Christine stood there numb with shock. The glowing portal was now gone, and
so were Legolas and Arwen.
She immediately regretted being so cruel to the both of them. She shouldn't have ordered Legolas out of her life and out of her daughter's. Tears flooded down her face.
"What am I going to do?" Christine asked nobody in particular. What if she never got either of them back? Christine knew she would never be able to forgive herself if that happened.
Legolas woke up with a start. He was lying in the spot in which he had been originally transported from in the first place. What he didn't expect was to see his daughter sitting up next to him.
"What? How?" he asked.
"I ran in after you. I can't lose you, dad." She said and hugged him.
He hugged her back then looked her in the eyes. "I admire your loyalty to me, but despite that, your mother is going to miss you terribly."
Arwen frowned. "You don't want me here?"
"I did not mean it that way. I love nothing more than to spend time with you."
"Then let me stay!"
Legolas sighed. "Your mother may have been cruel, but she does not deserve to lose her only child."
Arwen contemplated his words for a moment. "Well, if I go back, so do you."
"I can only return if your mother will let me in her heart again."
"I know she will! She has to!" Arwen said, snuggling closer to Legolas.
"I hope so." He said, stoking her golden hair.
Just then, Dana entered the room. "Legolas, what are you doing back in this world?"
"Hello, Dana." He said, and then explained what had happened.
"Oh, that's awful! And this young miss is your daughter." Dana said seeing Arwen.
"Yes." Legolas said, acknowledging that she was right.
"Welcome to Mirkwood, Arwen. I am Dana, the Royal seer."
Dana reached down and shook the girl's hand.
"There is nothing to fear. As your father forgets I see, he can return to either world when he chooses.all he needs to do is simply ask his heart where he wants to go and he shall be there."
Arwen smiled. "Then that means we can head right back home again and hopefully be able to make mom forgive us."
Legolas nodded, and then took his daughter's hands in his. Together they wished themselves back home.
Just as swiftly as they had left, they appeared once again. Christine was still standing in the same spot as though she had been frozen there.
"Y-you're back!" She said, tears stinging her eyes. Christine ran to her daughter and hugged her tightly. "I was so worried I wouldn't see you again."
"But we came back." Arwen said, gazing up at her mother. "Please forgive us for what we did. We never meant to hurt you."
Christine wiped fresh tears from her eyes. "I know.I shouldn't have been so cruel to you both. I know I had a right to be angry, but not like that."
"It's okay, mom." Arwen said and snuggled into her arms.
Christine looked up at Legolas. "I never wanted you gone from my life.That was my anger talking. I love you so much.can you forgive me?"
"I can forgive you as long as you forgive me."
"I do."
Legolas smiled and kissed her softly. "Thank you."
And with that, all was finally right with the world.
