Chapter 38

Dreaming and Waking part 4

Nori nods. "Nothing.. Nothing I do when it comes to our mates is fake.. I learned my lesson long ago that it only cause more pain.. I may run and hide.. and ..."

Kili laughs and real laugh but a sad one. "You sound like Du.. Nori.. Can we just.."

Nori looks into Kili's eyes, hiding nothing. "I love you. I mean it.. I have always meant it.."

Kili kisses her closing her eyes and letting go, trusting that Nori is still Nori.. even though they have had their wires cross for a few years. Nori sighs kissing back contented at peace. "Umm ya really need ta put a door up Nori.."

Nori and Kili both freeze and Nori flips Kili under her and then turns to face who ever spoke and sighs in relief. "Bofur, you scared us both, don't do that."

Bofur moves the cup from his mouth, that had made his voice sound odd, and frowns. "Sorry about that.. but I was a bit worried with what I was feelin from you both. Are ya alright or do ya need me ta stay.. You missed tea.. and it's almost supper."

Nori starts to moves Kili hold her head in back and whispers. "I'm hard and I don't need him to see me like this.. I know he my intended but.."

Nori face show shock for a moment and then saddens but doesn't show it to Kili and only purrs. "I see.. Well, it's your call kitten."

Kili blushes and look at Bofur over Nori shoulder. "Umm Bofur.. are you.. really.. I mean you don't mind..."

Bofur beams at them. "Oh sure.. I'll stay.. just let me get us all some supper.. and a curtin.. yes a curtin.."

Bofur leaves and Nori can't help but laugh Kili sigh and relaxes. "That's our Bofur.."

Kili smiles softly. "Aye.. but.. he not going to watch.. is he.."

Nori sober and smiles softly moving Kili's ever present flyaway bangs from her eyes. "Not if you don't want him to.. He has always known about us.. .. He probably just over the moon to find us.. comforting each other and not in a puddle of our own blood.."

Kili rest her head back against Nori. "He fears for us.. That we may kill ourselves.. or each other..?"

Nori scoff. "Ourselves.. He knows that we would never hurt each other..."

Kili smiles. "Your right.. But I don't want his fears to be.."

Nori sighs her head turning and kissing Kili softly and whisper against her lips. "Neither do I kitten.. Neither do I.. now about your problem.."

Kili blushes as Nori fingers shyly touches her. "What about it..?"

Nori smiles lovingly, thankful that Kili's starting the feel herself a bit more. "Shall I.. take care of it for you or.. shall we take care of it together..."

Kili whimpers and bares her neck without a though. "Together.. I need you.."

Ten minute later Bofur turns to go back down the hallway leading to Nori room, with a few thick curtains draped over his shoulder and a large tray of food in one hand and large pitcher of water with cups in the other. "Oh.. Nori please.. ahh ahhh.. no don't stop.. ahh yes my sweet sweet dove.. ahh ahh."

Bofur blinks. "Humm I can't feel them.. That means the others can't.. I guess that answers something.. but not all."

"Ohh Ohh kitten he's coming ahh .. I need to stop.. ohh yes.. ahh Kili .."

Bofur blushes as he nears the room. "Can.. Can he.. ohh.. Nori Nori please.. please.. ahh.. I need you ..."

Bofur swallow fighting tears. "I'll be right here kitten.. I won't let anyone hurt either of you.. .. your safe..."

Kili blushes and smiles. Nori kisses her tears away they continue to slowly move as one. Nori whisper softly. "He.. He a dwarrow and dragon of his word.. ahhh through hahaa and through.. Ohh Kili.. yes.. yes Kili.. .. yes my sweet kitten.. Eru, I love you Kili.."

They release softly as one. Nori continues to move, kissing Kili slow and soft, loving that Kili was still clinging to her and did not want their bodies to part. It was proof to Nori and a great comfort and relief that nothing in their bond had changed.. Now.. all she need to do was make sure that Kili always knew she loved her without a shred of doubt, and would encourage the rest of their mates to do the same. "As sweet as it is Kili.. you've gone soft.. I can still hold you but.."

