More important Authors note at end of chapter
(I highly suggest going back and rereading some of this if you haven't read this story recently…I wrote the durn thing and even I couldn't remember half the plot -_-)
*Rivendell, Early morning, takes place one day after last chapter*
Kagome got down on her knees and gave Shippo one last hug before they left. Shippo sniffed with tears in his eyes "but Kagome," he sobbed "why can't I go with you!"
Kagome stroked Shippo's head. "Shippo I already told you, it's far too dangerous for you to come with us. Besides, look on the bright side! You get to stay here with uncle Elrond! Now your gonna have to let me go so that we can defeat the dark forces and come back sooner."
Shippo reluctantly nodded and released Kagome. Once free, Kagome stood up and went to stand next to Legolas, who was holding the reins to the pony on which the hobbits were riding.
"Ready to go?" Legolas asked her. Kagome gave him a small smile, "as ready as I'll ever be." She replied.
(Sorry Shippo lovers, but he was just getting in my way -_-…at least I didn't kill him)
***Nightfall the same day, Lothlorien woods***
Kagome put another log in the fire before sitting back down in the circle that fellowship had formed around the fire, it being their only source of warmth.
"So it's decided," said Aragorn, "we'll split up on separate missions, and meet back together in Gondor." Everyone nodded.
"How many groups are we splitting into?" asked Kagome. Aragorn furrowed his brow, "I figure that we'll split into five groups" he replied, much to the surprise of the group.
"Sam and Frodo will have to continue to Mordor on their own, their small and wont attract much attention-" Aragorn was cut off Sango "why don't I send Kirara with them, she can stay in her smaller form unless they need her."
Aragorn shook his head, "while I would feel more comfortable with them having her, Kirara's demon energy would draw to much attention to them. Though if it's ok with you I think it would be beneficial to send her with Pippin and Merry to find the last of the Tree Imps." Aragorn replied.
"Ok," said Kagome, "so who are the last three groups?" "Well their two more groups, and then Inuyasha will go off on his own to keep an eye on the dark forces, and report to us if there's any sudden activity." Explained Aragorn.
"The last two groups are You, Legolas, and Gimli traveling to Mirkwood and Rohan, to try to secure those forces. And me, Sango, and Miroku traveling to Gondor, to form the army of man." Everyone nodded as Aragorn finished.
***About two hours later***
Kagome watched as the last flames of the fire finally died out. Shivering she got up and walked over to where Legolas was sitting against a tree.
(I feel guilty that the main subject is romance, yet there isn't very much. *ashamed look*)
Legolas pulled himself out of his thoughts to look at her as she sat down, and smiled.
"Cant sleep?" he asked. Kagome shook her head, "I've always had problems sleeping when it's cold, so I figured I'd come over here and ask you about Mirkwood." She replied.
Legolas frowned and looked turned his gaze back to the ground, "Mirkwood is my home, though I haven't been there in 20 years due to a fight with my father…the king."
Kagome gave him a concerned look, "are you going to be ok with going back and asking your father for troops?" she asked. Legolas looked at her again, "what choice do I have? If we don't win this last battle, then Middle Earth and everything I love are doomed."
Kagome rested her head on Legolas's shoulder, "don't worry," she whispered, "to many people care about middle earth to see it destroyed."
Legolas smiled at the ground for a couple of minutes before turning back to Kagome, only to find that she had finally fallen asleep.
"Sleep well Kagome" he whispered as he wrapped an arm around her shoulders to keep her warm during the night.
Resting his head against the tree behind him he closed his eyes and let himself join Kagome in the land of the sleeping.
(HA!!! I ACTUALLY DO WRITE ROMANCE!!! TAKE THAT WORLD!!!)
Kagome was greeted the next morning by someone shouting at her, "WHAT IN THE HELL ARE U DOING, YOUR SUPPOSED TO BE IN LOVE WITH ME!!! GET OUT OF THE BASTARDS ARMS!!!!" Inuyasha yelled at her.
Opening her eyes she found that during the night she had gone from using Legolas's shoulder as a pillow, to sitting in his lap with his arms wrapped around her. Not to mention she was now using his chest as a pillow opposed to his shoulder.
Kagome started blushing, before she remembered the reason that she wasn't still asleep on Legolas's chest. "Inuyasha," she snarled.
Inuyasha seeing the looking on her face gulped, "oh shit" he muttered. "SIT!!!!"
Grumbling she turned back to look at Legolas. She started to apologize but stopped and gasped when she looked at Legolas's face. "What's wrong?" asked a worried Legolas………….
To be continued…..
JUST KIDDING!!!! *cackles* Smiled at everyone but stops when she sees all the murderous looks. AH!!!!!! *runs screaming from an angry mob*
Kagome didn't answer him. Lifting her hand she traced his forehead, the mark on his forehead. "Your mark of elven royalty appeared…which means that you're now the king." she said in shock. Legolas's eyes widened, "father" he whispered.
Ok….I know that was almost just as bad…BUT THERES GOOD NEWS!!! I'VE ALREADY STARTED THE NEXT CHAPTER!!! WHICH MEANS THAT THEIR WONT BE A GOD AFOUL WAIT FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER!!! IT SHOULD BE OUT BEFORE THE WEEK IS!!!! ^-^
In other news, I would like to explain what I've just done with the story. Now the reason that I took so long to update this story was plain and simple writers block…very bad writers block…well that and I'm a slacker -_- Anyways! My writers block was caused my watching the 3rd LOTR movie…it blew me away. Or should I say that so much happened in it that I suddenly had no idea as to what in the hell I was going to do with this fic. BUT I NOW HAVE THE ANSWER! And you saw it happen in this chapter. The answer is that I sent Sam and Frodo on the merry little way, and they'll go about saving the ring behind the scenes. That way I don't have to write about it, but it still happens! O_o now what I need is everyone's opinion on this….if you think that would just be stupid please let me know. I need feedback people!!!!
Tell next time!
