Elrond put on his teddy bear pajamas and blew out the candle and drug himself to bed.

Stupid mother-in-law. Why can't she keep her mouth shut? He had excused himself

from the banquet because of that. At the dining hall, Elves were still singing songs about

that. He tripped on a misplaced robe and knocked over a chair. The crash was definitely

loud enough for Elves at the banquet to hear. Elrond was not happy. Just then,

Glorfindel and Erestor, dressed in their nightshirts, barged in with their swords.

"My lord! Where is the foul beast! Erestor and I will destroy him!"

"Are you hurt lord? Should I get the best healer in Rivendell?"

Elrond closed his eyes and counted to ten. Then...ten deep breaths.

"Number one, there is no beast in here. Number two...I AM THE BEST HEALER IN RIVENDELL." Elrond yelled. Then he added, "And why are you two in your nightshirts?"

"Well, when you left, everyone else left." Erestor stated.

"Then where is that singing coming from?" Elrond demanded.

"What singing?...Oh the singing about your history of-" Glorfindel was cut by Elrond.

"YES!!! THAT singing!!!"

"Lord, that is not coming from the dining hall, that is coming from Mirkwood." said Erestor.

"How do Thranduil's folk know of that?" Elrond snapped.

"Well, you know how Galadriel can send telephathic messeges to people..."

"Arghhh. I can't wait until she goes. When she does, I'm going to see her out of here, just the way I am now." Elrond was fuming.

"Lord...?" Glorfindel could not resist.

"WHAT!?"

"In your teddy bear pajamas?'

"GET OUT!!! GET OUT!!! GET BACK TO YOUR ROOMS NOW!!!!!!!!!"

Erestor and Glorfindel hurried out of harm's way.
