Legolas/Green Gimli/blue Eomer/red Elrond/purple
The chapters will get longer.I have just never been good at knowing where to stop them.There will be lots of chapters if they are tiny though... ______________________________________________________________________
An hour later found Legolas,Gimli,Red,and Green squeezing through the few small gaps between the tight tree trunks of the thick forest.Red looked calm though her sister kept shooting anxious looks over her shoulder at their prisoners while her hand held tight to her knife hilt.Green had never been a trusting person and the prospect of spending time with an elf and a dwarf long enough to do more than slit their throats was almost painful.
"How much further have we to go?"Grumbled Gimli trying and failing to squeeze through a gap in the branches which Legolas had disappeared through only seconds earlier.
"We shoulds reached the cave by mornin' if we doent stop."Said Red in response taking Gimli by the shoulder and steering him through a wider space with unexpected gentleness.
"Keep-"Gimlii began gruffly but one look at Legolas was enough to tell him that he should not complain so instead he said,"Where are we going?"
"Home!"Barked Green gloomily."OUR'S!No right!Come not!Come not!"
Red laid a slender hand on Green's shoulder as if to calm her.It seemed effective for Green took a deep breath and spoke no more.It was then that Legolas realized the resemblance between Red and Green.It was amazingly stronge even in the almost pitch black darkness.They must have be sisters,he thought but said no word.If they wanted him to know anything they would tell him.He would ask no questions at the time.Prying did not seem wise to him when the one you are prying at suspects that you are a spy or enemy of some kind.
The hours roled by and still the company walked. Legolas, Red, and Green were showing no signs of weariness unlike Gimli who often grumbled complaints under his breath.He would have kept himself occupied by speaking with Legolas but he was not sure wether the two women would count that as rude.He did not mind hurting their feelings but his neck and the neck of his elf friend were at stake as well.There was no sign that night had come but it had.After a while it could be noticed that the deep,thick dark had become a shade darker.
After a while Red fell back from her sister to talk with Legolas.Gimli struggled along behind them.
"Yours name's?"She asked semi-sourly.
Legolas Greenleaf of Mirkwood."Replied Legolas."And yours?"
Red did not awnser right away as though this awnser was taking her quite some thought.
"Red of trees."
Legolas would have laughed at her attempt to sound proper if he had even felt in the slightest that she had awnsered in such manor for that purpose.He was quite sure that they were from Fangorn with how well they knew it but also that she was genuinely unaware that the wood was called Fangorn.He kept silent for lack of any idea what to say.Red did not seem to notice but instead went on as though she had expected his loss of words before she had said anything.
"Gimli?Gloin soned?"She said.
"Yes,"Said Legolas."That is right,and Legolas,son of-"
"Thranduil."Red finished for him."I does know kings ands princed on face."
Legolas did not even bother trying to work out what she meant this time.Instead he continued as though he understood.
"Yes."He said."Thranduil.Have you ever been to Mirkwood?It is near-"
"I know.Yes.Beatifus place."
Gimli put on a burst on speed and caught up with them huffing and puffing and holding the stitch of his round stomach.
"Rather you speak with her than me?" He asked grumpily." I shall remember this, elf."
The sun had come out little to their notice when Red signaled for them to stop. They were come to the edge of a caves mouth. It was very dark inside but Legolas knew that I must be very large and run very deep.
"OUR home."Said Green shrewdly, stepping inside of it and disappearing iinto the darkness.
Red pushed the pair on their shoulder's to get them inside and followed them inside.
A torch could now be seen burning ahead.
