"Troll!"
The twins and Legolas exchanged worried looks, listening carefully as the sound faded into the distance.
"I think it's heading away from us," Elrohir's brow furrowed as he listened carefully.
"I think you're right, mellon nin." Legolas sighed in relief, and settled against a nearby tree. "I'll take first watch, you two get some rest."
The twins nodded in agreement, and leaning comfortably against each other, they dozed off quickly, identical grey eyes half-lidded in sleep.
Legolas smiled at their sleeping forms, before turning his head toward Aragorn, who still rested comfortably, his bandaged leg propped up on his pack, Posie was curled up against his side, in the crook of his arm. 'Someday, he will make a wonderful father,' Legolas thought absently, as he picked up some arrows damaged in the day's battle and began to repair them.
A few hours later, he awoke Elladan, who took up the second watch, then a few hours before dawn, Elrohir took the final watch.
It had been an uneventful night, the troll had rumbled in the distance occasionally, but nothing dangerous had come their way.
So Elrohir relaxed comfortably on a tree branch, and surveyed their surroundings silently. Aragorn snuffled in his sleep once or twice, and Posie nestled herself closer to the human. Other than that, nothing happened.
It had been a long couple of days, and even with a few hours of sleep under his belt, Elrohir was still quite tired.
No matter how he tried to stay awake, he kept drifting off.
Several times his head lowered to his chest, only to be jerked back up again. The fourth time, it stayed down.
So the group slept peacefully in the early morning hours.
When the horizon was turning lavendar in the distance, all five were yanked out of their rest by a fearsome roar.
Elrohir snapped his head around to see the troll leering at him. They were eye to eye, thanks to Elrohir's perch in the tree.
Reaching for his sword, he mentally cursed when he realized that it was lying on the ground, where Elladan had been polishing it for him. So he pulled out his long knives, and leapt onto the troll's head.
The creature roared in rage, awakening Posie from her sleep. The tiny hobbit shrieked in fear, and clung to Aragorn, who dragged himself and the hobbit into a handy bush.
As the troll roared, Elrohir braced his foot and knee between it's jaws, and reached one arm in it's mouth, trying desperately to stab something important.
Warm blood covered his arm and leg, while the troll roared in fury. Below them, Legolas shouted for Elrohir to move, distracting the elf for one precious instant.
An instant the troll took advantage of, he grabbed the leg braced in his mouth, and swung the elf through the air. The knife, however, remained lodged in the roof of his mouth.
In fury, he flung the elf aside like a child would an unwanted toy.
Legolas and Elladan took no time to ascertain Elrohir's condition. Standing shoulder to shoulder, they fired arrows one after the other at the troll. In the end, it was a combination of Legolas incredible marksmanship, and blind luck that saved them.
The troll was preoccupied with the knife still stuck in his mouth, and ignored the arrows that bounced off his thick hide. Legolas fired one directly into the creatures eye, and it roared in pain. At that instant, Elladan fired an arrow aimed for it's other eye, but missed.
Instead, the arrow flew into the troll's mouth, apparently hitting something vital, for the creature swayed, and groaned, then slumped forward, landing with an earth-shaking thud.
"Elrohir!" Elladan flung aside his bow and ran to his twin's side.
Elrohir lay as he had fallen, face down, with one arm twisted at an odd angle beneath him. His leg was clearly broken, but that was not what concerned Elladan the most.
It was the rapidly growing puddle of blood under the younger twin that frightened him.
Carefully, he rolled his brother over, murmuring to him frantically in the Grey Tongue.
The arm that was twisted beneath him had his other dagger clutched tightly in it, and the blade was buried to the hilt in Elrohir's stomach.
