Chapter Two:
Legolas was running out of time. If the people of middle earth were not ready for this attack then their future would be doomed to failure. He was feeling weak, as he had been riding all night. It was dusk the next day, he would reach Rivendell in the latest hour of the night.
He was starting to feel weak, the loss of blood must be taking its toll, though Legolas knew he would need to bleed for days before he would die of blood loss. Being an elf meant he could heal faster and that didn't seem like a possibility. The only thoughts racing through his mind were 'I have to get there'. If these visions and dreams meant that this was the end of middle earth, he could not live with himself it he did nothing. His surroundings were getting darker by the second as his horse galloped over the grass.
Finally, Legolas could see the gates fo Rivendell in the distance, he was almost there. As soon as he reached the gates, he was approached by two elves who looked exactly like one another.
"Legolas, what are you doing here? I thought that you could not come?" Elladan asked.
"Why are you arriving so late in the night?" Elrohir inquired.
"I have no time to explain, I need to see your father at once." Legolas spoke in haste.
The twins nodded and led the way to the House of Elrond. They walked through the doors of Elronds study with out a knock, they found him sitting at a large desk.
"Legolas, what is it?" Elrond asked, sensing something was wrong.
"Something is coming." Legolas said, not careing that the twins were still in the room.
"I have sensed it too, Legolas. Something bad is going to happen." Elrond was always amazed at how in tune Legolas's senses were. "I have not only sensed it, I have seen it. I have seen the creature that wishes to destroy Middle Earth." Spoke Legolas. Elrond rose from his desk.
"You have met Asis?" Legolas's eyebrows shot up in surprise.
"Yes, how.."
"It was long ago when he was banished from middle earth, I was there. I felt him return and I knew it was not good. What did he say?" Elrond asked.
"well, I did not 'exactly' meet him in the flesh. I- I met him in my dream." Legolas knew it was sound incredibly stupid to Lord Elrond, and was surprised yet again when he understood.
"Yes Asis has the power to enter a dream."
"He said, that he wanted to rule middle earth and gain revenge." Said Legolas.
"Have you seen anything else?" asked the Elf lord as he walked over to a book shelf and pulled out a large stone book. Just as he asked, Gandalf walked into the room.
"Yes Legolas, what else have you seen?" Legolas and the twins jumped when they heard Gandalf's voice.
"I had a- a vision." Gandalf and Elrond's heads whipped around and looked at Legolas with expressions of the upmost seriousness.
"You had a vision?" Gandalf asked, "Was it painful?" Legolas nodded and Elrond and Gandalf exchanged glances.
"It is as I feared." Elrond spoke to Gandalf.
"The prophecy is coming true."
"hem hem." Elladan cleared his throat in the hopes that the older and wiser members of their little group would shed some light on to the subject. He was ignored.
"But that must mean that Legolas."
"Yes he is the only one who can stop Asis."
"He will need companions to go with him."
"We can ask the fellowship."
"Yes of course the Fellowship" "EXCUSE ME!" Said Legolas loudly. When Elrond and Gandalf turned, he continued.
"Could you please tell me what you are talking about?"
"Thousands of years ago, before Sauron's rise of power, there was another threat. A very powerful man named Asis wished to rule over Middle Earth. He told the Elflords and the Istaris that there should be one ruler over all the races. But none of them agreed, Asis tried to take middle Earth by force but was defeated. Before he was banished from middle earth he made a vow that he would return and take over all of the races and land of middle earth. That vow gradually turned into a prophecy, and the prophecy is the only thing that will stop him." Explained Gandalf.
"What prophecy?" Elrohir asked, curiously.
"The prophecy is that when the dark creature returns, only the one who sees without seeing can defeat him." Said Elrond, earning him three, very confused looks.
"Legolas is the only one who can defeat him." Said Gandalf.
"Why me?" he asked.
"Because you are the one that 'sees with out seeing'."
"What does that mean?" Elladan asked from behind Legolas.
"It means that Legolas can see what will happen before it happens in front of his eyes." Spoke Elrond.
"How would I defeat him?" asked Legolas, still very confused.
"Ah, well, we are not entirely sure of that." Gandalf said looking over to Elrond.
"WHAT?!" spoke all three of the young elves at once.
"What do you mean you don't know?"
"Well there is a riddle but no one has yet discovered its meaning." Explained Elrond.
"What is the riddle?" Elrohir inquired.
"it is shot by the one, all is undone, with the arrow of sun." said Gandalf.
"what does it mean?" Elladan asked. Everyone looked at him.
