you!

Le-enolas walked along side of the mounted hobbits, she could easily keep up to the little ponies. Everything about her reflected her brother. She did not wear the dresses normally worn by the female Elvin folk or any female folk for that matter. They could have been twins for they had very few differences. Only the required ones. If you had known them for long you could have said Le-enolas has the softer features but that is for close friends to decide. Last we left off at the wee Hobbits joking about their poor old hearts.
"You think you are old, how do you guess what my age is!"
"You're of the immortals though" Pippin supplied
"It wouldn't make too much of a difference"
"Oh come on you're only a few thousand years older than us!" Merry said.
"Yes only a few. Still a teenager by my folk and a tween by yours. If you follow by age I would be under a head of stone by you're people."
"So how long before Strider get here?" Sam asked
"Probably 3 days"
"3 days!"
"That is about the time I ran away from all of the adults"
"You ran away!" Pippin laughed
"Yes actually, I do that quite often. My father refuses to believe I am his daughter. I have never lived in the palace since the day I burned all of my dresses!" Merry and Pippin had quite a laugh at this. They knew of how her father acted. Around him she would never call him father though. Sam seemed a little distraught they only had 3 days to prepare for the king to come.
By nightfall they reached tookburough. Le-enolas was greeted warmly and offered a room, which as usual she declined. Sam took over and told them they would soon have the party of the ring over and rooms were needed. So the Hobbits got their biggest rooms prepared with the finest silks and other things. They spent time running around and preparing until late. Mostly about the foods they would cook! They had everything planned out within the hour. Le-enolas helped as much as they would allow. In the end she ended up playing with the hobbit children. They were all begging for a story soon.
"What would you like it to be about?"
"Legolas!" They shouted. They knew she would always tell a funny one about Legolas.
"Okay, well a long time ago when Legolas was little, as little as a hobbit child, he loved to play the pretending game. One day he was pretending he was squirrel, He found the biggest tree in the palace. He loved to climb the tree, but was forbidden to climb too high. So Mr. Legolas squirrel climbed to the lower branches. He was content playing there, until he saw an acorn. It was only a little bit higher up. He thought he would be safe there. Then he saw a whole bunch of acorns. He went to gather them just a little higher up. Well, he didn't realize how high he was climbing. He climbed so high the tower of Saruman would have seemed smaller!"
"Oilephants too?" One brave boy asked
"Oilephants looked so small from up there you would have thought them ants! So he climbed higher and higher until he realized he was at the top of the tree. He just happened to look down and when you are high up you never want to look down! He gathered up all the courage he could and started to climb down. Right about then a real squirrel came and started to chatter! E frightened poor Legolas so much he fell! Down and down he fell and right as he was about to crash in to the ground *SWOOSH * (A couple of gasps sounded) Father caught him! It seems father was watching him from the study and as he got too high he went to call him back. Legolas was so high though he couldn't hear his name being called. So he was saved! He did get into trouble for climbing too high, but other than that he was just fine"
A few chuckles were heard from the back of the group. Merry and Pippin had come around the middle of the story.
"A tree higher than Sarumans tower, aye?" Merry asked
"Yes it was"
"It must have been a big tree," Pippin added
'Oh it was!" One of the hobbit children said. He and his friends continued to tell the tale to Merry and Pippin and later that night to any adults who would listen. The only thing Le-enolas feared from story telling was how her brother would react.

So how was that one? I had a lot of fun writing that! It was good for me. I am going to sleep now!
Ice Lynx: I am glad it was okay and maybe now you can judge if you like it? Thank you!
Scrawler: This basically has nothing to do with LOTR except the fellowship and a few references. Hope you like it!
Please review!
