(Linde's POV)

When Esmee and Femke left, we decided that we should indeed go out, just so we wouldn't be interrupted by Femke or Esmee at the wrong time. We went to Central Park where we lived nearby. We walked around looking at our beautiful view. I walked next to Noa. "Do you really think they know us? They could also be some weird stalkers." I asked a little worried. "I know, but we've dreamed about living in Middle-Earth since the first time we read the books when we were young. Let's just see what happens." Noa replied. "Let's get to know them then!" I exclaimed. "Yeah, that will be fun!" We led the handsome elves to a bench next to a small lake. "So obviously you know a lot about us but we don't know a lot about you personally." Noa said. "Well, I am the Elvenking of Mirkwood and Legolas is the prince." I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, we know that. We've read the books and seen the movies. What about you Personally." I said defining the word personally. "I don't think there is much to learn about us. Maybe while we're in Mirkwood you'll learn more about us but now I can't think of anything." Legolas replied. "We are able to tell you something about yourselfs. If you want to." Legolas said looking us in our eyes. I looked at Noa not knowing what to do, say yes or no. Noa nodded. "Alright, tell us about our life before we left Middle-Earth." Noa answered. She always wanted to know more about our past. I did too but somewhere I was also a bit scary. ''Well, let's start with your parents. They were Silvan elves and the four of them were one of our best soldiers. They loved you more than anything in the world but when the dark power came over Middle-Earth they send you away scared that something would happen to you. They wished that when all of this was over you'd come back home." Thranduil explained. I looked at Noa again. I think we were both thinking the same. "They were?" I asked with a sad tone. Legolas and Thranduil nodded sadly. "They died protecting Middle-Earth." Legolas said softly. There was a long silence. I gazed into the distance admiring the park. Thranduil broke the silence. "Will you come to Middle-Earth with us?" Noa and I looked at each other and then both nodded. "But can we take Esmee and Femke with us?" I asked. Thranduil sighed but Legolas nodded. "Of course you can! Only if they want to of course and when they do they have to leave everything behind." I smiled happily and quickly stood up. "Come on, let's ask them now!" I exclaimed pulling Noa to her feet. Noa and I started walking and were followed by the elves.

We reached our apartment and we woke up Esmee and Femke. We took them to the livingroom where Legolas and Thranduil were sitting on the couch. "What's wrong?" Esmee asked a little annoyed we woke her up in the middle of the night. "We have some weird news for you." Femke looked very confused. "What do you mean weird?" "Maybe you should first sit down. It's kind of shocking." Noa said softly laughing. The girls sat down on the chairs in front of the couch. Noa and I sat in between Legolas and Thranduil. "So what do you want to tell us?" Esmee asked curiously. "Well, I guess we should begin with telling you who these men really are." Femke and Esmee looked confused. "They're Tony and Louis. We know." Femke commented. "No, they're not. This is Thranduil, and this is Legolas."

(Esmee's POV)

"Not, they're not. This is Thranduil, and this is Legolas." Linde said pointing at the two men next to her. I knew it! Now I know why they looked so familiar! "As in from your favorite books and movies?" Femke asked. The four of them nodded in sync. "So... not a halloween costume?" She asked sadly. Linde rolled her eyes and Noa facepalmed. "Anyway, that's not the weird part." Linde said. "Not weird! Two fictional character are sitting on our couch, Linde! What do you mean that isn't the weird part!" I exclaimed. Linde shushed me. "Thranduil and Legolas came here to bring two people back to Middle-Earth. And those two people just turned out to be Noa and me." Linde continued. My jaw dropped in disbelief. Femke started laughing hysterically. "That's the worst prank ever!" She said between laughs. "Femke, it's not a prank." Noa said calmly. Femke stopped laughing. "But you're not going with them are you?" She asked a little worried. "We are." Linde said. "You can't leave us!" Femke almost screamed. "That's why we wanted to ask if you wanted to come with us." Noa offered. I glanced at Femke and she had a shocked impression. My face was probably the same. "Of course I'll come!" Femke screamed happily. Noa and Linde smiled relieved. Then they looked at me for my answer. "Will you come with us, Esmee?" Linde asked hopeful. "You're asking me to leave everything and everyone behind because you found the place you belong to? You're asking me to just say 'f*ck it!' and leave my family and education behind for something that might not even be real?" Their faces dropped. "Of course I'll come! I thought you'd never ask!" Linde and Noa sighed relieved and they attacked Femke and me with a hug. Thranduil stood up. "Alright that's sorted then! We'll leave this Saturday." He coolly said. Today was Tuesday (considering it was 24:12) so we had less than a week before leaving New York and planet earth forever. I offered Thranduil and Legolas two sleeping mats and sleeping bags so they could sleep comfortably but they declined. "Thank you for your kind offer, Esmee but elves don't sleep very often." Thranduil explained. "But Noa and Linde sleep to." I said confused. "That's because they are in a human form and not their own elven appearance." He replied. I just nodded. Femke, Noa, Linde and I went to bed because we still had to go to school.