Kili smiles sheepishly and Nori cracks up kissing her deeply and gets off and lays down by her holding her close. "You were trying to get us stuck.. your to cute kitten.. but that hurts.."

Kitten frowns. "Sorry.. I.."

Nori smirks and kisses her still laughing.. and then soft and slow and rest her head against Kili's. "Oh kitten.. you didn't know.. and your fine.. and I mean fine.."

Kili laughs and sighs covering them up. "Bofur.. it's safe.."

Bofur walks in with an odd look. "Of course it's safe I made sure it was.. Oh.. Oh right.. I understand.. your bit shy still aren't you kitten.."

Kili blushes and nods as Bofur sits the tray and the pitcher on the tea table and the sets of the edge of the dragon size bed sorting the curtains. "I'll have these up in just a bit. No need ta fret.. But I hate ta tell you, but your both going to need a bath again after ya eat.."

Kili smiles brokenly. "The mim zes.. Right.. Bofur.. can you."

Bofur stands hanging the curtains. "Don't fret Kitten.. I know to keep it quiet.. I know more than both of you think.. But I'm working on them.. Don't give up Kitten.. Nori and I are here fer ya.."

Kili relax and smile. "Thank you for sharing..."

Bofur scoff and smiles glaring playfully at them both. "Sharing.. Sharing.. It's not sharing.. were mates.. We love each other.. anything else would be wrong, and I'm not the type to withhold and tease.."

Nori scoffs and Bofur blushes brightly. "I meant.. Nori are you baitin me."

Nori smirks. "You know it lover mine." and then giggles. Kili smiles feeling safe and then pout and furrow her forehead as her stomach growls. "How long has it been since I ate anything.. I hope you brought and have plenty.. I feel like a hobbit in the middle of the Greenwood ten years ago without a map."

Bofur pales and Nori nods. "That's hungry.. Bofur I'll fix our plates you check to store."

Dwalin nods to Bafur and Valin as he brings Ibun, still in his counsel robes down to the dungeon. Valin's eyes wide and he shakes his head. "Both brothers cousin."

Dwalin nods. "Aye, and apparently they owe little prince Adanedhel a life debt.."

Bafur smirks. "Oh, that they do.. Valin and I can take him while you go and get whoever is need to question them both."

Dwalin smile and nods. "Thanks, both of you are doing well.. I will be back in a bit. We keep them separate until after."

Both Valin and Bafur sober and nod, each taking one of Ibun's arms. Ibun begins to tremble seeing who they are. "Lord Dwalin please I beg you not to let them take me.."

Dwalin chuckles. "Be nice lads, whatever he's talking about leave be for now."

Bafur and Valin share a long look and Valin glares at Ibun and nods. "Fine cousin, but he will be dealt with but I will speak with Gimli's runt first.."

Ibun loses most of his fear for indignation at that and knees Valin. "You will not speak of my lord Adanedhel as if you knew his person, sire or no."

Bafur gives Valin a 'you should have known look' and cracks up. "Vali, ya heard them both.. Best behavior fer now, my friend."

Valin start to get the color back to his face glaring at Ibun. "I will be, if he turns full, his head is mine."

Ibun at this continues to shown his indignation but remember that both of the lords that are his guard are two of the most fell warriors he has ever known among dwarrowkind, and one a dragon and keeps silent as they lock him in a cell in clear view of his nadith but no where near each other. Ibun sees the Khim has caught sight of him and they both call out to each other looking through the bar. Valin was about give them both and ear full when Bafur lead him away. "Come on Vali have a heart, even if they are traitors.."

Valin smiles returns and he pins Bafur to the wall out of sight. "Give me a reason why.. I have one, but should show it to either of them."

