hty! Thanks to my reviewers! I did think I had some errors,... I guess I will be a better speller before this is all over! I really hate how I do run-on sentences... I trying to do desrciption, (alot of people don't do that) and I think thats what triggered it.

oh, and, I'm getting this elvish off of a site I found, I'm not sure if it is Sindarin or Quenya, or if it is just a mix of it all. But i'm trying to find Sindarin, so, I'll (hopefully) find out if I have the right language or not. Well now... go ahead and-

ENJOY!

"Look! Look my lord! There is something up ahead!" a scout shouted to Thranduil awakening him from his daze. The king dismounted from his horse and walked toward the center of the path. Big tracks were shown in deep cuts in the grass and leaves across the ground. As Aragorn dismounted he stepped into dark stickly...blood. Aragorn stepped back in discust, this was black blood, and what looked like scales littered on the ground and stuck into now moaning trees. At least we may have some idea of what happened. Aragorn thought grimly.

"Ai! Ai! Shebak!" an elf exclaimed quietly, his voice sounded shocked.

"Who's that?" Aragorn asked the dark haired elf.

"It is a great snake that attacked our patrol a few times. She attacks without warning and has killed many of our people."

"Where do you think-" but Aragorn stopped himself, there was legolas's quiver and bow.

"My lord?" A young soldir began as he pulled the weapons out of the sticky blood. Aragorn watched the elf as his eyes turned a cloudy grey and very pale.

"Is there a trail we can follow?" the king asked quietly as .

"It leads to the…" the elf glanced at Aragorn, "Utinu en lokirim."

Aragorn was shocked, was this elf that stupid? Of course he could speak elvish! He was raised by Elrond of Rivendell, and friends of many!

The king looked slightly amused "No need to speak in our language Landir, trying ot keep this secret from Aragorn. He speaks our tonge as well as you and I." The elf flushed a light pink and his eyes turned a light red colour he turned and stormed away.

"Is he alright? His eyes-" Aragorn asked as he eyed the elf's back quite taken aback.

"Landir, has a slight temper, his eyes are his warning sign." Thranduil answered distantly, his eyes on something unseen.

"Oh, may I ask who 'the son of snakes' is?"

"A, shape shifter, he was the one that- my wife was taken by."

"So there were two beasts?"

"It seems so."

And they mounted the horses while the trackers and scouts rode slightly ahead to find their prince.

It must be terrible for Thranduil, Aragorn thought, To have his son and wife taken by the same thing...

The young elf stirred slightly from his sleep, he had been having a good dream, wandering in the halls of his lost kin... What awoke him was his stomach, and something else, someone or something was coming. The prince tensed and grabbed and sharp stone with his good arm and stood up. A young elf maid walked gracefully down the dreary hall towards Legolas, there was a light from her white body that lit up all around her, her golden hair was wound with flowers and she was clothed in silver streaked robe.

"Naneth?" Legolas asked uncertainly as he stared at the beautiful figure. It indeed looked much like his mother, her face her eyes...

"Yes my little Greenleaf, how happy I am to find you!" this was his mothers face and voice, "I have been trapped by Sacarr, your father gave up hope even when I called out to him, but now I have you my son."

"Naneth? Adar said you-"

"Do not worry about what your adar has said, he did not believe I had survived." And Legolas's mother swept her arms out to him and let him breath him a sweet scent. That had to be his mother, she had survived! The woman embraced him tightly and let him rest his head upon her shoulder and fall to his knees in shock.

"I missed you," Legolas murmered into her hair, "You won't leave me?"

"Of course not! I couldn't stand to leave the sight of your face, we will be together forever."

The small party of elves had been traveling for over three hours and they still had no sight of anything but a scent of rotting flesh and a slight blood trail. Great shadows crossed the forest floor dancing in the wind and letting lose a wood smell. The trees turned a darker colour until they were black, the air was stuffy and the trees no longer had shadows that disappeared they lingered and seemed to creep closer with every step.

"Aragorn, you are an able fighter, but I want you to be very careful, and no matter what don't go into his home alright?" Thranduil whispered to him as the horses stopped suddenly throwing Aragorn slightly off balance." It will be my job to wipe him off of our consciousness and this earth." he said.

"Are you sure? I can help."

"Yes, I will destroy him."

I can't blame him for that, Aragorn thought, but I will help if necessary.

"My lord we will handle Shebak." the elf called Landir said to the King. Thranduil nodded and drew his sword and the ranger sensed that something was hiding in the shadows.

"Aragorn you will help Landir and the others with Shebak." Thranduil said. So Aragorn rode over to the others elves were he also drew his sword.

"Human stand aside! You don't need to get killed unnecessarily." Landir told him when he came to ride beside the elf.

Aragorn raised his eyebrows, "I am as good as you Landir, do not judge me by my kin."

"Just stay out of my way!" he snarled and his horse snorted tossing its head.

"She has come!" an elf shouted (before Aragorn could snap back a reply) and a great long snake lunged out from the shadows. Black scales blended in with the shadows but it had many red eyes that shone out from the dark. Blood was running freely down her chin as she snarled and hissed baring her white fangs.

Looks like Legolas got her, Aragorn thought grimly, as they others charged. Startled Aragorn spurred his horse forward and gave a savage cry.

ok, I just realized that Thranduil seems to tell Aragorn quite a bit for being human, but I think that he is a good friend of the elves and that he is easy to talk to. or so I say so.

Oh, I'm going to the mountains, er, some where by Denver so I thought I would give you this taster before I went, but I'll update as soon as I can.

oh, and legolas seemed dull witted, but, I have a reason for it!

utinu en lokirim- son of snakes

Adar- dad daddy, father

naneth- mom, mother
