Chapter 10
Lord Elrond had decided the Fellowship would leave Imladris in two weeks time. In those weeks Legolas trained Eilish on the bow several hours every day and, with the help of the twins and Glorfindel, began to teach her to use a sword. Her skating training came into play again, her strength, agility and speed aiding her immensely. Arwen helped Eilish out by procuring several pairs of leggings and a few tunics to suppliment her limited wardrobe.
Before Eilish knew it, it was the night before they were scheduled to leave. Her backpack was stuffed with her clothing and other necessities. Lord Elrond had given her a gift of a bow, a quiver full of arrows and a light elven sword. The only problem now was she was having trouble getting to sleep, tossing and turning for a long time before finally resorting to getting up and pacing in an effort to tire herself out. She was looking out the window at the beautiful night scenery, when there was a light knock on her door. She crossed the room and opened the door to find Legolas.
"Are you well, Caran?" He asked, stepping inside the room. "I heard you moving about."
She slipped her arms around him and rested her head on his chest as his arms wrapped around her. "I'm okay, Calenlass," She sighed, "Just feeling a little anxious... apprehensive."
"I am anxious as well, Caran," He admitted, pressing a soft kiss to her forehead. "This quest will be difficult, I am certain. And we may not succeed."
Eilish swallowed hard. She knew the quest would be more difficult than Legolas could imagine, but Lord Elrond and Gandalf had both insisted she not tell anyone what she knew. Eilish could tell already that keeping her secrets would be very hard to do. Even now, the urge to tell Legolas everything was almost overwhelming.
"Calenlass?" She said softly.
"Yes, Caran?" Legolas pulled away so he could see her face.
"Stay with me tonight?" She asked, her eyes silently pleading with him. "I just... I don't want to be alone."
"Of course, Caran," He whispered, drawing her back into his arms and kissing her softly.
They walked over to the bed and Eilish climbed in while Legolas snuffed the candle that lit the room. Then he, too, got into the bed, spooning up against her back and wrapping her securely in his arms. Feeling safe and protected in Legolas' embrace, Eilish quickly drifted into dreams. Legolas lay awake a while, watching her sleep, before joining her in reverie.

"Caran?" Legolas' soft voice pulled her out of her dreams early the next morning. "It is time we rose to face the day."
Eilish sighed, dreading the long journey that was to come. "Morning, 'Lass," She said gloomily as she slowly sat up in bed.
"Lord Elrond will see us off one hour from now," Legolas told her.
"Okay, I'll go get dressed," Eilish wearily got out of the comfortable bed and headed for the bathroom to change.
"I will return in a few minutes," Legolas called as he opened the door.
"'Kay," Eilish replied.
In the bathroom Eilish washed quickly, knowing it could be a while before she got a chance to have a bath again. She dressed in a pair of comfortable grey leggings and a blue tunic that Arwen had given her. As she stepped out of the bathroom, Legolas re-entered the room, dressed in fresh travel clothing. He sat on the bed and watched as she brushed her hair and seemingly effortlessly wove the long strands into a french braid, securing end end with an elastic. When she was finished with her hair she crossed the room and sat next to Legolas on the bed while she pulled on clean socks and her sneakers.
"Okay," She said as she finished tying her shoe laces, "I'm ready."
Legolas stood as well, and grabbed her backpack, which was sitting ready at the foot of the bed. He took her hand and they left the room, Eilish casting one last wistful glance around the room she'd lived in for the last fortnight, before closing the door gently behind them.

In the courtyard, the rest of the fellowship was already assembled, waiting for the elf-prince and red-haired young woman. Much of the household of Imladris was there as well: Lord Elrond, Erestor, Glorfindel and also Arwen and the twins. As Eilish and Legolas entered the yard, Eilish's eyes met Arwen's. The elf maiden looked precariously close to tears, her eyes darting back to Aragorn.
Right away Eilish walked over to Arwen while Legolas joined Aragorn and Gandalf. She immediately embraced her friend, silently giving her support.
"I know this has got to be about the hardest thing you've ever had to do," Eilish whispered in Arwen's ear, "But trust me when I say that it's going to be okay. I can't say how I know, but believe me, it'll all work out in the end. Don't give up hope."
"Thank you, meldis," Arwen sighed as they drew apart.
Eilish shot a glance over to where Legolas and Aragorn were standing, talking. "I'll keep an eye on him," She grinned. "I promise."
"Thank you, Eilish," Arwen hugged her again. "I hope to see you again soon. May the Valar protect you."
Eilish rejoined Legolas and slipped on her backpack, which the elf-prince had handed her. Lord Elrond said a few words, which didn't register in Eilish's brain; she was too apprehensive about the journey before them. Even though she knew the story, there was the possibility that it would not be exactly the same as the book and that made her even more tense. Elrond finished speaking and the fellowship took the first steps in what Eilish knew would be a much longer journey than any of them could have imagined.
