna?" Aragorn asked.
"Well, if we did, she would be in pain, I don't know why, but that is what Elberath had said. So, we have to pretend that all we know is that her name is Larawyn and she is a wanderer. Okay? We can definitely befriend her, but do not speak of the name Lenna." Legolas explained. They nodded.
"We know, now go back to rest. Legolas, there is much to do, and with Sauron's power growing, we have very little time left." Gandalf said.
"Gandalf is right, crazy elf, you must rest, if you want to kill more than I! It won't be long now, my axe, those wretched Uruk-hai and orcs will soon taste your cold steel and my BURNING passion of killing them!" Gimli said, partly yelled, and bellowed in laughter. Legolas laughed as well.
"Do not worry, stupid dwarf, no matter how much rest I get, I will always kill more than you! Sauron has yet to taste the cold steel of my twin swords and my arrows."
"Nay, Sauron will die by my sword, I will kill the most orcs, and I will be able to beat you, Legolas, for once." Aragorn stated, and smiled. The four laughed, and went to Lord Elrond, Elladan, and Elrohir's rooms to tell them to call Lenna, Larawyn, not matter what, and to think of Larawyn as another person. Then, they went back to their rooms to rest. It was night, the pale, full moon glowed brightly in the dark sky, casting a soft glow on the earth. Surrounded by billions of bright, shining stars. Legolas reached his room, and opened the door, he walked in, and panicked a little when he saw that Lenna was not in her bed, supposedly resting. Legolas ran around Helms Deep, searching. Then, he stopped abruptly, hearing a beautiful voice in the air, singing. Legolas listened carefully.
'That's Lenna's voice!' Legolas thought. Then, he went to the top of Helms Deep, and smiled softly at the sight. Lenna had her hood on again, she was sitting on the edge of the wall, and she was obviously singing with her head high in the air. Legolas smiled in happiness, and listened to her song.
~~~Song~~~
Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always one reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
oh beautiful release
memory seeps from my veins
let me be empty
and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
in the arms of an angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there
so tired of the straight line
and everywhere you turn
there's vultures and thieves at your back
and the storm keeps on twisting
you keep on building the lie
that you make up for all that you lack
it don't make no difference
escaping one last time
it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees
in the arms of an angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here
~~~End Song~~~
Legolas smiled and clapped, Lenna stopped and instantly turned to face Legolas, and gasped in surprise.
"Aren't you, didn't you, die? Am I dead? How can you still be here?" Lenna asked.
"Don't worry, you are not dead, and I am very much alive. I don't know how, but you saved me, you gave me your necklace, and cried for me. I told you, you are someone special. It is nothing bad, I owe you my life, you even relieved me of the big part of my guilt and grief, and for that, I thank you with my heart and soul, Lady Larawyn." Legolas smiled, and walked towards Lenna, he then lifted himself up, and sat on the edge of the wall with Lenna.
"You are most welcome, Prince Legolas, I am glad that you are alive, you may keep that necklace. Yet, I do not know how my tears and necklace resseurected you. Nay, I am not special, I am just a wanderer, and you do not owe me your life. You took that arrow shot for me, I would've died, and you helped yourself through the guilt and grief. I thank you for what you have done for me." Legolas chuckled.
"I am sure you are special, will you take off your hood and sing more for me? I know that you are beautiful beyond words, yet I did not know that you had such a beautiful voice to match. Please, I have never seen such a beautiful being who is so sincere, nice, kind, and has an angelic voice." Lenna blushed a deep shade of red, and paused.
"All right, only because you already saw who I am, and I will sing for you, because you flatter me, Prince Legolas." Lenna chuckled softly, and took off her hood. Legolas gasped slightly because of how beautiful Lenna is. The soft glow of the moon made Lenna look more beautiful, and Legolas remembered exactly how Lenna looked. Lenna smiled, looked to the sky, in the distant, sighed, and sang softly once again.
~~~Song~~~
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
Remember the good times that we had?
I let them slip away from us when things got bad
How clearly I first saw you smilin' in the sun
Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
I'm so tired but I can't sleep
Standin' on the edge of something much too deep
It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word
We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard
But I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to loose
Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose
Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night
You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light
And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
Weep not for the memories
~~~End Song~~~
Legolas stared intently at Lenna. 'She remembers the song! Only Lenna would remember, she made it up, and sang it to me almost every night! Her voice and being is still as angelic and ravishing as I remembered, if not, then more. I want to just hug her and kiss her again, but hold it in, Legolas, would you rather cause Lenna pain?' Legolas thought.
"Is there something wrong, Prince Legolas?" Lenna asked.
"Huh? Oh no, I was just thinking how beautiful your voice sounds. Please, call me Legolas, not Prince Legolas, because I consider you as my friend, and friends don't address me as Prince. Are you not my friend?" Lenna's eyes widened.
"Of course, Legolas, you are my friend, so you must call me Larawyn only, not Lady Larawyn. Okay?" They both laughed.
"All right." Legolas replied, he was very happy right now. Then, Lenna and Legolas talked about Legolas' past, but not Lenna's because she said that she didn't remember. So, Legolas reluctantly started talking about everyone else. When it was going to be dawn in four hours, they decided to go rest in their room, because, as everyone said, it would be a very long and tiring day for all tomorrow.
