Chapter 2



The strangers




Three days passed and finally Liena and Aramis arrived around noon. Theocross was in his room and knew nothing of their arrival for Legolas forgot to tell him for he did not want to bother him with little things. Liena came down off a white horse with a black mane, which was odd for Legolas never saw a horse like that before. He then looked at Liena who had long flowing black hair, which seamed to dance in the wind. She wore a red dress with a black cloak draped around her, which also was not normal for elves did not ware those sorts of colors. Then he looked at Aramis who looked normal compared to his sister for his colors were green and silver. He had blond hair and wore the outfit of a guard in Lothlorien.

"Greetings," Liena said to Legolas, Curtseying.

"Hello milady" he said, taking her hand and kissing it as she came down off the horse.

"So courtly I see,"
"As is all my kin, welcome to Mirkwood and please excuse my father's
absent for he is very busy with something else"

"Tis all right lord," Aramis now said, Taking Legolas' hand in his.

"Follow me and I shall show you where you both will stay." They followed Legolas inside and down the great hall. Liena looked around at all the paintings and different art hanging around the palace They passed the dining hall and the foyer. Then they got to a room on the first floor where Legolas stopped.

"Aramis, this shall be your room. The servants have prepared it for
you."

"Thank you Legolas." He said coming up to the door.

"You may walk about if you wish And see the orchard

"First I wish to see where my sister will be,"
"She shall have the room Next to you, now if you two will excuse me, I
must see My father, as I have some important business to attend to," Legolas said and left them. bowing to the lady as he turned the corner Liena watched him go as all kinds of thoughts ran through her head. Then her brother looked at her worriedly.


"Liena are you all right?" he asked her softly

"Yes I am fine,"

"Are you sure?"

"Quite sure." Aramis looked at her for a moment then spoke and his tone was sharper.
"Liena, I do not think you are alright"
"What do you mean?"
"You have not been yourself lately,"
"What do you mean, I have not been myself!"
"You act strange and dress differently I have noticed it ever since." he trailed off.

"Ever since when?" Liena said, now angry.


"Well since you were hurt in the." Liena cut him off
"I told you never to bring that up again!" she yelled at him,
"Please forgive me,"
"No forgive me for I am just tired,"

"Well I will go to my room now and rest, for I too am very tired from our
journey,"

"Yes, Aramis, you do that I shall be fine," Aramis kissed his sister's cheek and went into his room. Liena stood there for a moment. She came to Mirkwood on a mission and as she thought about it her eyes Slowly turned red and burned like fire. She smiled to herself but it was no normal smile for it was a smile of evil.
