Arwen and Legolas rode through the woods along a narrow path in silence, trotting along slowly both tired as they had been riding for two days with no stopping for rest, if they had to eat they would not get off there house just grab something out of there packs and ate as they rode. Every now and then Arwen would slowly fall behind and Legolas would turn back and wait for her to catch up but that was also in silence. Legolas was in front again quite a bit and he turned around to find Lady Arwen but she was not in site. So he rode back a little further, he still could not see her she must have gone off the path with out realising he thought to himself.
"Lady Arwen!" He called. "My Lady, where are you?" Legolas heard the rustling of the bushes behind him and he turned this horse around. He got off his horse and spoke to it in his elven language telling it to stay. Legolas grabbed his bow and an arrow and slowly crept toward the bushes off the path. "Arwen are you in there?" Legolas walked a little further on and up ahead he saw Laqwendie Arwen's horse just sitting there but no Arwen. "Laqwendie," Legolas called the horse over to him and it came to him. He then spoke elven to the horse and it walked back to the path to met Legolas' horse. Legolas walked further in to the woods and he could her a muffled noise like a sobbing sound from up in one of the trees, he looked up and there was Arwen sitting on a tree branch crying.
"My Lady, are you alright?" Legolas asked.
Arwen dried her eyes and looked down at Legolas.
"I remember when you were young and you used to always be hiding in a tree when ever lord Elrond had told you off, it was your favourite spot in the tree," Legolas smiled up at her.
"I know. You always knew were to find me Legolas your have been a good friend to me always stood by me and there for me. Even now."
"It is an honour to be a friend to you. Should we rest as it looks night is apon us and we have not rested since we left?"
"Maybe that just what I need is some rest, it was all just getting to me that was all,"
"I'll go get the horse while you get down from up there and then we will set up camp for the night here,"
"Sounds good to me my friend, just first could you help me down."
"Of corse," Legolas laughed, "Just like old times you used to be stuck up a tree for ages because you could get down. Just jump im sure I can catch you." So Legolas put out his arms and Arwen leaped from the tree in to them and Legolas helped her stand.
"I'll go get our horse," Legolas said and walk off towards the path. Arwen started clearing the area moving all the broken branches and fallen leaves away to make a nice clearing for them to rest. Legolas lead the horses through and got their pack off and pulled out two elven handmade blankets and placed them on the ground. He then began to make a fire while Arwen got out some food and water for them. Once the fire was going they both sat there eating and sharing old stories and when they were young and there adventures with the ring and how they miss their friends they made.
"Its been awhile since I've seen hobbits," Legolas said.
"Yes same for me, I did miss the little folk with their pipes and crazy song, maybe that's what we are lacking. Have you not heard how quite or journey has been so far and the woods are awfully quiet no animal noises either."
"It will be a great and successful journey. I'm sure they will talk about it for years later. The great elven quest for their people."
"Hush now Legolas we wont be heroes we are just doing what we have to do."
"Yes we are my lady."
"Enough of that my lady to we have been friends forever."
"But you are the daughter of master Elrond it wouldn't be right me calling you Arwen."
"I demand it, you are more a friend to me than anything and that's what I would like to be called."
"Ok My... Arwen as you wish."
"Ok now that's decided and agreed, when I suggest we get some rest as we will need it I fear our journey is still a long one and I hope to get a lot further before we rest again. Goodnight."
"Good night Arwen and pleasant dreams." With that they both drifted off to sleep in the silence of the woods.
