"Where are you headed?"
I own nothing of Tolken's.AU!
"What do you mean by, different?" asked Pippin.
"As you can tell I look a lot different than Legolas. I have brown hair and green eyes, when he has blond hair and blue eyes." said Samaria.
"Well, so, you are of two different types of elves." Said Pippin.
"No, young hobbit, we are not. My ancestors were born as wood elves, but we looked not as wood elves. So the King of Mirkwood, Legolas' father, treated our kind poorly. He kept us as slaves, and servants, tortured us if we refused." said Samaria.
"Why?" asked Pippin.
"Well, you would have to ask Legolas about that. I wouldn't know why those sorry excuses for elves, treated us so." said Samaria giving Legolas an evil look.
"I do regret the things that my ancestors did to you and your kind, but I was not alive then and I have nothing to do with it." said Legolas in an angered tone.
Samaria looked down embarrassed, she was always taught to hate wood elves of Mirkwood but she never agreed with the terms. Yes she was angry for the betrayal of the wood elves, but could she really hold that against someone who was not even alive in that time? Legolas could never understand what she went through, the torture she was put to. The pain of watching their kind destroy each other.
"I'm sorry Legolas, I never thought about you not being there. I have always thought of us as the same age, although I know that I am a lot older than you." said Samaria.
"You mean, you were alive then. During the battle of the elves?" asked Legolas.
"Yes, I was." answered Samaria.
"But that would make you at least 20,000 years old." said Aragorn.
"Yes, you are right." answered Samaria.
"How old are you?" asked Merry.
"Would you all happen to know Lady Galadrail of Lothlorien?" asked Samaria.
"Yes." said them all but the hobbits.
"Well I'll put it this way, I am older than she is." said Samaria.
Everyone gasped.
"You are? But how have you lived as long as you have?" asked Gandalf.
"It isn't easy, believe me." said Samaria.
"So, to change the subject, were are you headed?" asked Aragron.
"I'm not quiet sure, I was on my way home when I got captured by the wood elves and..." started Samaria.
"So, that is who was after you, they were wood elf guards." said Legolas.
"No. If you would just let me finish. Ok. I got captured by some wood elves and taken back to Mirkwood. They threw me in the dungeon, then there was some torture involved, and I escaped. I ran away until I reached Dale. Apparently the elf king had sent a message saying I might head that way. Anyway, the guards that was looking for me were of Dale, and they will probably send more after me. So now that I've answered your questions, then maybe you will answer mine, where are all of you headed?" said Samaria.
"Aragorn, do you really think we can trust her?" asked Legolas.
"Yes, I agree with the elf, I'm not comfortable around..." started Gimli.
"What, your not comfortable around elves that will go underground were a dwarf dare not?" said Samaria mockingly.
Gimli turned red from embarrassment or anger.
"We head to Mordor on a very important and secret mission." said Aragorn.
"You mean you are going to Mordor to destroy that ring around the hobbit's neck, am I right?" said Samaria looking towards Frodo.
"I knew it she is a orc spy!" said Gimli holding his ax in a attack position.
"I'm no spy, especially for an orc." said Samaria.
"Then how do you know of The Ring?"asked Aragorn.
"I have my ways, ones that you need not to worry about." said Samaria.
"How do I know I can trust you?" asked Aragorn.
"The same way your father knew he could trust me." said Samaria.
"And what was that?" asked Aragorn.
Then Samaria said something in elfish, but not in an dialect that Legolas understood. Aragorn seemed to though. He then said something back to her, they both nodded to one another in understanding.
"So you know a safe path to Mordor." said Aragorn.
"There is no safe path to Mordor, but I do know a safer path than the one that you all are taking." said Samaria.
"And what way is that?" asked Gandalf.
