Meanwhile back with Thoron/Legolas
"Thoron, hold still!" Elrohir shouted.
"I don't think he can hear you!" Estel shouted back.
"Ada!" Thoron screamed again.
"Dan, what do you think is going on?" Elrohir yelled at his brother sitting across the bed.
"I think he's beginning to remember who he is, but I'm not sure. He's reacting like his father is near," Elladan replied.
There was a loud commotion coming from down the hallway, like someone was struggling to get away. The noise was getting louder and louder, and words were beginning to get clearer.
"Morchainttir, keep him still!" a voice shouted.
"I'm trying, he won't calm down!" another voice, who was most likely Morchainttir's yelled.
"Legolas, ion-nin, Legolas!" wailed another voice as it came into focus.
Estel ran to the doorway to see what all of the commotion was about. A bunch of elves trying to restrain another elf who looked exactly like Legolas. Except this elf looked like he was in mourning, from the tears in his eyes, to disheveled hair, and he was the one who was screaming. Estel was looking at Legolas's father, the Elvenking of Mirkwood. He turned around and ran back to help his brothers.
"Who is it, Estel?" asked Elladan.
"King Thranduil," Estel said abruptly.
"This isn't good, Dan," replied Elrohir.
Elladan only nodded. Thoron chose that minute to calm down, as the Mirkwood royal party dragged their King down the hall, totally oblivious to the room which held their long-lost prince. Thoron relaxed into the pillow he was on, and closed his eyes. Elladan thought he fell unconscious again.
"Ada," Thoron whispered, showing Elladan he was wrong, and proving a Lord of Rivendell incorrect for the second time in an hour.
Elladan, Elrohir, and Estel just stared at the prince. Just how much does he remember all of the sudden? Could his father's panicked voice been the key to unlocking Legolas's memories? Elrohir decided to test him.
"Legolas?" Elrohir whispered.
The elf in bed suddenly opened his eyes, showing total calm and awareness for the first time in five days. He sat up slowly and noticed the brothers in the room. He looked at each of them. "Dan, Ro?" he asked.
"Legolas?" asked Elladan.
For the first time in twelve years, a huge smile lit up the elf's face. "Who else do you think?"
Elladan just laughed, as he hugged the prince. Elrohir joined in the group hug. Estel sunk to the back of the room. Elladan looked up momentarily from the hug, noticing his little brother. "Your highness," Elladan teased, "I would like to introduce to you to Ro's and my little brother, Estel. You've met him, and yet you haven't." He gestured for Estel to come forwards, as the group hug fell apart.
Estel bowed formally as his father taught him to do. Legolas smiled but quickly removed it. "That isn't necessary, Estel. I abdicated, and got disowned in the process." Legolas replied gasping, as he put his head in his hands, and started to cry.
"I remember, I remember everything, including how I lost my memory." Legolas said quietly, in between tears.
"It will be okay, Legolas, I promise you." Elladan said.
"No it won't, you don't understand, none of you do."
"What don't we understand, Legolas?" asked Elrohir.
"Everything!" Legolas exclaimed as he got up and left the room.
"Legolas, where are you going?" Estel asked.
"I don't know, but your more than welcome to join me," Legolas said looking back, tears still pouring down his face.
"I don't want to be alone anymore," he said to himself more than anyone else.
All three sons of Elrond looked at each other. Elrohir went to get Legolas's weapons and together they left.
