Note: Thanks for reviewing. In this chapter there will be revealed more of Joyce her past.

It was a couple of hours ago that the Fellowship had stopped. Sam was making Dinner and the rest was just sitting and talking. Gandalf was smoking his pipe. "Gandalf?" Gandalf said looking up to find Joyce standing in front of him. He smiled. "Yes, Little One." "I was wondering if you could tell me a little more about uh" Joyce said looking to the ground. "Tell you about what." Gandalf asked. "About how my father and your met." She said meeting his eyes. "Ofcouse, come sit next to me." The wizard smiled.

After she sat down. He began to tell the story. "Your father and me go back a very long time. I met him when I was traveling in the Wild. I don´t where exactly. He was very young then. I believe he was about 10 years old. He was looking for something called the Dragonballs. Well anyway. One everning I was camping near the road. I heard something in the woods and I went to check it out. I caught myself a rabbit that day and I was cooking it. When I got back there was this little boy eating my rabbit. What are you doing with my rabbit? I shouted at him. He said he was sorry but that he hadn´t eaten for days and was really hungry. When he found the camping site and didn´t see anyone he decided to take the rabbit. Ofcouse I was a bit mad at him but well what was done was done. So I took some of the bread I had left out of my pack. When I wanted to bite in it. I saw him looking at it with big hungry eyes. I splitt the bread in two and have him half. He wanted to sleep with me. He said it would be safer. We journeyd togheter until he had to leave again. From that moment I saw Goku reguarly. When he asked me to take care of you I said yes without thinking about it. After that I brought you to Rivendell. That is how your father and me met." Gandalf said. "Thank you Gandalf" Joyce said and then hugged him before walking away to get some dinner.

After dinner most of the Fellowship got ready for bed. But not before was decided who would take the first watch. "Are there any volunteers for the first watch?" Gandalf asked the Fellowship. Nobody responded. "I will take the first watch" Joyce said at last. "Good. Now we need one more. It is better for two people to take watch instead of one. Not that I doubt you Joyce." Gandalf said. Legolas stepped forward. "I will take the first watch together with Joyce. Unlesh you mind that is." Legolas asked her. "No, of couse not." Joyce answerd. "Good. Joyce and Legolas will take the first watch for two hours. Then Gimli and Boromir and Aragorn and Frodo after them and at last me and the last 3 hobbits. Is that okay with everybody? Let´s get to bed then." Gandalf said rolling out his bedroll. They others who weren´t on watch followed his example.

Half an hours later everybody exept Legolas and Joyce was asleep. Joyce sat near the fire. "Did you see anything?" She asked Legolas when he returned from scanning the woods. "No nothing. Everything is safe." He answerd.

Legolas sat down next to her. "Can you tell me a bit more about yourself?" He asked looking at her. "Yeah sure. What do you want to know?" She said looking at him. "Tell me about your past?" He asked then. "Well I am not human. Well not all atleast. I am a half saiyan and a half human." She begin. "Yeah. I know. Aragorn told me." Legolas said watching her shocked repley. "Okay. That makes it easier. I never knew my mother and barely my father. He left me with Gandalf when I was two years old. Gandalf brought me to stay with the elves in Rivendell. There I was training in sword fighting when Aragorn was around. He wasn´t there much so then one of the other Elves would teach me. I also learned to shoot a bow. But the sword is my best. Master Elrond teached me in his healing techniques. When I turned 16 I was giving a letter. The letter came from my father and he told me what I was and that I was the proctector of the planet. I went to Gandalf and he showed me how to use my powers. After that I traveld a lot." She finished.

The talking went on for about an hours. Now they were both watching the stars. "Do you like the stars?" Legolas asked her. "Yes very much. They are so beautifull." She said. "I know other things that match their beauty." Legolas said looking at her. "Thank you Legolas." Joyce answerd while blushing deeply. "Tell me Legolas. Is there someone back in Mirkwood who has captured your heart?" Joyce asked. "No. There is someone I like but I need more time to sort out my feelings." He answerd honestly. "I see." Joyce said. She could barely keep the hurt and disappointment out her voice. "And with you?" Legolas asked the same question. "The same. There is someone I like but I don´t think he likes me." She answerd. "Why don´t you ask him?" Legolas said. "Because I need to know my feeling towards him first and it isn´t the time." She answerd. Legolas wanted to say something else but Joyce beat him to it. "I think it is time to wake the others. If you don´t mind I am going to bed. It is going to be a long day tomorrow."Joyce said standing up. "Good night Legolas." She said. Legolas could tell she was hurt but he decided not to press the matter. "Oh Valar. How can I tell her she is the one I like. Maybe when we reach a place where peace will be only if it is for a short while then I will tell her." He swore to himself before jumping in the trees to sleep there.

Joyce allowed her tears to come when she was underneath her blankets. "I knew he liked someone else. Let´s just stick to friendship. I tried not to fall for him but it doesn´t work. Maybe I will tell him when there is a peacefull place and time." She tought to herself before falling asleep.

Hope you liked the chapter. Romance is on the way but when? The only way to find out is to keep reading. Hope you liked the bit about her past. I know it is not much but I could´t think of that much. Please review.
