AU Elrond is growing upin Lindon and Thranduil, son of Oropher who was the King of Greenwood, is sent to stay there for a while. Gil-Galad tells Glorfindel and Erestor that are to take care of them. Exactly how hard will their job be?Ages: Elrond: 134 Thranduil: 74 Glorfindel: 4254 Erestor: 5243 Oropher: 4192 Elros:253 Note: People who have read Three Elflings may see a similarity with Elrond and Thranduil's behavior here and there. I guess this can count as a prequel, but their ages won't make sense between these two fics In here, Elves mature at 2000

Glorfindel let out a sigh. Erestor had passed. He got up and started to walk back to Gil-Galad's palace. As

he walked through the forest, he swore he could have heard someone following him. Oh crap, he thought,

it's Erestor. Stay calm, after all, what could he do? I have the power. Yes...I HAVE THE POWER!!!

"Glorfindel, are you aware that you're talking to yourself?" Gil-Galad asked

"Not really...I thought that I was just thinking those things"

"And what do you mean you have the power?"

"Oh...nothing"

"Have you seen Erestor?"

"No...why would I see Erestor? That's none of my business. That's his own"

"Ok...Anyways, make sure that you teach Thranduil to swordfight better before Oropher shoes up"

"Right...I will

"Good" Gil-Galad walked back to his palace and Glorfindel let out a sigh. He let that sigh out too early.

Erestor stepped into the clearing as soon as Gil-Galad could no longer be seen.

"I mush say, it was a very well-built trap."

"What trap?"

"Don't play stupid"

"You said I was always stupid"

"I said you were always stupid, but only sometimes retarded"

"That's not nice..."

"Do you think it is nice to rigg a sword in front of someone's door, so when they come out, it comes flying

at them."

"Whoever did that must be real smart"

"It was you!"

"No"

"Yes"

"You can't prove anything"

"Ha! So it WAS you. At first, I thought it was Elrond and Thranduil. But it's YOU!"

"It was Elrond and Thranduil"

"How do you know?"

"I heard them last night!"

"You did eh?"

"Yes...coughnocough"

"And where do you think they are?"

"Somewhere on the other side of the kingdom"

"Are you saying that just so I will go to the other side of the kingdom, leaving you to escape?"

"No...coughyescough"

Please review! Yes, Elrond and Thranduil will wreak havoc in the next chap
