A/N: Emily: I am writing this on Valentines Day after receiving one lame card from an ex who I really hoped had disappeared from the face of the planet, so do not expect any romance in this chapter! Not that I'm bitter or anything…
Disclaimer – Nope I don't own Legolas unfortunately. I have tried to convince Tolkien that Legolas would have a much better Valentines Day with me but he still refused and locked Legolas back up in his coffin. 'grumblegrumble.'
Chapter Four – Goodbye Kai.
"Legolas! Kalin!" The Rivendell twins enveloped the two elves in tight hug.
"Urm…Elrohir…Elladan…can't breathe!" Gasped Kalin.
The twins squeezed slightly tighter and finally let go.
"You two seem happy." Remarked Legolas straightening out his tunic.
The twins just grinned.
"Guys you seem a little…um…hyper today. Is everything okay?" Kalin backed away slowly as the twins began to giggle.
"Creamy cheesy cheesy cheese!"
"Legolas, are they normally like this?" Kalin asked nervously.
"Not usually, not since…Have you two been at your father's miruvor again?" Legolas joined Kalin a yard away from the grinning twins.
"Um…no I'm afraid this might be my fault." Legolas looked over the twins' shoulder and saw a gleeful looking Kai standing just behind them.
"Kai! What are you doing here? If you are here who is looking after the kids…Mirkwood, who's ruling Mirkwood! And what the hell did you do to the twins!"
"The twins are fine; well they will be when once the after effects wear off."
"Please tell me you did not drug the twins!"
Kai tied to smother a grin but failed miserably.
"You drugged the twins! Kai you're an irresponsible…"
"Calm down Legolas! Everything is under control!"
"Control! Where the hell are my children?"
"Mirkwood is in good fins, Xavier and Pierre are here with me and Ellette is being taken care of by Kalin wife." Kai shuddered slightly at the last word.
"Fins! You said fins!" Yelped Legolas.
"I did? Oh I meant…"
"Why did you say wife as if it was a bad disease!" Growled Kalin.
"I didn't!"
"Yes you did! I'm sick of this, every time anyone mentions Amaria you turn into a bachelor 101 lesson!"
"I'm not the one who betrayed the oath we made not to ever get married!" Retaliated Kai.
"Oath, I was seven when I made that! You really need to grow up!"
"Grow up! And become like you, tied down to the one elleth stupid enough to have you!"
"You little…" Kalin flew at Kai and before Legolas could stop him the darkling brothers were grappling on the floor.
"Why are you purple?" Questioned a dazed Elrohir.
Legolas stuck between whether to stop Kai and Kalin fighting or taking the twins to their father was saved from making a decision when a fuming Lord Elrond came storming down the path.
"Prince Legolas I demand that you remove your children and your Lieutenant from my valley!"
"Lord Elrond I'm so sorry, I had no idea that they would be here." Legolas winced as he spied Xavier and Pierre in the background chasing an unsuspecting maid across the courtyard.
"That may be so, but there is only so much I can take, I have lived through many wars, Elladan and Elrohir's wayward childhood and the constant jabbering from Emily and George, but all of those seem exceedingly peaceful compared to Kai and your sons! I suggest you take them home." Lord Elrond's temple was visibly twitching.
"I am afraid that is not possible Kalin and I are looking for…George."
"George! It is an impossible task, he is no where to be found. Do you not think I tried looking?"
"I have to find him."
"So be it, but I want them gone by tomorrow!" Elrond stepped over the still brawling Kai and Kalin and grabbed the twins, who were currently in an animated convocation with a tree, and dragged them away to the healing rooms.
"Kai!" Legolas grabbed his lieutenant and hauled him up against the recently engaging tree. "I am only going to say this once. You are to take the boys back to Mirkwood, you are to place Fiminur in charge and then you are to leave Mirkwood and never return."
"Don't you think you're being a little extreme!"
"I can't deal with you anymore Kai! You promised you wouldn't let me down. I trusted you. Until you prove that you are of some worth Mirkwood then I do not want to see you again!" Legolas let Kai go and took a step back from him. "I'm sorry Kai but this is how it has to be."
"If that is what you want, I will follow your last orders. It has been an honour serving you my lord." With that Kai went to look for Xavier and Pierre.
Legolas helped Kalin up, "I went too far didn't I?"
"We'll see. This may even bring Kai to prove himself, and then who know he might even get married!" Kalin tried to force a laugh but was unsuccessful. "Do you think the twins will be clear headed enough to help us find George?"
"I hope so. I don't want to give Lord Elrond anymore time to find reasons to yell at me. Do think he was this scary in the Matrix?"
"I heard that he knew Kung-fu."
"What's Kung-fu?"
"No idea." Kalin shrugged.
……
"You mean you want to come?" Asked Phian still confused by the fact that Ellette was talking to her.
"Of course! I heard you throw the best sleepovers in the Kingdom." Ellette gasped with as much joy as she could muster.
"You did? I always thought that you thought they were…um well…I remember the word lame was used."
"Lame! Wherever did you get that idea? I would love to come."
"Then that is settled. Oh I am excited now! I shall see you tonight then." Phian let out a small giggle that almost made Ellette want to wretch as she scuttled off down the corridor. She suddenly stopped and swirled round, "Oh do not forget to bring your cuddly toys!"
Ellette's face dropped 'Cuddly toys! How old does she think we are! And as for that laugh…She's like Woody Allen on crack!'
……
A/N: Emily: Yes I know it is short! But in my defence George didn't help with this one! So what does everyone think about Legolas and Kai? Please please review! Yeesh! Look you made me beg! Here are the thank yous:
Ayiicaalime – I may have to buy you a fish to make up for seeing Green Day more than once!
Lil Smartass – Well Legolas in leather 'pauses to wipe the drool off the keyboard' is a nice idea I have other vision for this story. I reckon Kalin will be a great Dad, and we have yet to meet his wife yet!
Poolbum – Seven ear piercings, one lip piercing! Kalin is going to be a dad, I am actually quite excited!
Limpet666 – Hmm Faramir? Well that is an idea…
