How They Met
Disclaimer: See previous chapters *battles off blood thirsty lawyers*
AN: I'm so sorry that I haven't up dated sooner. I just got back from my VICA trip to State competition and it really sucked! I only really got one vote to get rid of Taraqwen; all the other's said keep her. I've even had suggestions to make Taraqwen fall in love with Glorfindel or be an "interesting friend" to him. I am considering this. My beta reader Kapies suggests that I don't make them fall in love instantly or instantly go from hate to love, I believe this is a good point because it would make Taraqwen no longer an OC but a *Shutters*... Mary Sue. I hate those things. Also this chapter maybe short...my muse is not kind at the moment.
Elrond: Kapies is your beta reader!?! you mean that freak who actually enjoys reading Harry Potter slash!?
Kapies: The one and only!
Elrond: It's bad enough I have to put up with you in that ' Florabama' story but now this one too...*pouts and grumbles*
Kapies: Don't worry I'll grow on you...or drive you insane. Which ever comes first.
Chapter 12: Early arrivals
Once Dúmenel and Nimorn where coaxed into taking something to cure their drunk state they joined every one for breakfast. As the plates where being cleared one of the guards entered the dinning hall.
" Hir nins!" He said and bowed stiffly. " The Edain...well...they are here, they stand before our gates right now."
Elrond stared at him as if it was some sort of joke." Of course they are and my daughter married a Edain King and will one day rule beside him." He laughed along with all others in the room at the absurdity of it, except for that guard.
"Hir nin will all respect I do not think you are taking me seriously. The Edain really are here. They traveled fast because they met no foul weather nor orc resistance."
Elrond now realized that the guard was NOT kidding. " Well then, let us go forth and welcome them to Imladris." Elrond then stood, and left the room. "Taraqwen come with me."
Taraqwen looked at him puzzled but followed nonetheless down the marble halls.
" I want you to take the twins and show Glorfindel around. I know it is your free day but I would greatly appreciate this."
Taraqwen laughed." Afraid that the Blonde Balrog Slayer won't stand a chance against your children? I wouldn't worry about them playing a prank on him. They seem to like him."
Elrond smiled at her. " True but old habits die hard. They wouldn't pull a prank on him now that would physically hurt him but- what is it you elven women say,' Boy's will be boys'. Besides I need someone to keep the boys away from the Edain while they settle in and we prepare the trade fair early."
" It's a shame you can't start class early today, is it not?"
" I don't think Glorfindel would appreciate that, seeing as he has no lesson plan. All though he did compare me to Thranduil, it would be the prefect revenge-" Elrond said more to himself than Taraqwen, a some what evil smile graced his features.
"Hir nin?" Taraqwen asked, not sure as to what her lord was talking about.
"Oh nothing. Nothing. You may leave."
Taraqwen nodded and headed back to the dinning hall.
End of chapter 12
