Author's note: Sorry about the long wait, but college started again and I have work so things have been a little crazy for me, and between school and work my time has been pretty well eaten up. I'll update as often as I can. I also upped the rating on this story because of some language in this chapter. I might up it again later on (it won't go past pg-13) because I have some ideas that aren't G rated.
Chapter seven:
Legolas, Glorfindel, Jessica, and Liz walked down the halls of Rivendell and stopped at Adam's door. "What should we do to Adam?" Liz asked Jessica.
"I thought that we could just have him write sentences and have him confined to his room for the rest of the day."
"Oh, sounds good to me, but what are we going to do with the rest of the day?" Liz asked with an evil smirk.
"Arwen's holed up in her room so I thought we could keep her company." Jessica said in mock innocence.
"Keep her company? That's an interesting way of stating 'we are going to torment Arwen.' You wouldn't mind if I joined you?" Legolas inquired of the girls who shook their heads to indicate that they didn't mind.
Glorfindel rolled his eyes, "I'll go round up some fellow conspirators."
Legolas smiled in agreement and headed further down the hall. "We'll join you in a few minutes." He said over his shoulder, and Glorfindel followed him.
"Looks like we're in for a rather enjoyable afternoon." Liz remarked with a smirk. Jessica smirked back and knocked on Adam's door.
"Whaaa?" Adam asked as he poked his head out the door. "I was just taking a nap, so whatever it is I didn't do it."
"Oh have a guilty conscience do we?" Liz taunted.
"Elrond told us to take care of your punishment. That's why were here." Jessica calmly informed Adam. You know the look of 'holy-shit-I'm-so-gonna-die' that people have when they are being attacked by the big monster in the horror movie? That's about the same look that Adam had on his face when Jessica announced that she and Liz were in charge of his punishment. "Don't worry," Jessica continued. "We aren't gonna make you do anything too horrible." This of course did not, by any means, stay Adam's fears.
"We just decided to confine you to your room for the rest of the day and have you write 'I will not break into Jessica's room and steal the cameras or waste film ever again'." Liz declared.
"That's it?" Adam asked suspiciously, and the girls nodded. "Wait, how many times am I supposed to write that sentence?"
"Three hundred times sounds good to me." Jessica replied. Adam looked at the girls for a second, and then closed the door before they could change their minds.
Just as Adam had shut the door, Legolas and Glorfindel came back with Dunathion and Suradulinion. "Hello." Suradulinion greeted the girls.
"Good Morning." Dunathion greeted.
"Hi." Liz and Jessica said in unison.
"What do you say we gather in my room and decide just how we are going to 'entertain' Arwen?" Legolas proposed.
"Sounds good to me." Liz and Jessica quickly accepted. The others agreed and the group of elves walked down the hallway with a couple of very happy fan girls. They got to Legolas' room and he opened the door. Jessica and Liz nearly fainted. "Are you two okay?" Legolas asked as he noted their dazed expressions. "You can lay on my bed and rest if you want." Jessica and Liz probably would have fainted right there if Suradulinion and Dunathion hadn't given them a little push through the door.
"Looks like you got a couple of new admirers, Legolas." Glorfindel indicated the girls as they sat on Legolas' bed.
"Of course. I'm so handsome that lots of people admire me." Legolas bragged as he checked his appearance in the nearest mirror. It was at this moment that the girls noticed that there were quite a few more mirrors in Legolas' room than there actually needed to be.
"So, what's the game plan?" Suradulinion asked.
"We should dye Arwen's hair green." Liz suggested.
"I like the idea of dying her hair, but it would be more fun if we could dye it in someway that the color changes according to her moods." Jessica put in.
"That would be fun, too bad there isn't a way to do that." Glorfindel agreed.
"Yes, there is." Legolas countered. Everyone turned to him with a look of amazment and curiosity.
"Oh ho, how do you know this? I get it. Legolas, I always wondered why your hair was so blond. You dye it don't you?" Glorfindel teased.
"No, I don't dye my hair." Legolas defended himself as he unconsciously checked his hair in a mirror. "My father does." Everyone decided to keep their mouths shut on that one. There really isn't much one could say to that.
"Okay, then what do we need to do to get the dye?" Jessica continued.
"There are some plants and things that we'll need to gather. The only problem is that gathering the stuff could take us all day. We are also going to need time to make the dye. Arwen, as Liz and Jessica pointed out earlier, doesn't have a bathroom in her room, so she'll leave at some point. And, when she does we probably won't be here, so she might get some back bone and not go back to her room." Legolas informed everyone.
"We can take care of that. All we have to do is put a camera outside her room and she'll stay there." Liz announced.
"We would have to put a motion sensor on the camera so that it takes a picture every time she opens her door." Jessica added.
"Sounds good so far. Our next problem is getting her hair dyed." Suradulinion commented.
"Well, she's going to be in her room all day and just itching to come out right? Plus, she likes to take a bath everyday. What we could do is pour out her shampoo and replace it with the dye. How long does it take for the dye to take effect, Legolas?" Dunathion asked.
"Once the person goes into the sunlight, the dye is activated." Legolas answered.
"Are you sure she'll want to take a bath?" Glorfindel asked and both Suradulinion and Dunathion nodded. "We should have a way to make sure she takes a bath, just incase. Liz, Jessica, how well can you two act?"
"We've been in a few skits and such. We might be able to pull something off. What'd you have in mind?" Jessica gave as a response.
"If you two could act very apologetic and sympathetic with her situation, and offer to help her take a nice relaxing bath…." Glorfindel left it hanging. Everyone in the room looked at each other and smiled conspiratorially. "So, is everyone in agreement as to what we are going to do?" Everyone nodded. "Last thing to cover is what do we do if we get caught?"
"We don't get caught, and if we do I'll take sole and full responsibility." Legolas said. Jessica and Liz smiled happily at the apparent self-sacrificing attitude Legolas had.
"You only say that because if you get caught doing anything wrong no one's gonna do anything about it." Suradulinion commented.
"That makes this easier. He's the prince of Mirkwood, so if he takes responsibility we all get off, and they won't and can't do anything to him." Dunathion shrugged.
"So, everyone in agreement?" Legolas said and everyone nodded. "Then let's get operation Arwen's make-over started."
