Chapter 3: Aragorn Underneath the Mango Tree
"NO! NO!! NOOOOOO!!" Missy screamed in horror. "There's something in those bushes!!" She began leaping in a circle and wringing her hands. She leapt behind Becky and Legolas.
"WHAT? A SPIDER?!" Becky shrieked and leapt onto Legolas' back. She clutched onto his long blond hair. "A LION? A TIGER? A BEAR? OH MY!!"
Legolas yelped in pain and nearly fell over from the weight on his back. Nevertheless, he strung an arrow into his bow and began firing off into the bushes.
All the while, Becky shrieked and clung tighter to Legolas. Missy kept jumping up and down and shrieking. Finally she clung onto Legolas.
That was obviously the last straw for Legolas who promptly fell over from the weight of the two girls.
"Um, sorry Leggy," Becky said, getting to her feet rather loudly. "I'm just afraid of spiders, ya know."
Legolas got to his feet gracefully and without a sound. He gracefully tiptoed over to the bushes, his bow ready. He peered into the bushes. He laughed silently and put down his bow. He reached into the bushes and gently scooped up a shivering white bunny.
"Is this your spider?" Legolas said, smiling. He held the bunny against his chest and stroked its fur. He began murmuring to it in Elvish.
Becky gazed at Legolas, a love struck expression glazing her eyes.
"He's supposed to be an Elvish warrior and he shot at everything BUT the bunny because I screamed a bush was moving?" Missy rolled her eyes. "What if it really was a spider?"
"He was just jumpy," Becky immediately defended her Elf. "Now if you'll excuse me, I must be over there. He should be whispering sweet Elvish nothings to ME, not the rabbit."
She began heading over in Legolas' direction but Missy grabbed her arm. "Oh no you don't Miss Greenleaf. WE have to find Aragorn."
"Oh of course," Legolas said. He bent to scoop up his bow with one hand. With the other he still held the rabbit who no longer trembled. In fact the rabbit was gazing at Legolas rapturously. "All right, little rabbit. Fear no longer."
He set the rabbit down and gave it one last stroke on the head. The bunny hopped off happily into the bushes. Legolas went back again to retrieve all his arrows.
Becky sighed and began gravitating towards Legolas again. Missy immediately grabbed her and steered her forward.
The cousins and Legolas continued walking in silence for a while. They walked on and on and on and deeper into the woods.
It was when the silence was becoming unbearable, Becky decided to start singing.
"The Road goes ever on and on......" she started up, swaying from side to side with the music.
"Please NO!" Missy clamped her hands over her ears.
Legolas winced and covered his pointy ears. Suddenly cocked his head to the left, listening to something far away. A smile spread over his features and he raced off, beckoning the girls to follow him.
Becky and Missy shrugged, but they darted after him nevertheless. They wound their way over large tree roots and boulders until finally they reached a clearing.
However, this clearing had one tree. A mango tree. Yes, a mango tree. And underneath this mango tree, dozed Aragorn.
"OHMYGOSH. Is that Aragorn?" Missy whispered, clinging to Becky's arm. "Tell me that's not a big, red bow on his head."
"That is a big, red bow on his head," Becky confirmed, snickering to herself.
"He's underneath a mango tree," Missy noticed. "Hey, let's go pull of Legolas's bow and then we can go pull off Aragorn's."
Becky grabbed one end of the bow atop Legolas' head and tugged while Missy grabbed the other. The bow unravelled and fell on top of Aragorn. Aragorn murmured something in his sleep that sounded suspiciously like "Arwen, STOP THAT!"
Legolas just shook his head and smiled. He gestured for Becky and Missy to move aside but they pounced on Aragorn and shook him, Missy landing on his legs and Becky's knees on his chest.
Becky soon found the blade of Aragorn's sword against her throat and a bleary-eyed Aragorn gazing at her.
"No! Estel!" Legolas said, pushing the blade of Aragorn's sword away. "They mean no harm!"
"He loves me," Becky said, the glazed expression back in her eyes. "He saved me from Aragorn who was about to kill me because he thought I was dangerous. Legolas loves me."
"NO HE DOESN'T," Missy put in helpfully. Then she added in a softer whisper to Legolas, "If she keeps up with this, I WILL kill her."
"Legolas?!" Aragorn looked at the Elf as if he'd never seen him before. "What am I doing here? Where are we? Who are they?"
"My name is Missy and that's my cousin, Becky," Missy nodded to Becky who was applying a thick coat of blood red lipstick to her lips and she was aiming those lips at Legolas.
"We are on Earth," Legolas added helpfully. "They are only mere children, Estel. They only wished to help you."
"I am sorry," Aragorn nodded with a sincere look at Becky who immediately grinned from ear-to-ear.
"Awwww. That's okay, sugar," Becky said, winking at Missy. "Any 'friend' of Missy's is a friend of mine!"
The two girls broke into hysterical laughter.
"Earth?" Aragorn echoed, surprise etched on his features. "Is that near Middle-earth?"
Legolas looked puzzled and the cute little crease between his eyebrows came back.
"Have you seen Gimli, Gandalf and the others?" Aragorn asked, getting to his feet and sheathing his sword.
