Song For None

Elladan and Legolas were just starting to calm down after the fit of laughs they went into when Elrond walked in.
"It is getting late, I want you all to quiet down and get some rest. Especially you Nuquer." Elrond looked at her and walked out.
"Where are we all suppose to sleep?" Elladan looked around the room to see there was only one bed.
"How about girls on the bed and guys wherever they can find?" Nuquer smiled and lay down.
"Oh, yea figures." Legolas spotted and very comfortable looking chair and was slowly inching for it. Unfortunately Elladan had spotted the same chair and was also inching towards it.
Legolas noticed Elladan heading the same direction he was going and leaped toward the chair. Once again, Elladan had gotten the same notion and leaped toward the chair at the same time.
The two elfes crashed into each other and started trying to kick each other out of the chair.
The girls were watching with amusement from their comfy perches on the bed and Elrohir was sitting in another very comfortable chair laughing at his idiotic brother and their idiotic friend.
Elrohir let the two try and wrestle each other out of the chair before he said anything.
"I don't know if you three ladies notices but there are three chairs just like the one those two idiots are fighting over." Elrohir smiled at the girls who had also noticed the three identical chairs.
Legolas and Elladan froze. They both looked over where Elrohir was sitting and sure enough there were three chairs just like the one they were fighting over.
"Well, I knew that. I just wanted to see how long Legolas would be stupid." Elladan said.
Legolas pushed Elladan out of the chair with his foot. He landed in an ungraceful pile on the floor.
"Yea, well. I did know. I was just testing you guys." Elladan brushed off his robe and went and sat in one of the chairs.
"I would move but I put up to good of a fight to just leave this chair now." Legolas settled himself into the chair and tried to look as though nothing had happened.
"You guys are a riot. What would we do without you?" Nuquer laughed and pulled the sheets over herself, Maik, and Ven. "Night guys. When you dream tonight hopefully it's of being more observant."
"You're just too funny, Nuquer." Elladan sat back in his chair and slowly drifted to sleep.

Elrond was sitting in his study with Vebor at his side.
"The messages I sent to Mirkwood and Lothlorien have not arrived yet. The Mirkwood message should have surely arrived by now." Elrond put his head in his hands and sighed.
"My Lord, maybe there was some minor delay. That could have very well happened for the Lothlorien messenger." Vebor put a comforting hand on Elrond's shoulder, "I'm sure we'll have word soon."
Just as Vebor said that there was yelling outside. Vebor ran to the opened window to see what it was. "Sir, there are two elfes here from Lothlorien it looks like."
"Go meet them please and bring them back up here. Try to keep it quiet." Elrond dismissed Vebor.
Vebor ran to the two blonde-headed elfes to see what was the news.
"What is the news?!" Vebor handed the two elfes horses to two other elfes standing near and started leading them to Elrond's study.
"We have news of strange men roaming to near our borders. They attacked a group of elfes traveling back from here." The taller of the two elfes said.
"How many were in the group?" Vebor feared it might have been the same group that brought the four young elfes here.
"There were six in the group. The men attacked and three elfes were killed. Two disappeared and the other one got away but is still being treated on Lothlorien." The second elf said with a rush.
"Lord Elrond wants to speak with you. He also has news to tell." Vebor lead them to Elrond's study.
