Oh look I finally decided to update. Er...there is a good reason as to why it's taken me so long to update. Um.. out of all the story's I have written this is the first one I've ever even come close to finishing and I had a major brain collapse, I mean I tried to write this chapter but nothing, until now. There's only around three chapters left of this story. –start's to dance with joy-. Um.. sorry well to the story.

Chapter 17

Legolas pulled out thorns and burs from his horse's mane. They had come to a stop so they could eat lunch and groom their horses. Legolas pulled his hand through his horse's mane one last time, making sure there were no more tangles in it. Legolas looked around him absorbing in his surroundings quickly.

"There's a stream not to far from here." Lornel said calmly grooming his own horse. Legolas nodded taking their canteens in his hands. "I'll go fill up our canteens." He said.

Lornel distractedly gave a nod of approval. Legolas walked away then his footsteps stopped, not to far away. (A/N: Lornel can hear somewhat better then elves, he is....well I can't tell you who he is yet.) Lornel looked up sharply, having a bad feeling. What met Lornel's sight nearly made him topple over in laughter.

Legolas hung by his ankles in mid-air a tree branch wrapped around his ankles. "I suppose I haven't warned you about Tricktrees yet have I?" Lornel asked peering up at the elf. "Ah no...not exactly." Legolas said.

"Trick trees are trees that like to trick you into coming close enough so they can grab you and dangle you in the air by your ankles. They don't really do It for a reason, they just do it for amusement." Lornel informed him. "I suppose I have to get you down now don't I?" Lornel said.

"That would be nice." Legolas muttered through clenched teeth. Lornel placed his hand on the tree pushing magic into it. The tree immediately let go of Legolas.

Legolas landed on the ground with a loud clunk. Lornel helped Legolas up trying not to laugh. "Thanks." Legolas said, brushing the dirt off of his clothes.

"If you hurry, we'll eat lunch quickly and be on our way again. By tomorrow afternoon we'll be in middle earth." Lornel said handing the two water canteens back to Legolas. Legolas's eyes brightened then they dimmed.

"Then it'll take us around a month just to get to Gondor." Legolas said. Lornel looked at him slightly surprised. "This path leads straight to Gondor." Lornel said.

Legolas gave a sharp nod of his head then disappeared in the thick woods, closest to the stream. Kloron scurried down from his hiding place to rest upon Lornel's shoulder. "Well that was er...entertaining." Kloron said.

Lornel sighed. "You again? I thought I told you to go away." Lornel stated bitterly. "No wonder you don't have any friends, look at the way you treat them." Kloron muttered.

"I do to have friends. Your just annoying." Lornel retorted. "Now shoo go away." Lornel ordered.

"Oh let me stay at least for lunch." Kloron begged. "Fine. Just don't bring attention to yourself, I don't want Legolas to suspect anything." Lornel ordered.

"I won't I promise, squirrel's honor." Kloron said Lornel sat down by their fire watching the food cook. Soon Legolas came back and they quickly ate, continuing on there journey closely followed by Kloron.

Well that was an interestingly pointless chapter. I don't know about you guys but I like Lornel more then Kloron, who do you guys like??

Well on to the reviews:

Frisha: Um... Lornel and Kloron??? For me to know and for me to decide wither or not you find out ^_^ Maybe if I'm nice I'll share that information. He He hope you liked this chapter, though it was completely poimtless.

Selena: I'll be looking into that story. I'm glad you like this story. And no one understands me either. Sorry just had to fill like I belonged for a moment. Lol

Niennaofmirkwood: Sorry for taking so long to update. Your not going to let me off that easily are you? Hmm...it's a good thing I chose a squirrel instead of a cute fluffy bunny then.

Dur En Thurin Naur: Wow er....Squirrels seem to be popular, without my realizing it. Is it a good thing or a bad thing that I sound like you?(That's a rhetorical question) Hmm...I like Lornel too he has something about him that just makes you attached, I don't quite know what it is. Yes I'm tired of teacher's it's a good thing school's almost over.
