Paige shivered and drew the warm blanket closer around her. Its rough texture gently scrapped her body and her eyes opened in shock and wonder.

'Why am I naked?'

A slight moan came from beside her. The body shifted and an arm flopped over her body. She slowly turned her head to see who was beside her and nearly screamed. Legolas was sleeping beside her and from what she could see, he wasn't wearing very much either.

'We didn't... did we?'

She grabbed a towel from her bed stand and wiggled around under the blanket wrapping the towel around her as best as she could. When that was done, she orbed out of the bed onto the floor. Legolas's arm dropped with a thud and startled him awake. He sat up and rubbed his eyes.

'Truly, I must stop sleeping like a man. It is not as refreshing as the way I usually sleep.'

Legolas glanced down at Paige on the floor and jumped about a foot in the air. He gathered the blankets closer around him.

'What are you doing in my room', he said loudly. 'And why am I... not clothed?'

Paige gulped.

'Um, well...'

Legolas's eyes widened in shock.

'You mean we...'

Paige nodded. Legolas fell back onto the pillows, staring up at the ceiling.

'How did this happen?' he asked voicing his thoughts out loud.

'Well, we were talking on the balcony, then you leaned in and kissed me. I kissed you back and things got a little out of control.'

Legolas stared at her.

'A little?'

'OK, a lot.'

She got up and wrapped the towel around her more tightly. She walked over to her clothes and glanced around. There was no bathroom to change into and she was not going to wander around the place looking for a bathroom in a towel. She turned to Legolas who was trying to grab his pants off a chair.

'Can you look away while I get dressed?'

Legolas fell out of the bed, covers and all onto the floor. He grabbed his pants.

'You didn't seem to mind much what I saw, or felt, last night', he said pointedly.

'That was last night, this is this morning. Now look away or I'll make your happy place not feel so happy anymore.'

'Truly, I think you're as bad as Arwen when it comes to mood swings.

Paige threw out her right hand.

'Pants.'

Legolas's pants orbed out of his hands and she had them reappear on the plants that hung down from the ceiling just out of reach.

'Hey! I need my pants!'

'Take it back.'

Legolas wrapped the blankets around himself tighter and jumped. His fingers just grazed the pants. He tried again and missed completely. He glared at Paige.

'Do I have as bad a temper as Arwen?'

'No, but you do have a really twisted sense of humor.'

'I'll take that as a compliment. Pants!'

She orbed the pants down and dropped them on his head. He grabbed them and the rest of his accessories and turned away. Quickly they both got dressed and after making sure everything was covered, they left the bedroom. Phoebe was waiting outside for them. When she saw them together, she first looked at Paige with a confused look on her face. She then looked at Legolas and a look of horror crossed her face.

'You mean you guys... No, Paige not good!'

'Phoebe, kill the motor will you? We know that it wasn't the smartest thing to do but it's done now and we best put it behind us.'

Phoebe raised her eyebrow.

'Yes I know Piper's going to kill me. Where is she anyway?'

'I was hoping you knew', said Phoebe. 'I've been looking for her everywhere and I thought she was maybe talking to you so I waited outside here.'

'Maybe Aragorn knows', Legolas suggested.

They found him in the Dining Hall eating breakfast and it turned out he hadn't seen her since last night.

'We were going to talk', he said as he munched whatever it was he was eating, 'but then Arwen said she wanted to talk to her instead, so I went to bed.'

'We'll keep looking', Paige sighed Thanks.'

The three of them trooped out of the hall and Aragorn continued to eat his breakfast. When he was done, he went to his bedroom where he found Arwen brushing her hair. She glanced at him when he came in.

'Hello', she said pleasantly. 'Finished breakfast?'

'Just. Um, have you seen Piper lately?'

'Not since last night.'

Aragorn's shoulders fell, and Arwen obviously saw the sudden movement because she began to yell at Aragorn.

'Piper! It's all about Piper ever since she came along. Piper this and Piper that!'

'Arwen, I haven't...'

'Shut up! I can tell you love her. So why did you marry me? Why did you say you love me? Why did you decide to have a child with me? It's obviously a good reason I exiled her to Isengard!'

The colour drained from Aragorn's face. The room swam before his eyes.

'Isengard? Arwen, no...'

Aragorn turned around and ran from the room He sprinted to the Retirement Room, which is where Phoebe had scryed for the fellowship, and found Paige, Phoebe and the rest of the fellowship bending over the map of Middle Earth. Paige swung Arwen's necklace over the map.

'Piper is on the way to Isengard!' he blurted.

Just then the necklace landed by the river Isen, about halfway to Isengard.

'What the hell is she doing there?' said Phoebe. 'She's not going to try to sweet talk Saruman in not attacking you is she?'

'That doesn't sound like Piper', said Paige.

'Arwen exiled her to Isengard because she thinks Piper and I are going to run off on our own and leave here alone with Gondor and the little one.'

Paige swore loudly.

'Gandalf', Aragorn ordered. 'Ride to Edoras and ally Gondor with Rohan. We need to save Piper, and the only way we can do that is by going to war with Saruman.'

'He will sense Piper's magic like I did when we first met the sisters', said Gandalf gravely. 'He will not take kindly to the fact Piper is stronger than him in magic and will most likely kill her.'

'I will lead a search party and possibly catch up to her before they reach Isengard. If not, I will meet you by Fangorn Forest and attack from there. Paige will orb in and grab Piper before Saruman can kill her. Phoebe, you will have to stay here and keep everything in order. With Arwen in her state, I don't know what she may do, especially after this. Legolas, Gimli, go with Gandalf to Edoras to rally the King. Everyone else will come with Paige and I.'

Aragorn woke up and groaned. They had been traveling for two days and there had been no sign of Piper. He knew Piper had most likely made it to Isengard by now, but Paige hadn't sensed her sisters death so he knew she was OK. Aragorn wandered over to a near by stream to wash his face. The cold water woke him up and sharpened his mind. He turned around to walk back to camp, but when he came to the clearing they had slept in, it was clear. No one was there. He stepped further into the clearing to look around, when someone came from behind him and smacked his head with a rock. He fell in a dead faint.
