Chapter 6: Screaming Kings
Elrohir went over to Elladan to wake him up. Elladan was on the floor, so Elrohir dragged him around the room a few times until he awoke. Legolas was told to carry the vile, so he nervously did.
Legolas was then forced to lead the way, he being the only one of the three knowing were his father's quarters where. Legolas nervously pushed open Thranduil's door, and inside was so dark Legolas could not even see.
"It's too dark... w-we should go back..." Legolas said, quivering.
"So? Let's go! It's never to dark for a prank!"
The twins entered the room and pushed a chair up against Thranduil's bed so they could reach his hair.
"Come on Legolas? Don't tell us you're too scared!" Elladan said softly.
"I'm not scared!" Legolas said, though he was shaking as he entered the room. He handed the vile to Elladan, who poured all of the contents in Thranduil's hair. All over Thranduil's hair, until he was satisfied with the color it was. Elladan jumped off the chair and Elrohir climbed up. Elrohir mixed the pink liquid in Thranduil's hair to be certain that it was completely covered in pink.
Elrohir jumped down, and Legolas climbed up, just to see his father. Thranduil was clutching a teddy bear that belonged to Legolas (Thranduil was so lonely at night without his mate that he got fond of having Mister Teddy to keep him company), and his hair was bright pink. As Legolas got off the chair, he hit a container of ink. It was opened, for a lazy Thranduil wanted to go to bed and did not bother to shut it, and it fell.
It's contents, blue ink, and covered Thranduil's pale face. The twins giggled.
"Good one Legolas!"
"We would not have thought to do that! It's brilliant!" Elladan grinned. Legolas had not done this on purpose, but enjoyed being praised for this.
The three ran back to their rooms where they slept, until they where awoken in the morning by a loud scream.
"MY HAIR! MY FACE!" Thranduil shrieked as he stared at his reflection. "My... beautiful... hair... ruined...!" Thranduil gasped, running his fingers down his pink hair. Elrond came running when he heard his friend's scream and he gasped as he saw the pink-haired elven king.
"ELLADAN! ELROHIR! LEGOLAS!" Elrond boomed. The three elflings came and burst into giggles at the sight of the elven king. Anger was rising in Thranduil and he sat down to control himself.
"Did you three do this?" Elrond asked sharply, pointing to the raging elven king.
"No..." Elladan giggled.
"That settles it. You three did this." Elrond said, frowning.
"Did you all do this?" Thranduil asked.
"Yes." Each elfling said.
"Who put the coloring in my hair?" Thranduil asked.
Elladan and Elrohir raised their hands.
"And who put this... ink... all over my face?" Thranduil asked. The twins both pointed to Legolas.
"It was an accident..." Legolas whispered.
"Do not worry Thranduil, I will see to it right away that the twins are punished. I will leave you with Legolas."
Thranduil looked down at Legolas and then pulled him up onto the bed beside him.
"Tell me exactly what happened." Thranduil ordered.
"The twins wanted to play a prank on you. I said we'd get caught, but they said I was jus' scared. So I had to help. I juiced the fruits for them. But when I climbed up the chair too see what you looked like with pink hair, I knocked the ink by accident." Legolas said sadly.
"Ai Legolas... You should not have forced yourself to do this." Thranduil said.
Thranduil lay Legolas down on his lip, and gave the elfling a few good slaps on his backside. When he was done, Legolas embraced his father.
"I'm sowwy." Legolas whispered, clutching his father's robes. Legolas was kissed on his brow and then released. Legolas went to find the twins. Elrohir was sitting by the door to Elrond's quarters.
"What did your ada do to you?" Legolas asked.
"He said when I went back to Imladris I have extra history lessons with Glorfy." Elrohir said sadly.
"My ada slapped my bum." Legolas said, rubbing his backside in hope to ease the pain.
"Elladan's is being punished now." Elrohir said sadly.
Elladan came out of the room, biting his lip.
"Alight you two, go apologize to Thranduil." Elrond ordered.
Elrond bent down to see Legolas.
"Awe you going to punish me?" Legolas asked nervously. "No. Did your ada punish you?"
"Yes."
"You did not deserve to be punished. Elladan told me the story and he said you where scared but they forced you to help." Elrond said. "I was NOT scared!" Legolas pouted. "Legolas, I know you where scared. But it's all right, your just a little elfling. If I was your age, I would have been scared too." Elrond said, running his fingers down the elfling's hair.
