Chapter Three
They soon reached upon a path, hidden from the sight of many; Ennia felt that she was being watched and followed spun around catching the men before they could hide. In her hand, a fireball took its place. She walked forth to Aragorn and the others, looking them up and down. With each inspection, her fireball drew bigger, until it looked like her hand was engulfed in flames. "Who might you be? And why are you on my trail?" Gimli began talking at once "Pardon us lady, we were just walking about and seem to have gotten lost and we.and." he trailed off. Gandalf stepped forward, "Let me explain Ennia, I am Gandalf the White, we were wandering in this land and came upon your match earlier. I was hoping to talk because our enemy seems to be of the same one, and I would like to know what is going on with you good people." Ennia's hood still shield her face, " I do not wish to talk, you are no importance to me and I do not know if you are really friend or foe, leave me at once or I shall be force to unleash this ball." Gandalf chuckled, "Just like your uncle, aren't you? Demanding and strong willed, but perhaps we shall draw to an agreement like I did with him before." "You are a friend of my uncle? What did you say your name was again?" Legolas was angered that she did not catch a name of such importance the first time replied, "He is Gandalf the White, have neither you no ears nor respect?" Ennia turned her attention at once to the Elf, "Who asked you and allowed you to speak? And I suppose you have much more respect as to follow my trail with no word? How would I know you weren't a spy? I don't even know your name Elf." Aragorn spoke for the first time, "No we are no spies, we face the same treacheries I fear, but he indeed is Gandalf the White." Gandalf then stepped forward, "That's enough; let me answer to a question that was addressed to me. As repeated many times, I am Gandalf the White, do you not remember? Little Ennie." Ennia, for the first time, look startled, "How? . Where have you heard that before? How dare you call me by that?" Gandalf started to look weary, "it was a sign of friendship, not challenge, please do not take it the wrong way, I know of this name because I used it before Ennie, I used it among your parents." Ennia was astounded and spoke, "I, I think I remember, I haven't heard that name in ages, for my parents are dead, swallowed by the enemy, but any friends of my parents are friends of mine. Come along we must not speak of such evils here, let us go quick."
They walked for about a quarter hour and they landed in front of a smaller version of the tower they were in before. Ennia led them in and the offered the Company seats. "I am sorry I acted like I did before, but the peaceful land of Simil is not so peaceful anymore. I didn't catch the others' names and I have to do so now." Aragorn began, he did not fear nor doubt as much as Legolas and Gimli did, so he was first to go, "I am Aragorn, son of Arathorn." Legolas, looked at her sideways, thinking, why hasn't she removed her cloak? But as the will of Gandalf, continued, "I am Legolas, prince of Northern Mirkwood." Seeing his friend doing so, Gimli continued, "And I am Gimli son of Gloin." As he spoke, one of his eyes grew smaller as if inspecting her carefully with doubt. "I as you all know, am Ennia, niece of Neokas." She removed her hood, and the rest of the company besides Gandalf drew back, hands upon their weapons. Legolas cried out, "You! I knew it" Before he could do further, Gandalf's voiced boomed across the room, "Put your weapons down, Legolas Greenleaf." Legolas and the others did not protest, they have seen this side of him before, and it was not to be taken lightly. After they all did as told, Ennia explained, "Please, friends, do not mistake me as an enemy. I have the same face as she, but not the same heart. Destiny, she was my sister, my identical sister. That is why many questions come about, but I do not take the path that she does, I rejected that long ago." "But I do not doubt that you are weary, please join me at dinner and we shall discuss this furthermore."
"Ahh.. That we cannot do, my princess. We promised your uncle we would be back over an hour ago. We must depart, or perhaps, you would like to join us?" Gandalf said. "That I shall." replied Ennia. They walked for half hour and approached the palace. During the whole time, Aragorn walked with Gandalf consulting their plans and poor Gimli was left alone. Gandalf would very much like to talk to Ennia, concerning the lost ears between them, but he suspected something between Legolas and Ennia back at her house. He saw Legolas as if he was under a spell staring at Ennia. His suspicions were correct. Legolas, a while back, saw Ennia for who she was for the first time. Her hair running smoothly down her back, pin straight, her lips curls upwards in the most cutest fashion when she smiles, her eyes, brown and deep, not a single thing about her did not mesmerize him. Her little gestures made him smile and he felt strangely heated. His curiosity of her began to grow, yet he seldom spoke a word, for he is rather ashamed at his behavior from before. Gandalf smiled to himself at his own little plan, letting them talk and getting to know each other. He warned Gimli not to bother them. They walked and came upon the same place.
