THE HEART OF LEGOLAS CHAPTER 9

I envision I am justice Never thought that I could love Living in shadows Fading existence It was never good enough Within the darkness You are the light that shines the way All trapped in violence I can be the man who saves the day

I'm there for you No matter what I'm there for you Never giving up I'm there for you For You

Someone's changed me Something save me And this is who I am Although I was blinded My heart let me find out That truth makes a better man I didn't notice That you were right in front of me Our mask of silence Were put away so we can see

I'm there for you No matter what I'm there for you Never giving up I'm there for you For You

Within the darkness You are the light that shines away In this blind justice I can be that man who saves the day

I'm there for you No matter what I'm there for you Never giving up you know it's true You were there for me And I'm there for you For you For you For you =============================================================

"Glimi and Celalea you stand accused of murder!" Glimi looked at Celalea, She looked as if she wanted to laugh, He had seen that look on the face of Aragorn once before, well a few times if he was honest. "How do you pried? Guilty or not Guilty?" Glimi turned his attention back to Thranduil, a smile playing on his own lips. He really thought he had gotten rid of them. He could understand Thranduil wanting to get rid of him, but Celalea someone he had only just met, he could not understand it. Celalea saw the same smile that Glimi had. Her father had told her about Thranduil. He had told her that Thranduil hated people who where not elves even at that he hated some elves. If they where Mortals, mixed race, Dwarf's, anything unelfen he hated them.

He also hated losing a fight, if he was not winning he was not happy. She did not intend to let him win. "NOT GUILTY!" Mutters went up from around the court has Thranduil shook his head and put on a sad sigh. "In that case if you are found guilty the price will be death. Do you both understand?" Celalea nodded her head "I do" Thranduil looked at Glimi, a look of hated toward the dwarf. Glimi nodded his head also looking right at Thranduil. "I do also" "Very well who is standing for you?" Glimi watched every move Celalea made. He had to keep the smile off his face, hoping that Thranduil would not have a heart-attack when he saw who was standing for them. On second thoughts yes he did. "Who is standing for you?" "Haldir of the golden wood" Celalea answered her face staying stone set. Mixed sounds went up in the court room some laugher, gasps, some tuts of disbelieve. Thranduil stood his face like thunder "Haldir fell years ago he..." "Can rise again my lord" Thranduil and Kesitai looked shocked has Haldir removed his hood stepping forward.

"Glorfindel I need to rest" "Legolas no time come on we need to hurry the trail will have started" Glorfindel put an arm round Legolas helping him stand. Legolas's blue eyes had glazed over again and his breathing had become heavy. "Legolas if you want to safe your friends then you must go on you can not give up they have not given up on you so you can not give up on them!" "I know Glorfindel but I am so Weak I do not know if I can make it" "You must now come there is not much time. Your father will want to get this over has quickly has possibly. I only hope Haldir can hold them off and keep the case going." Legolas's eyes opened he turned to look at Glorfindel his eyes full of disbelieve. "HALDIR? HE IS HERE? HE DIED AT HELMS DEEP!" "Yes and I was killed by a belroc but I stand at the side of you now come"

Kesitai stood in the stand. Haldir turning up had, had the right effect he had lost all of his composer. The golden wood, Mirkwood and Rivendell had not been on the best of terms for a few many years. To have an elf of the golden wood was almost to split in the face of the Mirkwood elves. "Kesitai" "Haldir" A look passed between them a look of pure hated and anger the tension between them you could cut it with a knife. Celalea started to wonder if it had been a good idea of Glorfindels after all has it was clear that these two elves hated each other. "Tell us what you saw the night your bother was found dead?" "You mean murdered don't you?" "Oh I am sorry very well then murdered by Orcs..." "NO murdered by the dwarf and the woman!" "So there was no Orcs?" "None" Kesitai frowned. What was Haldir up to? What did he have planned? Haldir walked over picking up some arrows and a sword warped in coth. "Can you tell me what these are?" "Orc arrows used by the dwarf and woman" "USED BY ORCS my lord" Thranduil stood up "This is an enough kill them" "WAIT! By order of Legolas prince of Mirkwood" Everyone turned round to see Glorfindel holding Legolas up the court went quiet. "Let them go.now" Legolas said his strength coming back. The guards unlocked the handcuffs. Haldir, Celalea and Glimi walked to Glorfindel and Legolas. Celalea hooked Legolas's other arm round her shoulder Legolas help Glorfindel support him. They turned to leave "SON.SON you walk out that door you will be banished and your life forfeit" Legolas turned back "Then that is the way it will be." Without looking back They left the hall.
