Chapter 4 Touching the Heart 5 days later in Mirkwood
Tho`nnas entered the throne room where now only Thranduil and Oropher were. Tho`nnas tried swallowing his fear as the two imposing figures laid their eyes upon him. They were really not going to like his news.
"My lords," Tho`nnas said softly. "The Lord of Rivendell had kidnapped the Prince Legolas."
Oropher sat straighter in his thrown, blue eyes ablaze. Tho`nnas remembered that the young prince had the same glare. Thranduil's eyes widen and he jumped up from his seat by his father.
Oropher laid a hand on his son's arm, making him sit back down. Reports of the hunting party's deaths had come back to Mirkwood. The only thing that puzzled them was that they did not find Legolas' body, and now they knew why.
"When I left Elrond was questioning him," Tho`nnas continued. "My lord what do you wish us to do?"
Oropher closed his eyes for a minute and sighed. "We cannot do anything for right now, for we do not know if Lothlorien will join in this war, or who they will join if they do."
With a nod Tho`nnas left the two royals alone.
"That's it? You're just going to let that no good half-breed interrogate your grandson? You're just going to leave him there?" Thranduil had once more jumped out of his chair and directed his anger at Oropher.
Oropher looked at his son for a moment and then sighed. "If we do anything just think what Elrond will do to him. Believe me I wish there was something we could do, but anything we do might put him in danger. Would you want that?" Thranduil was surprised when he saw a single tear fall from his father's eye.
"I'm sorry father."
*****
Elrond had long ago stopped questioning Legolas and it was now the middle of the night.
He stood in his room wondering. Glorfindel had told him that his enemy's son had touched his heart, as well as the twins. Elrond was now wondering if that frighten little creature had also been able to touch his heart.
"My friend, you must quite sulking about. It's not a very elven lord thing to do."
Gil-galad stood at the doorway to the balcony overlooking the gardens.
"How can you always do that?"
"Do what?"
"Just forget it."
"Alright. So, I heard you questioned the prince."
"He didn't tell me anything."
"He's too frighten. From what I heard the little one saw his guardian die, then was kidnapped, then taken away from the two people that protected him, and finally interrogated by an elf lord."
"So, what you mean is that he's asleep?"
"Yes."
"I wish I had not done that to him. How could I have been so lowly?"
"So he has touched your heart as he has Glorfindel's, the twins, and mine?"
"Yours?"
"Go look at him when he's sleeping. He looks so innocent and venerable."
"Do you have to make me feel guilty?"
"What else am I suppose to do, besides watch your back in battles, and you really need someone to watch you back."
Elrond just sighed and closed his eyes. He immediately opened them when a scream reached his ears.
Gil-galad and Elrond both ran down the hall toward Legolas' room, for it was the small child that had screamed.
They opened the door to find the elfling still asleep, yet thrashing about madly in his bed.
"I'll go get a sleeping drink," whispered Gil-galad, turning and leaving Elrond with the prince.
Elrond went over to the bed and took the small child into his arms. Legolas awoke at the sudden movement. He struggled to get out of the lord's arms, yet stopped when Elrond laid a hand on his head and spoke to him in elfish. Elrond was relived when Legolas stopped his struggling, yet the child was still mumbling to himself. Elrond felt a lock of his hair being pulled and looked down to see that the prince had taken his hair in hand.
Gil-galad and Glorfindel just watched this and then silently left knowing that everything would be alright.
*****
The next morning Legolas woke up to find that Elrond was still in his room, but before he could say anything the twins burst into the room and with angry expressions, but they were failing miserably at keeping a straight face. "We heard you woke up half of Rivendell last night." Elladan was trying very hard not to laugh but was failing at that too.
"You need to be punished for that." At these words the twins both raced toward Legolas and started a tickling war. After about only 30 seconds they were all wrapped in the sheets and Legolas had convinced Elrohir to go after Elladan.
Gil-galad walked in and raised an eyebrow. "I think you four are missing breakfast. (Elrond had not left the room because he thought the fight was too funny to miss.) Elrond just walked out and left the twins to a bemused high king. Legolas got up and was following Elrond before anyone could protest. Gil-galad raised an eyebrow at the twins who were now going bright red. Gil- galad just sighed. "Go get breakfast and make sure that your little friend doesn't do anything."
*****
When Gil-galad entered the dinning hall with Glorfindel he wasn't surprised to see the twins shouting at each other, and Elrond hanging his head. He was a little surprised though when Legolas popped up from under the table. Unfortunately for him some eggs that Elrohir was throwing at Elladan hit him. Legolas then took his plate and threw it directly in Elrohir's face. Gil-galad ducked as Elrohir threw the rest of his plate at Legolas, who had run for cover behind Glorfindel.And thus started the food fight.
*****
Three hours later the twins were cleaning up the dinning hall, while Legolas just sat on the table watching them. Elrond raised an eyebrow when he came in and saw the twins. They didn't notice his arrival but Legolas did.
"This is their punishment for getting the jelly in Gil-galad's hair." Elrond had to try his best to hold back laughter and saw that Legolas was doing the same.
"Oh, just go ahead and laugh," both the twins said in unison. Their words were followed by a loud shout as Elrohir fell over a wire, which set a buck of water down on Elladan's head, followed by a bag of flour. "LEGOLAS!" they both yelled.
"Looks like you two have more to clean up," Elrond said in a bemused voice. "Legolas, if you would come with me. Gil-galad and I have something we need to talk to you about."
After they left Elrohir turned to his brother and asked, "How could Legolas do that if he was with us the whole time and doesn't know where the kitchens are?"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Mordor (Mwhahahaha, had to do that.)
"My lord, we are ready."
"Good, we will strike soon. The child, Legolas, he must die."
"My lord, may I ask why we need to kill him? He is just a child after all."
"I have seen that I will lose my ring, and the elf will be one to help destroy it. If one thing is changed then all will fall into my hand."
"May I ask what ring, my lord Sauron?"
"You will see, you will see."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Ok bad place to end, but hey. Legolas will make a choice in the next chapter that will change everyone's lives. But do be warned I'm not going to be able to update this story for a while.
