In a different world{BOOK 1}Legolas X OC

chapter four- An expected unexpected encounter

"That is if she can beat me!" Legolas stated smirking back at his friends but when he looked at Eliriel who was at his right side, he found her smirking back.

"I think I just did!" She said as she passed him, her foot touching the finish line.

Tauriel and Laerornel started laughing at Legolas's disappointed expression since he lost and Eliriel just grinned at him, enjoying her victory.

"It seems you are indeed getting slower!" Eliriel teased him like she did before.

"I just got distracted is all! Don't think you're going to win next time." He responded finding an excuse to justify his loss. " I am not getting slower!"

"Whatever you say Legolas!" Eliriel chuckled, enjoying teasing him.

All four friends talked a bit while walking back. As they were getting closer to the gates, a male elf came running to them. A worried expression on his face.

"What is it Galdir?" Legolas said as the group stopped to listen to the elf.

"It's the spiders my lord." The elf said bowing slightly to the group. "They are getting closer and closer to our borders!"

Moments after the elf informed Legolas, he gathered a few guards and his friends and they all went in the forest. As they were walking deeper and deeper into the forest, the encountered more and more spiders. Which of course they killed. But Laerornel noticed that the ones that got away were all going in the same direction. And it wasn't towards the kingdom.

Just then, they all heard shrieks coming from that direction. 'Something is off.' Tauriel thought as she looked at her friends and by the look in their eyes they agreed with her too.

Legolas ordered everyone to quietly follow him as he walked towards the sound. To make minimum noise the elves climbed on the trees and inspected their surroundings.

Suddenly a group of dwarves came into their view. They were getting attacked by the spiders and were trying to save themselves.

'It's Thorin and the company!' Eliriel thought, her eyes widening but she quickly changed her expression not wanting to get noticed.

Legolas's face hardens as he sees the dwarves. He motioned everyone to attack the spiders and then he jumped off the tree, grabbing the web string of a spider's web and using that to slide down killing two spiders in the process. After that he slided in front of Thorin, who was holding his sword ready for an attack. At that point the entire company was surrounded by elves.

"Do not think I won't kill you dwarf, it would be my pleasure." Legolas said in a serious tone while holding his bow in front of him ready to fire an arrow at Thorin.

Thorin and the company just glared at him as more elves came closer to them.

Suddenly yelling was heard and Fili turned around recognizing the voice. "Kili!" He shouted worried that something had happened to his brother.

Tauriel and Eliriel were closer to him and jumped of a tree, after killing a lot of spiders on it, to help him.

Kili was trying to kick a spider off of him as it bit his leg. But then Tauriel shot the spider with on of her arrows, making Kili turn around to look, while Eliriel rolled on the ground as she landed and stabbed another spider that was close to them.

The two elleths were busy trying to save the dwarf killing spiders left and right.

"Throw me a dagger!" Kili shouted at the girls desperate as a spider was getting close to him. "Quick!"