"Don't you mean where's Arwen?" Missy said and the cousins laughed evilly. Legolas couldn't help but chuckle and then began to full out laugh.
"What about Arwen?" Aragorn said, gazing about the clearing. "Um, was I talking in my sleep?"
Becky and Missy glanced at each other and snickered. "YES."
And that was the first time Becky and Missy ever saw a Ranger blush.
"No I haven't seen anyone else since my arrival," Legolas said, in answer to Aragorn's question. "With the exception of you."
"Do you think Frodo is here too?" Becky asked. "I would so love to hug him. Isn't he the CUTEST?"
"Frodo," Aragorn echoed, his eyes darting from Becky to Legolas.
"It is alright. They know," Legolas said but turned to the cousins with a suddenly dead blank expression. "How do you know these things?"
"Because I am the all powerful BECKY GREENLEAF!" Becky announced. The last two words she shouted dramatically. However this did not impress nor intimidate Aragorn and Legolas who just stared back. Missy snickered into the back of her hand.
"Greenleaf?" Aragorn said, a smile spreading over his features. "Is she related to you, Legolas?"
"Never," Legolas replied quickly with a deadly glare at Aragorn.
"Well, Missy was supposed to perform our wedding ceremony but Legolas refuses to marry me unless he properly knows me," Becky said, pouting. "I even have our rings!"
She held up a box with two perfect imitations of Nenya, Galadriel's ring.
"So it's not the traditional gold but I think it's pretty. Don't you think it's pretty, Leggy?" Becky turned to the confused Elf who smiled politely.
"My, but you already have ALL that planned, do you not?" Aragorn asked, trying to suppress his laughter but failing miserably.
"Yep. But I'm not finished yet. You should see the dress I have for our wedding!" Becky got an excited look in her eyes. "It's floor length and it's green and gold and it has these------"
"Okay, okay. Can't you see you're scaring Legolas to death?" Missy clamped a hand over her cousin's mouth. "We have far more important things to worry about."
"Yeah. Like the fact that it's half-past five," Becky said, glancing at her watch. "And my Legolas t-shirt has a spot of dirt. OH NO!"
"Where?" Missy asked, grabbing Becky's t-shirt and inspecting it. "What are you talking about?"
"Right there," Becky pointed to a miniscule spot of dirt at the very edge of the shirt.
Missy rolled her eyes and bopped her cousin on the head with a fallen tree branch.
"Is that Legolas?" Aragorn asked, coming closer to Becky to get a better look at her shirt. "By the Valar, it is him!!"
Poor Legolas slunk back even further against the back of the tree and attempted to hide his face.
"I have an Aragorn t-shirt home too. It's cute but I don't wear it that often," Becky said, batting her eyes at Legolas. "I have eyes for only one!"
"Becky will you behave?! We have to find ourselves back home right now," Missy said, hands on her hips. "Come on. Start walking."
She took hold of Becky and the two cousins began trudging back in the direction they'd come from.
They'd been walking for a couple of minutes when they realized Legolas and Aragorn were still in the clearing, sitting beneath the mango tree.
"What are you doing?" Missy asked, jogging back to them.
"Yeah. I thought you guys were right behind us," Becky said. Behind her back she'd slipped on her ring and was inching close to Legolas' hand, to see if she could slip his on.
"We wish to continue our search for our friends," Aragorn said.
"But I thank you for helping me find Aragorn. Thank you for giving me food and letting me sleep beneath your.......Christmas tree?" Legolas said, smiling.
"And this is a lovely tree, speaking about trees," Aragorn gestured to the mango tree he was leaning on. "What is it called?"
"It is a mango tree," Becky replied, as if finding mango trees in forests that were nowhere near tropical was normal.
"Yeah. Have a mango," Missy picked one of the fruits from the tree and handed it to Aragorn.
"I think you should be off now. Thank you again," Legolas waved the cousins off.
"Are you sure you wanna continue your search out here in the straaaaaaaaannnnnnnngggge woods at night? All by yourselves. With only mangoes?" Becky lowered her voice to make it sound spooky.
Once again, she had absolutely no effect on Legolas and Aragorn.
"FINE. I'm not going till you're coming home with me!" Becky immediately attached herself to Legolas. He gazed down at Becky, eyebrows lifted.
"Please?" Missy begged. "It should be just the four of us. Something tells me your parents won't be back by now. You know what happens when parents start talking. They usually don't stop for a very long time."
"Yeah, you definitely have to come with us. We'll order you pizza. And the two of you could stay underneath the Christmas tree," Becky suggested. "I'll push around the gifts so you could fit."
"Alright," Aragorn said, a bit reluctantly. "We shall come."
"Just please...stop hugging me!" Legolas begged, detaching Becky who went away with a pout.
"Alrighty then! Well off we go to home! Don't worry guys!" Missy said, trudging off, hands firmly attached to Aragorn's elbow.
"Yeah. We'll help you look for everyone else tomorrow," Becky said, steering Legolas ahead of her. "But tonight, we're gonna have the best time."
And off poor Aragorn and Legolas went, homeward bound to Becky's house, their only companions themselves and the two crazy, gigging girls.
