Disclaimer: I own nothing but all the peeps you don't know of. ALL IS TOLKIENS!!!! * Pouts at the thought of not owning Legolas* Also I don't own the songs. Michelle Branch, Vanessa Carlton, and 3 Doors Down do. Also the POV is changing between Volindë and Legolas

Chapter one~*

Dear Diary,
This tree is my special place. It's away from the kingdom and villages of Mirkwood. Also it's almost impossible to climb. Not for me though. I'm the second best tree climber in all of Mirkwood. The only Elf that has beaten me is Legolas Greenleaf the Prince. He's the most self- absorbed Elf I have ever met.

This tree is the largest one in the land of Mirkwood. Yet, I'm the only one that notices it. I'm up here most of my spare time. The only time I don't have free time is when I'm working. I must stop writing now. I hear foot steps in the distance. They grow closer rapidly. I'll leave you here for the night. But I'll be back. You hold my word to it.

As I put my Diary and pencil in a hole I hear my name being called. "Volindë! You must come down from there! The sun is setting! Time for you to work!" It is my brother Hasin. I start twisting a strand of my long dark brown hair around my finger. "Hasin can you work tonight. I planed to spend time with Lómiothiel and Colas tonight. Please Hasin. For me?" I asked him. "No Volindë! I did your post last night! You got to work some day out of this year!" Hasin exclaimed, "Now get down here!"

"Andodulin*" I said, "that's what you are. And a waste of a brother. Even if you are younger." I started to climb down. When I got to the last branch, which is far from the ground, I felt Hasin pull at my foot. He pulled again and I fell off the branch, and landed on the forest floor with a thump. "HASIN!!" I yelled, "Auta miqula orqu*!" He laughed when he helped me off the ground. "Amin hiraetha older sister. You wouldn't come down quick enough." He laughed again. "Well, Hasin. If you want to help your older sister... GET HER HORSE!" I told him. "Okay okay!" he said, " I'll get her!"

As he ran back to our house I cleaned my clothes off. Why did he do that! I thought He knows that my clothes are hard to rid of leaves! Five minutes later when he came back I had almost all the leaves out of my hair. "Finally!" I groaned. I took the reins from his hands. "I need a miracle to get there on time." As I leaped on Tinywen's back he looked at me. "I think so too. But you wont get one." He said. I rubbed Tinywen's neck and
whispered in her ear "Asca* Tinywen, ASCA!"

Tinywen took off at a canter, sensing my need of haste. I was almost out of the woods when I ran into him. I almost ran him over. As I looked at who he was I got annoyed. "LEGOLAS WATCH WHERE YOUR GOING!" I yelled at the Prince. "I'm not the one on the horse." He said, "plus your on Palace grounds now, Volindë. You were in my way." I glared at him "Don't try to be a smart ass! I know I'm on Palace grounds!" I said, "I need to get to my stand. I'm trying to get there and this is a short cut. It saves me a half an hour." He looked up at me when I said this. "Well may I escort you through the grounds, Lirimaer?" he asked. I stared at him. "Under 2 condishions." I said. "what are they?" he asked. "okay." I said, "one don't call me lovely one again. Two don't touch me!" I glared at him "It shall be then." He shook my hand as he said this. I got off of Tinywen's back and we walked slowly to the Palace main gate.
