The family invited Aragorn and Gimli to have a sit and have a drink first. Aragorn and Gimli were amazed by the furnishing. It was a whole new fashion style and everything looked different from what the duo last saw.
" Would you like to do some sight seeing later? Much have changed now. It had been centuries, and now we use iPhone, iPad, Samsung Galaxy note. Instead of horses, we drive cars and take public transport. " explained Lord Elrond as he sipped his cup of tea.
" I...ipad? Is that what you have said, Lord Elrond? " asked Gimli. The two boys nodded their heads in agreement and added on, " We can even fly in the air now, on aeroplanes. "
" Fly in the air? Is it like climbing trees? I would like to have a look at everything. " said Aragorn in excitement. Elladan and Elrohir laughed at each other, telling their servants to prepare the car. The duo were totally awed by the fact that whole the vehicle can move so quickly by itself. Everything passed them like a breeze, all the scenery and buildings. The twin brothers pointed out landmarks and features of some buildings as they passed by them. Time passed very quickly and soon, it was time to fetch Legolas home from school.
" Father, it is time to fetch our youngest brother! " shouted Elladan.
" You have a younger brother? " questioned Aragorn.
" Yea, father adopted him, actually no. We found him in our garden. He is only 200 years old this year. " explained Elrohir.
" Elf age! Yes, 200 years old is considered very young indeed. " agreed Gimli." Can we meet him too? Aragorn and I would like to make another elf friend. "
" Sure! He is very friendly, but too talkative at times. " smiled Lord Elrond as he drove toward's Legolas's school. When they arrived in school, the 5 of them headed straight to the air rifle range. They spotted a petit elf standing all alone, practising his shooting. He was so focused that he didn't notice that there were people standing behind him and it was time for him to pack up. After Legolas fired his last shot, he removed his ear muffs and Lord Elrond called out to him.
" Legolas! Father is here to fetch you! " shouted Lord Elrond as he walked towards the young elf.
" Legolas?! " Aragorn and Gimli yelled in unison, before looking at Elladan and Elrohir.
" Yes, his name is Legolas. He is in fact the Legolas we know in middle age. " explained Elladan.
" Did someone just call my name? " asked Legolas.
" Legolas, we have some new friends today. They are Aragorn and Gimli. Your brothers and I have known them for a very very long time. They would be staying over at our house for quite some time, okay? " Lord Elrond mentioned, seeking approval from his youngest son. Before Legolas replied, he ran straight to Aragorn and gave him a hug. Lord Elrond and the twin brothers noticed that it must be fate, that even after so long, Legolas still developed a strong attachment and liking towards Aragorn. Aragorn stood rooted to the ground. Legolas was indeed the Legolas Aragorn knew since young. His facial expression and features were exactly the same.
On the way home, Legolas kept talking to both of them, as if they knew each other for ages. The twin brothers as well as Lord Elrond were shocked with Legolas's reaction. When Legolas had went into his room to sleep, Lord Elrond and the two brothers talk to Aragorn and Gimli more about Legolas.
" After Legolas left us, he had been training hard to be reincarnated. He was finally given the chance to live again and he was sent to us. For the past 8 years, we took care of him and I took care of him like my son. He does not remember anything which happened in the past, but all his bad habits and characteristics never changed. " explained Lord Elrond as tears could be seen welling up in his eyes.
" Legolas is a good shooter. We seldom use bows and arrows now. We use guns, knives and sometimes swords too. He is the best shooter in our family. " added Elladan, proud of his younger brother.
The school term for Legolas was coming to an end and he would be able to spend more time with his family. Now with new friends, Legolas looked forward to the start of his holidays, so that he could play with them and chat with them.
