Legolas Future

Chapter 1


Pairing - Legolas/OC


************************************************************************


Many, many years after Saroun and the one ring was destroyed things in Middle-earth started to change.


Since the death of King Ellessar, which was hundreds of years ago, the lands and their people had started to become separate from one another.


The dwarves stayed hidden in their mountains to scared of the danger that lurks on the outside. The small hobbit folks were no more and the elves were being run over by the one known species, men.


When King Ellessar had died his son, who became the next king had a bit of a disagreement with one of the elves who was also a king.


A conflict had broken out between the two kings and a new war had begun. It did not turn out to well, many men and elves lost their lives over a pitiful battle.


Since then men and elves never got along again the men had started to catch any elf they could and turn them into slaves. The elf community was becoming short, in the elves perspective anyway.


The men were not all that kind to their elf servants, they would use them for sex toys if they wanted to.


Many elves would be bounded to their master since they hadn’t been bounded to another elf. It was mainly the young elves which were only a few years past their majority.


Some elves had died of grief for what happened to them but others tried to keep their pride up until they would find away to escape.


The only elves who were safe from men, were the Mirkwood elves which lived in the misty mountains. Their King had known what was happening to his kind outside his borders.


Thranduil is a very wise and kind king, he does everything in his power to keep his people safe. He had wanted to order his army to help his fellow elf folk but not even his large army would defeat the world of men.


Thranduil felt that he would be sacrificing his men for an already lost war. The great king felt a lot of guilt inside but he had his people to worry about.


Thranduil also had his wife Nanual and their two sons Lethrion and Legolas. Lethrion was his eldest son and heir to the Mirkwood throne. Legolas was his youngest and second heir incase something happened to Lethrion.


Their was not very much difference between Legolas and his older brother, they both loved to fight and had very strong pride.


Many elvin maidens tried to grab their attention, which Lethrion happily liked to receive. Though with Legolas he wasn’t into the affection from other maidens the only affection he liked was from his mother.


Legolas loved his mother very much, she was the one who gave him life and was always their for him when he was just a mere elfling.


When Legolas was growing up he always thought his mother was a beautiful angel. She had long flowing gold hair and crystal blue eyes. The whole kingdom loved his mother always looking up to her for guidance when needed.


Legolas vowed to never let any harm come to his mother and kept that as his main personal order.


It was a sunny day in Mirkwood and Legolas was in the field firing arrows. When ever their was something on the young princes mind, archery was the key to release it.


“So what’s on your mind this time little brother” Lethrion asked walking up to him “its nothing that concerns you, big brother” Legolas replied firing another arrow. “Come now you can tell me, besides its better to tell someone your problems than to keep them locked up inside” Lethrion said.


Legolas stopped what he was doing but didn’t face his older brother, “father still wont send out the army to help our fellow elves” Legolas told him “now Legolas you know why father cant do that, he would be sending the soldiers to their death and some into slavery” Lethrion replied.


“What if father was wrong, what if we could win then all the other elves would be free from this demon fate” Legolas then said, this time looking at his brother. “I know how you feel Legolas but it is not our place, we must follow our fathers orders no matter how much we might disagree with them” Lethrion wanted to make his brother understand.


“I just wish we could do something” Legolas said in a quiet voice and his head down. He then felt a hand on his shoulder. “Don’t worry yourself so much I am sure that one day every elf in middle earth who have been suffering will be free” Lethrion told him.


They both then walked back to the palace without even saying a single word to one another.

In the forest their was a band of men making camp, their were only about twenty men in the group. They had been walking through the forest to reach their destination which was their home land.


They had been traveling for over a month and along their way they had caught three elves. They were only young, to the men they would look around the age of seventeen to their eyes.


“Hey boss how much further is it till we reach Mirohi” one of the men asked his leader “only a few days more at least three or four at the most” the leader told the other man.


The leaders name was Gavin, he wasn’t a very kind man well to the elves he wasn’t kind. He was a slave trader, catch as many elves he could and then sell them to high lords or even kings.


Those who could give him a real good price for his prisoners. This time he had planned to sell his new prisoners to their own lord this time.


Gavin wanted to catch at least one more elf before they reached their home land. It would be great if they came across one before their travel was over.


************************************************************************


In Mirkwood, Legolas was saddling up his horse because he had decided to go on a horse ride. Since no humans dared to come into the misty mountains it was safe for him to go for a bit of a ride.


Legolas was soon ready, he got on and then started to ride out of the palace grounds. He had promised his father that he would be back before sun down.


The ride was great, Legolas felt really good being out in the forest surrounded by many trees. He stopped his horse at a small lake, just to have a bit of a brake before they continued on some more.


When his horse was drinking Legolas felt like he was being watched for some reason. He looked around but their wasn’t anyone insight.


The young prince knew that their wouldn’t be any humans around since they never come in this far into the forest but how wrong he was.


Before the elf knew it a sudden blow was hit on the back of his head and darkness over came him.


A few hours later Legolas was waking up, his eyes were a little fuzzy but once they cleared he realized he was in a cage.


“Where am I” he asked himself “your in the hands of men now” a voice said from behind him. Legolas turned around and saw an elf who was also in the cage with him along with two others.


“Wait are you saying I have been caught by men” Legolas asked “yeap that’s right” the elf replied. “Holy valar, I’ve got to get out of here” Legolas was getting rather edgy now “unfortunately that’s impossible, we have already tried” the elf said again.


“Then were are we going” Legolas asked “to Mirohi their home land, the leader known as Gavin is going to be selling us, hopefully to his lord for a heavy price” the elf told the prince.


“So your awake” a man said, Legolas looked at him with pure hatred in his eyes. “Let me go now” Legolas said. The man laughed “sorry kid but your coming with us, I can get a really good price for a beauty like you” the man told him.


He then walked of, “I have got to get out of here” Legolas just whispered to himself. He thought about his parents and his older brother wondering if they had realized he was now missing.


It was night time and Legolas hoped that a search party was out looking for him. He had realized that they were starting to leave Mirkwood.


It was up to fate now, for his future seemed to be held in the hands of men now.
