I would like to apologise for not updating. And I got my most reviews for
my last chapter so I am sorry if you have been waiting. I was sick again, I
get these dizzy spells and I'm not allowed to watch TV, go on the computer
or read! I can survive without TV and the computer but not reading is
bloody awful!!! So once again I am sorry and hope you continue to read this
story.
Another thing I wanted to say was that I hate this chapter! I had no idea
what to write and this is what I came up with, so feel free to flame this
chapter all you want!!
Ok I will shut up now! On forth to the chapter!
Nope hang on a second i won't. I'd just like to thank, Yavie Aelinel, LalaithoftheBruinen, Kaylie, Joee1, Gershwhen, Irish QT, Seeing- Spots, Grumpy and Valanya who were all knid enough to review. Thanks!!!!
Disclaimer: Nope nothing is mine!
Chapter5:
After breakfast Lord Elrond called to his three sons and their friend as they tried to make a quick escape from the dining- room.
"Listen to me, you four are not to set foot outside the gardens today. Not even an inch outside." This last statement was directed to Estel and Legolas who in turn glanced at each other and smiled. "Especially you two." Lord Elrond continued pointing at Elladan and Elrohir. "If I see you doing anything that would not be classed as relaxing you will not go tomorrow. I will send others in your place. And no arguing! Elrohir's ankle needs time to mend, so does Legolas' wrist and this will not happen if you go hunting or even for a walk because knowing you four a walk could turn out worse than a hunt!" The four friends just stared at Lord Elrond used to getting so many lectures. "Come to think of it, it would be wiser for you to stay in your rooms all day." He had gone too far this time.
"You do not honestly believe we would be able to stay in our rooms alone all day do you?" Asked Elrohir horrified at his father's suggestion.
"No." Sighed Elrond. "I do not. But please for the sake of your health and mine, stay inside, in the gardens."
There was silence for a second and then the four friends nodded in agreement. Turning they walked to the door.
"And please, can you leave your weapons here?" Elrond pleaded although he knew he should not have even asked.
"That is going too far and you know it Ada." Elladan said turning to his father who nodded and waved them out.
They walked through the door, along the long corridors and out into the courtyard. The sun shone brightly in the blue sky and this only served to dampen their spirits more. Elladan and Elrohir stopped and whispered quietly to each other. Pulling away they nodded and turned and start walking in the opposite direction. Curious, Estel and Legolas followed them. The twins stopped when they came to the stables.
"What are you two doing?" Estel asked suspiciously.
"We are taking the horses out for a ride. Why else would we be at the stables?" Answered Elrohir sliding open the door.
"I do not think Ada would class that as relaxing."
"Yes we know, but the most we will do is a trot. That can't hurt, can it?" Elladan said. "So are you two coming?"
Estel and Legolas looked at each other, for once not wanting to get into more trouble. Legolas pointed outside.
"I saw a tree and it looks extemely tempting to climb." He answered trying to look casual.
"Me too." Estel said nodding.
Elrohir snorted with the laughter.
"You expect us to believe that? You two have lost your nerve." With that last remark Elladan and Elrohir mounted their horses and trotted out of the stables. Estel and Legolas looked longingly after them.
"Come, let us go." Estel said breaking the silence, leading the way out of the stables. "So where is this tree that caught your attention?"
"Over there." Legolas answered pointing directly in front of them. The tree in question was the tallest tree in the garden.
"You do not expect to be able to climb that?" Asked Estel surprised.
"Mellon, I am a wood elf." Legolas spoke slowly as if to a child knowing it would annoy Estel grately. "What do you think we would do living in a forest? Search for a desert to walk through?"
Estel rolled his eyes, but smiled.
"It was a stupid question. I apologise. I knew you could climb trees but not ones so tall."
"Do not try and make excuses for your stupidity." Laughed Legolas turning from his friend and walking towards the tree.
Estel chose not to answer and followed his friend. When they came to the tree Legolas jumped up forgetting about his arm. He grasped onto a branch and the pain surged through him. He let go and fell on top of an unsuspecting Estel. This sent them both crashing to the ground.
"Are you ok?" Estel asked laughing.
"Yes. Are you?" Legolas answered embarrassed at what he had done.
"Fine, except for this elbow digging into my ribs." Legolas hearing this quickly got of his friend who, now having room to move was rolling around the ground in laughter.
"Oh shut up." Legolas said but start laughing also.
In his study Lord Elrond had witnessed the whole thing but decided against going out to them, instead laughing at the young elf's action. Well, young in elven terms.
A/N: Yes, I know. Dreadful chapter. But I hope it doesn't put you off the story and you keep reading. It will get better!! (I hope:) Well anyway. Please review and feel free to flame this chapter. I will use the flames to set this chapter on fire. (If it weren't in the computer) I somehow don't think the parents would be too happy if I set the computer on fire.
