Still in 3rd person point of view:

Bells rang and Elves sang, it was a joyous autumn morning, filled with delight squealing and whistling of joy. Anya would finally get married to the love of her life, no interruptions no enemies nothing that could possibly ruin this day. Anya took a look at herself in the mirror (the dress is displayed on the side) and was finally ready for this day to come. So she would be known as Anastasia Wife of Prince Legolas of the Woodland realm.

Legolas waited for his bride along with his father beside him and his people in the audience. His smile stretched all the way to his eyes. The elves sung the song of the bride as she was about to walk down the aisle. His heart fluttered just by imagining Anya walking down the aisle and finally being his wife for an eternity. But the song was about to end and still there was no Anya in sight everyone started gossiping among themselves and Legolas' heart grew nervous by each second passing without Anya walking down the aisle.

Did she change her mind in marrying me? Legolas thought to himself, Leslyanna then run down the aisle making the elves sing faster as she ran faster towards Legolas with concern written all over his face. "I can't find Anya anywhere, she's not in her room nor was she anywhere in the palace." Leslyanna said breathless, Thranduil stood alert and commanded "We shall form a search group." Legolas then cut him off and said "No... I'll find her." without questions nor interruptions Legolas ran off as he grabbed his bow and daggers before running out of the gates of Thranduil's home.

Anya stood in front of the lake that she went with Legolas the day her memories came back. Why was she here? Not because she is hesitating on marrying Legolas but more like she wanted to see the beauty of the Greenwood before she could get married. "I knew you would be here." a voice came from behind her, she jumped in surprise and turn around to face Legolas in his royal tunic with his circlet. "I was expecting to see you in your wedding gown when you walk down the aisle but to my surprise my bride didn't show up." Legolas said softly as he looked at his lovely bride. "Oh! It is starting already-- I am so sorry-- I was lost in--" before Anya could say anything else Legolas put up a hand as he went closer to Anya closing the space between them.

"This is much better seeing my bride for the first time in the heart of Greenwood, seeing the sun reflect your beauty and the beauty of nature surround you is better." Legolas said with a smile as he kissed her hand. "Let's change the traditions, I'll be the one to walk you down the aisle." Legolas said as he held his arm out for her to hold, Anya took his arm without hesitation and said "Legolas." she then pulled him into a loving kiss. As they pulled back Anya said "I can't believe this is finally it after everything we have been through... we are finally getting married." as she embrace him. Legolas's arms around her body and he said "Our love is just the beginning Anya.. It has just begun."

Legolas walked down the aisle with his bride beside him and finally after 1000 years they got married.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*  10 years later

"Adhriel! Be careful!" Anya laughed as she watched her eldest daughter train archery with Legolas. "Don't worry naneth, Ada is the best archer in all of Middle Earth. I will be good like him one--" but she was cut off as she released the arrow from her bow aiming right at Thranduil but it was a good thing Thranduil ducked before he was hit. "Indeed you are." Thranduil said in his deep voice. "Sorry Grandfather!" Adhriel called out as her cheeks were red. Legolas laughed.

"Naneth! Naneth! Can I do what Adhriel is doing?" Oropher exclaimed, Anya and Legolas' youngest son who is a twin, he was named after Thranduil's father. "Yes Naneth, why can't we do what Adhriel is doing?" Orophin complained as he threw his wooden sword on the ground. Anya giggled and said "Go ask your father." both Oropher and Orophin stood up and started racing to their father with their red hair bouncing around. "Ada! Ada! Can we shoot an arrow?" both of them asked in unison. "Maybe tomorrow young ones it's about to get dark soon we will go back inside." Legolas said as he squat down to their level. Adhriel sighed to herself as she sat on a rock making her blonde curls bounce.

Legolas, Anya, and their kids went inside to get ready for dinner although Legolas and Anya kept lecturing Adhriel since Adhriel has a crush on their dear friend Haldir, but when the kids are asleep Anya and Legolas' day wasn't over them both would either stroll around the great greenwood or go dancing in the forest. Their adventures never stopped even though they were already settled down, Legolas spent every night making Anya fall in love with him all over again like he did when she forgot about her memories, Anya everyday never stopped falling in love with Legolas.

Because the adventures of Anya and Legolas' love wasn't at its ending but more likely their adventures have only just begun.

The End.
