I'm so sorry! I had like a month of all these play rehearsals, then this month I was trying to catch up on my other fics! I don't own LOTR.
Chapter 11: Healing ......................
Elrond was pacing his study when he suddenly heard two voices. The voices of his two sons. Both were yelling urgently.
"Ada! Ada come quickly! ADA!" (father)
Elrond ran as fast as he could out of his study. He skidded to a stop as the full force of what he was seeing reached him.
Legolas was in Elrohir's arms, pale and shaking. A deep wound rested just below his shoulder, and it was pure black. Aragorn was lying in Elladan's arms. He had a long gash on his leg and another would on his arm.
"Take them to the healing ward," Elrond demanded as he rushed to his room to gather what was needed.
Elrohir and Elladan obeyed immediately. They rushed the two friends to the healing ward and gently set them down on beds. They watched helplessly until their father returned, and they stood awaiting instructions.
"You two tend to Aragorn. He's in a bad condition but you two know enough to help him. Use those herbs there," Elrond said, nodding to some already made paste as he began mixing different things together. "I'll tend to Legolas. We don't have much time."
The twins quickly made the paste. As Elladan finished it, Elrohir cleaned Aragorn's wounds and looked worriedly at Legolas. After the paste was applied, they bandaged the wounds and quickly went to their father who had finished the antidote and was trying to balance it in his hand and sit Legolas up at the same time out of haste.
Elrohir and Elladan quickly helped, and soon Legolas was swallowing the antidote. He coughed and gave a small shiver. He was lowered to the bed and all watched him in fear. Elrond sighed. "We've done all we can for the poison."
He went to work on cleaning and bandaging his wounds. After he finished, he collapsed in a chair and looked from a son to his best friend. They had been friends for the longest time. He remembered when they were children.
-Flashback- (WARNING! WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR EARTH SHATTERING)
Eleven year old Estel sat bored in his room. He looked over his balcony, the same place he had stood before the events leading up to him and Legolas meeting, then becoming friends. He had left though. He missed his friend terribly, and missed the fun they had had together. He smiled as he remembered turning his fathers and Legolas's fathers' hair purple. But that was over now. He was alone again.
He suddenly heard joyous yells from bellow. He looked but could not see, so nimbly jumped into the tree by his balcony and gazed though the branches. There, next to the small pond was Legolas and his twin brothers Elladan and Elrohir.
Estel gave a shout and jumped from the tree. Luckily Legolas had known where the shout had come from, and he managed to catch Estel, but they both ended up falling into the pond next to them.
The two boys emerged soaking wet and laughing. "It's wonderful to see you Legolas! What brings you here?"
Legolas stopped laughing and removed a lily pad from his head but the smile still remained. He was quite young for an elf, about eleven in human years. He suddenly grinned and dunked Estel under the water.
"Hey!" Estel yelled as he came up. His face held a grin though.
"That's for causing me to fall in the pond. You should know better then to jump from your balcony," Legolas said in a mock stern voice, shaking his finger as if an insulted parent. "And I thought I raised you so well."
Estel splashed Legolas playfully and then stated that he didn't jump from his balcony, he jumped from the tree.

As the three elves sat and waited, they heard the sound of approaching footsteps. They turned around to see Gandalf and Merry walk in side by side, Gandalf holding a limp figure they recognized as Pippin. Behind them was Frodo and Sam, and Gimli filed in last. All had nervous expressions on their faces.
"How are they?" Frodo asked nervously, peering at the two in bed.
"We think they'll live," Elrond said as he took Pippin's form from Gandalf. "Aragorn wasn't poisoned so should come around soon. Legolas has a rare poison. All we can do for him now is wait and hope he can resist the poisons call.
...............
Legolas was no longer being pulled toward the light, but he stood there, looking curiously into it. He could feel the pain in his wounds, and somehow knew the light would stop his pain. He began to stretch out his finger when he heard a yell.
It sounded familiar. And suddenly he heard words crystal clear, words that made him back away from the light.
"Legolas Greenleaf kyar uume vanne! Ni uva ras a sicil vaa nya indon! (Legolas Greenleaf don't you go! I will stick a dagger through my heart!)
Legolas recognized the voice as Aragorn's. That foolish human wouldn't do that would he? As he listened again he could hear heart- wrenching sobs coming from his beloved friend. He seemed to gain control of himself again, and turned toward the light. He glared at the thing that had almost caused his friend so much pain, and him so much misery before feeling a floating sensation.
Suddenly he was opening his eyes. His arm felt like it was being poked over and over with thousands of needles. He ignored the pain and looked up at his friends face. It was tearstained but his face broke into a large grin.
"Legolas! You're okay!"
Legolas smiled as his friend carefully hugged him, too overjoyed to care what anyone in the room thought. The four hobbits had crowded around his bed and he smiled seeing Pippin bandaged and all right again, cured from whatever he had gotten.
"Stubborn Elf will live through anything!" Gimli shouted but he was grinning and his eyes gleamed with unreleased tears.
Gandalf stood in the corner of the room smiling and nodded at Legolas.
Elladan and Elrohir were smiling as they stood next to Legolas's side and put a hand on his shoulder. "We thought you were gone," Elladan said sorrowly, yet smiled all the same.
"You should have seen Estel when he woke up though," Elrohir said grinning. "He shot out of that bed so fast everyone jumped. He rushed to your side and started yelling at you not to go and give in to the poison. He was really worried."
"When he woke up?" Legolas asked.
The rest of the fellowship began to explain what had happened after the Elven prince fell unconscious. Aragorn smiled at his father. If it wasn't for him Legolas would have been gone by now.
Awhile later Elrond told everyone to leave and give Aragorn and Legolas rest. He smiled at the two friends and led the others to their rooms.
The two sat in silence for a few minutes before Aragorn walked to his bed. He layed down, wanting to avoid his fathers lecture for as long as possible. He heard Legolas say something from his bed though.
"Hanna le."
Aragorn smiled and replied quietly before falling to sleep. "Lle creso," (Your welcome)

I did it! I finally updated. If I ever don't update for three weeks bug me with reviews until I update.
I'm not doing review responses because I want to get this up before I leave tommorow for a field trip camping and will be gone a few days. I'm leaving tommorow and I have to go to bed.