Bafur shrugs his face almost blank. "Are you hurting."

Valin frowns and nods and then gasps softly as Bafur looks away and starts rubbing his testies through his pants. "Baf..?"

Bafur smirks. "I am not about to let my third be in pain, because his snarky month got him hurt again."

Valin closes his eyes as he feel Bafur healing him not only rubbing him, but doesn't stop once he's heal. "Bafur.. you... ahh.."

Bafur feels tears sting his eyes as he pulls his hand away. "There.. Better now... ahh.."

Valin presses himself against Bafur kissing his neck. "Yes, Thanks, even better then before.. All the more reason.."

Bafur scoff. "Oh.. you knew he would and hoped."

Valin was about to take it farther but hears booted feet and pulls away giving Bafur a sweet smile that meant no good. "I will repay your kindness later Bafurin.. but now to our duty."

Valin and Bafur both straighten themselves, Valin smiling and relaxed. Bafur face it usual beaming mask, but his eyes broken but resolute, as Dwalin, Thorin, Helm, Frerin, Dis and Thrain walk past. Dwalin sees the crack in Bafur mask but says nothing, but plans to speak with him later. Dis sees the change in Valin, but hopes it has nothing to do with Bafur. The Thorin's and Thrain are oblivious but Frerin stops and waves the other on. "Valin, go with the others cousin. I would rather stay out of this since your here. I trusted them both."

Valin nods and follow reluctantly but follows none the less. Bafur smirks and bows his head. "If ya rather not be here my prince...huhh."

Frerin leans nose to nose with Bafur and take a deep breath and then pulls back glaring in the direction the others when in and says quiet, with a nearly cruel tone, quite unlike him. "If any of them are fool enough to use you in the manner that they did in the first and second age.. I care not if they are my blood kin now. I will slay them without blinking Bafurin.. You were meant to be their mate, not their lover and most assuredly not their whore.. Do I make myself clear, my young lord."

Bafur eyes widen as Frerin looks back his eyes flicker through the color of precious metals and costly wood. Bafur bows on one knee looking up almost fearful. "Ye Yes, Lord Curumo.. as ya will it.. I did not mean."

Frerin's feature soften but his eyes continue to flicker but less rapidly, more calmly, but deeply sad as he crouches down cupping one of Bafur cheeks in one hand and stroking the other with the back of his other hand. "And I did not mean to frighten you mellon mir.. Please, I only desire that no harm come to you again. You are my lord Aulendil's kin, and you are faithful to Eru. You are undeserving of such treatment, if they will not love you and mate you. Eru will provide other mates for you of our fellows in your line of matehood that will. Now tell me.. has he hurt you."

Bafur sniff and buries has face in Frerin shoulder letting him hold and comfort him. "No.. No.. not in a long time.. it's been years.. they.. they had taken me as their lover again, and then.. all at once when it was at is worst.. It stopped.. I.. I do not what I did wrong.. or right.. or what happened, but it hurts.. I feel truly unwanted. I'm ashamed ta say it, but I am desperate for them ta show me any kind of affection.. I.."

Frerin eyes settle and he blinks. "I will seek to know who all your nearest mates are and do what I can.."

Bafur nods and then as he pulls away and Frerin helps him to stand he sees no trace of Curunir Curumo, the younger form of Saruman, only Frerin but sees that Frerin is Curumo not yet wakened. "Thank you my lord prince, I will tell you if it begin again."

Frerin nods trying to piece everything that they had just spoke about together without looking confused and nod. "Do just that cousin.. Do you feel well enough to join us for the remainder of the question or shall I relieve you.."

Bafur smiles a true smile and waves his hands. "No.. No, my lord.. I'm far tougher than I look. If yer ready I will go with ya, unless ya want me ta stay here."

Frerin smirk and scoff a pats his shoulder. "That makes two of us, come your eye will be needed with the second that came."

