CHAPTER 4
"The Bad Night"
Legolas found Theocross with Nina. He was holding her in is his arms as she cried.
"Shhh, Nina, all will be well," he said to her gently.
"But Merlean is dead, she was my best friend," Nina said sobbing into his arms.
"Please do not think about it," Theocross said but Nina just cried, Inconsolable Legolas then came to her side and tapped her on the shoulder. She looked up and he knelt down on his knees and faced her.
"Sweet Nina, please cheer up. You may take the rest of the
day off and any other time you may need."
"Thank you so much, Lord."
"Please call me Legolas," He said smiling at her. Nina tried to smile and then stood up and left the two elves standing there.
"She shall be fine in time," Theocross said, looking at Legolas.
"Yes I suppose she shall," Legolas said. He then began to feel sick. The events from earlier were starting to get to him now.
"Legolas you do not look too well," Theocross said looking him over.
"Nor do I feel well, I think I shall rest this afternoon. I am sorry
I have to leave you like this though."
"Do not worry, I shall be fine, you go rest for I have plans to
keep myself busy. " Legolas turned around and walked to his room. When he got there he lay down on his soft bed and closed his eyes. A picture of Merlean appeared in his mind and he shuddered. He tried not to think about it but it would not leave his mind. Legolas lay in his bed all afternoon. By dinnertime a servant came to get him tapping gently on the door, grief still obvious in her face.
"Your father wishes to speak to you in the dining hall. And
dinner shall be done soon,"
"Thank you tell him I shall be there." The servant left and Legolas slowly got up. He left his room and made his way to the dining hall. There he saw his father Thranduil passing back and forth in the room.
"Legolas, please sit down," his father said looking at him with an expression of deep sorrow and taking a seat himself. Legolas sat down by his father and turned towards him.
"I heard you were not feeling well,"
"Yes the events from this afternoon shook me up a little but I
shall be fine now,"
"Well that is good news but we still do not know who did this,"
"I do not think we shall find out,"
"Why is that, son?" Legolas thought about what he saw on the wall and if he should tell his father. Thranduil might think he was going crazy but he would take that risk.
"When I saw the blood on the wall there were also words
written there it said Evil is Here. But when I went to show
it to you it was gone," Thranduil did not say anything at first then he spoke.
"Did anyone beside you see it?" Legolas looked down
"No," he confessed sourly.
"Are you sure it was there?"
"I am sure of it father, I am not one to imagine things!"
"I know but with everything going on you could."
"No, I know what I saw," Legolas yelled Thranduil said nothing, then Theocross came in with Aramis. They were deep in conversation. They took their place at the table and waited for the food to arrive. Legolas noticed that Liena was not among them.
"Where is Liena," Legolas asked looking at Aramis
"She shall be here soon," When Legolas had mentioned the name Liena Theocross looked uneasy. But Legolas said nothing, he thought he may be imagining things and if he was imagining that then he may have imagined the wall. Finally when some time passed Liena came in and sat by Legolas. She was warring a dark green dress with black elven script on it, which he could not read. She had her black hair down around her and she wore a necklace with a black jewel in it. She smiled at him but said nothing. Soon the food arrived and they all ate in complete, eerie silence. Liena did not once look at Theocross, so Legolas thought that they knew each other but must not have liked each other. Dinner went by fast and no one spoke a work. Legolas dismissed himself when he was done for he was angry with his father and did not wish to talk to anyone.
The evening passed and soon it was dark. All had retired to their rooms but Legolas could not sleep. He decided to walk around the halls a bit until he got tired. Legolas got up and brought his knives with him for safety. He walked down the dark halls of his palace and thought to himself. Soon he heard breathing from behind him. He stopped and listened to it. Slowly he turned around but could see nothing and the breathing had stopped. Legolas began to walk again and this time he heard footsteps behind him, so he stopped again and the footsteps stopped. Legolas' heart began to race, something was following him. He took off running and so did the footsteps. The breathing started again and Legolas could feel it on his neck. He ran to a room and slammed the door shut and locked it. Something then hit the door and began to shake it. Legolas felt scared. Something was after him and he did not know what. Just then the shaking stopped. Legolas looked at the door and lessened. Silence. He slowly walked to the door. Then he heard a buzzing sound in his ear and it got louder. Legolas fell to the floor covering his ears. When the buzzing stopped he heard a voice and it spoke elvish.
"You shall not escape," the voice said slowly and deliberately.
"Who are you," Legolas replied in elvish
"I shall destroy you, you shall pay and die a horrible death," Legolas did not understand but when the voice spoke he felt cold all over.
"You can not hide for long," Then Legolas felt calm again and he was no longer cold. He opened the door with a knife in one hand. Nothing! There was nothing. Legolas ran back to his room and locked the door behind him.
