Legolas walked back into the throne room. He looked up when he saw Gandalf standing there, the wizard turned around when the Elf entered and said. "Welcome, Legolas. Come and sit, we have much to discuss."
Legolas nodded and sat down next to Aragorn. Gandalf continued. "What we have to discuss is what we are going to do against Sauron but first there is something that is far more important. We have to discuss Nienna. Some of you might know that she has an evil side, now she thinks she is evil, which is when she is not angry she has a good change of banning the evil out of her heart. Right now, there is not much that is keeping her connected to the good in the world. The truth is that only one thing is connecting her right now and that is us. Actually only one person." Gandalf turned to Legolas before he said. "That is you, Legolas. I will be fair with you. I think you know about the bond between you and Nienna, well that is the only thing that can save her and pretty much the rest of this Middle Earth."
Legolas swallowed hard before he said. "So she can be turned evil when I would be mad at her."
Gandalf nodded and answered. "Yes, that would be pretty much it. She is despairing and does not have much hope for herself. She needs you now more then ever. I know you would rather see her safe in Rivendell but no matter what she would need to be saved. Why do you ask?"
Legolas bowed his head before he answered. "I was mad at her for not being in Rivendell and for not obeying me. I said to her that I needed to think and closed myself off from her. I cannot sense her any longer. I fear I have made the biggest mistake of my life and broke her heart and probably sealed the faith of the Earth."
Gandalf shook his head before he said. "What are you getting from her?"
Legolas focused hard and after a little while he answered while his face was as pale as the wall of the city. "She is heartbroken. There is so much grief and pain and anger, I cannot begin to see an end to it. Her soul feels black and chilled as ice. I cannot reach her. She has closed off; the bond between us is growing weaker by the minute."
Gandalf signed and closed his eyes before he said. 'That is it then. Aragorn, when do you want to leave for Mordor?"
"In a week, Gandalf, maybe two that is all we have." Aragorn answered, casting a concerned glance towards Legolas.
"Alright, we do not know for certain if Nienna is evil. There is a good change that it is only temporary but be on your guard, all of you. Legolas try to safe things between you what you can, if you are willing." Gandalf answered.
Legolas looked up and said. 'Yes, Gandalf, I love her."
"Show that to her."
Nienna had pulled back into her room. She felt heartbroken and torn. Her mind was venerable and she soon she felt a presence in her mind. The presence of Sauron.
"I told you that you would be mine."
"I will never be your. Now please, leave me alone."
"Nobody wants you, Elf. Not even the Elf prince. You can make them pay. I will kill them and I will do it by you. You know what to do, you are mine." Sauron said and Nienna felt the black energy return to her, more heavily then anything she had ever experienced.
When she looked up, her eyes were as black as the night.
Days had gone by and Nienna had heard from the plan from Sauron how to kill the fellowship. She had to start with Legolas. All the goodness was out of her heart yet little did she know that between all those dark thoughts a little spark remained only needed to be lit and light her whole soul.
She did not want to be with Legolas for she was scared that he would find out about her. She was still heartbroken and this evening she would kill them all. She heard from Eowyn that they would in the garden tonight.
The day passed swiftly and passed into the night. Nienna had a sword with her before she made for the garden. She soon heard voices, voices that belonged to Gandalf, Aragorn, Gimli and Legolas.
Nienna was clad in black. Her eyes were black and not their usually stormy grey. She counted to ten and then stepped into the garden. Gandalf's head snapped to the right when he felt the power coming from Nienna. It was evil but before he had a change to say something, Gimli had called to her. 'Hello, there lassie, what are you doing?"
"Nothing, Gimli, nothing." Nienna answered while a smirk played on her lips. She hesitated when she saw them standing there, she could not do it, everything they had shared, and she could not kill them.
Sauron forced more power and evil into her mind, causing Nienna to fall to her knees. Everybody heard the voice coming from him. "Kill them, Nienna, kill them all, and do as I say. You will obey me, start with the Elf prince."
Legolas's jaw was set, he remembered Gandalf's words and he stepped forward. Nienna stood up and lifted up her sword before she said. "I am sorry. He is so strong; I cannot fight him any longer. Kill me and safe the world." Before the spark vanished out of her eyes and she rushed for Legolas.
The Elf met her with his own knife and they danced around each other for a minute while Legolas desperately tried to reach Nienna. When he did not succeed he dropped his knives and while ducking underneath her sword, he grabbed hold of her before he said. "If he wants me dead, he should do it himself. Nienna, I love you, I swear it by everything and if I brought this one then I will also end it." With those words, his fist collided with her temple and he knocked her out.
Nienna woke to a severe headache and found herself tied to a bed. When she looked around, she noticed that Legolas was sitting with her. The Elf looked at her and a shy smile was on his lips before he said. "I know you are evil and I also know that I am the only one that can bring you back. I will also tell you how, by binding myself to you. I know you will return the bond, Nienna, I know you do."
Nienna did not answer, she just wishing it would end. She closed her eyes and the tears fell from her eyes. Now that the presence of Sauron was gone, she felt empty and spent. She opened her eyes when she felt Legolas's lips on her own. The Elf's tongue begged for her to return the passion and she opened her mouth willingly.
Legolas smiled and while undoing her gown, he nearly pushed her to the edge with his kisses and skilled fingers. He cut her lose and then made love so tender to her, it brought tears to her eyes. Nienna felt her soul being lifted to new heights and felt all the warm return to her.
Before Legolas reached his peak, he whispered. 'I bind myself to thee, Nienna, daughter of Elrohir, Lady of the light."
Finding her voice, she answered. "I bind myself to thee, Legolas son of Thranduil, Prince of the Woodland Realm."
After that, Legolas lay down close to Nienna and kissed her temple before he said. 'I will not be mad at you again. The Valar have chosen for us to bind and I will not let anything come between us. You are mine and mine alone. As long as I am good, so are you."
Nienna nodded and finally fell asleep, having made her choice, she had chosen the light.
Hope you liked it. Please review.
