I warn you this is a strange chapter but is entirely necessary if you want this story to go anywhere.

Aragorn looked around. He had been living underground with Drowlin for over a week now and he had yet to have a chance to speak with Legolas. Rounding a corner he heard the sounds of someone in pain he saw Legolas on the floor clutching his head. The elf was breathing hard and struggled to rise.

Seeing Aragorn Legolas shouted out, "Aragorn hurry the potion it is weakening." Aragorn reached out to his love but Legolas disappeared before his eyes. The hall way was filled with images of Legolas kissing Kennet with a passion that Aragorn had never seen before. Drowlin's laugh echoed in his mind.

Aragorn sat bolt up right on the bed and yelled in surprise. The nightmares were becoming more frequent. He dreamt that he and Legolas had a chance only to have it cruelly taken away from them.

Climbing from the bed the man knew that he would receive no more rest that night.

Legolas felt weak. He was trapped inside his own mind. He could hear, fell and see everything that his body did but he had no control over his actions or reactions. Looking at Aragorn's face every time he came close hurt. Especially to then have some strange man run his large, dirty hands over his body.

The Elf could feel his children inside him grow restless. He had no idea if the children would survive if born to early. They were restless and did not like the new host of their mother. Legolas had to break free of the hold the spirit had over his body.

He was do tired. He just wanted to rest.

The Hobbits, Gimli and Gandalf were worried. Their friends had disappeared without a trace nine days ago and they had received no word from them whether they were alive or not. Gandalf had tried to sense the elf in the dream world but had only been able to tell that there was something very wrong. They had tried everything. They were running out of ideas.

Aragorn's POV.

I remember the day we were married the fuss and bother was despised by Legolas but he went through with it for Love. The love we shared was so strong and bright. But now it has been stripped from us and thrown aside. And my children what will happen to them. Will Kennet raise them and let them believe that he is the Father. Will I ever truly see Legolas again not just this shell?

Legolas POV

I can not believe that this is what we have been reduced to. I love him and I have to be with him. But its so hard. I am only free to move in my dreams and then I have not the strength to go to him. Will he forget me and take another lover. Our children left to be raised by another. If he leaves me then they will have no parents for I would soon pass to Mandos without him.

Gandalf POV

Where are they. The people of both Gondor and Eryn Lasquelan are waiting for news of the royals. They have an unbreakable love. If one was hurt or worse killed then all hope for middle Earth would die with them. Inside of Legolas were the two people who would truly bond the world of Elves and men forever. The only chance for us all is gone unless we find them.

Gimli POV

Stupid Elf going and getting himself and the Man lost. Just like them always going off somewhere not telling any one. I am sure that they are fine, at least I hope they are.

Normal

Drowlin watched the King of Gondor in his grief. The only way for him to get Legolas back would cause the pregnant Elf great pain if he tried. The potion was designed to repress Legolas' true memories and provide him with false ones which over time would make Legolas sink into his own brain only able to watch what was happening and not influence it. It was the perfect revenge.

Aragorn was walking aimlessly around. He had his eyes cast down on the floor. He tried to think of a plan but nothing cam to mind. He felt himself knock some one over. He really should be looking where he was going. "Sorry."

Then a sweet voice answered "It is fine. These clothes were dirty anyway." He looked at the form he had knocked down and saw Legolas starring at him. Clothes scattered all around. Legolas struggled to get up. His swollen stomach stopping him from rising gracefully. Aragorn helped him.

They stood their faces barely an inch apart. Aragorn could feel the breath of the Elf on his lips and could smell the scent that screamed Legolas in his mind. Carefully Aragorn leant forward and claimed the rosy lips underneath his. The two kissed with a passion unmatched by any.

"Aragorn." The Elf questioned. So saying Legolas screamed. Clutching his head Legolas fell to the floor. Aragorn leant down and tried to find out what was wrong.

Drowlin appeared behind the man. "If he continues to live as Legolas he will receive pain like this. It is his brain rebelling against having two memories in his head. No being is designed for this."

"It is your choice Aragorn. Do you keep your Husband or do you let Legolas go to save him pain."

Aragorn did not know what to do.

Okay. I am not exactly sure but is eight months too early o have the children born. I am getting ready to end this story and have the last chapter already written.
