Thanks again and again for the reviews. This is my second fic and if you
would like to know my first is in Harry Potter and is entitled I Miss Him.
Now on with the story.
Chapter 4-
Aragorn shook his head to clear it and scrambled down out of the tree. He started toward the castle, part of his mind saying let Legolas go and deal with his own problems. The other part was saying that his brother needed him and he should be there. Lost in his internal conflict, Aragorn went in search of his wife.
He found Arwen sitting in her special place. Aragorn knew from experience that she only came here when something was bothering her or she knew he needed to talk in private. Arwen looked up at him and patted her hand on the ground next to her. Aragorn jogged the rest of the way over and sat down. Before he could give an introduction she said,' I already know, I overheard your conversation with Legolas.'
Aragorn gaped at her, his mouth slightly open. Arwen chuckled and reached her hand to gently close his mouth. Aragorn kissed her hand and slowly made his way up her arm. When he reached Arwen's face they kissed. At first it was softly but it grew more passionate as minutes went by. After several long minutes Aragorn broke apart.
' Thank you Arwen, I know now what I must do.'
With that said he left her side and ran toward the direction Leoglas went. Arwen stared after Aragorn a small smile on her face. In her heart she knew everything would be fine, it would just take a little while.
Legolas ran deeper and deeper into the woods. With every breath he had he never slowed his pace, he only got faster. After several more minutes of running at his fastest Legolas came to an edge of the woods and stumbled to a stop. His breathing came in short, heavy gasps and he fell to his knees. As Legolas tried to catch his breath he looked at his surroundings.
He had never seen this part of the woods before and he found it quite pleasant. There was a small spring nearby and he saw a some deer grazing near it. Legolas inched nearer to the spring and put his hand in it. The water was cold but at the same time refreshing.
A crunch came behind him and he whirled with one of his twin daggers already in his hand. Seeing the person was only Aragorn, he put the dagger away and faced the spring once again.
' I'm sorry mellon nin, I know it was heartless of me to talk about your people but, I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive a foolish brother.'
Legolas was silent for a moment and turned to face Aragorn. ' I forgive you brother,' he said turning back around. Aragorn silently relieved a sigh of relief. For a minute he thought Legolas was going to say something else. He walked over to Legolas and sat next to him. Aragorn acted like he was admiring the view but was actually trying to get a glimpse of Leoglas's face.
Some odd minutes passed and Legolas stood up. Aragorn looked up and lifted an eyebrow. Legolas put out a hand to help the king up and Aragorn accepted. Legolas started walking and Aragorn fell into step beside him.
'You can't fool me Legolas I know something is on your mind.'
'Aye your right, but I'm not sure you'd agree. See before you came along I was thinking of Mirkwood and its attackers and what to do about the problem.'
Aragorn, who hadn't thought about it before, just realized that Legolas did not tell him who the attackers were. Reading his facial expression Legolas said,' I didn't know who or what attacked Mirkwood before but thinking on it now I've known all along and you should to.'
Aragorn continued to look puzzled until he thought about his argument with Kain. Then he thought about his conversation with Legolas and how he said that his people would see him dead. He turned on Legolas and shook his head.
'Never, never would Gondor or its people do this,' Aragorn mumbled.
Legolas smiled and a strange glint appeared in his eyes. He put a hand on Aragorn's shoulder.
'There's something I've not shown you. I found it in Mirkwood and picked it up to examine it.'
Legolas pulled out a small dagger and held it out to Aragorn. Aragorn took it and held it up close. He gasped and looked at Legolas. Legolas asked,' Do you know who's dagger this is?'
Aragorn stared at Legolas and slowly nodded. Only one person in the city of Gondor had a weapon like this and a small army. This person was one of his best guards. The person was Kain.
So how did you like this chapter. I hope this met all of your suggestions. Please review and if you don't me and my small army will get you. = D
