"Who are you?" Asked Elrond. He looked at the guitar-girl.
"I'm Kiki," she said looking directly into his eyes, "and this" she pulled her sister to the front. "is Jenny, she's smarter than she looks." Jenny's waist length brown hair was falling out of her braid, and her brown eyes shone. "Over here we have Bobby. He's annoying, but he can really be funny." His blond hair was spiked and his brown eyes caught his rebellious nature.
"Now, where did you come from?" the lord of the house asked. He thought the eldest girl looked familiar.
"We came from muph muwwa nauegh gewun…" said Jenny interrupted at the end by her sister's hand.
"I *told* you she was smarter then she looked. Amin aaye tuulo` Arizona." Switching to the only other language she knew.
"Mani?!?" Elrond was genuinely shocked. He continued rapidly in Sindarian.
"Tampa, please, I don't know a lot, and what I do know consists mostly of curses." Just then Aragorn walked in.
"Vedui` Elessar." Said Elrond and Kiki at the same time, and looked at each other. The dark hair on each of them whispered in a slight breeze.
"Um, am I missing something?" said Aragorn "Arwen's twin from… well I don't know where she's from, and I've never seen her. Someone tell me what's going on." He was utterly bewildered.
"Me too please, I mean, I'm glad I'm here but WHAT THE F^( IS GOING ON!?!" Kiki wasn't especially amused.
"Calm down girl," Said a quivering Glorfindel (Yes he's the forgotten one, poor dude).
"Amin lava. Cormlle naa tanya tel'raa, but have you ever been *in* a book? God, I bet you haven't raised *your* siblings from the day they were born." Kiki went from killing rage to cold as ice in the snap of a finger.
"Kwentra lye i'narn." Said Elrond, still puzzling over the weird woman. At least she hadn't killed anyone, yet.
"What day is it?" She asked suddenly.
"Why, it's the twenty-sixth, why do you ask?" responded Aragorn
"Oh, well, we can wait." She said. Aragorn looked at her shrewdly.
"Why wait? We have nothing planned." He said
"Liar."
"Am not!"
"Elessar, we both know about that nice little council today, the second day Frodo is up and walking after being stabbed with a Morgul blade. I know things." She had done it like this purposely to shock the s#!+ out of him.
"…o_O…How'd you do that?!" said Jenny.
"You know me." Was all Kiki responded with.
"OK, Kiki would you honor our council with your presence and wisdom." Said the ever-diplomatic Elrond.
"Of course, but it would be nice if you could keep Bobby and Jenny entertained. Bobby is like a hurricane, he destroys everything if he isn't amused. Jenny is such a sweet heart that she can keep him under control, but not for long."
"Good of you to tell us that. Arwen will do just fine to watch the children."
"Tell her to make it quite clear that she's not trying to replace their mother, else wise it could get ugly."
A serving woman was summoned to help Kiki get ready for the council. Kiki got a bath she didn't need, perfumes she didn't want, but she drew the line at dresses. The woman, Oleander, wrestled with her hair. At one point it all stood up on end and wriggled, making Oleander's eyes pop. Doggedly the woman worked, until she got the mass of silky, crackling, static-y hair into a neat winding crown on her head. Half of it stayed up, half fell down, but it was the best *anyone* could do. She pinned it up with a blue silk rose and ironically the hated dress was blue with a cream over tone and cream slippers.
"Kiki, you look like a fairy princess!" exclaimed the young Jenny
"grumble…Sure…grumble…Dresses…grumble…more like a tent." Kiki was not pleased about wearing a dress.
"What? You look very nice." Said a musical voice. Kiki spun around to see who had spoken.
"Lady Arwen?" Kiki looked at a near mirror image of herself. Black hair, done up in the crown-y thing, a cream rose, blue on cream dress, and blue slippers.
"Yes?" replied the woman. Kiki smiled.
"These are my siblings, Bobby and Jenny. Watch this one closely." She pointed to Bobby, "Don't let them play 'cowboys and Indians' with you under any circumstance. You might end up tied to a chair."
"Anything else, oh great one?" mocked Arwen
"Well, if you want to fry, that's your problem." Kiki retorted and stormed out.
And next time the council. I do post to chappie's at once, so don't feel bad. I'm going out of town for Thanksgiving Break (American holiday) and I won't be able to get to a computer, so before I leave I'm going to give you not two but four chapters J . If you're nice and review a lot I might make four chapters a habit.
