"Legolas," Merry said, "We're hungry!"  Legolas sighed.  He wasn't very accustomed to cooking but it didn't look like the hobbits would ever stop begging for food so it looked as if he was going to have to resort to searching through the pantry for something for them to eat. 

Legolas started searching through the pantry with the two younger hobbits at his side, constantly complaining how they were going to die of starvation.  He went through the pantry as careful as he could, finding nothing but spices and some odd-looking kitchen tools.  He searched the top shelf once more, finally finding food.  It was a bar of chocolate; something Legolas was sure was a rare treat for hobbits. He also wasn't sure how good it was for a two little hobbits to devour a bar of chocolate, as he was sure these two could accomplish.  However, he decided to ask "Do you eat chocolate often?" to the young hobbits.

Poppy and Merry looked at each other and thought deeply.  Not many hobbits ate chocolate often, in fact no one that they knew did, but Legolas had asked if they ate chocolate often, and seeing as not many hobbits in the Shire had even tasted chocolate, they figured that among hobbits it must be considered that they had chocolate often.  Poppy looked at Merry, smiling and knowing that their brains had came to the same conclusion, hers maybe just a few seconds behind her older cousins. 

"Yes, we do eat chocolate often."  Merry said, looking as innocent as only he could when he was lying.  Legolas knew he could either deal with constant complaints or take their word and let them eat the chocolate.  He decided with the latter and a few minutes later were watching the two devour the chocolate so fast he had to remind them to chew.  Just as Poppy was licking the melted chocolate from her fingers the kitchen door opened, and in front stood a figure in black.  Legolas protectively pushed the little ones behind him and stared in shock at the figure.  "It couldn't be that these foul creatures could still be living, could it?" Legolas thought to himself. 

After what seemed like hours of standing and having a stare down with what he thought was a reincarnated wraith, he became shocked as Gandalf, Gimli, Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin, and all the other hobbits walked through the door, smiling at the figure.  Before he could examine the rest to see if they had somehow been brainwashed, the figure took his black hood off from his head and said, "It's good to see you again, Legolas son of Thranduil."
