A/N I would like to thank Raider-K for the idea for this prompt and Eldhoron for the prank idea for the bathtub
#46 Justice
It was a glorious summer day in the Valley of Imladris. The sun was at its peak, the birds were singing, and there was not a single cloud to be seen in the sky. Just the perfect day for a horseback ride, Glorfindel thought to himself as he headed out to the stable. It had been too long since he took a leisurely ride with Asfaloth and he was looking forward to riding his friend out in the open.
Inside the stables, voices could be heard as the golden-haired ellon made his way towards the stable. Glorfindel had not heard the voices nor seen a dark haired, mischievous ellon poke his head back in the stables. "Hurry Dan, Glorfindel is almost here, and I do not relish the idea of being caught by him," Elrohir said as he kept looking over his shoulder hoping Glorfindel would not walk in on them.
"I am done! Let us hide up in the rafters where we can watch without being seen."
Quickly the two brothers climbed the ladder and hid safely covered by a bale of hay. They barely concealed themselves when Glorfindel entered and walked over to Asfaloth. Saying a quick hello to his friend he put a saddle on and mounted. However, as he tried to situate himself, he noticed he was unable to move, and his bum felt wet. It was then he realized he had been pranked.
Up in the rafter's laughter could be heard as two faces appeared. "Elladan! Elrohir! What did you do to my saddle!?" Glorfindel screamed trying to get down, but no matter how hard he tried he was unable to.
"What is the matter Glorfy, can't you get down?" Laughed Elladan harder than ever.
Glorfindel, however, was not finding this funny, and with one strong pull, he managed to pull himself free feeling his riding trousers rip.
The twins laughed even harder almost doubling over when they heard his trousers tear. Glorfindel glared. "I am going to give you until the count of five to get out of my sight before I tear after you."
The twins' seeing Glorfindel's face turn beet red tore out of the stables faster than they ever ran before being followed closely by a fuming Glorfindel.
Several days later when all the excitement wore off, and Elrond was sure Glorfindel was not going to kill his sons, the twins' were on their way to bathe after a long day of training. When they entered the family bathing chambers, they found hot soapy water already drawn for them.
Elladan was the first to enter and then his twin. "Oh, this feels so nice," Elrohir sighed softly soaking his body.
"Oh, you can say that again."
Several minutes later Elladan let out a shriek. Elrohir shot a look over at his brother who was staring at his hands which were now stained black. "What in theā¦" Elrohir gasped, and he then looked at his hands to discover they too were stained black.
Behind closed doors, they could hear hysterical laughter. It was then they knew they had been pranked by Glorfindel. "Let that teach you a lesson not to prank me again," Glorfindel said through fits of laughter. Justice had been served.
