Again the books and characters don't belong to me and I appologise for the late post
How they had survived Legolas didn't know, Legolas remembered his eyes face and hands being burned black, he opened his eyes and tried to move, but the mud around him was packed tight, the pain he had felt when he was burning had faded to a slight tingle. Legolas felt that Belegfennas was still asleep so started to dig for the surface.
When he reached the surface he took several deep breaths and stretched, he looked at his hands which had turned black the previous morning were now a dark bronze like that of a ranger. "Well it looks like I can learn fast myself so why do I need that other? I don't need to know his stories, his secrets!. But then again I would have died, but then again will he leave me alone now I've been made his companion?" he looked at the sky which was still red with the setting sun
Legolas then heard shouting in the distance and turned with such speed he nearly fell "looks like I need to get used to this new speed" he saw torches in the distance and heard the light step only elves possess, Legolas cursed under his breath, Belegfennas appeared at his side "looks like Elrond has sent out a search party for you, they travel fast those elves don't they?"
"if you tell me your stories, all I need to know to survive, will you let me go?" said Legolas without turning to look at him "like I said Legolas, I'm lonely, I made you for company" Legolas now turned to face him "but I cannot stand to look at you, how can you think that I could love you?"
"The elves are getting close, we must move on" the vampire said changing the subject, "we must move on to somewhere where we will be left alone" as much as I hate the place, I feel we have no choice, moria has been empty since the downfall of Sauron we can hide there" "then show me the way" said Belegfennas
