Legolas walked down the corridor towards Jaren's rooms. He could hear the older prince talking to himself, but couldn't quite make out the words. It sounded like, crazy.stupid.revenge. Or something along those lines.
Legolas found that the door was slightly ajar, so went over to it.
"'Ren? I'm coming in." He said. He opened the door much to Jaren's horror.
"Legolas no!" He yelled. He dove over Legolas, but to no avail. Within seconds, both of the princes were covered in a sticky mess.
"Oh why did they have to use sap?" Whined Jaren. "Now were going to be stuck like this. When the sap dries, it will be nearly impossible for us to extricate ourselves from it. Dang."
Legolas just looked at his brother, then himself, before bursting into tears.
"I.I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. I don't want to be stuck for e.ever." He hiccupped.
Jaren looked immediately contrite. "Shh, Legolas it's okay. The sap was only meant for me. It isn't your fault. We won't be stuck forever. Please don't cry." He begged.
Legolas didn't look convinced, but he stopped crying.
At the dining hall, Thranduil waited for his son's to appear. It wasn't like Jaren not to show up, and Legolas was never late for supper. Especially when there were guests.
Finally he got tired of waiting, and sent a servant to locate the princes.
The servant returned, trying hard not to laugh. "My.my lord, it seems that the princes are.um.shall we say, in an interesting predicament." The servant looked over at the twins. He remembered their visits in the past, and knew well the trouble both families got into. "They are.um.very.ah.indisposed at the moment. One might go so far as to say that they are stuck in an unusual arrangement. I believe your pranks never got far enough to achieve this my lords."
This time the servant addresses both Thranduil and Elrond. He could remember well being one of the victims of their pranks.
At this both Elrond and Thranduil's tip of their ears burned bright red, as they remembered their numerous pranks.
They royal party's finally reached the scene. And what a sight to behold. Jaren held Legolas in his lap, and Legolas was softly crying. Both princes were stuck as the sap had hardened rather efficiently.
All in all, it would have made many laugh, if the youngest prince wasn't balling his eyes out at the moment.
The twins looked guiltily at each other. They hadn't meant for Legolas to get trapped too.
Elrond surveyed the mess, and turned on his children. "This was a very unwise move. The sap will take days to remove, even then it might still linger. Couldn't you have used honey?"
When Legolas heard that he might be stuck, there for days he began crying anew, which made everyone rush to comfort him.
Ianna got there first, and held his lithe body in her hands. What she could reach of it of course. "It's okay, my little Greenleaf. We'll get you out. By bedtime, you will be sap free. I'll even let you sleep with me, if only for this one night. How about that? Does that sound okay?"
Legolas slightly nodded his head, which was all he could do anyway.
"Good." Ianna turned to all the guards, and everyone else who had come to see what had happened. "I want warm water and many rags. We're going to get one prince unstuck. I have a feeling that the other deserved it though, so his turn can wait until morning."
She was so stern that even the royal family did as she commanded. Jaren looked at her mournfully, but she added to him.
I know what you did to them. Don't try to act innocent. Besides, one night stuck like this won't do you any harm at all. She then spent the rest of her time rubbing clothes that had been dunked in warm soapy water, and slowly cleaning Legolas off.
Finally, he was completely clean, or almost anyway. Kriss took him to bathe, while Ianna lectured the twins and Jaren about not extending their pranks too far, such as this one had done, ad leaving poor Legolas out of their scheming. Elrohir burned with the most shame, since he was trying to impress her, and vowed to do as she said.
The next day proved to be little better that the previous day. Jaren was removed form his sap, and cleaned up. He had vowed his revenge on the twins. (Though not where Ianna could here him.)
Ianna, Legolas and Elrohir were to be found strolling through the forest, each carrying their weapons, as the forest was dangerous, even this close to the palace; and Jaren and Elladan could be found conspiring in the garden. Kriss was with Mussassi, teaching a class of young archers. Legolas would soon join the class as he had earned his warrior's braid on the night of the party.
The elfin lords were conversing in Thranduil's study and Glorfindel was haunting the woods.
Legolas had never met the warrior of Gondolin, and so was intimidated by him when the group met up with him in the forest.
Finally Elrohir introduced them, and Legolas warmed up a bit.
"My name is Legolas, I just earned my warriors braid, and I know how to wield a knife. How Is your name pronounced?" He asked, perhaps just a little too warmly.
Glorfindel frowned, which made Legolas peep in fear and hide behind Ianna.
"My name is Glorfindel."
"Gorlfindell?" said Legolas.
"No,Glorfindel."
"Gorlfindel?" Legolas said.
"No it's Glorfindel." The warrior said.
Legolas finally came up with an answer to his obvious problem. "Glorfy." He stated proudly.
"No. It's Glorfindel!" said the elf lord. "Never call me Glorfy." He shuddered as he said that name. The twins had lovingly dubbed him Glorfy at Imaldris and he just couldn't take it anymore.
Elrohir looked between the irate warrior, and the confused elfling. He decided to take matters into his own hands.
"Ah, but Glorfy has such a nice ring to it. It suits you." He taunted.
Glorfindel looked as if he was about to explode, but Ianna stepped in.
"It's really kind of you to let little Greenleaf call you Glorfy. He has a habit of shortening long names. It's really so kind of you." She kissed him on the cheek before he could reply, and walked away, towing Legolas and Elrohir behind her.
Elrohir snickered, uncontrollably.
The trio headed off back to the palace, unaware of what awaited them once they returned.
