" Where is Legolas? " Aragorn asked with a frown on his forehead.
" Legolas he is fine, he is in his room now. " explained Lord Elrond. Aragorn got out of his bed and asked Lord Elrond to lead the way to Legolas's room. They didn't hold back Aragorn as the doctor told them that Aragorn was fine and fit to move around. Lord Elrond brought Aragorn to Legolas's ward, where Legolas was resting.
Legolas sat up on his bed and was watching television programmes. When he heard his door cringed open, he turned to look who had arrived and saw his friends.
" Aragorn! " shouted Legolas. At that instant, his voice was so similar to the Legolas Aragorn knew in Middle Age. Aragorn mistook him for the Legolas that he knew.
" Legolas! You are alive! " screamed Aragorn. With that, Aragorn ran to Legolas and hugged him in joy.
" Aragorn, what are you doing? Why would I be dead? " asked Legolas curiously, clueless about what happened.
" You left me, I thought you hurt me, but it was actually Sauron and I failed to forgive you before you left.. " Aragorn cried, but all these seemed foreign to Legolas.
" What are you talking about? It doesn't make sense at all! I only remember that we got into a car accident and just now the police came to tell me that they found that a punctured tire caused the accident. " explained Legolas.
" Pull Aragorn back. " ordered Lord Elrond. Elladan nodded and pulled Aragorn back to a standing position.
" Aragorn, he isn't the Legolas in Middle Age. He is our brother! " Elladan tried knocking some sense into Aragorn. Gimli walked over, placing his arm on Aragorn's shoulder as he knew that his friend had been through a hard time following Legolas's death in Middle Age. Aragorn calmed down and realised what he had done.
" I am sorry Legolas, I got too carried away. But believe me, actually you met all of us long who in Middle Age! " apologised Aragorn.
" Aragorn! This is not our agenda. Our main aim is now to find out who caused the accident, who caused the punctured tire. The investigation so far told us that the tire was punctured by a bullet and that bullet apparently came from an orc's gun! All orcs hold the same type of gun with that special and unique bullet which is easily identified among us. " said Lord Elrond.
" Okay, we can fight them with our swords and axes, I am sure they are faster than those lousy guns! " beamed Gimli, unaware that obviously guns are faster. Elladan and Elrohir rolled their eyes, too lazy to explain the effectiveness of guns.
" We can't fight by ourselves in this state. The orcs have grown in numbers over the past few years, secretly training in different bases. Many elves have been killed during their encounter with orcs. " inferred Lord Elrond from his experience over the years. The twin brothers nodded in agreement. Things could be worse if the orcs are coming and attacking them for Aragorn and Gimli.
" Everything will be fine. I am sure we can fight the orcs if they attack us. There are so many of us and all the other elves who are willing to help us anytime. " Legolas added, trying to change the tense atmosphere to happy one.
Legolas had to be hospitalised that night for his broken wrist, so Aragorn and Gimli left with Lord Elrond and the twin brothers. In the night, Aragorn dreamt of Legolas. Aragorn woke up hastily from his sad dream. Aragorn desperately wanted young Legolas to remember everything, remember him as a friend and remember what they had gone through together in Middle Age. Aragorn hated to see Legolas being totally different from what he had remembered.
As time passed, the orcs didn't attack, but there were many occasions where Aragorn tried to force Legolas to remember what happened during Legolas's recovery at home. Elladan and Elrohir had to stop Aragorn. Gimli tired talking to Aragorn too, telling him that he ought to accept facts. Lord Elrond was furious that Aragorn wouldn't change and warned Aragorn numerous times as all his questioning was adding pressure to Legolas, a mere young elf.
The orcs shifted closer and closer to the residence of Lord Elrond and his family. The forces were growing at a rapid pace. Each time, Legolas forgave Aragorn for his continuous pressing for an answer. But each time, Aragorn got more and more desperate.
After another failed attempt, Aragorn went to get a breather outside, with Gimli comforting Legolas. As Aragorn wandered on the streets outside the residence, some orcs appeared out of nowhere and confronted him. The streets were so deserted that no one else except Aragorn and the orcs were on the streets. Aragorn held no weapons with him.
" You are Aragorn! We found that you, on the Internet. But aren't you supposed to be dead? You are a mortal! " shouted an orc. Aragorn did not reply.
" My friend.. " said the orc.
" Who is your friend? Don't call me friend! " replied Aragorn with a nasty glare.
" You replied! Great, let me cut the chase. I know what you want. You want Legolas to remember what happened back then. You wanted him to remember the case where Sauron had entered his body. " said the orc full of confidence that he got his facts right.
" How do you know all these? " questioned Aragorn. " Answer me! "
" It's easy to eavesdrop given the current technology. And I have to do is to do a Google search if the facts are right and ask my Lord. The wisest Lord ever, smarter than all the elves. " laughed the Orc.
" What do you want me to do? What is your purpose? " Aragorn asked impatiently.
" I don't want anything from you. I will give you the potion from my lord. The potion can help your friend regain memory in his past life. But one dose isn't enough. You have to keep coming back for more! " replied the Orc, confident that his plan had worked out well and as expected.