They head into the dungeon proper and then farther in and see that they were a bit too late for the questioning of either traitor and Thrain, Thorin, Dis and Valin were headed back. Frerin gives them and odd look. "That was rather fast."

Thorin smirks. "And the two of you were rather slow in coming.. Both were more than ready to talk.."

Frerin looks at him expectantly. "Well, why were they so willing?"

Dis chuckles and rubs his cheek before pinching it. "Because Ibun's loyalty lies with Turin and my .. our little Beleg. We offered them a deal as intel gathers under the watchful eye of Valin and if needed Varlin, their former lords and kings, and they begged us to allow them to wed and be witness, and it's done, one issue. They have no living kin to act as guards and we do not yet trust to return to their quarters in the hall of lords, so they will be having their week here with guards as their honour guards, as we give it a month to see if all that they gave us is valid."

Frerin rolls his eyes and laughs. "I should have know Ibun would only turn for his beloved nadith.. Beloved indeed. So.. which is the female, are they both passed baring age."

Thorin raises a brow. "They are single gendered.. Ibun is the female."

Frerin choke and every one but Thrain laughs at his shocked and stricken face until it clears. Thorin and Dis hear a shout from the other direction Bafur pulls Frerin away from the rest as Valin runs in the other direction. "It not the lord prince somethings wrong with his mates and he feels it."

Thorin feel the tightness grow and runs in the direct of the shout. "Nada, Dis stay with Frerin."

~)*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*(~

Helm glares at the writhe trying to choke her and pull her

through and portal. VasaCalahDu smiling darkly knowing as long as he has hold of her he can not be forced out and waits, knowing one of the Istari will come to save Olorin's youngerself. Thorin glares. "Mouth of Sauron.. Unhand my twin, you traitor."

VasaCalahDu gapes in confusion at the two of them his grip loosens in shock and Helm kick his arms and falls free and the portal closes. Thorin rushes to Helm who pushes him away gentle and crocks. "I'm fine Thorin.. He didn't want to kill me. He wanted to use me as bait. He called me our Elven name.. Olorin."

Thorin pushes her hands aside giving her a warning glance not the fight him over this. "Let me check those.. Here stay still."

Helm scoff. "Thorin the others are in worse shape tend to them."

Thorin looks puzzled until he sees Valin and the two traitors Ibun and Khim are all out cold and Dwalin is trying to stop himself and Valin from bleeding. "Just great, I will sight Ada.."

Helm shakes her head her voice clearer now. "No we heal them ourself this needs to stay quiet, until we have more answers.. come on."

Dwalin nods as Helm move his tunic aside and starts to heal him in the same fashion that the Eldar and the Istari do. Thorin does the same with Valin who begins to come to, and then swears as he sees Ibun and Khim. "Bafur will kill me if he sees."

And get up and checks on them both of then look at Valin odd as he tears up and shout. "Their hearts aren't beating.. someone do something.. Please."

They look up and Bafur comes at a run with the other coming to join them but wait. Bafur push Valin out of the way and glare at him. "Go get lord Ori.. Do it now Valin, or Eru help me their blood is on yer hand, and you'll get nothing from me. Ibun.. please my lad.. Khim.. blast it.. Come on.."

Frerin shakes his head and swallows. "The truth comes out in bits and pieces.. Mim, Ibun and Khim were all brothers.. Mim was the oldest and fathered them and claimed them as his.. but they were not his mim zes."

Oin and Ori come with Valin, Varlin, Bifur, Bombur and Mili following. Ori nods from Valin and Varlin to get every into the other hall. Dwalin shares a look with Ori as she goes in. Bafur whimpers looks at Ori. "My lord.. please.. Help them.. I .."

Ori nods. "Dwalin, Varlin, Valin get them all out, Bafur go.. I will call for you if it works. Oin.. leave the herbs and go and send Dwalin have Bofur.."

