A/N: I do not own LOTR, I'm to poor for that. But if Billy Boyd wants to come and be my personal slave I don't mind…^_^. Second of all! Thank you so much for all the wonderful reviews! Replies are at the end of the chapter. A little side note, do not ask me to translate my elvish in the story because I will not. Once again thank you! As you know by now I changed my name, because it is so long you can all just call me Naur which is Elvish for fire.- Naur
Possessed Banishment
Chapter 2
The next morning…
Elrond sipped his morning tea thoughtfully when his twin sons came into the dining hall.
"Amrun Ada…" Both said sitting down. Tea and a plate of fruits was brought out to them. They had just started eating when the door to the hall opened and they all looked up knowing it was to early for Estel to be out of bed. Legolas gave them a small smile as he entered the room.
"Morning Legolas," Elrond said watching his face and movements for any sign of emotion but he had been brought up to not show emotion around others and that is what he did now. Elladan and Elrohir were just staring back and forth at their father and Legolas before jumping up to tackle Legolas. Elrond smiled seeing the smile that appeared on Legolas's face even though it did not reach his eyes.
"Legolas! When did you get here? We weren't expecting you!" The twins exclaimed together. They helped Legolas up wanting answers.
"That is why they call it a surprise mellon nins. You of all people should know something about surprises," Legolas told them sitting at his normal spot at the table. The twins blushed remembering all the surprises that they had pulled over the years. Legolas gave a light nod to the elf that brought him tea and a plate of fruit before like Elrond sipping it thoughtfully.
"Legolas I'm sure the twins would be happy to loan you some of their clothes until we can get a tailor to come and make you some new ones seeing that you only came with what you have on," Elrond explained taking in his still dirty appearance.
"Hannon le Lord Elrond, it will be nice to clean myself up and then get into some fresh clothes," Legolas replied. Elrond nodded and looked to his sons.
"Ion nins would you please go and have some water warmed up then taken to Legolas's room so that he may get cleaned up?" Elrond asked, but his tone did not give them room to argue. They nodded and quickly stood leaving the two alone.
"Hannon le for not saying anything Lord Elrond," Legolas said quietly. Elrond smiled standing, he walked behind Legolas and put a hand on his shoulder.
"It is not my place to tell, however Lord Glorfindel and I will require your presence a little later to get the whole story," Elrond told him. Legolas nodded and stood.
"I guess I will go clean up then," He said and walked out the door back to his room.
*****
When Legolas got back to his room Elladan and Elrohir were poring the last bucket of warm water into a tub that had been moved into his room by some other elves.
"You look tired mellon nin, come on get in and we'll help," Elladan told him. Legolas gave them a look knowing they were up to something. They returned the look and he shrugged slowly taking off the tunic Lord Elrond had given him the night before. The twins shared a look when they saw their friend's body, Legolas was normally thin and pale but he was even more so now, you could actually see his ribs but they made no comment knowing he wouldn't tell them just yet.
Legolas sighed as he relaxed in the warm water, it felt so good to finally be able to relax. Water was poured over his head and he could feel Elladan's strong but gentle hands rubbing the shampoo into his head and Elrohir washing his arms and hands with soap. He relaxed even more letting his shoulders sag sinking further into the water. The twins shared a glance knowing he was relaxed enough almost to the point of sleep and would answer their questions easily.
"How did you get here from Mirkwood mellon nin?" Elladan asked quietly not wanting to brake Legolas out of his trance like state.
"Im bruniant ann-lend," Legolas answered. The twins shared another glance that wasn't the answer they had wanted. They were about to ask another question when Legolas spoke again. "A gwannen mbar nin ah baleh pethan nin adar a o hon an nin." With that he sagged more in the water and his eyes became unfocused.
"Well that explains it…a little I guess. We should ask ada what he knows," Elladan whispered as he slowly washed the shampoo out of his friend's hair. Elrohir nodded and slowly lifted Legolas out of the tub not wanting to wake him. They both dried him off, then put him into a sleeping shirt and back into bed. Closing the curtains to the balcony and windows to keep the light out and lowering the candle they left slowly closing the door behind them. They looked at Legolas's sleeping form one last time and both whispered,
"Quel kaima, mellon nin." With that they closed the door and heading to their father's study knowing that was where he and Glorfindel would be.
