Okay I want to say something to quell my prereaders screaming. Yes I know ocaru is wrong, I didn't at first, but it worked out for the best, cause you would change the name for the perfection, which is a oru kai, or how ever you spell it. So yeah at fist it was on accident, but it worked out for the best. In short, ocaru is the imperfection of oru kai's okay? Any questions, comments, surgestions, just review or email. PLEASE R&R

Aragorn froze and didn't move. He barely breathed, and his heart began to race. Something foul smelling filled his senses. There was something more in the shadows, something that wasn't moving right at this point. Legolas shifted his weak body to get a better look at the frozen human. His head spun around with blood loss, so he was forced to remain as he was. He knew something was wrong for the human hugged him tighter, and was so rigid it made a dwarf look calm.
"Aragorn, what is it?" Legolas asks, barely audible.
As if on cue the roar of an attacking cave troll fills the cavern. Legolas starts, he didn't even sense the cumbersome creature. Aragorn takes off down the cave towards freedom, adrenaline pumping through his body pushing him beyond his normal limits.
"Aragorn, to the left!" Legolas cries out in warning.
Aragorn swerves to the left as the troll club slams into the ground, showering broken stones everywhere. Legolas groans, then rests his head on Aragorn's shoulder. Fearing he was losing Legolas, Aragorn shakes his elf luggage in his arms.
Not getting a response, and unable to stop, Aragorn scans ahead for the cave entrance. Thankfully the light of the cave entrance was coming into sight. Taking a chance, Aragorn glances back at the cave troll. It had fallen behind them, the swing it took at them probably gaining them the most lead.
"Legolas!" Aragorn calls, trying to arouse Legolas. "Legolas!"
"Hmn." Legolas responds dazedly, raising his head.
"Legolas, I need you to hang onto me, okay? I need both hands to climb up."
Legolas agrees with the flickering of his eyes. He was losing consciousness. When the safety of darkness was coming to Legolas, sharp pain tore him back. Aragorn was moving him to his back.
Sadly Legolas could not hold on, blood loss, and his injuries made it impossible. Aragorn lays Legolas on the ground, looking fearfully at the rapidly approaching cave troll. He didn't have any more options. Even though he wanted to get Legolas out with less injuries then what he had; Aragorn had no other choices to quickly bind Legolas's hands so that he could get them both out at once.
Aragorn hooks Legolas's tied hands around his neck and begins the hard climb up the rope, the cave troll lunging at them, at the last second. To a consequence that yet again gave the duo some time for freedom.
Unable to make it up any higher, Aragorn pauses a foot from freedom, his adrenaline drifting away as the sight of freedom came closer. Aragorn closes his eyes, resting them on his bloodied hands. How easy it was to give up and drop back into the cave. Let the troll tear him apart. But he couldn't. He had to get Legolas out.
"Daddy help me," Aragorn prays to his human father.
As he lifts his prayer to his father, Legolas'ss weight lifts from his back. Startled, Aragorn opens his eyes, watching in awe, and fear, as Legolas is pulled out of the hole. He doesn't move even as Legolas disappears from his sight, everything momentarily forgotten. Eventually a familiar face peers over the edge.
"Father!" Aragorn gasps.
Elrond smiles at his human child, finding the look on Aragorn's face almost comical. Bending down further, Elrond offers Aragorn his hand. Thankfully Aragorn takes it.
"Hope you don't mind your other father helping you."
"No, I don't mind," Aragorn replies happily.
As Elrond pulls up Aragorn, he is jerked to his stomach. Something was pulling on Aragorn. A scream of disbelief escapes his Aragorn's lips. The cave troll had Aragorn by a leg and was breathing loudly. Elrond found himself in a life or death game of tug of war with the cave troll.
Seconds went by like centuries in a fight Elrond knew he would lose. With one mighty tug, the troll pulls Aragorn out of Elrond hand, and almost sends Elrond falling into the cave. Only Elrond's free hand saves him grabbing the edge of the entrance.