Oin does and nods looking at Bafur sadly as Bombur comes and picks up his sobbing cousin and Bifur takes his son and carries him out all leave and Ori swallows and takes a deep breath and whispers. "Eru, my lord if it is not against your will speak unto your child, lord Namo, and have him send them back, and give me strength to heal them when they wake."

Ori waits and just as she feel Bofur sit down brokenly beside her and place a hand on her shoulder she feels a pulse and both start gasping for air and coughing up blood. "Nadad.. help me.. you heal one I will heal the other as best as Eru allows us."

Bofur nods his face pale both of them move as one and remove their shredded and bloodied robes as quick and carefully as they can Ori grabs the bag of herb and healing supplies and places it between them as they both bring to work.

~)*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*(~

Varlin was glaring at her twin and for once had no qualms about having Bafur near her as soon as everyone was safely in the common that was the dungon's waiting area Varlin took Bafur from Bifur, who gave a cold but heated glare of warning and took him to set away from the rest. Bafur did not question it, but was only thankful that the one who had both sired, and excelled his first born and his only full blood siblings in the first age for standing up to Varlin about some of Varlin's hateful and cold hearted ways, seem to be just as torn up about it as he was, just in a different way. Valin did not care at this point that his beloved twin was ready to kill him. They were traitors to their lords, and they had not only dealt with Sauron and Dulucien (Sauron's favored mouth over VasaCalahDu) but with those inleage with the remnant of the followers of Morgoth and Khim had as far as he could tell allowed VasaCalahDu to have his body as a vessel. Dwalin, Thorin, Helm and Frerin were all going over everything they knew and had happened up until the portal closed. Bafur who had crying himself to sleep in Varlin's arms where she held him setting in her lap whimpers in his sleep and then wakes as Bofur walks in followed by Ori carried Ibun and Khim and with all the blood and gror covering the two Bafur started sobbing again thinking that they were dead and stoic Varlin's eyes become blank and fill with angry heartbroken tears. Bofur chuckles and everyone but Ori glares at him until he lays Khim down on one of the low couches and says. "They may look worse fer wear, but their just sleepin now, we gave them somethin fer the pain. They heal up in a few weeks. And Vali.. This one is not the traitor ya thought he was."

Ori scoffs. "Their both traitor alright.. Traitors to the Dark lords.. The mouth of Sauron and Morgoth even more so. Shall I tell them or shall you, Bof?"

Bofur smirk. "As ya will it my lord. Khim was one of my long time intel contacts.. He got a little bolder than his britches so to speak, and when he came back he told me all and ask me ta let him play turn coat fer a while, I give him the go, and he ended up getting in too deep and Nori found out but though he was a real turn coat but for the fact, that he was not doing it fer gain. Ibun here was just looking out for his.."

The everyone but Ori correct him with a loud. "Her.."

Bofur smirks. "Right well.. that's most of it. They will tell ya the rest, once they rest, if they haven't already. Well, I am heading ta take a bath and fill Nori in, Ori, Dwal, see ya in bed. Nori's in the hall tonight Kili need the rest and we ordered her to stay put."

Ori and Dwalin nod, and Bofur heads out after he walks over and give Bafur's shoulder a squeeze and says. "Your former mim zes will be fine, don't mother 'em too much lad, they have some stuff comin ta them. Just be the papa that ya still are inside.. It'll be fine."

Bafur nods and squeeze his hand before he lets go. "Thank ya kindly uncle.. I didn't even know they were around and about, ya know why."

Bofur nods and heads out. "Aye, Varlin be nice ta my cousin.."

Varlin scoffs but doesn't let Bafur up at first but whispers. "Almost losing them again helped me remember.. a bit at least. I still want you bareing my mim zes Bafur.. when the time comes."

Bafur stands and walk over broken and mumbles to the peacefully sleeping but truly filthy Ibun and Khim, both who are older that Oin and Balin and kneel starting to tremble petting their faces. "The two of ya have got ta stop doing things this way.. and..." Khim blinks and groans and turns to look at Bafur and scoffs. "Lord Bofur wasn't joking.. Papa you can't talk much.."

