First we would like to say a big thank you to all our reviewers. I can't
believe we're up to over fifty. That's the first time that either of us
have got up that high and it makes us so excited. Yay yay yay! Thank you
for reviewing whether you liked it or not. ( Yes, it's a short chapter,
but we promise that the next one will be quite long. Also we apologise that
it has been a long time since we've updated, but that's my (Belle Bing's)
fault. Prelim's for the HSC has given me a bigger workload than I'm used
to, but we'll still keep writing.
So, please read and review, and all flames will be used to cook our dinners.

Chapter 7
Legolas approached Maewyn's healing chamber with mixed emotions. Should he apologise? After all, it was his fault that Maewyn ran away, but on the other hand, he did see Maewyn with another elf, and surely things weren't as innocent as she said.
Legolas contemplated these thoughts as he reached Maewyn's room. The sight that met him was of Estel and Arwen in deep discussion.
Arwen turned and watched Legolas arrive. Walking away from Estel, she allowed Legolas to speak alone with him.
"How does she fair?" Legolas asked softly.
"Not good." Estel sighed, tears brimming in his eyes. "It has been two weeks Legolas, two weeks. She has not even shown any sign of improvement." Legolas embraced his friend, his self-esteem plummeting rapidly. The pessimistic side of his conscience won out. It was his fault that Maewyn was laying in there, and he knew it.
"This is all my fault. I am sorry." Legolas said when he broke the embrace, casting his eyes to the floor.
"T'is not your fault." Estel said gently, "You know what a short temper Maewyn has, sooner or later, something was going to set her off."
"Do not lie for my sake Estel." Legolas said, voice unwavering. "Please, our friendship should mean more to you than that."
It was at this moment, that Elrond appeared exiting Maewyn's chambers, closely followed by the blonde elf they had come to know as Haldir. Confusion flowed through Legolas as he watched the two come towards them.
"How is Maewyn's condition?" Estel eagerly asked.
"The situation has not changed. I am afraid she has become drastically worse." Elrond explained, lowering his head.
Tears formed in Estel's eyes. He was losing his best friend.
Legolas remained composed, but shock was beginning to overwhelm him.
"But there is still hope." Haldir said hastily but firmly. Legolas and Estel lifted their heads and looked at the elf.
"How?" Legolas asked dubiously.
"The lady Galadriel can cure her condition." Elrond explained, "but she will have to stay in Lothlorien for an extended period of time."
Legolas turned to stare at Elrond.
"Is it wise to move her?" He asked, "Lothlorien is quite a journey from here." Elrond nodded.
"Haldir is riding back to 'Lorien to prepare the lady Galadriel. He shall leave this afternoon." Haldir nodded his head, confirming Lord Elrond's statement, while relief swept over Estel's features.
Estel and Haldir left presumably to prepare Haldir for his journey. Legolas stepped forward, to see Maewyn for himself, but Elrond held up his hand when Legolas was mid stride.
"She shall have no more visitors today."
~*~*~*~*~
We've had some reviewers that were confused about where Maewyn ended up when she ran away. She ran for quite a while (two days I think) and ended up far from the borders of Rivendell. Haldir found her and brought her back.
Does that clear it up?
Please review.
