Disclaimer: *looks around carefully then grins* I own them all!! They are mine. *Cops converge, lawyers come out smirking. Alexis is taken in to custody. * Fine, fine they are not mine! I am sorry! Let me go please!!!!…. *Gets dragged out of sight. *

HI! How are you all? Fine I hope. I just finished my first day of senior year… its going to be interesting. Anyhow I hope you enjoy this chapter, though it is kind of short…. I had to go to school, so less editing time. But the last part will be good. Enjoy!!

Lita of Jupiter: I like Eru too! I felt that he was and needed to be a cool guy. Celeborn is around here somewhere…. *searches around* I'll find him for you before the end of the chapter, I think he is with Galadriel… Don't quote me though, they all have a tendency to run off. Sequel? I don't think there will be one and you will see why at the end. But maybe I'll add something to the end…. Thanks for the luck you sent. I needed it!! I hope you enjoy the story!!!

Ylanna1: Your wish is my command…. Enjoy!! *smiles *

amy-rachel: He will get there don't worry, at least I think he will. There are a few things that have to be done first…

Leggylover03: Sorry this is late, but hey I got it up for the weekend. School prevented me from posting earlier… *grins* by the way I love your poems and stories! Just wanted to say that here cuz I am always too lazy to sign in and I think I reviewed the poems and I just signed Alexis…. I digress, keep writing and enjoy this chapter!

Cammy: One day, you always have one day! And the wait for the next chapter is over… happy reading!

Alex mistress squirrel: *blushes like mad* thank you so very much! Your complement is very flattering. Don't worry, there is still this chapter and the (much longer) next chapter…

The Lady Tiger: That review was well earned! I hope you continue your story (I haven't got to read any stories yet, so if another chapter is up I apologize for nagging…) Yeah I know some things are similar. (As my English teacher told us that works of literature are often connected.) But trust me, it is going to get a little different… At least in my mind. I agree with you, Aragorn never should have died in the book. *Sighs* well I hope you like this chapter!!

"Do you know why it is that you are here?" A voice came out of the darkness. They had just reached the outer circle of the Valinor, when they had suddenly felt extreme exhaustion and had fallen asleep.

"Because gwadors-nin and mellon decided to take me with them to the Undying Lands." Estel replied quietly, Legolas stood next to Estel holding on to his friend's hand.

"Is this true firstborn?" The voice asked Legolas, who was slightly offended that this being did not believe Estel.

"Aye my Lord, it is true. Estel did not want to come at all, he fought Elladan and Elrohir, le gwadors and I." Legolas replied respectfully but there was a bit of bit in his tone.

"Why would you wish to bring a Edain into the realm of the elves? What has he done to deserve such an honor."

"He is our gwador." Two identical voices cried out. Legolas and Estel turned in surprise they had not realized that Elladan and Elrohir were there as well. The twins moved forward towards their brother and friend.

"But he is not one of the firstborn, why would you call him gwador." The voice said without any emotion.

"That is who he is!" Elladan exclaimed. He pushed his brother behind him as if to protect him from the harsh words. "He was raised by our Ada, Elrond Peredhil, he is husband to the Undomiel."

"He fought Sauron and united the majority of Middle Earth." Elrohir said quietly.

"That is no reason to allow him to enter." The voice said calmly. "For he is only one of the Atani. (Second born. Men) He is fated to die."

Estel had stayed silent the entire time, but now he spoke in a pain filled pleading voice.

"He is right Elladan, Elrohir, Legolas. I do not want to cause trouble. Please I beg you for the sake of yourselves let me go. Allow me to die." He could not risk his family over this impossible dream. One dreamed that he had only hoped to come true for all of his life.

"No!" Legolas practically screamed. "What part of this do you not understand? He is my friend! Amine mela him as a gwador!"

"Estel is our brother and met mela (we love) him. If you kill him here and now, you will have to kill us first. We will not stand here and allow you to kill him." Added both of the twins.

"You will have to kill me as well, Estel means more then anything in my life. I will not abandon him to death." Legolas said defiantly.

"Manwe cease this torment." Came a female voice. She stepped into the light and they saw Nienna, her beauty amplified by her sadness.

"You are free to enter tithen pen. You all have proven to the Valar your love for each other. My servant has vouched for le Ada's love for the edain." The elves and Estel just stood stunned; they went through all that just to prove their love for one another?

Another one of the Valar stepped forward. Varda smiled gently at the elves and the now young man, her light enveloping them making them feel safe. "Come in gladly, for the time of pain is over. But first an explanation is in order."