Bafur smirks and gives him a warning glance. "I sure can.. I only have one truly loyalty and that is ta Eru, all others get sorted after.. That's what I mean.. but.. enough fer now. Rest, I'm here.. amad's here too, not the ya'd want.."

Khim looks over her shoulder and glares. "Amad.."

Varlin nods stiffly. "Khimring, do you plan ta redeem yourself. I know Nibunari will she only ever..." Ibun groans not bothering to open her eyes and then sobs. "Khim.. I can't feel them.. Forgive me.., I couldn't let him just kill you.."

Ori sighs and moves Ibun's hand. "You birthed eggs when we were healing you.. I have them wrapped and warm in a clean and far nicer cell, your dragonets will be fine. Thorin, Dwalin it all of your call but I say have Bafur be in charge of these two but they need to bath and rest, but until they are healed enough, that after a few days rest they will be able to tend each other.. wounds included. I need a bath myself.. Dwalin, no working late, we have Norbri, Fela and Frodo to look after tonight after they come back from visiting Kili and Nori down in our halls."

Dwalin nods and looks at his own state. "I am with you on all of it mim Ze. Go on, I will see you once all this is sorted."

Ori nods and head out. Oin notice Dwalin whince as rolls his shoulder. "Let me look at that lad."

Dwain glares. "Poke at your son first he was worst off then me. It's just stiff and tight from being healed so fast."

Helm huffs. "It's not as if I have had much practice but in war, and those that are minute from bleeding ta death on the battlefield.."

Dwalin chuckles at the look on Oin's face and Helm orneriness and Valin looking for a way to get away far his nada's path. Khim rolls over with a groan and kisses Ibun's head. "Go back ta sleep, love.. Papa well keep us safe, and hopefully out of trouble."

Khim's leaf and mint hazel are met with Ibun's silver sky blues both relieved to be able to see life in each other's eyes when not but 20 minute ago they were looking at each other at the gate to the halls of waiting. "I think we will listen to our lords that serve Eru this time and not our guts. Papa does.. That why he stay out of trouble.. Listen to me next time Nadith?"

Khim smiles and nods. "Aye if there is a next time.."

Ibun scoff in the same way Varlin does. "And amad will stop brooding and uncle will stop snarking.. Ha.. feed me a new one."

Varlin smirks and laughs as Valin all but runs from their nada calling behind him. "No.. No.. nada the prince healed me, truly I'm fine.. all is well."

Khim shrugs as Bafur just drinks everything in still petting Khim and Ibun hair in a fatherly almost motherly way. "I can hope."

Thrain nods for his four to come close and hugs them all and then Helm who all look at him odd until he speaking in a voice choked with tears. "I am thankful that each of you are well. Now.. Helm.. Go and tell Thran.."

Helm frowns and crosses her arms. "Forget it, send Thorin.." Frerin waits fight a smirk as Dis looks away and whistles. Thrain gives Helm a look that mean 'your rump is not to big for the rod young dwarrow'. "Thorin Stonehelm child of Dain, you will go, and let King Thranduil, your sire tend to your wounds and you will tell him that I seek his counsel on the matters at hand, or will you refuse you king and sire's command?"

Helm pouts and looks to Thorin for up who only give her an 'I told you so' look and then Frerin who says. "Do as Nada says, unless you truly want everyone present to remember your age."

Helm huffs and looks down still pale for the attack. "Yes, nada. Yes, Nadad.. but can Thorin come with me?"

Thorin smirk and looks at Thrain. "Nada it would be wise, my twin may not do it other wise."

Thrain nods. "Go on.. But I still expect you in counsel tomorrow when called Thorin. Helm if your ada says rest you will rest, or I will send a raven to Dain."

