For you @ginger300 :D

Legolina's POV 

'Legolas. can you tell me, what are we doing here?!' I ask him impatiently. Only 3 hours ago my twin brother told me to come with him and Tauriel to the woods, but he didn't tell me on what purpose. Now we are wondering here just walking and searching for something. 

'Didn't ada tell you that we need to kill those spiders here?'  

'No, he didn't, but.... I don't understand....., didn't we kill them last month?' I asked him in confusion. Ever since the dark powers invaded our forest, it had become much darker than before. No squirrels or deers were running around, only giant venomous spiders. No traveller should come here, because besides monsters we have enchanted rivers that whomever drinks from them, will fall asleep. 

Suddenly we hear rustling from behind the trees and start running towards the noise. When we reach our destination, we see that 13 dwarves are trying to fight giant spiders. 'Kill the spiders!' says Legolas while drawing an arrow and firing it. 

'Legolina, from behind! I hear Tauriel's voice and jump out of the spider's way and swiftly cut it's head off.  

When we killed them all, we started surrounding all the dwarves. They didn't look scared that much, but I still saw a little bit of fear few's eyes. My eyes landed on a dark haired and blue eyed dwarf and I immediately thought that he was handsome. 

Thorin's POV 

When we stopped fighting, I couldn't even do a single step forward, because the next thing I noticed was that an arrow was pointing at me. It was an elf, who strongly resembled that elvish king. Thranduil. He was looking at me with disdain and suspicion. 

"Do not think I won't kill you, dwarf. It would be my pleasure." 

From the corner of my eye, I saw a female elf glaring at him. 'Legolas, let me handle this' 'Stay aside Lina.' I didn't know what they were saying, but I could guess that from how his words sounded, he said wasn't pleased at all. Blasted elves. Every corner in the world, is full of them. Yes, Lord Elrond was at least tolerable, but Mirkwood elves? No! They are betrayers, all of them! But the woman beside him, could she be his sister? If so then I don't have anything to tell her. 

'Search them.' Suddenly they started coming towards us and touching our clothes. I knew they were searching for weapons and this kind of situation, I was bound to give them away. 

'Don't be ridiculous brother, they haven't done anything wrong.' The female elf spoke again and I could see that when she looked at the company, she had compassion in her eyes. Perhaps I was too quick to....judge her. 

'Take them!' The elf shouted something in elvish and the next thing I knew, we were being taken to elvish kingdom. 

*Skipping dialogue with Thranduil* 

They pushed me into the cell and then Balin asked me "So what did you tell them? Did you make a deal?" I looked into his eyes and shouted "I told them: Ish khaqwe ai'durugnul! Him and all his kin!" He looked disappointed "So now we're stuck here." 

Legolina's POV 

'Father, why did you have to put them into the cells?!' He looked coldly at me. Normally this look didn't bring good and I knew it wouldn't bring anything good now. 

'Because he refuses to cooperate. He wants to reclaim his kingdom from a dragon and take back what he now desires most, The Arkenstone' I couldn't believe it, he was planning to take back Erebor? This was madness, but I knew that there was still chance to reclaim it. 

I bid my father goodbye and went to the dungeons, the least I could do was to try to help them escape. When I arrived there, all of the dwarves stopped talking. A few of them were looking at me in curiosity, the rest didn't pay any attention to me. I stopped at the head dwarf celldoor. 

He turned his head towards me and I could see that that he was trying to understand the reason of me coming here. "What do you want elf?" He said in tired voice from which I could hear a tone of disgust. 

"I want to help you all escape." Now all the dwarves were looking at me with suspicion and curiosity. 

"Escape? Why would an elf like you, try to help us escape from this wretched place?" "Look, I know you don't like me, but please believe me, I want to free you all, so you could continue on your journey " I answered him, desperately trying to convince him to believe me. 

"Well, first you could tell us, what your name is?" 

"Legolina. You talked to my father, I know. I don't agree with him. It's not humane to put innocent people into cells like prisoners." A look of surprise passed on his face, but he quickly composed himself again. 

"Well your words are honest, but I still don't trust you." 

"You don't understand," I told him tiredly, "I am not like them, I don't hate dwarves, infact you are the first dwarves I've ever seen. But this is not the point, the point is that I want to leave this place. Do you know how lonely it is for me to sit in the palace all day not leaving it? I' ve never been outside Mirkwood, I don't know what else is out there." 

He didn't say anything, I knew he was still processing what I said. Finally he looked at me again and said "I'm....sorry.....Legolina. I didn't know, that Thranduil had been so cruel towards you. Please help us." I gave him only a smirk in return. 

Well that was a long chap, but it was worth it. I hope you all like it guys. I will try to publish next request tomorrow evening. Please vote and comment,