And with that they were allowed to enter the realm with a beauty that was beyond the words of any race….

"Elros what are you talking about." Elrond asked his twin bewildered. "My sons would not leave until Estel died. And he is not here, so they can not possibly be here."

"Elrond, gwador-nin listen to me. Your sons are on that boat with the Thranduilion." Elros noticed that he had still not gotten through to his twin, for he still did not move to greet his sons. "All three of your sons. They are all here. It seems your eldest ones and the Thranduilion decided to go against the ban to bring their youngest brother to you and his wife."

"That is not possible." Elrond said softly as he sat down on the ground filled with disbelief.

"But it is Uncle." Tindomiel said just as quietly as she stepped forward. "Manwendil and I saw them coming towards the landing beach. But the fourth passenger looks no older then twenty."

"See it can not possibly be my sons..." Elrond started to say, but Manwendil cut him off as he figured it out.

"The gift of the Numenoreans but it is not..." Manwendil began as his older sister finished.

"... Possible? It could be, why I do not know. But perhaps...." Tindomiel looked thoughtful as she joined her hand with that of her brother's.

"...For some reason it was allowed. Maybe because you adopted him Uncle. A gift from the Valar for all the pain your family has been put through." Manwendil ended, looking down at his and his sisters joined hands.

"You two knew more then you are letting on." Elrond eyed the two siblings closely.

Tindomiel nodded, "Nienna told us that the Thranduilion was going to do this that Eru, so that we could tell you..." She trailed off but they got the point, the twins were messengers or more like Tindomiel was. Then she reached out her hand to her uncle, offering him help up off the ground on which he was sitting. Elrond took her hand and she pulled him up then he in turn helped his brother up.

"You two should be going, I am sure your sons will want to see you Uncle. I am sure they want to meet their Ada's identical twin." Tindomiel said with a wink at her father. Elrond and Elros looked at one another, they both shook their heads...

"Our children are nuts." They said together, then they laughed. Elrond was filled with a joy that he had never known before....

"Our grandsons are here." Celeborn said quietly. Husband and wife were facing off. "All three of them."

"Yes, they are all here. I wonder how it is that the twins and Legolas managed to bring Estel into the Valinor." Galadriel said looking skeptically at her husband that was trying way to hard to look innocent. "I heard there were people who spoke in behalf of him being allowed to enter... I wonder who did that."

"I have no idea, just like I do not have any idea how our grandson managed to a certain book containing information about blood bonding." Celeborn looked at his wife expectantly.

"Fine, I will admit that it was I that left the book where the twins and Legolas would find it." Galadriel said complacently.

"As I spoke for the twins and Legolas' actions and on behalf of Estel. But I will tell you I was not the only one speaking for him." Celeborn said seriously. "There was another speaking on behalf of Elrond of his love and how he thinks of Estel as his youngest son."

"Our young friend?" Galadriel smiled when Celeborn nodded. "Then we are not the only ones that are to blame for helping out Legolas and our grandsons in this situation."

"It appears that we are not." Celeborn said sagely, "But we are the main conspirators other then Legolas. And we are the eldest of all the ones that helped to bring Estel here, supposedly we are suppose to know better."

"Is that what the Valar told you?" Alateriel (Galadriel) asked her husband quietly wondering why the Valar would do that.

"Yes they did Alateriel, but our friend's testament helped out my case greatly." Celeborn said as he moved next to his wife taking her hand in his.

"Why is that?" Galadriel asked sharply, giving her husband a look. "If they did not take yours so willingly?"

"Because hers was an observation from an outsider. She supposedly was not biased, like we are." Celeborn gave his wife a look; this was the reason she had gotten exiled out of the Valinor last time, because she got vexed with the Valar disobeying them in her anger. He did not want to lose his wife because of her fiery temper. Not that his was any better.

"So they believed her?" Galadriel said with a smile. "Then they are truly being allowed in?"

"Yes, my dear wife. All three of them are allowed to enter." Celeborn grinned, he began to pull his wife. "Speaking of which we had better get our daughter and tell her the last of her children have come."

"And what of your kinsmen Thranduil and his wife?" Galadriel said teasingly.

"I was going to retrieve his wife." Celeborn said quietly. He sighed and gave her a look of mock irritation, as if it was a trial to say the rest. "And I suppose I will need to get her husband as well, for it would make Legolas happy…"

Galadriel just laughed and Celeborn felt his spirits lift for her laughter was so beautiful. Finally they were going to all be together at last….

TBC…
