Ch 13 The plot thickens

Estel peeked around the corner into the bedroom. He didn't see anyone at first; then, as his eyes grew accustomed to the dark of the room, he could a lump in the bed. He thought, "Now we have at least one of them. He debated whether or not to get Elrond. He decided that Elrond needed some leisure time. After all, Elladan, at least, appeared to be sleeping. He would check the other bedrooms. He really did not trust any of them.

As he turned to go, Elladan turned in bed. Immediately, Estel's head snapped around. However, there was no more movement, so he decided to check the rest of the bedrooms. As he moved through the halls, he sensed someone was behind him. He looked back, but saw no one. He couldn't shake the feeling someone was walking behind him.

He opened the door to Legolas' room, and saw the elf in bed. He went over to make sure it really was Legolas. It was, and he, too, appeared to be sleeping. He then went to check Elrohir's room. Again, his brother appeared to be sleeping. He had the unsettling feeling that this was simple- too simple. He just knew something was going to happen. Where, or to whom, he couldn't say.

Estel reported to his father that, indeed, all three elves were sleeping. Glorfindel was there as well. Suddenly, Estel had a most evil look on his face. Glorfindel took one look, and said, "You wouldn't dare do that!" Elrond whirled around and said, "Don't even think of doing that!"

"Why Ada! Don't you trust me? I'm deeply hurt that you would even think I would do anything. At least, not without you and Glorfindel helping me!"

Glorfindel and Elrond looked at each other for a long moment. Suddenly, they started to laugh rather evilly. "Now, we must think this out and make plans so that it is done quickly, and we can escape easily," said Elrond. "Estel, keep an eye on those three. Let us know if they move."

Estel replied, "I believe I can do that. I would appreciate it, though, if I am in on this." "Why Estel, I believe it is possible for you to assist us," replied Glorfindel. With that, Estel went to watch the sleepers, and Glorfindel and Elrond started plotting, er, planning.