Helm pout and starts brooding but nods as Thorin leads her out to find the nearest of the portal to the Greenwood halls.

~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~}*{~

Thranduil had had a long day to say the least, being king of the woodland realm without enough lords to make up a counsel meant he, Tauriel and Gimli (Legolas helps both on the Durin counsel and in his father's realm when needed.) were the ones to sort his kingdom problems, thankfully they weren't many but still he or one of his heirs or their mate under Noldor and Sindarin laws needed to yea or nay any weighty matter that when there was no other proved lord to so. Also he, Maedhros and Maglor had split up the teaching of the elfling and elfling dwarrows that were to be the heirs of the Noldor once more, and althought his grandchildren were all wonderful pupils they all asks questions the he only had answers to half the time, so here he was after a long day of court work and lesson and training for Beleg, Tuor and Turin, sitting at his desk doing research on a question from Turin and Beleg on how the Petty Dwarves of the First and second age became petty dwarves in the first place, and was finding little to nothing in the histories. Thranduil looks up at a knock at his study door that leads to the royal common. "Come in but make it quick please.."

Thorin opens the door and then picks a now sweating and whimpering Helm back up. "Forgive me Ada, but I doubt this can be dealt with quickly, Helm look at me, my nadith.. don't you dare given."

Thranduil gets up and meet Thorin half way and takes Helm from him looking at the wounds on her neck and then glares at them. "Thorin, tell me what happened."

Thorin pales as Thranduil lays Helm down and Helm start to gasp. "But Ada..?"

Thranduil growls. "Just tell me who injured your sister in this way.. Now Thorin, I can not treat her or know how I can treat her other wise."

Thorin swallows. "The month of Sauron.."

Thranduil nods. "I thought this was a morgul wound. I need athelas in great amounts and send word to Elrond and Elros, I need one if not both of them"

Thorin swallow hard and nods running. Thranduil swallow back tears as he pulls not pieces of morgul metal out of each of the six wounds at the base of Helm's throat but broken dragon crawls, those of the size of a dragon's lords. Thranduil glares at them in horror knowing that there were only a few that had such poison under their crawls and they were all kin to Melkor, Manwe and Aule. "The traitor has surfaced.. this does not bode well." 'Legolas.. Thorin..the younger Thorin is wounded gravely.. Go to your nada..'

'He is not my nada.. Though I would gladly call him so.. I am in the mountain what shall I relay..'

'The wounds are morgul wounds.. the poison was potent and straight from the source. We need one or both of the healing lords here within the hour younger or older will do, just do all you can. Helm is strong but if there is anything not of Eru in her heart and mind she will succumb quickly.'

'I told him Ada.. all will be done'

Thranduil was almost shocked when Tuor and Turin got on the bed and to hold Helm now whimpering and writhing down and Beleg got on the bed looked and the wounds himself and then glared. "Glau would be spitting ice.. Turin, go get Curufinwe, have him sight Kili.. Never mind I will sight Kili. Sulimir will be needed."

Thranduil eyes widen. "Sulimir.. No it.."

Curufinwe and Maglor came in the door. "Kili will be here as soon as Nori can get her here.. blast I may need to use the blasted blade."

Curufinwe rolls his eyes. "Your not pure enough yet nana.. Thran please move and get things ordered. Beleg help Tauriel, Turin and Kana ready the athelas. Every one but Thranduil moved out of the way." Curufinwe ignored him and place his little hand on the wounds drawing out the poison with his healing flame. "Thran.. hold her.. keep her still or Helm will hurt herself.. do it now."

Thranduil finally complied but thankful and grief filled tears will falling slowly to his cheek and Helm whimpers and growls crawling at the covers, clearly in pain. Curufinwe was sweating and panting and nearly faint by the time they had the athelas ready and Kili, nor Elrond or Elros had made it yet. Helm growls out. "Dragon.. Ice drake.. Ai.. Ainu traitor.. "
