LOTR Aftermath Story
Chapter 5
In the distance they could finally see the forest of Lorien. "I am not being blindfolded again. Plus, have we even thought about we're gonna sneak a criminal around?" Gimli argued. "Well, we should at least stay for the night. They probably won't blindfold you considering we just saved Middle Earth. But...yeah I have no clue what to do about Seva. "Say she's your wife or something," Gimli said. "Yeah, sure. That's soooo gonna work. Just because the prince of Mirkwood says she's allowed they're gonna unlock all their doors and perfectly fine with a national criminal in Lorien," Legolas said sarcastically. "Well, we could always just go around the forest, stupid elf," Gimli muttered. "Plus, isn't Mirkwood near here. Just a day or so away or something? That's go there. Forget Erid Mithrin, we just party in your palace or something? You have ale right?" Legolas glared at him, "Yeah, I'm not exactly a fan of you trashing my home. Why don't you go back to the mountains or something? I could probably lone you a horse, err pony. Yeah, you'd probably need a pony because it would take you forever to try and climb up onto a horse." Gimli glared at him and barked, "You'll die by my axe if you say that again!" Suddenly Legolas flinched and started panicking as Seva shrugged in his arms and moaned. "I think she's waking up!" Legolas whispered in utter panic. He didn't want her thinking he was being all creepy or anything! "If she hadn't slept in days it's probably her just stretching her sleep or something. She probably won't wake for at least a few more hours. Now I have to come with you," Gimli reassured. Legolas calmed down a little and looked over at Gimli questioningly, "Why do you now have to come with me?" Gimli burst out laughing, "Cause your in love my friend, and it's making you a nervous wreck. Without me you would have stood there in a panic for who know's how long. Or do something even more stupid. Well, let's go to Mirkwood!" Legolas sighed, Gimli was right. He had never really loved anyone before, and he was going crazy. He had no clue what to do. Especially since she was human. If she was an elf at least he'd know her sleeping patterns or something. Ok, now that just sounded creepy. "Are you ok? You've been staring off in a daze for a couple minutes," Gimli said as he prodded Legolas with the handle of his axe. "Yeah, yeah. I'm fine. Let's go," Legolas said as he started walking away from Lorien.
