----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"So that's what happened?" Legolas asked.

"Aye, I should have known that something like this would have happened, especially with the uh, herbs and the tonic." Elrond lied. He really was a good liar, well, sometimes.

"Well, there was no reason to be embarrassed, remember that one time when you guys gave me way to much tonic?" Legolas asked.

Estel chuckled. "Aye mellon-nin, I could never forget that day." He smiled. "The day that you ran around the house, in nothing but your leggings, your hair in a mess, claiming that the orcs are attacking any minute! It took atleast six Rivendell gaurds with the help of Glorfindel, Erestor, and the four of us to sustain you."

Legolas frowned at the 'incident.' He couldn't believe that they had given him so many herbs and teas, and tonics, yuck, that he would go around in a dazed stupor.

The three elves were unaware that Herenya had awakened until she laughed at Estel's 'remembering' of Legolas' 'incident.'

Elrond and Estel smiled, even Legolas. "So, how are you feeling my child?" Elrond asked.

"Fine." Herenya lied. Unfortunately Estel and Elrond could see through her little 'act.'

"Legolas, can you go and tell Glorfindel, Erestor, and the twins that she has awakened?" Elrond asked.

Legolas nodded then left the room.

"Fine?" Elrond asked. "Tell me what truly is wrong."

"There is nothing wrong with me...," Herenya trailed off. She felt the warm and comforting arm of her brother around her. She knew that he had stayed there all night.

"Nothing? Nothing at all?" Elrond asked.

"That's right." Herenya replied.

"So if I told you to get up and talk to Legolas, would you?" Elrond asked.

Herenya thought a minute. "Uh, yes. No. I am in some pain, especially humiliation." She smiled while leaning on her brother's shoulder. "I am tired as well."

"As I thought." Elrond smiled. "I am going to have the twins to get you some breakfast."

"Breakfast?"

"Aye, you've slept 'till this morning." Estel replied while covering his sister up with a blanket. Then leaning back so she could relax again. "Get some rest before the twins arrive." He whispered.

"Is Elladan allright ada?" Herenya whispered while closing her eyes.

This worried Elrond. Elves weren't supposed to sleep with their eyes closed. Even though she was blind! "Aye. Herenya. Are you having a head-ache?"

Herenya almost all the time had head-aches. When the orcs robbed her of her sight, she had begun to grow head-aches. "Aye. Just a slight one though."

"I will make you a tea for that after you eat your breakfast." Elrond replied while walking over to the herb table.

"Why?"

"Why? Why? You have a headache! That's why!" Elrond mused.

"Why do you have to mend every illness with herbs? Those yucky, bitter herbs that actually make people more sick then what they are!" Herenya sighed while yawning.

"I don't think she can stay awake long enough for breakfast." Estel whispered and smiled.

"She needs too. I want her too." Elrond replied while walking over to Herenya and motioned for Estel to sit up a little more. "You need to eat before you doze off again."

"But I am so tired!" Herenya sighed while sitting up and opening her eyes. She still felt the warmth of her brother's arm around her, but now she also felt the warmth of her father's smile.

Just then the door came open and Herenya heard five pairs of foot prints. "Legolas, Elladan, Elrohir, Erestor, Glofindel. What a lovely surprise!" Herenya smiled.

Glorfindel smiled. He knew that Herenya could not see it, but she could feel it. The same way that she could tell who was whom. Her other senses picked up where her lack of sight stayed behind. She could even tell the twins apart!

Elladan walked over and sat on the other side of the bed. He whispered somethng to Herenya, and she gave him a big hug. "It is allright gwardor nin." She whispered through tears.

"Hannad." Elladan replied while wrapping one arm around Herenya. "We have brought you some oatmeal, lembas, and honey." He then got up to get the tray.

She smiled. "Hannad." She soon felt the tray on her lap. She wasn't really hungry, so she shrugged it off. "Ada, can I wait and eat. I am really not that hungry."

"You need to regain your strength. Atleast eat some of the oatmeal." Elrond replied.

Herenya sighed. "Allright then. If there is no other way, then I guess I must." She found the spoon, then found the bowl. She dipped the spoon in the bowl of oatmeal, and took a bite of it. Trying not to be 'too-obvious' to Legolas. She sighed and closed her eyes after eating almost ten bites of it. She felt the tray being lifted off her lap, and she leaned on Estel.

"Sleep my child." Elrond whispered. He had already put the herbs in the oatmeal so his daughter wouldn't have to taste them as much. He smiled at her when she finally dozed off into the realm of herb induced unconciousness. He then looked at the awaiting faces of the six around him. "She'll be allright after the good rest that she will have. She should be up and about tommorrow." He smiled at the relieved faces of the six. "Aragorn, go to bed. You need your rest, I---"

"You will do nothing of the sort!" Elladan interruped while taking Aragorn's place on the bed. "You have been up all night as well. You will be heading off to bed, with not even a word, or shall I have your advisors send you?"

Elrond rolled his eyes knowing that he couldn't get away from one of the twins when they want something done. "Fine, fine." He muttered while walking out of the room.

Elladan smiled at his accomplishment. "There." He sighed while watching the others leave before he snapped at them too, he then looked down at Herenya.

"I am sorry. You know?" He sighed. "If I had known, I wouldn't have said anything, you know that, right?" He placed a kiss on Herenya's brow and smiled. "I remember the day that we first found you. You were always drawn to me more than anyone else..."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Elladan, do you hear something?"

"Yes Elrohir, I do believe that it is an evil." Elladan replied.

"Shall we go and look?"

The two brothers crept to the end of a hill and looked down, below, there was an orc encampment, but one lone figure stood out from the rest, an elfling. Elladan sighed. "Elrohir, I feared this." He whispered. The two made it closer. Seeing as the orcs were but a few, they decided to battle with them, and they came out victorious. Elladan walked over to the elfling and looked down on her in pity.

"Penneth." He whispered while kneeling beside her. He examined her wounds, they were fatal indeed.

The little one gasped and her eyes fluttered open at the impact of Elladan's touch.

"Be calm penneth, I am a friend." Elladan soothed while brusing back her dark hair.

The little girl wimpered and wrapped her little arms around Elladan's neck. She clung to him, and cried. He put her in his arms, and whispered soothing words in the elven tongue. None of this seemed to calm her. He remembered a lullabye that his mother sung to him when he was upset. He began to sing.

"My precious, my angel. You are special, very specail. You are safe when your in my arms..." Elladan's voice lowered and he looked down at the girl. He sighed. She was almost asleep, just needed a little more singing, but he could not bare to sing no more...,

"I won't let go, there will be no harm. I love you, my dearest angel, you are precious, very precious..." Elrohir filled in for Elladan and he walked over to the two.

"... I do not know what I could do without your love, near my heart, near my soul. Penneth, your love makes my heart grow. I love you, and I will not leave you. My precious angel..."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Elladan blinked back tears. He looked down at the elf that was once a young maiden in his arms. He smiled. "I love you Herenya." He placed another kiss on her brow and leaned closer to her, and soon left for the realm of sweet, blissful, sleep...

To be continued...