*****
"What could be going on in Thranduil's mind that he would banish Legolas?" Glorfindel questioned.
"I cannot tell you mellon nin, this puzzles me just as it does you…" He started but stopped as there was a knock at his door. "Minna!" He called. The door opened and his sons came in.
"We need to speak with you ada…" Elladan said.
"…about Legolas," Elrohir finished. Elrond sighed knowing it was only a matter of time…or minutes in the twin's case that they found out what had happened.
"What do you know?" Elrond asked leaning back in his chair.
"Well we just helped give Legolas a bath, we waited until he was really relaxed and then asked him how he got here from Mirkwood, we didn't get the answer we wanted but it worked," Elladan replied.
"And the answer was?" Elrond questioned.
"Im bruniant ann-lend, A gwannen mbar nin ah baleh pethan nin adar a o hon an nin," Elrohir repeated his friend's words. Elrond sighed and rubbed his hand over his eyes.
"What he said is true…Legolas came here late last night after the rain had stopped, he has brought with him very…disturbing news. Ion nins Legolas has been banished from Mirkwood by his father," Elrond explained. The twins gasped and stood their mouths wide open looking between their father and Glorfindel.
"Mani marte?" They both asked.
"That we do not know…but I am sure we will find out, in time…" Glorfindel told them.
"Glorfindel is right, this has been very hard on Legolas. It would be better as to not press him about the matter. We should wait until he is ready to tell us what happened. For now…where is Legolas now?" Elrond asked.
"Asleep in his room," Elrohir answered.
"For now we just let him be and once he is ready, we question him," Elrond told them. They all nodded and left him to be alone with his thoughts.
*****
"This is my son, Legolas Thranduilion, Crown Prince of Mirkwood. Legolas say hello to Elrond half-elven," Thranduil told him squeezing his sons shoulder. Legolas glanced up at him and then at Elrond, then back at the ground.
"Suilad Lord Elrond, gerin galu govad-le," He said in a quiet voice and bowed his head. Elrond was to say the least surprised, he had expected the son of Thranduil to call him half-elven as well.
"Suilad young prince it is a pleasure to finally meet you," Elrond said smiling at him.
"Lords Elladan and Elrohir!" A guard called as the twins walked out of the main doors.
"Ah! King Thranduil allow me to introduce my sons Elladan and Elrohir," Elrond told him putting a hand on each of his sons shoulders.
"It is a pleasure young lords, Legolas say hello to Elrond half-elven's sons," Thranduil said without looking down.
"Suilad," Legolas whispered keeping his eyes to the ground. Elrond couldn't believe how shy this young elf was, suddenly he got an idea.
"Ion nins, why don't you take Legolas a show him around Imladris. Leave Thranduil and I to discuss some things," Elrond encouraged looking down at his sons hoping they would get what he was saying. The twins looked up and then back at Legolas who was still staring at the ground and they heard their father's words in their head. "So him around and open him up some, but take it slow and don't do anything dangerous." They smiled and before anyone could do anything they grabbed Legolas hands pulling him from his father's grasp and pulled him towards the gardens laughing. Thranduil smiled as he saw the panicked look on Legolas's face.
"Don't worry Thranduil, my sons will not do anything dangerous," Elrond told him.
"We can only hope but actually it would be better if Legolas experienced something a bit dangerous, he has been to sheltered during our time in Mirkwood," Thranduil replied.
"He is but 200 is he not?" Elrond question surprised as they walked to his study.
"Indeed but you remember that spiders and other foul things have made their home in our forests," Thranduil answered taking a seat in Elrond's office.
"Which is one of the reasons as to why we are here," Elrond said sitting across from Thranduil.
"Yes let us discuss this treaty," Thranduil told him. Elrond nodded but before they started both heads turned to the open window hearing the laughter from outside. The Lord of Imladris smiled hearing his sons but also another light voice.
TBC…Next chapter, a look into Thranduil's mind…I think. ^_^ REVIEW!
