Chapter Four and a half: Uh oh...
The Twins shared a nervous look as they hurried down the hall with their father towards their sister's room. She had been silent since the first scream, and they were beginning to wonder what exactly had just happened.
I hope all is well. Elladan said to his brother.
I wonder what Legolas did... Elrohir pondered.
Hopefully nothing too horrible. Elladan said sternly.
Of course not. Elrohir said quickly. Legolas knows that we would surely kill him if he did anything that would harm our sister in anyway.
Elladan snorted. Doesn't stop him from doing anything stupid... he grumbled as the three Elves turned down a corner to find Arwen's door wide open. They all dashed inside to find Arwen standing their, glaring at her bed.
"What's wrong?" Elladan asked, placing an arm around her shoulder.
"Legolas." she growled, her voice low.
"What did he do?" Elrond asked, looking around the room.
"Snakes." Arwen hissed.
"Where?" Elrohir said, looking eagerly around.
"In my bed." she replied.
The Twins glanced at each other before going to their sister's bed and pulling back the covers. They jumped back in surprise to find that their sister was telling the truth.
"By Elbereth!" they gasped in unison. The snakes writhed around on the mattress at the sudden lack of a warmth and the bright light coming in from the window.
"Told you." Arwen said simply, crossing her arms.
"He didn't!" Elrohir insisted, realizing that the snakes were the exact ones that they had planted in Glorfindel's desk drawers.
"He did." the Evanstar replied. "And you know what that means?" she asked as her brothers covered up the snakes.
"What?" they chorused.
"This means war."
heh heh...betcha didn't think arwen had a mean bone in her. Just wait to Aragorn comes into the picture.
Oh, the reason this is chapter "four and a half" is becos it's a bit short. a lot short. but still...hope you all enjoy it.
