Legolas and the two Dwarflings were running around happily through the halls of Mirkwood. Eventually they became tired of running around and ended up sitting in the middle of one of the halls near the kitchen. There was a faint scent of fresh cakes wafting under the little ones noses.
''What smells so yummy?'' Fili said.
Legolas pointed down the corridor with one of his tiny fingers ''Kitchen down there.''
The two Dwarfling's look at each other excitedly ''Could we go there?'' Kili asked, his big brown eyes widening.
Legolas looked at the two curiously before his little face broke into a big smile and he nodded eagerly ''Okay.''
The little Elfling led the Dwarfling's down the corridor so that they were by the slightly open kitchen door. Inside there was Elves rushing around making various foods of all kinds.
Fili slipped in through the slightly opened door, then Kili followed and then Legolas. Fili ushered the younger too around so that they were near where the cakes were sitting enticing them in. Fili looked down at his younger brother and Legolas before looking up at the counter where the yummy cakes were sitting.
Fili then came up with a plan, he took one of the spare aprons of the side, while managing to avoid an Elf maid that was rushing around. He gave the Apron to Legolas and told him to hold out the apron. Legolas put down his beloved Aras and opened out the apron as wide as he could with his little arms. Once Legolas had done his job Fili then looked to his little brother and they gave each other a cheeky smile before Fili gave Kili a boost so that he was on level with the cakes.
Kili then began to sneakily throw cakes down into the open Apron Legolas was holding. After there were about a dozen fairly large cakes in the apron. Kili jumped down from his brother's boost and the two Dwarfling's began to help Legolas fold the cakes up into the apron. After the task was completed, Fili took the cargo and Legolas quickly picked Aras up into his arms again before they quickly ran off into the direction of Legolas' nursery.
Thranduil and Thorin had managed to have a somewhat civilized conversation but they had decided it was about time to check up on the little ones to make sure they hadn't got up to too much mischief. Thranduil' s first guess as to where they would be, was Legolas' nursery.
Upon arriving at the nusery and stepping inside, it seems Thranduil was right as Legolas' elk teddy, Aras was on the floor but with no sight of Legolas which was strange as Aras was usually always near Legolas' side. Strolling further into the nursery, closely followed by Thorin, it appeared the little ones were here after all.
When Thranduil stood perfectly still, Thorin soon came to stand next to him to see what he was looking at. As both of them looked down at the nursery floor they took in an adorable sight.
Fili, Kili and Legolas were all curled up together on one of the rugs, sleeping peacefully and looking around at the surrounding floor and at the little ones themselves it soon became clear that they went on a little adventure to the kitchen.
Around the little huddle of toddlers was cake crumbs everywhere and on the faces of the little ones, they had bits of icing around there mouths with the occasional few crumbs that have managed to get stuck too.
Thranduil couldn't help but chuckle at the sight ''It appears our races can get along after all.''