"ESTEL!"
Aragorn felt himself being swung by the cave troll. His leg hurt, and he wished to be let free. The cave troll didn't care what happened to it's prey. Curiously it brings Aragorn to eye level. It made a noise of curiosity, as it regarded the upside down human.
*THHH WUMP*
The cave troll swings Aragorn violently, as he looks towards the creature that shot him with an arrow. It roars in anger, a few more arrows hitting it. Angrily the troll tosses the human like a tiny pebble at the first elf it saw.
Elrohir's eyes open wide and he drops his bow just in time to catch his brother in his arms, slamming back into the ground hard. All his breath escaping his lungs. Elves enclosed around him protectively. Knowing the cave troll only for a young one, they let him run away when he decided to.
"Thanks, Elrohir." Aragorn groans, pulling himself off his brother. "Elrohir?"
****
Elrond looks disdainfully around the room. Legolas is still out cold, many of his injuries severe, he lay on the bed closest to the window. Next over on an oversized bed, is Elrohir with a bandaged head, and ribs, Elladan with his leg in a cast, and sitting on the edge Aragorn, who came out with only a sprain.
"This sight is too common around this house. Do you ever think what your actions show about me as the Lord of Rivendell? I cannot even keep you four out of trouble."
"... ... No father, err lord Elrond." Elladan, Elrohir and Aragorn respond together.
Elrond sighs in defeat, there was no use in this argument, he was sure to lose. His sons giggle to themselves, encouraging Elrond to give them an angry glare. The boys meep and shut up. This always amused Elrond, they feared his wrath, but did nothing to prevent it's happening. Guess they knew in their hearts he couldn't stay mad for long.
"I'm going to send a message to King Thranduil, keep an eye on Legolas, and no more trouble, you hear me?"
"Yes, father." All three answer again together.
Elrond rolls his eyes uncharacteristically and walks away from his sons. What chance was this that he would have to raise the troublesome ones of the brood instead of the easy one?
****
Legolas awoke and slowly focuses on the world. Six curious eyes gazed down at him, nearly giving the elf a heart attack. Then as he realized it was just the twins and Aragorn, he calms down.
"How're you feeling, Legolas?" Aragorn asks.
"A little sore but I feel much better," Legolas croaks.
The twins giggle at the sound of Legolas and hand him a glass of water. Legolas takes it thirstily. Elladan hops to his bed and lands heavily on the mattress. Elrohir moves a little slower, hindered by his broken ribs. Aragorn remains next to Legolas, looking a little sheepish.
"Father is sending a message to King Thranduil," Aragorn whispers.
Legolas spits out his water, choking slightly on it. They were sending a message to his father about this. His father will be furious! He was definitely not as light hearted as Lord Elrond. Aragorn pats Legolas's back lightly, he didn't understand how Legolas's father was.
"Legolas, are you okay?"
"Are you mad!" Legolas yells at Aragorn. "My father will be furious!"
Aragorn looks startled, "But Legolas, he's your father, I'm sure he'll understand. It was an accident after all."
"And me and Elrohir will keep you protected."
"Yeah, but you can't be there forever. I can take care of my father my self. I do NOT need your help."
Seeing the distress in Legolas's eyes, Elrohir grabs Aragorn hand and pulls him towards him. Aragorn turns and faces his elven brother.
"Aragorn, we're hungry why don't you go fetch us something to eat."
"B..."
"Or we'll kick your ass, Aragorn." Elladan finishes.
Aragorn catches the look in the twins' eyes, and goes to get food. Despite all his years with elves he had a lot to learn yet. But one thing he'd never get used to was how prideful some elves were, and how care free others were.

Okay side note, it's been documented in extreme times of heightened adrenaline people can lift small cars. And the innocence siblings together, a trick I learned was successful to get out of trouble with parents. Don't ask.
