Chapter six:
"Oh, Legolas, I don't know what to do at all! That man was so horribly cruel to me!" said Kerriwen.
"What did he say to you, sweetheart?" asked Legolas.
"He wanted....me to marry him!!! I said no, I was already engaged to you!" said Kerriewn!
"That jerk! He knows that I am in love with you too! How dare he try to come between us! There's something fishy going on here. I'm going to talk to Gandalf about this situation, Kerriwen. He'll come up with a plan to help us out."
"Do you really think that he would? Uncle Grey is awfully busy." said Kerriwen.
"Uncle Grey? Do you mean Gandalf?" said legolas.
Kerriwen giggled. "Yes, silly. We met a few weeks ago and we got along so well, he told me I was like the granddaughter he never knew. So he asked me to call him Grandpa Grey. And I think he wants to help teach me in my magic lessons too. I can already sing a light into a crystal to light up a room." Kerriwn said.
"You can? I can't believe you are calling Gandalf Grandpa Grey! That's to funny to hear!" said Legolas.
The couple stood up and exited the ballroom to look for Gandalf. He was in the library reading books about spells and magic.
"Oh, it's my granddaughter Kerri! Come on in you two!" said Gandalf.
"Grandpa Grey, I missed you!" Kerriwen ran in the room and hugged the wizard.
"Nice to see you Gandalf, said Legolas.
"What brings you here? Isn't there a ball going on? Or did it end early?"siad Gandalf.
"No, but there was some trouble, and I wanted to ask you about it." said Legolas. He explained the situation to Gandalf about how Boromir had acted. Gandalf loked VERY angry when Legolas told him about how mean Boromir had been to Kerriwen.
"I don't believe that man! And he hurt Kerriwen and tried to scare her to! Kerriwen, I will be teaching you more magic soon so that you can protect yourself against evil like this. I will teach you a spell to move objects with your mind so that you can push Boromir away if he should ever attack you again!" said Gandalf.
"I'm glad that you are teaching her magic, Gandalf." said Legolas. "But what about why Boromir is doing this? Why is he after Kerriwen?"
"Hmmm, I don't know. I will have to talk to Lady Gladriel about this. She can read minds, so maybe she can look into Boromir's mind to find out what is going on!!"
"Oh, yes, Auntie Glad was teaching me how to read minds just the other day. She was supprised at how easily it came to me." said Kerriwen with a giggle.
"Auntie Glad? That's what you are calling Galadrial? You must have made an impression on her! It's probably because she has no children of her own. You must be a treasure to her, Kerriwen." said Gandalf. "And you are a treasure to me too."
"Oh, Grandpa Grey!" said Kerriwen. "I love you too!"
"Well, said Legolas, now that we have a plan, we just have to get Boromire into a room where Galadreil can read his mind."
"But I can do it, Auntie Glad taught me how" said Kerriwen.
"But you jsut started and it could be dangerous for you" said Legolas.
"I can do it, im sure of it! Why are you doing this?? Siad Kerriwen.
"Becasue I love you and I don't want you to get hurt!! Yelled Legolas!
"Well, then you need to stop acting like such a jerk yelled Kerriwen back! And she ran out of the room. When Legolas tried to stop her, she pushed out at him wither her mind and pushed him back.
"Wow, said Gandalf, and I hadn't even taught her that- she has amazing power! Legolas, go after her, she could be in danger all alone with Boromire lurking around the castle!"
OK said Legolas, I'll go get her!
Boromir was walking in the garden when he saw Kerriwen rush out. "Now's my chance he thought! He hid behind a bush and waited for Kerriwen to walk by. Then he knocked her out and carried her away to his castle.
What will happen next?? Will Legolas find Kerriwen in time???
