Disclaimer- I own nothing. Hello all, glad you liked the story. Arwen is a
bit OCC in this story, well very OCC. Well here's the shout outs:
DreaminofLorien: Glad you seem to like the story so much! Hope you keep reading!
CherryFaerie: I'm hoping this will be a good story, I try to update often and since I have this story all written out updates should come fairly quickly.
Legolas19: Oh it gets stranger..............lol just keep reading.
Katja: The plot becomes a bit clearer in this chapter though not all the way clearer. It becomes obvious in chapter three. I didn't think my grammar was that bad either till people kept reviewing saying "Commas are your friends!"
I-Love-Legolas: Glad you think its good! Keep reading!
On with the chap!
"Mary," Haldir said in a disapproving tone as he helped her unpack "What were we just talking about before we came here?"
"I'm sorry Haldir" Mary sighed "but the way he told me he was 'happy I was here', a polite but bored tone he had probably used on all three maidens before me. I can't stand it!"
"But Mary you were very rude" Haldir reminded her "You wouldn't want to bring shame to your family"
"Haldir" Mary said quietly "I do not want him to pick me" Haldir gave her a sympathetic look and sat down next to her on her bed.
"Mary you are one of my best friends, I care for you deeply" He said taking her hand in a brotherly way "That is why I am going to give you a warning. Your ice might appall and drive Legolas away for a while but you would be better off fawning over him. I know Legolas, he will be intrigued that you do not go out of your way for him and would enjoy the challenge if he ever found out you actually did not want to marry him" There was a knock on the door and a servant elf entered.
"My lady," He said with a bow "I was told to escort you to the prince's chambers." With a sigh Marial got up and fallowed the elf out of the room.
************************************************************************
"Who does this girl think she is?!" Legolas asked Daniella and Aragorn once they had returned back to his room. "She was so.........rude!"
"Actually, I thought what she said was sort of admirable" Aragorn confessed "Besides, you said you didn't want someone who fawned over you"
"Yes but she had the nerve to suggest that she didn't want to be here!"
"Well what if she doesn't want to be here?" Daniella asked softly "You said it yourself, the five maidens were picked by their families. She could already be in love with someone else, or she could not want to get married at all! She was forced to come here."
"Forced to come here and be a part of your sick contest to pick a bride" The three turned to see Marial entering the room. Now that she was no longer wearing her cloak they could see she was beautiful, as were the three maidens before her. She had shoulder length curly black hair and bright green eyes.
"Marial" Legolas started
"Call me Mary" Marial cut him off.
"Fine" Legolas said "Mary, do you really think this was my idea? I can assure you I don't treat people this way. This was all my fathers' idea; I don't even want to get married!"
"This...............this wasn't your idea?" Mary asked, feeling a little guilty.
"No" Legolas sighed "So lets just try to make this month as friendly as possible so it will go quicker. This is Aragorn and Daniella by the way, my two best friends."
"Hey" Aragorn said as Daniella gave her a warm smile.
************************************************************************
'How touching' Arwen thought. She had just arrived at Mirkwood palace and didn't intend to stay more then a few hours. She had but one purpose here, revenge. Legolas had broken their engagement so suddenly and had embarrassed her name throughout middle earth. She had come here to seek vengeance on him for that, and how perfect, he had his two best friends and a potential bride with him. Well they can come along for the ride. Arwen wracked her brain, which was full of black magic and magical totems, trying to think of the perfect thing to use. Then, she knew.
