The Fight for the Mirkwood Kingdom

Chapter 5

Kedi remained silence on the ride until they reach the castle were Thranduil says,
" Why did you not try to leave."
" Because I didn't want to cause trouble," Kedi said while not look him in the eyes.
" Interesting," he said, " Take her to her room." "Great another room," she thought, but when she entered her room the room was beautiful. She looked around in the room and found the dresses then decided that she should probably change out of her sleeping clothes and get something to eat. Meanwhile Alassie was making a plan to get Kedi out of the castle, but she was hungry and she forgot to grab food before she ran. Soon she heard moving in the trees and she saw elven guards coming her way followed by Thranduil. She stood up and got ready to ran but she was surrounded.
" There you are," said Thranduil in a gentle voice trying not to scare her, " why did you run?"
" Because I didn't want to be forced to do something I didn't want to do," said Alassie.
" What would I be forcing you to do besides come to my castle," said Thranduil
" Go to your castle and I hope you are going to keep your promise of paying for all the damage you did to my parent's house," Alassie had her voice turn slightly angry but she held her tongue from speaking too much.
" I will keep my promise," he said smiling, " Now please don't try to run and get on my horse."
" I will not run, but I would like to ride my own horse," she said smiling at him. He laughed she was different from the other girl.
" Someone give her your horse," he said to his guards. One of the guards got off his horse and Alassie got one. She saw that the horse was tense, whispered in it's ears, and it calm down.
" Okay lets go," said Thranduil putting his horse into a canter. Alassie loves going fast so when they went into a canter she was excited. So she kicked her horse gentle into a canter. Thranduil watched her pull ahead from him and the wind go through her hair and couldn't help but challenger her to a race. As they race Alassie began to forget about all that had gone on the morning and was enjoying the moment. Soon the castle was near so they slowed the horses down. They both agreed that it was a tie. Alassie dismounted and was shown to her room where she was greeted by Kedi who had changed into a long mint green, dress  that made her look beautiful.
" Wow! You look beautiful," said Alassie.
" I wish I could say the same thing to you," Kedi said laughing. Alassie laughed as well.
" Well I am going to shower, change, then eat breakfast," said Alassie.
" Okay. I am going to walk around and check out this place," said Kedi.
" Okay. I will join you when I am done," said Alassie.
