Legolas jumped out of his bed. Elrohir had his back against the bed and was cradling Ianna in his arms. Both were still fast asleep. Legolas snickered.

Silently, so as not to wake the sleeping pair, he dressed and headed outside. The storm had abated, and Legolas headed off to the clearing.

Finally he reached the vacant camp-spot, and began searching for his diamond.

"I know that it's here somewhere. Why can't I find it?" Ha asked himself.

"Looking for this?" He heard a voice ask.

Legolas turned around and came face to face with.

"'Sassi. Boy am I glad you found it. I was starting to get worried that the orcs had taken it."

Legolas reached out his hand to take the stone from his brother. Just as his hand reached Mussassi's, Mussassi threw the stone as hard as he could, into the nearest tree.

Legolas watched, stunned as his diamond flew into the tree.

KRACK

The resounding echo was almost more than Legolas' sensitive ears could take.

"Maybe now you'll die and leave us in peace. After all, why should you be happy? You killed Naneth." Mussassi slapped Legolas across the face, and turned around and stormed out of the clearing.

Legolas walked shakenly over to his diamond. It seemed unhurt. He picked it up, and started crying when he noticed the crack. It traced all the way up the diamond, and went about halfway deep.

Legolas trudged home, and went to his room.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ianna awoke when a disgruntled Legolas crawled into her lap and started crying.

"There, there little greenleaf. What's wrong?" She asked.

Elrohir woke up, and helped her to calm Legolas down. He was the first to notice the red spot on Legolas' cheek.

"Did someone hit you?" He asked gently.

Legolas looked up at him and nodded. In response to Ianna's question, he held up his diamond for her inspection.

"Legolas who did this?" She asked.

Legolas just shook his head and looked downwards.

Elrohir lifted Legolas out of Ianna's arms and held Legolas up to eye's length.

"All we want to do is help you. Just tell us who did this, and you can be sure they will be punished."

Legolas looked at him before saying, "It's my fault."

Elrohir looked at him closely, and saw that Legolas wasn't telling the whole truth, but decided not to push it.

"Let's go down for breakfast. I'm sure that we'll all feel better after some food."

He tucked Legolas under his arm, and went off carrying him like a loaf of bread.

"Hey, put me down." Legolas squirmed.

"Oh no, this object is alive. It must want the T torture."

"What's the T torture?" Legolas asked,

"This." Elrohir placed Legolas against the ground and began to tickle him mercilessly. Ianna stood nearby laughing as Elrohir tickled her little brother. Suddenly Elrohir bent down and whispered in Legolas' ear. Legolas nodded, and Elrohir let him up.

Legolas then proceeded to walk up to Ianna. Suddenly he jumped at her legs, pinning her.

Elrohir went over also, and began to tickle her as well. Suddenly Legolas switched sides, and tickled Elrohir's side.

Elrohir jumped up, and chased Legolas down the hall with Ianna following at a distance, laughing at the antics of the two.

They entered the dining hall, a disheveled mess. Legolas happily ran up to his ada and gave him a hug around the middle. When the three were settled, breakfast began.

~~~~~~~~~~

The Imaldris elves began packing for the journey home. Ianna could be found helping Elrohir pack.

Legolas showed his stone to Jaren, who told him, " Don't use this except in an emergency. It only has one use left in it."

Finally, it was time for departure.

"Well Thranduil I must admit, it's been fun. We'll have to do this in a few hundred years or so." Said Elrond.

"Yes, only next time it will be at Imaldris." Said Thranduil.

Then Ianna and Elrohir came out holding hands, and chatting happily.

Thranduil turned to Elrond. "Actually it might be sooner then that."

Elrond could only nod in agreement.

Ianna turned to Elrohir, and gave him a hug. "I'm gonna miss you." She said.

"Same here." He looked at her. Then on sudden inspiration he bent down and kissed her. She didn't pull away, and they shared a passionate kiss in front of the whole courtyard.

"Make that a whole lot sooner." Said Elrond. This time it was Thranduil who could only nod in agreement.

Legolas ran up and gave Elrohir a hug before he left. His deft fingers moved quickly, unnoticed by the two.

"Good bye 'roh. I'll miss you."

"I'll miss you too, little greenleaf. Little golden one." Elrohir had made up his own nickname for Legolas, but still used Ianna's.

Legolas grinned, then skipped off to say goodbye to Elladan.

"I did it."

"Good."

Elrohir gave Ianna another hug, and tried to climb on his horse.

Tried.

He climbed up, and felt a tug on his hair. Ianna, who had started to move away looked as well.

"Legolas." They both yelled at the top of their lungs.

Legolas peered around Jaren and Elladan, who were laughing hysterically, and grinned.

Elrond and Thranduil turned to see what the problem was. They were greeted by this. Elrohir and Ianna's dark hair had been tied together, in an unmanageable knot. They were stuck.

The kings had to snicker. Ianna's hair was almost as dark as Elrohir's making it impossible to tell them apart.

Finally, after much toil, their hair was unknotted, and the Imaldris elves began the trek home.

Ianna walked over to Jaren who was grinning like crazy. "I know that it was you who told him to do that. Jus remember that I never forget a debt." With that she left.

Jaren paled slightly and turned to look at Legolas. "We need to get those two together. Wanna help?"

Legolas grinned, "I wouldn't miss it for the world."
