This is our first LOTR fanfic and also our first torture/angst fic. So r/r and tell us what you think.
It was early morning, just before dawn, when a tall silhouette of an elf moved among the stables, preparing himself for the long ride to Rivendale, to visit his second family. He had packed the night before and was nearly ready to leave. He had one thing left to do, which was to say farewell to his father, King Thranduil.
Legolas moved his mare, MeAmber, out of the stable, where his father was wanting for him.
"Goodbye Ada." The prince said to his father, hugging his father. .
"Have a safe journey Ion-nin."
"I shall Ada. I'll be back in a couple of months." Legolas said, mounting MeAmber and he rode off into Mirkwood forest.
The King watched his son leave and remained there long after Legolas was out of view.
With in four days he had reached the ends of Mirkwood and headed for the Misty Mountains. "Only a few days until we reach the other side, Mellon-nin. He said to MeAmber, who whickered at her master and continued up the trail.
It would be only a couple of hours until he reached the mountains and once he reached the other side it would be only three days to the border of Rivendale and another day until he reached the Last Homely house.
It had been six years since he had been to Rivendale and the young elf could not wait to see his foster family.
Things went smoothly until the fifth day on the mountains. He was almost off the mountains and it was near dark, the mountains already blocked most of the suns rays. When Legolas sensed a group of orcs heading his way. He dismounted and fingered his bow, preparing himself for battle. As the orcs appeared before for him, he let fly his arrows.
He managed to kill twelve before they were to close for him to use his bow. He put it on MeAmber's sattle and drew his Twin knifes. MeAmber ran threw the orcs killing ten. Legolas manage to slay several orcs before a club hit him on the head and he knew no more.
A/N: This is only the first part of chapter one. The rest of it will be posted soon, but until then, r/r!