"We just explained that we didn't know the answer to that question, young Elladan." Gandalf said. "Okay so I must defeat a creature, by the means told in a riddle, that I can not understand?"Legolas was incredibly annoyed by this.
"Well. yes."
"You must leave as soon as possible." Said Elrond, "In the morning we shall ask the fellowship if any of them would like to accompany you. But now they are all asleep, as should you be. Elladan, Elrohir get to bed. Legolas you will come with me to be healed."
Legolas was always amazed that Lord Elrond always knew when he was hurt.
As the sun came up, Legolas was yet to sleep, he did not wish to dream. He made his way to breakfast, he was keen to greet the others, he had not seen them in so long. Legolas stopped in the doorway and looked at the fellowship. The hobbits were reaching over the table and snatching up more food, Pippin was stealing food off of Gimli's plate while he spoke with Arwen. Aragorn was leaning back in his chair, looking at the ceiling, occasionally slapping the hand of a hobbit who was coming to close to his food plate.
Legolas smiled, he missed his friends, it had been so long sinces they were all together. As he leaned in the doorframe, watching the clattering and noisy fellowship who was yet to notice him, Aragorn turned his head to the side and almost fell off his chair. The hobbits laughed and but gave curious expressions when Aragorn leaped from his seat and ran towards the doorway.
Aragorn jumped at Legolas and gave him a huge hug.
"I have missed you much mellonnin." Spoke Aragorn.
"I have missed you aswell Estel." Legolas smiled. The rest of the Fellowship had stopped eating as soon as they saw Legolas they leaped out of their chairs, much like Aragorn had done, and ran over to greet the last member of the fellowship.
"Master Elf, it has been too long." Said Gimli as Legolas got on his knees to hug him.
The hobbits ran up next and Legolas was bombarded with four hugs at once.
"We have not seen you in so long Legolas."Said Merry.
"I have missed you all." Legolas said back. He then gave Arwen a hug and the fellowship dragged him down to their table and sat him down.
"When did you arrive?" Aragorn asked.
"Very early this morning." Answered Legolas.
"It is so good to see you again." Spoke Aragorn, "Why have you not come to visit in so long?" He had a hurt expression on his face.
"It was not my intention to leave for so long with out seeing any of you," said Legolas, "I was away exploring Mordor." The hobbits winced.
"How could you go back there?" Frodo asked.
"Well there is a legend that there is something on the other side of Mordor" Legolas explained.
"Really?" Pippin's eyes were alight with wonder. Legolas just smiled and ruffled his hair.
Their conversation went on for quite awhile until they were summonded to Lord Elrond's study. The hobbits sat down on the floor with Gimli, Legolas stood at the back, knowing full well what this meeting was about, and Aragorn and Arwen sat down in the two chairs in the room, speaking in curious voices. Elrond entered the room with Gandalf and walked to his desk.
"I have a question for you all." He said, "There is a new threat to Middle Earth. Someone needs to stop it." As soon as he said this, Legolas had the idea that Lord Elrond was not going to tell them all that he had told Legolas and the twins last night.
"What kind of threat?" Aragorn asked.
"A creature, long forgotten has returned to take over, this can not happen. If it does, most of the population of Middle earth will be destroyed." Gandalf clarified.
"What kind of creature is this?" Sam asked, looking quite curious.
"No one knows. After he was bannished from middle earth, years ago, he changed into a creature that not even the creator can classify." Elrond accounted.
The hobbits gave a scared expression that changed quickly back to calm.
"It is not your duty to go, you do not have to." Gandalf announced.
"I will go." Aragorn volunteered, receiving a look from Arwen.
"I too will go." Said Gimli.
"I miss adventure, I will go aswell." Said Frodo.
"If Frodo's going then so am I" Sam announced.
"Me too." Pippin told the others, in a noble voice. Merry rolled his eyes. "And me." He said.
"Excellent, the entire Fellowship is going." Gandalf articulated.
"What about Legolas?" Sam asked.
"He volunteered last night." Explained Elrond. Legolas rolled his eyes, he didn't exactly 'volunteer'.
Aragorn spun around in his chair. "You knew?"
Legolas nodded and winked.
"We're coming aswell." Stated a voice from behind Legolas. He turned and saw the twins standing in the doorway.
"Excellent, though we must leave soon I'm afraid." Gandalf said. Getting him many curious looks from the fellowship but he raised his hand to stop the questions.
"Tomorrow morning, we shall set out."
TBC..
I think that this is the longest chapter I have ever written. Wow. REVIEW PLEASE.
